After watching seemingly endless footage from people and reporters in Los Angeles, a rant about the militarized immigration raids that have resulted in escalating violence and federalizing the National Guard. Around the 6 minute mark, we get into the timeline of events that kicked off multiple raids in a Sanctuary City before comparing perspectives of residents with the opposing narrative being presented by the administration. The second half of the pod delves into the messy Elon v Donald breakup heard round the world, complete with timeline and reenacted online posts. We wrap up with a rapid fire of failures in fascist policies that have now been conveniently overshadowed by the L.A. raids.

From deer and beavers to “free range” pigs and goats in and around Seneca Village, what we now know as Central Park has long been home to an abundance of animals. In 1858, the city adopted the Greensward Plan and began the long process of reshaping the 843 acres of land into a park where everything—from the trees to the trails to the inhabitants—would be meticulously planned to benefit New Yorkers and to promote the city as a global metropolis among the likes of London and Paris. But this vision of Central Park embodied white elite European values, and disagreements about which creatures belonged in the park's waters and green spaces have often perpetuated systems of oppression. Illuminating the multispecies story of Central Park from the 1850s to the 1970s in Animating Central Park: A Multispecies History (University of Washington Press, 2024), Dr. Dawn Day Biehler examines the vibrant and intimately connected lives of humans and nonhuman animals in the park. She reveals stories of grazing sheep, teeming fish, nesting swans, migrating warblers, and escaped bison as well as human New Yorkers' attempts to reconfigure their relationships to the land and claim spaces for recreation and leisure. Ultimately, Dr. Biehler shows how Central Park has always been a place where animals and humans alike have vied for power and belonging. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Wir springen in dieser Folge in die Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts. New York City ist mittlerweile eine der reichsten Städte der Welt, aber im Vergleich zu den Städten Europas fehlt es der Stadt an Kultur. Das und einige weitere Gründe werden die Stadtregierung davon überzeugen, dass die Stadt vor allem eines benötigt: einen Park. Wir sprechen in dieser Folge darüber, wie das vonstattenging und weshalb nicht alle davon profitierten. //Erwähnte Folgen - GAG173: Der gefährliche Garten von Vaux-le-Vicomte – https://gadg.fm/173 - GAG316: Die Shakespeare-Unruhen – https://gadg.fm/316 - GAG385: Delmonico's und der erste Starkoch der USA – https://gadg.fm/385 - GAG82: Victor Gruen und die Erfindung des Einkaufszentrums – https://gadg.fm/82 - GAG188: Martin Couney und die Inkubator-Ausstellungen – https://gadg.fm/188 - GAG334: Rachel Carson und der stumme Frühling – https://gadg.fm/334 //Literatur - Roy Rosenzweig und Elizabeth Blackmar.

Hello and welcome back to Breakfast with Mom! Today I want to tell you about Seneca Village. Seneca Village was a community in the early 19th century located in what is now Central Park, New York City. Established around the 1820s, it was one of the first predominantly African American communities in the city. The village was home to both African Americans and some Irish and German immigrants. It would later be known as Central Park.Say What: https://apnews.com/article/missing-dog-las-vegas-found-nine-years-cb3114985d43e2ac12a5062c48447794Resources:https://www.centralparknyc.org/articles/seneca-villagehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seneca_Villagehttps://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/28/opinion/seneca-central-park-nyc.htmlhttps://www.wilderness.org/articles/blog/central-park-came-seneca-village-black-community-hidden-heart-manhattanhttps://projects.mcah.columbia.edu/seneca_village/https://www.cbsnews.com/news/uncovering-the-history-of-seneca-village-in-new-york-city/All the things: Music: "Electronic Rock (King Around Here)" by Alex Grohl https://pixabay.com/music/search/electronic%20rock%20kingLogo Artwork: Strawbeary Studios https://www.youtube.com/@StrawbearyStudios/featuredEpisode was researched, written and edited by ShanoaSocial Media: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090200010112X (formerly Twitter): @breakfastmompodEmail: breakfastwithmompodcast@gmail.comWebsite: https://breakfastwithmompodcast.com/
Grave yard. Cemetery. These are some of my favorite things! But walking through graveyards isn't just about getting your goth on. Cemeteries tell our human history—and they tell national history, too. Take central park for instance. In 1857, it was Seneca Village, a “rare haven of Black ownership” stretching from West 82nd to 89th Streets. NY took it over, seizing it for a park. And that means part of the park is also a burial ground, and tells the story of how black people were treated even in the supposedly free north. And that's just one little tidbit from a book that is sure to be near and dear to our Peculiar family: Over my Dead Body by Greg Melville. The chapters take us on a journey, via cemeteries, around the country, from the mass graves at Colonial Jamestown to Brooklyn's Green-Wood cemetery, the racially segregated Laurel Grove Cemetery in Savannah, Ga., Hollywood Forever and even a digital graveyard, i.e., Facebook. Aptly put by the NYT, the book is a social history: “What does the act of memorializing, who is remembered and who is left out, tell us about how people lived, what they valued, and the way we live now?” Also… did I mention there are cemeteries? Join us live to chat with Greg through our YouTube livestream—I can promise you a themed cocktail! Only on the PBC. Episode was recorded live April 25, 2024.

In today's episode, Tom visits the Tenement Museum on the Lower East Side to walk through the reconstructed two-room apartment of an African-American couple, Joseph and Rachel Moore, who lived in 1870 on Laurens Street in today's Soho neighborhood.Both Joseph and Rachel moved to New York when they were about 20 years old, in the late 1840s and 1850s. They married, worked, raised a family – and they shared their small apartment with another family to help cover costs. Their home has been recreated in the Tenement Museum's newest exhibit, “A Union of Hope: 1869.” The exhibit reimagines what their apartment may have looked like – and it also explores life in the Eighth Ward of Manhattan, and, specifically, within the black community of the turbulent and dangerous decades of the 1850s and 60s.This is the first time the museum has recreated the apartment of a black family – although, as you'll hear, the museum's founders had long planned for it. And the exhibit is also the first time the museum has recreated an apartment that wasn't housed in one of their buildings on the Lower East Side, but in another neighborhood. So, just who were Joseph and Rachel Moore? And how and why did the Tenement Museum choose to put them at the center of their new exhibit?

When Democrat Tom Suozzi won his special election last week, he thanked a lot of people. WNYC's Brigid Bergin reports Asian American voters were high on his list. Meanwhile, for the first time in the city's history, Staten Island will host an LGBTQ+ friendly St. Patrick's Day Parade, in addition to the original parade. Plus, tonight, the Juilliard School will present a special musical performance to honor Seneca Village, a 19th-century predominantly black community in Manhattan. Also, this weekend, a figure ice skating team from Howard University will make history as the first team from an HBCU to take part in an intercollegiate competition. WNYC's Michael Hill speaks with Sharon Cohen, founder of Figure Skating in Harlem to learn about the event.
This episode is the conclusion of Central Park, where we go through the entire history, construction, and design of the park. We start off discussing the acquisition of land, and dislocation of 1,600 residents from the area now home to the park, talk about Seneca Village, and then go into the design of the park itself. All this and more, on this week's episode.

Afrofuturism is an old idea that's reaching new people. Hollywood production designer Hannah Beachler walks us through some fantastical, imagined paths to Black liberation. There is a cosmic vision of Black freedom seen across universes from Seneca Village to Wakanda, exemplified across artistry from Sun Ra to Lil Nas X. Among the culture makers propelling the Afrofuturism movement is Hannah Beachler, an Academy Award-winning production designer and lead curator of the exhibit Before Yesterday We Could Fly: An Afrofuturist Period Room at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Beachler – who's worked on box office films like “Black Panther,” “Moonlight” and Creed,” as well as Beyonce's “Lemonade” visuals – joins host Kai Wright to share how Afrofuturism calls on our history to reimagine the next steps in our journey.

This week my briefings were all related to my visit to the Metropolitan Museum of Art where they have a number of exhibits representing the black experience in art. Ceramic Face Vessels Museums have been making an effort to reset the balance of their exhibits and the artists promoted. It's part of the response to the social justice movements and subsequent conversations about the lived experience of non-white and other unrepresented artists. The Metropolitan Museum of Art had several exhibits that highlighted previously overlooked artists. One of my favorite exhibits were ceramic face vessels. If you're visiting (or planning to visit) the Metropolitan Museum of Art, be sure to check out my secret hack that will allow you to skip the long lines at the main entrance. Seneca Village Artists I checked out the new exhibit called Afro-Futurism at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. That's where I learned about Seneca Village. It was a thriving community until the land was appropriated for the park and the museum. The exhibit attempts to portray what might have come from the artists if the village had been permitted to thrive. I'd love it if you'd leave me a review for the Artpreneur Alexa skill. If you do, email a screen shot to hello@schulmanart.com and we'll send you my eBook Unlocking Your Style as a thank you. Representing the Black Experience Through Sculpture While at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, I came across an exhibit I was not expecting called Why Born Enslaved. It's a single sculpture by artist Jean Baptist-Carpeaux. He created this sculpture after emancipation in America and 20 years after slavery had been abolished in France as well. The sculpture is beautiful and it's also a reminder that this woman was depicted as a slave in what could be considered an example of a white man's vision of a woman in bondage. It's a good reminder that context is always a part of the artist's vision. For more on that topic, check out two great podcast conversations: How to Be an Anti-Racist Artist and Poverty Mindset, both with artist Erica Courdae. Race and Winslow Homer I visited this exhibit with two other artists from the incubator. We all loved his painting called Cotton Pickers. It's a beautiful painting and we all felt that Homer depicted the two women in a powerful way without trying to romanticize the era. His watercolors are all realistic, and he captures the expressions of the people in his paintings in a realistic way. If you'd like to learn to paint watercolor portraits you can get my new Portrait Painting eBook (free!) that has my 5 steps, plus my recommended list of supplies to get you started. Get Paid to Write Poetry When I left the Metropolitan Museum of Art, I walked past a man with a typewriter and a sign that said poems $2. I was intrigued and asked him to write me a poem. He asked me to share a bit about myself and he wrote a poem just for me. You can follow him on Instagram at j.d.b My book, Artpreneur The Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Sustainable Living from Your Creativity, is now available for pre-sale. It's for poets and artists everywhere.

Season five begins with saxophonist Abraham Burton. During the pandemic, photographer and engineer Jimmy Katz produced an informal concert series at the sight of the historically significant Seneca Village in Central Park. One of the concerts that Katz recorded was a trio performance featuring Burton, drummer Eric McPherson, and bassist Dezron Douglas. This energetic performance is available as The Summit Rock Session at Seneca Village.
Today's episode is with landscape architect, designer, urbanist, and public artist Sara Zewde. Sara is the co-founder of Studio Zewde– a design firm practicing landscape architecture, urban design, and public art, as well as an assistant professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Design. In this episode, she shares how design has been leveraged as a tool of oppression and how everyone must be involved in the process of thinking about the world they want to create. We explore the controversial origins of landscape architecture along with topics that range from Hurricane Katrina not only being a natural disaster but a political failure that ignited her curiosity about the land, architecture being built on the backs of Black women, and ultimately the bold moves we should be making now to engage with the environment. Sara's story introduces you to the origins of architecture that have been omitted and challenge us to participate in the design of being.

EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS: https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com TCG PROPER This past week on TCG we wrapped up our stalker series… for now… with the incredibly suspenseful, yet deadly love triangle of Dave Kroupa, Liz Golyar, and Cari Farver. Where one of the three, was actually dead the whole time. And we closed the episode out with the story of Eric Ryan Johnson, an 18 year old, obsessed fan of an underaged Tik-Tok star, who wound up on the wrong end of a confrontation with her protective father. This wednesday's TCG release will be a patreon exclusive, featuring the insane story of Pam Hupp, which btw, is an excellent counter argument to the ol true crime adige, “The Husband Did It”. SandU Now for this week on Strange and Unexplained, we wanted to give you guys a little known history lesson in the nearly lost, and almost forgotten, Seneca Village. A pre-civil war village of mostly african americans, that inhabited the area in which we now know as central park, that's right, THAT central Park!. A Village that the American government removed in a cruel and unfair way to make room for their first Metropolitan area park. But for this next week, all you freeloaders out there will be getting your monthly dose of Strange Shorts with me and Andy, while all our Patreon members will be filling their ears with SandU Stories Chapter 15. Where our listeners will be experiencing a devilish haunting, set in an early catholic church on the outskirts of civilization. A true ghost story if you will. JTB For JTB on Friday, it was open mic night for the patrons and we got into all types of topics. Shitty jobs, video game likes and dislikes, scary ass animals, even what it might be like to roll with the big man himself, Shaq. And also naps, cause, who doesn't need a nap at this point. 5 Min Murder and Fantasy Football And for all our Lorne loyals out there, the 5 min murder show was back this week with the case of Derrick Comrie, whos seemingly random murder was finally solved, due to the help of a deck of cold case playing cards. Last but not least, full house fantasy football hit you guys with this week's breakdown of the AFC North in another offseason episode. Before i go i want to remind everyone of our patch of the month! This month's patch will go on sale, 4/20, only on patreon, and speaking of ptareon…we will also be dropping 8 episodes of Higher Thoughts season 2 at 12:00am est on…you guessed it…4/20.

In 1825, before the civil war and the emancipation proclamation, a 25-year-old black man named Andrew Williams bought land in the middle of Manhattan. The area was countryside at the time and offered a reprieve from the overcrowded and often dangerous city life of lower Manhattan. Two years later when an end to slavery was announced, more black families followed Williams to the islands lush countryside. And thus Seneca Village was born, a community ahead of its time, and one that time almost forgot…almost….

In this episode, Gem Fletcher chats to artist Donavon Smallwood who uses the camera as a means of exploring humankind. Through intimate images that transcend surface, he cultivates a deeper sense of consciousness. Despite only shooting for a few years, Donavon has crafted his own visual language, one rooted in a community and a connection with the divine. In Languor, his first book - an ode to NYC's Central park - he accentuates the beauty and stillness of nature as well as creating some powerful encounters with strangers. With the pandemic and the history of Seneca Village in mind, the project explores hidden histories and how they impact belonging. The work is an examination of ideas about nature, home, tranquillity, and escape. In this conversation, we discuss Donavon's creative process and journey in the industry so far. We talk about balancing commercial, personal and editorial work, influences and his hopes for the future. Follow Donavon on Instagram @xdonavon Follow Gem @gemfletcher on Instagram.

In this episode we sit down with Everyday Environmentalism's own Maddy Aubey! Maddy is a PhD archaeology student at UCLA who tells us about her undergraduate thesis: “Visions Underfoot: Seneca Village and the Poetics of Remembrance.” It's an interdisciplinary project that combines archaeology, history, and poetry. Maddy used physical objects found by archaeologists at the Seneca Village dig site as a way to creatively ponder the interior lives of the individuals who called it home. This is Part II of our series of episodes on Seneca Village.

Did you know before Central Park was built a rural community of African Americans owned property & built homes there? They were displaced to build the park & it took well over a century for New Yorkers to rediscover Seneca Village. This episode features Dr. Nan Rothschild, a historical archaeologist and Professor Emerita at Columbia University who worked on the team that excavated Seneca Village, a predominantly African American community that was displaced to build Central Park in the nineteenth century. We discuss why Seneca Village is a historically significant site and what it took to convince the reluctant NYC Parks Department to allow an excavation to take place, among many other fascinating topics. Dr. Rothschild has done archaeological work in New York City and the American Southwest, and most of her research concerns the expression of social realities in materiality, focusing on gender, ethnicity, race and social class.To learn more about Dr. Nan Rothschild's work, visit this link: https://anthropology.columbia.edu/content/nan-rothschild *** Everyday Environmentalism is a podcast that tells past and present stories about "urban nature" in New York City.

Seneca Village was a place in the middle of Manhattan. For 30 years, a collection of Black people were there chillin and minding their business. White people got together, underpaid them for their land, and made Central Park. If that description doesn't make you listen, I don't know what will.
