ing are ranked first and third in Texas, respectively.

“It is with great pleasure that I recognize the significant achievements of The School for the Talented and Gifted and the School of Science and Engineering for being recognized as the best in in our nation by the prestigious U.S. News & World Report,” said Congresswoman Johnson. “Because of the impressive emphasis the School for the Talented and Gifted places on a well-rounded education, it is no surprise they are recognized for this honor. And the students at the School of Science and Engineering are more than prepared for college from the training received and are our next young leaders driving innovation. I know I speak for all of Dallas when I say we are proud of the faculty and staff for their commitment to a quality education that can serve as a model for schools across the nation.”

Black Caucus to Trump: Follow our lead Melissa Nann Burke, Detroit News Washington Bureau

Washington — Rep. Brenda Lawrence, a Southfield Democrat, was among a half-dozen leaders of the Congressional Black Caucus who met Wednesday with President Donald Trump at the White House, telling him to follow their lead if he’s serious about addressing issues affecting the African-American community.

They delivered a 130-page policy document on African-American history and proposed solutions for advancing black families, such as summer job programs for youth and investing in transportation, education and job creation, Lawrence said.

They referenced the pitch that Trump made in his campaign to black and Hispanic voters, describing them as living in poverty in cities that are like “war zones.” “What do you have to lose?” Trump asked.

“We were very clear with the president that his rhetoric and his ‘what do you have to lose?’ comments and depicting African-Americans as broke, unemployed, living in crime-ridden areas, was a generalization that was hurtful,” Lawrence said in an interview.

The caucus leaders conveyed that Trump’s comments criticizing President Barack Obama created anxiety in the black community, and suggested Trump’s rhetoric about Muslims might be fueling anti-Muslim crime, Lawrence said.

“We said we need you to understand that has to stop. He did not push back. He listened. It was a first step. It was not a warm-fuzzy meeting, but it was about business,” Lawrence said.

Lawrence, whose district includes Hamtramck, Pontiac and parts of Detroit, is the secretary of the Congressional Black Caucus and sits on the group’s executive committee.

She said caucus leaders also stressed how Trump’s budget plan would cut programs that work in communities to reduce crime, and said the proposed budget does not invest in opportunities to help the poor.

Lawrence said she stressed to Trump the importance of investing in infrastructure, especially after the crisis in Flint, where families still are recovering from lead contamination of their drinking water.

Rep. Cedric L. Richmond, a Louisiana Democrat, said Tuesday that caucus members heard concerns from their constituents and others about the Trump administration, and were split on whether the caucus should meet with the president.

MY DAY

Black Police In America

“There is no better time than now for this electrifying, clear and much-needed volume” writesRobert B. Ingram, former President of the National Conference of Black Mayors. “Black Police in America” is a book written

by W. Marvin Delaney and traces the growth, disappearance and resurgence of the African American presence in police forces combined with changes in black influence on the political front.

Equally as interesting is “Challenges to Control” written by Atlanta’s former Mayor Maynard Jackson, on the politics of police reform.

This week I found my way over

8

Greater Cornerstone Baptist Church Annual Festival & Health Fair

to the Black Police Association of Greater Dallas, 211 Centre Street, Dallas, 75208, looking for someone to talk to about the police pension, most definitely the number one “hot topic” in neighborhoods.

In addition, the floodgates “runneth over” about the association’s endorsements of select candidates that are creating a lot of synergy in all voting communities locally and beyond.

Within a few hours Sergeant Smith, Chair of the Political Action Committee (PAC), sent a text with his cell phone number.

Huh, I thought, this is going much better than expected. I was impressed that this group had a political action agenda and a working committee. WOW!!!

The sergeant, who has been a police officer for 23 years, was direct, in deliberate command with

blunt truth. The cadence of his voice was one of genuine concern for a city he loves to serve and protect.

“We are losing good officers” he said with backup statistics. More than one time he said ‘we believe in the citizens.’

We discussed the open recruitment for officers from the City of San Antonio and other municipalities. . . offering more money, respect and security. . . just “come to work for us.”

I agree with the Sergeant, it is not ok to lose good officers and it is darn embarrassing for another city to come on your turf. . . put up a billboard for your officers, all because city elected officials will not find a solution or attempt to.

Our men and women in blue should be paid salaries complimenting the best that Dallas has to

offer. Dallas is indisputably, one of the greatest cities in the USA. We have a state-of-the-art police training facility with robots and one of the most comprehensive 911 Systems on the planet. We built a thousand room hotel and convention hall to attract and compete for the world’s largest conferences.

And with DFW Airport ranking as one of the busiest airports, we have it all.

Our conversation moved to the “boldface” loud endorsement of former City Council Tennell Atkins who, by the way, received the endorsement of Chief David Brown, Dallas’ former Police Chief. The Sergeant did not mince his words.

“Some politicians you cannot talk to, some do not listen.”

He went on to explain that Mr. Atkins not only has the knowledge

and experience, but long before the problem became a humiliating reality, Mr. Atkins had the courage to render a warning about the pension fund for fireman and police. It fell on deaf ears. Now, former mayors are more concerned about their legacies than the future of public safety.

Remember. . . my brothers and sisters of Dallas, what the sergeant said, “We believe in the citizens.”

Call your city council. Call the Mayor’s office and voice your thoughts on the pension and adequate salaries for the police and fire rescue. Please vote. All politics are local. Please vote.

Target Sponsors Dallas Black Dance Theatre In-School Dance Residency Program Dallas, TX - Target is sponsoring the In-School Dance Residency dance classes led by Dallas Black Dance Theatre (DBDT) that run from September 2016 - May 2017. DBDT partners with the Dallas Independent School District to provide 700 students in nine schools, class sessions that integrate dance with K-12 curriculum. The goals of the program include: To motivate at-risk students to become active participants in the educational process.

To enhance creative thinking, problem-solving, risk-taking, teamwork and self-esteem.

To apply knowledge learned in dance exercises to traditional classroom learning.

Dallas Black Dance Theatre tailors every residency to meet the specific academic challenges faced by each school. DBDT instructors work closely with the teachers to construct a plausible strategy that addresses the requisites and needs of the individual student. Dance sessions integrate math, explore geometry and arithmetic through embodying shapes, angles and equations. Based on the science curriculum, students investigate anatomy and physics by questioning their bodies' movements. Students equally discover new cultures through African dance by learning to identify distinct characteristics of tribal dances, as well as geography of the country or region in social studies.

"The residency not only integrates dance with math, science and social studies, it also offers students an APRIL 28, 2017
