A very important British heritage to Africans: neatness and hygiene.

Steady on looniz2011, steady on...that's quite the controversial statement there. And how relevant is it that the barber is amateur or otherwise? Isn't that for his subject to decide?

This IWW rally in Mulberry Park was mentioned in NYT of May 2, 1914 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9A0CE3D9153AE733A... in lefthand column of second page. The previous day, Marie Ganz had forced her way into the Standard Oil building, as reported in NYT of May 1, 1914 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9405E1DE173AE633A...

Mulberry Park (the term used by the New York Times), also called Mulberry Bend Park, was built on the site of Mulberry Bend, the slum location exposed for its inhuman and wretched conditions of disease, filth and crime by the reformer (and photographer) Jacob Riis. The demolition of these slums and the building of the park were crusades championed by Riis. His account of the conditions and the building of the park (completed in 1897) is a bit long-winded, but still fascinating: "The Bend is laid by the Heels" www.bartleby.com/207/11.html No doubt Mulberry Bend Park's history made it an ideal place to rally May Day marchers by the Anarchists of the day, like Berkman and Ganz. From there, as the Times article cited above recounts, they marched uptown to Union Square where a sort of melee ensued. The Times' coverage is very colorful, though it seems unnecessarily Runyonesque and a bit condescending as well. Mulberry Bend Park had been renamed Columbus Park in 1911, though neither Bain nor the Times referred to it as such in 1914. Old habits die hard. www.nycgovparks.org/parks/M015/highlights/6430 A useful overview of the main characters and events of Spring, 1914 (of which the Bain Collection has many pictures) can be found at: userwww.sfsu.edu/~jmmoran/edelsohn.htm
