I have lived in Manhattan Beach for over 20 years. How my grandparents lived or what they did does not reflect me or my feelings. My grandparents told stories but gave advice on how to make a better tomorrow. Change the past and look forward. We worked hard and made them proud. We as a city need to do the same. Look to tomorrow our future and make this city proud of who we will become.

Ensure you trust this sender before clicking on any links or attachments. I strongly oppose any sort of resolution. The Bruce’s Beach incident happened 100 years ago and viewing through today’s cultural values does not help our city. Any sort of apology or acknowledgement now risks our city and it’s current residents for having to direct hard earned tax dollars toward resolving whatever legal action follows. Manhattan Beach of 100 years ago certainly was not the same as Manhattan Beach of today. But why target Manhattan Beach for a giant scarlet R now? To quote the infamous bank robber, Willie Sutton, when asked why he robs banks….because that’s where the money is. I suspect that’s why the radical left is targeting our little city…that’s where the money is. Drop it. Move on.

Ensure you trust this sender before clicking on any links or attachments. Dear Manhattan Beach City Council Council Members, As a forty‐five‐year resident homeowner in Manhattan Beach, I never thought I could be so insulted, shamed, and outright flabbergasted as by the recent actions of the City Council members on the Bruce’s Beach Task Force. You were all elected by the residents of this city and we trust you to serve, protect, lead, and defend the city. I highly doubt that your oath of office states, directs, nor gives council members any legal right to work outside the mandates of a given committee or group, nor that it supports efforts to slander, defame, libel, and/or make every attempt to mislead the residents of the city; nor purposefully set about to breed unrest, division, antagonism, and/or create a toxic living environment driven by personal motives. It seems quite questionable that the current actions of those members are of their own design. It they were, these issues would have been raised to this level years ago. To myself and many fellow residents, it appears to us as if these members have chosen to bow to and cast their lots with influencers and agitators from outside our city who call for the residents to issue an “apology” for the actions of people who lived a hundred years ago and the Task Force seems to think they should do the speaking on our behalf. No, in this matter, they do not speak for me. In this matter, they do not represent me and I protest their thinking they have some right to do so without knowing my, or any other resident’s for that matter, thoughts or opinions on the issue. What happened a hundred years ago, two hundred years ago, to so many countless thousands upon thousands of people of EVERY racial group was wrong and the city (and therefore, the county as well) actually addressed this one, singular, issue years ago. (I can’t help but wonder why hasn’t there been even the slightest effort made to discuss or address any other such issue; such as what happened to Japanese residents during WWII, for example?) Manhattan Beach, and her residents, is being openly defamed and portrayed as a hotbed of systematic and institutional racism. If this were true, then we residents should really be looking at our City Council Members (who have represented, lead, and guided the residents of the city as well as directed the implementation and enforcement of, and adherence to the laws and regulations of the City, County, State, and Federal Government) and be asking ourselves are YOU the singular, focused, driving (political) force that has been promoting and engendering this kind of behavior and attitude? I do not think so, but is that how you’ve seen yourselves all these many years? Put this proposed action before the residents for a vote and I would (and will) not support your issuing ANY form of “apology” or “resolution” in this matter and I dare say neither would or do a majority of the voters. I respectfully ask you cease any efforts to consider the issuing of any form of “apology” or “resolution“ regarding this matter. Thank you for your consideration.

  • Negroes Are Different in Dixie: the Press, Perception, and Negro League Baseball in the Jim Crow South, 1932 by Thomas Aiello Research Essay ______
    NEGROES ARE DIFFERENT IN DIXIE: THE PRESS, PERCEPTION, AND NEGRO LEAGUE BASEBALL IN THE JIM CROW SOUTH, 1932 BY THOMAS AIELLO RESEARCH ESSAY ______________________________________________ “Only in a Negro newspaper can a complete coverage of ALL news effecting or involving Negroes be found,” argued a Southern Newspaper Syndicate advertisement. “The good that Negroes do is published in addition to the bad, for only by printing everything fit to read can a correct impression of the Negroes in any community be found.”1 Another argued that, “When it comes to Negro newspapers you can’t measure Birmingham or Atlanta or Memphis Negroes by a New York or Chicago Negro yardstick.” In a brief section titled “Negroes Are Different in Dixie,” the Syndicate’s evaluation of the Southern and Northern black newspaper readers was telling: Northern Negroes may ordain it indecent to read a Negro newspaper more than once a week—but the Southern Negro is more consolidated. Necessity has occasioned this condition. Most Southern white newspapers exclude Negro items except where they are infamous or of a marked ridiculous trend… While his northern brother is busily engaged in ‘getting white’ and ruining racial consciousness, the Southerner has become more closely knit.2 The advertisement was designed to announce and justify the Atlanta World’s reformulation as the Atlanta Daily World, making it the first African-American daily. This fact alone probably explains the advertisement’s “indecent” comment, but its “necessity” argument seems far more legitimate.3 For example, the 1932 Monroe Morning World, a white daily from Monroe, Louisiana, provided coverage of the black community related almost entirely to crime and church meetings.

Comparisons are drawn between local and national developments within the ILGWU and the American labor movement in general. Surprisingly little effort has been made to test prevailing historical interpretations within specific cities-- especially those lying outside of the industrial northeast. Until more localized research is undertaken, the unique organizational struggles of thousands of working men and women will remain ill-understood. Differences in regional politics, economics, ethnicity, and leadership defy the application of broad-based generalizations. The Los Angeles ILGWU offers an excellent example of a group that did not conform to national trends. While the labor movement experienced remarkable success throughout much of the United States, the Los Angeles garment locals failed to achieve their basic goals. Although eastern clothing workers won every important dispute with owners and bargained from a position of strength, their disunited southern Californian counterparts languished under the counterattacks of business interests. No significant gains in ILGWU membership occurred in Los Angeles after 1933, and the open shop survived well iii into the following decade.

  • Maple and Shamrock: Seeking a Strategy for Survival in the Audiovisual Jungle
    Maple and Shamrock: seeking a strategy for survival in the audiovisual jungle. Colum Kenny Context Attempting to assess what the future might hold for Irish broadcasters and producers, especially in the light of digital and multimedia developments and of increasing competition, I recently paid a visit to Ontario and Quebec, two adjacent provinces of Canada. It is a country where audiovisual matters have long been taken seriously. Canada's proximity to the U.S. 'elephant', as that neighbour is sometimes known, concentrates the northern state's collective mind on survival strategies. Previous trips to Canada, including attendance at the Toronto Film Festival and participation as a guest in the Banff Television Festival in Alberta, had induced in the author an admiration for the practical ways in which Canadians have responded to audiovisual challenges. In contrast, Irish broadcasting developments have been stunted by bad planning and poor preparation and marked by an absence of clear strategic focus. Policy has been eschewed in favour of politics and opportunities to build up the kind of audiovisual sector we might have had have been lost. It was at Ottawa, in September 1948, that a visiting Taoiseach, John A. Costello, proclaimed for the first time his own government's intention of declaring Ireland a republic. His successors might consider another visit, specifically to see how a relatively small country can articulate successfully an elaborate media policy. Canada enjoys a remarkably sophisticated system of regulation, licensing and support which manages to keep scores of television stations and hundreds of radio services on the air in a country of under 30 million people.
