Knights lead African American Day Parade

Uniondale High’s show-style band kicks off celebration with energy and pride

The unmistakable sound of Uniondale High School’s Marching Knights led the 56th African American Day Parade in Harlem on Sept. 21, marking the district band’s first time at the front of the procession and its fifth year of participation in one of the most prominent celebrations of African American culture in the country.

The parade, which began in 1968 and is held every third Sunday in September, was livestreamed on WABC-TV Channel 7. It featured R&B music, the waving of African flags and a large, enthusiastic crowd.

Along with a variety of schools and organizations, the borough presidents of the Bronx and Manhattan, Vanessa Gibson and Mark Levine, Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark and members of the City Council were among the marchers.

Amaya Grier, 17, a senior at Uniondale High and the Marching Knights’ drum major, said the parade flew by for the

musicians.

“We were all pretty proud of our performance — it’s the first time we had such a big turnout,” Grier said. “Afterwards we were all like, this is going to be a great school year, especially because it’s the first parade of the season.”

More than 100 Uniondale students — including musicians, members of the kickline and flag bearers — marched up Seventh Avenue — also known as Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard — from 111th to 137th street, and gave a performance that many in the crowd won’t soon forget. Spectators lined the parade route, cheering and filming on their phones as the band passed.

The Uniondale band performs “show style” — a Southern-inspired, high-energy style of marching that enhances R&B hits with horn swings and other coordinated movements. For the incoming freshmen, the participation, energy and excitement of the crowd was something brand new.

“I think a lot of them were amazed at the crowd participation and the energy,”

Kellenberg H.S. welcomes four-legged friends

Kellenberg’s canine companions supported by Marianist funds

By STACY DRIKS sdriks@liherald.com

The Kellenberg Phoenix, Kellenberg Memorial High School’s student newspaper, once joked that the “Kellenberg dogs” might be one of the biggest reasons students choose the Catholic school.

Around its Uniondale campus, it’s perfectly normal for a dog to wander into a classroom with its handler — and many would say the dogs are really the ones in charge. Currently there are five dogs and they have become a defining part of the school’s everyday life.

After the deaths of two of them, 12-year-old Tobit, in 2019, and Beato, 7, in August, two new puppies joined the school community this fall — Magnus, an 11-week-old Samoyed, and Frassati, a 24-week-old miniature Bernese mountain dog.

“Magnus and Frassati are loving life at Kellenberg Memorial, and we love that they’re here,” Father Dan Griffin, chaplain of Chaplain & Assistant Principal for Mission and Marianist Identity and the owner of Frassati.

Brother Kenneth Hoagland, Kellenberg’s principal, is Magnus’s handler. The dogs are officially owned by the Province of Meribah and the Marianist community, which also provides the funds for their care.

Other dogs that are part of the school include Assistant Principal of Activities Bro. Roger Poletti’s Matthias, the Apostle, an 8-year-old Yorkie, and Chaplain Fr. Thomas Cardone’s 9-year-old miniature golden doodle, Goretti, named after St. Maria Goretti.

“It is our firm belief that atmosphere educates — the dogs only further that belief, serving as a calming presence and welcomed sight,” Tara O’Donoghue, Kellenberg’s communications director, said.

“The new dogs joined our family right around the time our new students did,” Griffin said. “It’s definitely fun to witness the personalities of both the pups and these young minds emerge simultaneously.”

Hoagland and Griffin live on campus with their canine companions in the Marianist Residence — home to the Marianist brothers and priests who live and work at the school — and the animals are rarely out of their sight. Dogs have been part of the fabric of Kellenberg since its founding in 1987.

The Society of Mary, known as the Marianists, is a 200-year-old Catholic religious congregation of brothers and priests. All of the dogs’ names have reflected the school’s Catholic identity.

Magnus name comes from the Latin “magnanimous,” meaning “great soul.” Frassati is named after Pier Giorgio Frassati, who was canonized as a saint by

“They serve as companions to our brothers, the Marianist leaders of our school,” O’Donoghue explained, “and over time have become a fully integrated part of their day. Magnus will be outside Brother Ken’s office and will have a line of students waiting to pet him, because students don’t want to go home without saying goodbye.”

Students are encouraged to interact with the dogs, but always with caution. While the new pups are now acclimated to the school environment, O’Donoghue said that it took a few weeks. Frassati was very shy at first, but now he knows what it

Principal Shawn Brown sees parade as lesson in pride

Colton Wynter, a co-director of the Marching Knights, along with Joe Boardman, said. “They really did a great job — the freshman are so talented,” added Wynter, who has led the program for 20 years.

‘Show style’

The band plays a variety of R&B songs, emulating the sound and energy of Southern bands at historically black colleges and universities like North Carolina A&T and Howard and Hampton universities. The Marching Knights are proud to bring that tradition to Long Island.

“That’s what makes us different from every other band,” Grier said.

Freshmen learn show-style marching at a district band camp in mid-August, in preparation for large-scale parades like the African American, St. Patrick Day Parade and Thanksgiving Day Parade.

“All the freshmen, and other people that have already been in the band, come together during band camp,” Keyla Gomez, 16, a senior at the high school and band member, said. “And then when school starts, we keep practicing — even on holidays — because we all want our band to grow.”

“I feel like our band stole the show,” Shawn Brown, second-year principal of the high school and one of the marshals of the parade, said. “The way they performed, I wish I was walking with them instead of all the other marshals, because they were phenomenal.”

Brown, who actually has Panamanian roots, said the band’s performance reflected more than just musical excellence — it reflected the values and pride of the Uniondale school district. Before the parade began, he listened as various cultural leaders spoke, which left a strong impression on him. He also took to the podium to share a few words.

“I spoke about the honor of knowing and being taught about the history of African American culture, and what I represent for the African American culture — specifically in education,” Brown said. He described his education as an obli-

gation to his ancestors and to those who have invested in him, and called district Superintendent Monique Darrisaw-Akil one of his mentors.

As for his students, Brown said, “They look at me, and sometimes they learn through observation, not necessarily through lectures and speeches. I change the idea about what’s possible for them just by being in this position.”

Among those in the cheering crowd on Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard were Brown’s family — his wife, Jennifer, and their three children, Shawn Jr., 19, Jonathan, 17, and Kaitlyn, 11.

“Looking at them in a crowd got me

emotional, because I know that these are going to be core memories that they carry on into their future,” Brown said.

Grier said that seeing her principal help lead the parade wasn’t strange, because he is always a leader in his students’ eyes.

Both Grier and Gomez have marched in the parade since their freshman year, balancing band with packed schedules that include classes, sports, family responsibilities and extracurriculars.

“I play volleyball, softball, basketball — I’ve been boxing on Sundays,” Grier said. “I make sure I manage my time very well, doing work whenever I can. All your

free time is dedicated to all the stuff that you signed up for.”

Gomez, who helps care for her younger siblings, echoed that balancing act.

“I hope students see what dedication, hard work, commitment can lead to and grow from it as an ensemble,” Wynter said. “These kids work hard to do what they do, and people outside Uniondale appreciate and look forward to what they give to the world.”

The best photos will be featured in the Herald – and the WINNER will be chosen at random to win 2 tickets to an Islanders game!

Contest runs through midnight October 12, 2025

New York State and regional government officials, along with major business leaders, will come together to headline Minority Enterprise Development Month 2025 on Oct. 9, at the Town of Hempstead Pavilion. The evening program, running from 6 to 9 p.m., will kick off a monthlong celebration focused on strengthening and supporting minority- and women-owned small businesses across New York State.

Organized by the Long Island African American Chamber of Commerce, Inc, this year’s “MED Month 2.0” will feature a series of events offering tools, resources, and networking opportunities aimed at helping small and midsized business owners expand their reach, access new markets, and scale sustainably.

Last year’s MED Month event featured the unveiling of the chamber’s new lapel pin and the presentation of its first Founder’s Day Award to Long Island African American Chamber of Commerce Vice President Rose Ward. This year’s celebration continues that momentum, expanding its reach to provide more opportunities for small business collaboration and advancement.

“Minority Enterprise Development Month will continue to fuel the growth of small businesses in New York State well into the future,” Ward said. “The Long Island African American Chamber of Commerce’s insight and knowledge of resources gives the chamber a unique advantage in helping business owners across the state grow and succeed.”

Among the featured speakers will be Rafael Salaberrios, Senior Vice President of Small Business Capital Access for Empire State Development. Salaberrios leads a statewide team focused on leveraging private capital through programs such as collateral support, loan guarantees, and public-private investment initia-

tives. ESD’s New York Forward Loan Fund, launched during the Covid-19 pandemic, has distributed more than 1,200 loans totaling $70 million, with the majority going to businesses with ten or fewer employees — 65 percent of which were minority- or women-owned.

Other confirmed speakers include Christine Norman, Deputy Chief Diversity Officer at the MTA’s Department of Diversity and Civil Rights; Michael Thiemann, Business Advocate for the New York State Department of Labor; Lauren Linakis, Assistant Director at the Farmingdale Small Business Development Center; and Amy Erickson, Executive Director of the Long Island Manufacturing Extension Partnership at Stony Brook University.

Representatives from the private sector will also be featured, including Amy Flores, Vice President and Community Manager, and Akim Jones, Senior Business Consultant at Chase Bank; and Christine Bryson, Economic Development Specialist for PSEG Long Island, who works with local businesses to access grants, rebates, and energy-efficiency incentives.

Beyond the headline event, MED Month will include a series of workshops and networking sessions designed to help entrepreneurs grow their customer base, secure financing, and pursue government contracting opportunities.

“We often hear of the many challenges that minority-owned businesses face,” Ward said. “But this month is about celebrating their resilience and success.”

Turn Old Valuables into Big Gains: 5 Tips To Profit From Unwanted Gold and Watches

Gold prices are at historic highs, and many Long Islanders are finding surprising value in jewelry boxes and dresser drawers.

With gold surpassing $3,300 an ounce, even a broken bracelet or an outdated watch could bring an unexpected payday. Collectors Coins Jewelry & Watches, a family-run business with more than 75 years of experience, has seen more people cashing in on everything from snapped chains to vintage timepieces.

Mary from Nassau County is a prime example. She brought in a bag of broken gold chains and old watches expecting a modest payout. One piece, a rare 1953 Rolex Turn-O-Graph 6202, turned out to be a collector’s dream. Even though it wasn’t running, it sold for $8,500.

“These kinds of surprises happen more often than people realize,” says Jason J. of Collectors. “There’s real value hiding in homes, people just don’t realize it.”

Here are five tips from Jason on how to make the most of today’s record-high market: Broken doesn’t mean worthless.

There’s real value hiding in homes, people just don’t realize it.

JASON J., Collectors Coins Jewelry & Watches

Gold is priced by weight and purity, not condition. Even single earrings, outdated styles, or snapped chains can fetch top dollar.

Know your karats. Look for stamps like 10k, 14k, 18k, or 22k. If you don’t see one, reputable buyers have the tools to determine purity and make an accurate offer.

Don’t overlook silver or coins. Sterling silver flatware, serving pieces, and coin collections have also gone up in value, sometimes netting hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Local sales have advantages. Selling in person means instant payment and a transparent process, no shipping, no waiting weeks to get paid.

Old watches could be treasures. Non-working luxury brands like Rolex, Omega, Patek Philippe, and Cartier still have strong collector demand. Jason recommends doing your homework before selling: read reviews, compare offers, and work with an established, trusted buyer. “We always tell people to shop around,” he says. “That

way they know they’re getting a fair deal.”

Broken gold, silver, or a vintage timepiece, what’s hiding in your home could be worth more than you think.

Rep. Laura Gillen voices concern over stalled funding, health care cuts

By JOSEPH D’ALESSANDRO jdalessandro@liherald.com

With the federal government currently in shutdown, U.S. Rep. Laura Gillen, who represents New York’s Congressional District 4, offered a bipartisan solution.

Gillen shared her perspective on the federal government’s shutdown at the Family and Health Center office in Uniondale on Oct. 2, calling for her Republican colleagues in the house to hear Democrats’ concerns about the budget.

Health care spending is at the center of the disagreement in the House. The budget Congress had attempted to pass, up until Oct. 1 at midnight, includes cuts to a selection of programs that Gillen called “the largest cut to health care in America’s history.”

Gillen called for both parties to seek a bipartisan solution before rising health costs contribute to the financial burden of families across her district.

Tunder the Affordable Healthcare Act.

“A middle class family of four could see their health care bills rise by an additional $3,200 next year,” she explained. “This is really going to hurt people. We are already struggling with the cost of living crisis, and Long Islanders cannot afford another increased bill.”

A shutdown occurs when congress does not pass a budget for the upcoming fiscal year, which is Oct. 1 for the federal government. During a shutdown, nonessential departments are halted, while vital institutions must continue working without pay.

The last government shutdown was in 2019.

his is really going to hurt people.

L

“If House Republicans governed responsibly, they would have met with us,” she said. “Instead, they’ve chosen to throw our health care system into further crisis, just months after they voted to gut Medicaid for millions of children, seniors and people with disabilities.”

Gabriel Pedeira is the legislative and political organizer for the American Federation of Government Employees — the largest federal labor union in the country with 800,000 members. In the previous shutdown, Pedeira saw federal workers struggle with delayed pay.

“We had people going to food banks,” he said. “We had people who could not pay their utility bills at the time. We had families who couldn’t pay for childcare at the time. We had people who were forced to go to work and literally couldn’t afford the gasoline.

Jeffrey Reynolds, president and chief executive of Family & Children’s Association, explained that suicides, divorces and other civil disruptions have been on downward trend post-coronavirus pandemic, but that progress could be at risk.

The “Big Bad Bill,” according to Gillen, includes cuts that would significantly raise premiums for people who have plans

“This is not something that should be happening in a developed nation like the United States of America,” he continued. “I know we can do better.”

“I worry that the threats to Medicaid, the threats to the ACA  to the grants that we hold here at FCA  put all of that in jeopardy,” he said.

Vanessa Barid-Streeter, president and

chief executive of the Health and Welfare Council of Long Island, urged for healthcare spending to remain a priority in the federal budget.

“They are lifelines for people, for communities and for individuals,” she said. “If we let these credits expire, we will all feel it deeply, personally and collectively.”
