In Remembrance Of Fitzgerald Redd Beaver , Gone But Never Forgotten.

January 1, 2020 by Admin NW FACTS 4 Comments

“I shall pass this way but once; therefore any good that I can do or any kindness that I may show let me do it now. For I shall not pass this way again.”

FITZGERALD REDD BEAVER (FITZ) (1922–1992)

Fitzgerald Beaver , Photo History: Friday, Aug3, 1962 News clipping photo of “From My Pen” Beavers Weekly Editorial

Fitzgerald Beaver was born January 18, 1922, in Martinsville, Virginia. He graduated from high school in Martinsville and then attended North Carolina A & T College in Greensboro, North Carolina in the late 1930s.  Beaver left college without graduating and worked as a railroad porteracross the United States. By the beginning of World War II he had arrived in the Pacific Northwest and was living in the city of Portland, Oregon.

During the war “Fitz” Beaver, as he was now known, worked briefly for the U.S. Army as a civilian employee and then was hired by the Kaiser Company in Portland as a shipyard worker. After the war he briefly resided in North Bend, Oregon where he worked at a local radio station.  Finding a career he liked, he moved to Los Angeles, California to pursue radio and public relations training.

“Eager Beaver” Fitzgerald Beaver Photo History : In 1955, Fitzgerald returned to Portland and at the age of 33 became a local radio personality known as “Eager Beaver.”

In 1955, he returned to Portland and at the age of 33 became a local radio personality known as “Eager Beaver.”  In 1961, Beaver moved to Seattle, Washington to manage radio station KZAM-FM, the first black-owned radio station in the Pacific Northwest. He stayed at the station only a few months before launching The FACTS newspaper on September 7, 1961.

The FACTS quickly became a major media presence in black Seattle. The paper’s mission stated:  “We try to pick up where the daily papers leave off” meaning the paper would focus on stories not covered by the major daily newspapers but which were of particular interest to black Seattleites.  He gave the paper a distinctive “pink” color to separate it from its competitors. By the late 1960s, Beaver authored a popular column called “Right On!” that discussed local and regional issues.

Beaver was an eclectic personality who often clashed with other black journalists over news related to African Americans such as coverage of the race riots in Seattle and across the nation in the late 1960s.  His FACTS newspaper also became a community icon.  Its office, on the corner of Cherry Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Way, was a familiar landmark in Seattle’s Central District with an old truck situated on top of the slanted roof and a large reader board.

Despite his clashes with other black journalists Beaver also hired numerous young black journalists who went on to other newspapers.  Chris Bennett, owner and publisher of a competing African American weekly newspaper, The Medium, and Ernie Foster, publisher of The Skanner newspaper in Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington, were aided by Beaver when they established their respective new

An ardent golfer, Beaver was a founding member of the predominantly African American Fir State Golf Club. He also served as president of the Boys and Girls Club in Seattle and worked with the Army, Navy and Coast Guard in minority recruiting programs in the 1970s and 1980s.

Fitzgerald “Fitz” Beaver died on
New Year’s Day, 1992 in Seattle, Washington at the age of 69. 

Survivors include his wife, Elizabeth, and their three children, Dennis, Marla, and LaVonne Beaver who are the current publishers of the newspaper.

HOLD ON HAWKS – Injuries Going Into This Sundays GAME

December 19, 2019 by Admin NW FACTS Leave a Comment

The Seahawks began Sunday’s game against the Panthers without four starters on defense, and things only got worse from there, with safety Quandre Diggs and linebacker Bobby Wagner both leaving the game with ankle injuries.

Carroll said Wagner “sprained his ankle a little bit,” adding that the severity of the injury is not yet known.

Wagner said after the game that, “I’ll be fine,” and he was in very good spirits, first interrupting K.J. Wright’s session with the media to make fun of his fellow linebacker’s interception return skills, then later using his injury as a way to solicit votes in the Walter Payton Man of the Year Twitter challenge.

“I definitely was scared, but I’m good,” he said. “The doctors said that if everybody goes out and votes for me for Man of the Year, it’d be better.

Digg’s ankle injury “looks a little more serious” than Wagner’s, Carroll said. “We’ll see. That would be a big loss if we can’t get him to get back next week. He’s been playing great football for us.”

Carroll said that Jadeveon Clowney, who was downgraded from questionable to out on Friday, was “violently sick” and couldn’t make the trip.

“He was violently sick on Friday when we were leaving,” Carroll said. “He threw up on the field and we couldn’t—he just was too sick to get on the plane. And he had already been really sick, he tried to make it back he came out, but it was just like we couldn’t put him on the plane and travel with him. He was too ill.”

Carroll said Ziggy Ansah, who missed the game with a neck injury, “has a really good chance to play next week.

The status of cornerback Shaquill Griffin, who missed the game with a hamstring injury, won’t be known until later in the week, Carroll said.

Civil Rights Coalition Applauds Committee on Efforts to Close Minority Homeownership Gap, Eliminate Discriminatory Policies: “This is What Oversight Looks Like”

May 13, 2019 by NWFacts Leave a Comment

The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, joined by Americans for Financial Reform, submitted testimony today to the House Subcommittee on Housing, Community Development and Insurance at its hearing on “A Review of the State of and Barriers to Minority Homeownership.” The Leadership Conference applauds the chair and the committee for examining policies to address our nation’s troubling racial gap in homeownership and many financial practices that impact communities of color.

“We are grateful not just for today’s hearing, but for what can only be described as a flurry of hearings in the past several weeks that have examined policies and practices affecting the financial health of communities of color,” said the groups in their testimony. “The pace has undoubtedly been challenging, but we commend the members of this committee and its tireless staff for their hard work and their willingness to engage in serious discussions about how our nation should regulate the financial services industry moving forward.”

The testimony details a historic overview of the state of the minority homeownership gap and offers recommendations to encourage continued oversight on discriminatory financial policies. These include:

  • Housing finance reform
  • Improvements in credit score models
  • Enforcement of the Fair Housing Act
  • Oversight and clear metrics for measuring affordable housing within new Opportunity Zone programs

“The lessons learned from the housing crisis – or in some cases, the lessons that should have been learned – must be kept in mind if we are to succeed in efforts to promote sustainable levels of homeownership among communities of color,” said the groups.

Cantwell’s Bipartisan Public Lands Package Signed into Law

March 13, 2019 by NWFacts Leave a Comment

Legislation permanently reauthorizes Land and Water Conservation Fund, which has invested more than $675 million in over 600 Washington state projects

 Package also protects Methow Headwaters from mining, addresses water challenges in Yakima Basin, designates Mountains to Sound Greenway as National Heritage Area, updates volcano monitoring and early warning systems, provides 21st century technology to firefighters around the country

U.S. Senator Maria Cantwell’s (D-WA) bipartisan public lands legislation, including significant wins for public lands across Washington state, was signed into law by President Trump.

“Public lands and access to lands are a juggernaut part of our economy,” Senator Cantwell said. “This legislation gives the tools and resources to local communities to manage this, to give more access to the American people, to do the things that will help us grow jobs and help us recreate for the future and preserve against a very challenging and threatening climate.”

 

 

 

 

 

The John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act, formerly known as the Natural Resources Management Act, which Cantwell introduced with Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), permanently reauthorizes the Land and Water Conservation Fund, which expired on September 30, 2018. It was the second time in three years Congress failed to reauthorize the program.

MIXED-MEDIA ARTIST AARON FOWLER AWARDED THE 2019 GWENDOLYN KNIGHT AND JACOB LAWRENCE PRIZE BY SEATTLE ART MUSEUM

January 26, 2019 by NWFacts Leave a Comment

The Seattle Art Museum (SAM) announced the selection of mixed-media artist Aaron Fowler as the recipient of the 2019 Gwendolyn Knight and Jacob Lawrence Prize. Major funding for the prize is provided by the Jacob and Gwendolyn Knight Lawrence Foundation. Fowler will receive a $10,000 award to further his artistic practice, and his work will be featured in a solo exhibition in SAM’s Gwendolyn Knight & Jacob Lawrence Gallery in fall 2019.

Awarded bi-annually since 2009 to an early career Black artist, defined loosely as an artist in the first decade of their career, the Gwendolyn Knight and Jacob Lawrence Prize has become a platform for catapulting artists into the influential vanguard of contemporary artistic practice. Previous recipients of the prize are Titus Kaphar (2009), Theaster Gates (2011), LaToya Ruby Frazier (2013), Brenna Youngblood (2015), and Sondra Perry (2017).

 

Based in Harlem, Los Angeles, and St. Louis, Aaron Fowler makes large-scale sculptural assemblages composed of a wide range of found materials. With references to American history, Black culture, and real and imagined narratives, each work is densely layered with meaning and materiality. From ironing boards and car parts to hair weaves and videos, Fowler’s work is imbued with multivalent narratives that compel the viewer to take their time looking. Employing compositional approaches akin to 19th- and 20th-century American and European paintings, Fowler references family, friends, and himself in works that are at once universal and deeply personal.

 

Fowler’s fall 2019 solo exhibition at SAM will be curated by Sandra Jackson-Dumont, Frederick P. and Sandra P. Rose Chairman of Education at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and SAM’s former Deputy Director for Education and Public Programs/Adjunct Curator in Modern and Contemporary Art. “I am thrilled to see what Aaron dreams up for his installation at SAM,” says Jackson-Dumont. “Aaron Fowler’s sculptural assemblages are infused with personal meaning while calling attention to a range of complex concerns, issues, and ideas—not the least of which include American history, identity issues, Black experiences, and hip hop. His monumental mixed-media work will consume the galleries, but moreover it will take over viewers’ hearts and minds.”

 

AARON FOWLER

 

Aaron Fowler (b. 1988; St. Louis, MO) received his MFA from Yale University School of Art in 2014 and his BFA from the Pennsylvania Academy Fine Arts in 2011. He was an artist-in-residence at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in 2014 and was the recipient of the Rema Host Mann Foundation Emerging Artist Grant in 2015. Fowler has exhibited throughout the United States and abroad, including shows at Saatchi Gallery, SCAD Museum of Art, The Rubell Family Collection, Beeler Gallery, Columbus College of Art and Design (solo), Diane Rosenstein Gallery (solo), and the Studio Museum in Harlem. He lives and works in Harlem, Los Angeles, and St. Louis. For more information, visit aaronfowler.art.

Nominations are requested from an anonymous and rotating national roster of highly regarded artists, curators, scholars, and arts leaders. A selected group of leading contemporary art curators and a SAM representative then select an award winner from the list of nominees. Funding for the prize is provided by the Gwendolyn Knight and Jacob Lawrence Endowment and the Jacob and Gwendolyn Knight Lawrence Foundation.

ABOUT SEATTLE ART MUSEUM 

As the leading visual art institution in the Pacific Northwest, SAM draws on its global collections, powerful exhibitions, and dynamic programs to provide unique educational resources benefiting the Seattle region, the Pacific Northwest, and beyond. SAM was founded in 1933 with a focus on Asian art. By the late 1980s the museum had outgrown its original home, and in 1991 a new 155,000-square-foot downtown building, designed by Venturi, Scott Brown & Associates, opened to the public. The 1933 building was renovated and reopened as the Asian Art Museum in 1994. SAM’s desire to further serve its community was realized in 2007 with the opening of two stunning new facilities: the nine-acre Olympic Sculpture Park (designed by Weiss/Manfredi Architects)—a “museum without walls,” free and open to all—and the Allied Works Architecture designed 118,000-square-foot expansion of its main, downtown location, including 232,000 square feet of additional space built for future expansion. The Olympic Sculpture Park and SAM’s downtown expansion celebrated their tenth anniversary in 2017.

 

From a strong foundation of Asian art to noteworthy collections of African and Oceanic art, Northwest Coast Native American art, European and American art, and modern and contemporary art, the strength of SAM’s collection of approximately 25,000 objects lies in its diversity of media, cultures, and time periods.
