(Morrie Turner via Cartoon Art Museum, San Francisco)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>One of my many cultural blind spots: the funny papers. Once upon a time I read them as avidly as anyone. Then probably somewhere in the Reagan years, or Bush or Clinton or Bush II years, I lost the thread and my reading narrowed from a wide range of childhood and teenage favorites, like \"Dick Tracy\" and \"Peanuts\" and \"Pogo\" and \"Mark Trail\" and \"The Family Circus\" (comics don't need to be good to be classic; some you read because they're consistently lame) to \"Calvin and Hobbes,\" \"Life in Hell\" and maybe some \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2013/05/29/187079888/looking-ahead-to-the-future-of-cartoons-and-creativity\" target=\"_blank\">Lynda Barry \u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://rozchast.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Roz Chast \u003c/a>stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, my habit is down to the occasional glance at \"Doonesbury\" and comics substitutes like \"The Colbert Report,\" which is essentially the comics taken to manic, steroid-infused, 3-D (or at least 2-D) heights and performed live (or nearly live) on a screen near you every evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long ago, I guess, I had encountered \"Wee Pals,\" a strip that focused in a direct, honest but non-confrontational way on racial issues. I wasn't a fan of the strip — again, a comment on me and my tastes, not the quality of \"Wee Pals\" — and I never delved into what was behind it. And one of the things I missed was an interesting piece of local history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The creator of the strip, which began to get a national following in the late 1960s, was Oakland artist Morrie Turner, who died over the weekend in Sacramento at the age of 90. The San Francisco Chronicle's Peter Hartlaub wrote a nice remembrance of Turner on Sunday — \u003ca href=\"http://blog.sfgate.com/thebigevent/2014/01/27/rip-morrie-turner-comic-strip-artist-mentor-and-pride-of-oakland/\" target=\"_blank\">RIP Morrie Turner: Comic strip artist, mentor and pride of Oakland\u003c/a>. Hartlaub (who also wrote \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/default/article/Morrie-Turner-pioneering-Wee-Pals-cartoonist-5183290.php\" target=\"_blank\">a full obituary on Turner\u003c/a>) said in part:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We had been hearing for more than a year that Turner’s health was failing, but it seemed hard to believe. The Berkeley High graduate and longtime Oakland resident continued to draw his strip, even as local institutions including the San Francisco Library, Cartoon Art Museum and Children Fairyland honored his career in recent years. When Turner was with a crowd, he was more enthusiastic than most public figures half his age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nationally, Turner will likely be remembered as the first African-American cartoonist to draw a nationally syndicated strip, bringing humorous and honest racial dialogue into newspapers. (His “Soul Corner” on the right side of the strip often celebrated black heroes.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Locally, I think artists and fans viewed him as more than that. After Charles Schulz died in 2000, Turner embraced his role as an elder statesman of Bay Area comic strip artists. He was a generous and gracious presence at WonderCon and other events, and younger talents were eager to absorb his wisdom. His work also generated pride in Oakland, where Turner’s strip reflected the city in a nuanced way that residents could understand.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/29/arts/morrie-turner-dies-at-90-broke-barriers-in-comics.html\" target=\"_blank\">A New York Times obituary\u003c/a> relates how \"Wee Pals\" evolved:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Mr. Turner’s comic strip “Wee Pals,” featuring childhood playmates who were white, black, Asian, Hispanic and Jewish (joined in later years by a girl in a wheelchair and a deaf girl), was considered subversive in 1965, when a major syndicate first offered it to newspapers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only two or three of the hundreds of newspapers in the syndicate picked it up. By early 1968, there were five. But of the many changes that occurred after the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. that April and the urban uprisings it started, some of the first appeared in the nation’s funny papers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thirty newspapers began subscribing to Mr. Turner’s comic strip in the first 30 days after the assassination; within a few months the number had swelled to 100. “Suddenly everybody was interested in me,” he told a public access television interviewer in 2010.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later in 1968, the black artist Brumsic Brandon Jr. created his comic strip “Luther,” about a 9-year-old boy growing up in the ghetto. It, too, found a wide audience in newspaper syndication.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You can imagine how I felt,” Mr. Turner said, referring to his newfound popularity. “I mean, I’m benefiting from the assassination of Dr. King, one of my heroes. It was kind of a bittersweet experience.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>In the video below, a public access TV interview recorded in 2010, Turner comments on one of the mysteries (and ironies) in \"Wee Pals\": that its main character, an African-American youngster named Nipper, wears a Confederate cap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-image\">\u003ciframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/WKbHAKDDNok\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

(Morrie Turner via Cartoon Art Museum, San Francisco)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>One of my many cultural blind spots: the funny papers. Once upon a time I read them as avidly as anyone. Then probably somewhere in the Reagan years, or Bush or Clinton or Bush II years, I lost the thread and my reading narrowed from a wide range of childhood and teenage favorites, like \"Dick Tracy\" and \"Peanuts\" and \"Pogo\" and \"Mark Trail\" and \"The Family Circus\" (comics don't need to be good to be classic; some you read because they're consistently lame) to \"Calvin and Hobbes,\" \"Life in Hell\" and maybe some \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2013/05/29/187079888/looking-ahead-to-the-future-of-cartoons-and-creativity\" target=\"_blank\">Lynda Barry \u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://rozchast.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Roz Chast \u003c/a>stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, my habit is down to the occasional glance at \"Doonesbury\" and comics substitutes like \"The Colbert Report,\" which is essentially the comics taken to manic, steroid-infused, 3-D (or at least 2-D) heights and performed live (or nearly live) on a screen near you every evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long ago, I guess, I had encountered \"Wee Pals,\" a strip that focused in a direct, honest but non-confrontational way on racial issues. I wasn't a fan of the strip — again, a comment on me and my tastes, not the quality of \"Wee Pals\" — and I never delved into what was behind it. And one of the things I missed was an interesting piece of local history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The creator of the strip, which began to get a national following in the late 1960s, was Oakland artist Morrie Turner, who died over the weekend in Sacramento at the age of 90. The San Francisco Chronicle's Peter Hartlaub wrote a nice remembrance of Turner on Sunday — \u003ca href=\"http://blog.sfgate.com/thebigevent/2014/01/27/rip-morrie-turner-comic-strip-artist-mentor-and-pride-of-oakland/\" target=\"_blank\">RIP Morrie Turner: Comic strip artist, mentor and pride of Oakland\u003c/a>. Hartlaub (who also wrote \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/default/article/Morrie-Turner-pioneering-Wee-Pals-cartoonist-5183290.php\" target=\"_blank\">a full obituary on Turner\u003c/a>) said in part:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We had been hearing for more than a year that Turner’s health was failing, but it seemed hard to believe. The Berkeley High graduate and longtime Oakland resident continued to draw his strip, even as local institutions including the San Francisco Library, Cartoon Art Museum and Children Fairyland honored his career in recent years. When Turner was with a crowd, he was more enthusiastic than most public figures half his age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nationally, Turner will likely be remembered as the first African-American cartoonist to draw a nationally syndicated strip, bringing humorous and honest racial dialogue into newspapers. (His “Soul Corner” on the right side of the strip often celebrated black heroes.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Locally, I think artists and fans viewed him as more than that. After Charles Schulz died in 2000, Turner embraced his role as an elder statesman of Bay Area comic strip artists. He was a generous and gracious presence at WonderCon and other events, and younger talents were eager to absorb his wisdom. His work also generated pride in Oakland, where Turner’s strip reflected the city in a nuanced way that residents could understand.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2014/01/29/arts/morrie-turner-dies-at-90-broke-barriers-in-comics.html\" target=\"_blank\">A New York Times obituary\u003c/a> relates how \"Wee Pals\" evolved:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Mr. Turner’s comic strip “Wee Pals,” featuring childhood playmates who were white, black, Asian, Hispanic and Jewish (joined in later years by a girl in a wheelchair and a deaf girl), was considered subversive in 1965, when a major syndicate first offered it to newspapers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only two or three of the hundreds of newspapers in the syndicate picked it up. By early 1968, there were five. But of the many changes that occurred after the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. that April and the urban uprisings it started, some of the first appeared in the nation’s funny papers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thirty newspapers began subscribing to Mr. Turner’s comic strip in the first 30 days after the assassination; within a few months the number had swelled to 100. “Suddenly everybody was interested in me,” he told a public access television interviewer in 2010.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later in 1968, the black artist Brumsic Brandon Jr. created his comic strip “Luther,” about a 9-year-old boy growing up in the ghetto. It, too, found a wide audience in newspaper syndication.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You can imagine how I felt,” Mr. Turner said, referring to his newfound popularity. “I mean, I’m benefiting from the assassination of Dr. King, one of my heroes. It was kind of a bittersweet experience.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>In the video below, a public access TV interview recorded in 2010, Turner comments on one of the mysteries (and ironies) in \"Wee Pals\": that its main character, an African-American youngster named Nipper, wears a Confederate cap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-image\">\u003ciframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/WKbHAKDDNok\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Needleman says the folk song used to be a plea for help from God, not just an ode to peace and love.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's not this sentimental kind of feeling that “Kumbayah” seems to have become,\" Needleman says. \"This is like, 'We’re down in trouble. Lord, come by here. Come, we need you, Jesus! Won't you come by here.' There’s a kind of a force of urgency that’s in the song.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Kodály Center's director, Anne Laskey, says she's worried that commercialized music is eclipsing a piece of America's heritage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Genuine folk music has been handed down from parents to children, through generations, and it changes, and each time it changes and might develop something deeper, some deeper meaning. It’s a very different thing than someone writing a folk song and recording it and having it be this one thing that never changes,\" Laskey says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Mary Has a Red Bird\" is good example of this oral history. A father and daughter in Texas sang this recording 75 years ago:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/130683162&color=ff6600&auto_play=false&show_artwork=true\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This was a song sung to the babies way back in the cotton fields of slavery back down in about 1845,\" Henry Truvillion explains to the archivist after singing the song. Then he names the generations who sang this melody to their children, and eventually, to him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Needleman, Laskey and the team at Holy Names will continue cataloging music into the archive and collecting new recordings. They want American folk songs that are both beautiful and typical of the music from various cultures and eras.

Needleman says the folk song used to be a plea for help from God, not just an ode to peace and love.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's not this sentimental kind of feeling that “Kumbayah” seems to have become,\" Needleman says. \"This is like, 'We’re down in trouble. Lord, come by here. Come, we need you, Jesus! Won't you come by here.' There’s a kind of a force of urgency that’s in the song.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Kodály Center's director, Anne Laskey, says she's worried that commercialized music is eclipsing a piece of America's heritage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Genuine folk music has been handed down from parents to children, through generations, and it changes, and each time it changes and might develop something deeper, some deeper meaning. It’s a very different thing than someone writing a folk song and recording it and having it be this one thing that never changes,\" Laskey says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Mary Has a Red Bird\" is good example of this oral history. A father and daughter in Texas sang this recording 75 years ago:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/130683162&color=ff6600&auto_play=false&show_artwork=true\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This was a song sung to the babies way back in the cotton fields of slavery back down in about 1845,\" Henry Truvillion explains to the archivist after singing the song. Then he names the generations who sang this melody to their children, and eventually, to him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Needleman, Laskey and the team at Holy Names will continue cataloging music into the archive and collecting new recordings. They want American folk songs that are both beautiful and typical of the music from various cultures and eras. The archive is looking for people to submit new songs, transcribe submitted songs and sing new recordings of old songs.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Well, if you're a patron of the Oakland Public Library, you're about to find out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Librarian Sharon McKellar says she began saving the ephemera she found in books even before she started working at Oakland's library in 2003.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McKellar manages \u003ca href=\"http://www.oaklandlibrary.org/blogs\" target=\"_blank\">the library's blog\u003c/a>, and one day it occurred to her that other people might enjoy the pictures and \"to do\" lists she finds stuck in returned books.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was trying to think of new things to put on my blog, on our library's website,\" she says. \"Wouldn't it be fun to do a sort of a \u003ca href=\"http://foundmagazine.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Found magazine\u003c/a>-style post with things that people in the library have found.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So I put a call out to basically all library staff and just said if you have anything, send it my way,\" McKellar says. \"I sort of hoped I’d get a couple of items, enough to make one post, and I just got tons and tons of stuff from everywhere. It turned out that people from all over the library have been holding onto and saving this stuff and they all have their favorites and pieces they hold dear.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">'Whereas John is manipulative and cruel so he is not good enough for the throne, now therefore I proclaim myself to be the rightful heir to the throne.'\u003cbr>\n\u003ccite>— Anonymous\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Thus was born \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.oaklandlibrary.org/blogs/library-community/found-library-style\" target=\"_blank\">Found, Library Style\u003c/a>.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some notes are simple and to the point: \"Naomi, please look for my special note to you in the living room.

Homework? Someone genuinely upset?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McKellar likes \"to do\" lists.

So many little pieces of homework.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Go home now!\" reads one scrap in shaky script. \"Please don't say funny words,\" reads another. \"Barack Obama is hard-working because he has to make new laws, speeches and take care of his family.\" says a third.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/128917873&color=ff6600&auto_play=false&show_artwork=true\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nina Lindsay, the supervising librarian for Children's Services at Oakland Public Library, keeps her own collection on the walls of her office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of her favorites is a ransom note written by a child to the whole world: \"Dear World, Each citizen needs to give 100 dollars so each country, state, citizen, should at least have a thousand dollars.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lindsay adds that the ransom note was accompanied by \"a lot of pieces of fake money, just different scraps of paper, like fake Monopoly money, so it made me hopeful that the ransom was being paid.\".\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lindsay says the notes are precious as windows into another world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Children usually are used to talking to adults in the way they think they are supposed to talk to adults,\" she says. \"And I feel like we don't always get to hear what's going on in their minds and hearts, and these notes let us see inside that a little bit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McKellar says some of what she thinks is appealing about the notes, and has made them a hit on the blog, is the fact there is a bit of mystery around them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I feel like in general the things you find in a book, it's one of two things. Either it's a throwaway thing, you either needed a piece of paper to mark your place,\" says McKellar. \"Or else it's something that's so intimate and personal that you want it with you, and you want to carry it with you everywhere you go, so it becomes a part of this thing you’re reading every day. And they are so different from each other it's interesting to try to figure out which it might be.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She reads some of the more sentimental notes in her collection:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Remember I love you sweetheart. The past is the past. So let's not take it home with us. I just want to love you and be happy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And: \"I hope when you find this, whatever you are doing, you are having a great time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says she dreams of reconnecting some of the notes, photos and drawings with the people who make them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Part of what’s interesting about putting them on the website is, I think it would be really fun if somebody saw it and said, 'That’s the note I left for my son in his lunch that morning and never saw again.' It would be cool if people recognized something of theirs.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

Well, if you're a patron of the Oakland Public Library, you're about to find out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Librarian Sharon McKellar says she began saving the ephemera she found in books even before she started working at Oakland's library in 2003.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McKellar manages \u003ca href=\"http://www.oaklandlibrary.org/blogs\" target=\"_blank\">the library's blog\u003c/a>, and one day it occurred to her that other people might enjoy the pictures and \"to do\" lists she finds stuck in returned books.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was trying to think of new things to put on my blog, on our library's website,\" she says. \"Wouldn't it be fun to do a sort of a \u003ca href=\"http://foundmagazine.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Found magazine\u003c/a>-style post with things that people in the library have found.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So I put a call out to basically all library staff and just said if you have anything, send it my way,\" McKellar says. \"I sort of hoped I’d get a couple of items, enough to make one post, and I just got tons and tons of stuff from everywhere. It turned out that people from all over the library have been holding onto and saving this stuff and they all have their favorites and pieces they hold dear.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">'Whereas John is manipulative and cruel so he is not good enough for the throne, now therefore I proclaim myself to be the rightful heir to the throne.'\u003cbr>\n\u003ccite>— Anonymous\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Thus was born \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.oaklandlibrary.org/blogs/library-community/found-library-style\" target=\"_blank\">Found, Library Style\u003c/a>.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Either it's a throwaway thing, you either needed a piece of paper to mark your place,\" says McKellar. \"Or else it's something that's so intimate and personal that you want it with you, and you want to carry it with you everywhere you go, so it becomes a part of this thing you’re reading every day. And they are so different from each other it's interesting to try to figure out which it might be.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She reads some of the more sentimental notes in her collection:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Remember I love you sweetheart. The past is the past. So let's not take it home with us. I just want to love you and be happy.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And: \"I hope when you find this, whatever you are doing, you are having a great time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says she dreams of reconnecting some of the notes, photos and drawings with the people who make them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Part of what’s interesting about putting them on the website is, I think it would be really fun if somebody saw it and said, 'That’s the note I left for my son in his lunch that morning and never saw again.' It would be cool if people recognized something of theirs.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
