We Are Survivors Survivor of childhood molestation, rape and domestic violence It wasn’t until the end of my relationship with my ex-husband that things turned physical. When I realized that one of us was going to die, I knew I needed to leave. I met him in college in the early ‘90s. He was the captain of the football team. From early on, he was very controlling and verbally and emotionally abusive. “You’re stupid,” he’d say. “No one else is going to want to be with you.” It was my first adult relationship, and I didn’t realize love wasn’t meant to feel like that. The verbal assaults turned physical. It started off with yelling and pushing. Then the pushing got harder. I decided to leave for the night. He flew into this rage and from the look in his eyes; I just knew that something was different. He grabbed me by my hair and pulled me back into the house. He ordered our two kids to go upstairs. Once we were inside, he started punching me. We were in the laundry room and he grabbed shoes and boots and used them to hit me in the face. He jumped on my ribcage and cracked my rib. He strangled me until I saw stars. I was sure I was going to die. He pulled me into the living room and pointed his gun at me for hours. He loaded and unloaded it, ranting about what was wrong with me. The next morning, the first thing he said was that I owed him an apology for almost making him kill me. He didn’t let me leave the house for three days because of all the bruises. After I was allowed to leave the house again, he warned me that if I 5
told anyone or left him, he would hunt me down. He was going to shoot me. He was going to paralyze me. He was going to throw acid on my face. He was going to slit my throat. It worked. I didn’t tell a single person for five months. I knew if I did leave, he was capable of following through with the threats he was making. I was paralyzed with fear. Before the severe physical abuse, my reasons for staying were different. I thought I could still try to make the relationship work, and that it was better for the kids to have both parents. I talked myself into putting up with his behavior. But once the physical abuse accelerated, it was pure fear that kept me there. And that fear kept me silent for a long time. Finally, I came to an epiphany. I realized that either he was going to kill me or I was going to kill him. I was always on edge, planning how to defend myself if he attacked me with a gun. I broke my silence and told my mom what was happening. We quickly began making an exit plan. My mom opened up a bank account for me and I started putting money into it. When I was at work, I would go online and research resources. On my lunch break, I’d run home and take little things I knew I needed, personal items, clothes, photos and bring them to my mom’s house. I made copies of all my impor-
tant documents and put them back in their place. In the three weeks between when I told her and when I fled, we made all the preparations we could. In November, I filed for a protection order. The day it was going to be served, I picked my kids up from school and took off to my sister’s in Canada. I knew it was too dangerous to be near him after leaving. He was completely blindsided. He thought he was 100 percent in control of me, and that he would have that control forever. But he was wrong. I escaped. When I returned to our town a few weeks later, I had a new place to live. I never returned to him. It’s important to emphasize here that I did exactly what people say you should do. I left. I contacted a domestic violence resource center. I made a safety plan. I filed a restraining order. I found somewhere else to live. My employer moved me to a new building so my ex couldn’t find me. But still I wasn’t safe. Actually, things got much worse. People always say, “Why don’t you just leave?” They fail to understand that leaving doesn’t necessarily stop the abuse. Women are at the highest risk of being killed when they leave their abusive partners. Leaving means opening yourself up to incredible danger. Once he lost his sense of control over me, things escalated. He immediately began stalking me. He
By Wanda McKinley
would drive by my house. Call me over and over and describe how he would kill me. The protection order did nothing to stop him. I can’t count how many times he violated it. When I would call the police, they seemed almost annoyed. If you haven’t been assaulted, they’d say, there’s nothing we can do. Lots of times, they wouldn’t even come. One time, I came in to make a police report after a particularly scary incident, and the officer asked me why I was there. I told him, and he said to me: “Well, what did you do? There’s always two sides of the story.” I was in tears. This was after a year of being threatened and stalked, and I was being blamed? But then the officer noticed something outside the window. “What kind of car does your husband drive?” he asked me. “A black Toyota,” I said. My ex was idling outside. At that point, a light bulb went on in the cop’s head. Eventually he went to prison for aggravated stalking. Since he’s been inside, he has told inmates that he is planning to kill me as soon as he gets out and that they will see him on the news one day soon. He was also caught trying to solicit inmates to murder me for $50,000. He will be eligible for parole in 12 months. I left him, but I’m still terrified. No one should have to live like this. If you have a survival story to tell, let me share it. If you have any questions please contact me, Wanda McKinley at 214-454-2933 and/or wearesurvivorsfoundation@ gmail.com.

Sports with Bill Casey “Hott Doc” Blair
Bill Blair
On May 30, 1906, the InterScholastic Athletic Association of Middle Atlantic States (I.S.A.A.) took root with its first event, a track meet, at Howard University. The I.S.A.A. was the first allblack athletic conference. The event and the conference were masterminded by Edwin Henderson. The meet itself was a great success, drawing hundreds of athletes from the entire surrounding area. Edwin B. Henderson, the mastermind. Henderson and his main collaborator, Garnet
March 3, 2017
C. Wilkinson, had tapped into a vast, unsatisfied craving for formal sports training and athletic competition among black students in the racially segregated Washington, D.C. Public Schools. For example, black athletes were not allowed to compete in local white-run Amateur Athletic Union events. Yet, because their priorities were elsewhere, schools didn’t offer their students much as far as recreational activities and couldn’t financially support their own athletic programs. “Too little attention has been given to physical education by institutions of learning for colored youths,” Henderson complained. Wilkinson was a $675-a-year Latin and mathematics teacher who had been Henderson’s instructor at
the illustrious M Street High School in D.C. Garnet C. Wilkinson,the brilliant promoter. An 1898 graduate of M Street with degrees from Oberlin College and the Howard University Law School, Wilkinson was a brilliant promoter and organizer – he would eventually become a principal of Washington’s highly regarded Armstrong Technical as well as M Street (by then renamed Dunbar High School). In addition to his highly academic background, Wilkinson also had a passion for sports, so he was a natural fit with Henderson’s efforts in physical education. As the result of the formation
of the I.S.A.A., various African American basketball teams and players from schools, athletic clubs, churches, colleges, and Colored Y.M.C.A. branches began to emerge in and around Washington, and along the East Coast. I.S.A.A. basketball games launched the spread of the young sport among African Americans. “Black basketball” was born. A thought had become a thing, in a beautiful expression of how the mind can manifest reality. When you watch the often selfabsorbed players, owners, commentators, league big shots, and front row celebs during the N.B.A. Playoffs this week, remember these humble pioneers. This week, 102 years ago, they made history now.

The Shortcomings of a Short-sighted Immigration Policy
At the onset of President Trump’s campaign, Mr. Trump painted Mexican immigrants with a broad and nefarious brush, demonizing them as aggravated felons whose crimes include murder, drug and illegal firearm trafficking, and rape. Although several studies have repeatedly indicated that undocumented immigrants are not disproportionately responsible for crime, this unfortunate sentiment underscores public misperceptions that can influence immigration policies. Now as Commander in Chief, President Trump stands ready to deliver on his campaign’s tough talk on undocumented immigration by implementing increasingly hostile immigration policies. President Trump’s efforts to remove undocumented immigrants and crackdown on undocumented immigration have been selfdescribed as a “military operation”. I do not support any efforts to militarize our immigration enforcement in the United States. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Border Patrol are civilian organizations charged with enforcing federal law surrounding border control and are mandated to carry out that specific task. State and local law enforcement personnel charged with the duty to “protect and serve” their respective communities should be focused on promoting local public safety and not be coerced into unfunded mandates to conduct federal immigration enforcement. Having state and local law enforcement personnel enforce federal immigration laws also erodes the delicate trust that exists between local law enforcement and the communities they serve. Building a wall to keep out illegal immigrants is not a novel idea. In fact, President George W. Bush signed the Secure Fence Act of 2006 to authorize construction of a fence along the U.S.-Mexico border. Currently, 613 miles of fencing exist on the border. However, a border wall or fence will not achieve the goal that President Trump seeks to accomplish and I disagree with its premise to keep all immigrants 13
out of our country. It did not work under President Bush and will not work under President Trump. Refusing entry to people who seek safety from danger and violence is anti-American and unconscionable. Furthermore, building a 2,000 mile long wall along our southern border is not only a knee jerk reaction to our issues with immigration, it is fiscally irresponsible. The wall’s construction alone would cost American taxpayers (make no mistake it will be the American taxpayer who foots the bill) at least $12 billion, with some estimates approaching upwards of $25 billion. Maintenance thereafter would cost another $750 million a year. We simply cannot afford to pay for the wall while our bridges, roads, and other infrastructure continue to dangerously deteriorate due to decades of neglect. The moral case against President Trump’s immigration policies is obvious, and the economic arguments against it are daunting. His repeated attempts to impugn the reputation of immigrants living in this country and his relentless condemnation of individuals from varying backgrounds or nationalities is contrary to our values as a nation. As President Trump moves to place the full force of the federal government
behind the mass deportation of undocumented immigrants and the construction of a border wall, the time to act on comprehensive immigration reform is now. Although there are many areas of disagreement, there must be a healthy debate on a reform plan. Unilateral executive orders and knee-jerk responses rooted in prejudice will not solve our problems. Instead, they will only result in families being torn apart and violations of due-process rights along the way. Walls, barriers, and military patrols will only force those immigrants to utilize ever more dangerous routes and increase the number of people who die in search of an opportunity to feed and clothe their families. Comprehensive immigration reform, not constructing yet another barrier, is the best solution to resolve this issue. I challenge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to come together to create a truly comprehensive plan that creates a reasonable path to citizenship while upholding the law of the land.
