Cianne Fragione (b. 1952) is a multidisciplinary artist. With roots in the San Francisco Bay Area Beat and Funk art milieus, she has developed her own process-oriented artistic vocabulary over the past four decades that crosses boundaries between abstract painting and sculpture, and between object and image. A striking combination of oil paint, mixed-media materials, found objects, and textiles characterizes her signature style. Each piece, whether two- or three-dimensional, is built slowly over lengthy periods, becoming a dense synthesis of influences and personal perspectives, including mid-century gestural abstraction and the physical fluency of her early training as a professional dancer. While a sense of space and movement dominates her two-dimensional works, her assemblage pieces tend to be denser and more corporeal. Her most recent works respond to two collections of poems by Italian poet and writer Eugenio Montale: Mediterraneo and Ossi di Seppia.   Fragione has exhibited extensively in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally, including at St. Mary's College Museum of Art, Moraga, CA; Georgetown College, KY; Anya and Andrew Shiva Gallery, New York, NY; American University Museum, Washington, D.C.; John D. Calandra Italian American Institute of Queens College, CUNY, New York, NY; Associazione di Museo D'Arte Contemporaneo Italiano, Catanzaro, Italy; Harmony Hall Regional Center, Washington, MD; University of Scranton Art Museum, Scranton, PA; The Textile Museum, Washington, D.C.; Art in Embassies, Geneva, Sofia, Bulgaria, and Vilnius, Lithuania; Indianapolis Art Center, IN; and San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Gallery, CA.   Her works are held in numerous public collections, including the Baltimore Museum of Art MD; DC Commission Art Bank Collection; Art in Embassies Permanent Collection, U.S. State Department, Guadalajara, Mexico; St. Mary's College Museum of Art, CA; Italian American Museum, D.C; Department of Special Collections, Cecil H. Green Library, Stanford University, CA; Comune di Monasterace, Calabria, IT; among other museum and private collections.   Motetti: Flowers Grow/ Salty Breath, 2024, oil-based paint, pigment, walnut and black ink, graphite, oil pencils,on paper, 42.5 x 35 in (107.95 x 88.9 cm), Image by Martin Seck Bundles: Seacoasts / Among Fragrances / Winds / Decoy, 2024, oil-based paint, pigment, string, lace, fishing lures, and bone on canvas panel, 8 x 5 x 2 in (20.3 x 12.7 x 5.1 cm), Image by Martin Seck The Clouds Travel like White Handkerchiefs of Goodbye, 2020 oil-based pigment, collage, graphite, on mylar 54 x 65 in (137.16 x 165.1 cm) Image by Martin Seck  

Avalon Time is an American old-time radio comedy/variety program that ran from 1938 to 1940 on NBC's Red Network. The program was named after its sponsor, Avalon cigarettes. Over the course of its run, Avalon Time was also sponsored by Sir Walter Raleigh Pipe Tobacco and the Bulova Watch Company. The program is often regarded as comedian Red Skelton's first big break in show business and on radio. Show history Tobacco company Brown & Williamson, former makers of Kool cigarettes, began producing Avalon in 1932. Avalon was Brown & Williamson's 'economy' brand, while never actually mentioning that term. Instead, they were promoted as either the cigarettes that "cost you less" or the cigarettes that "give you change back". Avalon Time was the first Avalon-sponsored radio program with Show Boat premiering in 1939. The 'Reds' 'Red' was an ongoing theme and joke on Avalon Time. Coincidentally, all four hosts of the program had "red" hair. Two of the four hosts went by the name "Red". Also, the program was produced and broadcast over NBC's "Red" Network. Red Foley Avalon Time premiered as The Avalon Variety Show on October 1, 1938 with host Red Foley (1910–1968). Foley began his career in broadcasting in 1930 while still attending school at Georgetown College to perform with the house band on WLS-AM's National Barn Dance. In 1937, Foley, with producer John Lair, created the radio program Renfro Valley Barn Dance for WHAS in Louisville, Kentucky. With the premiere of The Avalon Variety Show in 1938, Foley became the first country artist to host a network radio program. Foley was the longest serving host of the program with frequent co-star Kitty O'Neill. Foley left Avalon in July 1939 and was replaced as host by up-and-coming comedian Red Skelton. Foley's replacement as singer was Curt Massey.[6] After Avalon Time, Foley returned to National Barn Dance and also became a lifelong member of the Grand Ole Opry. He also hosted Ozark Jubilee, the first popular country music television series, in the 1950s. Red Skelton Red Skelton (1913–1997) was the second host of Avalon Time. Skelton became well known for his "Doughnut Dunkers" routine[3] which led to Skelton's first appearance on Rudy Vallée's The Fleischmann's Yeast Hour on August 12, 1937. Vallée's program had a talent show segment and those who were searching for stardom were eager to be heard on it. Vallée also booked veteran comic Joe Cook to appear as a guest with Skelton. The two proceeded to trade jokes about their home towns, with Skelton contending to Cook, an Evansville native, that the city was a suburb of Vincennes, Skelton's hometown. The show received enough fan mail after the performance to invite both comedians back two weeks after Skelton's initial appearance and again in November of that year. On October 1, 1938, Skelton replaced Red Foley as the host of Avalon Time. Skelton's first wife Edna also joined the show's cast, under her maiden name of Stillwell. The Skeltons worked on Avalon Time until late 1939. Skelton went on to do his own radio show, The Raleigh Cigarette Program, on October 7, 1941. The bandleader for the show was Ozzie Nelson; his wife, Harriet, who worked under her maiden name of Hilliard, was the show's vocalist and also worked with Skelton in skits. Skelton went on to have his own successful television series named after him that ran on CBS and NBC for 20 years. Cliff Arquette Comedian Cliff Arquette (1905–1974) replaced Skelton as host of Red Skelton Time in January 1940. Arquette made a guest appearance on the show just a week earlier in December 1939. The title of the program was officially changed to Avalon Time when Arquette came aboard as host. Arquette began his career as a pianist in the early 1920s soon joining the Henry Halstead orchestra in 1923. Arquette had made a few appearances on radio including an appearance on The Jack Benny Program in 1938. Arquette left Avalon Time in May 1940 and went on to establish his most memorable --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dwight-allen0/support

fWotD Episode 2632: John D. Whitney Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 19 July 2024 is John D. Whitney.John Dunning Whitney (July 19, 1850 – November 27, 1917) was an American Catholic priest and Jesuit who became the president of Georgetown University in 1898. Born in Massachusetts, he joined the United States Navy at the age of sixteen, where he was introduced to Catholicism by way of a book that accidentally came into his possession and prompted him to become a Catholic. He entered the Society of Jesus and spent the next twenty-five years studying and teaching mathematics at Jesuit institutions around the world, including in Canada, England, Ireland, and around the United States in New York, Maryland, Boston, and Louisiana. He became the vice president of Spring Hill College in Alabama before being appointed the president of Georgetown University.During his three-year tenure, a number of improvements were made to the campus, including the completion of Gaston Hall and the construction of the entrances to Healy Hall. The Georgetown University Hospital and what would become the School of Dentistry were also established. After the end of his term, he went to Boston College for several years as treasurer before doing pastoral work in Philadelphia, Brooklyn, and Baltimore, where he became the prefect of St. Ignatius Church. He continued to spend time at Boston College, where he died in 1917.John Dunning Whitney was born on July 19, 1850, in Nantucket, Massachusetts. Descending from a prominent family, his father was Thomas G. Whitney and his mother was Esther A. Whitney née Dunning. Esther was a devout Congregationalist and John was raised in that faith. He was sent to several public and private schools, including Nantucket High School, before entering the United States Navy in 1866. While serving as a lieutenant aboard the schoolship USS Mercury, he had a religious conversion experience.Aboard the Mercury, he would often discuss religion with a shipmate, who argued that none of the Protestant churches were the one true church, and that either the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or the Catholic Church was the true church. Whitney was also able to compare the different practices of the Protestant and Catholic chaplains aboard the ship. His conversations with his shipmate convinced Whitney to consider "the claims of the Catholic church". In August 1870, the Mercury was in Newport, Rhode Island, to attend the America's Cup. The captain invited a newlywed Catholic couple aboard to return to New York City from the yacht races. While sailing through the Long Island Sound, the bride dropped a book overboard, and the executive officer had a dinghy lowered into the water to retrieve it. After disembarking in New York, the bride left the book behind, which Whitney discovered to be The Invitation Heeded: Reasons for a Return to Catholic Unity by James Kent Stone, who later became a Passionist priest known as Father Fidelis; the book was written in response to Pope Pius IX's call for all Christians to return to the Mother Church.Having read the book repeatedly, he approached one of the ship's chaplains, Dominic Duranquet, a Jesuit, and declared that if its contents were true, then he must become a Catholic. After being instructed to pray and study further, he requested to be received into the Catholic Church, with Stone as his godfather. On November 2, 1870 (All Souls' Day), Whitney was conditionally baptized by Duranquet in the Church of St. Paul the Apostle in New York City.Whitney entered the Society of Jesus on August 14, 1872, in the Sault-au-Récollet neighborhood of Montreal, Canada, where he remained for two years. He went to Manresa House in the Roehampton district of London, England, in 1875 to study rhetoric for a year, and then to Stonyhurst College in Lancashire for three years to study philosophy. He taught mathematics for a year before returning to the United States in 1880, where he continued to teach mathematics at St. Francis Xavier College in New York City for four years.In 1884, he went to Woodstock College in Maryland to study theology. The following year, he was sent to Mobile, Alabama, where he was ordained a priest on August 15, 1885. He began teaching mathematics in 1886 at Spring Hill College, and eventually became vice president of the school. After four years at Spring Hill College, he went to Ireland in 1890, where he studied theology at Milltown Park in Dublin, before returning to Roehampton for his tertianship in 1892.Whitney then returned to the United States, and began teaching mathematics at St. Charles College in Grand Coteau, Louisiana, from 1893 to 1895. He was transferred to the College of the Immaculate Conception in New Orleans in 1897, and then to St. John's College in The Bronx, later known as Fordham University.Whitney was appointed president of Georgetown University on July 3, 1898, succeeding J. Havens Richards. During his presidency, a number of improvements to the campus were made. The Georgetown University Hospital was opened and the first patient was accepted. Gaston Hall was decorated and completed in 1901. That year, the university also received a donation from Anthony A. Hirst, a wealthy resident of Philadelphia and alumnus of Georgetown College and Law School, to construct Hirst Library inside Healy Hall. The main and center entrances to Healy Hall were completed, walkways were paved, and several campus buildings were renovated, including Dahlgren Chapel.In 1901, Whitney convinced the faculty of the School of Medicine to reconsider the proposal of a local dentist, W. Warrington Evans, to absorb his Washington Dental College as a department of the medical school, a proposal he had been tendering to the university since 1870. The medical faculty accepted the arrangement in May 1901, and the Washington Dental College became a department in late July. It would eventually become the university's School of Dentistry.On May 14, 1901, the university hosted Archbishop Sebastiano Martinelli, the Apostolic Delegate to the United States, upon his elevation to the College of Cardinals. The grand reception in Healy Hall was attended by the students and faculty in their academic regalia, as well as many dignitaries, including the Secretary of War Elihu Root, all the justices of the Supreme Court of the United States, all the justices of the federal District of Columbia Court of Appeals (later renamed to a circuit court), most of the foreign ambassadors to the United States, many military and naval commanders, and the faculties of other local universities. While Whitney was popular with the students, the Jesuit provincial superior decided not to renew his term as president, believing he had placed too much emphasis on athletics and was spendthrifty. Whitney's tenure as president came to an end on July 11, 1901, and he was succeeded by Jerome Daugherty.Following the end of his presidency at Georgetown, Whitney became the treasurer of Boston College in 1902 and held this post until 1907. While in Massachusetts, he also worked closely with the Sisters of the Good Shepherd, a female religious order. He then left Boston to take up ministry at St. Joseph's Church in Philadelphia, before becoming the prefect of St. Ignatius Church in Baltimore in August 1909. He succeeded Francis X. Brady, who left to become president of Loyola College in Maryland, and Whitney was stationed at St. Ignatius for the remainder of his life.While at St. Ignatius, he directed the sodality of St. Ignatius Church, which administered the W. G. Read Mullan Scholarship. He spent the year of 1912 in Brooklyn, away from his parish. In May 1916, his health began to deteriorate, and he spent part of 1917 at Boston College in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, where he died on November 27 of that year. His funeral was held in the Church of the Immaculate Conception in Boston and he was buried at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:33 UTC on Friday, 19 July 2024.For the full current version of the article, see John D.

In this fantastic episode, I spoke with my friend Dr. Shelly Johnson about an incredibly interesting topic: the philosophy of play. Shelly Johnson is a philosophy professor at Georgetown College. She teaches and researches on ethics, philosophy of education, environmental ethics, and philosophy of play. She is the author of the blog Love is Stronger and the books Argument Builder, Discovery of Deduction (co-author) and Everyday Debate Before returning to graduate school, she was a middle and high school humanities teacher for over a decade. She earned her PhD in philosophy at the University of Kentucky and wrote her dissertation on education and the good society. In her free time, she enjoys walking, hiking, juggling, and hula hooping. Shelly teaches a course called The Philosophy of Play and in this episode, she shares some of the important aspects of play that I think many if not most of us take for granted. This topic is so aligned with the non-diet and Intuitive Eating approach because it reminds us of the importance of joyful movement.

Kentucky basketball got out and ran in a blowout exhibition win against Kentucky State. On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe recaps Kentucky's 99-53 win over Kentucky State. DJ Wagner and Justin Edwards rebounded after a bad game against Georgetown College and both shot well from the floor. The team's offense as a whole was much more efficient with their shot selection, and the pacing was crisp. Tre Mitchell absolutely balled out again. If he keeps this up, Kentucky will have no problems at center. The team defense was also improved, too. Is there anything negative to take away from this one? It could be Zvonimir Ivisic, who was not at the game due to illness. Will we see Ivisic suit up for the Blue and White at all this season?

Kentucky basketball takes on Kentucky State in their second exhibition game before the season opener. On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe previews Kentucky vs Kentucky State. KSU has hardly any production from last year's squad returning, and what is coming back was... not very productive. This one is all about the Wildcats, and how they can improve before their season officially starts. Justin Edwards and DJ Wagner have a chance to rebound after a poor shooting performance against Georgetown College. John Calipari's squad as a whole has a chance to work on their defense, rebounding, and developing their style of basketball. Controlling the pace and having solid shot selection will be key. Dawe also discusses Aaron Bradshaw's recent Instagram story post, and whether or not a return sooner rather than later could be in store for Bradshaw.

Jack talks to John Clay from the Herald Leader about UK's first exhibition basketball game against Georgetown College and the upcoming football game against Mississippi St.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kentucky basketball will be without Zvonimir Ivisic, Aaron Bradshaw and Ugonna Onyenso to begin their season. Tre Mitchell will be the only man left in their frontcourt that can truly hold the line. On today's episode of Kentucky basketball, Lance Dawe discusses whether or not this will hurt the Kentucky Wildcats as badly as he has previously speculated. Mitchell's performances during the GLOBL JAM and the exhibition game against Georgetown College may prove he's capable of being a better center for UK than expected (at the very least, offensively). Dawe also takes a look at Kentucky's current odds to reach the Final Four. How likely is it that John Calipari and the Wildcats make it there? Dawe gives to things that need to happen in order for Kentucky to prove they can make the run. Finally, Lance takes a look at Joe Lunardi's final preseason bracketology, where Kentucky has actually risen on the seed line.

Kentucky vs Tennessee - Football conversation with Michele Brown, the good and not so good thoughts and opinions of the game, as well as the Kentucky Basketball exhibition (practice) this past weekend with Georgetown College, plus around the SEC with Jaron Ruth.

Billy recaps the Cats' 92-69 exhibition victory over Georgetown College.

Kentucky basketball had a rough start, but they finished the job against Georgetown College. On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe recaps Kentucky vs Georgetown College basketball. The Wildcats on 92-69 after a very rough first half. Dawe talks the positives; Adou Thiero, Rob Dillingham and Tre Mitchell all looked stellar. All three shot the ball very well while doing other things to help the team perform. There are also negatives... Justin Edwards and DJ Wagner had off nights. Will this continue? Should we be worried about Kentucky's team defense? The statistics are deceiving in this game, and Dawe does his best to navigate the final score while also praising what UK did well. The outlook? Kentucky basketball desperately needs Zvonimir Ivisic, Aaron Bradshaw and Ugonna Onyenso back in order to be elite.

Kentucky basketball is finally back tonight. On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe previews the Kentucky Wildcats' exhibition game against the Georgetown College Tigers. UK is going with a small-ball lineup as the trio of Aaron Bradshaw, Zvonimir Ivisic and Ugonna Onyenso are all out indefinitely. Dawe breaks down the three things he wants to see from John Calipari's Wildcats - strong rebounding, clean offense, and bench production - while also breaking down what the Tigers do well. To wrap things up, Dawe gives his final take on the starting five as well as a bold prediction about Antonio Reeves carrying the team.

Taylor Katherine is a singer/songwriter from Louisville, Kentucky. She is a classically trained vocalist, who studied at Georgetown College in Georgetown, Kentucky. She was also selected to be a participant in the 2008 Kentucky Governor's School for the Arts in vocal music. A Frankfort, Kentucky native, Taylor moved to Louisville in 2018. Shortly after, she became enriched by the local music community, and started to sing at open mics. A few months into that, the world shut down due to the pandemic and she lost her service industry job. During this time, Taylor learned how to play her ukulele and began writing her own songs. Now, she has played at venues all around Louisville, and is penned to play at several festivals across the region in the coming year. Her songs make the harsh realities of life both palatable and relatable, with a voice like "honey on a gravel road". Taylor says the highlight of her music career thus far is when Jim James (My Morning Jacket) said she was "real f@&*in' good" at a Louisville show recently. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tophillrecording/support

Learn the Surprising Secret to Success from a Guest Who Reveals Why Being Your Own Best Friend is Key. When discussing player determination in the realm of golf, the name Christian Heavens is most likely to be included. Christian keeps his nose to the grindstone and his eye on the ball in all aspects of his life as a pro golfer and CEO of Tour Line Golf. His tenure in the sport reflects a career-low round of 61, earned in a Florida pro golf tour event, and he's accomplished 25 tournament victories, including the St. Louis Publix Open this past May.Following a standout collegiate career, Christian made his mark professionally as a member of the PGA Tour Canada in 2012. The stealth player recorded his first two victories on the Florida Professional Golf Tour that same year and went on to compete on the Golf Channel's Big Break, ABC's Season 2 of Holey Moley, the Latin America Tour, and on Florida professional tours.An alumnus of the First Tee of Greater St. Lous, Christian represented the organization at the 2006 First Tee Open at Pebble Beach and in 2010 competed in the U.S. Amateur at Chambers Bay. His outstanding academic and golfing skills earned him a First Tee Scholars scholarship to Georgetown College in Kentucky, where he captured the All-American Inaugural Gimmie Golf Professional Invitational in 2018.A two-time, first-team All-Conference member of the Mid-South Conference, as a junior Christian won first place in the final individual standings at the MSC Championships. For his efforts, he was named MSC Golfer of the Year and went on to earn third-team NAIA All-America honors. In each of his final three seasons at Georgetown, he finished in the top 12 of the MSC Championships.MAIN TAKEAWAYS:Christian Heavens isn't your “traditional” golfer. He got into golf at a time when golf for a Black man was not the norm. His grandfather, Levester Heavens, a firefighter, taught him to play golf when he was a little kid. Christian shared his grandfather's love for the game.Not compromising who you are despite the norm is important in maintaining your identity. Christian still loves hip-hop, and R&B and brings pieces of himself to the golf course. You can be you and still enjoy golf and feel welcome at a golf course or country club, he said. Alex tells a story about a joke he made during an interview, that the interviewer said they didn't understand so they didn't select him out of the top three candidates. Alex said he was just being himself and that should never change.Christian said the Black golf community is small and they talk. Code-switching is one obstacle they feel at a professional level. It can be exhausting as there's sometimes pressure to adapt or code-switch in the golf world. Being himself is one of the things that drives them to make golf more accessible. Alex said there's a difference between code-switching and being various versions of yourself. Christian said he has an at-home, chill, country club side that makes him feel comfortable. “You have to learn to go where you are celebrated not tolerated. Just being you, there will be people who rock with you and those who aren't going to rock with you. Even if you put on a persona, it will still be people that like you and those that don't. Be you and find and attract the people who genuinely like you. You can collaborate with your energies.”- Christian HeavensConfidence and building confidence, or faking it until you make it is key. Act as if you belong there and know where you're going. It will get you through many doors. Success breeds confidence.In golf, there are no coaches. On the golf course, the player can be their own worse enemy criticizing their techniques. But we have to speak to ourselves like we would someone else. You have to catch yourself and be aware of it to combat that. Be your own best...

Matthew 17:1-9Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led them up a high mountain, by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became dazzling white. Suddenly there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him.Then Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, I will make three dwellings here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” While he was still speaking, suddenly a bright cloud overshadowed them, and from the cloud a voice said, “This is my Son, the Beloved; with him I am well pleased; listen to him!”When the disciples heard this, they fell to the ground and were overcome by fear. But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Get up and do not be afraid.”And when they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus himself alone. As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus ordered them, “Tell no one about the vision until after the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.” Have you heard about the spiritual “revival” at Asbury University?Asbury University is a private Christian school in Wilmore, Kentucky. It identifies as “non-denominational,” but has ties to the Wesleyan-Holiness movement. Which means, I think, that it's inclined toward the Methodist institution, in not so many words.Anyway, apparently they're experiencing a surprising, unintended, unplanned, Holy Spirit-induced, good old-fashioned “revival,” there – and have been since a week ago, Wednesday as far as I could tell.See, Wednesday is when Asbury University has its regularly-scheduled, weekly chapel, as many small, private, religiously affiliated undergraduate colleges and universities do. And at Asbury – like so many other schools – students are required to attend some number of these 10 a.m., Wednesday morning, chapel services each semester.And last Wednesday, something odd happened.After the benediction, when worship was supposed to be over; when, I'm guessing, students usually pull out their phones, put on their coats, and shuffle off to their next class, to the cafeteria for lunch, or back to bed … they didn't leave. Many, or most, maybe all of them – students, professors, staff and worship leaders – just stayed.They stuck around… singing quietly, praying like they meant it, reading Scripture, publicly confessing their sins, even. Small groups of prayer circles formed. People raised their arms in praise. Some knelt at the altar. Some prostrated themselves on the floor. According to those who've witnessed it, the space was filled with peace and quiet and music and joy and light and love and all the good vibes.Ultimately, people began to come and go, but the praying and worshiping, reading and confessing continued. The place has been packed – standing room only – according to a professor of theology from the seminary across the street, who walked over so he could see it to believe it.AND students have been showing up from other schools – the University of Kentucky, Ohio Christian, Lee University, Georgetown College, Mt. Vernon Nazarene University – Purdue and Indiana Wesleyan University, even – just to name a few. I saw some Asbury alumni from right here in New Pal posting about it on Facebook, too.And I find it fascinating. My skeptical instincts, some of what I've read about it, and my limited experience with such things tempt me to be critical of it, but I'm not going there. It's not something that ever happened in chapel when I was an undergrad – not that I would have been there to notice. (They didn't take attendance at Capital University.) And if it's all it's cracked up to be for those who are experiencing it, more power to them.Anyway, all of this lasted for at least a week – it was still happening until THIS Wednesday, anyway, when I sat down to start thinking about this sermon and about today and about what we call “Transfiguration Sunday” around here – an event, for what it's worth, I would have been equally skeptical about back in the day.Because it seems like a spiritual revival of sorts took place on that mountain with Jesus, Peter, James and John. Jesus took them up the mountain “after six days,” we're told, which is another way of saying, “on the seventh day,” which means we're supposed to draw some meaningful connections to what happened when Moses took a hike up another mountain, “on the seventh day” as we heard about in our first reading from Exodus. Moses came down with the Ten Commandments, remember, after a transformative, transfiguring moment of his own up on there on Mount Sinai.And in order to make that connection even more clearly, the disciples see Jesus in conversation with Moses – and Elijah, too – as a sign and declaration of his prophetic status and succession as the Messiah… the next … and last … and final Word … worth listening to … as God's Chosen One … anointed … beloved prophet of all prophets.So, however and whatever happened up on that mountain with Jesus – by way of his face that shined like the sun and his dazzling white clothes, in the appearance of those ghosts from the past, that talking cloud, and God's profound declarations about his belovedness – the point was to reveal for those carefully chosen disciples (Peter, James and John) that Jesus was something special; that he was worth listening to, learning from, and following.And we'd like to imagine the disciples were changed by all of this – Peter, James and John, I mean. They were knocked to their knees by what they saw and heard, after all. They were filled with fear and awe at what they witnessed. Maybe they prostrated themselves, raised their hands in worship, maybe they prayed, silently or aloud. And, like the students, faculty and staff at Asbury University, last week, Peter wants them to stay … to make it all last: “Lord, if you wish, I'll build three dwellings here; one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah, too.”But, as great and holy as it was… as mighty and transformative as it seemed to be… that doesn't happen. It doesn't last for long. Jesus seems to nip it in the bud pretty quickly. He comes to the disciples, touches them – seemingly snaps them out of their spiritual shock and awe – and they head back down the mountain. And as they go, he tells them to keep all of this on the down low. He tells them not to tell anyone about any of it until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead. And this, for me, is where the lesson, the inspiration, the challenge and the hope about whatever happened on that mountaintop with Jesus and – whatever may be happening at Asbury University – matters. Because the lesson, inspiration, challenge and hope of whatever spiritual renewal or revival we're looking for, longing for, or experiencing shows up in what happens as a result of it all.Because what happens next for Jesus, as God's beloved, anointed, chosen one, was even more surprising, unbelievable and awe-inspiring than what happened on that mountaintop. He healed the sick and gave sight to the blind. He taught about loving the lost and forgiving without limit. He chastised and challenged the rich and the wealthy. He preached against the powerful. He talked politics and protested injustice. He overturned the tables in the temple. And after all of that – because of all that, and more – Jesus gets crucified. He shares a meal with his friends; he is arrested; he is denied and betrayed by the closest of his followers – Peter, James and John, from this morning's mountain, among them – and then he dies a horrible, humiliating, public and painful death – whipped, beaten, mocked, spit upon, crowned with thorns and nailed to a cross.So, I kind of think Jesus is saying – on his way down the mountain this morning: “don't go yapping about this mountaintop stuff – this little ‘transfiguration moment' up here on the hill – unless or until it amounts to something; until you're able to see and connect it with the rest of what's to come.”“Don't talk about spiritual renewal or faithful transformation unless or until it leads to some measure of sacrifice, in your life, for the sake of others.”“Don't talk about spiritual revival or transfiguration unless or until it comes from – or leads to – a place of humility, justice, mercy and peace.”“Don't talk about spiritual renewal or faithful transformation unless or until it has something to do with a new way of living and moving and being in the world; unless or until something changes in you that does something to change the world around you.”So, may whatever spiritual revival or renewal or transfiguration we seek as God's people in this world inspire us not to stay put or to cling to the mountaintop moments of our lives for the sake of the mountaintop moments of our lives. But may renewal, revival and transfiguration fill us, inspire us and move us down from the mountain, beyond our sanctuary, off of our couches and out of our kitchens – to the lonely places, toward the least among us, in the face of the darkness and the powers that be, for the sake of a world that is ripe for the live-changing, life-giving hard, holy grace and good news that belong to us all in Jesus Christ our Lord.Amen

Hunter lives in Cartersville with his wife and two sons and a third son is on the way.Hunter attended a church youth group. In seventh grade, he went on a youth trip with his friends and all of them were “giving their life to the Lord” so Hunter did, too. He thought he was saved from that point on, but now he sees that he wasn't. In middle school and high school, Hunter walked a path of destruction, drinking, and having unhealthy relationships. After surgeries for sports injuries, he got addicted to pain pills and sold narcotics.Hunter talks about the solid upbringing in faith and church attendance that his parents gave him. But in eighth grade, he got into a relationship and started partaking in unhealthy things that were not honoring God. Looking back, he had no conviction of faith. He had just said the words at a youth camp, following his friends.In 11th grade, Hunter suffered a broken kneecap playing in the first baseball game of the year and had surgery for it. It crushed him. Right after the surgery, Hunter got addicted to pain pills. After a year of physical recovery, Hunter went back to play baseball in his senior year. Over four years, he had elbow surgery, four knee surgeries, and ankle reconstruction. When Hunter was in an unhealthy relationship starting in eighth grade, he stayed away from home as much as possible. He hid his relationship from his parents. If his parents had found out, he says he would have been embarrassed, but that exposure would have corrected his behavior quickly.Hunter shares how his addiction to pain pills occurred. He had broken up from his relationship, he had had multiple sports injuries, preventing him from fulfilling his childhood dream of a sports career, and pain pills gave him a momentary escape from reality.After high school, Hunter received a full baseball scholarship from Shorter University in Rome, Georgia. In the first month of Fall practice in 2011, Hunter blew out his other kneecap.When Hunter was injured, he told his coach that with his history of surgeries, he couldn't play anymore. Hunter finished the school year and then transferred to Georgia Highlands and lived at home. After two years, he got an associate's degree and transferred to West Georgia.Hunter talks about getting saved. When he transferred from Shorter to Georgia Highlands, a friend of his came over and invited him to a Campus Outreach event through Georgetown College in Kentucky. There he heard the gospel again. As Hunter was sitting in church, a pastor shared Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” (KJV) Until then, Hunter had thought that if his good works outweighed his bad works, he was good to go. When he heard that scripture and remembered Romans 5:8 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (KJV),  in the blink of an eye, Hunter felt the Lord pluck him out of darkness and place him into the light. That changed his entire perspective on life. Hunter found that West Georgia had a Campus Outreach, the same program that his friend had invited him to in Kentucky. Hunter transferred to West Georgia. He found a great ministry and a lot of friends that he still has. He entered the business administration program for a bachelor's degree. He was in that program for two years and it was pivotal in setting him up for his career.Hunter tells of his father's history as a sales executive for a company that erected steel structures for billboards, and how he started a company for that. Hunter tells how he decided to go into sales after hearing a guest lecturer at college speak about a career in sales. He liked the billboard business but instead of selling steel like his father, he chose to get into the ad space side of the business.Hunter tells how he started selling his pain pills in college. A player approached him who knew somebody who would buy them at a price per pill. He did this for a few months, raising the price when he was selling out. He cared more about how much he could get per pill than he did about taking the pills. Finally, his doctor refused to prescribe more. He walked away from selling and that was about the time he moved back home with his parents. Hunter feels the Lord had already started to work in his life and remove the incentive for him to be selling pills.Hunter thinks that his “sales” experience with the pills may have helped him to succeed in sales. As Hunter was considering a sales career, he discussed it with his mom and dad. After he had gotten saved, he started to appreciate who they were and what they did for him. His Heavenly Father's influence on him had a huge impact on his relationship with his parents.   Hunter graduated in May 2016 and took a job at Southwire in Carrollton. That summer, Hunter's dad passed away. Hunter moved back home again to help his mom run the several businesses his dad had left behind. After six months, he wanted to go back to Carrollton, but the opportunity was gone. His dad's friend Josh, in Cartersville, who ran a billboard company, renamed his company Horton Outdoor in honor of Hunter's father and allowed Hunter to get into adspace sales in the billboard industry with him. Hunter's first job at Horton Outdoor was Account Executive, cold-calling on customers. Hunter describes the subliminal effect of billboards. McDonald's does 98% of its advertising on billboards. You know when the McRib is back because you see it on a billboard.Hunter tells how “playing dumb” as a new sales executive got him in the door with decision-makers at first. When he had more experience, he used a hook to capture attention, asking the business owner if their advertising dollars were providing the results they had expected. Then he asked for a little bit of time to show how he could help them. He wanted to get the owner to sit with him and see eye-to-eye. Hunter says sales is about relationships, not products or services.   The biggest thing that helped Hunter right out of the gate was being told “No.” On his first day of cold-calling, he got told “No,” every time. That night he was wondering if that was how he wanted to spend his life. Being told “No” is not fun, but it made him pivot and think. Over time, that has helped in many ways besides sales, including his relationships. Hunter believes being told “No” helps us mentally in a way that the Lord uses for good. we need to be told “No” way more often. When Hunter's parents had told him “No,” he would disobey and do it anyway. It doesn't work that way in the “real world”!Jim and Hunter unpack the “real world” to mean accepting adult responsibility for your actions and life. When you become a man, things affect you differently than when you're a boy. After getting told “No” all day, the next morning, he decided that he would do this job for three months, the best that he could, getting after it as hard as he could, calling on as many people as he could, and see if he could make a career of it. If not, he would pivot to do something else. With persistence and discipline, slowly but surely, there were a lot more yeses than there were noes. Sales is a numbers game. Every person can't tell you “No.”   Early on in his career, Hunter wanted to do everything “Hunter's way.” It wasn't working for him, so he called on a list of men his father had known; business partners, customers, and as many people in the billboard space that could advise him with their decades of experience. After a week or two of talking to all his dad's associates, Hunter felt ready to go forward.   Hunter recalls two traits that his new mentors exemplified. They shared instructions and set an example. Every one of them shared instructions in humility, admitting where they had gotten it wrong. Every one of them listened to Hunter and asked him questions to understand his need.Hunter talks about meeting his wife right after his dad passed away. They started as friends and got into a relationship at the time Hunter got into the billboard industry. She encouraged him, listened to him, and gave him advice that he didn't want to hear at times. She was the most helpful thing in Hunter's life as he was learning more about what it meant to be a Christian, to mourn and grieve the loss of his father, and to face his responsibilities. They weren't married yet but she was a huge helper to him. In the summer of 2017, Hunter proposed to her and they got married in January 2018. Their third child is expected in January along with their fifth anniversary. She provides the platform for Hunter to be able to go out and do his work well.Jim acknowledges being a Godly stay-at-home mother as the most difficult job in the world and as the hardest-working humans that have walked the planet.Hunter shares how he developed resilience and did not quit. He decided early that he wanted experience to be his teacher. He learned to sell through cold-calling and sending hand-written letters to businesspeople. Jim remarks that hand-written letters are missing from today's society. Hunter knew that to get the success that other people weren't getting, he need to do things that other people weren't doing. He shares some examples of tactics he used to make contact with business owners.   Jim comments on Hunter's creativity and determination to devise and try new methodologies and asks how that confidence applied to his marriage and parenting.   Hunter quickly realized in marriage and as a father that he had a lot of room to grow. He got married after about a year in the industry and he had seen a lot of success from the techniques he was using. His ego told him he had marriage figured out, too. After several arguments early in his marriage, he realized he had to do something different for it to work. It was the same for parenting. He knew he was wrong in his first approach and he credits conviction from the Lord for setting a new direction for him. Listening to his wife, hearing God's word, spending time in prayer, and listening to people of faith helped Hunter. He prays all the time that the Lord would convict him and bring him to his knees so that he can be a better husband and father.The biggest development in Hunter's career came in October of 2021 when his boss sold the company to Trailhead Media. Hunter had to decide if he was going to stay with the larger company and go from an inventory of 600 billboards to 5,000 billboards, including travel to the Carolinas. It would have meant more money and less time at home. He chose to be a Godly husband and father. He decided to stay at home with his family, take a leap of faith, and start a business. He reveals the conversations he had with his wife about it. She told him over and over that she trusts him and knows he will make the right decision. He spent a lot of time in prayer and seeking wise counsel. Hunter talked to Jim about it and other friends and businessmen. The more conversations he had, and even feeling that the Lord would support him in either decision, he realized that this was the time of his life when he would have the best opportunity to start a business. It's going on a year, and Hunter says it's going well.Hunter has learned some lessons in entrepreneurship. The hardest thing has been turning from a sales executive to running a business. He quickly realized that there was so much more to a business than he ever imagined. For the first couple of months, all he did was learn. He wanted to be out making money, but he couldn't do that effectively or successfully until he learned the key parts of running a business. The paperwork is hard, but what has been easy is the selling he has been taught to do over the previous five years. His growth and development along the way have prepared him for where he is now.   Hunter encourages the listeners who are salesmen to be disciplined and stay persistent. Stay true to who you are and do the same thing over and over until you get to the point where you may have to change it. Instead of giving up at the first hard thing, give yourself a commitment to do it as hard as you can for three months to see if you succeed. You'll be able to tell in that time if you're cut out for this or need to pivot to a different career.   Jim directs the conversation to the family. Hunter talks about discipline, Growing up, Hunter was spanked and slapped a lot because his behavior was incorrect. He learned what was wrong and right. Now, Hunter does not see many fathers discipline their children. He doesn't see nearly as many fathers present in their families as when he grew up. That's the biggest decline he has seen and he sees that sets up children for failure.Jim agrees that the presence of a man changes the behavior of a boy.In the time leading up to getting engaged, and then married, Hunter spent a lot of time thinking back on how his father was as a husband, and he read a lot of scripture on what it is to be a husband. Anytime today that Hunter has any questions about what it means to be a Godly husband, he goes to the scriptures. He remembers how his dad led his mom in a Godly way. He talked with other men who are examples.   Jim and Hunter discuss what methodologies they saw in their dads that they affirm for their work as husbands. Hunter noticed that his father and mother always communicated well with each other. Applying it to his marriage, Hunter will often ask his wife what is he doing well in their marriage and what is he doing poorly; what are some ways in which he can be a better husband and a better father; and ways in which he can grow in who he is. He feels that if he can ask questions to open up communications in their marriage, they will thrive. He says that husbands and wives don't communicate enough. Jim affirms Hunter's practice of asking his wife what he does well in their marriage, so he can continue to honor his wife with those things. Jim asks Hunter to share one or two things he is doing well in his marriage that he would like to pass on to the audience.   Hunter talks about providing, not just financially so his wife can stay home with their children, but providing conversations at the dinner table, prayer together before bed, times of entertainment and exercise, and different things to do as a family. He is always asking himself how the family can intentionally interact with one another to strengthen their marriage and family. It can be going out to eat, playing at the playground, playing tag in the yard, and spending time together in prayer. Hunter intentionally spends one-on-one time with his boys. His older son can have a conversation with him and that has allowed Hunter to have a better understanding of how his son views the family and the world.   Hunter tells how his faith in the Bible affects the way he is as a husband and father. The biggest way is having a Godly community around the couple and family, his faith in Jesus Christ, and what He has done in Hunter's life. Godly community influences their marriage and family. Prayer, reading God's word, and Bible studies are very helpful, but surrounding yourselves with Godly people who can pray over you and encourage you is the best influence.   Hunter suggests how listeners can begin some of the disciplines he practices. If you are hesitant to commit to something time-consuming, start by singing worship music alone in your car. That discipline, over time, will flow into other spiritual disciplines.Hunter would want people to remember what marks him as a man by the way he loves his wife and boys. He wants people to say Hunter Horton was a Godly husband and a Godly father. Look at his marriage and look at his boys. He also wants to be marked as someone who is humble and doesn't want any credit but can do much for the Kingdom of God and the community he lives in without any recognition or praise. He admits that's his biggest struggle so he is working on it. He credits all his success to God.   Jim thanks Hunter for making himself transparent on this podcast and sharing his inspiring example.

Listen in as Crystal Hughes shares how she developed scaffolds to support her 8th graders shift from passive online learners to engaged historians and writers on PEBC's Phenomenal Teaching Podcast with Michelle Morris Jones. When school began last year, Crystal's students were quite reluctant to engage in writing, yet Crystal knew that her students were capable of being successful with argumentation. Tapping into the workshop model and formative assessment allowed Crystal to create a Writer's Workshop within her social studies class. Specifically, throwing away writing fears, setting high expectations, planning for engagement with intriguing topics, leveraging formative assessments, meeting in small groups, conferring, chunking the process, providing time to write, differentiating tools, using consistent rubrics, and developing a community of writers were some of the ways that Crystal moved students from producing a few lines on the page to crafting an argumentative essay with each unit. Crystal believes in the importance of courageous curiosity and radical empathy and uses these beliefs as energy sources to support each and every student to be successful. This episode connects to the workshop and assessment strands of the PEBC Teaching Framework. Crystal spent 10 years in the beauty industry before coming to teaching full-time. Throughout those years she worked with students in many different types of settings. Tutoring on weekends, volunteering with youth in her community and at local schools. During those years Crystal earned a Bachelor's degree at the University of Kentucky and her Master's Degree from Georgetown College. Crystal is a first-generation college student who knows first-hand the challenges of generational poverty. With the love and support of her family, Crystal has been sowing roots at the Mighty Elkhorn Middle School for the past five years where she served as an 8th grade social studies teacher, team lead for seven teachers and a Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports team member. She most recently completed her Principal Program at the University of Cumberlands and is now an Academic Dean. Follow her on Twitter @007CHughes. The “Phenomenal Teaching Podcast” is brought to you by Public Education & Business Coalition (PEBC) and is intended to elevate the strands of the PEBC Teaching Framework illustrated in Wendy Ward Hoffer's book, Phenomenal Teaching. Those strands include community, planning, workshop, thinking strategies, discourse, and assessment. Thank you for joining us this season as we strive to share the stories of educators who are creating scaffolds for each and every student to ensure that classrooms and schools are places where agency, equity, and understanding can flourish.

Updated: July 15, 7:40 a.m. | Posted: July 14, 5 a.m. When 64-year-old Minneapolis resident Elton Wright-Trusclair was growing up Black in Louisiana during 1960s-era Jim Crow segregation, his elders told him very little about his family's history. But through serving as an altar boy in a town where churches kept the races separated in services and even in cemeteries, Wright-Trusclair says he had a hunch that terrible things had been done to his family. He sensed that those crimes against his family and humanity could have been committed by the very Catholic institutions that relegated Black people to a lower status in his small town. “My grandparents raised me, but they didn't talk about that part,” he said. “They didn't talk about that. Some things, a lot of old people didn't talk about because that's how they were raised. That's how they did us, manipulated us down there. And a lot of old people didn't talk about stuff like that.” In 2017, top clergy and officials from the Society of Jesus and Georgetown University revealed some of the painful secrets that Wright-Trusclair now believes his grandparents were too traumatized to share. In a public ceremony, the Jesuits and Georgetown apologized for selling 272 enslaved Black people to three Louisiana plantations in 1838, in a $115,000 transaction that kept then-struggling Georgetown from having to close its doors. Several generations of Wright-Trusclair's family were enslaved by the Jesuits, including his grandparents' grandparents.    “It is our very enslavement of another, culminating in the tragic sale of 272 women, men and children that remains with us to this day, trapping us in an historic truth for which we implore mercy and justice, hope and healing,” Father Timothy Kesicki, then the leader of the Society of Jesus for Canada and the U.S., told descendants at the ceremony. But Wright-Trusclair is one of many descendants who say the Jesuits' apology and the atonement gestures that followed were not enough. Some are frustrated that the Jesuit order chose to focus mainly on the 1838 sale, instead of detailing deeper history that is not widely known: The Maryland Jesuits entered the slavery business in around 1700, and the revenues from their five plantations funded the founding of Georgetown in 1789, as well as dozens of other Jesuit universities and high schools.  Further, the Jesuits enslaved more than one thousand people over more than a century and a half, not just 272 people. And in modern times, records show that the church has generated tens of millions of dollars from the sale of properties and plantation lands that were once cultivated by the enslaved ancestors of people like Wright-Trusclair. According to the Georgetown Slavery Archive, by 1700, Jesuit priests had purchased enslaved people and established tobacco plantations on more than 12,000 acres along the Potomac River in southern Maryland. Over the next 164 years, the Jesuits enslaved about 1,100 people, according to Sharon Leon, an associate professor of history at Michigan State University. The riches and success of the institutions that the Jesuits capitalized and built using slavery as a business model have sparked a debate that is showing how difficult and costly the path to atonement will be for many American institutions. Georgetown belongs to a consortium of fifty schools including Harvard, Brown, and the University of Virginia, which have pledged to study and confront the role that enslavement played in their histories and the impact that legacy has today. So far, the Jesuits' journey on the road to atonement has been rocky. Wealth built on the backs of enslaved people  The fact that the enslavement of four generations of Wright-Trusclair's family helped fund the creation of droves of institutions that are now worth billions of dollars has led him and others to call for direct cash payouts. He believes that the trauma and long-term effects of Jesuit and Georgetown slavery still impacts his family today, including by blocking their ability to pass wealth down through the generations. “I would like to see some kind of reparations,” Wright-Trusclair said, “It is unfair.” According to the Georgetown archive, in its first 25 to 30 years, Georgetown College was financed directly by Jesuit plantations. That includes from 1793 to 1796, when the college was granted the rights to receive all profits from all five Jesuit plantations for a period of three years. It also includes 1813, when the entire management and income of the St. Inigoes Manor plantation was placed under the direct control of the President of Georgetown College. And in 1816, Georgetown College was granted financial support to be paid from the St. Thomas Manor slave plantation in Charles County, MD, and Newtown Manor slave plantation in St. Mary's County, MD. The labor of the ancestors of Wright-Trusclair and others on Jesuit plantations also helped capitalize dozens of other Catholic colleges and high schools, including Loyola University in Baltimore and the College of the Holy Cross. Officials at Loyola only became aware of the school's financial connection to slavery last summer. In December, the school launched a presidential task force to investigate its slavery ties. The fact that this foundational history was not detailed in the 2017 apology to descendants and may still not have been shared with Jesuit institutions that benefited from slavery has intensified calls for transparency, more information and direct cash compensation from some descendants.   After the public apology, the members of a group representing descendants pushed without success for Georgetown and the Maryland Jesuits to meet with them to discuss reparations. Frustrated, they eventually sent a letter to the top Jesuit leader in Rome — going over the heads of the local Maryland order — complaining that “for more than a year we have literally been ignored.” They asked Rome to intervene. They demanded a full accounting of the wealth their ancestors generated for the Jesuits and issued a rough number for what they believe they are owed in direct payouts: $1 billion. The Maryland Jesuits rejected that proposal. Today, some descendants say it is unfair to discount the role that their ancestors played as revenue producers, stressing that Georgetown and dozens of other institutions would not exist if it hadn't been for their families. This, they say, is the financial justification and basis for their $1 billion request. But not all descendants agree on the best path forward. By 2018, the descendants split into different camps — each calling for different types of reparations. Some wanted the money to go directly to the descendants, while others wanted the money to be dispersed more generally, to charity and educational foundations benefiting Black Americans as a whole. The Jesuits entered negotiations with a small group of descendants and the two sides emerged in March 2021 with a deal that did not include direct cash payments. Under that deal, the Jesuit Conference of Canada and the U.S. formed a new organization with those descendants, called The Descendants Truth and Reconciliation Foundation. The Jesuits pledged $100 million toward a $1 billion goal, funds that will be used in part to support initiatives such as educational scholarships for descendants, anti-racist programs and charitable organizations. The foundation set a goal to become the “moral and intellectual leader in the pursuit of truth, racial healing and transformation in America.”  But many descendants have rebuffed the Jesuit's foundation and now accuse both the Jesuits and the university of shortchanging them. More than two hundred have signed a petition alleging that they have been cut out of “secret negotiations.” Some believe that the Jesuits used descendants as pawns in the 2017 apology, benefiting from publicity without detailing the full extent of their involvement in slavery or compensating the affected families directly. The Jesuits did not respond to MPR News requests for comment. Wright-Trusclair is among the descendants who don't agree with the scholarship fund proposal.  “Everybody, ain't going to college,” he said.  A Georgetown University spokesperson said the school's own atonement efforts and research it has done into the ties between the university and slaveholding is “neither the start nor the end of our work.” Still, the university believes it has been transparent in saying that the 1838 sale was not the full extent of its involvement in slavery. Additional information has been provided, including in a 2016 report on slavery, in a pamphlet distributed on campus in the 2015-16 academic year and in material it has made public in its archives, the spokesperson said. Ben Hovland | MPR News Elton Wright-Trusclair holds a photo of his grandparents Lawrence and Ceal Trusclair. Ceal's grandparents, née Hawkins, were among those enslaved by the Jesuits. Slavery as a business model  Richard Cellini, a Georgetown alumnus and Italian-American entrepreneur, spent more than $50,000 of his own money to hire genealogists who have identified more than 11,000 descendants. He said the Jesuits should share information about the true depth of its financial dependence on slavery. “Jesuit slavery dates from the 1690s to 1864 when enslaved people were emancipated in the state of Maryland,” Cellini said. “Maybe there are a few lines or sentences — adding up to a paragraph or two — where Georgetown and the Jesuits allude to the fact that their slaveholding was not limited to 1838. But they've really not done anywhere near an adequate job of explaining the true extent, depth and duration of their dependence on human trafficking and slavery.” Some descendants say they can't make any agreement with the Jesuits and Georgetown until Jesuit institutions disclose how much income they have generated and collected from the legacy of slavery, from the early 1700's to today. In a signed petition sent last year, one group asked the Jesuits to publicly disclose the balance sheet from the Corporation of Roman Catholic Clergymen — the business entity that contained the Georgetown and Jesuits slavery operations — “from 1793 to the present day.” As part of the petition, they requested “all information in the Society's possession documenting how much wealth the Society generated from the enslavement of our ancestors; how this wealth was spent; and how much remains in the Society's possession today.” In 2009, the Jesuits sold more than 4,000 acres of former plantation land in Maryland for $57 million, real estate records show. The descendants' concern about the sale of the plantation land is based partly on the fact that many of their ancestors are buried there. The Jesuits denied the request for financial records. They have also declined to specify how much former plantation land the church still owns or at what it is valued. Archives detail horrors of captivity  A review of Georgetown's archive gives a clear window into why Wright-Trusclair's grandparents may have been reluctant to discuss what happened to their elders while they were in captivity. Once sold in the 1838 transaction, many of his family members never saw each other again. And DNA tests have revealed that some of the slavery descendants are the offspring of prominent Jesuit clergy and Georgetown officials from the past. Some descend from Rev. John Ashton, a white Jesuit priest and Georgetown founder who fathered the children of Susanna Queen, a Black woman he enslaved, who is also documented as being whipped during her childhood. One letter in the archive is from a Jesuit official who reported the anguish expressed by some of the enslaved people as they were being gathered for sale to Louisiana, away from loved ones. He quotes an unnamed pregnant woman who protested, "If ever someone should have reason for despair, do I not now have it? I do not know on what day the birth will come, whether on the road or sea. What will become of me? Why do I deserve this?” Father Peter Kenney, a Jesuit sent from Rome to visit Jesuit plantations in 1820 to report on the financial health of the slavery business, reported accounts of Jesuit priests whipping enslaved people. Some of those whipped were pregnant and some had “been tied up in the priests own parlor.” He also reported a dearth of food supplies at several plantations. Less than 10 percent of the records pertaining to Jesuit slavery have been placed online. The vast majority of the records are stacked in about two hundred boxes in a Georgetown Library. Some descendants say the fact that so many records have not been put online makes it harder for them to find other descendants, especially since the Jesuits and Georgetown are not providing any funds to help them search. They have asked the Jesuits and Georgetown to fund and launch a formal search for the remaining 828 of the 1,100 enslaved people. Unlike the 272 in the 1838 sale, the vast majority of those people and their descendants have never been searched for or identified. For example, the archives show that around 1825, the Georgetown Jesuits took between six and 10 slaves to Florissant, Missouri to build a seminary, which became St. Louis University. They also built St. Charles College in Louisiana and other churches and high schools in Kentucky and Ohio. Historically, at least one Georgetown official expressed interest in tracking down the people the school enslaved. In 1912, Father Joseph Zwinge SJ, business manager of the Maryland Province, published a series of historical essays about the Jesuit slave plantations, writing: “It might be interesting to know what became of our negroes in Louisiana.” Precedent for reparations requests The archive also shows that Georgetown's refusal to consider direct reparations is at odds with its past. In 1862, following the Emancipation Proclamation, a top official at the Georgetown University School of Medicine sought compensation for the loss of seven enslaved people. Dr. Noble Young, a founder and leader of the school, requested the U.S. government pay him $8,600, which he said was “moderate market values” for "Lucy $800: Henry $1,600: Matthew $1,300: Rachael $1,300: Henny $1,300: Eliza $1,100: John $1,000. He described the people as invaluable. “What peculiarly enhances their value is their strict & scrupulous honesty: cheerful and affectionate dispositions: willingness to cook, capacity to learn and fidelity. Lucy an excellent cook — the men perfect waiters and the girls know nursing, washing and cooking." Cellini believes the descendants should be paid direct restitution — similar to how some of Georgetown's leaders once sought reparations. “Sometimes when the topic of reparations comes up, even people who are pro-reparations will say, ‘Of course, we can't just give money to Black families and let them use it for just anything. We have to put some restrictions on it,'” he said. “Folks will say, ‘We can't just give them $50,000, because they'll use it to buy a car.' Well, my family is a white family, and last year we came into an extra $50,000, and can you guess what we did with it? We bought a new car.” Some descendant families have retained attorneys to help them pursue reparations, including Georgia Goslee, a Washington D.C.-based lawyer. “They are very disgruntled and very dissatisfied, feeling as though they have been deceived,” Goslee said. “Georgetown admits and accepts the responsibility. We believe part of that responsibility is compensation to the descendants individually, as opposed to an organization or a foundation that purports to represent the descendants. In fact, they don't, and they didn't at the time that the deal was cut.” Georgetown's student body passed a referendum in 2019 to establish a $400,000 charitable fund to pay for things such as health care costs and education programs for descendants. Students voted to pay $27.20 per semester into the fund. Eventually, Georgetown told students their fund wasn't necessary, and established its own similarly focused $400,000 charitable reserve to be funded by the university. As part of that effort, the university, which has an endowment of about $2.6 billion, intends to invest money in community-building projects instead of direct reparations. It has also re-christened a campus dormitory once named for the long-ago school president who had helped arrange the 1838 sale, re-naming it after an enslaved patriarch of the 272 people. Children of descendants applying for entry have also been granted “legacy” status at Georgetown, which means they receive special consideration in the admissions process. But some descendants have expressed frustration that Georgetown does not currently offer any scholarships to the descendants of people that it trafficked and enslaved. Lasting legacy of slavery Elton Wright-Trusclair feels proud when he thinks back to his grandparents' generation. He says despite the actions of the Jesuits and Georgetown, his family survived. However, generations later some family members kept working for the Jesuits and as sharecroppers on the farms of Louisiana enslaver families until they died. “They did a lot of people so bad and that's mainly why they should have reparations,” he said. “Because of the way that they treated us people so bad.”
