AN ISSUE OF CONCERN, AND LOCALLY AS WELL---WILL A NEW LAW KEEP MEN OUT OF WOMEN'S SPORTS

Welcome to The New Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship---in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

Will a new law keep men out of women's sports (nypost.com)-- Some 66% of folks recently surveyed believe that participation in high-school athletics should be based on sex rather than "gender identity." This stat helps underscore a new law championed by Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman that bans biological men from participating in women's sports.

Tomorrow, the Nassau County Legislature will vote on a measure that would prevent biological males from competing in women’s sports in county-owned facilities.

While critics like state Attorney General Letitia James have called it “discriminatory” and “transphobic,” the measure, supported by most Nassau County voters, would actually promote fairness and integrity in women’s athletics. MORE AT Will a new law keep men out of women's sports (nypost.com)

One hundred Years Ago: 1924------NEW FROM OUR FRIENDS AT EFSP

Il Cinema Ritrovato Festival 2024 is looking back at the cinema of 100 years past. Curator Oliver Hanley selected canonical classics and lesser-known rarities from 1924 culled from the archives, including seminal films from France’s burgeoning avant-garde scene, Swedish master Victor Sjöström’s majestic Hollywood feature, He Who Gets Slapped, Karl Freund’s 'unchained camera' at work in F.W. Murnau’s Der Letzte Mann/The Last Laugh, Gabriellino d’Annunzio and Georg Jacoby’s lavish adaptation of Quo vadis? that almost single-handedly bankrupted Italy’s film industry, plus a thrilling multi-part serial and much more. We selected 33 postcards of classics and less canonical films from Hollywood and European cinema. SEE AND READ MUCH MORE AT European Film Star Postcards: One hundred Years Ago: 1924
