Amanda, Liz, Dan and Diana Welch grew up in the wealthy community of Bedford, N.Y., born to glamorous, successful parents. Then, a series of devastating losses upended their lives as kids: In 1983, their oil executive father was killed in a car accident, leaving a large debt behind, and their mother died of cancer 3½ years later.
In "The Kids Are All Right: A Memoir," each describes, with humility, candor and humor, what happened next. Dan became a hellion, and was eventually kicked out of boarding school. Amanda got into drugs and dropped out of New York University. A neighbor reconsidered adopting Diana after she reached her teens. Meanwhile, Liz traveled to free herself of all of it.

and knees is now something you can run up, hands free, two steps at a time. Well, you weren't wrong then, and you aren't wrong now. Perception may have changed, but the facts remain. Those stairs were big. Now they're small. Go figure. In the following pages, you'll see that we disagree about certain things, as most siblings do. Over the last few years of writing, researching, and interviewing lots of people, we have learned that truth is subjective, always. That goes for every character in the book. Our interpretations of other people's actions are locked in a time and a place. An eight- year- old who has lost her parents sees the world in a much different way than that same girl twenty- five years later. The same is true for a sixteen- or twenty- year- old- girl and for a fourteen- year- old boy. Some people in these pages insisted on using their real names, but other names have been changed, along with identifying characteristics, to protect people's privacy. Other than that, we have each told the truth, and each truth is our own.
Does it feel that your life's become a catastrophe? Oh, it has to be for your to grow, boy. -"Take the Long Way Home," SUPERTRAMP
introduction Our mother died three times. We have the first death on tape, recorded the day it aired in 1976: Morgan Fairchild, wearing a trench coat and pale pink lip- gloss, shot her in the back. Over the past thirty years, we've each watched the tape several times, pulling it from dusty cardboard moving boxes and crossing our fingers it doesn't get eaten by the VCR. It's our only copy.
The scene opens with Morgan, as Jennifer Pace, hiding in a darkened hallway. Our mother, playing Eunice Wyatt on the soap opera Search for Tomorrow, is kissing actor Val Dufour good- bye at their apartment door. His square jaw and dimpled chin are powdered an orangey tan. As John Wyatt, Eunice's cheating husband, Val is dressed conservatively in a suit and tie, but we know him as the guy who once wore a kilt and a feather boa to our parents' annual Christmas party.
The music swells. Commercial break.

West Place Animal SanctuaryRead MoreIn 2003, Wendy Taylor Humphrey's house caught fire, killing her two dogs, six cats, and pet goat. Devastated, she searched for a way to overcome her loss by helping other animals. She trained as a wildlife rehabilitator and founded West Place Animal Sanctuary four years later to help provide shelter and recuperation for abandoned and injured farm animals and wildlife. Today, the sanctuary serves as a home for a variety of animals ranging from domestic ducklings and rabbits to wild turkeys and sheep. Sanctuary volunteers and part-time staff members receive abandoned and injured animals, nurse them back to health, feed them, and provide them with space to roam.3198 Main RoadTiverton, Rhode Island US

That's because he knows that every piece of trash strewing the highway's meridian attracts mice. And mice attract hungry hawks, who can't always dodge oncoming trucks. Not everyone is so aware of the potential far-reaching implications of a single fast-food wrapper, but the Audubon Society director learned such lessons long ago, seeing first-hand the victims of those circumstances in injured hawks and falcons on just such a rescue. Now, Jeffrey hopes to spark a similar awareness in his fellow Rhode Islanders. "When people learn about plants and animals, they appreciate them. And once they appreciate them, they want to save them," says Mr. Hall. As no one in Rhode Island lives more than 20 minutes from an Audubon Society wildlife refuge, he's certain they can find ample opportunities to do so. In addition to conserving land for hikes and staring contest with owls, the Society boasts an Environmental Education Center, which hosts events, programs, and interactive exhibits year-round. For the Audubon Society to thrive, Jeffrey knows the organization's programs must inspire young stewards. "They'll grow up to be the voters who want to protect this land," he says. That's why, among the many programs guests can partake in, the society also offers birthday parties and kid-friendly classes.1401 Hope St, Rte 114Bristol, RI US
Aquidneck Island Land TrustRead MoreThe Aquidneck Land Trust began in 1990, when a group of local residents gathered together to dedicate itself to saving the natural character, economic value, and environmental health of Aquidneck Island. Since then, the organization has conserved more than 2,300 acres on 66 properties. Along with ongoing projects for Merritt Fund recipients, Aquidneck Land Trust's current priorities include completion of the Sakonnet Greenway Trail and conservation of 70-plus acres on Saint Mary's Church land. By working with landowners, foundations, government agencies, and communities, the organization aims to protect and conserve roughly 4,000 acres of open spaces.790 Aquidneck AvenueMiddletown, RI US

Newport Historical SocietyRead MoreWhen the Newport Historical Society and the Newport Restoration Foundation joined forces, the result was Newport History Tours. Founded to celebrate the region's rich and vibrant history, Newport History Tours designed more than a dozen tours that explore the city's landmarks, historic sites, and more than 300 pre-Revolutionary War–era buildings. The tours touch on just about every aspect of the city's past, with themes that range from the colonial era and Golden Age to prohibition smuggling, historical criminals, and lantern-lit holiday strolls.82 Touro StNewport, RI US

Sapphire Radeon HD 6990 4GB Video Card Review - Benchmarks - Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. 2Our Sapphire HD 6990 4GB has literally just arrived and we test it straight away to find out what kind of performance is on offer from this beast.
Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X.2
Version and / or Patch Used: Benchmark Demo
Timedemo or Level Used: Built-in Test
Developer Homepage: http://www.ubi.com/UK/default.aspx
Product Homepage: http://www.hawxgame.com/
Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. 2 is an arcade-style flight action game developed by Ubisoft Romania and published by Ubisoft. The game is the sequel to Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X., released in 2009.
The game begins with Colonel David Crenshaw participating in a routine patrol mission in the Middle East. After halting an insurgent attack, a volley of missiles is fired at the Air Force base that Crenshaw was stationed at, with one of the missiles disabling Crenshaw's aircraft, resulting Crenshaw being in enemy captivity. A joint strike force composed of the U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force, and a Ghost Recon squad executes an operation to rescue Crenshaw. In Scotland, Royal Navy Pilot Colin Munro encounters an unidentified passenger aircraft that explodes from an on-board bomb when undergoing training exercise. In Russia, an air force squadron led by Colonel Denisov and Captain Dmitri Sokov engages separatist aircraft but is ordered to retreat from the region after numerous Russian military installations have been attacked.
H.A.W.X. 2 does indeed tend to favor the NVIDIA offerings, but you can see here there's just some massive performance to be had from this card under this game.

And that man was Michael Jackson.

It can be a little jarring. But, it is time to shift gears and start hitting deadlines for the start of another Timber Rattlers baseball season.
It was a little easier coming back to the ballpark after the holidays this time because - as you see in the picture up top - there is almost no snow on the field. Believe me, I'll take another 87 days of at least 46 degrees.
The first few tasks have been taken care of for the start of the season. I have ordered my scorebooks. Next up is ordering a few of the Baseball America publications.
The groundwork has been prepared for a few projects. One is the day-by-day history of the Timber Rattlers. The other is the countdown to opening day feature. Both will be appearing over on Rattler Radio.
Soon it will be time for writing some articles for PLAYBALL! and some of the releases to announce the promotions and various other events that the team has coming up for the season.
On top of that, I will need to fight the losing battle of keeping my radio booth here organized.
But that is minor to what everyone else at the stadium is doing to get ready for the season.
Fang's Reading Club is in full swing and soon the team mascot will be going out to make appearances at area schools.
Tickets and advertising signs have to be sold. Pocket schedules and publications need to be designed and printed. Videos need to be produced and shot.
In short, the stadium that you see in the picture up top may look quiet and empty, but it is most definitely not that way.
Also, all of the important stuff will be getting done by everyone else while I just come in and mess around on my computer and take pictures of the field to document whether there is snow on the field or not for the next three months.
The days will continue to get longer as the sunshine sticks around more, but the next 87 days will absolutely fly by as the Rattlers front office spend the time to get the ballpark ready for the team and for you.
Make your plans to get out here. We'll be ready.

That term—Sports Tax—is not hyperbolic. In a week that saw Louisiana fork over $5 million to the NFL for the privilege of helping that league make big Super Bowl money, Sports Tax is the most accurate catch-all label for the four sets of levies the public is being made to shell out.
If you are a football fan and are appalled by what happened Sunday and want to find someone to blame, look in the mirror. It is the fans—in the stands and in front of their television sets—who have made football our national sport. Risk and injury are not just a part of the game, they are at its heart.

Canon Pixma Pro-1
What are you supposed to do once you've spruced up your pictures in Pixelmator? If you're going to print them out and you're looking for lab-like quality, you may want to consider Canon's upcoming Pixma Pro-1 Professional Inkjet Printer ($999). While the price tag is high, you're going to get really impressive prints out of this new model, which boasts a 12-ink system for astounding color accuracy.
On top of the standard cyan, magenta, yellow, and black, Canon adds red, photo cyan, photo magenta, photo black, matte black, gray, dark gray, light gray and a chroma optimizer—yes, that's a lot of colors. The result is an increased color gamut and improved skin tone reproduction. And the printer is reasonably fast too, producing a 13 x 19 print in four minutes and twenty seconds. While it's not for everyone, professional and prosumer photographers are going to love this printer when it's released.

Don't assume that this is the perfect time to buy a home.
It's easier today to get a student loan from a university's financial-aid office, but it's tough to decipher the hidden fees that you will pay.
The latest options that are designed to help to keep you in your home can work against you.
Insurers use credit scores and higher deductibles, and sell more policy add-ons to cull more cash from consumers.
Potential fees and security issues lurk down the road.
Banks are living high on the hog while consumers are hog-tied by exorbitant fees. The government can't be counted on to help.
Changes bring higher prices that might not be obvious.

New laws make estate planning trickier. Unscrupulous insurance agents and uninformed lawyers compound the problem.
More consumers must shop for health care, but unfortunately, resources to help you make sound decisions are limited.
Online shopping features offered by stores are meant to make customers feel as if they have the upper hand, but retailers benefit just as much.

Reforming the NSA
A Better Balance Between Security & Privacy?
The Editors
January 7, 2014 - 4:21pm
Many Americans were disturbed, and rightly so, by the extent of domestic electronic surveillance conducted by the National Security Agency as revealed in the classified material
leaked by Edward Snowden
. In spite of judicial and congressional oversight of the NSA's activities, the potential for abuse is great. To some extent, that danger is inherent in any clandestine government operation, but it is heightened by the way in which our private, work, and civic lives are increasingly being conducted electronically. Given that fact, it is even more important that transparency and accountability be built into the government's antiterrorism efforts, with firmer safeguards against unwarranted snooping. Few dispute the value of the NSA's capabilities in tracking the communications of groups who see themselves to be at war with the United States. Yet a better balance must be struck between privacy rights and the government's efforts to protect national security. No government can function without a measure of trust from its citizens; at the same time, it is the duty of every citizen to demand as full an accounting of the government's activities as possible.
Last month the
Presidential Review Group on Intelligence and Communications Technologies
released its recommendations
for reforming
the NSA's electronic data collection. President Obama has promised to respond to the report within the next few weeks. The president appears likely to adopt many of the commission's recommendations, as he should. Congress will also be asked to reform aspects of the Patriot and Foreign Intelligence Surveillance acts. It should. The three-hundred-page report does not call for wholesale changes at the NSA, but it does urge that steps be taken to limit the unsupervised reach of the NSA's operations and that the decisions of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court supervising the agency be made public.
The NSA program that has garnered most of the headlines and provoked the greatest concern is its collection of "telephony metadata"—that is, the records of virtually all the phone numbers and email addresses used by Americans. The content of phone conversations or emails cannot be accessed without approval of
the FISA court
. Those proceedings, however, remain secret. Currently, the NSA compels phone and internet companies to provide the metadata and keeps it for five years. According to the NSA, this bulk data collection can be combed through to reveal communication patterns and thus possible terrorist threats. However, the NSA was able to document only a few instances in which it actually searched these databases. Consequently, the review group recommends that this information remain in the hands of the private vendors, or a third party, and be accessed only by court order. NSA officials are concerned that this will hamper possible future investigations, but the tradeoff in greater public trust may be worth any delays involved.
The review group also urges that law enforcement agencies that work closely with the NSA, such as the FBI, get
FISA judge's order when demanding customer information from private companies. Under current law, the agencies can simply compel compliance by issuing a "National Security Letter" on their own (a "gag order" on the companies comes with the letter). Fifteen thousand such letters were issued in 2012. Judicial oversight of each investigation would be cumbersome, but some step toward greater accountability needs to be taken.
Especially promising is the proposal that a civil-liberties advocate be added to the FISA court to make sure Fourth Amendment privacy concerns are given due consideration. The review group also suggests that the now confidential rulings of the FISA courts be made public whenever possible, a change long overdue and essential to restoring public trust. Finally, all FISA judges are now appointed by the chief justice of the Supreme Court. To ensure greater ideological diversity, the panel wants more than one Supreme Court justice to select the judges. Despite his campaign promises, President Barack Obama has rarely shown the courage of his convictions in fully informing the American people about the government's antiterrorism initiatives.
The executive branch will inevitably want
as much control of the nation's security apparatus
as possible, and Congress is loath to appear "soft" on defense issues. But the reforms outlined above would still be important steps toward guarding against abuse and restoring public confidence in the integrity of the NSA. In a dangerous world, the United States
not about to abandon electronic surveillance abroad, which is the NSA's mandate. But national security means little if the methods used to keep the nation safe betray the fundamental democratic principles for which it stands. This was too often the case in the first, panicked response to the 9/11 attacks. Happily, a greater sense of political and moral equilibrium now prevails, and with it, one hopes, the confidence not to give up all privacy and liberty in the hopeless pursuit of perfect security.

WallachBeth Capital, the institutional brokerage/execution firm servicing hedge funds and sell-side proprietary trading desks, has expanded into exchange-traded funds.
According to Michael Wallach, the firm's co-founder and CEO, WallachBeth has appointed ETF industry veterans William Dersch, Michael McCoy, Andrew McOrmond and Scott Saunders as managing directors, to serve as the core foundation to WallachBeth's ETF team.
"As the trading market landscape continues to evolve, we're seeing a continuously increasing focus on strategies that not only incorporate, but often link exchange listed equity options, index products and ETFs," said Wallach.
"More importantly, and however transparent exchange-listed products may be, the fact is there are dozens of market centers and liquidity pools for these hedging products, and our role is to help clients' source liquidity and the best prevailing prices for hard to execute, and potentially market-impacting trades."

Ryan Gosling Astor Place Crime-Fighting Mystery Solved!
In a hilarious turn of events, journalism website OMGICU has located the woman who took the video of Ryan Gosling busting crimes on the streets of New York City, or someone who very much resembles Ryan Gosling, and interviewed her! In fact, it was Ryan Gosling, in so much as this woman, Valerie, is to be believed, and we'll largely believe her, because we would like this story to be true. Of interest: She did not even know who Ryan Gosling was, until it was pointed out by her wife that this was the fellow from The Notebook. Watch her interview here! (She comes on at 2:45.)
Astute local blogger EV Grieve (and his astute readers) had pointed out that the inception of the Ryan Gosling celebrity justice program couldn't possibly have happened as recently as last weekend, as initially rumored, because those Astor Place street cactuses (the colorful plastic things wrapped around light posts in the neighborhood) are not visible in the video. And he, and they, are correct! Valerie says it happened on June 24. Zip ties went up June 30th!
Also, it was a fight about a $10 painting. Ryan Gosling settled the debt! It was not staged! And, as Valerie herself points out, if she had stopped to call the cops, no one would have seen that video. Thank you, Valerie, for your good citizenship and the high standards herein exampled for future YouTube documentations. And thank you, Ryan Gosling, for yours.
Turns out, we love a solved mystery almost as much as we love a Ryan Gosling sighting.

Report: Rangers owner Dolan wants in on potential meeting with players
Dec 1, 2012, 5:29 PM EDT
If the players accept the league's offer to meet without head executives Gary Bettman and Donald Fehr, then New York Rangers owner James Dolan wants to be there, the New York Post's Larry Brooks reports.
Brooks lines up reasons why Dolan could be a difference-maker in those hypothetical meetings, most notably that the Rangers generate the league's second-most revenue and profits behind the Toronto Maple Leafs.
One might have the instinct to believe that Dolan would be pleased that Bettman wouldn't be in attendance; the two powerful individuals most notably butted heads regarding the team's Web site in 2007.
Brooks writes it might be more important is that Dolan – also owner of the New York Knicks – was a helpful factor in ending the NBA's lockout, though.
The source familiar with Dolan's thinking told The Post Dolan believes his relationship with the commissioner is immaterial given his substantial role in brokering an agreement between NBA owners and NBA players that ended that league's 2011-12 lockout last Dec. 8 and allowed for a 66-game season to commence on Christmas Day.
Either way, two things must happen for Dolan to be involved: the NHLPA must agree to meet and Bettman would need to OK Dolan's inclusion.
Still, it's interesting to note that a big market owner might just help end this thing – assuming that's what he would push for, of course.

bettman vs doan round 2. awesome.
I still think nhl will pick will be ed snider. although he's hawk like bettman he has more to lose in this situation because of comcast/nbc relationship. plus the players like him around the league and that article that he denied showed that he has a different philosophy than jacobs.
Owners have officially cracked.
- id4joey - Dec 1, 2012 at 6:09 PM
Jim, I don't believe for a minute that this meeting will happen.
- woodstakes - Dec 1, 2012 at 6:26 PM
I agree joey… I think Bettman is WAY to much of control freak to allow this to happen as it should happen. He would limit who gets to be in the meeting and moreover he would stifle any possible decent before they would be allowed in. When it should be ALL the owners with the assurance that ALL the owners can speak to the issues, not just a few owners who are like minded to Bettman. I've said this before and again I may be alone here, but I don't think many of the owners are OK with still having this lockout on the sticking points that still exist. I think many of them see a deal to be made here without the owners giving in to much.
- stakex - Dec 1, 2012 at 7:45 PM
Yes, because Bettman suggested something he never wants to happen. That makes a ton of sense….. in fantasy land.
Seriously, theres a lot of reason to hate Bettman (almost all of which is pre-lockout btw), but none of your statement makes any sense and is simple Bettman bashing for the sake of doing it.
- richter35lundqvist30 - Dec 1, 2012 at 11:37 PM
@Stake with all the Rhetoric you can't rule out him throwing out the idea just for a positive PR spin after the mediation disaster knowing it will never happen unless its on his terms.
- woodstakes - Dec 2, 2012 at 12:14 AM
Yeah stakex its not like Bettman ever did anything to undermine the majority of the owners… how many votes does he need to do anything again??? Hmmm, thats right not a majority… Yup he's never ever been shown to be a control freak about anything… What can the owners say about the lockout openly?? How much can Bettman fine his BOSSES?? Nice try man!
- coreydm80 - Dec 1, 2012 at 6:19 PM
I don't think the players are bright enough
- paperlions - Dec 1, 2012 at 6:21 PM
Why would Bettman have to be okay with Dolan attending? Bettman works for Dolan, not the other way around.
- id4joey - Dec 1, 2012 at 6:32 PM
woodstakes, c mon. Players can't even negotiate their own contracts.
- woodstakes - Dec 1, 2012 at 6:40 PM
Neither can the owners… they have GM's!
- id4joey - Dec 2, 2012 at 5:03 PM
Actually, owners have negotiated mega million and perhaps billion dollar business deals in between periods. That why they have GMs.
- bleed4philly - Dec 1, 2012 at 6:54 PM
The players agreed to a 50/50 split plus 393 million to honor players existing contracts. The owners want the 393 included in the 50/50, can't NBC or TSN just throw that extra amount in the deal? Ed Snider, owner of the Flyers and Comcast, you can't make that happen buddy?
- id4joey - Dec 1, 2012 at 6:55 PM
woodstakes, exactly. To each his own.
- rpiotr01 - Dec 1, 2012 at 11:45 PM
Dolan involved in talks = lockout over.
Dolan is a spoiled turd but he's a business man, and he knows that real business involves, ya know, doing things – to make, to sell etc. He wants to play, he'd help get something done.
Bettman will never allow it.
- acieu - Dec 2, 2012 at 12:54 PM
Not sure how a money flush team executive can understand the issues facing St. Louis, Nashville etc. He has no concept of having to manage the expenses and processes needed to keep a mid range or small revenue team alive. Of course if they lop off three or four of the weaker franachises maybe he could add benefit. The fact that he hasn't built any legacy in NYR is immaterial.

If you enjoy Thai and you're in Auburn this is the place to go. Decent portions, affordable prices. Sometimes the wait can be a bit long, but overall this place is solid. Tom ga gai is top notch, so is there Drunken Noodle (Pad Khee Mao).
Tried for the first time after a recommendation from a friend. Food was very good and they have a large selection of beer and wine. Definite must try if you like Thai food.
Generous portions, reasonable prices, Great food. Pad Eggplant, Drunken Noodles, Tom Kha soup, and cucumber salad were delicious. Don't let the storefront appearance discourage you. The restaurant has been renovated very nicely on the interior and has a very pleasant atmosphere.
After eating out at Rouen Thai and some of the other Thai restaurants in Roseville, we thought we had tasted the best the area had to offer. Then the trip to Auburn. Ordered the fig curry, and had some of my friend's pumpkin curry. Wow. Really good, fresh ingredients and very tasty. They also have a great micro brew beer selection.
We had a friendly welcome from the manager, who spent a lot of time explaining the menu to us, as there were some ingredients that were new to us (although we have much experience with Thai food).We had a very good Pad Thai, a Jungle Curry (no coconut milk), and a Pork and Green Bean Stir Fry. All were very tasty, and suitably "hot". A wide selection of beers is available to cool you down.

July 22, 2014 - I have had my Serenity Prayer Dog Tag Necklace for a long time now. I put it on a different stronger chain, but wear it every day!! LOVE LOVE LOVE
April 5, 2014 - Beautiful! It's a bit smaller than I thought, so in fact, nicer than I expected! I'd planned to give it to my Marine son upon completion of his 7 yrs with the Corps, but, might just keep it for me, as the chain is more delicate in appearance, though strong! It may work better for a man on a key chain .It's a great idea for a gift to swap out Dog Tags when a Service Member becomes a Vet!Love it!
July 10, 2013 - I love this so much I bought 3 One for my brother and sister and me. I put my moms ring on the chain with it who passed this year on mothers day . It really means the world to me it feels like she is right there close to my heart.The chain is thin but still strong might be short for some men and Such a great price , It doesnt look or feel cheap very very good quality
March 23, 2013 - I ordered 2 one for me and one for my bf as a valentines day gift and their great quality! :)) im satisfied with the tags, I def recommend and I will buy again from here !
March 3, 2013 - this is a beautiful necklace-it means so much to me

Smoltz may pull a Pedro
Jan 28, 2010, 10:26 AM EDT
The Daily News' Adam Rubin reports that John Smoltz is considering pulling a Rogers Clemens or a Pedro Martinez or whatever you want to call it and sitting out until midseason before signing with someone.
From a maximization of value perspective this makes perfect sense for a guy like Smoltz. Right now everyone things their rotation looks more or less dandy. Optimism reigns. Why not wait until that young kid gets shelled a few times and the number three guy has tightness in his elbow? In the meantime, Smoltz can further hone his golf game in anticipation of joining the Senior Tour one day.
- Bobby Townsend - Jan 28, 2010 at 10:45 AM
Only difference is Pedro can still a little while Smoltz is just looking to continue to steal money.
- Bobby Townsend - Jan 28, 2010 at 10:48 AM
pitch a little. Sorry for the oversight
- carlos - Jan 28, 2010 at 1:16 PM
I think he just refuses to quit. Even when all signs point to stop.
- Cru11 - Jan 28, 2010 at 1:44 PM
I'd love an AL East team to sign him so the Red Sox can finally get revenge for his sorry-ass performance. Hell, throw Brad Penny in there too.
- Bobby Townsend - Jan 28, 2010 at 2:37 PM
From a legal standpoint, Smoltz should be America's Most Wanted while from a baseball standpoint, he should be America's Most UNWanted. Fair enough!!!

The 'white' slave children of New Orleans: Images of pale mixed-race slaves used to drum up sympathy among wealthy donors in 1860s
When eight former slaves aimed to drum up support for struggling African-American schools in the 1860s, they believed they had just the thing.
In order to garner sympathy - and funds - from rich northerners as they toured the country, organisers from New Orleans portrayed the slaves as white for a propaganda campaign, using four children with mixed-race ancestry and pale complexions.
They believed the white faces of Charles Taylor, Rebecca Huger, Rosina Downs and Augusta Broujey would encourage donors to sympathise with the plight of recently-emancipated slaves and give more generously.
Propaganda: Four child slaves of mixed-race heritage with pale skin were used in pictures to raise funds for African-American schools following Emancipation
The youngsters are pictured together and with dark-skinned children in sepia-tinged photographs entitled 'Emancipated Slaves'. Dressed in dapper clothing, they are photographed wrapped in American flags above text such as: 'These children were turned out of [a] hotel on account of color'.
The images were mass-produced for a fundraising campaign following Abraham Lincoln's emancipation of slaves in 1863.
Almost immediately after the law came into practice, Northerners and abolitionists set up relief organisations, which battled to establish schools and provide other forms of support - but their resources were limited.
They soon discovered it was near-impossible to find sympathy and support in a war-torn and racially-prejudiced county.
Campaign: In some, the 'white' children are pictured with darker-skinned former slaves. Organisers hoped their skin would drum up sympathy from northerners
'Learning is wealth': The money raised from the images, which sold for 25 cents each, went towards educating freed slaves in New Orleans, Louisiana
To keep Louisiana's schools - comprised of nearly 10,000 pupils and nearly half the state's number of black children - running, organisations launched a propaganda campaign. It was run by the National Freedman's Association, the American Missionary Association and officers from the Union Army.
They gathered five children - four with pale complexions - and three adults who had all been slaves and sent them to the North on a publicity tour, according to Celia Caust-Ellenbogen, author of White Slaves.
Joined by three former adult slaves - Wilson, Mary and Robert - and Colonel George Hanks of the Corps d'Afrique, they posed for photographs in New York and Philadelphia.
A story by Harper's Weekly at the time called the children 'perfectly white' and 'very fair'. It also noted the fifth child, Isaac, was 'a black boy of eight years; but none the less intelligent than his whiter companions'.
Freed: Many of the photographs focus on 11-year-old Rebecca. 'To all appearances she is perfectly white,' wrote a publication at the time, Harper's Weekly
Troupe: Along with the three other 'white', one darker-skinned child and three adult, Rebecca travelled around the north to drum up funds and support
The publication described each of the former slaves. In the section about the adults, Wilson Chinn was described as 'about 60 years old' with the initials of his former 'owner' - a sugar planter - branded on his head with a hot iron.
Mary Johnson, a former cook, was described as having scars covering her arms and back. They were the result of cuts given to her by her 'mistress' and 'master' after she 'was half an hour behind time in bringing his five o'clock cup of coffee'. She later ran away from the family.
The third adult, Robert Whitehead, was a preacher who had been sold for $1,525 as a house and ship painter. 'The reverend gentleman can read and write well, and is a very stirring speaker,' the magazine explained. He later enlisted in the army.
Isaac White was the child with a complexion darker than the other children. Harper's writes how 'he has been in school about seven months, and I venture to say that not one boy in fifty would have made as much improvement in that space of time'.
One of the 'white' children, 11-year-old Rebecca Huger, had been a slave in her father's house. 'To all appearance she is perfectly white,' the publication writes. Augusta Broujey, nine, was also owned by a family member - her half-brother - and was born to a woman who was 'almost white'.
Saved: One of the 'white' former slaves was Charles Taylor, left, who had been sold into slavery twice, once by his father. Six-year-old Rosa, right, also featured
Patriotic: The photo aimed to align the children with those of white northerners. The text indicated that treating them any differently was shocking (right)
Blonde six-year-old Rosina Downs came from a home where her mother 'has hard work to support her family'.
The only 'white' boy, Charles Taylor, had been sold twice as a slave - once by his father. 'The boy is decidedly intelligent,' the magazine writes.
Each photograph was mass-printed to the size of a calling card and sold for 25 cents, Caust-Ellenbogen writes. Each card explained the money would go to schools in Louisiana 'devoted to the education of colored people'.
Kathleen Collins, author of Portraits of Slave Children, said it was hoped that 'these enigmatic portraits of Caucasian-featured children' would arouse 'Northern benefactors to contribute to the future of a race to which these children found themselves arbitrarily confined'.
Of the series, at least 22 different prints remain in existence today.
