claimed. “We need an action planand not just inspiration.”

“We join you in having this bethe year to get something done,”Superintendent Steve Cochranereplied.

Earlier the same day, Cochranemet with an action team to workon one of the Princeton PublicSchools’ strategic plan goals of closing the achievement gap.Groups such as MSAN aim to fa-cilitate this process.

“We have a goal of dedicating ayear of research to discoveringwhat works and what doesn’t inour school while also discoveringways to improve,” said IsaiahAnagbo, who heads activities forPHS MSAN.

The group’s primary focus willbe to better understand student-teacher relationships.

“It’s a two-way street,” Anagbocontinued. “We feel that both stu-dent and teacher have to partici-pate in creating a relationship

that ensures the quality of takingthe initiative and must work to-ward creating a stable learningenvironment by putting them-selves out there.”

Malachi Benjamin, a freshmanin the group, explained the differ-ence of equality versus equity tothe board.

“We don’t all have the same re-sources. Whether it be time or in-

ternet access, not everyone hasthe same amount of resources astheir peers. It’s important for theeducation system to work aroundthese impediments,” Benjamin

said. “We must value equity – befair to every student to createcommon value and appreciation.”

The board sent Princeton’sMSAN students to the MSAN Stu-dent Conference hosted in theVerona Area School District inWisconsin from Oct. 7 to Oct. 10.The theme was “exploring deeperroots” and demonstrated to mi-nority students the importance of taking action, being agents of change and embracing one’s self.

PHS MSAN President JoanneAdebayo quoted one of her fa-vorite speakers from the confer-ence, Everett D. Mitchell: “Whatare you going to do with thepower you’ve been given?”

The conference seemed toserve as an impetus for the stu-dents to kick up their efforts a fewnotches and be the change rather

According to the Library of Congress archives, Black HistoryMonth arose from “Negro Histo-ry Week” in 1925, which spannedover the birthdays of both Fred-erick Douglass and Abraham Lin-coln in February. In 1976, Presi-dent Gerald R. Ford extended theweek to a month, urging the na-

tion to “seize the opportunity tohonor the too-often neglected ac-complishments of black Ameri-cans in every area of endeavorthroughout our history.”

Though some, such as Prince-ton’s first black mayor Jim Floydin an interview during last year’sBHM, may say we don’t need amonth to celebrate the countlessfeats of African Americans inthis country, the country has oneanyway. And, if you feel like cele-brating that, there’s plenty to do

in the neighborhood.This Saturday, Feb. 6, there will

be a Community PartnershipEvent hosted by Not In Our TownPrinceton and McCarter Theatre.Directly following the 3 p.m. mati-nee of McCarter’s “The PianoLesson,” guests are invited to theBerlind Rehearsal Room for an in-teractive and intimate conversa-tion among small groups.

“This post-performance event

is intended to provide an opportu-nity for interested audience mem-bers to engage with one anotherin a conversation that focusesspecifically on the story of “ThePiano Lesson” as an articulationof black American experiencethrough which issues and themespertaining to race, racism andracial oppression and injusticecan be shared and explored formeaning and understanding,”

McCarter’s PR Director TomMiller said.Reservations for the 90-minute

event are required. For more in-formation, visitniotprinceton.com ormccarter.org.

The Princeton community andpublic schools will join togetherat the corner of Walnut Lane andFranklin Avenue for an eveningof gospel music and dance. In cel-ebration of BHM, Princeton HighPerforming arts will fill with

voices. Composer and conductorJ. Donald Dumpson will lead thePrinceton High School choirs, theRevelation Praise Dance Ministryof First Baptist Church, as well asmembers of the WitherspoonStreet Presbyterian Church andFirst Baptist Church of Prince-ton.

“In past years, PPS celebratedthe artistic contributions of African Americans by introduc-

ing students and communitymembers to the rich and diversegenres of American music,” saidAssenka Oksiloff, communica-tions director for PPS. “Our 2016Black History Month Celebrationwill highlight the development of gospel music as an art form.”

The celebration will be heldFeb. 19 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $10for adults and $5 for students andseniors. For more information

and tickets, contact Mia Garganat (609) 806-4270.As part of the Witherspoon-

Jackson Neighborhood StoriesProject, there will be a celebra-tion on Feb. 21 at the PrincetonPublic Library. Entitled “Listen,Lord: The Witherspoon StreetPresbyterian Church’s 175 Yearsin the Fight for Freedom,” theevent is sponsored by the libraryand Arts Council of Princetonwith support from the NationalEndowment for the Humanities.

The program, from 3 to 4 p.m.,will feature readings and musicabout the fight for freedom. Thiswill span from the founding of the Witherspoon Street Presbyte-rian Church through the CivilRights period to now. The gather-ing will take place at the library’scommunity room. It is free andopen to the public.

Morris Hall Meadows at LawrencevilleMorris Hall Meadows at

Lawrenceville, a refreshing, con-

temporary approach to nursing

home living, is accepting applica-

tions into their new community.

Morris Hall Meadows is a satellite

campus of Morris Hall, which is

located at 1 Bishops' Drive on the

northern side of Route 206.

Morris Hall Meadows at

Lawrenceville are six skilled nurs-

ing houses, based on the GreenHouse model developed by Dr. Bill

Thomas. These houses are the

first of their kind in Central and

South Jersey. The houses

embrace three core values: a

meaningful life, empowered staff,

and a real home. There will be a

focus on community, compassion

and comfort for every individual, in

an environment that provides out-

standing physical and emotional

support, and spiritual care. Elders

will live in actual homes offering

more privacy and comfort than tra-

ditional nursing home settings.

The goal is for each Morris HallMeadows elder to have a mean-

ingful life with as much autonomy

over his or her activities as they

choose. Each of the thoughtfully

designed single-level homes has

ten private bed-and-bath suites

overlooking beautifully landscaped

grounds. At the center of each

home, and accessible to elders at

all times, is a spacious hearth

room with a fireplace facing a

comfortable patio, a shared dining

room and an open kitchen, as well

as a spa area and a cozy library.

answer for you or a loved one? Setup your tour of Morris Hall

New Jersey enacts uniform trust codeBy: Steven L. Friedman, Esq.

Chair, Trusts & Estates Group, Stark & Stark

There are several types of laws

that govern our lives. Statutory

Law is created by legislatures tocodify and bring certainty to a par-

ticular area of law. Common Law

is developed over time by the

courts, where a judge’s written

opinion is considered binding on

future matters with similar issues.

Perhaps the most well known

source of Common Law is the

United States Supreme Court.

The Uniform Law Commission is a

nonprofit organization that creates

suggested "Uniform" laws asmodels for State legislatures to

use, which helps standardize laws

from state-to-state.

On Jan. 19, New Jersey became

the 32nd state to enact a version

of the Uniform Trust Code. Until

now, many disputes regarding

Trusts have been controlled by

Common Law. While some trust

law has already been incorporated

into the New Jersey Probate Code,

the Uniform Trust Code is much

more comprehensive and

addresses some very importantissues, including the following:

Trust Creation. Just like the

requirements for signing a will,

trusts must be made in writing,

and the person who creates the

trust (the “Settlor”) must have the

capacity, and indicate the inten-

tion, to create a trust.

Types of Trusts. Specific guide-

lines are established for creating

Special Need Trusts for disabled

individuals, trusts for the care of animals, and even trusts without

ascertainable beneficiaries.

Trusteeship. Rules are included

to regulate the administration of a

trust when there are several Co-

Trustees acting together, or if

there is a vacancy in the trustee-

ship. Trustees will be obligated to

disclose information to certain

trust beneficiaries, but will be able

to avoid liability by obtaining the

consent of trust beneficiaries

before taking certain action. To

simplify the administration of atrust, trustees will be permitted to

supply trust certifications to finan-

cial institutions in lieu of providing

copies of the entire trust agree-

ment.

Non-Judicial Settlement

Agreements. Beneficiaries and

Trustees will be allowed to enter

into settlement agreements with-

out court approval, as long as the

agreements do not violate a mate-

rial purpose of the Trust, thereby resolving many trust disputes eco-

nomically and expeditiously.

Interpretation, Modification and

Termination of Trusts. The

Doctrine of Probable Intent allows

the courts to use a Settlor's prob-

able intent to interpret, and even

reform, ambiguous trust provi-

sions. The law also establishes

multiple criteria for when a trust

may be modified or terminated,

including:

1.) Lack of any purpose to be

achieved by the trust;2.) Consent of the settlor and

the beneficiaries;

3.) Occurrence of an unantici-

pated circumstance;

4.) Inability to administer the

trust effectively; and

5.) The trust becoming uneco-

nomical to administer.

Beneficiary representation. The

law establishes virtual representa-

tion, which allows a parent to rep-

resent and bind the interest of any

minor or unborn children, barring

no conflicts of interest. The attor-ney general is given the authority

to represent charitable beneficiar-

ies having their principal place of

administration in New Jersey.

For more information about the

Uniform Trust Code, contact

Steven Friedman at (609) 895-

7268 or visit www.Stark-

Stark.com/trusts-estates.html.

community, and African Ameri-cans were part of it from the be-ginning. The city was integratedearly on until ‘white’ AtlanticCity decided they’d had enoughand pushed blacks into the NorthSide and segregated the board-walk. It’s shocking and fascinat-ing and something all Americansshould know.”

Hervieux spoke to what shewill discuss at her Princeton Uni-versity lecture and book signingslated for Feb. 10.

“It’s really a history of ourcountry and it’s not a pretty histo-ry,” she continued. “It’s aboutwhat racism and Jim Crow did tothese men and how the effects of feeling freedom outside the U.S.made a huge impact on the bud-

ding civil rights movement.When the men returned home,they refused to take being treatedas sub-human.”

Hervieux explained howBritain did not allow Jim Crow tobe imported to the shores. Re-gardless of how hard the armytried to perpetuate its segregatedways in Europe, the territory itwas in would not allow blacks tobe treated less.

foggy gaze offering hugs and con-gratulations. A few strangersadded to the diversity: a boy withhis face tattooed staring at theworks while munching on ba-nana bread baked by Brown Lit-tle, Griffin’s neighbor and co-cu-rator.

The exhibit entitled “Portraitsand Legends” arose when AndorCarius, a friend who had been in-terviewing, or rather conversing,with Griffin for years, became cu-rious about the many people whosat for Griffin.

“As I was interviewing Gillett, Inoticed many of his portraitswere done when his subjects wereat a younger age and wonderedwhatever happened to them,where are they now, and what arethey doing today? I researchedsome of these names, and sudden-ly very interesting life stories

emerged,” Carius said. “Some of his depicted subjects had becomelegends in their lifetimes.”

Curated by Carius and Littlewith support of the library andArts Council of Princeton, the ex-hibit is filled with Griffin’s por-traits. Each was accompanied bytwo legends containing the sub-

ject’s stories, one as rememberedby Griffin and the other recordedby Carius years later.

The pieces were pulled outfrom closets and from under beds.

Individuals from all walks of life,both dead and living, awoke onthe library walls in mismatchedframes.

“It’s incredible,” Griffin whis-pered in response to the crowdwho’d surfaced from the snow theway his portraits surfaced fromthe dust.

Griffin, born in Brooklyn in1928, drew so often he could do a17-inch by 24-inch portrait draw-

ing in about 20 to 40 minutes. Hestudied graphic arts at Yale when

graphic art was but a bud in theart world. In 1952, he became cu-rator of graphic arts at PrincetonUniversity’s Firestone Libraryuntil 1967, during which he culti-vated a passion for Meso-Ameri-can culture. Griffin was later ap-pointed as the Princeton Univer-sity Art Museum’s curator of Pre-Columbian Art where he stayeduntil 2005. Griffin traveled exten-sively throughout Central andSouth America to learn more of his trade.

"I didn't want to be a camera-toting gringo, so I decided to drawor paint what I see," Griffin, now87, told Carius during one of theirchats.

When Griffin became curator,PUAM had just a few works of Pre-Columbian art. Today, thanksto Griffin’s devotion as well asmany contributions from his ownreservoir of artifacts, the muse-um’s collection is widely recog-nized.

“After some introductory re-marks about the significance of certain pieces, [Griffin] allowsstudents and visitors at the muse-um or at home in his private col-lection to handle expensive an-tique artifacts directly withoutgloves and without fear, to get intouch with them by sensual andintuitive feeling to perceive theiruse and meaning,” Carius said.

In addition to his unique teach-ing approach, Griffin adoreddrawing his subjects and, accord-

ing to Carius, illuminated “theirhuman essence and dignity, re-gardless of socio-cultural status.”

Ty Heineken, a local anthropol-ogist, writer and patron of Japan-ese folk art, met Griffin in 1972.

“Gillett has a beautiful eye forall sorts of things,” Heinekensaid. “He has a way of finding re-ality without seeking it and,while shedding his naiveté, hasremained innocent, which I think

is what we all are supposed to doas we get older.”

“You are a living treasure,” Lit-tle told Griffin at the opening.

“This is the last exhibit of thiskind in this space,” Arts CouncilPresident Jeff Nathanson an-nounced. “And for this I am sad.But I cannot think of a more fit-ting artist to have in this finalshow.”

“After I am recycled,”Heineken continued, “I hope tomeet Gillett in a cloud and passthe time doing wonderful thingslike looking at art and listening tomusic.”

FEB 3 9 2016 THE PRINCETON SUN 21


21/24

By ERICA CHAYES WIDA

The Sun

At its Jan. 11 meeting, Prince-ton council introduced a bond or-dinance that would add 20.4 acresof land to the Princeton RidgePreserve between Mt. Lucas Roadand Route 206. On Jan. 25, after anhour-long discussion regarding apossible fall-through of govern-ment funding from the Depart-ment of Environmental Protec-tion’s Green Acres Program, a di-vided council tabled the vote until

Feb. 8.When the ordinance was first

introduced, all members were infavor except Bernie Miller and JoButler, who was not in atten-dance. Miller voiced his disap-proval based on the notion thatcouncil has approved and ac-quired acreage like wildfire andshould focus its efforts not on ob-taining more land but on beingbetter stewards of the land thatalready is owned.

“This ordinance is for the pur-chase of Princeton land at theridge preserve for a purchase of $4.4 million. This is a partnershipbetween a county grant and otherpartners,” Princeton Administra-tor Marc Dashield said.

Mercer County will make $2.2million in funding available forthe acquisition: $700,000 to themunicipality, $500,000 to Friendsof Princeton Open Space, $500,000to New Jersey ConservationFoundation and $500,000 to Stony

Brook-Millstone Watershed. Inaddition, Friends of PrincetonOpen Space will give $100,000 andTransco | Williams will pay

$153,000.

Dashield updated council re-garding its application for aGreen Acres Program grant fromthe state Department of Environ-mental Protection: “They can’tgive us a definite, but once moneyis available, and we believe it willbe available, we should be able toreceive the remaining balancefrom Green Acres.”

Lempert said there has recent-ly been some legislative heat interms of the Green Acres fundingon how it needs to be done.

“The governor wants it to gothrough the budget process as op-posed to having the legislature doit through a separate appropria-tion process, which is what theyhave been doing,” Lempert said.

She emphasized that, to her un-derstanding, the money for thefund would still be there at thetime of purchase but is not thereat this moment.

Councilman Patrick Simonvoiced his opinion: “Right now,

(Gov.) Christie has made it looklike the state won’t come through,and even though we have receivedassurances, I would be comfort-able tabling this because if we’rewrong and pass it, we’re stickingthe Princeton taxpayer with $2million.”

“What’s the risk if we don’t dothis now in terms of losing theproperty?” CouncilwomanHeather Howard asked.

“Not passing this ordinancecould risk the actual purchase of

the property. We will have anoth-er break point before the actualclosing happens if we want toback out,” Dashield said.

Princeton resident Wendy

Mager, who serves as president of Friends of Princeton Open Spaceand first vice president of theNew Jersey Conservation Foun-dation, stepped to the podium toclarify that the funds from GreenAcres are from an old GreenAcres grant and will not be affect-ed by the legislative issues withthe governor.

“The money is being collectedand has been constitutionallydedicated by the voters. Theremay be a delay in the funds, but

there is no question that thefunds are there,” Mager said.“The principle cost of this pur-chase is fully funded, which Ithink is amazing. This has beenin our master plan for literallydecades that the Princeton Ridgeis a key area to preserve land. Youmade the right decision in intro-ducing the ordinance, and I

strongly urge you to go forward

and pass this ordinance tonight.”After an hour of conflict and

public hearing, Council remaineddivided on the topic and decidedto delay its vote to Feb. 8 and willpursue information regardingGreen Acres before then. Thefinal meeting to close the pur-chase of the Princeton Ridgeproperty remains to be Feb. 28.

In other news:• Council introduced the new

director of Princeton Public Li-brary, Brett Bonfield.
