National Night Out brings police, community together

By KARINA KoVAC kkovac@liherald.com

National Night Out, an annual communitybuilding event involving first responders, police officers and the communities they serve, took place at Baldwin High School Aug. 2. It was co-hosted by Assemblywoman Judy Griffin and County Legislator Debra Mulé, and the Baldwin Fire Department and Fire Aid Department, the Nassau County Police Department and other organizations showed people in Baldwin just how many local resources are available to them.

The aim of National Night Out, which is in its 38th year nationally and its second in Bald-

win, is to heighten crime and drug prevention awareness, generate support for, and participation in, local anti-crime programs, strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships and send a message to criminals that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

“We’re here to show the community what the Fire Department does,” said MaryJo Stuparich, 37, lieutenant at Hose Company One, and in the process, she added, hopefully attracting some new members.

Stuparich, who joined the department 18 years ago, said she hoped that 12- to 18-yearolds would try being junior firefighters, and if Continued on page 6

Professor Plum, in the library, with drug awareness

BALDWIN HERALD — August 11, 2022

By KARINA KOVAC kkovac@liherald.com

In 1970, the Baldwin Council of Drug Abuse (BCADA) was founded by a woman named Ellen Silberman in the name of drug prevention, awareness, education and making a positive impact on the youth smoking marijuana. Coming aboard in 1986 as a part-time secretary, Claudia Rotondo has carried the torch of education and treatment since joining over three and a half decades ago. With a background in education, she started working together with social workers, psychologists and counselors. She was so impressed with the work she was doing she went back to college at Adelphi to get her master’s in social work.

“When I graduated Ellen said, ‘Okay, I’m ready to retire and you know as much about this agency as I do’ so she recommended me to become the executive director, which I became in 1994 and then we built the agency up.” Located on Church Street in Baldwin, the agency had 80 clients in the low-end treatment scale, such as getting once a week individual counseling for gambling, mental health, and addiction on a sliding scale.

“In 2011 there were state budget cuts, really bad budget cuts and rather than cut from each (substance abuse) agency they decided to cut some of the smaller ones, but they took away 250,000 dollars from my treatment budget which left me with just prevention, Rotondo explained. “So, I wound up having to close down the agency because we couldn’t exist.” Staff had to be let go, interns sent elsewhere, and 85 clients transferred to other agencies, all Rotondo could do was “pray to god that they would go.”

However, persisting on, she struck a deal with then Baldwin Superintendent Dr. James D. Mapes. She’d use her prevention money to teach a ten-week curriculum called Too Good for Drugs, if he gave her an office, which was more like a closet, but it worked. Topics taught included goal setting, decision making, peer pressure, alcohol, marijuana, tobacco and more. Starting in 2012, she reached about 800 kids a year through the Baldwin school district and developed her pseudonym as “Professor Plum” for her distinct purple hair, outfits and accessories.

Over the years, Rotondo can’t remember just how many previous students have come up to her years after graduation and said something along the line of, “Professor Plum, I just want you to know you had me as a senior and I still haven’t done drugs.”

As part of the prevention grant and work plan given by the Office of Addiction Services and Supports, there needed to be involvement with a community coalition. So Rotondo simply started her own- the Community Coalition of Baldwin. “The purpose of that was to raise community awareness about substance abuse and to provide a positive alternative to kids, community members, who are having issues and also to bring the community together in a more cohesive way,” she said. Which the organization does each year with the Grand Baldwin Festival.

David Viana, who started the Baldwin Civic Association, was also in the coalition and came up with the idea of having a community festival to highlight local businesses. More than putting a spotlight on business, it’s also a way to, “open it up also to members, we have a lot of community members who have hobbies, that make jewelry, and they do paintings, and they make wreaths, so we give them a venue to start,” Rotondo said.

October 19, 2019 was the first of the Community Coalition of Baldwin Grand Baldwin Festival in collaboration with the Baldwin Public Library who helped sponsor the event. With over 70 vendors and 3,000 Baldwinites attending, it was marked as a huge success, with many remarking the feeling of pride in their community. The foot traffic centralized by the library’s location and downtown businesses provided a mutually beneficial day for those who came down to the festival.

Picking up more speed, the festival has grown in its infancy, and this year on Oct. 1, Rotondo promises it will be the biggest yet with over one hundred vendor spaces available. In addition to shopping, there will be food, entertainment and resources about drug and alcohol awareness. At the first festival, local jazz player and educator Matt Wilson preformed, and although he is not locked in for this year, there is a chance he will preform again at the

upcoming event.

In addition to her work in the coalitions, Rotondo teaches as an adjunct professor at Molloy College, teaching students about substance abuse. “I teach that substance abuse doesn’t necessarily mean pills, drugs, alcohol. Gambling is an addiction and I do a whole section on gambling,” Rotondo said.

What makes gambling different is the way it’s easier to hide but just as destructive, “It’s not like you can take a urine test and see that you’re a gambler, there is no physical sign. They are so adept at covering up their illness, that the family members aren’t aware of it until somebody comes banging on the door to read to evict them from the house.”

Those of all ages were invited to try on firefighting gear, operate a hose and learn about safety. For Stuparich, it all boils down to “being able to help the community.”

Another organization that was happy to take part was the Nassau County Police Benevolent Association, a labor union that supports police officers in everything from contract negotiations to improving their work environment. Trustee Jarred Barretti helped out at the event by handing out pizza and water to hungry and thirsty Baldwinites.

Sharmine Francis, a resident for the past year, came with her two daughters, Tessa and Stella, after seeing a post about the event on Facebook. It was almost like a “welcome to the neighborhood” event, Francis said, adding that she was excited to find out about the local resources that are available. “It’s awesome to connect with people that work where we live,” she said.

The Night Out is important for officers, because, as Barretti explained, “These are the people you’re representing — you’re responding to their house, you’re responding to their emergencies.

You have to know who you’re representing — their religions, cultures and stuff like that. It’s very important for the Police Department to know who they’re repre-

Assemblywoman Griffin thanked all the organizations that took part in the event. “National Night Out is a wonderful night across the country,” she said, “where we take time out to recognize all that our law enforcement, first responders, fire departments do for us and how they support the community by doing outreach and bringing communities together to keep us safe and protect us.”

Legislator Mulé also offered her thanks to the organizations, and to staffers in the two offices, who helped organize the event after it was moved from Baldwin Park to the high school. Responding to community suggestions that it be more centrally located, they worked with faculty at the high school to prepare a spot in the parking lot, which attracted hundreds of people throughout the day.

“This is the way it should be,” Inspector Joseph Guerra, of the NCPD’s 1st Precinct, told the crowd. In Nassau County, the safest county in America two years in a row, Guerra said, “we have the right combination, the right tonic, the right something, the right magic,” which wouldn’t be possible without the teamwork of “our legislators, our Police Department, our community, our Fire Department, all of you that are here. This is the way it’s supposed to be — all of us working together.”

er it be backpack giveaways or picnics.

All through the county, we’re always there We’re out here interacting with the community, interacting with kids to build a relationship between the youth of the neighborhood and the Police Department.”

One young person who is bridging law enforcement officers and teenagers is Linda Polizzi, who has been in the Explorers program, for civilian volunteers, for two years, but is still considering what to do when, she said, she grows up. The biggest takeaway so far for Polizzi is simply, “just listen” to those you’re responding to.

During the simulated training and scenarios, they take part in at the Nassau County Police Academy, she said, “If you mess up and say something wrong, it can affect pretty much everything.”

While the drills help teach teens the ways of law enforcement, they can also be applied to everyday life, Polizzi said.

“Consider this program, because even if you’re not going t o p u r s u e l aw enforcement you learn a lot of stuff that can save your life.”

Carl DeHaney, of Sanitation District No. 2 was giving out miniature recyclingbin piggy banks and coloring books to children. “My dad always said, you can tell how important something is when you take it away,” DeHaney said, illustrating the importance of the Sanitation Department. “If we weren’t collecting, can you even im a gi ne wh at i t county leGislator Department hose. would be like?”

Could toll lanes fix parkway’s ‘Bloody Alley’? kchin@liherald.com

Anyone driving the Southern State Parkway knows it’s not an easy highway to travel. There are a lot of accidents, but there’s simply too many vehicles.

But one fix offered by the Long Island Contractors Association and Assemblywoman Michaelle Solages might not get the happiest reception: They propose adding a toll lane for carpoolers.

The high occupancy toll — or HOT — lane under consideration wouldn’t remove an existing lane, but instead be added, according to an Aug. 4 outline of a proposed public-private partnership released

by Solages to renovate the Southern State Parkway.

The report found that such an additional lane could help alleviate traffic.

Focusing on the Southern State Parkway is nothing new for the contractors or Solages, as they have brought attention to the dangers of the 26-mile highway in the past.

One particular area of concern is between Exits for Malverne/West Hempstead and Huntington/Amityville, which have been referred to as “Bloody Alley” thanks to the high number of accidents occurring there.

And it’s not just a perception. Between 2012 and 2019, more than 15,750 accidents were reported on the Southern State, claiming 78 lives, according to the state transportation department. That’s more

Herald file photo

LoNg IsLaNd CoNtraCtors Association representatives joined Assemblywoman Michaelle Solages and other officials as part of a demonstration last year remembering those killed in accidents on the Southern State Parkway. than six accidents per day, killing someone, on average, once every month.

Joshua Hurwitz blames the parkway’s outdated design for its traffic and accident woes.

“Construction was complete in 1962, and despite some improvements since that time, the design of the parkway is largely unchanged since its first section opened to traffic in 1927,” he said, representing the American Road and Transportation Builders Association in Washington.

At the same time, the number of driv-

ers using the parkway has increased dramatically, with the population of Nassau and Suffolk counties nearly quadrupling since 1950. Southern State now carries an average of 200,000 vehicles a day through Nassau.

Solages’ report weighs the redeveloping the roadway through a public-private contract. It’s similar to projects like the Goethals Bridge replacement between Staten Island and New Jersey, redevelopment of LaGuardia Airport, and the Moynihan Train Hall conversion at Penn

VOTE TUESDAY

Station in Manhattan.

For the Sothern State, private partners could be contracted to design, construct, finance, operate and even maintaine the roadway. In return, that private group could be compensated through periodic government payments, or with toll revenue.

Solages has long advocated for renovations to the Southern State.

“I am proud to support the release of this study, especially because I believe the data presented will save lives,” the Assemblywoman said, in a release. “The traffic crush that occurs on the Southern State Parkway simply cannot be left as is. We must act for families across Long Island.

This report provides a future roadmap to successful change.”

Yet, Solages office clarified that while the Assemblywoman does not specifically endorse the plan she presented last week, she is open to any ideas that could help relieve the Southern State’s systemic issues.

Any toll lane will be dynamically priced, Hurwitz said, meaning costs would fluctuate depending on the time of day and other conditions.

“The user has the decision of whether they want to use that lane and pay the toll or use the general purpose lanes,” he said.

“This is sort of a preliminary step to bring attention back to the Southern State Parkway,” with the next step reaching out to drivers who would ultimately be affected by such change, and getting their input.

Steven Lindo helping empower the youth

By KARINA KOVAC kkovac@liherald.com

Girl Scouts of Nassau County (GSNC) recently elected Baldwin resident Steven Lindo as a Member at Large to its Board of Directors for the 2022-2024 term.

Lindo was among 16 other members elected during the organization’s 57th Annual Meeting at The Mansion at Glen Cove. He will serve the mission of providing leadership, innovation and constant support to the Girl Scouts of Nassau County Council.

“I am confident that this group of leaders will help cultivate the Girl Scout experience and help fulfill our mission to build girls of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better place,” said Randell Bynum, the chief executive officer of the Girl Scouts of Nassau County at the event.

Lindo is serving his second term as a board member with the motto of taking “a personal interest in every child’s success,” he said. With his past accomplishment of starting Boy Scout Pack 300 in 2003, which is an all black and Hispanic young men, he is now expecting to use the connections with the community he made during that time at his new role.

“As a board member what I’m hoping to do as member at large is to use my community relationships that I have from Copiague, Wyandanch, all the way up to Hampton Bays, Hempstead, Uniondale,

Roosevelt and these schools but also some of the community leaders that I deal with to continue to promote the need for support services for the girls.”

Working as leader of Troop 300 in the Theodore Roosevelt Council, Lindo has seen firsthand the transformative power of the Boy Scouts, which he hopes to bring into the Girl Scouts. One memory that stands out is a trip to Washington D.C. the troop went one, “I asked the boys one year where they’d like to go on a trip and they said they’ve never been to Washington D.C., so I packed them up in the minivan, 18 kids and drove them to Washington D.C. I can remember looking in the rearview mirror with the single mothers looking in their eyes and thinking ‘yeah Mr. Lindo is crazy to pack all our kids up.’

I sit back and reminisce a lot about it.”

Even the times that may seem tough are a fond memory for Lindo, when another time they went on a five-mile hike in 28-degree weather. “The kids would love it, you take these boys out of Hempstead, and they absolutely thrive, and questions get asked about the understanding of the trees, the connection they now start making with the water, the land, and the importance of protecting this important stuff. Knowing that were all connected in some way and then the importance of looking after each other, taking care of your fellow person.”

Skills like discipline, ethics, morals and trustworthiness is what Lindo car-

Although they weren’t in the Girl Scouts because of other extracurriculars,

having daughters that are now grown up, he understands the need to lift up and empower girls, especially when they are younger and still figuring the world out, “I clearly see all the challenges that they went through as black girls to having the awareness of what they can and cannot be and their surroundings.”

One of Lindo’s main goals is adding more prestige to the Girl Scouts as the girls get older and find themselves in leadership roles. “I’d love to see folks recognizing these girls that were Girl Scouts and letting them you know, when they’re in those positions, say ‘hey, I was a Girl Scout, it doesn’t matter if I didn’t make Eagle, or even if I didn’t get my Gold Award, I was a Girl Scout.’”

Lindo is a Senior Level Director & Technology Head for the Coding & Regulatory Business Unit at Wolters Kluwer.

And has over 30 years of industry experience and has a passion for business and technology. Lindo holds a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree from Hofstra University and earned his doctorate at Pace University, Seidenberg School of Computer Science.

He currently teaches at Hofstra in the School of Engineering, Department of Computer Science and is also the cofounder and President of SpringBoard Incubators, Inc., a nonprofit organization in Hempstead whose main mission is to bridge the digital divide and knowledge divide in STEM.

the david S. Mack Center for Training and Intelligence in Uniondale, which serves as a training center for Nassau County Police.

Harbor murderer sentenced Continued from front page ing the Crips and the 5-9 Brims set of the Bloods, in Nassau County and Brooklyn, the release said. To maintain his leadership position in the gang and to keep rival gangs in fear, Michel engaged in extreme violence against anyone suspected of disloyalty or being disrespectful of his gang.

According to court filings and statements Michel made at his plea, he admitted his role in the murder of Richard, a man he wrongly suspected of helping the Crips in the 2010 murder of a member of their gang.

Cruz and Michel, together with fellow gang members, located Richard, obtained a firearm, and followed him to his car in Baldwin Harbor. Cruz, who was Michel’s top lieutenant, got out of another car, walked up to Richard’s car and fired about 15 shots, killing Richard and wounding his passenger.

Michel also admitted to the Oct. 13,

2011, gunpoint kidnapping and assault of someone he believed was a disloyal gang member and another man in Hempstead.

Further, Michel admitted pulling the trigger in the Sept. 9, 2016, attempted murder of a fellow Bloods gang member whom Michel suspected of disloyalty, in which the victim was lured from Brooklyn to Uniondale, thinking it was a marijuana deal. Michel shot the man in the back of the neck and left him to die, but the man later survived his wounds.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Neighborhoods, a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and make neighborhoods safer. As part of the program, U.S. attorneys’ offices work in partnership with federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement and their local communities to develop locally based strategies to reduce violent crime.

spects long associated with Native American culture — medicine wheels, wampum, talking sticks and so forth — are unfamiliar yet fascinating. Members of Long Island’s Shinnecock Nation are introducing families to their heritage and traditions throughout the summer at Long Island Children’s Museum’s dynamic exhibit “Toyuskanash: Bridges,” which runs through Labor Day. Four indigenous artists are in residency all summer long to meet, discuss and make art with museum visitors. Artist workshops involve families in When: exploring both Daily, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., the creative through Sunday, Sept. 4 process and the individual Where: medium used.

Long Island Children’s Art Museum, Museum Row, exhibitions, Garden City; LICM.org or by their (516) 224-5800 nature, tell a story — from the selection of pieces, how they are grouped and placed, and of course, which artists are on view. In this installation, artists selected others to join them to tell a collaborative story. The four artists involved represent different generations and use different media, but share a culture and commitment to celebrating traditions in a contemporary context.

“The concept of ‘Bridges’ represented in the title is a metaphor for bringing people together over difficult or impossible terrain,” says fine art photographer Jeremy Dennis, who notes “Toyuskanash is the Algonquian word for “bridges.“

He co-curated the exhibit with his mother, painter and tradition-bearer Denise Silva-Dennis, collaborating with museum exhibits director Erik Schurink and museum associate education director Jeanmarie Walsh Mansfield.

“In the case of Indigenous people and artists, we often have to bridge gaps in empathy, understanding and knowledge.”

The motherson Dennis team is joined by beadwork appliqué and ribbon work artist Tohanash Tarrant and painter David Bunn Martine.

They recently completed a collaborative art piece focused on the theme of the medicine wheel, a powerful symbol of interconnectivity.

Museum-goers had an opportunity to add to the collaborative piece, which is now on display in the art-making space for the remainder of the exhibit.

“In many Native American communities, it is believed that family members who pass away depart westward. In this medicine wheel, I used black-and-white photos of Shinnecock ancestors in a collage style,” Dennis explains.

“I chose the black southerly section of the wheel to depict where the winged-ones migrate to,” Silva-Denis added. “The figure has winter gear on as they are left behind in the northern blanket-of-snow section. Yet there is a promise of spring with the strawberry-heart, white flowers promising, to great relief, spring.”

Families are immediately introduced to the creators through images of each artist and

highlighted pieces of their work as soon as they enter the museum. Dennis’ interactive map — showcasing Long Island’s culturally significant Native America — enables visitors to gain an understanding of place as they explore various communities.

The children museum’s KaleidoZone gallery displays the works of all four artists, while another gallery is the setting for the various artist-led workshops and an open area for artmaking.

This space features works by each artist highlighting their creative approach, along with a storytelling area that presents the legend of “Sky Woman,” the Indigenous creation story.

My brother’s questioning HERALD our renovation To place an ad call 516-569-4000 press 5 • To place an ad call 516-569-4000 press 5 Q. My brother worked in construction but doesn’t now. He pointed out some potential problems with our renovation, and I wonder if they’re serious or not. One, there is only one 2 x 4 at the bottom of the wall studs, not two, which makes it more difficult to attach the tall baseboard we chose. Another is that most of the wall studs are 24 inches apart instead of 16, and bowed, not straight, and wallboard screws might miss the wood. My brother says this is a problem. Do you agree?

Ask The Architect

A. Your brother made some very, um, constructive comments, some that may raise real concerns, and others that are more opinions. First, using a double “base plate,” the 2 x 4s at the bottom of the wall framing, is just more expensive and is rarely done. The only reason to do it would be to make it easier to randomly attach the base trim boards, onte eeper which just as easily attach with finish nails at 16 inches on center.

A combination of the finish nails and a construction adhesive saves lumber. Placing the wall studs at 24 inches on center is supposed to save money by reducing the number of wall studs needed, which, in this time of drastically increased material costs, might seem like a better idea. It actually costs more, though, because half-inch-thick wallboard will be flimsier to span the extra 8 inches, and the next thickness, 5/8-inch, offsets the cost savings of the wall studs, so you get a slightly weaker structure wall for the same or higher cost.

I recently did an inspection and found another common problem: There were wall studs missing at corners and ceiling joists missing at wall and ceiling junctions. Without these “nailers,” there’s no place to screw-attach the gypsum wallboard, which can’t just be left to flop in a corner. On the worksite, everyone has a complaint about something, it seems, and the drywall subcontractors want good locations to easily attach, such as the nailers and straight wall studs.

I have seen many good carpenters, over the years, inspect the lumber as it’s delivered, holding the planks and studs so that they can stare down the length of the wood and check the straightness, which is generally achieved by letting the freshly cut lumber either kiln-dry or air-dry for many weeks before shipment. Unfortunately, the mills were behind when construction demand went up after the coronavirus crisis, so lumber is “greener” when it ships, filled with much more moisture and able to bow and warp more. This will be a problem, and I expect more calls from people who will be misguided away from this real cause when there are cracks in the walls. The blame will be placed on structural design, a fallacy, to deflect from the movement of wood with greater moisture content as it acclimates to a house when the heat gets turned on over the following winter. You may see this, too. Good luck!

opinions

ne of my all-time favorite books was written by the late President John F. Kennedy in 1956, four years before he became president. The book, “Profiles in Courage,” comprised short biographies of eight members of the U.S. Senate who defied their party or their constituents by taking a stand they believed was important on an issue of the day. There are few people in today’s world who have been willing to face the consequences for following their conscience, but those few are worth notJERRY ing.

At the top of the KREMER list are two Republican members of the House of Representatives. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger have had the guts and the strength to oppose a president and take a vital role in the current hearings on the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Cheney has become a powerful voice in helping the public understand the gravity of what our nation would face if Donald Trump were to again seek public office. She has

L

been fearless and courageous in discussing the significance of the witness testimony, and by using simple terms she has touched a raw public nerve.

Kinzinger has served in the House since 2010. His seat in Congress has been a safe one, and he had no reason to jump ship and take on Trump. Kinzinger became the first Republican to challenge Trump’s claim of voter fraud and attempts to overturn the 2020 election. He not only supported Trump’s impeachment, but also voted for the creation of the Jan. 6 committee. He has chosen to leave office at the end of the year.

Next in line for accolades are the eight other Republican House members who voted for Trump’s impeachment. It takes courage to defy your party and your voters to do the right thing, but they stood up for their beliefs, and most of them are now paying a price. Of the 10, including Cheney and Kinzinger, four are retiring, one lost a primary, one survived a primary and must face voters again in November, and Cheney faces a primary next week.

It isn’t often that the action of a large group of people qualifies as an act of

L

courage, but kudos go to the voters of Kansas, who defied many of their friends and neighbors to stand up for a woman’s right to make a personal choice on whether to have an abortion. Kansas is one of the reddest states in the country, yet somehow, while the opinion polls showed anti-abortion proponents winning, I didn’t believe them. Over the past 10-plus years, lots of opinion polls on political issues and candidates have been wrong, and this vote was a closely guarded voter secret.

The subject of abortion brings to mind one of the few instances in my career in Albany when a member willingly sacrificed his seat, and more, to cast a “yes” vote for legalized abortion. In April 1970, Assemblyman George Michaels, a Democrat from upstate Auburn, sat in the chamber during a highly emotional debate on abortion. Michaels represented a predominantly Catholic district, and his decision to vote to approve the abortion law cost him his seat and his law partnership, along with bitter community blowback.

My last nominated group that has shown the courage of its convictions is

iz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger top my congressional list of profiles in courage.

the parents of the shooting victims at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. These parents will forever suffer over the loss of their children, and they didn’t deserve to become the victims of a conspiracy campaign launched by conservative radio talk show host Alex Jones.

Jones claimed the Sandy Hook massacre was a hoax and tormented the parents for years, but they refused to accept the taunting. Their defamation lawsuit against Jones has led a jury to award them huge damages.

Courage in today’s world is a rare commodity. Mark Twain defined it as “resistance to fear, mastery of fear — not absence of fear.” Muhammad Ali stated, “He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.” My own definition is, if you haven’t been willing to defy the odds and speak out against the forces of evil, you have missed an opportunity, and that makes you a lesser person.

Jerry Kremer was a state assemblyman for 23 years, and chaired the Assembly’s Ways and Means Committee for 12 years. He now heads Empire Government Strategies, a business development and legislative strategy firm. Comments about this column?

Florida Gov. DeSantis: teachers need to be educated

ast week, the Florida Department of Education announced that military veterans, as well as their spouses, would receive a five-yearvoucher that allows them to teach in the classroom despite not receiving a degree to do so. It’s a move tied to the $8.6 million the state announced would be used to expand career and workforce training opportunities for military veterans and their spouses.

— USA Today Gov. Ron DeSantis’s plan to allow U.S. veterans to teach in Florida RAnDi classrooms is a terrific concept — KREiss if and when the veterans earn bachelor’s degrees and complete teacher training programs.

The governor’s initiative, announced last week, would open the classroom door to any veteran who has served four or more years in the military, left the service with an honorable discharge and agrees to working with a mentor.

The proposal would allow veterans to teach for five years without a bachelor’s degree, without classroom experience or a teaching license and without passing any kind of certification program.

Although Florida is facing a dire teacher shortage, the governor’s plan is disrespectful to both students and the veterans.

Veterans deserve all we can provide: emotional support, good pay, programs to help them re-enter civilian life and the same excellent standard of medical care that our office-holders enjoy.

If veterans want to become teachers, then let’s provide the money and the best teachers to prepare them to enter the classroom. To throw them in cold is irresponsible and potentially damaging to both veterans and students.

I’m a teacher, and have been a teacher in some way or another since 1968. I taught junior high school and high school English. I still have the notebooks from NYU, filled with teaching techniques and lesson plans and suggestions for negotiating the emotional minefield that is a junior high school classroom.

I’ve been retired for many years, but I still teach. I lead book groups, and I teach my grandkids. It’s a kind of instinctive way to connect, a way to be in the world.

You walk on a beach and you see some critters, and you talk to the kids about how horseshoe crabs are prehistoric and how they help keep our tidal waters clean.

s

You prepare a meal, and teach the kids about keeping conditions healthy and hygienic around food.

I know there will be some natural-born teachers among the veterans who move into Florida classrooms.

That will be a bonus for the kids. But loving teaching and loving children are not enough.

I wouldn’t want to see doctors replaced by veterans who really love medicine but have no medical training. Same for pilots.

Ship captains. Some jobs demand critical thinking skills and rigorous training for which there is no shortcut. To suggest that anyone without teacher training can step into a classroom, maintain classroom decorum, teach the curriculum, work effectively with colleagues and truly educate our children is dismissive of teacher education. I know our vets have faced daunting responsibilities and fearsome challenges in their work. But standing in front of a classroom presents entirely different challenges, and requires a body of learning and a process of training that does not allow for shortcuts.

Our children deserve to be taught by individuals who have been fully educated themselves. Even the most motivated,

tanding in front of a classroom is a daunting challenge, even for veterans.

child-loving wannabe teacher needs to study how to teach third-graders mathematics, and how to get nonreaders to read, and how to settle classroom disputes, and how to get the truant back to school, and how to plan lessons for a month ahead, and how to teach a classroom of 30 kids who are all on different reading levels.

According to New York state, to become a teacher, a candidate must meet the requirements stipulated by the Office of Teaching Initiatives.

Like most states, New York requires that all teachers hold a bachelor’s degree, complete a state teacher certification program, and pass the required content examinations. Upon meeting the requirements for certification, an applicant may be issued an initial certificate, which is valid for five years. This entry-level certificate leads to a professional certificate, which is an advanced-level license that is continuously valid, assuming the teacher completes the appropriate number of professional development hours every five years.

I spend part of my year in Florida, and I am concerned for the upcoming generation of Floridians. One teacher I know said of DeSantis’s plan, “He likes his constituents to be uneducated because critical thinkers would vote him out.”

Protect democracy: Become an election protector

d

uring the traditional dog days of summer, many people are more apt to relax on vacation than to think about whom they plan to vote for in the upcoming elections, never mind how they can help ensure voters’ rights at the polling place.

What was custom just a few years ago, however, has been tossed on the scrap heap, as early voting and the expanded use of absentee ballots have shifted voting habits.

New census data led to a redrawing of political districts, upending the 2022 election season.

In June, which has become the primary month in New York state in the past few years, there were gubernatorial and Assembly primaries. But because there was a brouhaha over how the congressional and state senatorial districts were drawn, the legal wrangling pushed those primaries to Aug. 23.

With those votes approaching and the general election in November, it’s not just voting that is important, but protecting the right to vote as well.

In this country, “one person, one vote” truly means that when a ballot is filled out, that vote will count. Whether it’s an election with a razor-thin margin between candidates or an overwhelming victory, we take for granted that everyone’s vote counted.

From local elections such as the 2021 race for Nassau County executive — in which Bruce Blakeman’s margin of victory over Laura Curran was 2,150 votes —

letters Kudos to Hinman for his shipwreck research To the Editor: I liked Executive Editor Michael Hinman’s column, “Two heroes, and one captain who should’ve been ashamed,” last week. I’ve been the historian of the Village of Lynbrook for over 30 years, and am the author of “Water & Ice: The Tragic Wrecks of the Bristol and the Mexico on the South Shore of Long Island.” (The book is available on Amazon.) I have also had dozens of local history articles published in the Herald over the years, including several related to the two wrecks, and to the annual ceremony that I help organize at the monument, along with the Ancient Order of Hibernians of Nassau County and the Historical Society of East Rockaway and Lynbrook.

Bush’s victory over Al Gore in the presidential election 21 years earlier that was decided by 537 votes in Florida, every vote is consequential. And protecting that vote is essential.

In order to safeguard the act of voting, we need election protectors. What are they? According to the Election Protection coalition organized by the political watchdog group Common Cause, an election protector is a trained, nonpartisan onsite volunteer who can explain voting rules and help troubleshoot issues with voting. Election Protection is an effort to overcome what Common Cause describes as the “outdated infrastructure, rampant misinformation and needless obstacles to the ballot box.”

Common Cause dates back to the Nixon administration, when it was founded by John Gardner, a Republican cabinet member in President Lyndon B. John-

son’s administration. The initial push of Common Cause was to end the Vietnam War and lower the voting age in the U.S. from 21 to 18.

Today, the nationwide coalition aims to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to vote, and that that vote counts. There are more than 300 local, state and national Election Protection partners, according to Common Cause.

Whoa, you may think. Is this just another way for one political party to gain an advantage over the other? No. Signing on and learning how to be an election protector simply means you play a vital role in the most critical cog that makes this nation’s democracy work: voting.

No matter which political party you are affiliated with, and no matter which political philosophy you are aligned with, you, as a citizen of this country, have the civic responsibility to take part in its government.

When you vote in an election, you exercise your right to give voice to your opinions. An election protector helps safeguard that right, which in turn safeguards our democracy.

“The most important political office is that of the private citizen,” Louis Brandeis wrote over a century ago, early in a legal career that eventually took him to the U.S. Supreme Court.

By becoming an election protector, you will serve a dual purpose: protecting the right of people to vote, while breathing life into Brandeis’s words.

assau County’s ongoing mission to address the opioid addiction crisis is one of the most important and most heart-wrenching issues I contend with as a mother and as the ranking member of the County Legislature’s Health & Social Services Committee. This merciless and unforgiving scourge has touched nearly all of our lives.

As the county sits on tens of millions of settlement dollars from the nation’s largest opioid drug manufacturers and distributors, Suffolk County has DELIA already plans DeRIggI-WHITTON announced for its share — a blueprint that was devised through the work of a transparent, bipartisan and collaborative advisory panel. To date, Nassau County, in contrast, has offered little more than conceptual plans for using our share.

It is time to follow Suffolk County’s

lead, so that these funds can get into the hands of agencies and entities on the front lines of our response to the addiction crisis.

On July 26, Suffolk County announced that it would dedicate settlement funds received from opioid distributors AmerisourceBergen Corp., Cardinal Health Inc. and McKesson Corporation to finance grants for drug treatment providers, community groups and county agencies for programs.

These actions were based on guidance from the Suffolk County Addiction Prevention and Support Advisory Panel, a body consisting of legislators, public health experts, recovery advocates and community leaders that was convened by County Executive Steve Bellone.

The advisory panel also published a report describing how future funds would be spent.

Meanwhile, in Nassau, we still lack a clear vision from County Executive Bruce Blakeman. According to annual reports from the county comptroller’s office and

s

uffolk County has been busy earmarking the money, but not Nassau.

LETTERs story of the two wrecks is by far the most accurate of any I have seen — and I have seen many, including in Newsday. Aside from his mention of Ruth Bader’s article, which appeared on the Web after my book was published, Hinman seems to have based his story on sources identical to those I used (and cited) in my book. And it took me almost 10 years to find them.

With such deep research, it is truly remarkable that he accomplished this despite never having come across either my book or my articles in the Herald.

Those same organizations that hold the annual ceremony and I have applied to the Town of Hempstead for Landmark and Preservation status for the monument and the small remaining open space of the Mariners Burying Ground (the very space Ruth Bader mentioned). The cemetery operators are fighting our application. It is a compelling struggle, well worth covering in the Herald.

What does Kremer see in Biden?

To the Editor: I was very surprised at the paragraphs about President Biden in Jerry Kremer’s column “The country’s chief executive has the most thankless job” (July 28-Aug. 3). Kremer’s statements about President Biden are very confusing. He describes

the independent Office of Legislative Budget Review, the county has received $55.9 million in settlement funds, $15 million of which must be directed toward opioid addiction recovery, prevention and education. None of these funds had been spent as of last month.

Since Blakeman told Newsday on April 19 that he would “meet with Barry Wilansky, his new director of substance abuse policy who has more than 30 years of experience in rehabilitation services, to identify the best way to spend the money,” Blakeman’s administration has not articulated a clearly defined strategy. To my knowledge, the administration has not engaged legislators or community stakeholders on the best uses for these funds, either.

That is especially unfortunate when you consider how those resources could amplify the benefits of successful programs that are already operating, and those that could come soon. Nassau’s highly successful Operation: Natalie, which floods opioid “hot spots” in the

him as “one of the best foreign relations presidents,” yet Biden pulled all U.S. troops from Afghanistan in one of the worst military decisions ever.

He’s taken the lead on the Ukraine War? When it comes to Ukraine, I can’t trust any decision by Biden. His son and his brother and probably himself have earned millions of dollars from this country, and are now under investigation. His decisions are compromised, at the very least, and he is spending money in Ukraine that we do not have.

Biden recommitted the U.S. to the NATO alliance and returned us to the Paris Climate Agreement.

This accord curbs the U.S. carbon footprint but allows China and India to use fossil fuels to their heart’s desire. Very unfair to the U.S. Domestically, the headaches our country now has, which Kremer claims landed on Biden’s desk and are not his fault, are all of his making. A major factor causing inflation is the closure of our energy-producing pipelines and canceled energy leases, jacking up the prices of oil, gas, transportation, food, you name it.

Our southern border? Millions of illegal aliens are now trying to enter the U.S., mostly unvaccinated and untested for Covid-19 and inadequately vetted. Now involved in human trafficking, the drug cartels are flourishing.

Racism? Biden is beholden to identity politics. He boasted about his Black and female running mate. Look where that got us. Crime? Violent crime is soaring in most major cities under his reign.

county with enforcement, education, community outreach and treatment resources, is back up and running at full force after the pandemic. Legislation that would provide Narcan to nightlife establishments statewide is on Gov. Kathy Hochul’s desk. In Nassau, my minority caucus colleagues and I are pushing for fentanyl testing strips to be added to the Narcan kits the county distributed as part of an effort to reduce the number of overdose deaths caused by fentanyl-laced drugs.

A collaborative and community-powered strategic plan for the use of Nassau County’s settlement funds would be another giant step forward in our mission to amplify and deliver the treatment, education and prevention services that will save lives and help residents free themselves from the grip of addiction. For the sake of all the people that we have lost and the families that continue to grapple with the horrors of this disease, we must not miss this opportunity.

Think they’d mind if we just sat in there and cooled off? — Norman Levy Preserve, Merrick

Bad breaks? Biden’s job is to lead. He has a majority in Congress and he still can’t get things done. The media? They got him elected by hiding his son’s laptop story and allowing him to run for office from his basement. And now they’re picking on him? Wow. People like Kremer, with the platform

he has, don’t hold Biden accountable. He made decisions, and he needs to own them. He is the president of the greatest country in the world, and needs to put on the big-boy pants and act like it.
