Nyc Alliance to Preserve Public Housing
NYC ALLIANCE TO PRESERVE PUBLIC HOUSING July 23rd, 2013 Chairman John B. Rhea New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) 250 Broadway New York, NY 10007 Dear Chairman Rhea, Participants in the NYC Alliance to Preserve Public Housing respectfully submit the attached comments as our collective response to the proposed NYCHA Draft FY2014 Annual Plan. The Alliance is a collaboration of resident leaders/organizations, housing advocates, and concerned elected officials to press for policies to strengthen our public housing communities and extend housing opportunities under the Section 8 voucher program. We seek a stronger resident and community voice in government decisions that affect these communities, as well as greater openness and accountability on the part of the New York City Housing Authority. Alliance members have reviewed the NYCHA Draft FY2014 Annual Plan. This position paper describes key issues we have identified in the plan and puts forward our joint recommendations. Our concerns are organized under the following issue headings: NYCHA Must Retain All Its Operating Revenues Halt the Current NYCHA Infill Land-Lease Plan Moving-to-Work (MTW): Binding Agreement Needed Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Cuts Keep NYCHA Centers Open; Retain NYCHA Jobs Where is the NYCHA Disaster Preparation Plan? Is a One-Evening, Three-Hour Public Hearing Enough? This is a crucial time for renewal and preservation of our affordable, low-income housing resources and a return to NYCHA communities that have sustained hope for generations. We offer our perspectives and ideas as partners in a shared vision of a renewed, persevering, and accountable New York City Housing Authority. -

Jersey City Police Officers Hazecamp and Wolfe Pulled Bobby Over, Allegedly for Running a Stop Sign
Stolen Lives: Killed by Law Enforcement NEW JERSEY Bobby Rodriguez 24 — July 19, 1995. Jersey City: Jersey City police officers Hazecamp and Wolfe pulled Bobby over, allegedly for running a stop sign. Police claim that the unarmed Rodriguez then jumped out of his van and ran into a vacant lot. The officers gave chase. Wolfe said he scuffled with Rodriguez and lost control of his weapon. Wolfe’s gun went off three times. Hazecamp then shot Bobby four times, and he died on the spot. The two cops each suffered a minor wound. Witnesses contradicted the police account. Several people who ran to the vacant lot when they heard the shots arrived to see Bobby lying face down in a pool of blood, with the cops removing handcuffs from behind his back. The cops deny this, but cannot explain why he would have fled and braved police gunfire over a traffic violation. As it turned out, Bobby had been driving home to pick up his companion to take him to work. His companion was Jose Torres, the prisoner being transported in the back of Chiusolo’s car the night that Maximino Cintron was killed. Jose Torres told the press that ever since he testified to the grand jury in 1991, Jersey City police had continually harassed him and Bobby Rodriguez. Julio Tarquino 22 Bolivian May 7, 1995. Jersey City: Julio, his fiancée, and a friend went to a gas station convenience store to buy some food around 3:30 a.m. Two white men began taunting and insulting them and Julio and his friends headed to their car to leave. -

IMAGINATION, INQUIRY, & VOICE a Deweyan Approach to Education In
AMANDA N. GULLA, HOLLY FAIRBANK, & STEPHEN M. NOONAN IMAGINATION, INQUIRY, & VOICE A Deweyan Approach to Education in a 21st Century Urban high School Figure 1. MGHS student ARTE Spring Mural. 2018. Retrieved from: https://www.mghs.nyc/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=1111369&type=d&pREC_ID=14063 71 Abstract: We describe the ways in which the teachers and administrators at The Maxine Greene High School for Imaginative Inquiry (MGHS), an urban public high school named for the philosopher Maxine Greene, are working to embody Greene’s and Dewey’s notion of imagination in the context of a practice called “imaginative inquiry.” Greene considered the role of the imagination in education as a call to action, for once one can imagine a better world, one is compelled to act. Following on and extending Dewey’s work, she defined her philosophy of aesthetic education as signifying “an initiation into new ways of seeing, hearing, feeling, moving…the nurture of a special kind of reflectiveness and expressiveness, a reaching out for meanings, a learning to learn" (p. 7). Imaginative inquiry, the vehicle for enacting an aesthetic education curriculum, is a practice that is fueled by curiosity by which the imagination interacts with the world to bring about multiple possible meanings and ways of understanding. We reflect upon the process by which we are currently working in collaboration with the teachers at MGHS to make the work of imaginative inquiry accessible to all students, and to provide resources to support the work of imaginative inquiry and aesthetic education in high schools.
