 Get ready to take your fish tagging to the next level!
The American Littoral Society's Fish Tagging Program is thrilled to announce a new partnership with Fish-Trak, a free and innovative fish tagging and tracking app. This collaboration will revolutionize how our members record and track their tagged fish, bringing cutting-edge technology to our decades of conservation expertise. "The Littoral Society has long been a leader in marine conservation, with nearly 1 million fish tagged through its program since 1965," said Emily McGuckin, Fish Tagging Program Director. "This partnership marks a significant leap forward in combining decades of conservation expertise with cutting-edge technology."  February is Black History Month, a time to reflect on the contributions and experiences of Black Americans throughout history.
This year, we had the privilege of speaking with historian James E. Johnson, author of "Black Biographies of the Lower Delaware Valley: Antebellum to the Great Migration," to delve into his research and the rich history of Black communities in South Jersey. In addition to the book, published in October 2024, Johnson is the author of numerous historical articles that have appeared in several NJ historical society magazines, as well as The New York Times, South Jersey Times, and American Baptist Quarterly. He also contributed to The Rutgers University Press books "The Governors of New Jersey, Biographical Essays" and "Black New Jersey: 1664 to the present day". From Activism to Academia Johnson's journey is as compelling as the stories he tells. Born and raised in Philadelphia, Johnson moved to Clayton, NJ (just south of Glassboro) in his late teens. While there he came to appreciate the "laid-back lifestyle" of many residents. |
