Our Children
At New Horizons we view children as:
… competent
… curious
… citizens
… creative
… collaborators and co-constructors
… communicators
… celebrators
"We have worked this out together – we are not doing one plan with one person, but we make a big plan with lots of people. If a person has a plan and we all agree, then that is what we are doing. We work out our problems, not with the teachers, if we can sort it out we sort it out … sometimes it is with the teachers.
One person argues with another and then another person says 'yes, that is a good idea'… so we are having a conversation. We talk about what we are doing. You have to have an idea, you just talk with the other children, like what we are doing now, and then if everybody talks about it and if lots of people like the idea then we do that!
We all came up with this idea together!"
Jack B 4 yrs, Trilby 4 yrs, Evie H 5 yrs, Madelyn 4 yrs, Evie LB 4 yrs
"We have a block room, a classroom and a dark room. In the block room we can do building and in the light room we do building too. The light room is dark and it has lights, like sparkly ones that go around. It has tables to build on, those tables have lights on them. They are light tables. We have an inquiry room where we talk about stuff."
Evie G 4 yrs, Archie K 4 yrs, Maggie 5 yrs
"In the art room we paint and draw. There is a water play room, there are sea animals, crocodiles, sharks, fish and whales. There is water in the tubs and we can play in there, but you can't put your body in there.
In the classroom we relax and we have meetings. We read stories and we play and sometimes we have paintings in the classroom. We have a waving window too! It is to wave to your parents when they go."
Sophie J 5 yrs, Pepi 4 yrs, Posy 5 yrs
"We don't have to rush … we never need to rush here."
Teddy & Frida 4 yrs
"When I first started I remember Annabelle, Evie and Madelyn, Vivienne and Trilby. You might say 'would you like to play with me?', and then they will say 'yes'…."
George 4 yrs
"If someone says 'no' you can say 'that is ok, I can play with someone else'. Instead of the teacher working it out you can do that by your self."
Annabelle 5 yrs
"If you like to play with someone, then you can ask them to come and play with you. You can have more than one friend, you can have, ummmm, maybe nine friends."
Anneliese 5 yrs
"Sometimes people don't play together, but they are still friends. We are still friends even though we don't play together."
Ari 4 yrs

Perched on a stool center stage with a cloth covered table to his left upon which rests a bottle of water and a glass of pale orange liquid while light glints off bracelets, rings and an earring as he smooths back long curling locks and an equally long goatee, he waits. He cuts a fine figure in a sleek grey suit and a snowy white shirt as he pauses to let the crowd settle. There's a brief moment of anticipation as we wait like the eager, greedy souls we all know we are. We wait for him to cajole us, romance us and entrance us with a voice that's equal parts ferocious and aches of a thousand sorrows. That voice belongs to El Cigala.
Stepping away from his familiar flamenco fare, Diego El Cigala's current salsa project and songbook from Indestructible takes fans on musical landscape from El Cigala's native Spain to his adoptive home in the Dominican Republic to Puerto Rico, Cuba and Colombia, garnering a whole new enthusiastic fan base.
Backed by a razor-sharp salsa group that includes pianist Jaime Calabuch, trumpeters Cristian David Muñoz and Edison Muñoz, trombonists Richard Stella and Bernardo Aguirre, percussionist Denilson Ibarguen, timbalero Diego Mayorga, bassist Julio Valdes and backing vocalists Diego Galindo and Andres Gonzales, El Cigala takes fans through salsa favorites, emotive ballads and a few more intimate songs with only piano to accompany El Cigala's roughed over vocals.
Tapping, clapping and finger snapping his way through the Duke Performances Saturday, March 31st concert at Durham's Carolina Theatre, El Cigala and band had the joint jumping. Fans get doses of "Moreno Soy," "Indestructible," "Hacha y Machete" and "El Raton," as well as some nicely done romantic songs, but I think the more intimate songs with just pianist were perhaps my favorite bits and those places where El Cigala's voice really comes through in fine flamenco jazz fashion. But then again it's El Cigala and any song is worth the price.

A helipad planned for George Washington University Hospital advanced last week when Foggy Bottom's advisory neighborhood commission supported the proposal in a narrow 3-2 vote.
A 1987 public nuisance law barred hospitals from building new heliports in D.C.'s residential neighborhoods, including Foggy Bottom. But the hospital at 900 23rd St. NW has been lobbying for a change, and Babak Sarani, George Washington's director of trauma and acute care surgery, said multiple D.C. Council members have already indicated their support.
The District has one Level I trauma center with a helipad: MedStar Washington Hospital Center in Ward 5. Patients coming by helicopter to George Washington must land in Southwest and travel the rest of the way in an ambulance — which can take up to 45 minutes.
"Sirens cannot part the seas of traffic," Sarani said. "Once you're in gridlock, you're in gridlock. … If someone's having a stroke or a heart attack, they're done for."
After several months of deliberation, Advisory Neighborhood Commission 2A (Foggy Bottom, West End) reached a compromise with the hospital — intended to balance the hospital's desire to receive emergency patients quickly against community concerns about helicopter noise and safety.
The agreement mandates that the helipad can receive only one helicopter at a time; only 175 helicopter trips per year will serve the helipad, aside from mass-casualty events; aircraft cannot exceed 15,000 pounds; the helipad cannot have a refueling station; the hospital cannot build more than one helipad; and a helicopter cannot idle on the pad. The helipad is expected to open by next September if all goes to plan, Sarani said.
ANC 2A member Florence Harmon was one of the commission's opponents of the helipad compromise, expressing concerns about enforcing the agreement. "We've got all these people here who want protection, but this is just a leap of faith," Harmon said at ANC 2A's Sept. 7 meeting.
Sarani said that even absent the agreement, practical considerations would limit the hospital's helipad use. "Even if we wanted to land helicopters all day, all night, we literally would not be able to accept that flight, because there's no place to put the person," Sarani said.

A source had told The Times of India, "Shweta Tiwari has registered a case of molestation against Abhinav Kohli. He would make obscene comments about her daughter and even show her obscene videos. He was arrested under Sections 509, 354 (a), 323, 504, 506 of the IPC and 67-A of the IT Act on Sunday, and produced before the court yesterday."
Now, while talking to the entertainment portal, Abhinav's mother broke her silence about the whole issue. She stated, "We want things to get better between my son and Shweta Tiwari. We want to do it for our child Reyaansh as he is too young and I don't want him to get mentally disturbed.
Abhinav has been doing a lot for his kids and we don't want to affect the kid's psyche. He is too young. The truth will one day come out how much my son Abhinav has sacrificed for both his kids."
She further said, "Abhinav and Shweta have been not been on good terms with each other, for the last two years, but Abhinav tried to sort out things. He wanted to live with Shweta as Reyaash was too young and it was his dream to live under one roof with both his kids. However, things did not work out between them."
Abhinav's mother concluded by saying, "Abhinav took care of Palak since she was a kid and Raja Chaudhary had left her. Even while she was in the Bigg Boss house and her mom had to travel to her native place, Abhinav was there to take care of Palak. From her school admission, attending parents meeting in school, to tying her school laces, he has done everything.
They have conveniently forgotten everything and putting such false and dirty allegations against him just because they want to get rid of him. She wanted to divorce him. I don't want to talk about it further."

Shake and Vape Explained
Shake and Vape FAQ
Why shake and vape?
Shake and vape products were developed and adopted by many companies in response to the TPD. The TPD, amongst other things, limits the size of bottle in which eliquid containing nicotine can be sold and also increases manufacturing costs.
By using shake and vape products the customer can still get their hands on large amounts of eliquid without breaking the bank or the law.
What are the advantages of shake and vape products
- No need to carry more than one bottle around
- Cheaper, per ml, than most 10ml bottles currently on the market
- More choice for the customer
- Better for the environment
How does it all work?
Customers are able to buy large bottles of flavoured nicotine free eliquid, which can then be mixed to the customers required strength. The customer can easily do this by adding the correct number of shots, sold separately, to the larger bottle.
What is a shortfill bottle?
Shortfill bottles contain nicotine free liquid that can be used in electronic cigarettes. The bottles are called shortfills as they normally come in a bottle that has free space so it can easily be topped up with nicotine shots. The flavouring inside them have been tweaked to account for nicotine shots being added by the customer so it tastes great after mixing.
What is a nicotine shot?
Nicotine shots are 10ml bottles of flavourless eliquid that contain nicotine. The nicotine shots have been measured out for you, the only thing you need to do is pop off the top, pour the entire contents into your shortfill bottle, and repeat if you require more than one.
Is mixing my liquid complicated?
The short answer is no, it is extremely easy to use. There is no complicated mathematics or weighing involved and cannot be made any easier. Customers simply add the correct amount of nicotine shots to their shortfill bottles, shake, and they are good to go.
How many shots should I add?
Shortfills can vary by brand so on every shortfill product page there is a section that explains how many shots you need for the customers required strength.
Can I vape shortfill bottles without the shots?
Yes you can, it is completely safe to vape without adding any nicotine shots. All of our shortfill bottles have been specially formulated to taste the best when nicotine shots have been added and shaken so without adding shots first the liquid will taste strong.
Can I vape the nicotine shots alone?
The nicotine shots are perfectly safe to vape as normal in any device but lack any kind of flavour.
Can I add more nicotine shots to increase the strength?
Yes, but there comes a point where adding more shots doesn't raise the strength as much as it initially did. Please be aware, if you have a 50ml shortfill and add one 18mg nicotine shot you can achieve a 3mg, adding another will not take the strength to 6mg.
How long do I need to wait before I can vape it?
All liquids will taste better after waiting a few days for the liquid to settle, otherwise known as steeping but our shake and vape products have been formulated so that they can be used immediately after shaking.
Are shake and vape products a greener alternative?
Shortfill bottles drastically reduce the amount of plastic waste making its way to the landfill. Couple this with reduced transport costs and the impact of choosing these products is quite substantial compared to exclusively buying liquid in 10ml bottles.

AFC Bournemouth recorded an excellent 3-0 win at the home of Premier League champions Chelsea this evening.
Second half goals from Callum Wilson, Junior Stanislas and Nathan Ake made for a memorable night at Stamford Bridge, as the Cherries remain unbeaten in the Premier League since Christmas.
The result also means that the Cherries have beaten the reigning Premier League champions in each of the club's three top flight campaigns.
The Cherries took the lead after 51 minutes of football. Wilson stole the ball in the Chelsea half, before playing a one-two with Ibe, who slot the striker in neatly to finish beyond Courtois. With the game barely restarted, Howe's players were high in confidence and Lewis Cook took advantage of a nicely fallen ball, volleying it first time just over the bar.
A couple of Chelsea chances came and went, with Hazard ruled offside and Cherries 'keeper Asmir Begovic called into action on more than one occasion.
But, the Cherries held their cool and their patience paid off once more.
Wilson and Stanislas combined excellently on the left, with the winger played through one-one-one against Courtois, making no mistake to slot home for 2-0.
With Howe's side buoyed, there was no stopping the visitors at Stamford Bridge and a third duly followed.
A Cherries corner was swung in and cleared as far as Stanislas on the edge of the box, whose low shot was diverted in by ex-Chelsea defender Ake from six yards out.

The Mt. Fuji Atami Film & VR Festival provides the perfect place for independent filmmakers and virtual reality creators to show their talents and art to the Japanese as well as people from around the world. The Mt. Fuji – Atami Film & VR Festival aspires to become Japan's premiere, world-class film and virtual reality festival. We embrace ideas and innovation with creativity and we give independent directors a real competition to showcase their films and virtual reality projects to audiences who appreciate and love independent cinema.
Our categories include:
*Narrative Feature
*Narrative Short
*Documentary Feature
*Narrative Short Documentary
*Short Animation
*Music Videos
*Virtual Reality and New Media
Because of our partners. award winners and nominated films are eligible for nationwide theatrical distribution, DVD distribution and TV broadcasting in Japan. Awards also are given to Virtual Reality winners.
The Mt. Fuji – Atami Film & VR Festival (MFAFF) is an annual film festival meant to showcase innovative independent cinema and new virtual reality from around the world by up-and-coming artists. As well as award-winning works selected by our sister festival in Europe: The ECU European Independent Film Festival and advisory from The Busan International Film Festival.
MFAFF hopes to be the voice and representation for films with a unique voice and message, regardless of how low the budget might be.
We are aiming to inspire, motivate and award new talent with a revitalized film festival that all of Japan can be proud of.
The Mt. Fuji – Atami Film & VR Festival accepts all forms and genres: short films, medium length films, feature films, drama, experimental, comedy, horror, slow cinema, science fiction, fantasy, animation, documentary and we allow for special prizes for students and films shot in Atami. We also have a special Virtual Reality center to showcase new Virtual Reality projects and creators.
We aspire to become Japan's most famous and successful film and Virtual Reality festival.
June is a fantastic time for the sea-side resort town of Atami. It's an exciting time as that's when we showcase about 50 of the World's very best independent films. Although MFAFF emphasizes talent from all over the world, it also recognizes the works and art of local filmmakers with several categories allocated to them.
The first Mt. Fuji – Atami Film & VR Festival will take place beginning 28 June ~ 1 July, 2018 in Atami, Japan (Just 40 minutes from Tokyo by bullet train).
MFAFF intends to help the careers of all independent filmmakers, actors, DPs, editors, screenwriters and intends to be firmly established as Japan's first, foremost and eminent film and virtual reality festivals.
MFAFF isn't just all about screening a fabulous list of new and exciting films over its four-day event. There are also professional workshops led by experts in the industry, Q&A's held with the attending filmmakers after every screening session and a chance to network with fellow filmmakers, producers, agents, industry representatives, prospective film buyers and, of course, the cinema-loving public.
Above all, we are proud to welcome you all to Atami, Japan and our filmmakers' festival!

Thanks too, to all of her friends that are praying for her!

I have seen into a very dark American future, and I am frightened.
It was billed as a gun violence forum – by the Stow Democrats. It was a totally one-sided barrage of propaganda, half-truths, outright lies, served with a total disregard to our US Constitution. It wasn't just our 2nd Amendment under attack. Local Acton boy State Senator Jamie-are-you-gay Eldridge served as 'moderator' and master of ceremonies.
The only words we were allowed to speak [4 Stow cops in the back] were the Pledge.
After that, from James Cohen – DTC chair – to a long-winded preacher, through John Rosenthal [Stop Handgun Violence], Angus McQuilkin [long-time anti-gun nut], and Brockton state rep Michael Brady, it was 2 long hours of 'blame guns, blame the NRA, blame gun manufactures'. Gun manufactures were portrayed as "glad when mass shootings occur …because every time gun sales go up".
When you hear somebody like Rosenthal claim to own guns and go duck hunting, – you know they're trying to trample the 2nd Amendment. Our founders weren't thinking about duck hunting when they drafted the 2nd, – they were thinking of an overbearing central government.
Jim Wallace of GOAL had been invited, but called in sick. They made ZERO effort to see if anyone wanted to represent responsible gun owners.
Sitting there and not jumping up may have been the hardest thing I've done in years. When Brady and Eldridge began to discuss having police check private homes for compliance with gun safety laws – a clear violation of our 4th Amendment – several voices shouted out behind me. Eldridge would entertain no verbal comments or questions.
Written questions were 'allowed', but of the 40-50 I saw handed in, – JamieBoy was cherry-picking them. The evening was 100% controlled. No opposing or constitutional voices were allowed. It was like watching a Nazi rally in 1932.
Eldridge is fast becoming one of the most dangerous 'progressives' in the state. He was bullied as a child, – now enjoys power and bullying others.
The anti-gun folks who came were thrilled with what they heard. They've never been threatened or scared – they quite willing to give up guns they don't own, – 'to keep kids safe'.
They haven't learned that that's exactly the ploy Hitler used!
If they really want to 'keep kids safe' – they'll put an end to the 1,300,000 abortions performed each year here. But what they're really after is government control of our lives – at gunpoint!

This action might not be possible to undo. Are you sure you want to continue?
Everyone wants that special someone....
Annie Higgins has given up on love: she's too busy trying to get her own business off the ground. Infuriated by the advertising agency across the hall making fun of her job, Annie accepts their crazy challenge—to make a random stranger Instagram-famous in just 30 days.
And even when they choose Dr Samuel Page PhD, historian and hater of social media, as her target, Annie's determined to win the bet—whether Sam likes it or not.
But getting to know Sam means getting to know more about herself. And before the 30 days are out, Annie has to make a decision about what's really important....
Funny, real and heart-meltingly romantic, Annie and Sam's story is My Fair Lady for the social media age—and the perfect summer listen.

For once a sizeable group of the President's supporters are not prepared to take Bush's word that all will turn out O.K., that they should just trust him. Bush was showing "stunning arrogance," declared Ann Coulter, to think he could just pick anyone he liked. "The President is not supposed to be nominating his personal lawyer for a job on the United States Supreme Court," she said. "You don't have your personal accountant replace Alan Greenspan. It's embarrassing to hear people describe this as if this is the best woman Bush could get." Veteran conservative activist Paul Weyrich saw insult in the assumption that Bush's followers wouldn't dare question his choice. "They are so used to conservatives falling in line, rolling over and playing dead–that's what they expected," he said.
This story puts an interesting perspective on the President's nomination of Harriet Miers for the Supreme Court. Click the headline for a good read.

Georgetown University students are on a hunger strike for higher campus worker wages. Sacrificing yourself for other people is a noble and self-less thing to do. Let's read more about their hunger strike:
Diane Foglizzo, a brown-haired, strong-willed senior, is on the sixth day of her hunger strike. She said she's lost 10 pounds on a meager diet of water and orange juice. Another student activist, weakened by hunger, was rushed to the hospital Saturday.
A hunger strike is not a "diet". You only drink water and that's it. Orange juice has a shitload of glucose, which is what your body consumes its organs and muscles for during a real hunger strike. So really she's on a juice diet that is popular every few years. I knew students of ultra-rich parents couldn't sacrifice themselves completely for someone else. That said I better get back to making sure I don't sacrifice for anyone but myself.

Failed asylum seeking family
If you have children under the age of 18 and your claim for asylum is rejected, the UK Border Agency will continue to support you and provide you with accommodation.
The accommodation and support you receive will continue until one of the following happens:
- all of your children turn 18, or
- you leave the UK for your home country.
You will not be counted as having children under the age of 18 if your child was born more than 21 days after your claim for asylum failed. If you are in this situation then you should visit your local council, as it will have a duty to provide you and your family with support and housing until you can leave the country.
For advice on accessing support after your claim for asylum has been rejected you should contact the UK Border Agency or the Scottish Refugee Council as soon as you possible.

'Incarceration Altars', a collaboration between artist Bernie Masterson and residents of Mountjoy Prison Campus, investigates the relationship between person, place and object through a series of images and prisoners' narratives.
The art project aims to contextualise the different worlds of prison identity and private identity. Objects provide links to those identities and are also used to reflect on other themes such as 'mourning and memory,' 'transition and passage,' 'meditation and new vision,' and how they serve as a marker in a significant life situation such as incarceration. This project was awarded by the Grangegorman Development Agency under Pathway 2 Round 3 of the Per Cent Scheme, and was partnered by the Irish Prison Service and the City of Dublin ETB. The project was first launched by Professor Ciaran Benson the chair of the Public Art Working Group on the 11th October in the DIT College in Grangegorman. It is planned for the installation to tour to other venues in 2018. Updates regarding those venues and dates will be posted here on the News page.

An exhibition of paintings by five prominent Cill Rialaig Artists: Elizabeth Cope, Bernie Masterson, John Philip Murray, Dorothy Smith and Niall Wright at the Cill Rialaig Arts Centre Siopa Chill Rialaig Dun Geagan, Ballinskelligs, Co. Kerry until May 11, 2011
For more than 18 years, the Cill Rialaig Project has provided the rare experience to visiting artists of living in a restored pre-famine era village where they work uninterrupted except by the stunning surrounding landscape.
This exhibition features five prominent artists who visited Cill Rialaig early in its history and returned again several years later. Each addresses issues of landscape in different ways.
Elizabeth Cope is a colourist, and paints domesticated gardens with vibrant energy.
Bernie Masterson explores the constantly changing light, weather and textures of the wild Irish landscape. For many years, John Philip Murray has been interested in early Italian Renaissance painting, and melds interior and exterior spaces in his work. Dorothy Smith studies the evocative shadows and structures of agricultural buildings. Niall Wright taps into the experience of "soft," misty weather and the borders between land, sky and water.
The Cill Rialaig Arts Centre is in Dun Geagan village near Ballinskelligs on the Skellig Ring road outside of Waterville and Cahersiveen, Co. Kerry. In the spring, it is on Saturday and Sunday from 11 to 5, except for the Easter and May Bank Holiday weekends when it will be open Thursday to Monday from 11 to 6.

Video link to Drawing on the Body
Press Release:
The artist Bernie Masterson is synonymous with landscape and exploration of the natural environment. Her latest collection of paintings still relates to mapping, but the subject in question addresses physical geography of a very different nature. The theme of the new work emerged serendipitously from her role as a carer for her mother, Jeannie Masterson. It was a comment she made about her skin that prompted her artist-daughter to interpret these areas, generating a process that was to gain its own momentum.
During the four years that the painter was engaged in the creation of this body of work, she successfully developed a two step approach. The initial collection of oil drawings deals primarily with the surface of the skin and its evolution over the years. The second part of the series melded the structural elements of medical record with the memories evoked by photographic media. The combined effect of the collection forms a narrative that gives visual expression to a vibrant life, becoming effectively a biography in paint.
The unique aspect of these works is that this series is the product of a collaborative effort between mother and daughter. (Dr Maebh O Regan Ph.D in Visual Culture)
The exhibition runs until 8th May

More evacuation centres have opened in Fiji to cope with the estimated four thousand people now displaced by Cyclone Mick.
Monday's tropical storm is believed to have caused five deaths.
The deputy representative for UNICEF in the Pacific, Tim Sutton, says flood waters in Nausori, in the south-east of Viti Levu, have ruined crops in an area already flooded in January.
Mr Sutton says damage is widespread.
"We know that the Yasawa Mamanuca in the West, those are the offshore islands. Lautoka and Ba and two big cities on the northwest coast of Viti Levu, the main island. And the area through Pacific harbour, Suva, Nausori in the southeast corner of Viti Levu particularly hard hit."
Tim Sutton says the polluted flood waters in Nausori are of particular concern to medical staff in temperatures of up to 33 degrees.

Doray Minerals Ltd's (ASX:DRM) shares were trading 7.5% higher intra-day after revealing high-grade gold and copper results from a drilling program at its new Da Vinci discovery.
The Da Vinci discovery is located immediately north of the company's producing Deflector gold-copper mine in Western Australia.
Highlight assay results from the latest program include:
- 10.4 metres at 45.2 g/t gold and 0.7% copper from 226 metres; and
- 1.4 metres at 8.5 g/t gold and 0.7% copper from 143.5 metres.
Importantly, the pattern of mineralisation discovered is similar to the main Deflector ore system.
The results from the new drill holes have demonstrated at least 120 metres of continuity of the high grade mineralisation that is open along strike and at depth.
Doray has commenced drilling on a new deeper diamond drill hole, a further 80 metres north along strike.
In addition, reverse circulation drilling is continuing on the Da Vinci prospect to test the strike extent of the system and to analyse near surface potential.
Doray had a combined annual production of circa 105,000 ounces gold and 4,700 tonnes copper from the Deflector and Andy Well projects for the financial year ended June 30, 2017.

at the Hermitage, ca. 1867
"Image Courtesy of The Hermitage"
Photo by Carl Giers
Most visitors who tour the Hermitage outside Nashville, Tennessee come to the historic site because it is the home of Andrew Jackson, the seventh president of the United States. Hermitage Archaeology Director Kevin Bartoy reminds us, however, that the plantation was also home to over 200 enslaved people. Since those slaves left no written records ongoing archaeological surveys allow a glimpse into the lives they led at Tennessee's most famous plantation.
Unremarked upon by Andrew Jackson or visitors to The Hermitage during Jackson's time, the lives forged by the enslaved derived from cultural traditions of their African ancestors, but became uniquely "African American" on the landscape of this plantation. As in many enslaved communities throughout the American South, people belonging to unique African cultures and kingdoms, speaking unique African languages, and practicing unique African belief systems were forcibly brought together as enslaved laborers. But, these individuals exhibited personal choice and resilience in building new cultures, belief systems, and communities based in their shared heritage, experience, and status.
Although the enslaved community of The Hermitage left behind few written records of their experience, their lives can be read in remains left in the ground. Pieces of other people's garbage seldom "speak" in the dramatic fashion of a diary or letter, but, for those who left no written record, these few objects allow archaeologists to interpret some aspects of their complex lives. As with all histories, written and archaeological, "facts" are few and incomplete, and we must develop interpretations to understand past events.
Emblematic of the limits of our understanding, three artifacts recovered at The Hermitage have also become emblems of Hermitage archaeology as a whole. Called "fist charms" by the initial Hermitage archaeologists who discovered the first of these artifacts in the 1970s, these small stamped brass objects were initially used as hook-and-eye closures for clothing. Yet, the symbolism of a clenched fist may have given these simple artifacts yet another life. Three of these artifacts have been recovered at The Hermitage, two more have been discovered elsewhere in Tennessee, one has been found at Thomas Jefferson's Poplar Forest in Virginia, and three have been uncovered in Maryland.
In trying to interpret the meaning of these objects, archaeologists first looked towards a spiritual significance for the finds. Early arguments suggested that these objects may be related to the "hand of Fatima" and possibly to the Islamic beliefs brought with their ancestors in the Slave Trade. Others argued that these objects were related to figas or milagros found in Latin American cultures and thought to convey good luck upon the wearer. Still others argued that the objects may form the "cross" of the Bakongo cosmogram and thus show a continuity with an African belief system. While each argument was plausible, without further evidence, it was impossible to give a greater weight to any of them.
With these previous interpretations in mind, I have looked to find more evidence in the context of these finds to provide a stronger argument. The two identical "fist charms" that were found at The Hermitage, which are identical to the others found throughout the Upper South and Middle Atlantic, have a decorative element attaching the wrists of the fist to the edge of the charm. This element appears to be a stylized chain. Thus, this is not just a clenched fist, but it is a clenched fist that is also shackled. Given the size of the artifact, which is too small to be noticed without knowing what you are looking at, and that these have only been recovered in enslaved spaces in states that border the line between slave and free, it may be argued that these objects were active signaling devices being worn by the enslaved to communicate to like-minded people as to their beliefs in a resistance movement or abolitionist ideas.
