Tensions at the Paul Manafort fraud trial grew so heated Monday that the judge suggested that one of Robert Mueller's prosecutors was crying during a discussion out of the jury's earshot, according to a transcript of the proceedings.
The exchange came during testimony by Manafort's former right-hand man, Rick Gates, who offered dramatic details about how he stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from his boss while helping him hide offshore accounts from U.S. tax authorities and defraud bankers to secure loans.
Mueller's team has clashed repeatedly with Ellis, who questions the relevance of detailed evidence about Manafort's work as a political consultant in Ukraine, where prosecutors say he made more than $60 million from 2010 to 2014. Some of those confrontations continued in bench conferences that jurors and dozens of media members couldn't hear in federal court in Alexandria, Virginia.
Andres complained that Ellis was blocking him from asking important questions while placing an emphasis on moving quickly at the bank- and tax-fraud trial of Manafort, President Donald Trump's former campaign chairman. Ellis disagreed, saying he wasn't emphasizing speed over substance. The judge continued that delay is unnecessary, and prosecutors should stick to the relevant evidence.
"Look at me when you're talking to me," Ellis said to Andres.
"I'm sorry, judge, I was," Andres said.
"I'm sorry, judge," Andres said.
The prosecutors can't appeal a Not Guilty verdict, but I hope Ellis isn't setting himself up for a mistrial argument on the basis of bias.

Unless they're sequestered, they'll hear about it.

No chance. The trial is almost over, Ellis is the judge, and he isn't going to declare a mistrial. Ellis has been doing this for decades and does not get recused or overturned because of it.
The judge is correct to restrict them to things that are relevant.
The prosecution should be able to make the case that Manafort filed false loan applications.
The judge is probably thinking, "What's the point? Trump's going to pardon him anyways".
The judge rapidly tired of hearing about how many suits Manafort had, how many closets they were in, what they were made of, and generally that Manafort lived a lavish lifestyle. He is forcing them to present evidence related to the actual criminal charges and it is getting very testy at sidebar. The witnesses are admitted liars, thieves and/or frauds with immunity deals and credibility problems.
Some of those confrontations continued in bench conferences that jurors and dozens of media members couldn't hear in federal court in Alexandria, Virginia. Unless they're sequestered, they'll hear about it.
Tension between the judge and the prosecution team boiled over again late Monday as prosecutors attempted to introduce Gates' passport as evidence of his travels to Ukraine and Cyprus. Judge Ellis interrupted them.
"Let's get to the heart of the matter," he scowled.
"Just listen to me!" Ellis bellowed from the bench.
Ellis told Andres he was looking for ways to "expedite." Andres responded, "We're doing everything we can to move the trial along."
After sending the jury out of the courtroom, Judge Ellis tore into Andres for what he called unnecessary questions about billionaires involved in Ukrainian politics.
Andres pushed back angrily, prompting a heated argument that went on for more than 10 minutes.
Ellis repeatedly criticized Andres for not making eye contact with the judge, saying "look at me" and suggesting Andres "looked down as if to say, 'that's BS.' "
Andres responded with frustration saying, "You continue to interpret our reactions in some way," when the lawyers don't do the same to the judge.
Ellis disputed that he had limited prosecutors significantly or interrupted them often, saying the record would support him on that.
"I will stand by the record as well," Andres retorted.
"All right, then you will lose," Ellis responded.
That is the default position of ALL Democrats-Commies, isn't it?
Ellis knows this entire case is based on nothing but smoke & warped mirrors, and a agitprop BS. I think you're right in anticipating the Dems eventual move to dismiss the Judge as "prejudicial".
Dems truly believe ALL decisions AGAINST Dems-Lefties IS "bias". OR "bigotry". OR racism/sexism/xenophobia, etc.
NOTHING should surprise us since we currently live in a State of Kangaroo Courts of public-opinion and virtual Anarchy. No longer have we a pesky pseudo-Constitution and Law to get in the way of fascist place these Dem-Left & their weaselly cousins (the GOPe colluders) plan on taking us.
What is amazing to me is the tale of two trails. The one we see and the one MSM sees(or makes up).
I think they should get a conviction, at least for filing false loan applications. That is not exactly what they are looking for.
I really hope the Trump administration can rout out the Regressives that using the government as a tool for the Demoncrap party. Good FBI agents right now must feel like they are working for the devil instead of the people. I like most people want to see top agents go to jail. If there is no punishment there will be no deterrent to keep this from happening again.
[Liberator #7] Ellis knows this entire case is based on nothing but smoke & warped mirrors, and a agitprop BS.
I believe part of the Manafort defense was to claim that much money reflected as earned from Ukraine was never paid, so his tax returns accurately reflected what he believed to be his true and accurate income. However, the inflated figures were used on loan applications. Such argument could create reasonable doubt about Manafort's guilt regarding income tax charges, but could facilitate proving charges of falsified loan application charges. It would not be a walk, but it would be the next best thing.
Just an FYI for a court happening today, continuing from yesterday. I have seen a few reports blown out of proportion, so here is the actual Mueller motion for a curative instruction.
On Thursday morning, Judge Ellis issued a curative instruction to the jury, "Put aside any criticism. I was probably wrong in that," regarding Wednesday about an expert witness from the IRS having been covered by an order to exclude witnesses from the proceedings except for during their testimony.
In another update, Cindy Laporta, the CPA who testified earlier that she knew, or suspected, tax claims were fraudulent, had her employment with the Virginia accounting firm Kositzka, Wicks & Co. terminated. It is very possible her license may follow.
Today's minor kerfuffle. Another government motion for curative instruction.
Mr. Asonye for the government.
Mr. Nanavati for defendant Paul Manafort.
Q. Was the Union Street loan ever funded?
A. No, it was not.
Q. Do you know why?
A. No, I don't. I was never given a specific reason for it, me personally. I was just told that we weren't moving forward with the loan.
MR. ASONYE: The Court's indulgence?
THE COURT: All right. Mr. Nanavati.
MR. NANAVATI: Yes, Your Honor. Thank you.
THE COURT: You might want to spend time on a loan that was granted.
MR. NANAVATI: Thank you, Your Honor.
MR. ASONYE: Your Honor, I just want to note that this is a -- this is a charged count in the indictment.
THE COURT: I know that.
The Gummint prosecution is embarrassing itself. But neither they, the Dems or Sessions care. It's *perception* that matters. And it provides fodder to CNN/MSNBC, lib-left MSM etal.
The Manafort Case is definitive Deep State "Because-We-Can!" weaponizing, abuse of power and Gestapo-ism, having NOTHING to do with "National Security" or "Law Enforcement". Fascinating how this turns out.
The players of the Deep State seem to be tentacles of not only 0bama's Machination, but of the International/NWO Elite's. No matter how this turns out., America is irreparably damaged (part of the NWO "Wish-List" IMO).
Nolu, if you can analyze, breakdown and editorialize your opinion on stuff like this, I know I'd appreciate it.
The judge allowed the govt to introduce evidence that Manafort's businesses didn't file foreign bank account reports, over defense objection (they argued it wasn't relevant to whether Manafort individually willfully failed to file required FBARs).
Judge T.S. Ellis III has said he will instruct jurors that they cannot find Manafort guilty for omissions made by his company since the indictment doesn't name his entities but only him as an individual.
I've spent my career defending criminal cases before Judge Ellis and his colleagues, and Mueller's team earned his ire.
The Manafort trial has attracted a lot of media attention over the last few days, seemingly all of it centered on the dramatic evidence presented by the government and the dramatic admonitions of that prosecution by Judge T.S. Ellis III.
As a veteran defense lawyer in Ellis' courtroom (whom he once sent the FBI to protect), I don't believe that his actions are a product of whatever his political views might be — even though, through a strictly political lens, many people on both sides seem to accept that he is hostile to the government and their case.
But I've spent nearly my entire career defending criminal cases in the Eastern District of Virginia and, having watched the Mueller team in action, I believe that they earned Ellis' opprobrium with their lack of respect for his work and the jury's time.
Granted, Robert Mueller is the best the Department of Justice has to offer, a respected veteran of the Marine Corps, the University of Virginia School of Law, the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation — institutions where trust, skill and integrity are prized. And the people who work for him are exactly the people he wanted, each of them having significant experience in the exact kinds of cases his office was tasked with investigating.
In addition, the Mueller team has employed other agencies and United States Attorneys' Offices to help in his investigation, and they have used grand jury subpoenas to bring some very uncooperative witnesses in to talk. They seem to have the facts on their side in the Manafort case, too, from millions of dollars of profligate spending to an almost complete lack of compliance with things like tax filings and Foreign Agent Registry Act reporting. They even have the damning testimony of Manafort's bookkeeper and his long-time deputy.
But even though this case seems to be an important piece of a larger effort to get to the bottom of what happened in the 2016 election, something in which every American has an interest, the fact remains that the Mueller team has to actually try Paul Manafort in this case, and only Paul Manafort. And no matter how strong their evidence, how righteous their cause or how impressive their resumes may be (and actually are), they simply haven't done a very good job.
This case started with the Mueller team first appearing in Ellis' courtroom without consulting the local United States Attorney's Office. The Eastern District of Virginia has perhaps the best collection of prosecutors in the entire nation, and Ellis doesn't see much of a need for anyone from across the river coming to help, let alone coming in to prosecute a case on their own. Besides, things are a little different in the Rocket Docket (as the Eastern District is known) generally and in Judge Ellis' courtroom specifically; but, as the American Bar Association says, if you're appearing in a new courthouse, bring an experienced local attorney with you — even if you are the deputy solicitor general.
The Mueller team's mistakes didn't stop there. Though they did bring Uzo Asonye, a veteran assistant United States attorney in Alexandria, along with them after that first hearing, they didn't let him speak at the motions hearing in May where Michael Dreeben, perhaps the nation's premiere appellate advocate, appeared to be poorly prepared and less than candid with the court, earning them more of Ellis' ill will.
And though much has been made of the fact that Ellis interrupted and reprimanded the government from the first moments of the trial, even interrupting their opening statement, the Mueller team invited those interruptions by repeating the exact factual claims Ellis had already ruled were irrelevant to the case at hand. An important part of a judge's job is to make and enforce his or her rulings; unlike on television, lawyers don't get to make grand pronouncements in violation of rules and rulings just because they make for great television.
That same sort of treatment has continued throughout the trial. The prosecution continued to bring up irrelevant points, even though they are often narratively compelling. They've rolled their eyes and complained, and even once argued that they should be able to present a chart the judge had excluded because the witness took a long time to make it, rather than telling him why they thought it was relevant.
Ellis is certainly demanding: He is, as I've heard him say, "a Caesar in [his] own Rome," (even if, as he also likes to say, "it's a pretty small Rome.") He is also among the best the federal judiciary has to offer. Ellis has impressive credentials, perhaps eclipsing even Mueller's, having served as a Navy F4 Phantom pilot after graduating from Princeton and adding a degree from Oxford as a Knox Fellow to his resume after graduating from Harvard Law School.
Over the last 30 years or so on the bench, he has shown the remarkable intellectual acumen necessary to competently preside over cases many lawyers and judges would rightly try hard to avoid.
While he's accused of being pro-defendant in this trial, and has certainly held the government to high standards over the course of his career, he's also been roundly criticized for being very pro-government. I have personally appealed several of his decisions to the Fourth Circuit, and have only won once.
Last Monday, Greg Andres, currently the lead counsel for the government, threatened to appeal on the grounds that Ellis has interrupted and admonished the government too frequently; trust me on this, his appeal won't go any further than mine did.
And, though almost all of the coverage of this trial mentions the breakneck speed of the Rocket Docket, the truth is that Ellis is the slow judge around here. He will entertain and examine any argument that may even marginally affect the outcome of a case (and ad nauseum at that), but with a jury in the box he demands that lawyers speak clearly, follow the rules, stick to what's relevant and keep the imposition on the jurors' time to a minimum.
If you want things to go better in his court you have to live up to the high standards he demands. Every attorney who has ever tried a case before him knows this, including literally hundreds of current and former assistant United States attorneys. Anyone who has simply Googled Judge Ellis' name and read the coverage of other famous cases he's presided over knows this, too.
Greg Hunter is a criminal defense lawyer in Arlington, Virginia.
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (CN) – Prosecutors wrapped up their case against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort on Monday afternoon, as the judge agreed to instruct jurors they cannot find Manafort guilty for omissions made by his company because the indictment only names him individually.
That information can be used as evidence, however, to determine Manafort's intent or "willfulness" to omit information about the entities on his personal tax returns, U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III told attorneys after jurors were dismissed from the courtroom.
The penultimate witness called by attorneys for Special Counsel Robert Mueller was James Brennan, who worked as a construction and commercial loan office at the Chicago-based Federal Savings Bank.
Brennan testified Monday that even though it was evident that he lacked the assets to back them up, two loans for Manafort were approved at the behest of an executive who was angling for a spot in the Trump administration.
Judge Ellis will now consider defense attorneys' motion for acquittal following his decision to allow additional testimony from Paula Liss, a special agent with the Treasury Department's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.
Liss testified last week but was questioned again Monday about whether Manafort's companies reported foreign bank accounts on their tax records from 2011 to 2014.
Following a rapid line of questioning from prosecutor Greg Andres, Liss told jurors the companies had not.
On that note, Andres rested the prosecution's case.
Ellis sealed the courtroom before discussing the defense's motion to acquit, but noted that what was discussed in secret Monday will eventually be revealed.
"When the case is over, the seal will be lifted," Judge Ellis said.
Defense attorney Kevin Downing requested until Tuesday morning to write the motion for acquittal. Ellis granted the request.
The motion hinges on details that another defense attorney, Thomas Zehnle, said would likely come up during closing arguments.
Zehnle argued during one sidebar that Manafort had no obligation to report foreign bank accounts held by Davis Manafort International LLC since he only owned 50 percent of the company at the time. Manafort's wife, Kathleen, owned the other half from 2012 to 2014.
The alleged conduct in the government's indictment spans from 2011 to 2014. Prosecutor Uzo Asonye was quick to point out that Manafort was the sole owner of Davis Manafort International for at least one of those years, in 2011.
Asonye also emphasized that when Manafort filed as a foreign agent in 2017, he also listed himself as 100 percent owner of the company.
The Court of Judge T.S. Ellis III will NOT have "Kangaroo" attached to it. Nor is he suffering fools. The lot of them. Good to know.
Judge Eliis: "DUH. You are prosecuting a fundamentally FUBARed case. TARGET MISSED."
1. Is one required to file an FBAR if they own less than 50 percent of the company and no signatory authority?
3. Can you redefine reasonable doubt?
4. Can the exhibit list be amended to include the indictment?
#1 Judge Ellis explained that a person must own more than 50 percent of the account's profits or capital.
An FBAR is a Foreign Bank Account report.
I believe there were five contested years (2011-2015) and the Manafort defense argued that during four of these years (2012-2015) the account was shared equally by Manafort and his wife, resulting in there being no individual FBAR reporting requirement for those four years.
#2 Judge Ellis advised the jury would have to rely on their own collective recollections of the testimony provided to define shelf company and the filing requirements related to income.
A "shelf company" is one that is created and then lies dormant with no assets or activity. When some person or entity needs a company, a shelf company can be acquired for immediate use, not needing to go through the creation process.
It is created, put on the shelf, and taken down off the shelf when someone wants to acquire an existing empty company.
Note: as distinct from shell corporation.
A shell corporation is a company or corporation that exists only on paper and has no office and no employees, but may have a bank account or may hold passive investments or be the registered owner of assets, such as intellectual property, or ships. Shell companies may be registered to the address of a company that provides a service setting up shell companies, and which may act as the agent for receipt of legal correspondence (such as an accountant or lawyer). The company may serve as a vehicle for business transactions without itself having any significant assets or operations. Sometimes, shell companies are used for tax evasion, tax avoidance, and money laundering, or to achieve a specific goal such as anonymity. Anonymity may be sought to shield personal assets from others, such as a spouse when a marriage is breaking down, from creditors, from government authorities, besides others.
Shell companies do have legitimate business purposes. They may, for example, act as trustee for a trust, and not engage in any other activity on its own account. This structure creates limited liability for the trustee. A corporate shell can also be formed around a partnership to create limited liability for the partners, and other business ventures, or to immunize one part of a business from the risks of another part. Shell companies can be used to transfer assets from one company into a new one, while leaving the liabilities in the former company.
#3 Judge Ellis advised that the government is not required to prove the defendant's guilt beyond all possible doubt — only doubt based on reason.
#4 Judge Ellis advised that the exhibit list could NOT be amended to include the indictment; the jury would have to rely on their own memory of the testimony.
Jury adjourned for the day, to resume deliberations tomorrow at 9:30 a.m.
The Q&A about the FBAR reporting requirements would appear to annihilate four counts regarding reporting requirements.
The Q&A about reasonable doubt is not what the prosecution wants to hear.
Looks good for Manafort then? Prosecution appears o be whiffing.
Ellis is a fair judge. And NOT about to be intimidated.

Vu a grenets, vu a hafn, vu a kretshme, bin ikh do!

Where a border, where a harbor, where a tavern, I am there!
Make way! Make way! For I, Mr. Jew, am traveling!
One of the most important words in the Yiddish languages is gules. It comes from the Hebrew galut: exile, or more specifically, the exile. It stands for the entire epic of the Jewish diaspora—the basic story which has defined and fostered many Jewish identities and cultures. For centuries, Jewishness was something synonymous with dispersion, displacement, migration, homelessness, otherness. Yiddish itself was born out of gules. Never having had an official territory of its own, Yiddish carries vocabulary and grammatical traces of the many languages amidst which it has lived. "I speak dozens of languages, but all of them in Yiddish," someone once said. In Yiddish, exile isn't only a state in which one finds oneself, it is a way of being. It is something one is. More specifically, it is something one carries, or shleps. Shlepn gules. While particular in its reference to Jews, there is much value in seeing it as a universally human condition. In the world today, more people than ever before find themselves—as the writer Michael Wex puts it—"Shlepping the exile."
As a Jewish American, I wasn't taught much about the culture of my immigrant forebears. I knew that they came from somewhere in "the Old Country," crossed the mighty Atlantic, and were reborn on the streets of cities like New York, Cleveland, and Detroit. As far as I knew, they left their language—with all of its songs, stories, and memories—at the docks on Ellis Island. I knew that my grandmother could speak Yiddish, but she never uttered a word of it around me. Some ten years after my bar mitzvah, I discovered Klezmer music while busking in the French Quarter in New Orleans. The old Jewish wedding tunes were part of the eclectic repertoire of the street musicians. This encounter led me to a contemporary, international, and progressive world of Yiddish culture that has been small but thriving for the last forty years. I had found Yiddishland, a kind of virtual country, but one permanently, joyously in gules. And through singing and translating Yiddish songs I discovered the key, not only to my own cultural inheritance, but to my relationship with the cultures that surround me today.
To interpret Yiddish songs in a contemporary context is to breathe life into the songs of a Jewish world and a people that has been scattered, shattered, maligned, cheapened by nostalgia, and forgotten. I see it as a kind of song smuggling: taking these old stories, melodies, and ideas over the borders of time, context, and language–and repurposing them for our own lives. As a new immigrant to Yiddishland, I had good teachers. Singer-scholars such as Michael Alpert and Adrienne Cooper illuminated the ways Yiddish culture persists in its ability to move us, regardless of our backgrounds. They showed me that much of what was considered lost, could be sung back into the world.
Perhaps the most prominent proponent of Yiddish folk song in the American folk revival was the actor-singer-activist-translator Theodore Bikel. After a career that spanned seven decades, Theo passed away this last summer. I had the honor of having him as a friend, mentor, and comrade. Singing in over twenty languages, Theo's universalist humanism—fused with his commitment to a dynamic and defiant Jewishness—was rooted in the songs themselves. As he said, "I sing Jewish songs not because they are better songs than the songs of my neighbor. I sing them because they are mine and unless I sing them, that part of the culture will vanish…" His songs were his cultural passport. He was at once an ambassador and a smuggler. He translated numerous songs into singable English and rendered them accessible to a population for whom they were not intended. He opened them up to the world.
Songs may be among the most durable, resilient, and effective reservoirs of personal and cultural memory and identity. In them, we encounter not only the stories of those individuals who sing them, but the stories of all those who sang them before. Their stories are encoded in the ways the songs change as they migrate through generations and geography. Indeed, these songs describe not only a traditional folk culture as something to be protected and preserved, but in that tradition's constant flux, adaptation, and migration. This living culture, if respected and allowed to breathe and grow, can be an invaluable gift.
For the past couple years, I and a few of my Klezmer comrades have been traveling and singing as The Brothers Nazaroff . We are acolytes and heirs-in-spirit to the little-known Yiddish and Russian troubadour Nathan "Prince" Nazaroff. In 2011, we decided to form a "family band" of Nazaroffs and to focus exclusively on the repertoire of the great lost "Prince." The result of this brotherly union has been released by Smithsonian Folkways in the form of a new album, The Happy Prince. We revel in exactly the kind of immigrant, diaspora Jewishness many modern Jews have been made to disdain or deny—to be lucky and well-traveled Jews, mazeldike, gulesdike yidn.
The Brothers Nazaroff hail from all over the world. I, Daniel Kahn (a.k.a Danik Nazaroff) from Detroit, live in Berlin. My musical partner Psoy Korolenko (Pasha Nazaroff) from Moscow, is currently living in New Jersey. Jake Shulman-Ment (Yankl Nazaroff) resides in New York, France, and sometimes Romania. Our drummer Hampus Melin (Hempl Nazaroff) of Malmö, Sweden, lives in Berlin. With us are also two of our mentors and teachers: Michael Alpert (Misha Nazaroff) of L.A., living in Scotland, and Bob Cohen (Zaelic Nazaroff) of the Bronx, living in Budapest.
We all harbor a love of Nazaroff's one known Yiddish release, 1954 Folkways 10-inch Jewish Freilach Songs. Freilach means "happy." This nine-track album manages to capture not only the performance of the artist, but the energy and spirit of a whole culture. In the twang of Nazaroff's singing and octophone (a kind of tenor mandolin), one hears the sound of Coney Island boardwalks, Odessa streets, bungalows in the Catskills, Polish shtetl barnyards, Broadway buses, and steamship steerages. The Yiddish lyrics speak of cows, Wall Street, vodka, campfires, fishing boats, bicycles, fiddlers, gypsy girls, broken hearts, and dancing. They are as urbane as a tenement, and as rustic as a watermill, as European as Soviet gangster ballads and as American as kosher hot dogs. It was at this cultural crossroads where the Russian Jewish vaudevillian Nathan Nazaroff met legendary Folkways founder, Moses Asch–himself, the son of the famous Yiddish writer Sholem Asch. Jewish Freilach Songs was not the first or the only Jewish-oriented record on Folkways, but it was certainly the rawest, earthiest, and most raucous.
Oy bin ikh a mazeldiker, mazeldiker yid.
The playful lyric translations printed on the Folkways insert communicate the spirit of the original Yiddish text. Akin to Theodore Bikel's song translations, but considerably hokier, they capture Prince Nazaroff's buoyant spontaneity and jovial exuberance. Indeed, translation can be the most transgressive form of song smuggling. For that reason, we decided that, when recording The Brothers Nazaroff: The Happy Prince, we would sing many of the songs in English as well. Where the liner notes didn't lend themselves to be sung, we wrote our own. It's not great poetry. But Nazaroff was no high artist. He was a song worker, a "big time performer," as he is described on an original Folkways promo card. He was a master of the old tradition of the Yiddish tumler, a wedding party merry-maker, and kupletist, an extemporaneous rhymer. In 1954, at a time when the interest in Yiddish was waning, it is remarkable that he chose to make a record of happy Jewish songs. But the intensity of his freilach energy transcends the particular historical moment in which it was produced. The Brothers Nazaroff and I have been playing these songs from the mountains of Quebec to the streets of New York to bars in Paris, Budapest, and Chisinau. The music works everywhere.
We know very few personal details about Nazaroff himself, but we do know that he was an immigrant who lived most of his life in New York City.1 When Nazaroff came to America's shores, he brought in his songs a way of being, of seeing the world, and a lot of really catchy tunes. He smuggled in his own kind of joy and sorrow. The original EP's liner notes tell us that he came to America from somewhere in "Middle Europe" (most likely Odessa, Ukraine) in 1914, the year of the outbreak of The Great War. Recent information has revealed that he actually migrated to the US from Russia sometime before 1913. It was a time when repressions in Eastern Europe had become unbearable for Jews, forcing many to emigrate. The coming war would only make the situation more unbearable.
Until 1924, thousands of Jews died in European pogroms and millions emigrated to the New World. After 1924, when the US closed its doors and imposed strict ethnic immigration quotas, thousands emigrated and, in the end, millions stayed in Europe and died. This is a stark reminder of the cost of closing borders to the "floods" of refugees. Unfortunately, today's times are not exempt from the fear and hate-mongering of anti-immigrant hysteria.
Though I'm a native Detroiter, I have lived for the last ten years in a neighborhood in Berlin, Neukölln, comprised largely of gulesdik, or "diasporic" communities. On Karl-Marx-Strasse, my main thoroughfare, Turkish, Arabic, Romanian, Hebrew, Polish, Russian, Kurdish, Farsi, and African French mix fluidly with the German and English which serve as more or less common tongues. As others refer to the current arrival of new people to the cities of Europe as a "crisis" or a "flood," there are many here who value this encounter. These people are not a flood, made of water. They are themselves vessels. They are witnesses to contemporary history, with all of its cataclysms, ironies, and troubles. They are shlepping their own exiles and smuggling treasures. Some of the most valuable possessions people shlep in their gules may weigh nothing at all. They are songs. And singing them, translating them, and breathing life into them, can show us that we're really all foreigners. We're all gulesdike, mazeldike Jews.

Every Thursday I volunteer with a dietitian and listen to people talk about what they eat on a daily basis.
I gather that many people living in New York City go out to eat…a lot. And who is to blame? There are so many available and easy restaurants to eat at here.
Dietitians talk about making small dietary and lifestyle changes. Small changes may add up to big results later.
Even myself, working 5 nights a week as a pastry cook (nevermind that I am a dietitian-in-training and a pastry cook all at the same time…trust me, I am in a constant state of confusion…), I live for my one night a week that I actually get to cook dinner.
Cooking at home can cut your sodium/saturated fat intake by a great deal. And hopefully you will have leftovers to eat for lunch the next day or so. Oh, and it's probably a lot cheaper.
Stews and "everything salads" are my go-to's. I'm all over the tofu curries, the peanut stews, the grainy green soups, the classic bean and pasta minestrones.
This stew that I made from Sprouted Kitchen's blog really hit the spot for me this week. I rarely cook with cabbage, and I enjoyed it very much in this stew. And I think that pureeing a bit of the soup just to thicken the broth a bit is key here. Plus the avocado + tortilla crispies are divine.
February is national Healthy Heart month. Do something good for your heart and make this stew. Your heart will thank you later.
In a heavy bottomed pot, warm the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and saute until just beginning to brown, about 6-8 minutes. Add the garlic, cabbage, squash and broth. Turn the heat down to a gentle simmer, cover the pot and cook for about 15-20 minutes for the vegetables to cook.
For the tortilla crispies, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Stack them and slice into thin matchsticks. Spread on a baking sheet, drizzle with the oil, sprinkle the salt and toss gently to coat. Spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for about 10-15 minutes until they are light brown and crispy, giving the pan a shake halfway through.
Garnish each both with some diced avocado, a handful of chopped cilantro and some of the tortilla crispies!
Sounds delicious!! And thanks for the reminders on how great it is to cook your own meals at home. I've needed some inspiration lately 🙂 And thanks again for putting together the newsletter today!

Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area promotes region's cultural heritage
Members of the 2016 MDNHA Board of Directors and staff
The Board of Directors for the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area recently held its May meeting at Delta Council headquarters in Stoneville, Mississippi. The board, chaired by Dr. Myrtis Tabb, welcomed new board members and discussed various partnership opportunities that will continue to promote the Mississippi Delta's rich cultural heritage.
"I am pleased to work with the Board of Directors of MDNHA," said Dr. Tabb. "We are excited to welcome our new members and continue moving into the implementation phase of a comprehensive management plan developed by a thorough process of meetings with groups and stakeholders throughout the region. Our goal is to empower as many voices as possible so that the story of the Delta is told by a chorus, rather than a few."
The 15-member board includes representatives from Mississippi Valley State, Alcorn State and Delta State University, as well as the Delta Foundation, Smith Robertson Museum, Delta Council, Mississippi Arts Commission, Mississippi Department of Archives and History, and Mississippi Humanities Council. In addition, the governor and counties falling within five Delta districts appoint representatives to the board.
"Our board and our staff continue to work together, building the Mississippi Delta's capacity to fulfill the MDNHA's management plan through diverse partnerships," said Dr. Rolando Herts, director of of The Delta Center for Culture and Learning, which serves as the management entity for the MDNHA. "Regional initiatives like the Delta Jewels Oral History Partnership, the Passport to Your National Parks Program, GRAMMY Museum Mississippi's 'Top 40 Places to Visit in the Mississippi Delta' website, and the MDNHA Grants Program represent creative and inclusive ways that we are fulfilling the plan."
In November 2015, Herts was invited to represent the MDNHA and The Delta Center in a panel discussion at the National Trust for Historic Preservation's 2015 PastForward Conference in Washington, D.C. The conference launched a year-long celebration of the National Historic Preservation Act's 50th anniversary, attracting hundreds of historic preservation scholars, policymakers, experts and activists from around the nation. The panel discussion was part of the preservationVOICES Learning Lab presentation track organized by the National Trust in partnership with the National Park Service and the Kellogg Foundation. The session, "Recognizing Our Shared History," focused on how the National Park Service works to tell inclusive stories of all Americans.
In keeping with the PastForward Conference presentation, the MDNHA manages the Delta Jewels Oral History Partnership. The partnership has engaged over 800 Mississippi Delta residents and visitors through programs that raise awareness about the educational and cultural value of capturing community stories. The programs are offered to Mississippi organizations and communities in collaboration with Alysia Burton Steele, University of Mississippi journalism professor and author of "Delta Jewels: In Search of My Grandmother's Wisdom." Oral history presentations about the book have been held in several MDNHA communities including Clarksdale, Charleston, Indianola, Yazoo City, Ruleville, Mound Bayou, Cleveland, Vicksburg and Itta Bena. Programs also have been held outside the MDNHA at Jackson State University, Alcorn State University and the University of Southern Mississippi.
In March 2016, to commemorate Women's History Month and the National Park Service Centennial, the Delta Jewels Oral History Partnership presented at the Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum in Washington, D.C. The program featured 92-year-old Annyce Campbell of Mound Bayou, who graces the cover of "Delta Jewels," and Reena Evers, daughter of civil rights icons Medgar Evers and Myrlie Evers-Williams. Campbell also visited the White House.
The MDNHA manages the Passport to Your National Parks program which features passport stations in each of the region's 18 counties. The Delta Center serves as the program headquarters, welcoming passport collectors traveling the region and directing them to passport locations throughout the MDNHA, including the B.B. King Museum and Delta Interpretive Center in Sunflower County, tourism visitor centers in Coahoma, Tunica, Yazoo and Warren counties, and courthouses in Carroll, Holmes, Quitman, Sharkey, Tallahatchie and Tate counties.
Members of the National Park Travelers Club have toured the MDNHA collecting National Park Service passport stamps as a way to celebrate the 2016 National Park Service Centennial.
"We would not have known about all of the interesting places to visit in the Delta had it not been for this program," said Leland Warzala, a club member from Illinois. "We knew that we had to visit all of the counties here, because we wanted to get all of the stamps. We had no idea that there are so many great things to see and do along the way, like the Crossroads sign [in Clarksdale], Dockery Farms and all of the Blues Trail markers."
GRAMMY Museum® Mississippi opened its doors to the region, the nation, and the world this year. As part of the grand opening celebration, the museum partnered with the MDNHA to launch the "Top 40 Places to Visit in the Mississippi Delta" website.
The website features cultural heritage attractions throughout the Mississippi Delta that tell the region's diverse stories. The site underscores the museum and MDNHA's shared interest in promoting the entire 18-county Mississippi Delta region as an educational cultural heritage destination of which its residents should be proud.
"As GRAMMY Museum Mississippi, we explore and celebrate the enduring legacies of all forms of music, and we're also telling the story of the cradle of America's music right here in Cleveland, the heart of the Mississippi Delta," said Emily Havens, executive director of the museum. "Our area's rich musical legacy is a source of pride for Delta residents. We want to encourage everyone to explore and learn about our entire region, from local school groups to travelers from around the globe."
In April 2016, The Delta Center hosted a group of Swedish music tourists. In addition to experiencing the GRAMMY Museum, the group visited several attractions included on the Top 40 list including Dockery Farms and Mississippi Blues Trail markers throughout the MDNHA. The group also experienced an African American church service in Clarksdale, a tribute to the MDNHA's cultural heritage theme celebrating the region as a "Wellspring of Creativity."
For these and various other programmatic successes, The Delta Center was presented the 2016 Georgene Clark Diversity Champion Award at Delta State University's Winning the Race Conference.
"Through the Heritage Area partnership, the Mississippi Delta region can come together to take pride in our diverse culture and history," said Herts. "Our stories surrounding issues of race, social injustice, civil rights, identity and expressions of faith have shaped and reflect the American experience."
At the May meeting, the MDNHA selected inaugural recipients of the organization's grant program. Grant programs are created and managed by many National Heritage Areas across the U.S. to support local organizations' cultural heritage education, interpretation, and promotion efforts.
"We have recently completed the first round of a formal grants program," explained Tabb. "The management plan calls for us to create a program to fund seed projects that meet the heritage area's goals. Many worthwhile proposals were submitted for this round from agencies and organizations throughout the Delta. Even though we were unable to fund them all, we were excited to see the work already taking place in the region. We look forward to continuing the grants program and partnering with others celebrating our diverse Delta heritage."
The next deadline for grant proposals is July 5. Those awarded grants will be notified at the end of August. To find out more about the grants, or the MDNHA, visit www.msdeltaheritage.com.

NEH "Most Southern" workshops create Delta ambassadors
In total, 72 K-12 teachers from across the nation took part in this summer's "Most Southern Place on Earth" workshops. Photos by Amy Kramer and Brady Gilliam.
The National Endowment for the Humanities' "Most Southern Place on Earth" workshop, presented twice this summer (June 21-27 and July 12-18) by The Delta Center for Culture and Learning at Delta State University, exposed 72 K-12 teachers from throughout the United States to the Mississippi Delta's rich history and cultural heritage. Workshop participants represented 33 states, including Alaska, California, Florida, New Hampshire and Indiana. Several teachers from Mississippi participated as well, including a teacher from Mound Bayou.
Over the past six years, the NEH workshops have brought over $1 million in federal grants to Delta State University. Through these grants, the workshops have generated educational and economic spread effects regionally and nationally.
The workshop model uses an experiential learning approach, giving participants direct contact with and access to historically and culturally significant people and places in the Mississippi Delta. Dr. Rolando Herts, director of The Delta Center, said this approach inspires deeper understanding of historical events among the participants. The approach also stimulates economic activity, as workshop participants stay in hotels, dine in restaurants and visit educational attractions in Cleveland, Bolivar County and the Delta region.
"This blending of educational and tourism-centered economic activity is beneficial to the Mississippi Delta's federal designation as a National Heritage Area," said Herts. "The Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area is a partnership between the region and the National Park Service to raise awareness of the value of the Mississippi Delta's rich cultural heritage."
The NEH workshop has created a national network of over 500 educational and cultural ambassadors for the MDNHA. Participants take what they have learned from the workshop back to their schools and communities, sharing stories and lessons from the Delta with students, colleagues, family, and friends nationally and globally. Over the years, many past participants have made return visits to the region, bringing others with them, which has broadened the workshop's educational and economic impact for the MDNHA.
Dr. Luther Brown, former director of The Delta Center, returned to serve as lead facilitator of this year's workshops, with support from Lee Aylward, and Brady Gilliam and Amy Kramer, both Robertson Scholars from Duke University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Workshop participants heard presentations from blues, southern religion and great migration experts, including: Dr. David Evans, professor of ethnomusicology and regional Studies, University of Memphis; Mississippi Delta native, Dr. Edgar Smith, former vice president of Academic Affairs, University of Massachusetts System; Dr. Charles Reagan Wilson, former director of the Center for the Study of Southern Culture, University of Mississippi; and Dr. John Strait, professor of geography at Sam Houston State University.
In addition, workshop participants were engaged with living historical figures, including civil rights activis Charles McLaurin, who met Fannie Lou Hamer while working with the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee; Cathy Wong, who spoke about the presence of Chinese in the Delta and their cultural influence; and key people involved with the Emmett Till story, including Till's cousins Simeon Wright and Wheeler Parker, both of whom were with Till before his murder.
Participants also visited many historical and educational points of interest throughout the region, including: Dockery Farm, known as the birthplace of the blues, located between Cleveland and Ruleville; Taborian Hospital in Mound Bayou; Emmett Till Intrepid Center in Glendora; blues legend Robert Johnson's gravesite at Little Zion Missionary Baptist Church and Fort Pemberton in Greenwood; and the 1927 Flood Museum, Century of History Museum at Hebrew Union Congregation, and Chinese and African American cemeteries in Greenville. The group also traveled to Memphis, the Delta's largest city, to visit The Cotton Museum, National Civil Rights Museum and Stax Museum of American Soul Music.
The mission of The Delta Center is to promote greater understanding of Mississippi Delta culture and history and its significance to the world through education, partnerships and community engagement. The Delta Center serves as the management entity of the MDNHA and is the home of the NEH's "Most Southern Place on Earth" workshop and the International Delta Blues Project.

Delta Jewels oral history session hosted
WILL interns and Dr. Morford from the University of Illinois Laboratory High School pose in front of Coahoma County Higher Education Center with Alysia Burton Steele (left) and Dr. Rolando Herts (right) of The Delta Center.
The Delta Center for Culture and Learning and the Coahoma County Higher Education Center recently hosted an oral history session in Clarksdale. The session featured University of Mississippi photojournalism professor Alysia Burton Steele, author of "Delta Jewels: In Search of My Grandmother's Wisdom," a collection of oral histories and photographs of African American church mothers from the Mississippi Delta.
Dr. Janet Morford, history teacher and director of the WILL oral history internship program (http://will.illinois.edu/community/project/university-high-documentaries) in the Department of Social Studies at University of Illinois Laboratory High School, brought 11 of her high school interns to the Delta to conduct oral histories. Morford is a June 2014 alumnus of The Delta Center's National Endowment for the Humanities "Most Southern Place on Earth" workshop. She learned about Steele's oral history work from Dr. Luther Brown, retired director of The Delta Center.
"The NEH Most Southern workshop creates highly committed and influential educational and cultural ambassadors for the Delta region," said Brown. "Over the years, workshop alumni have made return visits to the Delta on their own, bringing students, co-workers, family and friends, introducing them to the culture and history of the region."
"We are pleased that Dr. Brown remains connected to The Delta Center through the NEH Most Southern workshop," said Dr. Rolando Herts, current director of The Delta Center. "He regularly sends Delta news e-blasts to our NEH alumni network, which now has over 500 members. The most recent e-blast led to the creation of this oral history session with Alysia Burton Steele, Dr. Morford and her students at the Coahoma County Higher Education Center, where they learned about doing oral history work in the Delta. They also learned about The Delta Center, the NEH workshop, the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area, and most importantly, each other."
For the latest Most Southern e-blast, Herts encouraged Brown to include information about Steele's "Gathering of the Delta Jewels" event taking place in Mound Bayou. When Morford read about it, she realized that her oral history team would be visiting the Delta during the event. She seized the opportunity to connect her students with Steele.
The Delta Center convened the group based on its relationships with Morford, Steele and the CCHEC through NEH, the MDNHA and Delta State. This yielded a rich conversation about the importance of connections in oral history work.
Morford and her team members were thrilled with the experience.
"Today's session demonstrates that the circle of influence keeps widening for the NEH Most Southern Place on Earth workshop," said Morford. "That's the true spirit of the workshop and of doing oral history work. The more that we talk to each other, the more we learn from each other, and the more we realize that we still have much more to learn."
Herts facilitated an overview of these connections, highlighting the roles and contributions of all session participants. Jen Waller, director of the CCHEC, gave a brief historical overview of the CCHEC complex and its relationship with Delta State.

"We are so pleased that Dr. Herts and The Delta Center used the Coahoma County Higher Education Center in Clarksdale as their meeting space for intellectual exchange," said Waller. "As a satellite campus of DSU and Coahoma Community College, the CCHEC is the perfect setting for discussions focused on history, culture and life-long learning."
The Delta Center's Lee Aylward discussed how the group's visit helps to fulfill and sustain the educational impact of the NEH workshop.
"Dr. Morford's return visit with her class is an outstanding example of what the Delta Center had hoped would be an outcome of these very prestigious NEH workshops," said Aylward. "We want our alumni to bring students and encourage friends and coworkers to visit the Delta and learn our history and its importance to the rest of the world."
Herts shared The Delta Center's mission and its work with the MDNHA to promote the history and culture of the Delta, in part through oral history research. This led to the introduction of Steele as the featured presenter.
Steele was thrilled that Morford contacted her about meeting with the WILL interns and was pleased that The Delta Center and CCHEC were willing to host the session. She made a special trip from Oxford to Clarksdale to participate in the session, ready to share the joys and challenges of the oral history craft.

"I was very impressed with the WILL interns and the depth and breadth of their knowledge about oral history research," said Steele. "While they know a great deal already, they also were so very humble, which is so refreshing and encouraging. They were eager to learn by listening to me talk about how I gathered the stories from the Delta Jewels church mothers. Listening intently and respectfully, as well as knowing when to respond, are key skills in oral history research. This group obviously is highly skilled and well trained, so I must give kudos to their teachers, Dr. Morford and Mr. Sutton. They are doing great work."
Bill Sutton, a history teacher at the University Laboratory School, who is traveling with Morford and the student interns, has made educational visits to the Delta in the past. He inspired Morford to apply for the NEH Most Southern workshop and is pleased to see the results of her participation.
"In addition to this session with Alysia being a high point of our trip, Janet's experience with the NEH workshop has opened up more options for us to study and understand the Delta," said Sutton. "I have been coming to the Delta for several years now. With Janet, our internship program leader and a NEH workshop alum, the visits will keep getting better and better. Janet bringing this knowledge and experience back to our school has been remarkable. Alysia also is remarkable, and The Delta Center and Delta State are tremendous educational and cultural resources. I have every expectation that we all will continue to work together in the future."
"The fact that the WILL Interns have had such a meaningful exchange with Alysia Burton Steele shows that high school students can develop very high level skills – by doing oral history and by talking with experts like Alysia who have also engaged in this demanding but rewarding work," added Morford. "Being able to come to the Mississippi Delta with the support of our school, and to engage with the resources of Delta State through this session, has been extremely valuable for our students. This truly has been a transformative educational and cultural experience for all of us."
Student WILL Intern Iulianna Taritsa also appreciated the unique opportunity.
"My time in the Delta has been an amazing and enriching experience," said Taritsa. "I could see and feel the rich history, and I am so glad that there are people like Alysia Burton Steele and organizations like The Delta Center for Culture and Learning that are helping others understand the significance of this area. I know our WILL team from Uni High has learned a lot from the people we met in the Delta and hopefully we will be able to tell our stories and theirs once we get back to Champaign-Urbana."
The Delta Center has offered the NEH Most Southern workshop for the past six years. This summer, 74 K-12 educators from across the U.S. once again are being immersed in two six-day experiential learning workshops in the Mississippi Delta. Participants take what they have learned back to their schools, teaching students and colleagues about the rich history and cultural heritage of the Delta region. The Delta Center has engaged Brown to return to the region and facilitate the workshops.
The NEH Most Southern workshops are held at Delta State University and throughout the region. The dates for the 2015 workshops are June 21-27 and July 12-18. For more information, visithttp://deltacenterforcultureandlearning.com/southern-place-workshop/.

MDNHA updates provided in Greenwood
Dr. Rolando Herts (left to right), director of the Delta Center for Culture and Learning and the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area, recently met with Cheryl Taylor, executive director, Museum of the Mississippi Delta; Tonja Ray Smith, executive director, Greenwood Convention & Visitors Bureau; and Luther Wade, president, Greenwood Rotary Club.
Dr. Rolando Herts, director of the Delta Center for Culture and Learning and the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area (MDNHA), visited Greenwood recently to share updates on the implementation of the MDNHA Management Plan. The visit included a tour of the Museum of the Mississippi Delta to discuss their renovation plans and a presentation to the Greenwood Rotary Club.
Cheryl Taylor, executive director of the Museum of the Mississippi Delta, gave Herts a tour of the museum, which is scheduled to reopen in May. Taylor will use the MDNHA Management Plan to help guide the creation of new exhibits that will interpret the history of the Mississippi Delta.
"We are excited to learn about the museum's plans to incorporate our five cultural heritage themes," said Herts. "The Management Plan was written as a resource for the people of the Mississippi Delta, particularly for cultural programming that stimulates tourism in the region and promotes local education and pride of place. By doing this, the Museum of the Mississippi Delta not only will be fulfilling its mission, but it also will be demonstrating how our institutions and citizens can actively engage with the Heritage Area."
The MDNHA's five cultural heritage themes are: (1) The Mississippi Delta and the Land It Embraces; (2) The Culture of the Blues and the Birth of an American Sound; (3) Moving Toward Freedom: Changing America's Character in the Struggle for Rights; (4) Growing More than Cotton: The Delta as a Wellspring of Creativity; and (5) The Delta Divide: Creating the Delta's Diverse Communities.
"The Museum of the Mississippi Delta sees the importance of telling the Delta's story comprehensively and inclusively," said Taylor, "We can achieve this by interpreting Heritage Area themes in our new exhibits. The Museum is well known for its extensive Native American collection, as well as military and agricultural artifacts and Mississippi artwork. We look forward to using our collections to create innovative exhibits centered on the MDNHA themes."
After touring the museum, Herts spoke at the Greenwood Rotary Club. The presentation included an overview of the Delta Center's role as MDNHA's management entity, as well as the MDNHA's goals and themes. Herts also discussed recent expansion of the MDNHA Passport Program throughout the 18-county region. The Greenwood Convention and Visitors Bureau serves as the passport stamp location for Leflore County.
"The Greenwood CVB is pleased to collaborate with the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area Passport Program," said Tonja Ray Smith, CVB executive director, "By hosting the passport for Leflore County, we will welcome travelers to our community, direct them to area attractions like the Museum of the Mississippi Delta, and encourage them to visit other destinations throughout the Mississippi Delta that will educate tourists about the national significance of the Delta's culture."
Herts also highlighted upcoming partnership events that promote MDNHA cultural heritage themes. These events include the opening reception of the Winning the Race diversity conference at Delta State University scheduled for March 30, which will provide Delta residents and visitors an opportunity to meet Robert Stanton, the first African American director of the National Park Service. The MDNHA will also be hosting Delta Jewels Community Gatherings featuring journalism professor, Alysia Burton Steele, and her new book of photography and oral histories on African American church mothers from the Delta. The gatherings will take place in municipalities across the region, including Clarksdale, Charleston, Ruleville, Indianola and Yazoo City.
The MDNHA is a partnership between the people of the Mississippi Delta and the National Park Service. The MDNHA was designated by U.S. Congress in 2009 and is governed by a board of directors representing agencies and organizations defined in the Congressional legislation. More information about the MDNHA, including the complete approved management plan, is available at www.msdeltaheritage.com.

Delta Center welcomes new director

Photo by Roy Meeks.
The Delta Center for Culture and Learning at Delta State University is pleased to announce the arrival of its new director, Dr. Rolando Herts. Herts officially began serving in his new role Aug. 18 after the retirement of Dr. Luther Brown, who established the Delta Center in the year 2000.
"I am excited about working with colleagues at Delta State and partners throughout the Mississippi Delta region," said Herts. "The Delta Center will be managing the implementation of the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area, as well as overseeing the International Delta Blues Project. These and other exciting initiatives and programs will utilize the region's rich cultural heritage as a tool for promoting education, tourism, community engagement and economic development."
Brown said he looks forward to seeing Herts take on the leading role.
"The Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area is benefiting the entire Mississippi Delta. It has a strong management plan, and Rolando Herts will lead the effort to turn the plan into reality," said Brown.
Herts has years of experience working in and conducting research on the Delta region. After completing undergraduate and graduate programs at Morehouse College in Atlanta and the University of Chicago, he returned to the Delta to teach second grade in Indianola with Teach For America. He also directed TRIO Student Support Services at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff.
While at Pine Bluff, he exposed students to educational cultural heritage and civil rights attractions in Memphis, Atlanta, Birmingham and in Arkansas communities. He earned a doctorate in planning and public policy from Rutgers University, where he examined the MDNHA as a case study of university-community tourism engagement.
"I spent formative years in Eudora, Arkansas, and graduated from Little Rock Central High School, a National Historic Site of the National Park Service — where nine black students led school integration efforts in 1957," said Herts. "Growing up, all around me were reminders of the importance of cultural heritage, education and community.
"Attending Morehouse reinforced this with educational, social justice and heritage leaders like Dr. Martin Luther King, Dr. Benjamin Elijah Mays and Dr. Wendell Whalum as exemplars. While working on my doctorate at Rutgers, I met Dr. Luther Brown through Ron Nurnberg, executive director of Teach For America Mississippi Delta. Dr. Brown has been an excellent mentor who has worked tirelessly to preserve and promote cultural heritage in and for the Delta region. I am humbled by this opportunity to help carry on this important legacy."
Given its management role with the MDNHA and the International Delta Blues Project, the Delta Center will be expanding its capacity to serve as a regional connector and resource for understanding and celebrating the Mississippi Delta's cultural heritage. Through funding from the Hearin Foundation, the center will soon be hiring a director of blues studies. Undergraduate internship and graduate assistantship positions also will be created, providing Delta State students with experience that will prepare them to engage with the Delta's emerging cultural economy.
"The Delta region was fortunate to have a visionary like Dr. Luther Brown come into the Delta and open all our eyes to our rich heritage," said Lee Aylward, DCCl program associate for education and community outreach. "With the arrival of Dr. Herts, the Delta Center will be spreading its wings, not only building on this legacy, but also expanding programming and engagement throughout the Delta.
"As a native of the Delta, Dr. Herts brings to the table an understanding and desire to help promote the region and its importance to the world. With the new program in blues studies coming to the Delta Center, and the approval of the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area's management plan, these are exciting times at the Delta Center. Dr. Herts' education, background and energy make him the ideal person to lead us to the next level."

Delta Center director receives service award
L to R: Heather Miller and Lee Aylward of the Delta Center, Dr. Henry Outlaw, formerly of the Delta Center, and Dr. Charles McAdams, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs at Delta State.
The Mississippi Heritage Trust recently awarded Dr. Luther Brown, Director of the Delta State Delta Center for Culture and Learning and the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area the "Heritage Award for Distinguished Service."
"I'm deeply honored to receive this award in recognition of the establishment of the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area. Many people and numerous entities have worked hard to make this Heritage Area possible, and some have worked for over a decade to see this happen," said Brown.
This recognition is in honor of all of these individuals and groups who have partnered to promote the Delta's heritage, and I thank them for their continued enthusiasm and hard work."
The Delta Center is the manager of the Heritage Area. The award was presented in Tupelo during the Mississippi Heritage Trust's annual meeting. Dr. Brown could not attend in person, so Lee Aylward of the Delta Center accepted the award on his behalf.
"It is very fitting that Dr. Brown has been recognized by the Mississippi Heritage Trust at its bi-annual meeting with an award for Distinguished Service. From its inception fourteen years ago, the Delta Center through his leadership has introduced hundreds in this country and abroad to the importance of the Mississippi Delta to our country and to the rest of the world, and it is through his efforts that the Mississippi Delta National Heritage Area is being established," said Aylward.
His work will remain as a standard for others to continue this important work."

I consider Teryl's structures to be some of the best designed works anywhere. His work presents me with endless images. I find myself discovering so many nuances and details in the design that I am often amazed at all the vision Teryl has incorporated in his buildings.
