The staff and management of the South Carolina Black Pages express warm thanks to everyone who helped make the 2016-17 South Carolina Black Pages a success. We also utilize this page to emphatically convey special sincere thanks to our major corporate advertisers. The involvement of major corporations clearly indicates their willingness to support Black business development while marketing quality products and services. The reinvestment of a portion of revenues back into the local Black community makes good business sense for major corporations and is a smart investment. This investment is also indicative of a very strong commitment to the development of a more prosperous community in general, thereby promoting a better quality of life for everyone. Again, we thank you.

Thank You!

“CELEBRATING 25 YEARS OF SERVICE”

From the Publisher Celebrating 25 Years! As we reflect over the past 25 years, we’re so grateful for so much and for allowing us to make a difference in lives of so many! It is almost impossible to conceive that 25 years have passed since the day we opened our first office in South Carolina with the grand idea of promoting economic empowerment via a resource guide/directory of minority owned businesses. The fact that the Black Pages concept not only survived but sustained significant growth during that time is a testament to all who have supported it either as advertisers or consumers…..for that, we’re eternally grateful. There were many who stated the concept would never work, the community would never utilize the publication or questioned the viability of such a concept and 25 years later they’ve been proven wrong. While much has changed during that time, Thomas Media Group has remained true to its mission which is to educate, enlighten and empower the community. From three regional publications to one for the entire state, the evolution of the Black Expo, Black Pages Mobile App, digital marketing, online presence, the annual “Top 20 under 40” and so much more started with the idea of moving a community and state forward by focusing on the growth and development of minority owned businesses. There are so many stories and successes to point to over the years which would highlight our impact on the State however the greatest among them all is the fact that so many bought into the concept and supported the idea of utilizing minority owned businesses. We thank God first and foremost for sustaining not only us but our advertisers and the community at large. Second, thanks to each every advertiser for allowing us to serve you during this time. Your investment allowed us to make a difference. Third and just as important, thank you to all who have supported the advertisers in the Black Pages over the years……quite frankly, without your utilization, we would be just another magazine. The continued viability and relevancy of the Black Pages concept rests with you……we simply ask that you continue to reinvest in our community by supporting these businesses and sharing that you found them in the Black Pages! When we started 25 years ago, often times we would utilize the Victor Hugo quote, “There is no idea more powerful than one whose time has come”. Thank you South Carolina for making this resource a powerful tool whose impact has been far reaching!

Respectfully, Darrin Thomas, President

Growing up in Decatur, Ala., Lesslie Terrell had a love of airplanes and the wonder of flight, and thought about one day becoming a pilot – a dream inspired by her father’s airline career.

A graduate of Auburn University, Lesslie joined The Boeing Company nine years ago as an Industrial Engineer on the 777 program. As luck would have it, she had the chance almost immediately to transition to the 787 program and come to South Carolina as part of a special assignment. She has called the Lowcountry home ever since. Lesslie remembers building the solid foundation for her rise to a management position as vividly as she recalls the historic groundbreaking for Boeing South Carolina’s Final Assembly and Delivery operations in 2009. Today, Lesslie is an industrial engineering and Business Management manager in charge of implementing plans and building a team to support the site’s new 396,000 square foot decorative paint facility, which will be fully operational by the end of 2016.

The Importance of Filing your Income Tax Return with a Professional Yvette Jones, CPA, Jones Financial Services

There are countless reasons why filing your business and personal income tax returns accurately and timely are so important. Outside of the standard compliance issue that we are all faced with, taxpayers must also consider the effect on business financing, credit issues, governmental contracts, health insurance, and even college funding availability for our children. We have all heard the commercials on how ABC or XYZ tax professional can assist us with getting out of tax debt through negotiations with the proper taxing authorities. It has been my experience that if you owe the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and have the where with all to pay, the IRS will not reduce any liability unless you have some incredible life hardships. Most liability reductions are found through filing accurate returns. When we hear someone being assessed a tax debt of $50,000, this is generally due to the

Income Expenses deducted Profit Standard Deduction Exemption Deduction Taxable Income Income Tax Self Employed Tax (15% of Profit Total Tax Penalties (20%) Interest (3yr@6%) *TOTAL BILL

IRS, filing a return on the tax payerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behalf. In this case, no allowable, ordinary, and necessary expenses were taken. Taxpayer has small business and earns $120,000 through a contract in 2011. They are issued a 1099Misc, which is reported to the IRS. The tax payer does not file return that is due April 15, 2012, because they could not pull information together and/or feel overwhelmed by the process. (First problem â&#x20AC;&#x201C; should have hired a bookkeeper) After many notices, the IRS files a return assessing the taxpayer $54,648. Proper filing would have only the tax filer $5,400 maximum. If filer had dependents, educational credits, or itemized deductions, there may have been a refund due. The illustration assumes the individual is single with no dependents or other available tax

credits. The illustration also portrays the $120,000 as the sole income stream and that the tax payer is claiming the standard deduction as oppose to itemized deductions. Since penalties and interest are generated based upon amount of tax liability, the lower actual tax debt produces a total bill approximately $47,000 less than that of one assessed by the IRS. Using a tax professional that can look at your business holistically from the source document transactions (bookkeeping), proper adjustments (accounting), tax return preparation, and representing you in front of the tax authorities with confidence (attorney, Certified Public Accountant (CPA), or an enrolled agent), is invaluable.

“CELEBRATING 25 YEARS OF SERVICE” Are you FULLY Covered? By: Tiffany R. Spann-Wilder, Esquire

Often times when I meet with a new client who has been in an auto accident and ask them about their car insurance coverage, I get the response, “Oh, I have full coverage!” The term is often used to refer to the combination of collision and comprehensive policies. However, there is no such thing as full coverage auto insurance, you must select various coverages to make up a policy. However, there are certain options needed for auto policies to give you the most complete coverage available to all possibilities that could happen to you and your family on the roadway. Each person on the road is required to have Liability Coverage and Uninsured Motorist Coverage (UM). Liability provides coverage to anyone you may injure in an automobile collision as well as their property. Uninsured Motorist Coverage (UM) protects you in the event another driver hits you and does not have auto insurance. With UM coverage, your insurance company will take care of your vehicle and your bodily injury claim. Each state has a minimum required Liability/UM coverage to be considered adequately insured. South Carolina minimum coverage is $25,000/$50,000/$25,000, where the first 25K represents the most that any one person in the accident can recover for bodily injury; the 50K represents the

most money that will be paid out of the policy to cover multiple persons injured, and the last 25K represents the most that will be paid for property damage. Insure yourself beyond the coverage as a precaution against what could happen and be sure to have all the same coverage on all of the cars you own. An optional coverage that should be purchased is Underinsured Motorist Coverage (UIM). This coverage is a “safety net” coverage when your medical bills total more than the liability limits of the at-fault driver. If you are injured in an auto collision and the person who hit you does not have enough liability coverage on their insurance policy to cover all of your medical bills and your pain and suffering, you can reach over to your policy and seek the difference you need to cover your bills from your UIM coverage. Medical Payment Coverage (Med-Pay) and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) are sometimes used interchangeably and the protection can vary from one insurer to the other, but essentially both are designed to be a type of health insurance for vehicle occupants. The amount you can recover is set by the amount you purchase and is typically sold in increments of $500 or $1000. While Med-pay is used to reimburse you for medical expenses, PIP policies may be more expansive and may cover not only medical expenses but lost wages, child or attendant care as you recover, and even funeral expenses. Both will pay out if you are in your own vehicle,

BLACKPAGESSOUTH.COM

some will cover you if you are in another person’s vehicle as the coverage may follow the policy owner or his household members, and some will cover you if you are a pedestrian hit by a car. I also recommend that you purchase Rental Reimbursement and Towing Coverage as these can be lifesavers in the event you find yourself in a dispute about which insurance company is responsible for the damages or if you are hit by an uninsured driver. You can continue with your day to day routine without the inconvenience of not having a means of transportation. The cost for rental is typically a few dollars more than a minimum policy, but it is money well spent if you ever need it. A serious accident can turn your life inside out – while you can’t account for “the other guy” you can make sure that you have sufficient coverage to be made whole if you are ever injured. So, pull out your automobile policy and make sure that you are “fully covered”. If not, contact your insurance agent and add the missing optional coverage items and drive with the assurance that you are “truly covered” for whatever may happen on the roadways. If you are injured, Spann Wilder Law can help you maximize your insurance recovery and get a just result. Call us at (843) 266-7792.

“CELEBRATING 25 YEARS OF SERVICE” Claflin University Professional and Continuing Studies Offers Accelerated Degree Programs for Non-Traditional Students

Since its inception in 1869, Claflin University has offered highquality academic programs at its main campus in Orangeburg, S.C. Nearly a decade ago, the University’s Center of Professional and Continuing Studies (CPCS) began classes at Fort Jackson Army Base in Columbia. And in the fall of 2014, Claflin launched its online degree program, which provides students balancing families and careers the convenience of earning a Claflin degree without attending classes in Orangeburg or Ft. Jackson-Columbia. Dr. Cindye Richburg, executive director of the Center for Professional and Continuing Studies, is looking for potential students who realize it’s never too late to achieve their goal of earning a college degree. Richburg was appointed three years ago after working at Morris College. She served as director of the management instituteadvance program, a degree completion program for nontraditional students. “Claflin is embracing new digital and online delivery tools to make educational opportunities available to students wherever they are and whenever they need it,” said Richburg. “Our broader reach is contributing to the

American dream of access and availability of education to an increasing population.” Claflin’s Fort Jackson location at the Army Continuing Education Center offers bachelor’s degrees in criminal justice and organizational management. The organizational management program is accredited by the

“Claflin is embracing new digital and online delivery tools to make educational opportunities available to students wherever they are and whenever they need it,” said Richburg. “Our broader reach is contributing to the American dream of access and availability of education to an increasing population.” Accreditation Council of Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) and the criminal justice program ranks among the Top 25 Best Value Colleges for Criminal Justice (Source: College Navigator). Claflin Online also gives students an opportunity to earn bachelor’s degrees in criminal justice, organizational management, nursing (RN to BSN) and psychology and

BLACKPAGESSOUTH.COM

master’s degrees in business administration (MBA) and education in curriculum and instruction (M.Ed.). In an effort to increase awareness and enrollment through the CPCS, partnership agreements were established with Blue Cross and BlueShield and its subsidiaries, Midlands Technical College, Orangeburg-Calhoun Technical College, S.C. Department of Juvenile Justice, Palmetto Health and its affiliates, Richland County School District 1, Richland County School District 2, Richland County Sheriff’s Office, Orangeburg Consolidated School District 5, Orangeburg County Sheriff's Office, Sumter County Sherriff’s Office, Fort Jackson Military Base, Trane Incorporation, South Carolina National Guard, Sysco Corporation -- a global leader in the distribution and marketing of food products. These agreements include “Partnership Scholarships” that provide tuition assistance and discounts for their employees. “We looked at agencies, industries and two-year colleges we believe are attracted to the majors within the program” said Richburg. “We anticipate growth in developing partnerships and our enrollment because the benefits to students who complete our programs are almost immediate.” “They can use

SOUTHCAROLINA BLACK PAGES their new credentials to acquire a promotion in their current position or start a whole new career.”

the program went from an expanded eight-week format as opposed to the five-week sessions from previous years.

Bank of America and the Bernard Osher Foundation have established endowments for need-based scholarships and tuition assistance, specifically for Claflin’s non-traditional students. Federal and state financial aid, scholarships from organizations such as the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) and other tuitionsupport programs are available to non-traditional students if they meet the requirements. Military personnel are also eligible for scholarships and tuition discounts.

“We looked at best practices and in comparison, the eight-week sessions give students more time to recover from a family event or an emergency,” said Richburg. “The new format gives them more time to digest and learn the information. We also distributed surveys which indicated this is what students preferred. Some of the students felt the five weeks were too stressful and too condensed. The faculty is satisfied too, because it gives them more time to prepare course materials, as well. But the program completion time of 18 month remains the same.”

“The non-traditional student is quickly becoming the traditional student,” said Richburg. “Many of them want to finish what they started 10 – 20 years ago. Claflin is on the forefront of accommodating the needs of those students. We are offering courses through the various modalities and exploring various delivery methods to bring education to a greater number of students.” Claflin’s accelerated degree program allows transfer students to complete the program within 18 months if they have passed all of the core courses in their major and met all of the general education requirements to graduate. Within the past year,

Although non-traditional students rarely live on campus, they are not restricted from participating in campus activities or being members of various student organizations. “Although the primary reason these students return to school is to earn a quality education, they also want to be involved in campus life as much as possible,” said Richburg. “They are eager to join sororities, fraternities, clubs and organizations, participate in study abroad programs or be inducted into honor societies. The non-traditional students are afforded the same opportunities and privileges enjoyed by all Claflin students.”

The CPCS coordinated a shortterm study abroad in 2015 which resulted in 12 non-traditional students ages 25 to 55 conducting a comparative analysis of the criminal justice systems in London, England and the United States.. The purpose of the study was to compare the differences and similarities between the British and United States criminal justice systems. “Previous continuing studies students at Claflin did not participate in study abroad programs,” said Richburg. “The students visited the House of Parliament, the Royal Courts of Justice, the Tower of London, Scotland Yard Police Department, and Buckingham Palace and observed proceedings in the House of Lords and the House of Commons. Another purpose for the trip was to bring a global perspective to the CPCS and our non-traditional students. Claflin is producing visionaries for the global community. We want these students to realize they are a part of the Claflin’s mission.” For more information on Claflin’s professional and continuing studies department and programs offered in Orangeburg, Fort Jackson-Columbia or online, call (803) 535-5573 or email crichburg@claflin.edu or conedu@claflin.edu.

Policing in the 21st Century There is no disputing that law enforcement agencies face significant challenges today. Recent events around the country have brought policing issues, such as transparency and accountability, community trust, officer and public safety, and use of force, to the forefront in our public dialogue. However, these issues are not new to us. In fact, neither are the solutions. A quick review of Sir Robert Peel’s Principles of Policing established in 1829 remind us that strong, positive relationships with the communities we serve are, and always have been, at the foundation of good police work. In the midst of the challenges we face, we find ourselves with a critical opportunity to engage with our local communities, government officials and law enforcement counterparts to advance public safety and our profession. Throughout the nation, law enforcement, community leaders and policing experts have come together to discuss best practices in strengthening police-community relationships. In May 2015, the Task Force on 21st Century Policing issued a Report on 21st Century Policing containing 59 recommendations for reforms. Shortly thereafter, the Columbia Police Department was invited to participate in a White House event to discuss implementation of the Task Force recommendations and best practices in policing. Since that time, we have initiated reforms within the Department and put many of the task force recommendations into action. To reference just a few, we have established a Citizen Advisory Council, focused on recruitment of diverse candidates, provided a residency incentive for officers to live in the community they serve, implemented a body-worn camera program, published annual Internal Affairs Reports, opened CPD command staff meetings to the

public, increased opportunities for community engagement, and initiated a text message-based citizen survey to provide an additional mechanism for community members to submit feedback regarding interactions with CPD officers. The Columbia Police Department, along with Columbia city officials, have taken advantage of every opportunity to be a part of the national conversation about community-police engagement and criminal justice reforms because many of these reforms will make our communities and officers safer and shape our profession for years to come. With so much at stake, we don’t want to stand on the “sideline,” we want to be “in the game.” Recently, members of the Columbia Police Department were invited to attend and participate in: -

A national rank and file forum to discuss issues facing law enforcement in the 21st century and the recommendations outlined in the Task Force Report. CPD was one of just 40 agencies invited to participate in this forum.

The African American Mayors’ Association Annual Conference – “The Urgency of Now.”

A conference on the White House Police Data Initiative (PDI) – the City of Columbia is one of approximately 53 jurisdictions that have agreed to share datasets such as calls for service, use of force incidents and assaults on police officers available to the public through an online data portal.

BLACKPAGESSOUTH.COM

Change doesn’t happen by chance or accident. It takes courage, leadership, collaboration and innovation on the part of police agencies and citizens. We have a choice, we can work proactively in partnership and use our knowledge and experience to drive real reform, or we can remain on the sidelines, satisfied with the status quo, and reactively implement only those changes that are mandated. At the Columbia Police Department, we will continue to learn from others, share our perspectives and take part in ongoing efforts to advance public and officer safety and increase the effectiveness of our work. Over the last two years, the Columbia Police Department has made great strides in improving our Department and the services we provide to our citizens. We have been able to do this because of the hard work of our dedicated staff and the partnership and support of the people of Columbia. And while I want us all to make note of the work done and progress made, it’s important to remember that our work in this regard will never be complete. We must continue working together to advance best practices that reflect our core values. And while there is no reform or model that will prevent us from making mistakes, we at the Columbia Police Department will continue our quest to become a model 21st century police agency. The City of Columbia is a progressive City, deserving of an exemplary, progressive police department. With your continued partnership and support, we will build a foundation for progress within the Department and our community that will serve as an example for others.

PROFILE OF ACHIEVEMENT NELSON AKWARI BOEING

elson Akwari may not be a native South Carolinian, but he is determined to do everything in his power to be a positive force for change in his new home state. Nelson came to Boeing South Carolina in 2014 as a Materials Process and Physics Engineer and works at the new Boeing Research & Technology Center in North Charleston.

His focus on chemical technologies research at work is matched by his commitment to community engagement, especially when it comes to children. In late 2015, he and two other teammates participated in the Iridescent Curiosity Machine Challenge, designed to challenge and stimulate students in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). Nelson and his colleagues developed plans to build an airplane-painting machine and coached students at Mary Ford Elementary School through the build process.

He is also a mentor to students at Jerry Zucker Middle School through the school’s Watchdog program. Through his church, Crossroads Community Church in Summerville, Nelson and his wife participate in several ministerial outreach programs, including feeding and sharing the gospel with male inmates at the MacDougall Correctional Institution in Ridgeville at Christmas. Nelson has also volunteered at the Lowcountry Food Bank, and is an active teammate volunteer with Boeing South Carolina’s DreamLearners program that targets South Carolina students in Grades 68. He credits his faith for his drive to help others. “I grew up in a home where your Christian faith was more than just saying prayers or going to church on Sunday. I was taught that we are called to serve others and serve the community. I’ve also started

involving my six year-old son because I want him to get exposed to serving and helping in the community, too.”

Copper theft-Not a victimless crime Nothing is sacred to a thief. On the night of March 15, 2013, six air conditioning units outside of St. John Baptist Church in Richland County were gutted for their copper. Police say thieves made off with “maybe $200” of stolen metal. The repair bill for the 128-year-old church founded by free slaves: $30,000. “It took money we budgeted to help feed some of our senior citizens,” said John Gunter, chairman of the church board, and a lifelong member of St. John Baptist. “It’s hard to believe someone would do such a thing to a church.”

thieves in 2012. “It was incredibly frustrating and very upsetting,” Jackson told the Greenville News. Ironically, Jackson was one of a group of state lawmakers who helped pass a rigorous metalthefts bill in 2011, aiming to suppress a crime one sheriff called “an epidemic.” The new law requires anyone selling scrap copper to obtain a permit from their local sheriff to sell the metal. To buy copper, metal recyclers must make a copy of a seller’s permit and record details of each sale. The law also bars cash payments for copper. Buyers must reimburse by check, providing additional documentation of the transaction.

St. John Baptist was one of nine churches in that area of Richland County victimized by copper thieves in the early months of 2013. Each episode targeted copper housed within the air conditioning units. The costs for those churches to make necessary repairs totaled more than $100,000. “It’s a deplorable crime,” says Sen. Darrell Jackson, a Columbia pastor whose church was repeatedly vandalized by copper

BLACKPAGESSOUTH.COM

In effect for three years now, the updated law “has not necessarily slowed down the theft,” says Lt. Michael Hildebrand of the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office. In July 2013, a thief entered an electric utility substation owned by Duke Energy, stole a 12-foot wire coated with copper, and caused 15,000 people in Greenville to lose electricity. Copper theft is a serious issue for utility providers across the country. The National Insurance Crime Bureau, which tracks incidents of metal theft, estimates damage from metal thieves costs U.S. utilities more than $1 billion a year.

“CELEBRATING 25 YEARS OF SERVICE”

Beyond repair costs, which are partially absorbed by consumers, stealing copper from an electric utility can be a matter of life and death. One man was electrocuted and almost killed in 2011 trying to harvest copper from an electrical substation in Berkeley County. And in March 2013, the Richland County Coroner says a man was electrocuted on the grounds of the former State Hospital, apparently while trying to steal copper.

“It’s a deplorable crime,” says Sen. Darrell Jackson, a Columbia pastor whose church was repeatedly vandalized by copper thieves in 2012. “It was incredibly frustrating and very upsetting,” Jackson told the Greenville News.

danger. If a substation is damaged, it puts our crews in danger, too. How tragic would it be for one of our people to get seriously hurt over $50 of wire?” Copper theft and employee safety is also on the radar of management at Cayce-based SCE&G.

Tips to prevent copper thefts at small businesses and churches •

“Safety is our top priority at • SCE&G, for our customers and our crews,” said Keller Kissam, president of retail operations for • the utility. “By remaining vigilant in our efforts to prevent these types of thefts, we are also helping to protect our frontline crews from potential dangers so that we can serve our customers as efficiently and safely as possible.”

“This is such a serious, dangerous crime,” says Todd Carter, vice president of loss, control and training for The Electric Cooperatives of South Carolina. “And it’s not just thieves in

In addition, First Choice is one of eight Medicaid plans in the country and the only health plan in South Carolina to hold NCQA’s Multicultural Healthcare Distinction, which recognizes the delivery of culturally and linguistically appropriate services. “First Choice members receive the attention and high-quality health care they need and deserve,” said Rebecca Engelman, market president at Select Health (pictured). “An overwhelming majority of our members are children, and we’re passionate about keeping them healthy.”

compliance among 12 to 21-yearolds rose 27 percent from 2012 through 2014, in part due to member outreach and education featuring former University of South Carolina football star Marcus Lattimore.

Osteoarthritis

If you have memories of your grandfather or others in his generation struggling along with bad knees and hips, or with a shoulder that wouldn’t move, then Nedra Brown has a message for you. Bad joints can be replaced, says Brown, RN and director of the Orthopaedic Service Line at AnMed Health in Anderson. Joint replacement surgery has been around for years, but modern methods are better than ever. “The advanced technology in the current generation of total joint replacements has allowed people to get back moving sooner and helped improve the quality of life for many people suffering from osteoarthritis,” said Brown. Osteoarthritis is a disease of the entire joint involving the cartilage, joint lining, ligaments, and underlying bone. The breakdown of these tissues

eventually leads to pain and joint stiffness. The specific causes of osteoarthritis are unknown, but are believed to be a result of both mechanical and molecular events in the affected joint. Disease onset is gradual and usually begins after the age of 40. “Unfortunately the breakdown of these tissues eventually leads to pain and joint stiffness,” Brown said. “There is currently no cure for osteoarthritis. Treatment for osteoarthritis focuses on relieving symptoms and improving function, and can include a combination of patient education, physical therapy, weight control, use of medications, and eventually total joint replacement.” Brown says the key is to seek professional consultation before the pain becomes unbearable.

BLACKPAGESSOUTH.COM

AnMed Health provides a variety of specialty services for osteoarthritis patients. If you and your physician decide joint replacement is your best option, it is important to have support from friends and family to help you along the journey. Patients can have joint replacement and go directly home after surgery with assistance from home health and rehab services. For more information, go to www.AnMedHealth.org and look for Total Joint Academy.

1. Set your priorities Stress is the enemy of good health. Stress robs us of our time and demands our attention. One way to reduce the stress in your life is to prioritize your day. Don't feel pressured to do it all and be everything everyone. Take a minute to rank those activities that mean the most to you and focus on those.

2. Take time for yourself Self-care is the most basic and essential form of healthcare. With busy schedules, people often forget to take breaks. Whether prayer time, quiet time, recreational time, or even short power naps; consider scheduling time for yourself to do something relaxing and enjoyable. It is important to take care of yourself and seek support when needed to reduce stress.

3. Exercise Exercising, as little as 10-15 minutes, has generally been effective at easing stress, boosting immunity, and increasing overall bodily function. Additionally, exercise has been shown to reduce the frequency and duration of migraines, as well

PROFILE OF ACHIEVEMENT ATTORNEY FRANCHOT A. BROWN The History of a Public Servant Mr. Brown was born in Columbia, South Carolina to the late Rupert A. and Sara Daniels-Brown and in 1961 graduated from Booker T. Washington High School in Columbia, SC. Franchot received his Bachelor of Arts Degree in 1965 from Howard University and his Juris Doctor Degree from the University of South Carolina in 1969. Franchot worked on William McKinley Bowman’s public office campaign in the 1950’s and was the first President of the Youth Branch NAACP for Columbia. While in high school, he participated in sit-ins and demonstrations to break the racial barrier. For more than 50 years, Franchot has worked diligently in the areas of civil rights and activities to establish social justices for all. While at Booker T. Washington High School, Franchot was elected President of the Junior Class and elected Vice President of the Student Body in the same year. In his senior year, he was elected Student Body President. Franchot setup his Boy Scout Troop Number 151 as the first Black group to appear on the local WIS-TV and was asked by the Station Manager of this local NBC affiliate to recommend the first Black news team member. Franchot also confronted the Richland County Sheriff, inquiring as to why he had no one of color in his Junior Deputy Sheriff’s organization, whereby the Sheriff made him the first Black Junior Deputy Sheriff. Franchot personally ran a summer voter registration drive in the early 1960’s registering over 60 black people to vote in a very hostile environment. He was a poll-watcher for the first election ever held in the District of Columbia. Franchot organized the Metropolitan Education Foundation (MEF) following the assassination of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., which provided summertime activities in eight depressed areas of the City of Columbia and Richland County. Also, Franchot was instrumental in bringing the late James Brown to the University of South Carolina as a fundraiser. As a law student, Franchot penned a report to the Mayor and members of the Greater Columbia Community Relations Council, expressing in detail the frustrations of the Greater Columbia Black community and demanded changes. He fought and impeded the construction of Interstate

Highway 77 being built through the Black Columbia community. Franchot was an invited guest to attend an energy briefing by President Jimmy Carter at the White House. AS AN ATTORNEY Franchot organized the Citizens for Fair Housing with HUD to integrate apartments and neighborhoods in Richland County in the early ‘70s. Franchot integrated the YMCA in Columbia. His many firsts include: being the first Black member of the local Baptist Hospital Hospice Program; the first Black member of the South Carolina Blue Cross and Blue Shield State Board; and appointed by former Governor John C. West to sit as the first Black Columbia Magistrate, the largest magisterial district in Richland County – a position he held for 3? years before establishing his private law practice. He was the first elected President of the Greater Eau Claire Community Council. He served on a committee organized by the Presbyterian Church, USA to develop Harbison on land which was totally undeveloped. Franchot wrote the All American City Employment Plan establishing racial goals to advance Blacks in positions at all levels of government, in private business and industry, which was adopted by the Greater Columbia Chamber of Commerce, the Columbia Mayor and City Council, and the Richland County Council. He organized a rent strike in the blighted Camp Fornance area of Richland County wherein rents were withheld from the landlord and were never given to the landlord. A federally funded project replaced the old area which Franchot named for a pioneer in that area. Franchot was appointed the first Black Commissioner of the City of Columbia Housing Authority. He organized the Hospital Workers’ Union 1199 at the South Carolina Mental Hospital to bring attention to the income disparities of its lower level employees and to better their working conditions. Franchot ran for Columbia City Council on April 3, 1973 at a time when there were partisan elections. Despite those odds, he won the Democratic nomination for the City Council Seat against four other opponents without a runoff. Franchot was not successful in the General Election. He provided expert testimony in a lawsuit against the City of Columbia to establish single member districts

BLACKPAGESSOUTH.COM

thus guaranteeing that Blacks in the City of Columbia would be capable of being elected to City Council which ended the all “at-large election process” and Blacks were electable and are now sitting on the Columbia City Council today and recently elected its first Black Mayor. Franchot became a member of prestigious Leadership Columbia. Franchot served on the Board of Victory Savings Bank; the only minority-owned bank in the State of South Carolina. He served on the Greater Columbia Community Relations Council, was a Board member and stockholder of a corporation which established the WDPN-FM radio station, volunteered in the Ask A Lawyer Program sponsored by the South Carolina Bar Association; appeared on the cover of the first edition of Black Pages For Columbia; served on the board of the Columbia Council of Neighborhoods (CNN); was a former Board member of the South Carolina Board of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU); and was one of the general partners to develop both Harbor Island, South Carolina and Carriage Court in Beaufort, South Carolina. AFFILIATIONS Franchot was an original member of the Capital City Club and was a member of the Summit Club and is a current member of the Palmetto Club. Franchot was a member of the Men’s Resource Center, and a member of the South Carolina Citizens Advisory Committee for communicable diseases. He is a life member of the NAACP. PRESENTLYFranchot organized the Community Health Assistance Team (CHAT), a 501(c)(3) organization, to raise funds for the prevention and treatment of the HIV/AIDS virus and has raised over $250,000.00 toward that effort. Because of these accomplishments, in 2014, the South Carolina General Assembly passed a concurrent Resolution naming the bridge over the Broad River in Columbia “The Franchot A. Brown Bridge”. Franchot has one son, Brian Brown, Sr.; two grandsons; one granddaughter; and four great grandchildren. He continues to reside in Columbia, South Carolina. In 1953 at the age of ten, Franchot was baptized at First Nazareth Baptist Church. He serves on various ministries of the church, has served as the church’s attorney and is a member of the Trustee Ministry as well. In troubled times, Mr. Brown’s quote is “This too shall pass away!”

“CELEBRATING 25 YEARS OF SERVICE” Dig-in to gardening with Blue Thumb Landscaping!

We all love beautiful yards, but over-watering, using too many chemicals, and even lawn clippings that wash into storm drains can lead to big problems with nearby waterways. However, there are small changes that you can make to your lawn maintenance routine that can lead to big benefits for your yard and for Columbia’s rivers and streams! Use only what you need! Lawns only need 1” of water each week. Using a rain gauge helps keep track of the rainfall and will allow you to save water by relying on Mother Nature to do more of the work. When you overwater, instead of soaking into the ground for the plants, that extra water picks up lawn chemicals and other pollutants and carries it into nearby storm drains where it flows untreated into local waterways. Watering in the late evening or early morning will reduce evaporation and ensure the water soaks into the plant roots.

Test your soil! Before you fertilize, find out exactly what nutrients your yard needs and how much you should apply by having your soil tested by your local Extension Agent. Once you know what your yard needs, talk to your County Extension Office or nursery professional for tips on proper application. Extra fertilizer just gets washed away. This is not only money down the drain, but fertilizers and lawn clippings that wash down our storm drains can cause harmful algae blooms and can harm local wildlife. Go native! Native plants are those that occur naturally in an area and have evolved over time to withstand conditions specific to their region such as soil, climate, and rainfall. Because native plants have adapted to local soils and climates, they generally require less watering and fertilizing than non-native plants. Native plants found in the South Carolina Midlands include Black-eyed Susan and Joe Pye Weed. For more information about native plants, visit the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center's

List of South Carolina Native Plants. Recycle your garden! Why pay for expensive fertilizers when you can make it yourself? Compost your yard clippings and household vegetable scraps to make food for your garden. All you need are three basic ingredients: browns (dead leaves, branches, and twigs), greens (grass clippings, vegetable waste, fruit scraps, coffee grounds), and water! Compost will enrich your soil, help retain moisture, and minimize plant disease and pests. Bag your waste! Loose clippings placed on the street can be washed into local storm drains causing the drains to clog and waste to travel into local streams and rivers. Do your part to keep our waterways clean by bagging your clippings in paper bags before placing them on the street.

Boeing and South Carolina: Partnering for Success and Building a Brighter Future for the Palmetto State by Boeing South Carolina

ince July 15, 1916, Boeing has made the impossible, possible. From producing a single canvas-and-wood airplane to transforming how we fly over oceans and into space, The Boeing Company has become the world's largest aerospace company. And we're just getting started.

Nearly seven years ago, Boeing made the historic decision to open a 787 Dreamliner final assembly plant in North

Charleston. It was the first time that a Boeing Commercial Airplane factory had been built any place other than the Pacific Northwest. Today, there are only three locations in the world that make large, twin-aisle commercial airplanes. And one of them is right here in South Carolina. Together, Boeing South Carolina and its teammates are proudly making history, while creating new opportunities that will improve the quality of life for

generations of South Carolinians. Over the past five years, Boeing has built millions of square feet of high-tech manufacturing facilities and has created thousands of well-paying jobs with exceptional benefits and growth opportunities. In 2015, Boeing supported an estimated 10,000 direct and indirect jobs in South Carolina. And Boeing South Carolina offers teammates the opportunity to pursue their dreams of long-term career

One of Boeing’s community partners, INNERSOLE, provides new sneakers to children in need. Boeing has partnered with INNERSOLE to extend their mission through an afterschool program in North Charleston. The program encourages students to stay engaged in school through attendance, academics, behavior and physical fitness. Pictured above are thank you notes INNERSOLE has received from children impacted by the program.

growth through our free college education benefits and career mentoring programs. Boeing also gives back to South Carolina communities with charitable contributions and volunteer time. Since 2011, Boeing has invested more than $27 million in South Carolina non-profit organizations, and teammates have volunteered more than 8,000 times in the community. “We have a tremendous partnership with Boeing because they really understand the needs of the community,” said Angela O’Neal, director of operations at INNERSOLE, an organization that makes a difference in the lives of children by providing new sneakers to those in need. The program also encourages students to stay engaged in school through attendance, academics, behavior and physical fitness.

It is because of Boeing that we can be a bright spot for these kids and inspire them to dream big,” said O’Neal. Whether it’s building career opportunities or building community partnerships, it is clear that we are building more than just jets in South Carolina. We’re building a bright future for generations to come. “Together with our suppliers, neighboring communities, business partners, state and local leaders, and countless others we have accomplished extraordinary things together in a relatively short period of time. Together, let’s keep a good thing going!” said Boeing South Carolina Vice President and General Manager Beverly Wyse. For more information about Boeing’s operations in South Carolina, please visit the Boeing South Carolina website at http://www.weareboeingsc.com/.

“Most shelters don’t have new shoes. They receive donations, but nothing new for the kids. And there is something special about getting a box of brand new shoes made especially for you. When you feel good, you are going to hold your head high and put in more effort to things like school.

“With thousands of veterans returning to South Carolina from active service each year or retiring from service, it’s the duty and responsibility of our communities to help them successfully transition to civilian life and to find permanent and good paying jobs,” said Katherine Westmoreland Richards of The Sustainability Institute. “Because of Boeing, we have been able to accomplish our two goals – provide military service veterans the job training necessary to become certified industry leaders in energy while significantly improving the affordability of housing by improving the energy efficiency of lowincome homes.” The Sustainability Institute creates market transformation for energy efficient and sustainable buildings through a well-tested and successful combination of community education and outreach, innovative direct services, and workforce training.

South Carolina Ports Authority The South Carolina Ports Authority (SCPA), established by the state's General Assembly in 1942, is a leading U.S. seaport that owns and operates public seaport facilities in Charleston, Georgetown and Greer. Within South Carolina, SCPA operations have a $53 billion economic impact, employing 187,000 people in port-related jobs that pay 40 percent higher than the state’s average annual wage. One in 11 jobs statewide is tied to the SCPA, which handles goods valued at more than $74 billion annually while receiving no direct taxpayer subsidy. SCPA is the state’s most significant strategic asset and a major driver of job creation, with more than $10 billion invested by port-dependent firms since 2012 generating more than 24,000 new jobs. Leading global brands such as BMW, Volvo Cars, Mercedes Benz Vans, and a wide range of retail leaders are buying into the Port of Charleston market. The Port of Charleston is the ninth largest container port in the U.S. and the fastest growing.

Despite being a small state in population and geography, South Carolina ranks 15th in the nation in total value of exported goods at $30.9 billion in 2015.

South Carolina Department of Natural Resources: An Agency for Opportunity

Whether you need a boat registered or a license to hunt or fish, the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources offers you friendly efficient service and information. For many years, that was enough, but time changes everything, especially the simple often overlooked luxuries of a rural life. As urban sprawl swallows up more and more of a once quiet landscape, many young people have to grow up without the kind of outdoor adventures that shaped my generation. Although the SCDNR can’t turn back the clock, we have learned to become an agency for opportunity — the kind of opportunities that begin as recreation and often end in education. In our business, that’s the first and most important step toward conservation. Here are a few of the SCDNR opportunities you may not have heard about. Family Fishing Clinics It’s more than fishing 101, this program offers kids, parents and even grandparents a free opportunity to learn basic fishing skills as well a chance to spend quality time together. Taught by

SCDNR-certified fishing instructors, the class covers the fundamental skills you need to try fishing on your own. Fishing Rodeos For kids who already have knowledgeable outdoor mentors, this program offers them a place to fish where the action usually comes pretty fast. SCDNR conservation officers are on hand to help out to keep everyone safe around the water. Did I mention this program also is free! Take One Make One A teen program, also free although you may need to invest in proper clothing or some short travel, pairs youth with skilled hunting mentors who not only teach kids how and when to take the shot, but also about firearms safety and hunting ethics. It’s a great way to learn confidence, leadership skills and even respect for the great outdoors. Hunter Education If you were born after June 30, 1979, this program is required by state law before you can buy a hunting license in South Carolina. There are free classroom sessions or you can take the class online and come to a SCDNR office to be tested and purchase your license.

BLACKPAGESSOUTH.COM

It’s a great course to keep you safe in the woods, no matter what your age. Archery in Schools, Sporting Clays and School Fishing Teams The SCDNR sponsors many sporting clays events, archery events for schools and clubs, and even fishing teams for middle and high school age youth. These programs are for kids with a little more outdoor experience and they may require a bigger investment of time and money. Public Lands, Public Fishing Lakes and Lottery Draw Hunts While some of these programs are directed at youth hunters and anglers, others are for older experienced sportsmen or sportswomen looking for opportunities to participate in a quality outdoor experience in a safe environment with better than average odds for success. These and other opportunities are available through the SCDNR, so go ahead get outside and have some fun. For more information about these and other opportunities offered by the SCDNR, visit our website at www.dnr.sc.gov.

The South Carolina Human Affairs Commission www.schac.sc.gov / 1-800-521-0725 by Marvin Caldwell

The South Carolina Human Affairs Commission is the state agency responsible for enforcing South Carolina Fair Housing Law. Fair Housing laws make it illegal for a property owner to discriminate because of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, and disability. Majority of housing discrimination complaints filed with the Commission are related to disability. Complaints of this nature routinely allege a property owner has denied a reasonable accommodation request or refused to permit a reasonable modification. An accommodation can take the form of a change in the policies, terms, and conditions to allow a disabled resident an opportunity to have full use and enjoyment of their dwelling. An example of an accommodation is allowing a tenant to have a service animal or emotional support animal. A disabled person can also request a modification to alter their residence which would afford the tenant full enjoyment of the property. An example is allowing a wheelchair ramp to be installed outside the unit.

Discrimination can involve familial status. Familial status violations
