MARCH (MARZO) 2016
Dear Neighbors and Friends:
Estimados vecinos y amigos:
Hello, and happy March! There are so many
special occasions this month – in fact, as
March unfolds each of us will notice sure
signs of steady progress toward spring –
and beyond!
Hola, y feliz de mes de Marzo! Hay tantas ocasiones especiales en
este mes - de hecho, en el mes de Marzo cada uno de nosotros notara signos de progreso constante hace la primavera y más allá!
For example, we’re excited about the 175th anniversary on March
9th of the famous decision by the U.S. Supreme Court restoring
freedom to the Amistad mutineers, an event seen as the literal
and figurative start of the civil rights movement in this country.
12th
Saturday, March
features a rare – and free – New Haven
performance of the U.S. Navy Band at Yale’s historic Woolsey
Hall. That weekend also marks the annual change to Daylight
Savings Time, when we must all remember to move clocks ahead
one hour so we stay on schedule the rest of the month.
The next day, Sunday, March 13th, New Haven will again host the
St. Patrick’s Day Parade – ahead of the holiday itself March 17th.
This parade is a standing tradition in our city and a great reason
to bring family members and friends out for an afternoon of pageantry and excitement.
Por ejemplo, estamos emocionados con el 175 Aniversario de la famosa decisión en la Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos de América al restaurar la libertad de los amotinados Amistada, se llevara a
cabo el 9 de marzo, un evento visto como el inicio literal y figurado
del movimiento de derechos civiles en este país.
El Sábado, 12 de marzo cuenta con un raro - y libre - el rendimiento
de New Haven de la Banda de la Marina de los Estados Unidos, en
el histórico Woolsey Hall de la Universidad de Yale. Ese fin de semana también es cuando la hora cambia para comenzar el verano,
cuando todos debemos recordar que los relojes deben cambiar la
hora. .
Al día siguiente, el Domingo, 13 de marzo será el Desfile de Saint
Patrick - antes del receso de vacaciones que será el 17 de marzo. Este desfile es una tradición en nuestra ciudad y una gran razón
para que los miembros de la familia y amigos disfruten de él.
The spring equinox will occur the third Sunday, March 20th, just as
our patience with winter is exhausted, and then March 27th is
Easter Sunday for all those who observe.
El equinoccio de la primavera se producirá el tercer domingo que
será el 20 de marzo, ya que nuestra paciencia se está agotando con
el invierno, y después del marzo 27 será la Pascua es el domingo
para todos los que la observan.
At the end of the month, on March 30th, The British Art Center at
Yale will re-open after a 15 months-long, spectacular renovation,
and we’re looking forward to that as well.
Al final del mes, el 30 de marzo, el Centro de Arte Británico de Yale
se volverá a abrir después de un 15 meses de duración, renovación
espectacular, y estamos mirando adelante a eso también.
Have a great month!
Que tengan un gran mes!

SOJOURNER TRUTH (1797‐1883): ABOLITIONIST & WOMEN'S RIGHTS ADVOCATE
Wri en By: Arlene Davis‐Rudd, Commissioner, Aging Commission In accordance with March being Women's History Month, I felt the dire need to highlight rights advo‐
cate and warrior, Sojourner Truth, historically, an African American aboli onist and women's rights ac‐
vist, who was born into slavery in New York State, but escaped to freedom in 1826 with her infant daughter. A er going to court to recover her son, she became the first black woman to win such a case against a white man. The next twenty‐six years of Sojourner's life was spent in the State of Michigan, where she was bought and sold four different mes. In the first twenty‐nine years of her life she served as a slave in New York, performing demanding physical labor in her teens. She married another slave and raised several chil‐
dren. Sojourner, born with the name Isabella gave herself another name, Sojourner Truth, in 1843. Her best known speech was delivered extemporaneously in 1851 at the Ohio Women's Rights Conven on in Ak‐
ron, Ohio. The Speech became widely known during the Civil War, by the tle "Ain't I A Woman?" While in NY State, Sojourner joined various religious revivals and in the 19th Century, she became a powerful charisma c speaker. In 1843, Sojourner had a spiritual breakthrough and declared that the spirit called on her to preach the truth, as a result, that was when she changed her name. "Sojourner was also, an evangelist who applied her religious fervor to the aboli onist and women's rights movement Although Sojourner never learned to read nor write, with the help of friends, she pub‐
lished her life story and beliefs in 1850, In the Narra ve of Sojourner Truth." "In 2014, Sojourner was included in the Smithsonian magazine’s list of the "100 Most Significant Ameri‐
cans of her me." She had been, also, inducted into the Na onal Women’s Hall of Fame in New York State." Contribu ng to this ar cle included Wikipedia and Famous Black Women: They Showed Us the Way. Latino Menu

“IN THE SPOTLIGHT”: Mr. Henry Blue & Mr. William Vaugh
Created by: Gwendolen “Gwen” Grady
Mr. Henry Blue was the commander for four years at the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW)
Hamden Post 10321 for four years and Mr. William Vaugh was the commander of Post 10321
in Hamden from 2013 to 2015.
These men served in the Army in World War II. They traveled as far as England, France, Germany and Switzerland. Mr. Vaugh served three years in Army infantry special service force, and
Mr. Blue served four years.
The two men are here placing the American flag for the Dixwell-Newhallville Senior Center during their Wednesday meeting. They are temporarily using space at the Beulah Heights Church
basement because of a facelift being done at the Dixwell-Newhallville Senior Center, which is
not only being renovated just for the seniors ,but also will be used for our youth.
They are hoping to return to their facility as soon as repairs are complete.
In the future, they are also looking forward to the big move to the "Q House ", which should be
built within two years "Hopefully ".
