    “Forgotten by God”: How the People of Barren Island Built a Thriving Community on New York City’s Garbage ______________________________ A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Department of History Brooklyn College ______________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts By Miriam Sicherman Thesis Advisor: Michael Rawson Spring 2018 Table of Contents Abstract 1 Acknowledgments 2 Introduction 3 Chapter 1: Early History, Landscape, and Population 22 Chapter 2: Outsiders and Insiders 35 Chapter 3: Work 53 Chapter 4: Recreation and Religion 74 Chapter 5: Municipal Neglect 84 Chapter 6: Law and Order 98 Chapter 7: Education 112 Chapter 8: The End of Barren Island 134 Conclusion 147 Works Cited 150 1 Abstract This thesis describes the everyday life experiences of residents of Barren Island, Brooklyn, from the 1850s until 1936, demonstrating how they formed a functioning community under difficult circumstances. Barren Island is located in Jamaica Bay, between Sheepshead Bay and the Rockaway Peninsula. During this time period, the island, which had previously been mostly uninhabited, was the site of several “nuisance industries,” primarily garbage processing and animal rendering. Because the island was remote and often inaccessible, the workers, mostly new immigrants and African-Americans, were forced to live on the island, and very few others lived there. In many ways the islanders were neglected and ignored by city government and neighboring communities, except as targets of blame for the bad smells produced by the factories. In the absence of adequate municipal attention, islanders were forced to create their own community norms and take care of their own needs to a great extent.

  • Running Head: the NEW NORTH JERSEY The
    Running head: THE NEW NORTH JERSEY The New North Jersey: Why we need regional planning Andrew R. Herrera Ramapo College of New Jersey THE NEW NORTH JERSEY 2 Abstract Research will focus on the issue of regional planning for greenhouse gas reductions and climate change resiliency in the northern New Jersey region. This paper argues that sound regional planning can provide the guidance to ensure land use and transportation law significantly reduce carbon emissions and help societies prepare for stronger or more frequent extreme weather events through fair and equitable solutions. This paper will advance the case that as the federal government retreats from aiding planning programs in places like New Jersey, the state will need to develop new regional planning programs focusing on New Jersey issues. It will inspect the potential losses to resilient planning should the federal government cut its domestic spending, as is currently proposed, and search for potential policy solutions by analyzing plans from external institutions such as the Regional Plan Association (2017) and Together North Jersey (2015). The documents reviewed argue that the loss of federal aid may be irreplaceable due to the difficulties of cooperating across planning jurisdictions, such as towns, counties and states. THE NEW NORTH JERSEY 3 Introduction Climate change presents two substantial problems for modern societies. The first is that they must reduce their carbon emissions from industry and daily life in order to mitigate further increases in the earth’s temperature. The second is that because of the gradual rise in temperature which has already begun, societies will need to prepare their infrastructure and organization to be resilient against stronger storms, more extreme weather, and sea level rise.
