This is session number two of the oral history interview with Dr. Steven Diner, in Newark, New Jersey. This is Donald Koger. Shaun Illingworth: This is Shaun Illingworth, and thank you very much for having us back. Steven Diner: My pleasure. SI: Last time, we left off with your becoming the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences here in Rutgers-Newark. How do you get settled in a job like that? How do you determine what are the best courses of action? What do you see as the number one priorities? SD: Well, I came with a very clear idea of what I wanted to accomplish. Obviously, as dean, you oversee all kinds of things, but my overall objective, was how do we take advantage of our location in downtown Newark to strengthen Arts and Sciences? I did a number of different things along those lines. One of the most important, I began having departments shape their recruiting of new faculty around a couple of broad interdisciplinary areas. One was cities, urban life, et cetera. The other big one was race, ethnicity, immigration, and group identity. The reason for the second, of course, was that Rutgers-Newark had already been ranked for years as the most diverse campus in America, by U.S.

    ENRICHING PLACE 2013 NJ HISTORY AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION CONFERENCE June 6, 2013 | www.njpreservationconference.org N EWARK MUSEUM| NEWARK NEWARK MUSEUM Newark Welcome to the 2013 New Jersey History and Historic Preservation Conference at The Newark Museum! Enriching Place, the theme of this first combined History and Historic Preservation Conference is an evocative phrase for New Jerseyans. After witnessing the power and destruction of Hurricane Sandy last year, we are all more aware of how important place is. How important landmarks are as repositories of our shared experiences. How we use buildings and sites from our history to map a road to our future. This year’s program features author Tony Hiss who will speak to the idea and reality of place and how people experience it. His remarks will lead us into a full day of classroom sessions, tours, exhibits and workshops that will educate us about the details of preservation and accreditation, examine the necessity of disaster planning and recovery, and expand our understanding of special places in Newark, on the Raritan Waterfront and at the Statue of Liberty. During the day please visit with the sponsors and vendors in the exhibit area. It is the sponsors’ financial support for the History and Historic Preservation Conference that is vital in making this a self-supporting event. Best wishes for a successful conference!

  • REFLECTIONS END of YEAR REPORT 2016 These Efforts Are Dedicated to the Late Dr
    REFLECTIONS END OF YEAR REPORT 2016 These efforts are dedicated to the late Dr. Robert Curvin and Dr. Clement Alexander Price. 3 LETTER FROM THE CHAIR JUNIUS WILLIAMS, ESQ. Newark Celebration 350, Chairman It has been an incredible honor to be selected by Newark Celebration 350 to serve as chairman for this year-long salute to our city’s past, present and future. It was with pride and humility that I stepped up to realize the vision of the late Dr. Clement Price, Newark’s foremost historian and tireless booster, who first conceived of this celebration as an occasion to take stock of our challenges and hopes. After deliberation, the Board agreed upon a primary objective – to assure that all citizens would have an opportunity to participate in and be supportive of this celebratory initiative. I believe we succeeded with an expansive calendar of more than 150 events, many planned by the people, that reached citizens of all ages, cultures and faiths in every ward of our city. We have celebrated with young artists of our schools, with great jazz performers on our city’s premier stages and with poets from across North America and with business leaders who were our generous sponsors. We shared the food, music and culture of African-American, Portuguese, Ecuadorian, Brazilian, Latino and Irish communities. We’ve explored the historic contributions of Jewish families and Puritan founders, of women and military heroes. It’s been an astonishing year. A city that can claim a vibrant diversity like ours already can count itself rich in resources, energy and pride.

There’s a part of my job I am particularly fond of, and I wanted to share it with you. I make it a habit to meet all of NJPAC’s new employees, from senior hires to paid interns, within 30 days of their start date. These get-togethers allow me an opportunity to know—at least a little bit—the brothers and sisters who comprise the NJPAC family, and prove to them that the professional curmudgeon in the corner office isn’t such a tough guy after all. More often than not, these are the most inspiring meetings of the day for me. I recently met Alexis Almeida, the latest member of our Arts Ed team.

But that implies public service is something optional or voluntary. I think the late Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm got it right when she defined service as “the rent you pay for room on this Earth.” Serving the greater good is an obligation, not a good deed. This year’s Provost’s Report focuses on Rutgers- Newark’s service to its many publics.As an institution of higher education, we are not unique in this mission; indeed, service is at the heart of virtually any university’s raison d’etre. But the qualities that stamp this campus, and set it apart from other institutions, enable us to serve society in very special ways. global role in the years ahead.

  • The Jim Crow North: Segregation and Agency in New
    Te Jim Crow North Research Article Winner of the 14th Annual Graduate History Symposium Best Paper Prize, University of Toronto, 2018 Te Jim Crow North: Segregation and Agency in New Jersey Beaches and Swimming Pools Jason Romisher Simon Fraser University A common misconception is that Jim Crow practices in the United States were primar- ily a southern phenomenon. One theme that has emerged in recent scholarship is that public facilities were operated on an exclusionary basis in many northern areas until concerted campaigns in the mid-twentieth century fnally gained legal equality for Af- rican Americans. New Jersey is a particularly interesting northern state to examine Jim Crow practices because of the complex history of race-relations in the state that have made it one of the most segregated places in modern America. A look at access to swim- ming facilities in New Jersey brings this reality into focus. For example, African Ameri- cans in Atlantic City were confned to one unmaintained section of the beach dubbed Volume 7, Issue 1 7, Issue Volume ‘Chicken Bone Beach’ and some lakes also had racially separate beach areas. Despite the 1 7, Issue Volume 8 achievement in 1949 of a constitutional amendment banning discrimination in New 9 Jersey’s public spaces, African Americans continued to be efectively barred by whites from some activities through informal practices. One strategy that whites used to con- tinue segregationist practices was the creation of private swimming clubs, which also fostered class-based discrimination. Tis paper makes extensive use of primary source Past Tense Past Tense Past accounts and unpublished oral interviews to explore the acts of agency demonstrated by both individual whites and African Americans over the contentious spaces of beaches and swimming pools.
