Local teen is international science competition finalist By ANDREW GARCIA agarcia@liherald.com

Tyler Bissoondial, a rising junior at John F. Kennedy High School in Bellmore, is a finalist in an international science competition that challenges students to find practical solutions to some of the world’s most vexing environmental problems. It is the 2021 Spellman Clean Tech Competition, hosted by the Center for Science, Teaching and

Learning, based in Rockville Centre. This year’s challenge was “Preserving Planet Earth.” Hundreds of competitors were winnowed down to 60 semifinalists, 20 of whom entered the final stage of the competition. Finalists will compete for a share of a $60,000 prize. While many of the competitors are members of teams from around the world, some go solo — about a quarter, estimated Dr. Ray Ann Havasy, CSTL executive

director — including Bissoondial, 15, who completed his project on his own. In total, it spanned more than three years of handson research. In his backyard, Bissoondial planted dozens of radishes to find ones that could grow in h i g h - s a l t c o n d i t i o n s.

40 YEARS AGO, Long Island lost one of our neighbors who, Newsday called, “one of the most important Long Islanders of the 20th Century”. Through his music, stories, live performances and social activism, HARRY CHAPIN was credited with influencing the song, “We Are the World.” Some have stated that Harry Chapin also inspired USA for Africa and Live Aid. We also know that he founded two organizations, WHY Hunger and Long Island Cares, Inc., along with the 1977 Presidential Commission on Hunger under former President Jimmy Carter. On July 16, 1981 while thousands of his fans gathered in Eisenhower Park in East Meadow for one of his many free concerts to raise awareness of hunger, Harry Chapin died in an automobile accident on the Long Island Expressway. Forty years later, Harry Chapin’s legacy continues through the work of our organization. For forty years, Harry’s fans continue to contribute to our work in many ways. His words about ending hunger still resonate with our staff, volunteers, donors and fellow musicians like Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel,Dee Snyder and Darryl ‘Run DMC’ McDaniels who have all supported Long Island Cares, Inc.-The Harry Chapin Regional Food Bank. Although we will never know just how successful Harry would have been if he were still alive, we do know that he would be very proud of the work that Long Island Cares IF YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW NEEDS ASSISTANCE, continues to do to support our PLEASE CALL US AT 631.582.FOOD (3663) neighbors in need and to carry on his legacy.

Community healing hike takes place in Merrick

BELLMORE HERALD — July 15, 2021

By JORDAN VALLONE jvallone@liherald.com

On July 10, Long Island residents gathered at the Norman J. Levy Park and Preserve in Merrick for a “healing hike,” a monthly hike that is organized by the Long Island Progressive Coalition. Established in 1979, with headquarters in Massapequa, the coalition is a community-based organization that fights for structural change at the local, state and national levels, according to their website, lipc.org. Danny Hopkins, the coalition’s communications director, said that the group has been involved in many campaigns since its founding, including tackling climate change and increasing minimum wage. They are currently working on several campaigns, including state legislation changes and public power, which is an initiative that supports a fully, publiclyowned power authority on Long Island. The coalition has 4 staff members, a board and many volunteer members, according to Hopkins. Nia Adams, the coalition’s community organizer, works with volunteers and community members on a variety of campaigns, and also helps organize events such as the healing hikes. “We started the hikes earlier this year as a way to reconnect with longstanding members and new members over the course of the pandemic,” said Adams. “We were trying to find safe ways that we could congregate. We felt that this was the easiest solution to get to know each other again.” Each month, the coalition selects a location on Long Island to organize a hike. Aside from locations that the staff knows of, they also take suggestions from members or hikers. The Norman J. Levy Park and Preserve — sometimes called the Merrick Preserve or “Merrick Mountain” — was selected for the month of July. It’s a relatively large preserve that was created on top of an old landfill. The preserve is known for its large hill that offers a 360-degree view of Merrick and sights to New York City and the barrier islands. Visitors can also see goats, which are released at night for natural weed control. During the day, the goats are kept at the entrance of the preserve in a pen. The hike attracted about a dozen people, which is the monthly standard, and hikers ventured out onto docks at the preserve for views of the bay and Jones Beach, and climbed to the top of the so-called mountain to enjoy the surrounding scenery. “This has been a very popular event that we’ve coordinated,” Adams said. “It attracts both new people and repeat hikers.” The coalition plans to continue organizing the healing hikes, with possible locations for August most likely in Suffolk County. They are active on social media, and their Facebook page, Long Island Progressive Coalition, is the best place to stay up to date and see where their next hike will take place. “Folks are now able to go out and do more things,” Hopkins said. “The hikes are a great way to build community.”

Trees, power lines down in North Bellmore By JORDAN VALLONE jvallone@liherald.com

On Monday July 12, three trees fell down around 3:30 p.m. on Albemarle Avenue in North Bellmore, causing significant damage to homes and utility polls. The Bellmore Fire Department, Nassau County Police Department, and PSEG responded. According to the NCPD, one of the trees fell in the direction of the Long Island Railroad train tracks, but did not cause service problems. The other two trees fell towards the street. This was not a weather related incident.

The trees fell towards the street and damaged power lines and homes. They caused a gas leak in one of the houses. Live wires left significant burn marks on properties. Aside from causing physical damage, the trees also caused a temporary power outage. About 425 homes were affected, and there were outages as far south as Merrick Road. By around 6:30 p.m., power had been restored to those effected. At 6:30 pm., the Bellmore Fire Department left the scene. The NCPD said that it will take about three days to clean up the remaining damage.

MEMBERs of thE Merrick Fire Department gathered on Saturday to dedicate their new Seagrave trucks.

Merrick F.D. dedicates two new trucks By ANDREW GARCIA agarcia@liherald.com

The Merrick Fire Department’s equipment just got a major upgrade on Saturday, July 10. At Merrick Hook and Ladder Company No. 1, located on Oakwood Avenue, department members dedicated two new trucks manufactured by Seagrave: one 95-foot lift and one 100foot “straight stick” ladder truck. The former can be used by many firefighters at a time to gain access to roof fires and other access points, while the latter will be used for house fires, motor vehicle accidents, hazardous material situations and water rescues. The event on Saturday was a large celebration, with servicemembers past and present gathering along with family and friends. Dozens were in attendance, facing the two massive trucks that flanked the sides of the building’s driveway. “It’s a proud moment for our members,” said Matthew Neary, captain of Merrick Truck Company No. 1. Neary answered the often-asked question as to why the Merrick fire trucks are white instead of red. “The answer is 128 years old,” he said. The company’s first hand-drawn ladder wagon was built in 1893, when white paint was used as a cost-saving measure due to its lack of pigment. That wagon is on display at the Nassau County Fire Museum in Uniondale. The Native American silhouette on the side also pays homage to the Merokee tribe who flourished in local lands in the 1600s. “The new trucks are a tangible representation of our new chapter,” Neary said. “Over the last several years, we’ve increased our membership considerably. . . Their dedicated service to their community runs deep.” Neary’s father, Matthew G. Neary, served as captain of the department when their 1996 ladder truck was dedicated, which is now being replaced. “I feel very humble and proud to be captain of the company as we dedicate 6411,” Neary said. “To all the men and women in this department — thank you for everything you do,” said Don Clavin, supervisor of the Town of Hempstead, which funds and provides the depart-

ment’s equipment. “We cannot thank you enough.” The title of hero “should be reserved for the very few,” said Councilman Chris Carini, “people like the men and women who are here today that place themselves in harm’s way to benefit strangers.” “The fact that at a moment’s notice you’re willing to get up from your dining room tables; you get out of bed in the middle of the night; willing to leave your job during the day,” said Nassau County Legislator Steve Rhoads, “that is such a tremendous sacrifice.” The Rev. Frank Caldwell and the Rev. Zachary Callahan of Curé of Ars in Merrick led a prayer before being inducted as honorary members into the Merrick Fire Department. “We remember the sacrifice that was made with our previous trucks and thank each member that has stepped onto the rig to serve the community we live in,” Neary said.

problem. “He learned that at a very early age — find something that people can relate to and that is very practical,” Terrence said. Finding a practical solution also extends to Bissoondial’s other research project, which he is tackling as part of the Advanced Science Research class at Kennedy. Many ASR students are chosen as semifinalists and finalists for the annual Regeneron Science Talent Search competition. Bissoondial is researching liver disease, specifically non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, or NASH. When diagnosing liver diseases, a biopsy of the liver is taken. Bissoondial’s research is assessing whether microRNA molecules found in the liver can be used for diagnostic testing, which could circumvent the need for an intrusive biopsy.

Instead of a sixth grade dance, Shore Road School in Bellmore held a Beach Bash for its graduates.

Shore Road sixth graders enjoy Beach Bash Shore Road School sixth graders in the Bellmore School District cut loose for a day of fun in the sun during their Beach Bash, held on school grounds on June 16. Sponsored by the PTA and sixth grade committee, the Beach Bash was held in lieu of the traditional dance this year. Students had a full day of fun with peers before moving on to middle school this fall. A virtual game show prior to the bash kicked off the celebration, followed by dancing under the tiki hut with Hart to Hart Entertainment, taking photos with friends in the photo booth, participating in lawn games, making tie-dye T-shirts, coloring shells and just having good conversations with friends. The afternoon also saw the Kona Ice truck offer a cool down with a favorite treat. The Beach Bash will surely be a day the students will remember as they enter the secondary phase of their education.

Former Calhoun coach Joe Corea remembered teacher and coach, estimated that Corea had impacted more than 10,000 students. “I’d say the vast majority of them would probably speak very highly of him,” Schiller said. “He motivated them — basically inspired them.” When people were around Corea, they felt respected and loved, Schiller added. “Not only did you want to succeed for yourself,” he said, “but you wanted to succeed for him.” Schiller, who had been friends with Corea since 1969, also spoke highly of his modesty. According to Schiller and Seinfeld, Corea never counted his wins, because to him the numbers didn’t matter. “He wasn’t the guy in the front of the room,” Seinfeld said. “He didn’t want the spotlight.” “He had the right to brag,” Schiller said, “but he never did. He was very modest with all his accomplishments.” To Corea, it was always about the players, a point he liked to emphasize. Speak-

ing on the success of his team in 2010, he told the Herald, “We’ve had a lot of great kids at Calhoun . . . and a lot more talent” in recent years. “When he won games, it was because of his team,” Schiller said. “When he lost games, it was because of him. It was never anyone’s fault.” Corea’s friends also spoke of his energy, which remained high throughout his career. “In my first year as principal, I went out over the summer to watch the football practice and meet some of the students,” Seinfeld recounted. “Joe was out there running and backpedaling with the team.” “He had an incredible amount of energy,” Schiller agreed. “Once he was assigned to be athletic director, he had to still teach five full classes.” “I don’t know if there’s anyone who has more games coached than Joe in Nassau County,” Seinfeld said. “Nobody could do everything that Joe did as well as he could.” When Corea retired from teaching fulltime at Calhoun, he continued to teach one class a day in the district’s alternative program. “As a teacher, he was just outstanding,” Schiller said. Above all, Corea was about character, Seinfeld said. “He’d give you his seat, he’d hold the door for you, he’d drive you home if you had a flat,” Seinfeld recounted. “His ability to right the wrongs of others is legendary.” Corea retired from coaching in 2014,

and the following year, the Calhoun baseball field was renamed in his honor. Aside from accumulating close to 700 wins, Corea led the team to two Long Island championships and three Nassau championships. Corea’s daughter Jeannie Corea, of Massapequa Park, said her father’s philosophy as a coach was to play fair, win graciously and lose with integrity. “He was a big believer and support system for all his players,” Jeannie said. A dedicated coach, teacher and father, according to Jeannie, it was this trifecta that made him stand out. “He loved what he did,” she said. “All the great things we’ve heard about him after his passing, we heard from others during his life. My sister Kelly and I are very proud daughters. We will live in his example.” In addition to Jeannie, Corea is survived by his daughter Kelly Griffin and two grandchildren, Riley and Brady. Corea was predeceased by his wife, Mary Jeanne, who died in September 2015. He was buried at St. Charles Cemetery in East Farmingdale on June 5. “He was an extraordinary educator, incredible coach and wonderful person,” Hollings said of Corea. “He brought the best out of people because people wanted to bring the best for him. When people think of Joe Corea, they will say, ‘I want to be just like him.’”

admiration for schoolteachers when it comes to the patience they must have in dealing with all the different personalities they must reach and try to shape into responsible members of our communities. Not only do people learn differently, they also communicate differently, and choose what to communicate based on varyonte eeper ing degrees of what’s in it for them. I sometimes wonder if it was a good thing that my parents instilled that “honesty is the best policy” because of the number of people who didn’t want to hear the truth, tell the truth or communicate the truth. Many have stated to me in their daily business dealings that what they don’t know won’t hurt them, but eventually it actually can hurt them. I started writing this column after all the times I witnessed people who were being misled or out-andout “burned” as consumers. Sadly, the truth hurts, and I’ve also often tried to warn people that they probably won’t get away with things they thought they could sneak by officials. Some people are trusting, but many are willing to take their chances, and they move on to work with others willing to happily misguide them. As I have done many times in my career, I drive by projects where I told the owners they wouldn’t get all that they wanted, and as expected, the built project is missing the building parts that never would have passed. One client, for example, insisted they owned the waterway behind their home and could build over it. The section of the home that would have protruded out over the waterway was never built when the rest of the home was constructed. It was no surprise, just a disappointment, because they didn’t want to hear the truth, and whoever did the planning led them down a garden path to a dead end. When this happened, I wonder if they had a lot of aggravation, or simply accepted the truth and moved on. Now you will need to select someone you can trust to warn you of pitfalls, verify by calling code officials, and possibly do things in phases that may cost more than doing it all together. Good luck!

Q. We just bought a house, and this has been a real test of our marriage. We have so many things to do, and both of us are hoping to keep our jobs. Money we had planned to use for the work may have to be put toward food instead. We’re very nervous, and wonder whether a chunk of money is going to have to go for permits we were told we wouldn’t need. Now we find out that even our patio repair, our new central air conditioning unit and insulating the attic need a permit. We’re wondering who to trust. Nobody involved in the house sale or who gave us estimates told us about this. Is this common? Are we just unlucky?

to todAy’s puzzle

opINIoNS

ntil recently, I had never thought deeply how radical my parents were when I was a child. I’m not sure they realized it at the time. In 1972, when I was 5, they put me on a big yellow school bus whose primary route wound through Gordon Heights, in Suffolk County, a nearly all-Black neighborhood that was developed by Louis Fife in the 1920s. I was one of a handful of white children on the route. Two years later, my younger brother joined me on the bus. Growing up in the tiny country SCoTT hamlet of Yaphank, a nearly BRINToN all-white community, I had no notion of the frighteningly seismic socio-political events that were breaking out across the country at the time, including an anti-desegregation movement that swept the nation, roiling cities from Boston to Los Angeles and too many points in between, including the Village of Malverne. “This place was a virtual war zone in the late 1960s and early ’70s, where you had people standing in picket lines ready to kill each other over issues of integration,” then Malverne Schools Superintendent James Hunderfund told the Herald in 2019. “There was a sense of separatism, and

that was prevalent in other places, but it was rampant here.” In Boston alone, 40 anti-desegregation riots and protests broke out between 1974, the year I turned 7, and 1988, when I was a junior and senior in college. Much of the sound and fury was stirred by a group called Restore Our Alienated Rights, or ROAR, led by its chair, Louise Day Hicks, who claimed she was defending white neighborhoods by pushing back against court-ordered desegregation school busing plans. Yet my parents put me on that bus, appearing unworried, as if there were nothing out of the ordinary in this seemingly simple act of parenthood. All these years later, I’m happy and proud they did. It is why, in large part, I grew up to be an antiracist, one who works to eliminate racism in American society through words and actions. I came to this realization when I recently read Ibram X. Kendi’s immeasurably hopeful book, “How to Be an Antiracist” (One World, 2019). In this compact 238-page text, which is one part instruction manual on how to live a life free of racial prejudice and one part personal remembrance and reflection, Kendi, 38, a journalist and university professor, dissects, point by point, the many and varied forms of bigotry while laying out his vision for a socially

just society in which all people, regardless of skin color, can achieve equality and happiness. “If we ignore the odds and fight to create an antiracist world, then we give humanity a chance to one day survive, a chance to live in communion, a chance to be forever free,” Kendi writes. It isn’t surprising that my parents put me on that bus. My father, the son of Christian missionaries, grew up in Africa, in the Congo. One of only a handful of white children in his village — the others were his siblings — he spoke Lunda, a Bantu language, before English. He was steeped in African art and culture and mysticism. As an adult, he was a music teacher and visual artist, and African sounds and design concepts played a central role in his work throughout his life. He spoke of Africa only in the fondest terms, regaling family and friends with often humorous stories of life in the jungle. My maternal grandfather was a drycleaner who set up shop in a Black neighborhood in Bellport, also in Suffolk, and I spent many afternoons behind his counter, playing hide-and-seek with my brother between the clothes racks. Grandpa, whose parents emigrated from Italy, greeted customers as though they were old friends, no matter their color. Kendi grew up in Queens, and he

bram X. Kendi’s immeasurably hopeful book made me think of my parents.

reserves some of his best writing for the chapters describing his childhood. You can see and feel the streets he describes with a certain melodic beat, like a rap. “We certainly weren’t imitating anything on the Ave — to the contrary,” he writes. “The wider culture was avidly imitating and appropriating from us; our music and fashion and language were transforming the so-called mainstream . . . Fresh baggy jeans sagging down. Fresh button-down shirts or designer sweatshirts in the winter under our bubble coats. Fresh T’s or sports jerseys in the summer above our baggy jean shorts. Dangling chains shining like our smiles. Piercings and tattoos and bold colors told the mainstream world just how little we wanted to imitate them.” In this beautiful book, we see a Black child come of age in a nation that is perpetually seeking to define him, cordon him off, suppress him, but we also see this child grow into a man who overcomes the odds, and who confronts not only the racism that is pervasive throughout our society, but within him — yes, he admits, a Black person can be a racist. Only by confronting racism in all its forms can we find peace. “How to Be an Antiracist” does just that.

Searching the heavens for common ground

just booked a reservation to see the next full solar eclipse. Call me an optimist; I expect to be there. Save the date: April 8, 2024. You can see it in all its glorious totality from Mazatlán, Mexico, along a narrow diagonal path that enters the United States near San Antonio and moves across the country to Maine and Canada. I am embarrassed to say I missed the last big eclipse, in 2017, because I couldn’t find anyone who wanted to go to Nashville with me, where the viewing was expected to be RANDI superb. I mean, KREISS how shortsighted was that? I am in awe of astronomical phenomena, and that was possibly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I didn’t go, even though I had a hotel booked. Failure of what? Energy? Determination? I did see a sliver of the eclipse from my home in Woodmere, along with my mail carrier, who was stopped in his tracks, looking skyward through a sun filter. Very meh experience, eclipse-wise.

The world has turned since then. When the pandemic began and we were all shut down and shut inside for long periods of time, I started looking upward and outward for comfort and inspiration. I set up my Celestron telescope and learned how to use it properly. One dark night, I saw the surface of the full moon, with craters and geographical features I hadn’t seen before. Last Dec. 21, I saw the convergence of Jupiter and Saturn and could distinguish the rings of Jupiter in the telescope. As the pandemic wore on and wore me down, I found a real freedom in the night sky, observing the constellations we all know. I watched the International Space Station fly by. I downloaded the NASA website so I could try to spot other space objects floating around overhead. One app visualized my own night sky at any given moment, based on my location as communicated through my phone. This may sound elementary to those well schooled in astronomy, but across the span of my educational experience, astronomy remains a black hole. I have a passion and interest to learn what I can, but I feel

frustrated by how difficult the discipline is. I’m a word person, and astronomy is all about math and physics and chemistry. Still, I’m determined to learn what is within my reach. Speaking of black holes, I’ve read the simplest descriptions of the phenomenon over and over, and yet I don’t get it, or the concept of an expanding universe, or gravitational waves, or dying stars. So I let that go. I absorb what I can. I look at the night sky and know for certain that we are an infinitesimally small piece of the universe, and that other worlds and other beings are possible. I know that our daily gripes and strife and political conflicts are nothing in the cosmos. Whatever our thinking, our alliances and our behaviors, we have in common this minuscule life raft called Earth, and we don’t have it for long. Contemplating the galaxies that stretch for millions of light years in all directions makes me think we can do better with this transitory gift of life. End of lecture. I am comforted by gazing upward, and I wish the same for you. As part of my galactic journey, I just

missed the last big eclipse, but I’m planning to be looking up at the next one.

read “The Last Stargazers: The Enduring Story of Astronomy’s Vanishing Explorers,” by astronomer Emily Levesque. It was much more fun than Stephen Hawking’s “A Brief History of Time,” which was pretty much a black hole to me, not that I can visualize “a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing — [not even] light, can escape from it.” (Wikipedia) Levesque has traveled to every far-flung spot on earth to book “observation time” on the most advanced telescopes in the world, which are always perched on remote, dark-sky mountaintops. She shares her adventures at the observatories in Chile, where the lively tarantulas almost took the fun out of the moment. She talks about the freezing cold at the Mauna Loa observatory in Hawaii, and the time a colleague thought he had discovered a new planet that turned out to be energy coming from a nearby microwave where someone was heating soup. She evokes the gorgeousness of the heavens and the privilege of being among those who roam the stars. Read the book. It’s a great escape into a world most of us don’t know. Then think about the Great Eclipse of April 2024. Save the date. Copyright 2021 Randi Kreiss. Randi can be reached at randik3@aol.com.

■ Avoid extreme temperature changes. ■ Wear loose-fitting, lightweight, lightcolored clothing. Avoid dark colors, because they absorb the sun’s rays. ■ Slow down, stay indoors and avoid strenuous exercise during the hottest part of the day, usually in the afternoon, between 2 and 5 p.m. ■ Postpone outdoor games and activities. ■ Use a buddy system when working in excessive heat. Take frequent breaks if you must work outdoors. ■ Check on family, friends and neighbors who don’t have air conditioning, who spend much of their time alone or who are more likely to be affected by the heat. ■ Check on your pets often to ensure that they aren’t suffering in the heat.

letters Yes, Audubon needs a name change To the Editor: Re Scott Brinton’s column “Audubon Society confronts its racist namesake — sort of ” (July 1-7): I salute Brinton for his thorough analysis and ounce of bravery coming through in the Herald’s opinion pages. I think that his suggestion to change the name of the Audubon Society is proportionate, timely and overdue. I have a feeling that he will face a great deal of opposition, name-calling and resentment from political bodies and individuals, but I am with him all the way. AMNoN TISHLER Bellmore

Getting back into the city To the Editor: I look forward every week to reading Randi

The best way to safely enjoy the water is to learn how to swim. Enroll your family in age-appropriate Red Cross water-orientation and learn-to-swim courses. Basic water safety rules are part of these classes. You’ll learn how to tell if a swimmer is in distress or drowning, and how and when to call for emergency help. You’ll also learn how to help someone in trouble in the water while keeping yourself safe. To find classes for you and your family, contact your local aquatic facility.

Water safety tips

A Red Cross water safety poll released in 2013 showed that nearly half of Americans said they had had an experience in which they were afraid they might drown, yet more than half planned to engage in activities that would put them at risk of drowning over the summer. Members of the Aquatic Sub-Council, part of the Red Cross Scientific Advisory Council, have developed the Circle of Drowning Prevention and Chain of Drowning Survival protocols to raise

awareness of the most important steps swimmers can take to reduce the number of preventable drownings. The Circle of Drowning Prevention shows the layers of protection that can help prevent potential drownings: ■ Pay close and constant attention to children you are supervising in or near water. ■ Fence in pools and spas with adequate barriers, including four-sided fencing. ■ Learn swimming and water-survival skills. ■ Make sure children, inexperienced swimmers and boaters wear U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets, and always swim in areas watched by lifeguards. The Chain of Drowning Survival illustrates the steps you should take when you spot someone in distress in the water: ■ Recognize the signs of a struggling swimmer, and shout for help. ■ Rescue and remove the person from the water without putting yourself in danger. ■ Call emergency medical services. ■ Begin rescue breathing or cardiopulmonary resuscitation if necessary, and use an automated external defibrillator, or AED, if available. ■ Transfer care to advanced life support if needed.

une was National Homeownership Month. For many, homeownership is a part of the American dream that is proving to be increasingly difficult to attain. Long Island home prices have hit historic highs for the second year in a row, reinforcing a 2019 report from New York state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli that found that nearly 40 percent of Long Island homeowners could not afford their homes. Homeownership should not be a luxury few can afford. Long Island’s niCoLe JeAn skyrocketing prices and a CHristiAn home longstanding history of redlining and housing discrimination make homeownership even more challenging for Black people and other people of color. This nature of division was a deliberate choice, and is built into the foundation of Long Island. In 2019, Newsday’s “Long Island Divided” explored the stark segregation and injustices on the Island, noting that 90 percent of Black residents live in just 62 of its 291 communities. Long Island’s racist past did not happen in a vacuum. The state and federal governments had an equal role in instituting racist housing policies. The Federal Housing Administration was a significant player in ensuring that Black Americans stayed out of white suburbs. Communities across the country were developed with the help of the FHA on the condition

that homes would not be sold to AfricanAmericans. Levittown was one of these communities, and it remains nearly allwhite today. Strategic segregation across Long Island set a precedent for the housing bubbles that we see today. Affordable housing on Long Island is often segregated in its own “community” or “development,” becoming a cluster lacking the integration or diversity that is the strength of any suburban community. There is also a stigma attached to the term “affordable housing,” which have been code words to refer to people of non-white descent or of lesser economic means. Yet another difficulty of homeownership on Long Island is a lack of standardized funding from New York state that would ensure affordability. The affordable housing resources that do exist are parceled out in a nonstructured way to local municipalities and some wellknown nonprofits, both of which operate using a business model that favors “profit” or “project completion” over sustained affordability that diversifies communities. Not only is homeownership on Long Island prohibitively expensive, but communities of color are often not afforded the same resources that are allocated to predominantly white, affluent communities. Ideally, all Americans would have equitable access to affordable homes, good education systems and other resources that allow communities to thrive. It is obscene that this is not the standard or even the norm in the U.S., let alone here

‘

on Long Island, home to “America’s first suburb.” In a proclamation during National Homeownership Month, President Biden said the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development would “advance affordable and sustainable homeownership” throughout the country and break the deep-rooted barriers that have prevented so many people of color in the U.S. from becoming homeowners. These barriers, alongside the economic hardships created by the coronavirus pandemic, are keeping many from the opportunity of homeownership. The Uniondale Community Land Trust is working hard to provide this resource in its community. Instead of creating a separate neighborhood of affordable housing, in Uniondale the goal is to integrate affordable housing within the existing neighborhood. With 225 community land trusts across the country, this affordable housing model allows residents to renovate and sell homes at lower-than-market prices while retaining ownership of their land

ffordable housing’ have been code words to refer to people of nonwhite descent.

through 99-year ground leases. This model helps create permanent affordable housing and gives community members agency over how their towns can grow and thrive. U-CLT is working diligently to build a project pipeline to provide homeownership opportunities for families making 60 to 80 percent of the area median income. As of 2020, the AMI in Nassau County was $126,600. The goal is to help provide fair, equitable housing here. Having access to stable, quality, affordable housing helps people become part of diverse communities, find and keep jobs, lead healthier lives, and take better care of their children. There is no question that opportunities to own homes make a serious positive impact in people’s lives. Creating sustainable, affordable housing is an excellent way to ensure that all can become homeowners in their lifetimes. Homeownership does not need to be unattainable. Current homeowners should be able to afford their homes. Providing people and communities with the resources they need to flourish must be a priority everywhere.

FrAmework by Christina Daly

Letters Kreiss’s column in the Herald, and enjoyed none more than “Five-day tour of the Big Apple’s thrills and chills” (July 1-7), about her trip to Manhattan with her daughter and grandchild. I totally relate, having recently ventured back into Manhattan, most recently visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art and MOMA. I hope Randi caught the Alice Neel exhibit at the Met. I was unfamiliar with Neel, but wow, what a creative and gifted artist — from her earlier work of Communist party leaders, to motherhood, to people of color, to the architecture of her beloved Harlem and so much more. And, of course, all the wonderful art at MOMA. Sadly, somehow we missed Van Gogh and Calder, but will definitely go back sometime soon. But I have tickets to immersive Van Gogh, which I’m really looking forward to. Living in Long Beach — and really, anyplace on the Island — it can at times seem, if you let it, like a chore to go into Manhattan, but once there, I quickly realize everything I love and have missed

about the city. There’s nothing quite like that energy, and it feels so great to see it coming back. I just love walking around, taking in the sights and sounds. The streets seem to be as busy as ever. And once theater reopens, I believe Manhattan will be back 100 percent. Thanks to Randi for her oh-so-relatable columns, putting into words much of what I’ve felt, thought and experienced during Covid. LORRAINe CIeRI Long Beach
