histories. The Puerto Rican Oral History Project was the first oral history project undertaken by the Brooklyn Historical Society – the start of our oral history collection in 1973. BHS, along with John D. Vasquez, then Director of the Department of Puerto Rican Studies at New York City Community College initiated the project which received funding from the New York State Council on the Arts. 69 interviews were conducted between 1973-1975. Interviews were conducted in English and Spanish, recorded on cassette tape and also transcribed. Students from Professor Vasquez’s oral history class in 1975 conducted an additional 6 interviews for this project. The project focuses on people who migrated from Puerto Rico to Brooklyn between 1917 (when Puerto Rican people were extended US citizenship) and 1940. Narrators were born between 1890-1940 and seem to have been chosen because they were leaders in the Puerto Rican community in Brooklyn. http://brooklynhistory.org/library/wp/category/oral-history/ www.brooklynhistory.org 20:32 Brooklyn, Brooklyn Historical Society, Puerto Rico, Puerto Rican, Oral History, migration Brooklyn Historical Society no On April 10, 2010, BHS hosted Queensborough Community College for The Big Read: a reading and discussion of the book The Things They Carried, Tim O'Brien's collection of short stories about a platoon of American soldiers in the Vietnam War. <br /> Participants will visit BHS's exhibit In Our Own Words: Portraits of Brooklyn Vietnam Veterans and three veterans featured in the exhibit, Joan Furey, Joseph Giannini, and Anthony Wallace, read from their own writings and shared their stories.<br /> www.brooklynhistory.org http://www.brooklynhistory.org/podcast/Comments.mp3 ssullivan@brooklynhistory.org http://www.brooklynhistory.org C66B3452-5D6A-4BBD-8137-6B536FA9C8C3-380-00002F3D3A380A77-FFA Mon, 12 Apr 2010 16:08:45 -0400 women in the military On April 10, 2010, BHS hosted Queensborough Community College for The Big Read: a reading and discussion of the book The Things They Carried, Tim O'Brien's collection of short stories about a platoon of American soldiers in the Vietnam War. 12:21 Brooklyn, Brooklyn Historical Society, Vietnam, War, The Big Read, Tim O'Brien, women in the military Brooklyn Historical Society no On April 10, 2010, BHS hosted Queensborough Community College for The Big Read: a reading and discussion of the book The Things They Carried, Tim O'Brien's collection of short stories about a platoon of American soldiers in the Vietnam War. <br /> Participants will visit BHS's exhibit In Our Own Words: Portraits of Brooklyn Vietnam Veterans and three veterans featured in the exhibit, Joan Furey, Joseph Giannini, and Anthony Wallace, read from their own writings and shared their stories.<br /> www.brooklynhistory.org http://www.brooklynhistory.org/podcast/Question.mp3 ssullivan@brooklynhistory.org http://www.brooklynhistory.org FF547080-6218-4620-AEF7-917DA68AD716-380-00002F23443AD8CC-FFA Mon, 12 Apr 2010 16:07:34 -0400 Anthony, Joseph, and Joan talk about their experiences Coming Home from war On April 10, 2010, BHS hosted Queensborough Community College for The Big Read: a reading and discussion of the book The Things They Carried, Tim O'Brien's collection of short stories about a platoon of American soldiers in the Vietnam War. 21:46 Brooklyn, Brooklyn Historical Society, Vietnam, War, The Big Read, Tim O'Brien Brooklyn Historical Society no On April 10, 2010, BHS hosted Queensborough Community College for The Big Read: a reading and discussion of the book The Things They Carried, Tim O'Brien's collection of short stories about a platoon of American soldiers in the Vietnam War. <br /> Participants will visit BHS's exhibit In Our Own Words: Portraits of Brooklyn Vietnam Veterans and three veterans featured in the exhibit, Joan Furey, Joseph Giannini, and Anthony Wallace, read from their own writings and shared their stories.<br /> <br /> Anthony Wallace entered the military in 1969, he talks about why he chose to enter Noncommissioned Officers school, and describes the 90+ pounds of equipment and supplies he carried in his rucksack, as well as the memories and emotions he carries with him after surviving an attack that left 25 US wounded and seven dead. www.brooklynhistory.org http://www.brooklynhistory.org/podcast/Anthony%20Wallace.mp3 ssullivan@brooklynhistory.org http://www.brooklynhistory.org DCC0D940-5B1E-4AEF-A4C1-E671384E1E67-380-00002EFD48315D8B-FFA Mon, 12 Apr 2010 16:04:50 -0400 Anthony Wallace describes the 90 pounds of equipment and supplies he carried in his rucksack, as well as the memories and emotions he carries with him On April 10, 2010, BHS hosted Queensborough Community College for The Big Read: a reading and discussion of the book The Things They Carried, Tim O'Brien's collection of short stories about a platoon of American soldiers in the Vietnam War.

Frank Morales, a radical Episcopalian priest who has been squatting in the South Bronx and on the Lower East Side since 1978, discusses his childhood on the Lower East Side, his squatting experiences, and their relevance to the current housing crisis, in Brooklyn and beyond. The interview will be archived at the Tamiment Library and Robert F.

The University of Trash was an art installation at the Sculpture Center in Queens which functioned as a collaborative, "temporary, makeshift university," offering classes and discussions on topics from concrete boat construction to building a radio station to situationism. Frank Morales, a radical Episcopalian priest who has been squatting in the South Bronx and on the Lower East Side since 1978, has recently been hired as the housing organizer for Picture the Homeless, a homeless-led grassroots group which has been developing a multi-pronged program of direct action to secure housing for homeless people, alongside groups like Miami's Take Back the Land. Through this connection and others, the knowledge of long-term squatters is being passed on to the people who need it in multiple ways. Oral history can be one small part of that, and this interview was done with the intent to contribute to that process, while reflecting on what the past means in the rapidly changing present. In it, Frank talks about growing up on the Lower East Side in the 1950s and 60s; his decision to become a priest, and liberation theology; opening his first abandoned building in the South Bronx; the politics and logistics of squat defense; the internal dynamics of squatted buildings; squatting and art; squatting as a long-term strategy to create "zones of resistance" in the city; and his ideas for the many newly abandoned condos in Brooklyn today . Frank is a gifted storyteller with insightful political analyses. The interview will be archived at the Tamiment Library and Robert F. Wagner Labor Archives at New York University, as part of the Squatters Rights Collection of artifacts and oral histories. http://brooklynhistory.org 2:03:32 Oral History, Brooklyn, New York, Squatters, Radical Brooklyn Historical Society no Lillian Santangello founded the World of Wax Musee, Coney Island's first and only wax museum.
