He will discuss

“Lincoln and the Politics of Slavery”

The Other Thirteenth Amendment and the

Struggle to Save the Union

Daniel W.Crofts, Professor Emeritus,

History Department, College of New Jersey

Professor Crofts earned his doctorate at Yale

in 1968 and taught history at the College of New

Jersey from 1975 to 2014. He has authored six

North and South that led to the Civil War.

In his latest book “Lincoln and the Politics of

Slavery” which is the focus of his presentation,

he examines a little-known episode in the most

role as the “Great Emancipator”. Lincoln always

hated slavery, but he also believed it to be legal

where it already existed, and he never imagined

ditch effort to preserve the Union and prevent war,

Lincoln even offered to accept a constitutional

amendment that barred Congress from interfering

with slavery in the slave states. Lincoln made this

Professor Crofts unearths the hidden history and

political maneuvering behind the stillborn attempt

to enact this amendment, the polar opposite of the

actual Thirteenth Amendment of 1865 that ended

slavery.

Welcome New Residents

William and Gail

They moved to Pennswood Village on

February, 2017, from Morrisville, NJ. Bill and

Gail have been welcomed to Pennswood,

particularly by other residents that are

members of the medical profession. It is no

wonder, as Dr. Bill, a retired vascular surgeon

and original medical director of the Capital

Health Vascular Laboratory at the Mercer

Campus, is well known to them.

According to the Trenton Times, Bill was

angioplasty in Mercer County. He has also

been published by the New England Journal

of Medicine.

Gail was the Manager of the Vascular

Laboratory, working with Bill. She was able to

use the math and organizational skills she

learned at Bryn Mawr College where she

earned a degree in Anthropology. Gail also

spent two summers at Harvard University,

studying German. Computer classes at Bucks

County Community College were an absolute

necessity for her career.

Bill was born in Baltimore, MD, and joined the

U.S. Navy. He then attended Carlton College,

followed by the University of Pennsylvania

Medical School, and an internship at

Pennsylvania Hospital. His 5-year residency

was spent at the University of Pennsylvania

Medical facility.

Gail and Bill also found time for some very

special recreation. They went on two Linblad

geological educational cruises -one around

the Baja Peninsula and the other the Alaskan

Coast. They were avid sailors, and had

their own seafaring sailboat plying between

Newport and Bermuda and Marion,

MA to Bermuda. Two other major trips took

them kayaking on the Amazon, and canoeing

on the Boise, Idaho River. Many happy

memories to cherish. Bill said he might be

ready to take up golf on the Pennswood

putting green, and has his putting iron in

the trunk of his car. They have one son who

is a lawyer, who studied at George School

and Earlham College and University of

California, Irving. They also are proud of

their two daughters, both with PhDs, one

in microbiology and the other in theoretical

math. The family continues with nine

grandchildren (eight granddaughters and only

ONE grandson).

They are enjoying the gentle days here at

Pennswood.

Opportunities for ActionPolitical activism must be compatible with our Pennswood values of diversity, inclusion, caring,

and creating a culture that is welcoming for all residents.

When does offering people the opportunity to take action become objectionable – pushy and

partisan? Where is the line? Have we overstepped it?

Our intention is to honor both our responsibilities as citizens and responsibilities as members of

of these responsibilities.

Three vehicles for political expression are available for people who do want to take action.

1. Redistricting Reform - This anti-gerrymandering group is working with the Pennsylvania

League of Women Voters’ spin-off, Fair Districts PA, in a years-long process to change the

state constitution. Both Democrats and Republicans in Pennsylvania support the fair drawing

of voting districts. Our Pennswood group has asked people to sign postcards (supplied by Fair

Districts) and petitions addressed to members of the state legislative bodies, asking for their

support and their votes. Providing information to all residents in their open mailboxes or even

under their doors about this complex issue is, in our opinion, reasonable. No PVRA money is

being used by this group; postage is paid for by donations. Notices are posted on the Items of

Interest bulletin board. Eadie is coordinator.

2. Peace and Social Justice Committee - This is a PVRA committee. This group’s goal is to

inform residents and inspire them to take action on issues they care about. In addition to

occasional speakers and movies, this committee provides the Postcard Parties that take place

messages are provided. Of course, residents may write postcards taking any position they wish

to any member of congress. PVRA money is used for postage. Notices are posted on the Peace

and Social Justice and This Week bulletin boards. Lynne and Jan are co-chairs.

3. Elders Indivisible—PA - This group is one of 5,983 such groups nationwide – at least

two in every congressional district. You can read all about the groups’ focus on resistance at

IndivisibleGuide.com. No PVRA money is used by this group. Everyone is welcome at weekly

twice-weekly alerts via email, so they may express their views by calling, faxing, writing,

emailing, or visiting members of congress. Notices are posted on the Items of Interest bulletin

The leaders of these groups believe we can be politically active and, at the same time, preserve

our Pennswood culture.

A Revolutionary Experienceon Friday, July 14, 2017

Over one hundred years in the making, the

Museum of the American Revolution explores the dynamic

story of the American Revolution using an expansive

collection of Revolutionary-era weapons, personal items

including George Washington’s war tent, documents, and

works of art. Immersive galleries, theater experiences, and

recreated historical moments bring to life the events, people,

and ideals of our nation’s founding and engage people in the

history and continuing relevance of the American Revolution.

From the early stirrings of unrest in Boston to the opening

shots of the War of Independence, and from signing of the

Declaration of Independence to the creation of the American

Republic, the Museum’s permanent exhibition explores

the ideas, events, and legacies of America's Revolutionary

beginnings.

Join us on Friday, July 14, 2017 as we explore this new

museum located right here in Philadelphia, PA. And, to

continue the Colonial experience, we will have lunch at City

Tavern (a short 2 block walk from the museum, weather

permitting) where we will dine on elegant sophisticated

cuisine just as our founding fathers did in this historic replica

of the original tavern.

provided at the restaurant.

The sign-up sheet is posted on the Transportation

Bulletin Board located outside of Penn Hall. The museum is

handicapped accessible and there is a handicapped entrance

at the restaurant, however, there will be a lot of walking both

at the museum and to the restaurant.

The Eagle Huntress (2016)

Rys Nurgaiv

Aisholpan, a 13-year-old girl, training to

her Kazakh family to become an eagle hunter,

rises to the pinnacle of a tradition that has

been handed down from father to son for

centuries. While there are many old Kazakh

eagle hunters who vehemently reject the

idea of any female taking part in their ancient

tradition, Aisholpan’s father, Nurgaiv, believes

that a girl can do anything a boy can, as long

as she is determined. This is a movie that

expands your sense of what is possible. A

This fable is both a coming-of-age saga and

a visual feast.

Moana (2016)

Dwyane Johnson

From Walt Disney Animation Studios comes

“Moana,” a sweeping computer generated

teenager who sails out on a daring mission

to save her people. During her journey

Moana meets the once-powerful demi-

god Maui, who guides her in her quest to

become a master seeker. Together they sail

across the open ocean on an action-packed

voyage, encountering enormous monsters

and impossible odds. Along the way Moana

her own identity. This enjoyable adventure

succeeds because of its storyline which pays

tribute to Polynesian culture, and because of

its feel-good music composed by “Hamilton”

creator Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Deep appreciation,
