Drawing on the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King.

Jr., who was killed 49 years ago, thousands of workers, racial justice activists, elected officials and clergy waged marches, rallies, teach-ins and vigils Tuesday as two of the nation’s most powerful social movements united in a “Fight Racism, Raise Pay” protest that echoed across two-dozen cities.

The protests stretched from Boston to Chicago to Los Angeles, culminating in a march by thousands on the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tenn., where Dr. King was killed April 4, 1968 while supporting striking black sanitation workers.

The Rev. William J. Barber II, founder of the social justice

movement Repairers of the Breach; Service Employees International Union President Mary Kay Henry, who has supported the Fight for $15 since the movement started nearly five years ago; and the Great Talladega College Tornado Marching Band led the march through downtown Memphis.

CBC DELIVERS “WE HAVE A LOT TO LOSE” PAPER TO PRESIDENT TRUMP

By Lauren Victoria Burke (NNPA Newswire Contributor)

Carrying a 130-page document titled, “We Have A Lot To Lose: Solutions to Advance Black Families in the 21st Century,” members of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) sat down with President Donald Trump and Vice President Pence to discuss a range of issues affecting the Black community.

Congressional Black Caucus Chairman Cedric Richmond (DLa.), and the CBC executive board, which includes Reps. Karen Bass (D-Calif.), Gwen Moore (D-Wisc.), Andre Carson (D-Ind.), Brenda

Lawrence (D-Mich.) and Anthony Brown (D-Md.) attended the meeting; senior CBC member Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) also attended the meeting.The CBC delegation discussed proposed federal budget cuts, Historically Black Colleges and Universities and jobs with the commander-in-chief.

The meeting, which was the first between CBC leadership and President Trump, started in the Cabinet Room and later moved into the Oval Office after members of the press recorded part of the

Thousands March Nationwide on 49th Anniversary of

DR. KING’S ASSASSINATION Continued from page 1

“Governor Rauner and President Trump’s, antiworker and anti-union policies.” Fast food workers, Black Lives Matter activists, and members of Fair Economy Illinois held a brief press conference and spoke out about the injustices they’re facing.

“This action is very personal for me and for my fellow fast food workers because most of us are Black and Latina workers” said Parrish Thomas, a worker at Popeye’s and KFC. “As a Black man, it’s inspiring to have seen Dr. King, another Black man, set the example for what’s right. It’s important to make his dream come true by keeping the fight alive today.”

Black Lives Matter Chicago’s role in the press conference and protest, proved how the movements for economic and racial justice are the same.

“Dr. King saw a common bond between the labor and civil rights movements and believed that union rights were fundamental to achieving racial justice” said Kofi Ademola, a BLM Chicago leader. “As King said in 1961, ‘the two most dynamic and cohesive liberal forces in the country are the labor movement and the Negro freedom movement.

Together we can be architects of democracy.’”

Fast food workers disrupted traffic as they marched in the street, carrying a huge black, red and white banner that read “Still Fighting For The Dream, End Racism,

say, “destroy working class families in Illinois,” according to a released statement. Workers and activists blocked the entrance of the Koch Brothers funded institution and held signs that said “$15 for Illinois Families” and “No Black Liberation Without Living Wages”.

“The IPI and Governor Rauner propose that the state balance the budget by cutting the life-giving programs we know we need--which will make for strong neighborhoods, and a city that works for all” said Pastor Fred from One Northside. “They push “Dr. King saw a common bond policies that would strip workers of their union between the labor and civil rights protections and lower wages for everybody.”

gathering.

There has been a lot of discussion about whether the CBC should take a meeting with Trump, because of the president’s rhetoric regarding Black communities. On the campaign trail, Trump often painted the Black community with a broad brush, sensationalizing the poverty and violence that plagues some neighborhoods while neglecting the stories of Black achievement and success.

Despite his parade of Black celebrity friends, Trump’s relationship with the African American community is often defined by the incendiary media campaign he ran against the “Central Park Five,” four Black and one Hispanic youth, who were charged and convicted for the brutal sexual assault of a young, White investment banker in New York City’s Central Park in 1989. Trump paid for ads in four of the city’s newspapers.

“A couple of weeks after the attack, the real-estate developer Donald Trump reportedly paid $85,000 to take out advertising space in four of the city’s newspapers, with the headline: ‘Bring Back The Death Penalty. Bring Back Our Police!’” wrote Quartz, the news website. “The boys’ lawyer, Michael Warren, told the Guardian that Trump and his ad ‘poisoned the minds of many people who lived in New York and who, rightfully, had a natural affinity for the victim.’”

Years later, all five men were cleared of all charges, their convictions were vacated and Mayor Bill de Blasio supported a $41 million settlement in 2014.

Trump and his father, Fred Trump, also faced housing discrimination allegations in the 1970s, when it was discovered that Blacks were routinely blocked from living in some of the apartments operated by the Trump

Management Company. The case was settled, “with no admission of guilt.”

So why meet with Trump? Members of the Black Caucus were pointed.

“President Trump has met with various African Americans, however we’re the only African Americans that are elected to the United States Congress that can develop policy and offer a different viewpoint,” said Chairman Richmond as he left the White House. “The CBC represents 78 million Americans, we consistently fight [against] poverty, no matter who it affects.”

Rep. Lawrence, who represents parts of Detroit, said that the CBC doesn’t have the luxury of passing on a meeting with president.

“If there’s an opportunity to improve life for our constituents, we will take it,” said Lawrence.

The congresswoman spoke with Trump about recent news that the Environmental Protection Agency has set aside $100 million to address the water crisis in Flint, Mich.

Lawrence said she was surprised that Trump knew the details of the situation and asked her who was at fault.

“It was a meeting where both sides listened and it was a meeting where we were very candid about disagreements,” said Chairman Richmond at the White House. “The surprising part is when we talked about the goals; there were more similarities than differences. The route to get there is where you may see differences; part of that is just education and life experiences.”

Each member at the meeting said that there were several direct and blunt exchanges with the president.

Rep. Bass said that she told the president that his comments about African American communities were

CITIZEN / South Suburban / Week of April 12, 2017 / 3

not only hurtful, but also had the potential to perpetuate negative stereotypes about Blacks and to shape the discourse surrounding mass incarceration and police reform.

Rep. Carson, a former police officer who was the second Muslim elected to Congress in 2008, said that he confronted Trump about some of the negative comments that Trump made about Muslim Americans and Islam during his 2016 presidential campaign.

The CBC members were surprised when Trump offered to meet with the group on a regular basis, perhaps quarterly.

The members noted that it would take more than scheduled meetings in the Oval Office to affect systemic change in the U.S. The members also talked to the president about the impact of his recent budget blueprint that includes cuts to education and urban development.

With Republicans in control of the U.S. Senate, the House of Representatives and the White House, the Black Caucus is gearing up for a series of tough legislative battles over the next 19 months, until the midterm elections in November 2018.

“We never thought we’d agree on everything in this meeting, but the one thing we did ask for is [candor],” the CBC chairman told reporters at the White House after the seven spoke with Trump. “He listened, and we talked, and we proposed a lot of solutions, many of which, I think, he had not heard before, and we’re going to keep advocating.”

Rep. Stratton to Help Jobseekers Connect with Training Resources at Free Career Fair State Rep. Juliana Stratton, D-Chicago, is helping connect local jobseekers with resources that help them train for careers that do not require a four-year college degree at a free alternative pathways college and career fair on Monday, May 8 from 9 a.m. to noon at Vandercook College of Music, located at 3125 S. Federal Street in Chicago.

The high cost of a college degree shouldn’t be a roadblock to a good career,” Stratton said. “There are many different paths to a good career, and a number of ways for local residents to get ahead in a competitive job market. I am excited to bring these resources to young people who want to build for their futures, and all jobseekers who are looking for new opportunities.”

Stratton is partnering with state Sen. Mattie Hunter and state Rep. Sonya Harper to host the alternative pathways college and career fair. The fair is free and open to the public, and will allow residents to speak with representatives from various vocational and tech schools in addition to having the ability to collect free information on career opportunities and job training. Stratton’s job fair will feature information on barber and beauty college, massage therapy certification, law enforcement and security training and other certification and training programs. In addition, residents will have the opportunity to learn how to create an employer-ready resume, succeed during an interview and read common financial documents.

Federal Program Offers $35,000 to Assist Seniors Struggling with Reverse Mortgages The Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA) recently launched the Reverse Mortgage Assistance Program to help senior homeowners with reverse mortgages pay back taxes and avoid foreclosure. On April 3, IHDA began providing up to $35,000 in federal assistance to qualifying borrowers with reverse mortgages to pay overdue property taxes, eligible property expenses and future property taxes so they can avoid foreclosure and remain in their homes.

“There is a real need for this kind of assistance in Illinois,” said IHDA Executive Director Audra Hamernik. “Many of these seniors are on fixed incomes and took out a reverse mortgage to help with healthcare or everyday living costs. They don’t have the resources to weather an unexpected home repair, medical event or loss of household income. This program offers the help they need to get back on track with their payments before they lose their home.”

Reverse Mortgages allow homeowners 62 and older to borrow against the equity they have built up in their home. The proceeds the borrower receives from the reverse mortgage must be repaid when the house is sold or the homeowners move. The borrower is still responsible for paying property taxes and homeowner’s insurance, and if they are unable to keep up with their payments, they may lose the home to foreclosure.

Treasurer Frerichs to Return Purple Heart Medal to Vietnam War Veteran On Wednesday, April 5, Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs returned a Purple Heart Medal to Vietnam War Veteran Harold J. Walker. Walker, who currently resides in Mississippi, lived in Illinois when he was drafted into the U.S. Army. The military medal is among several others belonging to Walker surrendered to the Illinois State Treasurer’s Office as unclaimed property. The Illinois treasurer’s office is the custodian of unclaimed property, including lost bank accounts, insurance policy proceeds, and forgotten safe deposit boxes. The Purple Heart is one of the most recognized and respected medals awarded to members of the U.S. Armed Forces.

ComEd doubles jobs, boosts economy and improves customer satisfaction with Smart Grid

By Christopher Shuttlesworth

I

n 2011, ComEd proposed legislation that allowed the company to spend money to modernize its Smart Grid, which currently uses technology to help create more efficiency in the way ComEd operates and manages their distribution system.

Since, the modernization of the Smart Grid, ComEd has doubled their jobs, boosted the economy, and improved customer satisfaction with a host of new social media alert options, according to Isaac Akridge, ComEd’s Vice President of Distribution.

Akridge said the reason ComEd decided to modernize its Smart Grid is because of older infrastructure in the field and due to the company’s strong desire to improve service for customers.

“We understand that the utility industry is old and in some cases there was older infrastructure in the field and when technology became available it was an opportunity to see how we could leverage and modernize our grid to improve the service that we provide to our customers,” he said.

According to ComEd, “the Smart Grid Law authorized the installation of nearly 4 million smart meters across northern Illinois, creating benefits far beyond providing customers with real-time outage information. Now, customers have the digital tools to track their own energy use and take advantage of programs that save them energy and money.

Akridge said with the new Smart Grid system, customers are seeing less outages and duration, resulting in 7.6 million outages being

avoided.

He said one of the main reasons outages have been avoided is because of the new smart meters that give customers more access to how they’re using energy and new smart switches that allow customers to read activity from the smart grid and redirect power to minimize the outages.

“We’re more active and engaged in our [customers’] communities as we continue to find ways to educate our customers about the Smart Grid by being in their back yards and working with them to install their smart meters and teaching them how to use them,” Akridge said.

“Pleasing our customers is our mission and our customers depend on electricity,” he said.

“Overtime, we know that they will have more demands and we know that they want more transparency to how the company is servicing their needs, more options to the service because it’s vital to their quality of life.

“This is not a one-stop move for us in terms of looking at benefits of the Smart Grid and how we can leverage technology over time,” Akridge said.

“This is not a one-stop move for us in terms of looking at benefits of the Smart Grid and how we can leverage technology over time.”

SILVER SPRING, Md.- PRNewswireUSNewswire/ -- The egg has been regarded as a symbol of new life and has been associated with springtime celebrations, such as Easter and Passover, for many centuries.

But, even during festive occasions, eggs can cause food poisoning (also called foodborne illness). That’s why the U.S. Food and Drug Administration reminds consumers to follow safe food handling practices when buying, storing, preparing, and serving eggs or foods that contain them during their springtime celebrations and throughout the year.

Salmonella can be found on both the outside and inside of eggs that look perfectly normal. These bacteria can cause diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, and fever.

Symptoms usually last 4 to 7 days and most people get better without treatment.

However, certain people, such as children, older adults, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems (such as transplant patients and individuals with HIV/AIDS, cancer, and diabetes), are at greater risk for severe illness. In these individuals, a Salmonella infection may spread from the intestines to the blood stream and then to other parts of the body, and can cause death unless the person is treated promptly with antibiotics.

Protect yourself and your family by following these food safety tips to prevent food poisoning: Clean Wash hands, utensils, dishes, and work surfaces (counter tops and cutting boards) with soap and hot water after contact with raw eggs and raw eggcontaining foods.

Eat eggs promptly after cooking.

Do not keep eggs warm or at room temperature (between 40° to 140° F) for more than 2 hours.

For recipes that call for raw or undercooked eggs (like Caesar salad dressing and homemade ice cream), consider using pasteurized shell eggs or pasteurized egg products.

Chill

Buy eggs only if sold from a refrigerator or refrigerated case. Keeping eggs adequately refrigerated prevents any Salmonella bacteria in or on the eggs from growing to higher numbers (which makes them more likely to cause illness).

At home, keep eggs refrigerated at 40° F or below until they are needed. Use a refrigerator thermometer to check.

Refrigerate unused eggs or leftovers that contain eggs promptly.

For school or work, pack cooked eggs with a small frozen gel pack or a frozen juice box.

Discard cracked or dirty eggs.

Separate

Never let raw eggs come into contact with food that will be eaten raw (or with utensils that could cross-contaminate other foods).

Cook

Cook eggs thoroughly until both the yolk and white are firm. Lightly cooked egg whites and yolks have both caused outbreaks of Salmonella infections.

Casseroles and other dishes containing eggs should be cooked to 160° F. Use a food thermometer to be sure.

Eating Out

Avoid restaurant dishes made with raw or undercooked, unpasteurized eggs. When in a restaurant, ask if they use pasteurized eggs before ordering anything that might result in consumption of raw or undercooked eggs (such as Hollandaise sauce or Caesar salad dressing).

While the Obama Presidential Library promises to benefit the community, groups call for a written agreement

By Christopher Shuttlesworth

A local community coalition is calling for a community benefits agreement for the Obama Presidential Library.

The Obama Library Community Benefits Agreement Coalition said they feel a Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) is necessary due to Black residents being displaced by changes in communities such as the transformation plan of the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA) and the fall out of school closings, according to an Obama Library Community Benefits Agreement Coalition press release.

Attorney Allegra Cira Fischer of The Law Project, who’s working on behalf of the coalition to create an agreement said, attorneys view the CBA as a binding agreement between the developer and community members within the neighborhood.

Dominic Surya, who is an organizer of the Obama Library Community Benefits Agreement Coalition added, “We want to make sure that during the CBA meetings, we’re not affirming language about community benefits, but bringing community benefits to the Southside of Chicago and to the people who made former President Barack Obama who he is.”

Jawanza Brian Malone, a community leader who favors the agreement and who is also the Executive Director of the Kenwood-Oakland Community Organization, said every business in the world is bound by a contract and believes that this should be no different.

Malone added, “Communities around the world have been able to hold developers accountable to the communities where they seek to build. For us, this isn’t about whether we trust the first Black president to do the right thing. This is simply about business.”

“President and Mrs. Obama chose to develop the Obama

Presidential Center in the heart of Chicago’s South Side because it is the neighborhood they call home and the place they believed they could have the most impact,” The Barack

Obama Foundation Vice President of Civic Engagement Michael Strautmanis said. “The Obama Presidential Center will strengthen the economic climate in our community by bringing thousands of visitors to the South Side every year, creating new jobs, and revitalizing historic Jackson Park, he said, adding, “the foundation maintains the position that a community benefit agreement is not the tool that will have the most lasting economic impact on the South Side,” Strautmanis said. “The Foundation is encouraged by the energy and ideas that have come from hundreds of meetings with community organizations and residents, including those who are creating an economic development strategy that will engage the creativity, entrepreneurship, and work ethic that exists in the neighborhoods around the site of the Obama Presidential Center. We appreciate the efforts of everyone who is working hard to ensure the OPC becomes a catalyst for additional growth, and encourage everyone with an idea, expertise to offer, or additional resources to share to join the effort,” Strautmanis stated.

The Obama library is estimated to cost $600 million and could potentially create 1,900 permanent jobs and help build thirty restaurants, eleven stores, and even a hotel, according to UChicagogate.com.

“The permanent Obama Presidential Library will be constructed on Chicago’s South Side in Jackson Park.

The Barack Obama Presidential Library will be the 14th presidential library administered by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), a federal agency.

The Barack Obama Foundation has selected Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects | Partners (TWBTA) as the design team, with partners Interactive Design 3rd (IDEA),” according to obamalibrary.gov.

Cook County Assessor Joseph Berrios to Host Property Tax Appeal Seminar for Bremen Township Homeowners Bremen Township Reassessment Notices

Sch eduled to be Mailed Soon

Chicago - Cook County Assessor Joseph Berrios has announced his office will host an Assessment Appeal Workshop to help Bremen Township homeowners understand and appeal their properties’ proposed reassessment values.

The Assessment Appeal Workshop will be held on Thursday, April 25th, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Acorn Public Library located at 15624 Central Avenue in Oak Forest.

Each year, the Cook County Assessor’s Office (CCAO) reassesses one-third of the nearly 1.8 million parcels of property located in Cook County. This year, the CCAO is reassessing properties located in South Suburban Cook County. Bremen Township will be the sixth township to be mailed in the 2017 reassessment of South Suburban Cook County; Reassessment notices for Bremen Township are scheduled to be mailed in mid-April.

“Our outreach seminars are designed to provide homeowners with personal and local access to information regarding their new reassessment values,” Assessor Berrios said. “We want to ensure that taxpayers are provided with all the tools necessary to not only understand their assessments but also appeal them if they choose to do so.”

The reassessment notices contain proposed Tax Year 2017 reassessment values which will be reflected on SecondInstallment Tax Bills to be mailed and due in Summer 2018. The time to file appeals is now, however, when the reassessment notices are received and reassessment values are not yet final. Final reassessment values are usually in place for three years.

Representatives from CCAO will be at the seminar to answer questions and assist homeowners in filing assessment appeals. Taxpayers are encouraged to bring their reassessment notices; assessment information will also be distributed by Assessor Berrios’ office to attendees.

CCAO web site also has a wealth of information on property assessments and assessment appeals. In addition to being able to download and file appeal forms, residential property owners may also utilize the site to search for comparable property assessment information to include in their appeals. The Assessor’s web site is located at www.cookcountyassessor.com

EVENT OF THE WEEK

GIVE BLOOD AND HELP

SAVE LIVES THIS SPRING Eligible blood donors of all blood types are encouraged to give blood through the American Red Cross this spring to help ensure a sufficient supply for hospital patients.

Donated blood is perishable and must constantly be replenished to keep up with hospital patient need. Red blood cells are the blood component most frequently transfused by hospitals and must be used within 42 days of donation.

Eligible donors can give red blood cells through either a regular whole blood donation or a Power Red donation, where available.

Power Red donors give a concentrated dose of red blood cells during a single donation, allowing them to maximize their impact. During this type of donation, red blood cells are separated from other blood components, and the plasma and platelets are safely and comfortably returned to the donor.

While donors of all blood types are encouraged to give blood, type O, A negative and B negative donors are urged to give Power Reds if they meet the additional eligibility criteria. Type O negative is the universal blood type and can be transfused to patients of any blood type in an emergency. Similarly, type O positive can be transfused to Rhpositive patients of any blood type. Types A negative and B negative can be transfused to Rh-positive or negative patients. Power Red donations help ensure a stable supply of these critical blood types.

Whole blood can be donated every 56 days, up to six times a year, and Power Red donations may be made every 112 days, up to

church Inspirations

from Rev. Dr. Derrick B. Wells,

Senior Minister of Christ Universal Temple

Adversarial Awareness

T

he prophet writer of Isaiah shared that just as the rain and snow fulfill the purpose for which each is sent, so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and succeed in the thing for which I sent it. Likewise, our words do not return to us void and these same words are filled with the power to accomplish what we speak. So whether we realize it or not, we never really outperform our conversation.

If we want to change our lives, we have to change the way we think of ourselves and if we want to change the way we think of ourselves, we need to change the words we say to ourselves. Life is already full of issues and challenges. Why add to them by discouraging yourself every day with negative self-talk?

Beneath the surface, each of us has an inner voice on a loud speaker trying to convince us of something about ourselves. What does your self-talk sound like and what is it saying to you? Is it a blessing to you? Do you encourage you? Alternatively, do you curse and criticize yourself?

Become your own encourager, your own cheerleader. Every time you do a good job, do not just let it pass; give yourself a compliment. Every time you choose discipline over indulgence, encourage yourself; recognize how much you are helping you. When you make a mistake, learn from it and improve but do not beat yourself up and relive the mistake without getting the lesson.

The help, boost, and acceptance you have been looking for might be found in the things you say to yourself! Speak life, especially to yourself!

FILM REVIEW: T2 TRAINSPOTTING

By Dwight Brown (NNPA Newswire Film Critic)

“Trainspotting” was a breakthrough film back in 1996. An edgy, eccentric blend of debauchery and rebellion set to one of the best British rock soundtracks ever made.

Twenty years later, the original director Danny Boyle (“Slumdog Millionaire,” “28 Days Later”) and screenwriter John Hodge assemble the same set of Scottish miscreants and make them deal with the aftermath of a betrayal that affected all their lives.

In the ‘90s film, Mark (Ewan McGregor) and Simone, aka Sick Boy (Jonny Lee Miller), were best friends since childhood. In their midtwenties, they hung out with the tall skinny dullard Daniel “Spud” Murphy (Ewen Bremner) and the short, violent and temperamental Francis “Franco” Begbie (Robert Carlyle). The four of them, and other comrades, had one thing in common: heroin addiction. It united them. Broke them apart. Caused death and destruction.

Their depraved indifference to life and traditional mores ended with a dope deal gone bad. Mark, who flirted with sobriety, ran off with £12,000 pounds. He left Spud £4,000, which went right into his arm. Simone got nothing. Franco got a jail sentence and a grudge against Mark that was eating him alive.

In 2017, nearing middle age, Mark’s yuppyish job at a Dutch software company ends. He returns to the scene of the crime, Edinburg.

These days, Simone, a cokehead, is in love with a prostitute named Veronika (Anjela Nedyalkova). The couple makes money by blackmailing clients, “Johns,” who are secretly videotaped as they bed Veronika, who dresses up as a dominatrix.

Spud is a bit of a depressed loner.

In fact, Mark is banging at the door of his flat just as his dejected friend is attempting suicide. Mark saves his life and Spud’s sour response is: “You ruined my life, and my death.”

Meanwhile, the fiercely vindictive Franco is plotting an escape from jail.

The reunion of these four is fraught with more anger, deceit, maleficence, apologies and ill will than a feud between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.

It’s a hard task recapturing the dark humor and light spirits that made the original movie so shocking yet endearing. This script puts Mark and Simon on a mission to build a spa (brothel) that Veronika can operate.

Mark, whose libido knows no bounds, flirts with Veronika, knowing that

(From left-right) Jonny Lee Miller, Ewan McGregor and Anjela Nedyalkova in “T2 Trainspotting.” (Sony)

Simon loves her. But that’s Mark’s M.O: he can’t be trusted with a friend’s girlfriend. The character that gets the best facelift is Spud, who dares to dream big and finds an ounce of courage, when he had none in the first film. Franco, who makes a junkyard dog look like a prince, is so mean and violent he alienates himself from his family and goes after Mark with a sheer vengeance.

Boyle has a fun way with the footage. He will stop it cold; shoot scenes at odd angles (cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle, Slumdog Millionaire); Cut in flashbacks (editor Jon Harris, “Kingsman: The Secret Service”); and add colorful and textured dreamy images over scenes (production design Patrick Rolfe and Mark Tildesley; art direction Patrick Rolfe). It is a pleasure to watch him weave his artistic magic.

And though the soundtrack doesn’t boast a song as catchy as the first movie’s hit tune “Lust for Life,” some of the kinetic music has a throbbing beat.

Boyle’s innovation helps greatly as you realize that this script is not as fresh as the 1996 one, which was based on a novel

by Irvine Welsh. That screenplay treaded new territory that audiences couldn’t fathom: Poor Scottish adolescents, living in and around wealth and middle-class amenities, unable to hold down a nine-to-five and relegated to a parallel world. Their degeneracy and irresponsibility had no limits, and they were so oblivious to reality that a baby died while in their

custody. That stream of decadence was a jolt to the senses. Nothing in this film is quite as shocking. But then

again, what could be?

McGregor, Miller, Bremmer and Carlyle slip into their old characters,

friendships, jealousies and rivalries comfortably—like they were trying on a pair of old faded, torn jeans that still fit or dusting off old drug paraphernalia. At one point Veronika points out to Mark “You’re a tourist in your own youth.” That’s the way it feels watching these graying, saggy-eyed fortysomethings trying to get their mojo back. They can’t relive their lives, but they can die trying.

In the end, there is something woefully nostalgic about watching McGregor, Miller, Bremner and Carlyle running down the cobblestone streets of Edinburg with an urgency and abandonment that is similar to the chaos they wreaked in “Trainspotting.”

The guys are a few paces slower, and almost as reckless. Just like T2.
