Edward Sapir

Edward Sapir, left, and his brother Max, via Darnell’s biography Edward Sapir.

Edwards Sapir was born in 1884 in what is now Lebork Poland, the son of a Jewish cantor whose dreams of being an opera star were never realized. The family often traveled for his work -- in essence, Sapir had no home town. He grew up speaking Yiddish and received a thorough training in Hebrew. In 1890 his father took a position in Richmond, Virginia and then another position in New York. Sapir was almost as mobile as his father, taking American citizenship, then Canadian, then American again in the course of his career. At the end of the day, he felt he was not really American, or Polish, or Jewish, but a New Yorker.

Sapir's incredibly intellectual gifts manifested themselves early. He attended Stuyvesant, the legendary elite public school in New York that has provided generations of poor, gifted students a pathway to success. When he was fourteen he won a city-wide academic competition and used the money to attend Columbia, where he received his BA in three years. Sapir was musical, and studied piano and composition with the composer Edward MacDowell. But his speciality was language: Competent in Hebrew, Yiddish, and English, he studied Latin and Greek in school, as well as French and Spanish. His undergraduate training was in German philology, where he studied the then-new approach of historical linguistics.

It was at Columbia that he encountered Franz Boas, who exposed him to American Indian languages. The experience was mind-blowing: a continent full of ways of thinking and expressing one's self radically different than Indo-European languages. The process of eliciting language and grammar from informants was also fascinating to Sapir. He was quickly converted. Boas was delighted with Sapir. He, like everyone else, would consider Sapir one of this best students. Sapir did his first fieldwork in the Pacific Northwest on Chinook -- a notoriously complex language. He earned his Ph.D. in 1909 and immediately landed a plum job: to direct ethnographic research in Canada.

It was an amazing opportunity: Sapir would be able to shape the direction of research for an entire country, but it also came with drawbacks. Sapir moved to Ottawa and took Canadian citizenship. But Ottawa was not like Sapir's beloved New York. He missed the lack of cultural institutions and intellectual ferment. Ottawa was also very homogenous, and Sapir had trouble fitting in with the waspy Canadian upper-crust the way he was supposed to. He had hoped the job would let him do fieldwork as he pleased, but the government wanted him to be an administrator who sent other people out to do fieldwork.

Throughout this period Sapir not only produced linguistics and anthrpology, he also grew pensive. He wrote essays on culture and identity. He experimented with poetry. Partially his adventurousness was due to his boredom in Ottawa. But it also had deeper roots: His wife Florence was slowly dying. It was a long and excruciating process. For her treatments, Sapir often came to New York for extended periods. It was at this point, in the mid-1920s, that he met and fell in love with Ruth Benedict. They corresponded, and sent each other poetry. When he was in New York, she would take care of his children -- something that Benedict, who could not have children herself, especially valued. He also met Boas's new student Margaret Mead, and struck up a relationship with her which was not entirely platonic. Eventually he asked Benedict to marry him, but she refused: Sapir was a traditionalist who wanted her to become a stay at home mother and abandon her career.

After Sapir's wife passed away, he decided it was time for a change. Luckily, one was available: The University of Chicago was looking for someone to hold up the anthropology section of its sociology department (anthropology was a part of sociology at that time). It was a young, wealthy university with a commitment to pure research. Sapir was promised that he could do whatever he liked there -- it was a place where stars were given room to be themselves. So he went. It was a good move: For most of the 20th century Chicago was the center of social sciences (_all_ of them) in the US and perhaps globally. Sapir remarried in Chicago and trained several students, including Leslie White. But it was not to last.

In 1931 Sapir left Chicago. He had been poached by Yale. Chicago had offered him freedom, but Yale offered him something even bigger: A whole institution, dedicated to his work. He could have freedom to work as well as train up students and develop new curriculum: His new interest in culture and personality. It was also in Connecticut, a convenient train ride away from New York. At Yale the now-middle-aged Sapir would not have to put up with the brutal Chicago winters. So he went.

Yale did give Sapir the opportunities it promised. He developed close relationships with other scholars interested in culture and personality. But Yale also had its drawbacks. The university was wealthy and prestigious, but it was also a haven of white privilege: "Pale, male, Yale" as the saying goes. As a Jew, Sapir was discriminated against. He was initially rejected from membership in the faculty club. He founded the sociology department, but was constantly at war with George Murdock, the protegé of William Graham Sumner, the social darwinist Sapir had replaced.

Sapir's health also began failing. He had a heart condition. It was the middle of the depression, and there was no medicare or unemployment insurance -- he had to keep teaching or else he would not support his family. He withdrew more and more from his responsibilities, but the need to earn money meant he could never get the rest that he needed to recover. Finally, he died of a heart attack in 1939.

Pages from 'Shakespeare’s Flowers' by Jessica Kerr, illustrated by Anne Ophelia Dowden.

Notes:

English playwright William Shakespeare (1564-1616) liked to use flowers to illustrate his ideas about people: their appearance, characters and actions. During this period, people believed in fairies and witches, poison brews, love potions, spells and signs, mysterious portents in the heavens and omens of disaster. Shakespeare's plays which contain the most mentions of flowers are 'A Winter's Tale' and 'Midsummer's Night Dream'. Gillyvors are the same species as the carnation. Two hundred years before Shakespeare, Geoffrey Chaucer spelt the word as 'gylofore'. The flower has a rich, pungent scent of cloves and is used to make a delicious wine [the prime ingredient of which is apples].

I made quite a few notes from this book while I was staying at a backpackers' hostel which has its own mini-library. Subjects such as the apothecaries of Buckleberry Street in London (the aroma from various herbal concoctions was so pungent it could be detected from some distance); the saying that a dim-witted person had "eaten darnel", because the weed darnel was said to cause blindness or poor eyesight; the 'fleur de Louis' which later became known as the 'fleur-de-lys', was originally* used by the twelfth century French king Louis VII in the Second Crusade, and later incorporated into the English coat of arms in the fourteenth century by Edward III of England (acc. to the book, the symbol remained - strangely- for 250 years after the possession of Calais had been returned - *needs checking).

Other facts: the stems of the rosemary bushes were used to make the musical instrument, the lute; an Elizabethan greengrocer was known as a 'pepperer'; in England, the first Sunday in April was (and apparently still is) known as ‘Daffodil Sunday’; the word ‘pansy’ comes from the French word ‘pansee’ for ‘thought’; ‘ruth’ is an old word meaning ‘pity’, or being full of compassion and empathy for others. It has since been overtaken in modern parlance by its antonym, ‘ruthless’.

*As is often the case, there are lots of other origin stories on the Internet regarding the fleur-de-lys and its symbolism. I'd have to do a lot of research to cobble together a definitive piece about it, which I may well do one day, but I already have a job list as long as the Nile!

meriggiare - Miss Ruth

meriggiare - to rest at noon, more likely in a shady spot outdoors

“It’s too hot, Carla,” Ruth complains, fanning herself with a church program, feeling sweat trickle even so down the back of her neck. She sips the sweet tea she keeps eternally in one hand, a legacy of her southern girlhood she’s never given up, even after she married a California boy and let him move her out here to where, as he said, things were happening.

She could have told him things happen everydamnwhere, but that was Wilbur for you. A man who never stood still, never stopped finding a project to throw himself into. Endless, boundless energy for his family, his work, for the cause.

Still.

She wouldn’t have married another man if you’d offered a million dollars and everything else she wanted besides. She’d wanted him.

“Yeah, well, that’s for sure.” Her daughter fanned herself as well, the two of them still in church clothes. Inside, lunch heated in the oven, and it was the heat of the kitchen that had chased them out here to the shaded porch. Soon enough she’d bring the dish out and call Jaden back, and shortly after Darnell would be bringing the rest of her grandchildren by with his wife. Spitting image of his father, that Darnell.

Nice just to look at him sometimes, and think it was good to see a bit of Wilbur still walked around on earth.

“You know, when you told me Jaden plays with the neighbor boy, I thought there’s no way,” Carla continued. From here, they could see Jaden and his friends down the street at someone else’s house, playing basketball with a big metal hoop Jaden’s friend Booker’s parents had in their driveway. As short as all of them was the red-headed boy who played, too, sticking out from the crowd in his oversized clothing and the way he was clearly older than everyone else.

Ruth smiled as she watched Jaden shoot a free-throw that sunk right into the net, the boys cheering as one, and then they moved again. Someone grabbed the ball and passed it on to someone else. Ruth stopped watching, at that point - she understood basketball about as well as she understood architecture, which is to say, not at all.

“I asked Jaden if you were forcing him to include the neighbor boy, you know,” Carla said, and Ruth raised one eyebrow in reply. “I did! I wanted to know. But no, he says they have fun together.”

The red-headed neighbor made a layup this time. The cheering was just as loud, and the boy grinned when Jaden clapped him on the back. The boys split apart again, next play.

“‘Course they do, Carla Sue,” Ruth said, taking a sip of her tea. “Jaden’s a good kid, good as they come. And so’s this neighbor. Name’s Chris, for the record.”

“No, I know, but he’s so much older...”

“Hm. Maybe so. But I think he’s missed some time he’s busy making up for.”

“What’s that mean?” Carla looks back, frowning, a little suspicious. “What aren’t you telling me, Mama?”

“Hm, nothing. Just rambling.” The timer in the kitchen buzzes, and Ruth smiles as she hears it fall off the edge of the counter and bang into the kitchen tile. “Well, there’s our casserole good and ready. Go get your boy, Carla. Darnell should be here any minute.”

The boys cheer, down the block.

every time i see a post about the statue that was pushed into the docks I have an ‘oh right that’s his name’ moment and then forget his name immediately. because the name of a slave trader and owner is not information i want stored in my head.

i do remember important names.

i remember Cherry Groce and Cynthia Jarrett and Leon Patterson and Joy Gardner and Oluwashijibomi Lapite and Brian Douglas and Alton Manning and Christopher Alder and Rocky Bennett and Roger Sylvester and Derek Bennett and Ricky Bishop and Michael Powell and Azelle Rodney and Jean Charles de Menezes and Mark Nunes and Habib Ullah and Sean Rigg and Seni Lewis and Jimmy Mubenga and Smiley Culture and Kingsley Burrell and Demetre Fraser and Mark Duggan and Jacob Michael and Anthony Grainger and Julian Cole and Leon Briggs and Faruk Ali and Aston McLean and Adrian Thompson and Adrian McDonald and Sheku Bayoh and Daniel Adewole and Jermaine Baker and Sarah Reed and Mzee Mohammed Daley and Edson da Costa and Shane Bryant and Darren Cumberbatch and Rashan Charles and Nuno Cardoso and Kevin Clarke and Trevor Smith and Belly Mujinga and Abigaïl Bennett. i remember the names of British POC, ESPECIALLY BLACK PEOPLE, who were killed by a corrupt and racist system.

i remember Mary Seacole and Nanny of the Maroons and Mary Eliza Mahoney and Toussaint Louverture and Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr and Kofoworola Abeni Pratt. i remember the names of people who were wronged, whose legacies are an important part of Black history and global history.

i remember Dr Shirley Jackson and Madam CJ Walker and Lyda D Newman and Marie Van Brittan Brown and Valerie Thomas and Christina Jenkins and Theora Stephens and Lisa Gelobteran and Sarah Boone. i remember the names of Black women whose inventions are an essential part of our lives today, whose names are swept under the rug and hidden by the names of their white male counterparts.

i remember Jupiter Hammon and Wentworth Cheswell and Phillis Wheatley and James Derham and Thomas L Jennings and Alexander Twilight and Macon Allen and Joseph Jenkins Roberts and Charles L Reason and Sarah Jane Woodson Early and Mary Jane Patterson and Dr Rebecca Davis Lee Crumpler and John Willis Menard and Thomas Mundy Peterson and Richard Theodore Greener and Frederick Douglass and Judy W Reed and John R Lynch and Booker T Washington and Butler R Wilson and Lucy Diggs Slowe and Bessie Coleman and Josephine Baker and William Grant Still and James W Ford and William H Hastie and Crystal Bird Fauset and Hattie McDaniel and Bob Howard and Amanda Randolph and Florence LeSueur and Juanita Hall and Ralphe Bunche and Cora Brown and Dorothy Dandridge and Arthur Mitchell and Ruth Carol Taylor and Ruby Bridges and Donyale Luna and Robert Henry Lawrence Jr and Cheryl Browne and Vinnette Justine Carroll and Alan Bell and Teddy Seymour and Barack Obama and Rita Dove and Darnell Martin and Chelsi Smith and Franklin Raines and Venus Williams and Halle Berry and Sophia Danenberg and Karen Bass and Anette Gordon-Reed and Kehinde Wiley and Amy Sherald and Ruth E Carter and so many more. i remember the names of all the Black firsts who are forgotten, whose accomplishments are ignored.

don’t waste brain space on racists. learn from their mistakes, yes. but learn about the Black people they tried to silence for so long. because i can’t think of a better way to spite racists than by remembering the people they tried to make us forget.
