West Side Story av Leonard Bernstein från 1957 är en modern tolkning av Romeo och Julia, komplex och känslig. Per Feltzin om en milstolpe i musikalens historia. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. En septembernatt i New York. Året är 1957. På restaurang Sardi's är det nervöst. Alla är där: tonsättaren, koreografen, sångarna, dansarna - alla. Man småpratar och väntar på morgontidningarna. Trots publikens stora jubel och vännernas ryggdunkningar vet alla att det är kritikernas ord som avgör om en uppsättning på Broadway överlever.Så kommer morgontidningarna och de börjar läsa Herald Tribune där den mest fruktade kritikern finns. "Jag har sett den mest vilda, rastlösa, elektriska dansen på ett drygt decennium. Den radioaktiva strålningen från West Side Story sänker sig fortfarande ner över Broadway denna morgon."Reaktionerna på Leonard Bernsteins West Side Story var med några få undantag positiva. Redan då talade man om en milstolpe i musikdramatikens historia.Ser vi bara till berättelsen, en modern tolkning av Romeo och Julia, har den djup, komplexitet och känslighet. Musikalen har till och med vågat sig på att delvis följa Shakespeares tragiska slut. Det är ovanligt i USA, och här lät man båda akterna sluta med döda ungdomar på scenen.Det var inte den första musikalen med ett allvarligt socialt tema, men ett av de första, där samtiden fanns på scenen. I West Side Story fick man se de riktiga tonårsgängen. Här var det New Yorks invandrade puertorikaner, Sharks, som mötte de tuffa amerikanarna, Jets. På 50-talet var det här mest ett problem för de riktigt stora västerländska städerna. I dag angår det många fler.Den stora betydelse som dansen har för West Side Story gör den fortfarande unik. Sångerna och danserna är lika viktiga för handlingen. Den koreografi som Robbins skapade då, 1957, är nu en grundsten i modern dans.Bernstein ville, med egna ord, "skapa en otrolig blandning av det abstrakta och det realistiska, poesi och prosa - både och - och ändå inget av det."Samtliga musikexempel är från filmmusikinspelningen 1960.Källor: Ögonvittnesbeskrivningar och böcker - bland andra Meryle Secrests Leonard Bernstein - A life på Alfred A. Knopf och Humphrey Burtons Leonard Bernstein på Faber and Faber.

In November of 2008, a 49-year-old resort motel owner went missing from a Florida island. When her car was pulled over two weeks later, the man driving it fled from police on foot, leading to a suspicious pursuit. After searching the car alongside her home, disturbing evidence was uncovered that led police to believe she had been met with foul play. And years later, they'd learn who was behind it. This is the story of Sabine Buehler. BONUS EPISODES Apple Subscriptions: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/going-west-true-crime/id1448151398 Patreon: patreon.com/goingwestpodcast CASE SOURCES 1.

A new biography captures the life of groundbreaking New York Herald Tribune reporter Maggie Higgins, who rose to prominence after her reporting on the liberation of Dachau following World War II. Her coverage of the Korean War won her a Pulitzer Prize, but her reputation as a journalist was often questioned by men in power who wondered if she was using her good looks to get the scoop. Author Jennet Conant joins us to discuss her new book, Fierce Ambition: The Life and Legend of War Correspondent Maggie Higgins.

Another day on the road — actually, on the quad — which means we jump back in time 364 days, and roll out our July 14, 2022 episode for an “encore performance.” Why July 14th? Because it turns out I was on the road last July 13th, too! It's just my way of getting a reverse-Eastern Orthodox jump on Bastille Day, I guess. Confused? Well, luckily for you, in “today's” episode, I explain where I was and why. Where I was last year, that is. Where I am this year, you'll have to wait until next reverse-Eastern Orthodox Bastille Day to find out. But here's how we spent regular Bastille Day last year: David Waldman returns today from his local tour of giant statues honoring intermediate presidents, including a quick stop at the Senator Robert A. Taft Carillon. Not yet installed: The Senator Ted Cruz Swine Pavillion, and Senator Josh Hawley Transphobia Odeum. KITM Anglophiles, Yankee Brexiteers and Boris haters have questions, and Greg Dworkin is here with the answers, and the polls! Update:  The Republican story on the 10-year-old Ohio girl raped and pregnant first was "It's all a lie!", then, "Maybe she's a slut?", then, "Oh, so her rapist was an illegal alien!", to "We should probably execute her doctor." Stay tuned! The Herald-Tribune do have standards but can't help it if their writers' are too low, or their readers' are too high. Fairfax County police drew guns on a juvenile recording on smartphone, because no one knows more than cops just how much pain those things can cause. It turns out that Mark Meadows caused all those bad things on January 6. Could Steven KG Bannon and Donald Trump be partially to blame for not reigning him in when they had the chance? Lindsey Graham, Juris Doctor, gets law-schooled. The Proud Boys, QAnon and The Oath Keepers all went where they were aimed. Senators in both parties who want to prevent the next Jan. 6 are not waiting for the select panel's verdict.

In 1959 Osprey, Florida was shaken by the murder of the Walker Family, just days before Christmas. The quadruple murder remains unsolved.

Synopsis On today's date in 1953, at New York's 92nd Street “Y,” the Walden String Quartet tackled the difficult First String Quartet of American composer Elliott Carter.   Carter's Quartet was as densely-packed with ideas as a page from James Joyce— – an author the composer cited as an influence. But, writing for the Herald Tribune, composer Virgil Thomson gave the work a glowing review: “The piece is complex of texture, delicious in sound, richly expressive, and in every way grand— – the audience loved it,” wrote Thomson. That same year Carter's Quartet won First Prize in the International String Quartet competition in Belgium -- – a contest Carter entered almost as an afterthought. “My First Quartet was written largely for my own satisfaction and grew out of an effort to understand myself,” he said. To escape from the distractions of New York, Carter retreated to the desert near Tucson to write it. No one had commissioned the Quartet, and Carter initially feared its complexity would baffle performers and audiences. His next quartet, equally challenging, won a Pulitzer Prize. Complexity would characterize Carter's music for the next 50 years—although the composer himself insisted that fantasy and invention, rather than difficulty for its own sake, had always been his goal.

The Biden official appeared on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," where she was asked about the price increases that have plagued the U.S. for more than a year. Colbert asked her to explain to his audience how inflation got out of hand when "two years ago everything seemed fine." The late-night host, known for his sycophantic boosting of President Biden and Democrats, even noted the Biden administration dismissed inflation as a "small risk" as recently as last year. Yellen argued the administration managed the COVID-19 pandemic so well that consumers felt comfortable to "splurge" on goods. Is The U.S. Headed For A Recession? Sec. Janet Yellen Gives Her Outlook- Play 0:55-3:48 There was no mention during the remarks about multitrillion-dollar spending bills that have been passed and signed during Biden's administration. She also isn't the only White House official who's blamed inflation on Americans spending recklessly or who has dismissed economic concerns. White House chief of staff Ron Klain was mocked for suggesting rising costs and supply chain issues were a "high class" problem last year. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm was also criticized for laughing at rising gas prices and offering Americans tax credits for installing solar panels on their homes. Liberal journalists like MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle have also argued consumers could afford to spend more money on groceries and utilities. In October, the Consumer Price Index rose 0.4% from September. Despite prices still being near the 40-year high, Biden told a reporter last month that the economy was "strong as hell." https://www.theblaze.com/news/ny-democrats-want-taxpayers-to-shell-out-300m-to-help-illegal-migrants-avoid-deportation-we-have-a-moral-obligation NY Democrats want taxpayers to shell out $300M to help illegal migrants avoid deportation: ‘We have a moral obligation’ Two Albany Democrats, originally from New York City, are pushing for a bill to cover the legal fees of illegal immigrants battling deportation, which would cost taxpayers roughly $300 million, the New York Post reported. Manhattan Senator Brad Hoylman (D) and Queens Assemblywoman Catalina Cruz (D) support the legislation despite estimates that it will require a $55 million down payment in 2023. Proponents of the legislation are pushing for New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) to support the proposal and commit to $100 million in funding from the state’s budget. On Wednesday, the governor committed to providing $3 million to nonprofit organizations assisting immigrants with their asylum applications. Critics of the bill expressed concern that the legal defense could help potentially “dangerous people” remain in the United States and hurt public safety. Those opposed to the measure also cited budget concerns and noted that New York City is already estimated to spend $1 billion on costs related to the influx of migrants arriving in the city. The bill would cover legal defense costs for any incarcerated immigrant, regardless of the criminal convictions that initiated their removal proceedings. Republican Assembly Minority Leader William Barclay of Pulaski stated, “Democrats’ complete failure on border security and immigration shouldn’t result in a $300 million tax on New Yorkers.” “Last year, New York City’s radical Democrats wanted non-citizens to vote in local elections,” Barclay continued. “Now they expect the public to spend hundreds of millions to provide free deportation lawyers. Their political statements do not need to be contained in the state spending plan.” https://justthenews.com/government/congress/gop-senators-withhold-support-defense-funding-until-they-get-vote-end-military GOP senators to withhold support for Defense funding until they get vote to end military vax mandate Seven GOP senators made the vow Wednesday at a Capitol Hill news conference, saying they would withhold the support if leaders of the Democrat-led chamber don't allow a floor vote on their proposal, according to NBC News. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul said the group will not vote to get on the NDAA "unless we have a vote on ending this military vaccine mandate." The libertarian-mined Paul typically votes against the act every year and is among the most critical in his conference about the federal government's handling of the pandemic, including mandated vaccinations. The senators' effort could delay final passage of the annual bill, which Congress has consistently passed, but it would not prevent the Senate from eventually voting on the legislation, NBC also reports.

Both school districts extended their mask mandates into the fall of the 2021-2022 school year.

Sarasota County Schools implemented a mask mandate in August 2021 but it was repealed in October, according to the Herald-Tribune. Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, who endorsed recently elected members who flipped the school board majorities, signed an executive order in July 2021 requiring schools to give parents to opt their students out of school’s mask mandates. The order came in response to schools implementing mask mandates in 2020, according to a press release by the governor’s office.

Howe doesn’t think the Pats would even have to trade Jones because he’s still under a lengthy, cheap rookie deal and could learn a lot from Brady. All in all, it’s an option and pure speculation at this point because no one knows for sure if Brady will truly hang up the cleats for good after this season with the Bucs.

The Biden official appeared on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," where she was asked about the price increases that have plagued the U.S. for more than a year. Colbert asked her to explain to his audience how inflation got out of hand when "two years ago everything seemed fine." The late-night host, known for his sycophantic boosting of President Biden and Democrats, even noted the Biden administration dismissed inflation as a "small risk" as recently as last year.

Janet Yellen Gives Her Outlook- Play 0:55-3:48 There was no mention during the remarks about multitrillion-dollar spending bills that have been passed and signed during Biden's administration. She also isn't the only White House official who's blamed inflation on Americans spending recklessly or who has dismissed economic concerns. White House chief of staff Ron Klain was mocked for suggesting rising costs and supply chain issues were a "high class" problem last year. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm was also criticized for laughing at rising gas prices and offering Americans tax credits for installing solar panels on their homes. Liberal journalists like MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle have also argued consumers could afford to spend more money on groceries and utilities. In October, the Consumer Price Index rose 0.4% from September.

Manhattan Senator Brad Hoylman (D) and Queens Assemblywoman Catalina Cruz (D) support the legislation despite estimates that it will require a $55 million down payment in 2023. Proponents of the legislation are pushing for New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) to support the proposal and commit to $100 million in funding from the state’s budget. On Wednesday, the governor committed to providing $3 million to nonprofit organizations assisting immigrants with their asylum applications. Critics of the bill expressed concern that the legal defense could help potentially “dangerous people” remain in the United States and hurt public safety. Those opposed to the measure also cited budget concerns and noted that New York City is already estimated to spend $1 billion on costs related to the influx of migrants arriving in the city. The bill would cover legal defense costs for any incarcerated immigrant, regardless of the criminal convictions that initiated their removal proceedings. Republican Assembly Minority Leader William Barclay of Pulaski stated, “Democrats’ complete failure on border security and immigration shouldn’t result in a $300 million tax on New Yorkers.” “Last year, New York City’s radical Democrats wanted non-citizens to vote in local elections,” Barclay continued. “Now they expect the public to spend hundreds of millions to provide free deportation lawyers.

John Silvestri is a musician and painter. His artistic ability was noticed at the age of eight when he had his first public showing in the St. Louis Art Museum. After studying art in college, he apprenticed in Italy under modern painter and sculptor, Salvatore Leto. His art has been reviewed on international art talk radio as well as in several editorials, including the Herald Tribune, USF Oracle, and The Oregonian. At the age of 12, John began to discover a musical talent as well and in 2011, his original music scored the movie Prime of Your Life which was selected to Cannes Film Festival. Currently, his rock band Audio Orchid is based in Sarasota Florida. For many years, he drew on the synergy, and at times conflict, between his life as an artist and his devotion to music. The two passions have come to fuel each other and at times harmonize. Ideally, he plays music like he paints, and when he paints, he uses realizations arrived at through music. John values laughing his ass off, enjoying life every day, and at the same time, not delaying, procrastinating, or beating around the bush of one's dreams. He believes in doing what he is passionate about, doing it now, as much as possible, as well as he can, and not bullshiting himself along the way. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cutting-for-sign/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cutting-for-sign/support

[This episode was originally released on the radio on July 20th.] We're joined once again by community activist Jack Wallace to speak on the recent pulled opinion piece from the Herald Tribune written by the wife of a Proud Boy in defense of the Proud Boys, a fascist and white supremacist organization. We also discuss the recent Moms For Liberty event in Tampa, and how Jack helped organize a counter-protest to let them know that fascists aren't welcome in the Suncoast!

Dan and Ellen talk with Tim Coco, president and general manager of Public Media of New England. Coco is known for his work as a journalist and advertising executive. He oversees day-to-day operations at the low-power FM station WHAV, which can be found at 97.9 on the radio dial if you happen to be in the Haverhill area. The station also streams at WHAV.net. WHAV was launched in 1947 by the Haverhill Gazette newspaper under the auspices of a publisher who was distantly related to the Taylor family, which then owned The Boston Globe. Coco revived the station about 15 years ago and converted it to a nonprofit, low-power FM station in 2014.  Ellen has a Quick Take on $2 million in grants awarded to seven nonpartisan news outlets in Georgia. All are led by people of color, and all serve diverse audiences. The money, which comes from The Pivot Fund, could be transformational.  Dan's Quick Take is on The Herald-Tribune. No, not that Herald-Tribune. This is the Herald-Tribune of Sarasota, Florida, which had to apologize after publishing a guest op-ed in praise of the Proud Boys, the far-right group that was part of the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol. It's a doozy.

Isabel Paterson was a staunch individualist and prolific writer. She penned eight novels and was a literary critic at the Herald Tribune for two decades. Ayn Rand called Paterson's 1943 classic, The God of the Machine, “an invaluable arsenal of intellectual ammunition for any advocate of capitalism.” Are you interested in learning about Ayn Rand's Objectivism?

Mission encre noire Tome 33 Tome 379. Le programme double de la femme tuée un recueil de poésie de Carole David paru en 2022 aux éditions Les Herbes Rouges. Pour la plupart de celles et ceux qui lisent pour la première fois un livre de Carole David, le choc est puissant. Dans Manuel de poétique à l'intention des jeunes filles (2010, Les Herbes Rouges), par exemple, on y croise bien des fantômes. De Sylvia Plath, d'Anne Sexton, de Jacques Chirac à Paul Valéry, des pieuses domestiques à Jean Seberg et son Herald Tribune, beaucoup y partagent une réalité augmentée pas toujours des plus confortable. On y trouve aussi bien l'Amérique du nord comme l'Italie dans ses livres, pays d'origine de sa famille immigrée, dans ce qu'elles ont de banal, de médiocre voire d'effrayant. Dans ce recueil, alors que la canicule estivale écrase Rome, l'écrivaine visite la ville. Dans les rues, à la gare ou au musée, en plein jour comme dans les ténèbres d'un tableau, la capitale déroule ses histoires, ses mille tragédies, son visage de mort au sourire édenté. Comme de fait, ici ou là surgissent une nouvelle fois des fantômes, ces femmes assassinées, violentées, méprisées, que la mémoire populaire a presque définitivement effacé. L'écrivaine s'offre alors un face à face sans concession, à un exercice de mémoire d'outre-punk, à circuler parmi les tombes, les monuments et les mythes fabriqués, comme l'Illustre la page de couverture: un joint se consume dans un cendrier posé sur une image pieuse. J'accueille ce soir, à Mission encre noire, une figure incontournable de la littérature québécoise, Carole David est mon invité. Extrait:« Indolents, les fils du Caravage/servent des proies liquides/sur des tables/princes déchus à rebours/décorés, indifférents/je les remercie par leurs prénoms/lorsque la nuit arrive/je demeure chaos/ma petitesse est sans bruit» Pas besoin d'ennemis par Julien Guy-Béland paru en 2022 aux éditions Héliotrope. Une mise en garde ouvre les pages de ce livre :« ici sont abordées des questions liées à la santé mentale, à la toxicomanie, aux violences conjugales et sexuelles ainsi qu'à d'autres violences systémiques.» En fait, ce texte est la résultante de plusieurs démarches de l'auteurice: Trois suivis psychothérapeutiques pour traiter son anxiété sociale, ses dépendances et ses troubles relationnels. L'attente, interminable, parfois, d'une place dans un service d'aide en dépit des coupes budgétaires et autres mesures d'austérité des gouvernements qui a conduit Julien Guy-Béland à prendre la plume. Comme le suggère l'avertissement en tête du livre, le ton est sans concession, voire à fleur de peau. Il n'est donc pas étonnant d'y trouver une charge bien senti contre un système de soins thérapeutiques qui souffre d'un manque de ressources flagrant. Julien Guy-Béland témoigne, le plus honnêtement possible, d'une période de vie de toxicomanie active. Le livre est un brûlot anti système à plus d'un titre, dans son écriture inclusive, dans sa dénonciation des méfaits du capitalisme qui préfère faire du fric au détriment de la santé mentale du plus grand nombre, mais surtout, il propose, une série de confessions douloureuses, un regard transparent sur l'expérience d'une vie marginalisée. Je vous invite à rencontrer ce soir, à Mission encre noire, Julien Guy-Béland. Extrait:« Février 2021. Evan Rachel Woods, Ashley Walter, Sarah McNeilly, Ashley Lindsay Morgan et Gabriella dénoncent les agressions psychologiques et physiques de Brian Warner, plus connu sous le nom de Marilyn Manson. Ce dernier nie tout. Pourtant, dans son autobiographie publiée en 1998, lui-même décrivait de nombreuses violences commises envers ses conjointes et des fans. «La violence motivée par la haine des femmes est profondément inscrite dans notre culture, et les hommes non seulement peuvent en commettre sans craindre de conséquences, mais leur misogynie leur sert souvent à mousser leur célébrité et gonfler leur fortune. (...) Marilyn Manson n'est que le dernier d'une longue série d'hommes qui étaient plus francs qu'il n'y paraissait.» Nous sommes bien placés pour ne pas être surpris, puisque notre groupe post-hardcore conceptuel, Skip the Foreplay, qui se réappropriait le spires côtés de la culture pop, évoluait dans une scène connexe à Manson. Nous n'avions pas d'informations à propos de ce cas particulier mais it works according to design. Ô, je le savais même à l'époque, que notre projet était wack, même si je me le rationalisais en me disant que notre registre était ironique. J'ai pilé sur mes valeurs pour du pouvoir, en collaborant avec d'autres gens prêts à faire n'importe quoi pour du pouvoir. Le second degré a le dos large. trop de mauvais humoristes nous l'ont rappelé récemment. «Ces gars font ce qu'ils font pour la même raison qui m'a mené en prison: le pouvoir», dit un des roadies de la scène principale du Warped Tour, en référence aux bands pour lesquels il travaille, dans un documentaire filmé l'été où on y a participé.»

In this exceptional episode of Sartorial Talks, Hugo welcomes Pierre Corthay, one of the most acclaimed shoemakers in the world and a man who has been awarded the title of "Master of Arts" by the French government (the highest distinction granted to an artisan in France similar to the "living treasures" in Japan).During this rare and in-depth discussion, you will discover the incredible path of a young man, who started in 1984 as an apprentice in the French League of Craftsmen "Les Compagnons du Devoir", who then won his stripes at John Lobb Paris and Berluti before spreading his own wings by buying an obscure small bespoke shoemaking workshop in Paris near Place Vendôme at the beginning of the 1990's. Pierre's solo beginnings are far from uncomplicated, especially in the early years. But things change in 1992, when world famous fashion columnist Suzy Menkes steps through the door of Pierre's tiny workshop and becomes enamored with Corthay's shoes. A few days later she publishes in the Herald Tribune, an article about a young, obscure Parisian shoemaker unknown to the general public. Moments later, the telephone of the Rue Volney workshop starts to ring, and not long after, the Sultan of Brunei places an order for 140 pairs of bespoke shoes!  At the same time, the iconic Parisian House of Lanvin signs Corthay for all its bespoke orders, turning his story into fairytale material.This is the true story of an artisan who has inspired a whole generation of young shoemakers and who has been a driving force behind the renewed interest of many gentlemen for quality shoes and for traditional craftsmanship.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/sartorialtalks)

HOW WOULD UNDERSTANDING THE PERSONALITIES OF PEOPLE AROUND EFFECT YOUR DAILY INTERACTIONS? On this episode we are joined by Merrick Rosenberg. Merrick Rosenberg is an entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and the leading expert on how personality drives behavior and success. On this episode we discuss: How to communicate with different personality types Different doesn't equal bad How to avoid your personality type working against you For places to listen, places to connect on social media, to be a guest, collaborate with or sponsor DTE visit: https://linktr.ee/DisruptTheEveryday Merrick's website: https://merrickrosenberg.com/ About Merrick Merrick Rosenberg is an entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and the leading expert on how personality drives behavior and success. He co-founded Team Builders Plus in 1991 and Take Flight Learning in 2012. He is the author of four award-winning books about tapping into the power of your personality: The Chameleon, Taking Flight!, Personality Wins, and Which Bird Are You?. In Merrick's first job out of college, he worked as a management consultant. He quickly realized that you can change the process, but nothing great happens in a dysfunctional work environment. So, back to school he went to earn an M.B.A. specializing in Organizational Development. While working on his degree, he discovered team building and he was hooked. The day after he graduated, he started Team Builders Plus, one of the first team building companies in the United States. As he began leading team building events, it became clear that personality conflicts significantly impacted team dynamics. He discovered the DISC styles in 1994 and began leading training programs to help people understand themselves and enable them to create an engaging culture. It was at this point that he began to innovate the personality styles world. By infusing team building activities into DISC training programs, he made the training more interactive and he brought the styles to life. But he felt that this was not enough, and the styles could have an even greater impact…if people could only remember them. In 2012, Merrick reinvented the DISC world by swapping out the classic letters for more visual and memorable birds that symbolized the styles. In his first book, Taking Flight!, he introduced the Eagle, Parrot, Dove and Owl styles and he changed the entire industry. With the vision to reinvent how people learn about themselves, build better relationships, and create positive work environments, Merrick founded Take Flight Learning where he certifies trainers around the world to deliver the content he and his team create. Merrick now spends his time writing, speaking, and advancing the world of increasing self-awareness and improving team dynamics by tapping into the power of the four styles. Merrick has worked with more than half of the Fortune 100 companies and has reached more than 100,000 people around the world through his speaking engagements. He has been named the CEO of the Year for New Jersey, and his company, Take Flight Learning, has been selected as the New Jersey Business of the Year, one of the Best Places to Work, and one of the Fastest Growing Companies in the Philadelphia area. Merrick is a sought-after media guest on television, radio, and podcasts. He has shared his personality wisdom on ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, SiriusXM, iHeart Radio, and Radio Disney. Merrick has been interviewed by: New York Times, Fast Company, Inc. magazine, Fortune, HuffPost, Forbes, Herald Tribune, Wall Street Journal, Parents, and Glamour.

Larry Casola is one of the last European-style, stained-glass craftsmen in the United States. He learned his craft as a hobby while working as a fireman in Long Island, New York. Larry left the fire department at age 41 and moved Casola Stained Glass Studio to Fort Myers, FL. He eventually added a few other staff. Since opening, the studio has designed and created personalized windows for homes, churches and commercial buildings. This work includes a window 60 feet wide and eight feet high at St. Mark's Episcopal Church in Palm Beach Gardens. Each panel was personalized to the wishes of the family donating it. Larry has since retired and passed the studio to his son.* Why do I mention Larry Casola? Because he is an example of Proverbs 22:29, “Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank.”(NIV) Larry approached his hobby and business wholeheartedly. He put in the time and effort to develop his skills. This allowed him to work at something he loved and build a successful business. So, don't forget to develop your skills! Even if you are in mid-career, continue to sharpen your abilities. Whether you are a carpenter, bricklayer, computer programmer, data scientist, physician, dentist, nurse, teacher, writer, business leader, or whatever your job -- invest in the time and effort to improve your abilities! *Cynthia Williams, "Stained glass studio in Fort Myers inspired by love of art, perfection," Herald-Tribune, August 1, 2021, https://www.heraldtribune.com/story/entertainment/2021/08/01/casola-stained-glass-studio-fort-myers-carries-european-style/4920362001/ Please provide feedback and suggestions at: https://www.sparkingfaith.com/feedback/ Bumper music “Landing Place” performed by Mark July, used under license from Shutterstock.

I seldom reference the amazing power that radio had during WW II, but the fact that it was the only immediate form of mass media made it a very powerful tool in uniting a nation for the common cause of winning World War II and no one was better at using radio than FDR.

On today's date in 1953, at New York's 92nd Street "Y," Walden String Quartet tackled the difficult First String Quartet of American composer Elliott Carter. In Carter's 45-minute Quartet, the four voices enter one by one, in the style of a fugue, but each voice pursues its own very individual pace and character. Carter's Quartet was as densely-packed with ideas as a page from James Joyce—an author the composer cited as an influence. But, writing for the Herald Tribune, composer Virgil Thomson gave the work a glowing review: "The piece is complex of texture, delicious in sound, richly expressive, and in every way grand—the audience loved it," wrote Thomson. That same year Carter's Quartet won First Prize in the International String Quartet competition in Belgium, a contest Carter entered almost as an afterthought. "My First Quartet was written largely for my own satisfaction and grew out of an effort to understand myself," he said. To escape from the distractions of New York, Carter had retreated to the desert near Tucson to write it. No one had commissioned the Quartet, and Carter initially feared its complexity would only baffle performers and audiences. His next quartet, equally challenging, won a Pulitzer Prize. Complexity would characterize Carter's music for the next 50 years—although the composer himself insists that fantasy and invention, rather than difficulty for its own sake, had always been his goal.

We’re pulled one way or another about macronutrients and labels, all the while missing the most important concept of all: food is medicine.

Alex and Juliette are done for now -- thank god -- but it looks like Brandon and Madisson are back together? We think? No one knows for sure, but Laura and special guest, Herald-Tribune breaking news reporter Carlos Munoz, try to figure it out. Plus they talk about their thoughts on the season overall, that glorious ending montage, drink throwing on reality shows and hopes for season 3! 

Laura is joined by a special guest this week -- Herald-Tribune entertainment reporter Jimmy Geurts! The two of them discuss Alex's highly questionable behavior, Kelsey's sweet tribute to her mom and Jimmy's relief that Laura has taken his place as Siesta Key recapper! Plus, we talk about some of the deeper stuff we'd actually like to see on the show, and whether or not we'd skip work for a week to go to Italy. 

The Herald-Tribune retail and tourism reporter talks about her Sunday column that's focused on the future of the mall.

Schools in Florida and around the nation continue to grapple with how to treat transgender students. Which restrooms and locker rooms should they use? Which gender pronouns should school employees select to refer to the students? Do other students and their families have a right to know? The Sarasota County school district has debated the issues since 2016, when some students demanded their rights not be trampled upon. This week, the district superintendent quietly released a new policy guideline for the treatment of transgender students. Herald-Tribune reporter Elizabeth Djinis joins Times reporter Jeff Solochek for a discussion on the issue, which again has heated up as the Trump administration ponders a more limited definition of gender.

Låt mig ta er med till en natt i New York. Den 26 september har just övergått i den 27:e. Året är 1957. På restaurang Sardi's är det nervöst. Per Feltzin om Leonard Bernsteins musikal West Side Story. Alla är där: tonsättaren, koreografen, sångarna, dansarna - alla. Man småpratar och väntar på morgontidningarna. Trots publikens stora jubel och vännernas ryggdunkningar vet alla att det är kritikernas ord som avgör om en uppsättning på Broadway överlever. Så kommer morgontidningarna och de börjar läsa Herald Tribune där den mest fruktade kritikern finns. Det börjar inte bra, men det tar sig. Och sen kommer några rader som kommer att leva kvar länge: "Jag har sett den mest vilda, rastlösa, elektriska dansen på ett drygt decennium. Den radioaktiva strålningen från West Side Story sänker sig fortfarande ner över Broadway denna morgon." Reaktionerna på Leonard Bernsteins West Side Story var med några få undantag positiva. Redan då talade man om en milstolpe i musikdramatikens historia. Pressen skrev att Broadway hade fått tillbaka sin mognad med West Side Story. Även om ämnet i sig inte var en skönhetsupplevelse, så var det som att West Side Story förvandlade ämnet till en upplevelse av just skönhet. Den mest betydelsefulla kritikern fanns på New York Times. Han kallade den "en djupt rörande föreställning... just så ful som storstadsdjungeln är och också gripande, öm och förlåtande." Ser vi bara till berättelsen, en modern tolkning av Romeo och Julia, har den djup, komplexitet och känslighet. Musikalen har till och med vågat sig på att delvis följa Shakespeares tragiska slut. Det är något mycket ovanligt i USA, och här lät man båda akter sluta med döda ungdomar på scenen. Det var inte den första musikalen med ett allvarligt socialt tema, men ett av de första, där samtiden fanns på scenen. Seriösa ämnen hade man oftast placerat på ett behagligt avstånd i tiden, men i West Side Story fick man se de riktiga tonårsgängen. Här var det New Yorks invandrade puertorikaner, Sharks, som mötte de tuffa amerikanarna, Jets. På 50-talet var det här mest ett problem för de riktigt stora västerländska städerna. I dag angår det många fler. Men i musiken hörde man redan då samma ambivalens hos de som kommit från de fattiga öarna som vi hittar i dag. Ska man stanna kvar eller vända tillbaka? När det gäller att spegla samtiden eller samtidsproblem på scen, finns det inget som så fort blir helt galet. En felaktig betoning, ett felaktigt varumärke eller uttryck gör att berättelsens trovärdighet raseras omedelbart. Detaljkännedomen måste vara hundra procentig. Just West Side Story tycks nästan alltid undgå den brutala desarmeringen. Den lever lika mycket och väl, oavsett vilken miljö den placerats i och oavsett vilken tid vi själva ser den i. Men det ställs mycket höga krav på de som ska vara på scenen. Sång och dans i en musikal var förstås inte ovanligt, men det nya var att samma aktörer här skulle kunna sjunga, dansa - och agera. Jerome Robbins avancerade koreografi var dessutom mycket mer än instoppade dansstycken, den var en del av dramatiken och förde ofta handlingen framåt. Förutom de äldre i musikalen, och till viss del också huvudrollerna Tony och Maria, krävdes att alla skulle kunna dansa - och kunna dansa bra! Den stora betydelse som dansen har för West Side Story gör den fortfarande unik. Sångerna och danserna är lika viktiga för handlingen. Den koreografi som Robbins skapade då, 1957, är nu en grundsten i modern dans. En intressant detalj i Robbins arbete med dansarna och sångarna var att han hade hållit Jets och Sharks åtskilda under arbetet på scenen och på fritiden. Sångtextförfattaren Stephen Sondheim kommenterade: "Jag tyckte först att det var pretentiöst, men naturligtvis var det perfekt. Utan någon som helst agg eller fientlighet, hade Robbins givit de två gängen varsin känsla av individualitet. Vi fick direkt två väldiga personligheter på scenen". Men naturligtvis skulle ingen komma ihåg berättelsen om inte musiken fanns. Leonard Bernstein har skapat en dramatiskt fungerande musik som samtidigt är lätt att omedelbart tycka om och sjunga. Maria, Tonight och Somewhere är väl sånger som närmast blivit folkmelodier, var mans egendom. Sen finns I feel pretty, America, A boy like that och danserna: Mambon, Cool och den spefulla Gee, Officer Krupke. Det är en pärlrad av nio sånger som många av oss känner igen efter bara några toner. Librettisten Arthur Laurents berättade att musiken bara flöt ur Bernstein. Han tycktes inte tänka. Han kunde konsten att förvandla den speciella folkliga New Yorkska musiken till något annat än pastisch. Och han kunde ge varje person sin egen musikaliska karaktär, menade Laurents. Bernstein ville, med egna ord, "skapa en otrolig blandning av det abstrakta och det realistiska, poesi och prosa - både och - och ändå inget av det." Det anmärkningsvärda var att Bernstein skrev West Side Story parallellt med operamusikalen Candide. One hand, one heart var ursprungligen en duett som Candide och Kunigunda skulle sjunga och Gee, Officer Krupke fanns med i Venedigscenen i Candide. Utbyteshandeln gick åt det andra hållet också. Candide fick delar av det som inte fungerade i West Side Story. Man kan också hitta förändringar under vägen. Inledningen på West Side Story var först ett militant aggressivt stycke, där både Jets och Sharks sjöng. Sedan skrevs i stället Prologen där också gängen möttes, men nu till ljudet av, som Bernstein beskrev det, "miljoner ord med vansinnigt snabb musik". Senare togs orden bort och vi fick den inledning vi har i dag, med bara en vissling och det rytmiska knäppandet med fingrarna. Jag slutar den här Klassikern med en syn från Markusplatsen i Venedig några år efter premiären 1957. Bernstein och några vänner promenerar in på Piazzan och som genom en osannolik tillfällighet börjar flera av de små musikkapellen samtidigt spela Maria. Bernstein skrattar och börjar buga sig mot folk runt omkring, men ingen känner igen honom. Det var då det. Det skulle bli annorlunda. Per Feltzin per.feltzin@sverigesradio.se Samtliga musikexempel är från filmmusikinspelningen 1960. Källor: Ögonvittnesbeskrivningar och böcker - bland andra Meryle Secrests Leonard Bernstein - A life på Alfred A. Knopf och Humphrey Burtons Leonard Bernstein på Faber and Faber. Det finns en otrolig mängd inspelningar och ljud- och filmklipp från West Side Story att köpa och se på nätet, men jag kan inte låta bli att rekommendera en enda kort svartvitt film från 60-talet. Det är Sammy Davis, Jr och slagverkaren Johnny Mendoza som gör ett medley. Fem minuter och femtio sekunder musikalitet. Länken är en av flera och deras samarbete finns också på album.

TRANSCRIPTSpeaker 1:You're listening to method to the madness on KALX Berkeley 90.7 FM. I'm your host, Stalin Huizar. And today we have with us Gus Newport, former mayor of Berkeley. Hey guys, how's it going? Fine, thank you. Good to be here. Uh, thanks for coming into the studio. Uh, and Gus is going to be with us today [00:00:30] talking about his illustrious career. He's had so many different amazing, um, experiences and achievements, a civil rights leader, uh, a beacon of the left. He's been involved in so many different things. So I wanna ask you about a few of the different experiences you've had, guests you can educate us. So first I want to start in Boston. Um, and with the Dudley Street project, it was already on the Speaker 2:way when I got there, I was a mirror of Berkeley for two terms, eight years and decided I didn't need any more. [00:01:00] I was invited to University of Massachusetts at Boston as the first senior fellow in the William in North Trotter Institute. I taught a class, um, alternative economics and public policy and people from the Dudley Street project started monitoring my class. Then I was asked to speak on several panels. It turned out, it started with a couple of guys, one in architect and one on news reporter who had discovered [00:01:30] that the poverty money that was being sent to Boston was being spent downtown to build up different areas around city hall and whatever else and wasn't getting to this part of Roxbury, whether it was real poverty, a lot of vacant lots and whatever else more is than the poverty money. What was that? It was CDB. Speaker 2:Junk is different kinds of money that came based on poverty, statistics in indexes and whatever else to upgrade, say the quality of houses, bring [00:02:00] jobs, uh, just beautified the place and whatever else that was, that was kind of money that was available to cities during that time. It had since the 60s going back to the Johnson era. So these guys put his initiative on the ballot, uh, for Roxbury to CC'd from the rest of Boston. And that blew the minds of the city. I first read about it in England, you know, through the Herald Tribune when I was over there visiting and they invited me to be on some of their early panels and things. So [00:02:30] because of what we'd done at w shoot and how East Palo Alto got formed when they're separated from Palo Alto down here. So it really was a shock to the city. And, um, they began working, engaging people, working with MIT, with department of Urban Studies and planning, gathering data and whatever else. Speaker 2:So it was a lot of vacant lots, a with a whole lot of debris on them because developers, what we [00:03:00] called the environmental racism in those days, we just dumped their debris because they didn't, didn't have to pay the tipping fees and all that, and there was no political might in these areas. So, uh, what kind of, uh, people lived in Roxbury at the time? Mainly black people from, uh, Cape Verde keep people from Haiti. Uh, some people from the Caribbean, et Cetera was like, as I recall, 30% black, [00:03:30] something like 27% Cape Verdean, another 15, 20% Latino and 10% white. And, uh, but, and this thing Hank thing happened after they started engaging and got organized, they decided they wanted to create an organization that would help turn around the city and they decided that the makeup of the boards, that community residents should control 50 plus percent of it and [00:04:00] they gave four seats to each ethnic group, didn't take it out of balance because of the numbers and the academics in Boston, which has more cows, colleges, university and place that blew their mind. Speaker 2:They said, my God, we didn't ever thought about that, but the people said we want to focus on the issues and not on each other. And so they came up with this study sheet organization that was an organization to create advocacy, planning and organizing. And because of the law in the state of Massachusetts, very sellable [00:04:30] Muse that a nonprofit can get eminent domain and 30 under certain circumstances, they said, we want to create our own master plan. And out of that master plan, they were given eminent domain authority to this day is the only nonprofit in the United States of America that was able to get that power. That's amazing. To guesthouse a little bit about, for people who don't know a lot about community development, what is a master plan or what is the purpose and function of a master plan? A master plan is to get all the data to look at the poverty index is to look at a [00:05:00] lack of jobs, crime, et Cetera, and things like that. Speaker 2:Look at the gaps, uh, take this data and create gis maps and whatever else so that you can educate everybody from people in the community to bankers to academics. We were very lucky because MIT assisted us, Tufts assisted us, Umass Boston, so we got a lot of help and they would send students to walk the streets with us to go door to door to get data so that we can create the agendas from that or whatever [00:05:30] else. But in communities like this, 70% has a household as single women and 70%. Right. And that that, that, that happens until this day. And they're shy about asking questions because they think they're not educated. They don't know. They come to find out that the questions they had were all similar. Everybody was concerned about the same thing. So this was an empowering sort of fact. We early on got a professional facilitation organization to come and teach facilitation skills to parents, [00:06:00] to young people, the small businesses, and to nonprofits so each could have a discussion and create an integrated sort of plan that became the master plan. Speaker 2:We asked the people, because most of them, their lives aren't stable because rental housing, you know, kept moving and going up. Just like we got today, almost the median cost for housing in Boston back in the eighties and those days is between 500,000 and million dollars. [00:06:30] Home-Ownership rents kept going, sky high, et Cetera, whatever else. So when you asked finally people within the master plan, what kind of housing do you want? We want affordable home ownership, if that's possible, to stabilize their lives. We willing to keep moving from place to place. And that's how we looked at the land trust. We went to the land trust. The first community land trusts in the U s was founded in southwest Georgia called new communities. And they got the idea by a group of people, including Slater, king, Martin Luther King's uncle Andy Young, [00:07:00] a guy named Dan Gel, nick who was on the Berkeley City Council from New York, but Jewish lawyer and whatever else. Speaker 2:And they had a meeting and we said a group of people to Israel to look at a plan for community land trust to create affordable home ownership into perpetuity for people who were farmers and whatever. And that's where we got the original. I do that there, the idea of preceded Israel and India, Mahatma Gandhi creating this kind of playing for people who are victims of the caste system. So we then brought [00:07:30] that over and we were able to get the banks to go along with it because we had the data, whatever else. And the banks created a community development corporation for affordable housing and one for small business. And because we challenged them. So that's when the community reinvestment that came on board. They put 50% community people on the boards and every bank put up between 500,000 a million dollars into that pot. And that's how we're able to turn this whole place around. We started out taking those vacant garden, fifth 15 acres of [00:08:00] 30 were owned by the city. They taken through tax arrears. The plan was so good, they conveyed those acres to us and we got them to mitigate the taxes. Then we use that as collateral to get a $2 million program related investment from the Ford Foundation to purchase the other 15 and all of that became collateral with other kinds of subsidies and whatever. So this is housing built into perpetuity for people with limited incomes that Speaker 1:yeah, and it's, it's so uh, it's such an interesting story, especially in today's time or we're struggling [00:08:30] with the concepts of affordable housing and the, the mayor's race here in Berkeley is kind of centered on that topic, but all throughout the bay area, it's a big deal. And what I think is so fascinating about kind of the innovations in your career, Gus, is your ability to kind of help ground up movements like this. This is very much the story of Delancey street project seems to be this facilitation of a budge, a bunch of the local neighborhood people and being able to take of their own kind of a future through the acquisition [00:09:00] of real estate and the building of this thing. For people who don't know what a community land trust is, can you explain to us kind of what does that mean? Speaker 2:Just as a nonprofit organization, which has the board, the land is taken into perpetuity by a plan to build, could be affordable homeownership, could be some co-op, it could be farms, it could be a variety of things based on what people think they most need. But that land, like I said, it's kept in the perpetuity, [00:09:30] which is 99 years to be utilized for something like that. So then private for profit developers can come in and just take it, uh, push people out or whatever else. If somebody who owns a home in Atlanta trust gets on their feet and generates better income when they sell it, they can't take out any more than 25% profit based on improvements they made. And whatever else at the house itself. They, the houses. Yeah. Right. They land is owned by the nonprofit organization. Speaker 1:[00:10:00] So it's a, it's a way to kind of create some shared ownership over us. And this was a big, you said it's uh, how big was the geographic? Speaker 2:It was 30 acres in the beginning, but it was sort of in the same area, sort of a blanket approach. It grew because other people, including people who even owned their own homes and wanted to move into it and the city came in as Dudley street to do this and all the other neighborhoods, even in a city as great [00:10:30] and as well, highly educated as Boston. And of course, you know, the financial analysis and all that stuff was actually finalized in the Kubota system in Israel and whatever else. So we had the knowledge of how to do that. And then we also had an institute for community economics, which is a national community land trust organization, which created community development. The suits that made there were banking funds available at lower income. I ended up directing ice [00:11:00] instead for community economics use after I, I ran Dudley Street. Speaker 1:Right. So I'm now 30 years later. What's the, what's kind of the epilogue of dead tissue is such an amazing project and has created, um, a lot of interest in community land trust. But how is it, what's, what's happened? The federal government a few years ago here to know Speaker 2:a program called prime neighborhoods or something like that. Dudley Street scored number one in the country. And for [00:11:30] that they get like I think 5 million a year for five years. And they were able to create their own charter schools based on planning with the community for what they wanted to see in their schools. An example of how to upgrade this cause they were able to get the best teachers in the school. They noticed that the, uh, the, uh, one, the schools, the schools for, for, for young kids, these kids were always coming home with scratches on their legs and whatever else. But, but, [00:12:00] but, but the school yard was made a CMN community convinced them to dig, get up and put sand in there. And after a while they had no more scars. So it's just common sense thinking which government school this and everybody else often doesn't think of, you know, always trying to cut corners and think they have such brilliant thing, but they're not focused on people all. Speaker 2:We had a lot of young kids who were in our, our junior group gets scholarships to Dartmouth and places like that [00:12:30] and they came back and continued to work in the area and whatever else and people began talking about that. My God, how did you help them do that? We were able to get them scholarships. That was just when student loans were starting to come online. And you know, as you young students, no student loans, it's just, it's criminal. I mean when I taught a graduate course, they, my teeth, I couldn't believe some of these young people coming out of college with student loans of 200,300 $400,000. It was just [00:13:00] terrible. So from a movement standpoint, those are the kinds of things you've got to focus on. And we're talking to Gus Newport is former mayor of Berkeley and has done so many different things. It's hard to explain them all, but we're talking about one of his major accomplishments is facilitating the devotees street project in Boston and community land trust. Speaker 2:That is still going strong to this day. One of the questions I have for you guys, kind of closing up that chapter is the governance structure. You talked about, which is really innovative of having community members who are kind of at the controls of a nonprofit [00:13:30] that owns a bunch of land. How, how did you guys set up the, a sustainable structure to keep it that way? Well, like I said, 50 plus one 51% of the all had to be community residents, but also you also had board seats for small businesses, for representatives of churches, for some nonprofits and a couple of seats. Even for elected officials though, we never filled those. Uh, and so everybody felt that [00:14:00] they had a role and you could have OK. And also the land that was conveyed to us from the city. We have, we call it four by four committee for the board representative, the four representatives from the city. Speaker 2:So we make common decisions on how to disperse that land at what time, you know, and whatever else. So it was a learning situation for everybody. So it's the way that the actual nonprofit is structured is that that structure has kept that authenticity of yes representation all these years, 30 years later. And that was written as we [00:14:30] learn new things. We would have amended from time to time, things that were more creative and more beneficial. But that's it. It's a constant analysis and learning thing. And today, do you know like the community land trust model, which is so successful in this instance? Are there a lot of other ones in the country today? There's about 400. I just came back from a conference in Park City, Utah, um, a month or so ago and it was very, very, very pleasant. A lot of people participating in such a, [00:15:00] um, we had a little bit concerns because the name of the national organization now is grounded, used to be grounded community solutions. The name got changed, the grounded solutions. And that's because three of the sponsors is Fannie may know wells Fargo and Citibank. So I'm going to go in back and challenge that. And I think with the likes of Wells Fargo and them, they ought to be glad to get whatever they can to clean up Speaker 1:their own. Yeah, we were talking to Gus Newport, former mayor Berkeley's his method to the madness on [00:15:30] KLX Berkeley 90.7 FM and Gus, let's, let's rewind a little bit in terms of, uh, your timeline of your career and talk about the time when you were elected mayor originally at Berkeley and kind of how that story came about because that was another kind of innovative time and, and uh, political, uh, environment that I think, uh, is very interesting story to tell, especially with this political season we're in right now. Speaker 2:Well, I first came to Berkeley in 1968 I was working with an organization [00:16:00] called you guys as research and Development Corporation in New York that was working with the Department of Labor on the new jobs programs and whatever else. I was sent both to Puerto Rico to do some jobs development programs as well as out here to California. And then I worked in Puerto Rico from 1971 to 74, the Department of Labor. And um, a friend of mine was running [00:16:30] federally funded programs and things for the city of Berkeley and invited me out to help them with some assistant youth develop jobs and other kinds of things. And I did a wage compatibility survey for nonprofit organizations in both Berkeley and Oakland to look at the compatibility of wages they were receiving and whatever else. And then I was put on the Planning Commission, the Police Review Commission, [00:17:00] and I was then hired back to the city, including the, I forgot what it was, another department. But I had to engage the laws of the nonprofit and community organizations. I work with BCA to reorganize their whole status. And we wrote a manifesto saying what all services city government should provide, whatever. And [00:17:30] uh, Speaker 3:yeah, Speaker 2:Berkeley's first black mayor, Wharton wide. There was an office when I got here, Berkeley had determined that it was going to take over PG and e and who have a Master Police Review Commission and Warren, why'd you move the middle and didn't do these things? So that was the first black man, right? So Ron Dellums and John George and BCA and other people asked me would I consider running PCA [00:18:00] was Berkeley to discuss this action. I still had to compete against somebody that was already a BCA member on city council. John Denton, who was a white lawyer. And we went through several weeks. You had to get two thirds of the vote before you could be the candidate. Um, I was nominated and it was funny thing because you know, Berkeley probably gets more credit [00:18:30] for being progressive city than it is. I mean, Berkeley is a good community with a population. 50% of the people had undergraduate degrees and 25% graduate degrees. Speaker 2:And there were a lot of what I call single issue liberals. They pulled on me cause they wanted somebody that was going against Warren. Why? Then of course I was also known having been a close friend of Malcolm x cause [00:19:00] I was trailing knock four days before he was assassinated and when he moved from the nation of Islam to the organization and for American unity, I was one of the founding members. So I was fairly well known for some of those things. That's why we're doing this documentary now because the country does not yet know how Malcolm and Martin Luther King will come close together and Ma Malcolm had given up violence and was moving to the civil rights movement and he and Martin Luther King were about to go before [00:19:30] the United Nations to file a suit against American hegemony, imperialism and colonialism. And one of the things we're getting this documentary is we've got a tape overhearing Jagger, Hoover, FBI saying these are the two most dangerous men in the world. Speaker 2:35 days after he made that statement, Malcolm was dead. Of course Martin Luther King got killed actually a year after he gave the speech to break the silence, you know, against the Vietnam War. So all those things, civil rights [00:20:00] and whatever else. Also teach you how to engage community development. Because when I was with the civil rights movement, I wrote the first concentrated employment training grants with department labor for Rochester, New York, my hometown and I and a guy named Bob Turner, Phd from Kansas State and a road scholar went to several cities, including Philadelphia to the, the Jewish economic vocational training and other kinds of places to look in job development and all these kinds of things. [00:20:30] So you know, you're not even thinking what are you learning what you're taking in, you're just on the run. So then you show up in Berkeley with that and you have a chance to be here. I want to ask you about that perfectly citizen actions that manifest that which was very famous. And you talk about Berkeley and I maybe having a um, Speaker 1:reputation that maybe it proceeds itself in terms of, or being a little bit more progressive than it is. But that document was very left wing, Speaker 2:right? It was. It wasn't, of course, [00:21:00] I'm not suggested. Berkeley wasn't very progressive. I'm because of cause the free speech Boohoo was founded here. Sure. About the same time as the civil rights movement and the antiwar movement and the antiwar movement. Yeah. And of course, so there was, there was, there was a lot of transition but, Speaker 1:and you were becoming mayor after a lot of those things were kind of transitioning into the 80s and a different timeline. But can you speak to a couple of the maybe revolutionary planks in that manifesto that Berkeley citizens [00:21:30] action and you as a leader kind of came to power on? Speaker 2:Well, for instance, we were the first city to divest that was on the ballot when I ran divest from South Africa in Africa. We were the first city to past domestic benefits, benefits for gay couples and stuff. What year was that? That would have been 1981 1982 and that's because there was a day, there was [00:22:00] a gay faction within the Po politics of Berkeley. And I don't know if you know the name Holly near [inaudible] who was one of the new song singers who was very close to Jane Fonda. Jane Fonda mentored her. She was a play in New York called hair, I believe it was. And Holly had her own recording company. She was gay. I was the first man on the board. Uh, going back to Tom Hayden [00:22:30] just dying. And we also work with him. And Jane Fonda actually did a fundraiser for me when I ran for mayor the first time in the day that I reported to my office. Speaker 2:When I took office, I walk in, there's all these TV cameras, Jane Fonda sitting at my desk. So it was just all these kinds of things. And there was a lot of student involvement in DCA too. We put students in. My appointed to the planning commission was a woman named Theresa Cordova who was getting her phd [00:23:00] and planning and um, she was at the Institute for Study Social Change that which was run by Troy duster who probably graduated more black and Latino PhDs than anybody. And Troy duster happens to be the grandson of Ida B. Wells. So I mean Troy was like my mentor. So I was a fellow at the Institute for Studies Change Here in Berkeley too, and he ended up the sociology department and one time. So all these things are in the mix. Speaker 1:Yeah. Well and such a fascinating story [00:23:30] in terms of the timeline, the history of what was going on. Then you got to, I think you, you very much viewed your time as mayor, as a kind of the bully pulpit to go and talk about a lot of progressive issues, not just right. Speaker 2:Very much so. For instance, getting back to the university, Harry Edwards, who's quite a spoke for us first, and you know who organized those three blacks that if raise their fists at 90 68 Olympics was on faculty and had more students attending his class. He taught [00:24:00] sports psychology and sociology, I think, and was quite ill. He had the most heavily attended Subaru who came time for him to get tenure. It was going to be a difficult thing, but, but Haman, Mike came in was the chancellor at that time and Haman said, we're going for it, but Gus, you're going to have to help us and other stuff. We did some national calling in Haman when he became chancellor, had been chair [00:24:30] of the planning school and both the law school he came to some of us with, some of the professors were progressive and said, Gus, I'm going after chancellor. He said, it's going to be difficult. They've never had a juice chancellor before. We pulled together everything we could, including national friends to assist and whatever else he became the chancellor. Speaker 1:Nice. Well it's so much, I mean, you've broken down so many barriers in your career and I, I, to [00:25:00] not end this interview without asking you about kind of where we sit today. It's 2016 and so many of the issues that you fought for in your civil rights career are still persistent today. Even though we have, we've had a black president, so we've made progress. And so I want to ask you from your seat of the wisdom and knowledge that you have, can you give us some of your, um, kind of positive thoughts about where we can take, um, our progressive society going forward [00:25:30] and kind of use a lot of the stuff that you've accomplished and consolidate those gains and go forward? Cause there's so much negativity around right now. I want to provide some positivity to people. You made a difficult, we'll use a buzz of thoughts. Um, okay. Well anyway, Speaker 2:no, I worked with Bernie Sanders and you know, the millennials were just great. I mean, uh, I was never so proud as the role [inaudible] played in movement. And a lot of them told us that after Bernie [00:26:00] didn't make it through the primary. And of course we know that there were problems in the primaries. I mean, Bernie didn't get 3 million votes that should've been to him in California, New York and other places in the Sierra delegates are a problem. Right? And, and a lot of the millennials told us they were not going to vote for Hillary because we have problems with Hillary. And with bill going back to welfare reform and NAFTA and Gatt and some things like that. And, but the old friend of mine, Jack O'Dell, who just turned [00:26:30] 93 last month was Martin Luther King's right hand man. And he wrote, um, I forget the NAACP had a, a regular paper that was created by WB Dubois freedom ways. Speaker 2:He was a co-editor. He called me from, he lives up in Vancouver, British Columbia now. And he said, brother Gus, he said, you know, I've always liked you because, [00:27:00] uh, even though you were greatly left as I was at the end, you use common sense. So I said, all right, bud, Jack, what are you getting at? He said, well, I was proud that you and Danny Glover worked for Bernie Sanders. But now the next step is the election itself. He said, remember you and I used to talk about when you got drafted in the military, when you reported to Louisiana, [00:27:30] um, Kentucky, that you weren't allowed to go and eat in certain restaurants as a black person says, yeah, remember we talked about there were places during the Jim Crow era, very close. We were people, black people were getting hung. I said, yeah, he said, we've moved past that, but if Donald Trump gets elected, we're going to go back to that. Speaker 2:He said, we may not totally agree with like Hillary, but we do at least know that she [00:28:00] won't carry us back to that and we can put our foot on her button and keep on pushing. You know, the next one we've got to go. So I said you right. So we started talking to millennials. I think looking at the polls and whatever now it looks like she's going to make it. I was sorta set back last week being in Tennessee and hearing some of these white, uh, organized people in the political move and talking about they thing's going to be violence in some of their neighborhoods or whatever else. And [00:28:30] so you have to have an analysis like Martin Luther King I always talked to about the beloved community. The beloved community basically was centered in the church. We had ministers that used to play a role out today. Speaker 2:Church doesn't play a great role in the inner city, but people shared everything. And because of segregation, blue collar, white collar, no collar, everybody lives side by side. But we're there to help one another. But I had to explain to people last week [00:29:00] that the beloved community was not an integrated community. It was a segregated community. Many of you were in the civil rights people, but you did not live in the beloved community. You lived in Peyton Dale or whatever they used to call that. Whether it was a whole lot of things going on. And that's what we got to get back to because when Mahatma Gandhi and other people were talking about nonviolence, this, that if you're going to turn around and society has to be a vision of love, Cetera, and whatever else, it's such an inspiration [00:29:30] and chair, um, at that, you know, pardon me for saying hell, can't wear it on. I buy the age, year out. We are still going so strong and a inspiration Speaker 1:to all of us. And thanks so much for coming in today guys. We'll be speaking to guests, Newport, former mayor of Berkeley. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Låt mig ta er med till en natt i New York. Den 26 september har just övergått i den 27:e. Året är 1957. På restaurang Sardi's är det nervöst. Per Feltzin om Leonard Bernsteins musikal West Side Story. Alla är där: tonsättaren, koreografen, sångarna, dansarna - alla. Man småpratar och väntar på morgontidningarna. Trots publikens stora jubel och vännernas ryggdunkningar vet alla att det är kritikernas ord som avgör om en uppsättning på Broadway överlever.Så kommer morgontidningarna och de börjar läsa Herald Tribune där den mest fruktade kritikern finns. Det börjar inte bra, men det tar sig. Och sen kommer några rader som kommer att leva kvar länge: "Jag har sett den mest vilda, rastlösa, elektriska dansen på ett drygt decennium. Den radioaktiva strålningen från West Side Story sänker sig fortfarande ner över Broadway denna morgon."Reaktionerna på Leonard Bernsteins West Side Story var med några få undantag positiva. Redan då talade man om en milstolpe i musikdramatikens historia.Pressen skrev att Broadway hade fått tillbaka sin mognad med West Side Story. Även om ämnet i sig inte var en skönhetsupplevelse, så var det som att West Side Story förvandlade ämnet till en upplevelse av just skönhet.Den mest betydelsefulla kritikern fanns på New York Times. Han kallade den "en djupt rörande föreställning... just så ful som storstadsdjungeln är och också gripande, öm och förlåtande."Ser vi bara till berättelsen, en modern tolkning av Romeo och Julia, har den djup, komplexitet och känslighet. Musikalen har till och med vågat sig på att delvis följa Shakespeares tragiska slut. Det är något mycket ovanligt i USA, och här lät man båda akter sluta med döda ungdomar på scenen.Det var inte den första musikalen med ett allvarligt socialt tema, men ett av de första, där samtiden fanns på scenen.Seriösa ämnen hade man oftast placerat på ett behagligt avstånd i tiden, men i West Side Story fick man se de riktiga tonårsgängen. Här var det New Yorks invandrade puertorikaner, Sharks, som mötte de tuffa amerikanarna, Jets. På 50-talet var det här mest ett problem för de riktigt stora västerländska städerna. I dag angår det många fler. Men i musiken hörde man redan då samma ambivalens hos de som kommit från de fattiga öarna som vi hittar i dag. Ska man stanna kvar eller vända tillbaka?När det gäller att spegla samtiden eller samtidsproblem på scen, finns det inget som så fort blir helt galet. En felaktig betoning, ett felaktigt varumärke eller uttryck gör att berättelsens trovärdighet raseras omedelbart. Detaljkännedomen måste vara hundra procentig.Just West Side Story tycks nästan alltid undgå den brutala desarmeringen. Den lever lika mycket och väl, oavsett vilken miljö den placerats i och oavsett vilken tid vi själva ser den i.Men det ställs mycket höga krav på de som ska vara på scenen. Sång och dans i en musikal var förstås inte ovanligt, men det nya var att samma aktörer här skulle kunna sjunga, dansa - och agera.Jerome Robbins avancerade koreografi var dessutom mycket mer än instoppade dansstycken, den var en del av dramatiken och förde ofta handlingen framåt. Förutom de äldre i musikalen, och till viss del också huvudrollerna Tony och Maria, krävdes att alla skulle kunna dansa - och kunna dansa bra!Den stora betydelse som dansen har för West Side Story gör den fortfarande unik. Sångerna och danserna är lika viktiga för handlingen. Den koreografi som Robbins skapade då, 1957, är nu en grundsten i modern dans.En intressant detalj i Robbins arbete med dansarna och sångarna var att han hade hållit Jets och Sharks åtskilda under arbetet på scenen och på fritiden. Sångtextförfattaren Stephen Sondheim kommenterade: "Jag tyckte först att det var pretentiöst, men naturligtvis var det perfekt. Utan någon som helst agg eller fientlighet, hade Robbins givit de två gängen varsin känsla av individualitet. Vi fick direkt två väldiga personligheter på scenen".Men naturligtvis skulle ingen komma ihåg berättelsen om inte musiken fanns. Leonard Bernstein har skapat en dramatiskt fungerande musik som samtidigt är lätt att omedelbart tycka om och sjunga. Maria, Tonight och Somewhere är väl sånger som närmast blivit folkmelodier, var mans egendom. Sen finns I feel pretty, America, A boy like that och danserna: Mambon, Cool och den spefulla Gee, Officer Krupke. Det är en pärlrad av nio sånger som många av oss känner igen efter bara några toner.Librettisten Arthur Laurents berättade att musiken bara flöt ur Bernstein. Han tycktes inte tänka. Han kunde konsten att förvandla den speciella folkliga New Yorkska musiken till något annat än pastisch. Och han kunde ge varje person sin egen musikaliska karaktär, menade Laurents.Bernstein ville, med egna ord, "skapa en otrolig blandning av det abstrakta och det realistiska, poesi och prosa - både och - och ändå inget av det."Det anmärkningsvärda var att Bernstein skrev West Side Story parallellt med operamusikalen Candide. One hand, one heart var ursprungligen en duett som Candide och Kunigunda skulle sjunga och Gee, Officer Krupke fanns med i Venedigscenen i Candide. Utbyteshandeln gick åt det andra hållet också. Candide fick delar av det som inte fungerade i West Side Story.Man kan också hitta förändringar under vägen. Inledningen på West Side Story var först ett militant aggressivt stycke, där både Jets och Sharks sjöng. Sedan skrevs i stället Prologen där också gängen möttes, men nu till ljudet av, som Bernstein beskrev det, "miljoner ord med vansinnigt snabb musik". Senare togs orden bort och vi fick den inledning vi har i dag, med bara en vissling och det rytmiska knäppandet med fingrarna.Jag slutar den här Klassikern med en syn från Markusplatsen i Venedig några år efter premiären 1957. Bernstein och några vänner promenerar in på Piazzan och som genom en osannolik tillfällighet börjar flera av de små musikkapellen samtidigt spela Maria. Bernstein skrattar och börjar buga sig mot folk runt omkring, men ingen känner igen honom. Det var då det. Det skulle bli annorlunda.Per Feltzin per.feltzin@sverigesradio.seSamtliga musikexempel är från filmmusikinspelningen 1960.Källor: Ögonvittnesbeskrivningar och böcker - bland andra Meryle Secrests Leonard Bernstein - A life på Alfred A. Knopf och Humphrey Burtons Leonard Bernstein på Faber and Faber.Det finns en otrolig mängd inspelningar och ljud- och filmklipp från West Side Story att köpa och se på nätet, men jag kan inte låta bli att rekommendera en enda kort svartvitt film från 60-talet. Det är Sammy Davis, Jr och slagverkaren Johnny Mendoza som gör ett medley. Fem minuter och femtio sekunder musikalitet. Länken är en av flera och deras samarbete finns också på album.

Why does the average U.S. college freshman reads at a seventh-grade level, according to an educational assessment report? How have we gone from Noah Webster's public school system to a socialist/progressives taken over the public school system? What happened to the proper teaching of phonics? How does Common Core fit into the current scheme of things? This and more with my conversation with Dr. Samuel L. Blumenfeld in episode 53. Dr. Samuel L. Blumenfeld was born and educated in New York City. Dr. Blumenfeld graduated from The City College of New York in 1950 and worked for ten years in the book publishing industry. He has also tutored and taught in private schools and as a substitute in public schools. Dr. Blumenfeld is one of the world's leading authorities on the teaching of reading and in 1986; he was awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws degree by Bob Jones University. Dr. Blumenfeld has spent much of his career investigating the the decline in American literacy, the reasons for the high rate of learning disabilities in American children, the reasons behind the educational establishment in America's support for sex and drug education, the reasons why so many children are labeled ADD, and why the school system refuses to use intensive phonics in reading instruction and memorization in mathematics instruction. He has spoken on education all over the world and is recognized internationally as a leader in the intensive, systematic phonics movement. Dr. Blumenfeld has authored of 11 books on education, including: "Is Public Education Necessary?" "NEA: Trojan Horse in American Education," "The Whole Language/OBE Fraud" and "Homeschooling: A Parents Guide to Teaching Children" among many others.
