College and Career: Henry Street and Bronx Regional Subject The topic of the resource Ross, Suzanne Description An account of the resource In this recording, part of a larger video memoir project, lifetime activist and educator Suzanne Ross speaks about her time as a psychologist at Henry Street Settlement and at Bronx Regional. From Suzanne: "After having spent five years underground, I now resumed my open identity and got a job as the school psychologist at the Henry Street School for Learning Disabled and Emotionally Disturbed Students (part of the prestigious Henry Street Settlement on the Lower East Side of Manhattan). The school was not well organized, and was located in the basement of a housing project. Though some teachers were very dedicated and effective, the mental health services were inadequate for the population, and I felt the students were underserved. I came into conflict with the administration, and was fired when I refused to have one of its students thrown out, something that could not happen without my signature. I fought the exclusion of the student, and when she was reinstated as a result of my reporting the school to the proper agencies, I was fired. A legal battle ensued, with my representation by the New York Civil Liberties Union, and a dramatic student struggle, I won a significant legal battle. The school was subsequently closed. When my husband and I separated, I was suddenly faced with a low income, a 5 year old daughter, and the need to provide my child not only with a roof over her head, but education, health care, etc. The only place I could think of to obtain all these quickly was the Board of Education. I got a job immediately as a school psychologist and began working the following Monday. Bored and angry at the limitations of the Board of Ed’s bureaucracy and repressiveness and knowing that I would soon probably be fired, I chose to transfer to a less bureaucratic part of the Board of Ed. I got a job at an alternative high school, meant for students who had dropped out of school or had been kicked out and were trying to return. I loved teaching these kids but resumed my pattern of raising “uncomfortable” questions. The school was run by progressive white educators, mostly former members of the Communist Party. No sooner was I hired that the principal told me of a yearly trip they sponsored for select students, trips to where? To Israel! I was shocked and immediately questioned the validity of such a trip. The principal told me not to worry, they went to the “good parts of Israel”. I promptly called a Palestinian activist friend, to proceed on getting this part of the curriculum cancelled. Another confrontation with the school focused on a visit I arranged with Dhoruba Bin-Wahad I was accused of undermining education as the students, (2/3 of whom were regularly truant) did not want to return to their regular class that day because they were so immersed in the subject of the visit. Shortly after that incident I was transferred out of the school, again rushed out and told never to come back. The students were told I had gotten a better job!"

College and Career: Time at Lehman, Part 4 Subject The topic of the resource Ross, Suzanne Description An account of the resource In this recording, part of a larger video memoir project, lifetime activist and educator Suzanne Ross speaks about her time teaching at Lehman College in the late 1960s and early 1970s, part 4 of 4. From Suzanne: "After the Columbia experience, I began teaching at Lehman College, and spent the next five years completely immersed in radicalizing the students I worked with, and disrupting regular activities at the college. The focus was on demanding that attention be paid to the racism on campus in hiring, firing, and curriculum, and on opposing the war in Vietnam, insisting that the college take an active role in addressing the horrors of that war. I left Lehman, having been rejected for tenure, the simplest way to fire faculty. After a long battle by the students, along with many prestigious supporters such the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU), Congresswoman Bella Abzug, Professor Martin Duberman and many college teachers across New York City, we lost the battle to reinstate me. I did not want to continue the union appeal and the NYCLU appeal as they both involved considerable bureaucratic effort and I was more interested in street and movement action. I, therefore, instead, went underground with Weather."

I became profoundly radicalized, by the two issues which the students were fighting about: the “Apartheid” gym scheduled to be built in Morningside Park, as part of the Columbia gentrification plan, and the IDA research being conducted at Columbia which was part of the overall Vietnam War effort that Columbia was secretly aiding.

College and Career: Elmhurst, Part 2 Subject The topic of the resource Ross, Suzanne Description An account of the resource In this recording, part of a larger video memoir project, lifetime activist and educator Suzanne Ross speaks more about her time as a psychologist at Elmhurst, part 2 of 2. From Suzanne: "My first job as a psychologist was on the locked psychiatric adolescent wards of a city hospital. It was an encounter with the real world as it represented the majority of the population—poor, significantly people of color, and seemingly powerless members of this society. I was shocked by the indifference and cruelty of the public institutions with this population. My dream had been to help people, especially young people, in their struggle to grow up in this society. This society’s goal, on the other hand, for the young people was to have them adjust to society’s expectations and to conform to them regardless of any consideration of the young people’s hopes and dreams. I first took on the challenge of the negative agenda of the institution.

College and Career: Elmhurst, Part 1 Subject The topic of the resource Ross, Suzanne Description An account of the resource In this recording, part of a larger video memoir project, lifetime activist and educator Suzanne Ross speaks more about her time as a psychologist at Elmhurst, part 1 of 2. From Suzanne: "My first job as a psychologist was on the locked psychiatric adolescent wards of a city hospital. It was an encounter with the real world as it represented the majority of the population—poor, significantly people of color, and seemingly powerless members of this society. I was shocked by the indifference and cruelty of the public institutions with this population. My dream had been to help people, especially young people, in their struggle to grow up in this society. This society’s goal, on the other hand, for the young people was to have them adjust to society’s expectations and to conform to them regardless of any consideration of the young people’s hopes and dreams. I first took on the challenge of the negative agenda of the institution. I fought for the young people’s rights, I acknowledged the enormous challenge before them, and affirmed the reality of their experiences. I recognized that the challenges were too systemic and huge and I increasingly focused on the destructiveness of this society, politically and psychologically, trying to find a way to make my contribution with the opportunities I had."

Family History and Childhood: Developing Strength and Thinking Subject The topic of the resource Ross, Suzanne Description An account of the resource In this recording, part of a larger video memoir project, lifetime activist and educator Suzanne Ross reflects on what has been significant for her development of strength and dialectical thinking throughout her life—from her time on the kibbutz in Palestine to her adventures with dialectical thinking as an adult and political activist. From Suzanne: "Born in 1937 living with an extended family on maternal and paternal sides in Antwerp Belgium. By 1940 the Nazis invade and most of the family tried and even succeeded in leaving. My parents, brother, and I along with different aunts, uncles, and cousins parted ways with some headed for Portugal, some for Palestine, and other remaining in France or Belgium. Traveling for about a year from France to Spain to North Africa, to Portugal and eventually Mozambique, we found a haven in Mozambique for three years, until the colonial power (Portugal) gave us a deadline by which we had to leave. This was now 1944 and we were able to go to Palestine where we remained for a year before we were able to get the visa we needed to go to the US, my parents’ dream. We arrived in the US on December 25, 1945 and soon became part of an orthodox Jewish community in Queens, Far Rockaway. My brother and I attended the Yeshiva, I loved the chaos of this school, with the students able to challenge the adults, and impose a certain student power. In addition to the students ability to disrupt regular routines, the Hebrew education was excellent, especially the training in Talmudic logic and debate which served me in good stead for many subsequent decades of schooling. By the time I went to public high school I was increasingly losing interest in religion and focused more and more on intellectual interests and wanting to go to an elite college."

Family History and Childhood: Life on the Kibbutz Subject The topic of the resource Ross, Suzanne Description An account of the resource In this recording, part of a larger video memoir project, lifetime activist and educator Suzanne Ross narrates her time on a kibbutz in Palestine between 1944 and 1945. From Suzanne: "Born in 1937 living with an extended family on maternal and paternal sides in Antwerp Belgium. By 1940 the Nazis invade and most of the family tried and even succeeded in leaving. My parents, brother, and I along with different aunts, uncles, and cousins parted ways with some headed for Portugal, some for Palestine, and other remaining in France or Belgium. Traveling for about a year from France to Spain to North Africa, to Portugal and eventually Mozambique, we found a haven in Mozambique for three years, until the colonial power (Portugal) gave us a deadline by which we had to leave. This was now 1944 and we were able to go to Palestine where we remained for a year before we were able to get the visa we needed to go to the US, my parents’ dream. We arrived in the US on December 25, 1945 and soon became part of an orthodox Jewish community in Queens, Far Rockaway. My brother and I attended the Yeshiva, I loved the chaos of this school, with the students able to challenge the adults, and impose a certain student power. In addition to the students ability to disrupt regular routines, the Hebrew education was excellent, especially the training in Talmudic logic and debate which served me in good stead for many subsequent decades of schooling. By the time I went to public high school I was increasingly losing interest in religion and focused more and more on intellectual interests and wanting to go to an elite college."
