The Hamptons

Winston Jackson, was a brilliant African woman who worked as African American woman who worked as an aeronautical engineer at NASA, during the years of segregation. Prior to her accomplishments, Mary Winston Jackson was just an ordinary girl born Hampton, Virginia. She attended an all-black school, and graduated with unbelievably high grades. And if that is not enough, she also received a bachelor’s degree in mathematics and physical science. In 1951, Mary landed a job at NACA (national…

Alex Marshall states throughout the book “How Cities Work” that in order for any city to be a healthy it is crucial to have the three legged stool. The three legged stool is composed of politics, economics and transportation. In transportation it gives us the most visual and dynamic in the way a place is shaped. That’s why places such as Silicon Valley, Jackson Heights and John Jay community all differ from each other. Adding on to this, the way our transportation systems are built and the…

witchcraft were the “-moderately poor” not the poorest women(Karlsen Ch. 3, Paragraph 1). Eunice Cole, for example, was not dirt poor but not middle class filed to receive poor relief yet was denied. Eunice was accused of being a witch after rebuking Hampton about how a man in the same economic status as her was receiving aid. Most women were economically dependent on the male members of their family. Even if a women could get a job a job they were few and far between with meager wages that…

the safety of its citizens and by the concept of street art. Many artists are being arrested and taken away from their families as a result of their practice; they are even being beaten up and abused by police officers and other graffiti artists (Hampton,53). In addition, it is argued that graffiti ruins the appearance of the city. Many big countries such as Australia and England have protection rights against graffiti. They believe it is a crime rather than an art(Halsey-168). They have a…

the white settlers did while settling in America was remove the Indians from their lands. The settlers removed the Indians time after time killing many Indians and never taking into consideration how the Indians felt. In the “Southern Workmand and Hampton School Record and Edna Dean Proctor the “Indians Appeal” (January 1892)” some of the Indians feelings are revealed. The Indians feel the wanting and need of joining the White settlers. They want to feel trusted and be part of a community that…

Does your socioeconomic affect your diet? It is not a secret anymore that you find more fast food chains in low socioeconomic neighborhoods, such as Central Islip, Brentwood, Wyandanch, and so on, and you find less of them in the Hamptons and Brightwaters. But why? In my opinion, low socioeconomic neighborhoods are targeted more because it’s easier accessible for them, low cost in money, and you can get your food in less than 5 minutes versus a Whole Food Market, where there is a healthier…

Booker T Washington was an astonishing individual who shaped the world in many ways, from his unorthodox views on racism and segregation to his focus on training and educating African Americans. Washington was born on April 5th, 1856, to a life of slavery in Virginia. His mother, a slave, worked as a cook for the plantation owner, James Burroughs, while his father was an unknown white man who was most likely from a nearby plantation. He grew up in a humble one-room log cabin, where as a child…

meetings in locations that are easily accessible to all in the community will increase residents’ participation in projects within their communities. In my opinion, clear goals and purpose will allow for effective management of public health programs (Hampton & Wadud, 2015; Anglin, 2000). Why and how are hospitals performing community health needs assessments and plans? How can hospitals and health departments collaborate on assessment, planning, and interventions to improve the health of the…
