Anyone interested? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:2013_MA_congress_districts_5,_7,_8.png From: Norma Wassel <normawassel(a)yahoo.com> Reply-To: Norma Wassel <normawassel(a)yahoo.com> Date: Tuesday, December 13, 2016 at 7:46 PM Subject: meeting with Rep. Katherine Clark's staff Hello - If you are interested and able to join Atty. Judy Somberg at a meeting with Lauren Pardi, staff member at Rep. Clark's local office on Concord Ave. near Fresh Pond on Monday 12/19 @ 3:00pm, please email me and Judy Somberg at Judy_Somberg(a)igc.org. Judy is a local attorney active in the National Lawyer's Guild and human rights work in Central America. She is looking for Rep. Clark's constituents to join her at the meeting to urge Rep. Clark to sign on as a co-sponsor of HR 5474 which focuses on human rights in Honduras. You may know that Berta Carceres, a human rights activist working on protecting the environment for the indigenous population, was murdered earlier this year for her work. You wouldn't have to say much, just that as a constituent of Rep. Clark that you are concerned about human rights, and that you request that she join the other 40+ Representatives to sign on as a co-sponsor.We are trying to recruit residents who live in her district, so if you know others who might be interested, please let them know. I may be attending but I am not sure at this time. - Norma cell 617-306-4916

FW: Cambridge Historical Commission Announces Release of Building Old Cambridge

A great resource, and fun! From: "Tomeu, Ini" <itomeu(a)cambridgema.gov> Date: Monday, December 12, 2016 at 5:13 PM To: "Tomeu, Ini" <itomeu(a)cambridgema.gov> Subject: Cambridge Historical Commission Announces Release of Building Old Cambridge Hello, please see attached news release, also pasted in as text below. Ini Tomeu, Public Information Officer City of Cambridge 795 Massachusetts Ave. Cambridge, MA 02139 617-349-4339/ itomeu(a)cambridgema.gov Like Us on Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/CambridgeMA.Gov> City of Cambridge Public Information Office For Immediate Release Cambridge Historical Commission Releases Publication, Building Old Cambridge: Architecture and Development Cambridge, MA, December 12, 2016 -- The Cambridge Historical Commission is pleased to announce the release of Building Old Cambridge: Architecture and Development. Published by The MIT Press, the book is now available at the Historical Commission office, in bookstores, and online. The cover price is $49.95. Building Old Cambridge: Architecture and Development is written by Susan E. Maycock, an architectural historian and Survey Director of the Cambridge Historical Commission, and Charles M. Sullivan, a city planner who has been the Commission¹s Executive Director since 1974. Extensively illustrated with many historic images never before published, the book is a comprehensive exploration of the city¹s history and architecture. In preparation for over 20 years, Building Old Cambridge explores the neighborhood that grew up around the English settlement of Newtowne, founded as the capital of Massachusetts Bay in 1630, and Harvard College, established in 1636. By the mid-19th century, Cambridge comprised widely separated, named villages, and the original village near Harvard Square became known as Old Cambridge. Successive waves of newcomersincluding West Indian planters who built great estates in the 1750s, suburbanites from the 1850s, and the annual flood of professors and studentsenriched the life of the community and contributed to the layering of architectural styles that is evident in all corners of the neighborhood. The book examines the influence of the university and its often-wealthy students on the development of the Square itself, Old Cambridge¹s nationally renowned printing and publishing industries, and vital communities of African Americans and Irish immigrants. Established in 1963 as the city¹s historic preservation agency, the Cambridge Historical Commission maintains an active publications program. The Survey of Architectural History in Cambridge published five neighborhood studies between 1965 and 1977. A new neighborhood history, East Cambridge, followed in 1988, and five volumes of oral histories appeared from 1997 to 2015. Cambridge Historical Commission is located at 831 Massachusetts Ave., 2nd floor, Cambridge.
