THE PRINCE DIARIES ♔

18 APRIL 2024 || SURREY & WEST LONDON (1/2) : SURPLUS TO SUPPER

The Prince of Wales carried out engagements to spotlight thecommunity and environmental impact organisationsthe area are having through their work. He first visited, Surplus to Supper - a surplus food redistribution charity, to learn about its work in bridging the gap between food waste and food poverty across Surrey and West London.

Founded in 2017, Surplus to Supper redistributes over three tonnes of surplus food a day to local projects such as food-banks, charities, schools, and community organisations. They will hit a significant milestone this month, saving the equivalent of three millionmeals that would have otherwise gone to landfill.

During the visit William, met volunteers who sort and deliver food on behalf of the charity and helped them loading it into their vans for transportation to local organisations.

He also joined the team of chefs in the kitchen and assist in the preparation of the meals.

"These calls for “getting tough” also generated debate and bitter exchanges between different groups claiming to represent African Americans. Some critics insisted that “law and order” operated as a euphemism for anti-black and anti–civil rights sentiments. Leonard De Champs, chairman of the Harlem Chapter of the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE), excoriated the NAACP, calling it “oppressive and Nazi-like for its Fascist proposals regarding law and order in the streets of Harlem and New York City’s other Black communities.” He charged that

Vincent Baker’s love for mandated jail sentences and tightened-up parole procedures conclusively proves that the NAACP is an effective enemy of the 1.2 million Black people in this city.

Floyd McKissick, a longtime civil rights activist and another leader of CORE, claimed that the NAACP’s punitive recommendations reflected the interests of the black middle class. He wrote that

the arguments used in the report of the NAACP smack suspiciously of the Ronald Reagan-George Wallace school of repressive ‘law and order,’ at any cost. They appeal to the fears and prejudices of citizens who have even a little bit worth protecting.

He pointed to “a gap of understanding between middle class and poor Blacks along economic lines” and explained that

we should know by now that the addition of more white cops in the ghetto solves nothing. The ones who suffer more from such measures are the poor blacks; not necessarily the guilty ones.

Instead of harsher punishment, McKissick called for community control:

The ghetto must be safe for its citizens, but it cannot be made so by police state tactics. All efforts must be directed toward the ending of conditions which breed crime and chaos; all efforts much be directed toward the development of a Black-orientated, Black controlled law enforcement agency—an agency dedicated to the aid and protection of Black people, not to their suppression.

During this period, a host of community groups and organizations set up treatment programs, many of which received New York City and state funds, intended to be more directly accountable to thecommunities in which they were embedded. Some grew out of churches and established community groups, while others were connected to more radical political organizing. For example, in March 1969, eighty volunteers and twenty-two drug addicts took over a three-story building in Harlem and set up a drug-treatment program. They hoped to bring attention to “the inadequacy of the state’s narcotic program and the entire health program for the black people.” The addicts involved told the New York Times that they had faced a maze of waiting lists and applications in their efforts to secure treatment. One had never heard back from a program he had applied to three years earlier in 1966. The journalist reported that all of the patients interviewed complained that the state’s drug addiction programs were “more punishment than rehabilitation.” One addict asked if “I should turn myself in to the state and be locked up for rehabilitation.” They contrasted the civic degradation of the state treatment programs with guerrilla programs, claiming that in the latter, they “talk to you like a man, not a statistic—the people really want to help you and it makes you want to help yourself.” After a police eviction order, the center was closed and the patients transferred to an “underground hospital.” In subsequent years, other groups also established treatment programs. The Young Lords, a radical group dedicated to Puerto Ricans’ self-determination, were integral to establishing a detox program at Lincoln Hospital.

Drastic fluctuations in policing further intensified frustration within urban communities. In 1969, the city initiated a major intensification in street-level enforcement of drug markets. At a press conference in September, Mayor Lindsay announced that the police department intended to shift the narcotics division’s 500-person force to the pursuit of upper-level drug arrests and direct the entire remaining patrols to prioritize narcotic arrests at the street level. This sweep produced a considerable uptick in narcotics arrests in New York City: they jumped from 7,199 in 1967 to 26,378 in 1970. Then, in 1971, at a high point in the surge of heroin use, the NYPD abandoned their campaign of intensive street-level drug policing. Police officials claimed that the policy was ineffective and expensive and resulted in low conviction rates because the court system did not have the capacity to process the arrests. The result was a dramatic fall-off in arrests. New York City police conducted over 24,025 felony drug arrests in 1970, 18,694 in 1971, 10,370 in 1972, and 7,041 in 1973."

Blackwater Against New Nuclear Group (BANNG) firmly contradicts Therese Coffey, MP on Bradwell as a nuclear site.

 Therese Coffey MP suggests Bradwell is a large brownfield site. In fact,the site is occupied by the long closed Bradwell A power station now in theprocess of decommissioning before being returned to greenfield land use. Perhaps her most preposterous assertion is that ‘Bradwell has hostednuclear power and hopes to do so again in the future’. In fact, thecommunities and Councils around the…

I believe everyone goes in with rose colored lens when they first approach a new experience and mine was no different. I had imagined all the archivist would do would focus on cataloging and processing; instead, there's bureaucracy, a struggle to maintain funding, and many Zoom meetings, I mean Microsoft Teams. The city government of Austin runs on Microsoft Teams.

Given that, in most cases, a community archive tends to have its genesis from the people instead of traditional institutions, I applaud the city of Austin for being aware of the landscape. At the same time, it can be difficult to approach those in the community when you are working for an institution that may have caused some friction previously. The fact that each of the three Community Archivist (African American, Asian American and Indigenous & Latinx) have responsibility to each their groups (Asian American is composed of some 40 countries). While juggling social responsibilities, maintaining expectations from their institution and managing to keep all the wheels spinning at the same time is challenging.

While I've seen the Community Archivists at their lowest, I've also seen them help each other assemble items to give away at public events. They cover each other's backs, and mostly, they are there to make a difference in their own way. Being a Community Archivist can be a thankless job. There aren't enough funds; they could use a support staff, but at the end of the day, I feel they get some pride from what they've done.

I believe the following skills would prove necessary to operate optimally in this position. As my supervisor said in her interview, the ability to manage projects, especially multiple projects, is most helpful. You will be involved with interacting with people from different backgrounds, so being well-versed in navigating different spaces from institution to community would be beneficial. At the end, it is the soft skills that is most necessary.

Finally, what would be some changes I would make? First, I eliminate the requirement they staff the reference desk. Currently theCommunity Archivist are required to staff the reference room for one or two shifts a week (I'm not entirely sure) and a weekend day every other week I believe. The reference desk is where the public goes for information and while it is handy to know the reference desk and you will learn something every time you work it, I feel the Community Archivist job is busy enough without the reference desk, especially the weeknd shift. Second of all, I would make funds available to hire a support staff of one or two extra pair of hands for this department. During my time there I rarely saw another volunteer besides me in this particular department. My goal is to continue to volunteer at the Austin History Center and learn what I can about Community Archives. I'm not sure where I will go next but I have another 40 years to go so I have time.

For instance, the globalization of labor laws has made it mandatory fororganizations to give their workers specific wage rates per international labor laws.Social responsibility requires that an organization involves itself in the community withinwhich it operates (Wang, & Sarkis, 2017). Organizations are supposed to interact with thecommunities around them through, for instance, coming up with self-help groups to help the lessfortunate populations (Wang, & Sarkis, 2017). Organizations participate in social responsibilitiessuch as providing scholarships for disabled students, giving employment opportunities to thecommunities, functioning while being conscious of the people’s culture, and any other activitythat would improve their well-being.Concerning environmental sustainability, organizations need to conserve theenvironment within which they operate, such as preventing environmental pollution (Wang, &Sarkis, 2017). Organizations are also supposed to conserve the environment by planting trees andsensitizing people to keep the environment pollution free to fight global warming (Wang, &Sarkis, 2017).QUIZ TWOEach corporate has its structure and culture. An organization would reach its goalsdepending on the organization structure and culture that it has adopted. For instance,bureaucratic organizations would have less motivated workers because the management wouldmake most decisions. If this happens, their workers will lack the moral to work because they will3feel left out in major decision making. Alternatively, a structure that does not have strictmanagement and management delegates duties to Junior staff will be motivated to realize theorganization’s goals.
