New book to profile YESCarolina's successes
By JIMMY BAILEY
Founder, YESCarolina
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
OCT.
7, 2010 - South Carolina leads the nation in one very important
life-relevant skill: to take our kids and put them in the mindset
of what they need to do to compete in the economy.
Bailey |
We
understand the importance of the entrepreneurial spirit and have
parlayed that spirit into Youth Entrepreneurship South Carolina.
Our organization promotes an entrepreneurial mentality among young
people. "The Spirit of Outreach," a book coming out later
this year, will profile a number of YESCarolina's success stories.
YESCarolina was conceived as a result of my reading an article about
a speech made by Steve Marrioti about solving the problem of poverty
through the idea of entrepreneurship. It was really one of those
"a-ha!" moments for me, when I read the article. I was
poor growing up.
 It
made sense to me - this article is not just for me to read, but
about me and others like me. I contacted Steve Marriotti with the
Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship and said, "I want to
bring this to Charleston." I couldn't have done it without
many others. We all sat down and decided we'd take money out of
our pockets and bring an instructor from New York. We did that two
years in a row, then the General Assembly was interested in providing
the training to all teachers in South Carolina.
It
has become a vocation. We've trained 500 teachers in South Carolina
how to teach with a very specific curriculum: Entrepreneurship.
It is an interesting example of how a few people can affect change.
The
problem of poverty has always been something that I understood.
To be able to provide and plant a seed of financial independence
in as many young South Carolinians as possible is our goal.

From
day one, we thought we should have profiles of young entrepreneurs,
and that's where the upcoming book, "The Spirit of Outreach,"
comes in.
In
my estimation, peer pressure works both positively and negatively.
Seeing one's peers in a book, with a business that is either an
idea or established, is more important for young struggling students
in South Carolina than to see the multimillionaires that they just
can't relate to. If one kid in each community is affected positively,
that's pretty good stuff.
One
of YESCarolina's students, Hunter Dean of Beaufort, submitted his
idea for a renewable green energy project (to convert kitchen grease
into fuel) to the Oppenheimer Future Enterprisers competition. Hunter
and 12 other YESCarolina students from around the state will be
at the gala (see box) to present their business plans.
I
hope the book will reach kids in a way that we adults can't reach
them. It will provide the motivation for them to seek out an entrepreneurial
course in their school, and they might end up starting and operating
their own business. It's just so important for a lot of these kids
to have a success - some of them have never had a success before.
Most of them have such great street sense, they could be inspired
by something in the book that they can duplicate in their community
and start making some money.
Jimmy
Bailey, a former state legislator and president of Bailey &
Associates commercial real estate agency, is the founder of YESCarolina.

New film
'Jews and Baseball' to be screened at Sottile Oct. 24
By ANN THRASH, contributing editor
OCT.
7, 2010 - If you know a serious baseball fan, there's a good chance
he or she is a history buff, too. The two subjects just seem to
go together. You could certainly make a good case that people who
love baseball relish its history and traditions more than any other
group of fans relishes a sport.
Thrash |
It
seems like a natural fit, then, that a history-loving, baseball-loving
place like Charleston is one of only a handful of medium-sized cities
to be the site for a screening of a new baseball documentary that
focuses on a unique aspect of the game's history: the role and contribution
of Jewish players in the Major Leagues and the special meaning the
game has for many American Jews.
"Jews
and Baseball: An American Love Story" will be screened on Oct.
24 at the Sottile Theatre downtown. The Charleston Jewish Experience,
which is hosting the event, hopes this "Night of Jewish Film"
will become an annual event to be called the Charleston Jewish Film
Festival.
It's
perhaps not widely known, but Charleston has a distinctive place
in the history of Judaism in America. The city's earliest governing
document made freedom of worship a cornerstone, attracting a number
of Jewish families to the colony virtually from its founding. Charleston's
Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim congregation, founded in 1749, was one
of the first five Jewish congregations established in America, and
its present sanctuary is the second-oldest synagogue building in
the United States -- and the oldest in continuous use. By 1800,
according to historian Walter Edgar's "South Carolina Encyclopedia,"
by 1800 one-fifth of all Jews in the United States lived in Charleston.
 Written
by Pulitzer Prize-winning former New York Times sportswriter Ira
Berkow and narrated by actor Dustin Hoffman, "Jews and Baseball"
features some wonderful old footage and stories about great baseball
players from the 19th century to the present. It includes a rare
interview with Hall of Famer Sandy Koufax, who earned national attention
when he decided not to pitch Game 1 of the 1965 World Series because
it fell on the Jewish High Holy Day of Yom Kippur. Others interviewed,
both inside and outside the game, include Yogi Berra, Kevin Youkilis,
Shawn Green, talk show host Larry King, and director Ron Howard.
In
the film's trailer -- watch
it here -- players talk about fighting through stereotypes about
Jews being bad at all sports. Far worse, they dealt with outright
discrimination -- hotels that didn't want Jewish players to stay
there, for example. Fans and even players on other teams made Jewish
players the target of epithets. "As soon as you struck out,
you were not only a bum, you were a Jewish bum," one player
says in the trailer.
As
a press release about the film notes, "More than a film about
sports, 'Jews and Baseball' is a story of immigration, assimilation,
bigotry, heroism, the passing on of traditions, and the shattering
of stereotypes."
"We
have many reasons for establishing a Jewish film festival in Charleston,
but first and foremost we hope to inspire a greater appreciation
and long-lasting connection among members of the broader Charleston
community by showcasing our rich traditions but also our modern
Jewish culture," says Stanley Baker, president of BSBI Synagogue.
"We also strive to instill pride in the members of our congregation.
The event will start a tradition of featuring iconic Jewish filmmakers
and movies as well as honoring individuals devoted to supporting
the arts and Jewish culture in our city."
The
evening will begin at 6:30 p.m. at the Sottile, 44 George St., with
a dessert and champagne reception at which local resident Judith
Solomon will receive the first Melvin and Judith Solomon Humanitarian
Award for her longtime dedication to the arts in Charleston. The
film screening starts at 7:45 p.m.
Tickets
are $50 for the film and reception, and $20 for the film only. For
information or to buy tickets, go

medical staff includes dispatchers, first responders, our medical
directors, hospital staff, plus all of the supportive staff, mechanics,

World
War II vets' memories can be heard in digital library
They
went from the classroom to combat. These were The Citadel students
of the World War II-era, an estimated 4,000 who answered the nation's
call to fight totalitarianism in Europe and Asia. Now, 26 of their
oral histories, including the audio recordings and full transcriptions,
are available online through the Lowcountry
Digital Library.
The
publication of the interviews represents the culmination of a two-year
project undertaken by The Citadel
Oral History Program to document the dramatic experiences and
critical contributions that these alumni made to the war effort.
 "Formatting
the materials makes them very convenient for classroom use, and
they are reaching an even larger audience online," said Oral
History Program Coordinator Kerry Taylor. "The inclusion of
the oral histories in the Lowcountry Digital Library also helps
build what is becoming a premier regional online archive."
According
to The Citadel Archives and Museum, it is estimated that nearly
all of about 4,000 undergraduates who attended The Citadel during
World War II served in the Armed Forces. In addition 1,927 of the
known 2,976 living graduates in 1946 had fought in World War II.
Among
the oral histories included are those of former South Carolina Supreme
Court Chief Justice A. Lee Chandler, '44, and his classmate Robert
S. Adden, '44. The Class of 1944 went on active duty after their
junior year and became "the class that never was" because
they did not graduate.
In
his oral history Adden describes playing dead as German soldiers
and tanks passed him by. "They were so close one time I had
to pull my legs in to keep the tank from running over my legs,"
he said.
Other
notable interviewees include B-17 bomber pilot and former South
Carolina Lt. Gov. Burnet Maybank, Jr., '45, and former Citadel President
Gen. James A. Grimsley, '42, whose 33-year Army career included
three Purple Hearts.
The
WWII interviews were conducted by former Citadel Fellow Jack Bass
and are permanently housed at The Citadel Archives and Museum. Click

Jeanes
Teachers' program improved African American schools
In
the early 1900s, most African American children in South Carolina
only attended school through the fourth grade for a few months each
year in poorly maintained and equipped schools. Most African American
teachers had little education.
Jeanes |
In
1907 Anna T. Jeanes, a wealthy Philadelphia Quaker, donated $1 million
to set up the Negro Rural School Fund to provide educational opportunities
for black children in the rural South. At the insistence of Jeanes,
Booker T. Washington joined a group of mostly white men on the board.
As a result, the focus of the program was industrial education at
first.
The
program began with the hiring of the first Jeanes Teacher in Virginia
in 1908. The Jeanes Supervisors, mostly African American women,
helped teachers in rural schools. Many received training at traditionally
black colleges in the South. By 1914 there were 118 Jeanes Teachers
or Supervisors working across the South. By 1928, there were 324.
Julia
Berry was employed as South Carolina's first Jeanes Industrial Teacher
in 1909 in Sumter County. Although ten other Jeanes Teachers began
working in the state in 1909, the program grew slowly. Until a State
Director of Negro Education was appointed in 1918, no one had the
specific responsibility of presenting the program to local communities.
The Jeanes Fund initially paid the teachers' salaries, but in order
for the program to expand, the state and its counties would have
to contribute.
In
1936 the South Carolina Superintendent of Education reported that
schools employing Jeanes Teachers were noticeably superior to those
that did not. As the state and its counties became convinced of
the value of the Jeanes program, they began to assume more of the
costs.
Jeanes
Teachers encouraged self-sufficiency. They taught students and their
families to sew, bake, and do carpentry. Jeanes Teachers made home
visits to urge children to attend school regularly, interacted with
the community, emphasized the need for better health care, and taught
families about sanitation. In 1918 the state's fifteen Jeanes Teachers
became involved in organizing almost three hundred Homemakers' Clubs
with more than 4,600 members as part of the war effort. Over time
the emphasis of the Jeanes program shifted from a community focus
to an educational focus. Jeanes Teachers sponsored reading workshops,
in-service programs for teachers, art exhibits for children, and
taught children how to cooperate with each other. They established
libraries and helped to raise money for new facilities and schoolbooks.
The
end of school segregation in the 1960s led to the demise of the
Jeanes Teachers program. Having black Jeanes teachers supervising
white teachers in newly integrated school systems was difficult.
New federal grants provided funds to meet educational needs. Nevertheless,
for more than sixty years, Jeanes Teachers had helped to provide
better educational opportunities for African American children in
South Carolina.

Five on being
kind to your back
Lowery |
A couple of
years ago, we became convinced a disk was damaged in our lower back.
Nothing crippling, but it made us feel ... old. We bought a zero
gravity chair like the astronauts use, and lived happily ever after,
frequently with our feet somewhere over our heads. This made us
wonder: What other tips could help us improve our posture and zero
out that pain?
We asked Todd
Lowery, owner of the Mount Pleasant Relax the Back store.
- Mom was
right -- sit up straight, with your shoulders back. Buttocks should
touch the back of your chair.
- Distribute
body weight evenly on both hips.
- Bend knees
at a right angle; don't cross your knees, and keep them even with
or slightly higher than your hips.
- When driving,
move the seat close to the steering wheel to support the curve
of your back. You should be close enough to bend your knees and
still reach the pedals.
- Avoid sitting
in the same position for more than 30 minutes.
