Staff Merit Award: Paige Muehlenkamp-McHorse

“I believe so much in student involvement — the activities outside the classroom are what make you feel like you belong to a campus. I enjoy being a part of helping students feel connected. Our program helps a student feel like they belong.”

Paige Muehlenkamp-McHorse Assistant Director of Off Campus and Outreach, New Student Services

When the Division of Student Affairs identified a need to support students living off campus in 2018, Paige Muehlenkamp-McHorse stepped in to lead the newly-created off-campus initiative. Through programs, events and resources, she educates students in several ways including getting to know Austin, local emergency resources and the housing marketplace. The Division is honoring her with a Texas Parents Staff Merit Award.

In her four and a half years, Muehlenkamp-McHorse has grown the initiative to include renter education, neighborhood and housing descriptions, and living off campus, finding a roommate and tips for creating a budget. The housing marketplace website, operated by a third-party, has listings from the surrounding area, filter options to search by price, rooms, location and bus stops, and allows for students to list their rooms for sublet for other students.

“Paige understood what students were looking for since she was the one to answer their calls during orientation when they were scrambling to find a place to live with their families. Now instead of just generally pointing them in the right direction, she teaches them how to use the marketplace and search to find the best option,” shared nominator Desiree Alva, director of student programs and assessment in New Student Services.

Affinity to one’s university has a lot to do with their school experience, but also the memories they have off campus. Muehlenkamp-McHorse saw a need to implement the aUsTinite Program to introduce students to Austin. It encourages and empowers students to get involved off campus, helping students feel at home during their time in Austin. Through participation in events, 1,800 students have developed skills to navigate the city, maintain connections to campus and give back to their community.

Recognizing the effectiveness of student-led programming, Muehlenkamp-McHorse hired Student Neighborhood Liaisons to assist with planning and events. For many of these student employees, this is their first "real job.” Through her mentorship, they learn marketable skills like time management, program planning, professionalism and teamwork.

“Our commitment to support each student to Live the Longhorn life extends beyond the Forty Acres. Paige has helped build the success of the off-campus from the ground up by listening to students and putting their needs at the core. This initiative focuses support on the student development and academic success of our students who live off campus,” said Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students Soncia Reagins-Lilly.

Congratulations to Muehlenkamp-McHorse who was honored alongside two other recipients – Sara Kennedy and Bob Vargas – at the annual Team Appreciation and Celebration on Jan. 25.

The Weepy Voiced Killer

TW: Crime Scene Photos, link to 911 calls

At Midnight on December 31st, 1980, police in St. Paul, Minnesota received a phone call detailing a murder. The voice was the first of many calls they would receive throughout the next few years, guiding them to Malberg Manufacturing Company machine shop because there was “a girl hurt there.” Upon police arrival, they found the body of 20-year-old, Karen Potack. The scene was grotesque in nature. She was lying naked in the snow and had been bludgeoned more than 10 times with a tire iron. She had been beaten to the point her skull was cracked open, exposing her brain; but she miraculously survived. Potack had apparently come into the city for a New Year’s Eve party with her sisters, leaving around midnight. She then wandered around the city intoxicated when she crossed paths with her assailant. Her injuries were so bad that she sustained multiple brain injuries and could not identify her attacker. 

On June 3rd, 1981; a group of teenage boys found the body of 18-year-old, Kimberly Compton. The assailant later contacted Police in St. Paul again, pleading on the phone call: “God damn, will you find me? I just stabbed somebody with an ice pick. I can’t stop myself. I keep killing somebody.” His strange— almost weepy— voice in both calls, dubbed him the Weepy Voiced Killer in the media. Upon arriving at the scene, they discovered 18-year-old, Kimberly Compton. She was stabbed 61 times with the ice pick. Investigators were able to successfully trace the call to a pay phone across from a bar on the corner of St. Peter Street and the Bus Depot on 9th. Two days after the discovery of her body, police received another call; stating that he didn’t mean to kill Compton and that he would try not to kill anyone else. Part of the tape was released to the public in hopes that someone would be able to identify the voice. But the police lines were flooded with calls, which none seemed to be useful in identifying the man. 

On July 21st, 1982, Carol Kellogg had driven to her best friend, Kathleen Greening’s, home in Roseville. They were scheduled to leave St. Paul on a vacation to Macinac Island. Carol had knocked on the door and let herself in when nobody answered the door. She called out for Kathleen and began to search room by room when there was no answer. Kellogg discovered Kathleen Greening’s body face up in the bathtub with her knees bent towards the front of the tub. Initially, her death was ruled as an accident. It wasn’t until years later, that her actual murdered would be linked to her case. 

On August 6th, 1982, another body was found by a newspaper carrier on his route along the Mississippi River and 29th Street. She had been stabbed to death, and was identified as 40-year-old, Barbara Simons. The night before she had been at a bar called, the Hexagon. Simons apparently had offered a man she had met at the bar a cigarette and had told the waitress, “He’s cute. I hope he’s nice, since he’s giving me a ride home.” Again, the police received a call from the weepy voiced man, saying; “Please don’t talk, just listen… I’m sorry I killed that girl, I stabbed her 40 times. Kimberly Compton was the first, over in St. Paul.” Police wanted to talk to the man that had given Barbara a ride home the night before (August 5th, 1982). Witnesses described him as being in his 40’s, around 6 feet tall and 185 pounds. He was also said to have a dark complexion and receding black hair. 

As police attempted to track the man down, another victim was attacked. On August 21st, 1982, 21-year-old, sex worker, Denise Williams was approached by an unidentified man and the two arranged a price for her services. Denise then hopped into his car, she recalls him finishing very quickly and thinking that he may want to do something else after a few moments. She had noticed the man had turned onto a dead-end road, driving through a dark and suburban area, and realized her life was in danger. She says that she then began to look around after realizing that she did not have a weapon with her. She saw a glass bottle lying at her feet and thought she would use that if he tried anything. The man lunged at her with a screwdriver and stabbed her a total of 15 times before she was able to process what was happening. William’s then reached for the glass bottle lying on the floor of the car and smashed the man over the head with it, causing him cuts to the hand and face. Which undoubtedly saved her life as she was able to flee his car. Denise’s screams drew the attention of a nearby man who was able to wrestle with him, but ultimately caused the man to flee the scene. The man then returned to his apartment and decided his wound needed medical attention. He phones the St. Paul fire department, who discovered “aural similarities” to the man who had been calling police about the killings in the area.

The man was identified as 37-year-old, Paul Michael Stephani. He grew up in Austin, Minnesota and moved to St. Paul in the 60’s. He had worked as a hospital janitor and a shipping clerk. He was not able to keep a job and blamed his epilepsy, which he apparently suffered from an older job. After losing his employment at Malberg, he returned to the area around the site full of anger. This is where he met Karen Potack. Stephani said, “When I picked her up, she had no jacket and I thought I’d take her for a cup of coffee. I just wanted to warm her up and I guess my mind snapped or something.” Stephani was arrested and charged with attempted second-degree assault and with the murder of Barbara Simons. There was not enough evidence to charge him to the other murders. During the trial of Simons’ muder case, Stephani's ex-wife, sister, and a woman who lived with him testified that they believed the hysterical caller revealing the attacks was Stephani. Those observations, alone, were not enough to identify Stephani as the Weepy-Voiced Killer since the hysterical crying distorted the voice. He was sentenced to 40 years in prison. 

In 1997, years after his arrest, Paul Stephani confessed to the murder of Kim Compton after discovering he only had a year to live due to skin cancer. He also confessed to the murders of Barbara Simons and Kathleen Greening. Although he was charged in Simons murder, he had never outrightly confessed to it. He was also never a suspect in Kathleen’s killing, but he was able to provide intimate details of the murder that only the killer would know. Furthermore, they were able to find the name, “Paul S.” in Kathleen’s address book with Stephani’s number. He also confessed to the beating of Karen Potack in 1980. 

In 1998, Paul Stephani died at the Oak Parks Heights Maximum Security Prison.

Rash of mass shootings stirs US fears heading into summer (AP) Two people were killed and at least 30 others wounded in mass shootings overnight in three states, authorities said Saturday, stoking concerns that a spike in U.S. gun violence could continue into summer as coronavirus restrictions ease and more people are free to socialize. The attacks took place late Friday or early Saturday in the Texas capital of Austin, Chicago and Savannah, Georgia. In Austin, authorities said they arrested one of two male suspects and were searching for the other after a shooting early Saturday on a crowded pedestrian-only street packed with bars and restaurants. Fourteen people were wounded, including two critically, in the gunfire, which the city’s interim police chief said is believed to have started as a dispute between two parties. In Chicago, a woman was killed and nine other people were wounded when two men opened fire on a group standing on a sidewalk in the Chatham neighborhood on the city’s South Side. In the south Georgia city of Savannah, police said one man was killed and seven other people were wounded in a mass shooting Friday evening.

Summer camps return but with fewer campers and counselors (AP) Overnight summer camps will be allowed in all 50 states this season, but COVID-19 rules and a pandemic labor crunch mean that many fewer young campers will attend, and those who do will have to observe coronavirus precautions for the second consecutive year. “Camp might look a little different, but camp is going to look a lot better in 2021 than it did in 2020, when it didn’t happen,” said Matt Norman of Atlanta, who is getting ready to send his 12-year-old daughter to camp. Even though most camps will be open, reduced capacity necessitated by COVID-19 restrictions and the labor shortage will keep numbers well below a normal threshold of about 26 million summer campers, said Tom Rosenberg of the American Camp Association.

Mexico says COVID-19 has affected a fourth of its population (Reuters) About a quarter of Mexico’s 126 million people are estimated to have been infected with the coronavirus, the health ministry said on Friday, far more than the country’s confirmed infections. The 2020 National Health and Nutrition Survey (Ensanut) showed that about 31.1 million people have had the virus, the ministry said in a statement, citing Tonatiuh Barrientos, an official at the National Institute of Public Health. According to Barrientos, not all of the people in the survey’s estimate necessarily showed symptoms. The survey was based on interviews with people at 13,910 households between Aug. 17 and Nov. 14 last year, and confirmed preliminary results released in December.

Peru on edge as electoral board reviews result of disputed presidential election (Guardian) Peru was on a knife-edge on Friday as its electoral board reviewed ballots cast in the presidential election, after a challenge to the tally by the losing candidate Keiko Fujimori. The final tally gave the leftist teacher Pedro Castillo a razor-thin 50.17% to 49.83% advantage over his rightwing rival Fujimori, which amounts to about 60,000 votes. However, the country’s electoral authority has yet to confirm the win, and Fujimori, the scion of a controversial political dynasty, has refused to concede. She alleges fraud, even though national and international observers said the vote was clean, and has called for up to 500,000 votes to be nullified or reexamined, forcing the electoral board to conduct a review of ballots.

For Cornwall, G7 summit brings disruption (AP) Towering steel fences, masses of police, protests on the beach: The Cornish seaside’s turquoise waters and white sandy beaches are looking decidedly less idyllic this week as leaders of the Group of Seven wealthy democracies descend for a summit. U.S. President Joe Biden and leaders from Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Japan are arriving for three days of talks starting Friday at the tiny village of Carbis Bay, near St. Ives in Cornwall. The region is a popular holiday destination in the southwestern tip of England. Locals may be used to crowds and traffic jams during the peak summer tourist season, but the disruptions caused by the summit are on another level. A naval frigate dominates the coastline, armed soldiers guard the main sites and some 5,000 extra police officers have been deployed to the area. Authorities have even hired a cruise ship with a capacity of 3,000, moored offshore, to accommodate some of the extra officers. A main road is closed for the whole week, and local train lines and bus services have been shut down. A 3-meter (10-foot) tall metal fence nicknamed the “ring of steel” has been erected around Treganna Castle in Carbis Bay, where world leaders will stay. Security is also tight in the nearby town of Falmouth, the main base for international media covering the summit.

World leaders are in England, but beautiful British beaches have stolen the show (Washington Post) When President Biden shared a photo to Twitter on Thursday of him standing alongside British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and gazing out onto an unspoiled, sandy white beach from the Group of Seven summit in Cornwall, England, the post was supposed to be a tribute to the “special relationship” between the United Kingdom and the United States. But to many, it was the image of the picturesque coast that stood out. It looked somewhat suspicious. Too good to be true. Others questioned the authenticity of the scene, wondering whether it was photoshopped. Although it is true that some of Britain’s beaches have a reputation for pebbles, angry seagulls that steal food from unsuspecting tourists and diapers that float in murky waters, the county of Cornwall boasts some of the country’s best seaside destinations—complete with calm, clear waters that are perfect for swimming in and long stretches of soft sand that attract families from around the world. Carbis Bay is one of several beaches that make up St. Ives Bay, which, according to the Cornwall tourist board, is considered by the “Most Beautiful Bays in the World” organization to be one of the world’s best. The bay is described as being “surrounded by sub-tropical plants and lapped by turquoise waters.”

Ransomware’s suspected Russian roots point to a long detente between the Kremlin and hackers (Washington Post) The ransomware hackers suspected of targeting Colonial Pipeline and other businesses around the world have a strict set of rules. First and foremost: Don’t target Russia or friendly states. It’s even hard-wired into the malware, including coding to prevent hacks on Moscow’s ally Syria, according to cybersecurity experts who have analyzed the malware’s digital fingerprints. They say the reasons appear clear. “In the West you say, ‘Don’t . . . where you eat,’ ” said Dmitry Smilyanets, a former Russia-based hacker who is now an intelligence analyst at Recorded Future, a cybersecurity company with offices in Washington and other cities around the world. “It’s a red line.” Targeting Russia could mean a knock on the door from state security agents, he said. But attacking Western enterprises is unlikely to trigger a crackdown. The relationship between the Russian government and ransomware criminals allegedly operating from within the country is expected to be a point of tension between President Biden and Russia’s Vladimir Putin at their planned summit in Geneva on Wednesday. The United States has accused Russia of acting as a haven for hackers by tolerating their activities—as long as they are directed outside the country.

Pandemic relapse spells trouble for India’s middle class (AP) India’s economy was on the cusp of recovery from the first pandemic shock when a new wave of infections swept the country, infecting millions, killing hundreds of thousands and forcing many people to stay home. Cases are now tapering off, but prospects for many Indians are drastically worse as salaried jobs vanish, incomes shrink and inequality is rising. Decades of progress in alleviating poverty are imperiled, experts say, and getting growth back on track hinges on the fate of the country’s sprawling middle class. It’s a powerful and diverse group ranging from salaried employees to small business owners: many millions of people struggling to hold onto their hard-earned gains. The outbreak of the pandemic triggered the worst downturn since the Great Depression of the 1930s and as it gradually ebbs, many economies are bouncing back. India’s economy contracted 7.3% in the fiscal year that ended in March, worsening from a slump that slashed growth to 4% from 8% in the two years before the pandemic hit. Economists fear there will be no rebound similar to the ones seen in the U.S. and other major economies.

‘Xi Jinping is my spiritual leader’: China’s education drive in Tibet (Reuters) Under clear blue skies, rugged peaks and the spectacular Potala Palace, one image is ubiquitous in Tibet’s capital city Lhasa: portraits of Chinese President Xi Jinping and fellow leaders. China is broadening a political education campaign as it celebrates the 70th anniversary of its control over Tibet. Civilians and religious figures who the government arranged to be interviewed on the five-day trip pledged loyalty to the Communist Party and Xi. Asked who his spiritual leader was, a monk at Lhasa’s historic Jokhang temple named Xi. “I’m not drunk ... I speak freely to you,” said the monk named Lhakpa, speaking from a courtyard overlooked by security cameras and government observers. “The posters [of Xi] coincide with a massive political education programme which is called ‘feeling gratitude to the party’ education,” said Robert Barnett, a Tibetan studies veteran scholar at the University of London’s School of Oriental and African Studies.

Long overlooked, Israel’s Arab citizens are increasingly asserting their Palestinian identity (Washington Post) Growing up in an Arab village in northern Israel in the 1990s, Mahmoud Abo Arisheh was sure of at least two things: He was Israeli, and he was not allowed to talk politics. “Be careful, or the Shin Bet will get you,” his parents told him, referring to Israel’s domestic security service. Decades later, much has changed: Abo Arisheh is a lawyer, a poet and a theater director in Jaffa. He attends protests and talks politics freely—in Arabic, Hebrew and English. And while his citizenship may remain Israeli, the identity most dear to him is that of a Palestinian. “I didn’t know anything about being Palestinian,” said the 32-year-old, “but then I opened my eyes.” And now, it seems, so are many others. In just the past month, Palestinian citizens of Israel—also known as Israeli Arabs—have risen up in mass, nationwide demonstrations to protest Israeli evictions and police raids. They have been arrested by the hundreds following some of the worst communal violence between Arabs and Jews in Israel’s post-independence history. For a community that is often overlooked despite numbering nearly 2 million people—or about 20 percent of the Israeli population—these are momentous days indeed.

Nigerian police fire tear gas to break up protests over rising insecurity (Reuters) Police fired tear gas and detained several demonstrators in the Nigerian cities of Lagos and Abuja on Saturday during protests over the country’s worsening security situation, Reuters witnesses said. Anger over mass kidnappings-for-ransom, a decade-long Islamist insurgency and a crackdown on protesters in Lagos last October has fueled demands for the government of President Muhammadu Buhari to do more to tackle violence and insecurity. Reuters witnesses in Lagos and Abuja saw police shooting their guns into the air and firing tear gas into the crowds to disperse the demonstrators, who held placards and chanted “Buhari must go”. Officers were also seen smashing mobile phones confiscated from protesters, who also denounced the country’s 33.3% unemployment rate.

Hub Fans Bid Summer Welcome

Summer is inevitable.

It does not care if we are ready for it. The progression of time measured in hours, days, weeks, and months or other markers leads to its arrival. 

And here it is, bright and hot.

Every year I find that its presence is felt a bit more acutely.

When I woke up on my trip across the country 25 years ago, I always wondered what each summer day would bring. There was so much to do, so many new sidewalks, and the hope of new conversations.

I still feel that excitement, even if it does take me a bit longer to get up, aided by the promise of coffee to help shake things loose.

In that spirit of shared urban experiences, I recently asked a few Boston friends to tell me about what they like to do in the summer.

Their words inspire me as my own work continues this summer on my book.

* * * *

Stroll on the Greenway - Running between Chinatown and the North End the Greenway includes lots of fun spots in between. Take in the changing plantings, what’s blooming, what’s about to. Find your new favorite art. Watch the clever birds flocking in the trees around this “Harbor Fog” sculpture. They‘ve figured out the cool fog is motion-activated. On hot days, they await the next walkers and then swoop down through the cool mist.

At the North End, grab lunch at the Boston Public Market (buck a shuck or lobster rolls at Red’s Best, Ramen at Noodle Lab two faves) and eat in or picnic in the park.

Speaking of the North End, grab a sandwich at Monica’s on Salem St and maybe even a split of wine along the way for an impromptu picnic. Don’t forget the best cannoli from Maria’s.

At the other end, Chinatown holds many delicious treats, too. Relax in the garden, and take a photo safari capturing the iconic images like the paifang or gate, the fountain, the roast ducks hanging in the windows, or numerous murals. (If you want to learn more and taste more, come join me on a Chinatown Tour!)

Harbor Walk is the bright point in the Seaport development boom. Enjoy the fire pit while watching the sailboats on the harbor.

The ICA has a beautiful view, and built in steps. Summer Thursdays it’s the place to be for free music concerts.

https://www.icaboston.org/calendar/harborwalk-sounds

Taking a walk along the Charles or in the Public Garden. Bring your phone or camera and snap some IG ready or postcard shots. Check the fountain commemorating the advent of ether. Imagine the early days of surgery? Yikes.

It’s a beautiful fountain and a nice corner of the park. (Arlington and Marlborough, in case you did not know)

Admission is free to the BPL and the BPL offers discounted and free passes to many museums in the city (plan ahead). The Gardner is free on some days and many discounts apply (is your name Isabella? You get in free! Is it your birthday? Free!) check both sites for more details.

Jacqueline Church, is the founder of Boston Chinatown Tours. She can be found Between Dumplings, strolling the Greenway, the harbor  walk, or otherwise eating and drinking her way around the city.

A concert by the Landmarks Orchestra on a Wednesday evening at the Hatch Shell on the Charles River Esplanade in July or August. These free concerts are a great treasure in our city and they are an excellent way to spend an evening. It is beautiful to watch the sun go down over the Charles River as well while listening to some excellent music.  

Another great summer activity is the Dewey Square Thursday evening block parties on the Greenway.  Admission is free and the beer and wine is cheap and the setting is energetic.  

It's a nice way to end the day or start the night.

Adam Castiglioni is a Boston hospitality expert.

You can buy snacks aboard the Harbor Islands ferries, but that’s a rookie move.

Varsity level is this: stop for your favorite bagel along the way, arrive at Long Wharf early enough to snag a copy of Spare Change News and lounge in one of the Adirondack chairs inexplicably placed seaside.

The bagel is for once you’re on the boat, watching the skyline shrink as you approach Spectacle Island. But it never goes away.

There’s plenty to see on the island - the sea glass, the nature trails - but the city’s most peaceful summer moment is to be found laying afloat in the harbor, partially submerged, watching that skyline and heading only waves, feeling both relaxed and energized, linked to both the modern city and the timeless ocean, at once a part of the city and refreshingly apart from it.

Katie Lannan reports on Massachusetts political matters for Statehouse News.

My grandfather used to say that South Boston was the city’s best kept secret.  The neighborhood is surrounded by Boston Harbor, we are close to downtown, and it’s rich in history, making it one of the best neighborhoods around.

Taking a walk on Day Boulevard along the beaches is a simple summer joy. Start at Carson Beach and walk your way along the beach line all the way out to Castle Island.  I always plan to stop at Sullivan’s for some fried clams or an ice cream.

On Thursday evenings in the summer you can enjoy a sunset tour of Fort Independence.  Free tours are also available on Saturdays and Sundays from 12pm-3pm. Another Southie summer bucket list item for me is to to head to Coppersmith’s Airdeck.

This gorgeous spot has a view of the city skyline, tasty food, and pitchers of red and white Sangria served via a vintage Airstream trailer-turned-full service bar. It’s a bit of heaven right here in Southie.

Maureen Dahill is the publisher of Caught in Southie and a South Boston resident.

The best place in Boston for families to be in the summer is Castle Island. It seems like everyone in the city knows this fact already: The cars routinely back up all the way to the Farragut statue on a nice weekend day.

What’s the appeal?

Well, there’s the inexpensive food at the Sully’s snack stand, for one. My go-to choice is the baked haddock. Not quite Legal Sea Foods, but better than most restaurants in Southie, and half the price.

There’s no better vantage point in the city to watch the various jets and boats come in and out of Boston’s port. Every foot of the 2-plus mile loop around Pleasure Bay offers great views for cyclists, runners and walkers. (The grilling/picnic area is also unlike any other in the city – it’s why so many parties get held there.) The causeway barriers help ensure deep enough water for swimming, even if the tide is low. If you’re lucky, you’ll find hermit crabs hanging out just below the surface.

And this is all in the shadow of a 19th century granite fort. (If you time it right, you can get a free tour of the spooky corridors behind those walls.) Getting there can be challenging, given the traffic. Best to park by the statue on or near Farragut Road and walk the boardwalk to the island. (Several Southie bus lines also swing down Farragut). Or show up later in the day, as sun-weary visitors make their departures, opening up parking spots.

Boston and I first met on an idyllic family trip, many summers ago. 

We sank into the sunny days, savoring the luxury of a week away from work and school and predictable pursuits. Adventure, please! 

We hiked the Big Dig-era Freedom Trail, toured museums, marveled at the Aquarium. The city skyline, a silver streak rising from the sea, dazzled without being showy. The red cobblestones and black lanterns of Beacon Hill held magic, like an old stage set we’d stumbled across from another century. 

Tired but ready to keep going, we refueled with fresh ice cream on Newbury Street, a jaunt through the long-lost fairy-and-griffin shop, and an afternoon race through the Coop’s tall fortress of books.  There were fried clam rolls loaded high and quiet, calmer moments in Old North Church. For a week, it seemed like early American history held still enough for us to see it. Click!

Every year, as the swan boats begin their stately circuit in the Public Garden, I smile over that summer. For, a little lighter after the students’ exodus, Boston still has many charms. 

Take the newly renovated central Public Library, which opened in 1895 as “a palace for the people.” Sun-dappled pockets of shade set off the courtyard, a favorite reading nook. Murals by John Singer Sargent, Puvis de Chavannes, and Edwin Austin Abbey share real estate with shifting art exhibits, live concerts, miles of manuscripts, and plenty of books. 

Walk through worlds at the Norman B. Leventhal Map Center. Page through President John Adams’ personal library. Dig into transcribing anti-slavery archives. A lunch hour spent in the Boston Public Library, lost between the lions, can make your summer sing.

Sara Georgini is a historian at the Massachusetts Historical Society and series editor of the papers of John Adams. 

Here are my thoughts on a good (possibly great) summer day in Boston.

For me, a good start to a summer day in Boston would be to get an egg & pepper omelette on a bulky roll from Sammy Carlo’s on Bennington Street in East Boston. Steve Schire and his family have owned the business for decades and it reminds me of the morning bustle I’ve found in other locales, including Chicago’s Valois (Cafeteria) and the long-gone Tio’s in Seattle.

Take that sandwich over to Constitution Beach and watch the planes take off from Logan Airport. Go stand on the pedestrian bridge over the Blue Line and think about “Where are they all going?”

After a time, you might say “Where I am going?”

Jump on the Blue Line at Orient Heights and take the train inbound to the Aquarium. You’ll pass under water, but you won’t get wet, which is always a treat. Up, up, up and away to the Long Wharf, which used to be much, much longer, but times change.

For a few bucks, you can get on the passenger ferry here to Charlestown and the shipyard where the USS Constitution resides. It’s the cheapest way to get on the water, short of jumping into Boston Harbor, which quite frankly, sure it’s clean these days, but yeah, no thanks.

The 15 minute ride lets you see the vertical expansion of East Boston writ large in upscale residences and a range of pleasure craft bobbing along. You can spend a few hours wandering above the shipyard, up and down and around Old Ironsides and around Dry Dock Number 2, which is just as good as Dry Dock Number 1 and do not left anyone tell you differently.

Even if you have been here before, you’ve never been here with the teeming throngs you’ll find that day, and if you listen closely, you’ll hear a new set of reactions to Boston, cities, and tourist locales that you’ve never heard before. People make stories about places through the stories they tell. And when we listen to those stories that they tell we have new stories.

The Black Panther Party's Black Community Survival Conferences

The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense was a revolutionary black nationalist organization founded in 1966. 

In 1972, the Black Panther Party held three conferences for the black community in Oakland, California.

These "survival conferences" were organized with the goal of promoting the development of grassroots institutions to help an under-served population meet their own needs outside the municipal, state or federal systems.

During the first event from March 29-31, the Panthers conducted a voter registration drive, led drills for “panther cubs”, tested people for sickle cell anemia, and had free grocery distributions for thousands in attendance.

The next conference on May 13, 1972 championed the support of a new local political platform - with co-founder and chairman Bobby Seale for mayor of Oakland and fellow member Elaine Brown for Sixth District city council seat, who ran their campaigns on a "Community Survival Ticket".

When the curtains were drawn open at the second conference, 1,500 bags of groceries were revealed all laid out on the stage. These were distributed by the Black Panther Party during this Black Community Survival Conference at the Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center (also known as the Oakland Auditorium). (Source: East Bay Times)

“Let it shine, let it shine! Let the power of the people shine!” (”Elaine Brown - Councilwoman”, “Bobby for Mayor”, “Re-elect Ron Dellums”, and “Shirley Chisholm for President” can also be seen here)

“I’ve lived through some hard times here in the ‘land of plenty’, with the U.S. government talking about a sale for this and a charge for that, while we the people starve!” (“Bobby Seale for Mayor of Oakland, “Endorsed by the People”, “Vote for Survival”)

“Last night I dreamt all my friends came over to see my new room and play in my yard. But I sleep in the kitchen with my sisters and thee are rats in the lot out back.” (The ad in the back says “Large Luxury Homes With A View - the three and four-bedroom houses with ? and family rooms range from $75,000 to $?”. The poster the boy holds reads “People’s Free Co-operative Housing Now!”, “Bobby Seale for Mayor of Oakland” “Elaine Brown for Councilwoman.”)

You can see some primary documents relating to the campaigns here and here.

The final conference would be held on June 24, 1972 at De Fremery Park, which was known to the Panthers and locals as "Lil Bobby Hutton" Park in honor of their first official member Bobby Hutton.

Although a single project on this scale was never done before, serving the community was nothing new for the Panthers.

This was just one of many proactive community initiatives of the organization. Party members continued to serve in other capacities such as police patrols, providing free clothing and shoes to people in need, providing free and relevant education at their elementary school (Oakland Community School, formerly the Intercommunal Youth Institute), providing free breakfast for children, providing transportation by bus for people to visit incarcerated friends and family, providing escorts for senior citizens to their medical appointments, providing an emergency ambulance service, establishing free health clinics (dental, blood testing, etc), establishing legal clinics, and much more.

The Black Panthers began their breakfast program  at St. Augustine's Church in January 1969, feeding poor and inner-city children. By the end of the year, their local project took on 10,000 children all over the country. They were soon serving full meals to 20,000 children on a daily basis.

“It is my belief that we black people need gas and electricity on cold and dark days; doctors and medicine in times of sickness; breakfast, lunch, and dinner in times of hunger.” (Revolutionary Art by Emory Douglas via Its About Time BPP Archive)  

The program was so effective that Jesse Andrews, California state treasurer, went so far as to say the Panthers were feeding more children than the United States Government.

In 1969, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, who sought to dismantle the organization through a massive counterintelligence operation, boomed his frustrations outright:

“The BCP (Breakfast for Children Program) promotes at least tacit support for the Black Panther Party among naive individuals and, what is more distressing, it provides the BPP with a ready audience composed of highly impressionable youths. Consequently, the BCP represents the best and most influential activity going for the BPP and, as such, is potentially the greatest threat to efforts by authorities to neutralize the BPP and destroy what it stands for. “

Black Panther Party Newspaper, Vol XII No. 25 - 1/15/75 (Source: It’s About Time BPP Archive)

Police in Oakland, San Francisco, Baltimore, and Chicago spread lies to manipulate public opinion, conducted raids, harassed participants and children, and outright destroyed food and packaging in attempts to disrupt the party’s progress.

The media had their own take on Panther activities as well running articles with mixed perspectives on what the breakfast program meant for the Panthers and the communities they served.

As a result of the voter registration drive of 1972, thousands of black voters were registered. When Bobby Seale ran for mayor the next year after his release from prison (time served for his radical protests of the 1968 Democratic National Convention), he came in second to the incumbent mayor John Reading out of a total of nine candidates. In 1977, Lionel Wilson was elected the first black mayor of Oakland, California - thanks in part to the work of the Black Panthers.

Long after the activism of the Black Panther Party ended with the dismantling of the group in 1982, their services continued in other forms.

Inspired by the actions of the Black Panthers, the United States Department of Agriculture revisited and permanently implemented the School Breakfast Program for children in 1975, which had begun as a two-year pilot program the same year the Black Panther Party was established. It currently feeds over 13 million students across the nation every day.

In addition to this, more than half (53%) of the infants born in the U.S. participate in the USDA's Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), which was another Black Panther initiative.

You can learn more about these social programs here and here.

The survival programs of the Black Panther Party are also detailed from their own perspective and through primary resources here.

Black Panther Party alumnae carried on the mission of the Black Panthers in their own ways, especially in regards to health.  

Ericka Huggins joined by her Black Panther friend and husband John Huggins at a “Free Huey” rally (John Huggins was gunned down by a member of the black nationalist US Organization at UCLA in 1969, part of a strategic operation by the FBI)

Ericka Huggins initially joined the Black Panther Party after seeing a photograph of Huey Newton on a hospital gurney bleeding profusely from a gunshot wound to the stomach as an Oakland police officer stood over him laughing.

The catalyst then for her interest was an emotional concern related to health.

A newspaper account of the story by the Associated Press...the media’s perspective

In his book Revolutionary Suicide, Huey describes how police officers handcuffed him to a trolley and beat him after he had been critically wounded in a shootout with police. When he spat blood on them, they covered his face with a towel, and beat him some more. Huey wrote that a young man, Dr. Finch, committed suicide after Huey's first trial.

In later years, former members Angela Davis and Jonina Abron became involved in the National Black Women’s Health Project.

Seated with her fellow colleagues in 1989, Abron stated in an interview:

“You know, one of the points in the Black Panther Party’s program was ‘We demand decent healthcare for black people and I see my own involvement in the Black women’s health project as, you know, part of that continuum. I’m still, you know, in my own way trying to work on that particular part of the problem.”

The point she referenced was introduced on March 29, 1972 by Huey Newton to the official cannon of the Ten Point Program as a revised point number 6 - no doubt a result of the burgeoning health politics evident in the planning of the first survival conference. This demand for “COMPLETELY FREE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL BLACK AND OPPRESSED PEOPLE” read in full:

“We believe that the government must provide, free of charge , for the people, health facilities which will not only treat our illnesses, most of which have come about as a result of our oppression, but which will also develop preventative medical programs to guarantee our future survival. We believe that mass health education and research programs must be developed to give Black and oppressed people access to advanced scientific and medical information, so we may provide ourselves with proper medical attention and care.”

Clearly, the Black Panther Party was at times rife with controversy but they are still known for the positive impact they made on the communities they served.

Read more about the party's contributions to healthcare in the book Body and Soul: The Black Panther Party and the Fight Against Medical Discrimination.

The Black Community Survival Conferences were not limited to the location of the Black Panther’s center of influence in California. There is evidence that survival conferences were held in other cities across the United States as these flyers for programs in Houston, Texas and in Detroit, Michigan confirm.

So...how do black communities across the nation survive in the conditions of the 21st Century? What lessons can we apply to our current struggles across the globe? Like the Panthers did in their time, we, too must answer these questions for ourselves.

‘I Gerald Ford am the 38th Puppet of the United States.’

‘They tell me there ain’t no jobs - what’s a person to do in order to survive?’, “For Temporary Work Lineup Here” (”Bobby Seale for Mayor of Oakland”)

“Food Conspiracy - [ME. conspiren; L. conspirare, to breathe together, agree in thought, unite] 1. any substance taken into and assimilated by a plant or animal to keep it alive and enable it to grow. 2. a plan agreed upon, the group taking part in such a plan; hence, 3. when high prices threaten the community, the poor unite, cut costs, in order to survive.” (’Things ain’t good until we the people get together for survival.’)

A clipping from the Black Panther Party’s newspaper (Credit to BPP Archivist Billy X. Jennings)

As Bobby Seale once stated...

“If there are no concrete programs to pull the people together...,to unify them, then we are doing nothing.”

After all is said and done in the course of our history, with many of the same persistent challenges facing us today, one question remains...
