| | | | THANKS TO ALL DONORS. WE MET OUR GOAL! |
| A big THANK-YOU to each and every one of the 41 donors who gave to our Impact Vine donation site to raise the last $5,000 for our new website. We met the goal of raising $2,500, which Robin Tauck and The TRIP Foundation will match to give us the $5,000 we need to finish up. We will be loading the new site with members' profiles and events during August, for a launch in September. |
| | HEAR PODCAST OF "SAVE FREEMAN HOUSES" |
| If you didn’t hear our WPKN interview show last Monday, catch it now at: bit.ly/soundcloud_freeman. Hear Maisa Tisdale (Mary & Eliza Freeman Center) talk about the implications of the 1848 Freeman Houses being placed on the National Trust's list of 11 Most Endangered Historic Places in America, Wes Haynes on the CT Trust's role in that, and Laurie Heiss (the founding executive director of the Merritt Parkway Conservancy) on what the impact on the Merritt Parkway was of being placed on that “Most Endangered List” in 2010. Jahmane, one of the artists working with Maisa to tell some of the stories of the Freeman Houses and “Little Liberia” to a contemporary audience in visual terms, talks about the team effort that he has curated to bring these stories to the fore in order to stimulate the realization of the critical importance of these houses for Bridgeport’s history, African American history and for the future economic and community development of this part of Bridgeport’s historic South End. At right, Jahmane's Unforeseen Legacy (2018, acrylic on panel, 48x36; click for larger image).
