Kim Foxx

This election cycle was a long, slow ride with the last 72 hours building with anticipation and nervous anxiety among candidates.

As the polls came to a close last night, gradually the results began to flash across the bottom of our screens for several hot primary races.

The power of the vote is dynamic and reflects the hard work of so many people that have marched, protested and lost their lives for change, for justice. The strength of women and the confidence in them from voters show that sexism, racism and classism should have no place in American elections.

Kim Foxx

The people’s choice, Kim Foxx, pulled the upset of the night, defeating scorned incumbent Anita Alvarez in the race for the Democratic nomination for Cook County State’s Attorney.

With 96 percent of precincts reporting as of the Chicago Defender’s press time, Foxx held a commanding two-to-one, 58 to 29 percent lead over Alvarez – 600,000 to 298,000 votes. Donna More trailed both at 13 percent and 134,000 votes.

The Cook County State’s Attorney race was one of the most heated election campaigns that we’ve seen since the Democratic mayoral primary race between then Cook County State’s Attorney Richard M. Daley, incumbent Mayor Jayne Byrne and the late Harold Washington in February 1983.

Resigning her position in May 2015 as the Chief of Staff to Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle, Foxx entered the Cook County State’s Attorney’s race last fall. Her road to perdition wasn’t an easy one, as she had to fight off critics that spoke of Preckwinkle’s strategic backing of Foxx’s candidacy.

An attorney and former prosecutor that worked in the juvenile courts, Foxx’s prosecution record was constantly challenged both by Donna More and incumbent Alvarez.

Foxx’s campaign began to swell as the building anger over the delayed video release of Laquan McDonald’s murder washed over the public. Alvarez repeated excuses of defending her decision to wait 400 days to bring charges against Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke for the execution of 17-yearold McDonald.

The disturbing truth of work overload, heightened bail bonds, detainment for non-violent crimes, and rising juvenile convictions for felony charges, fed a cycle of “doing business as usual” with

in the Cook County State’s Attorney’s office.

Enough was enough. Cover-ups and a $5 million settlement approved by the Chicago City Council to McDonald’s family pushed community leaders and activists in the spotlight as demands for Alvarez’s resignation became the greatest motivation for voter registration in over 20 years.

It was apparent that change was necessary, and although former U.S. district attorney prosecutor Donna More has a plethora of experience, her campaign strategy did not spark a flame compared to Foxx’s fire.

Her win in this race was not about defeating Anita Alvarez; it was about igniting a real urgency in criminal justice reform. It was also about showing people that change is possible if we come together for a justified cause. Our vote does matter.

Hillary Clinton

As of the Chicago Defender’s press time, Hillary Clinton clung to a one percent, roughly 20,000-vote lead over Bernie Sanders, with 97 percent of precincts counted for the Democratic presidential nomination, which has 156 Illinois delegates at stake.

02 March 16 - 22, 2016 • THE CHICAGO DEFENDER

With both candidates canvassing the Chicago and Illinois landscape, it was a battle to the finish line. Clinton gained a great deal of women and die-hard President Bill Clinton supporters who were more seasoned in pushing the Democratic Party agenda than younger, liberal Sander supporters.

Sanders’ message clearly connected with the social activist movement through better engagement and strategic social media, printed collateral and television presence.

Illinois was a very critical state for the Clintons as old friends were called upon, such as Congressman Danny Davis, Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky, Rev. Jesse Jackson, and Congressman Bobby Rush. Key faith leaders also showed their solidarity, traveling with Hillary throughout the final days leading up to the election.

From rallies held in Vernon Hills, Evanston and the West Loop to visiting neighboring Chicago communities like Pilsen, Austin and Roseland, the message was clear – both the Black and Brown vote was crucial to winning Illinois.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER • March 16 - 22, 2016 03

HEALTH Eleana Elan Defender Contributing Writer In 1983, the first National Conference on Black Women’s health was held in Atlanta at Spelman College and launched the National Black Women’s Health Project.

From there, the women who navigated the project examined and faced the racial discrimination, the gender disparity, began to push against a medical system that treated its female patients like children.

Across the nation women began to act aggressively about the quality of their healthcare and became participants rather than remain passive receivers.

They demanded reproductive rights, a demystification of medical care, and access to information about their own health. This interest is the empowering factor.

Creating a database from research was key to better understanding Black women’s health.

One thing recognized immediately, where there are Health Centers and Birthplaces, or birthing centers most white women will use the preventive care services, while few Blacks did.

Though there are many reasons why the most important is the isolation that Black women experience and the quagmire that snared us in a conspiracy of silence that kept us victims of the oppression that racism, sexism, classism and homophobia fueled.

As a consequence, mistakenly Black women believed that we somehow brought all the bad (rape, molestation, and other forms of violence) upon ourselves. Even illness somehow collapsed in this thinking.

Thirty years later though we continue to face some of the same conditions that challenged us then we live in an even more polarized political climate exacerbated by a global financial recession and high unemployment rates that render us all vulnerable especially the Black community.

The good news is the new Obamacare health care legislature that provides greater access to better care allowing us to take charge of our health and manage our own well being.

Women no longer have to make co-payments for preventative services such as mammograms, Pap tests, STDs testing – it’s up to us to get the screenings; and to take advantage of all the other benefits extended to us through Bema Care.

The initiative is about Health First, before pedicures, manicures and hair weaves. So we have to address the health challenges that Black women seem to have a greater propensity for than others.

Though not isolated and independent of structural racism, classism, cultural conditioning, environmental

This state limits our ability to enjoy life to the fullest and increases our risk of developing chronic and debilitating diseases such as hypertension, high Blood pressure diabetes, hear disease, and some cancers.

In 2010 Black women’s mortality rate was 33 percent higher than white women’s. Many things evolved from and emerged out of the Black Women’s Health Imperative focus groups, round tables and surveys but one thing stood out and was confirmed.

“When you ask a Black woman about the state of her health, she will find a way to tell you she’s healthy even if she’s not,” according to Byllye Y. Avery founder, Black Women’s Health Imperative.

It’s time for Black women to let go of old dysfunctional behaviors no matter the reasons or rationale. It’s time to transform our thinking and adopt a new attitude of commitment to our own well being.

Information has always been power because it provides options, which empowers you with the ability to choose. We’ve come along way but we are in a long distance run for our lives so moving forward woman by woman and one woman at a time we must choose Health First.

become huge if not managed. For instance there are still too many unplanned pregnancies by young unmarried women who have practiced unprotected sex.

Some get off with a pregnancy while many are infected with an STD like herpes or worse HIV that impairs their health for the rest of their lives. So making choices based on knowledge and information is crucial to support the commitment to your personal health.

Stop making excuses about being “big boned,” or “Black men like us thick.” And all your big girl idols, from Star Jones, to Mo’nique to Oprah to Queen Latifah have all sought to lose the unnecessary weight that pressures your heart, stresses your knees, expands you feet, and puts a strain on your lungs increases blood pressure and makes it more likely for you to suffered from cholesterol issues.

Obesity also leads to diabetes due to the added pressure on their body’s ability to use insulin to properly control blood sugar levels, and are therefore more likely to develop diabetes.

Obesity leads to many health issues like high blood pressure, some cancers, Gallbladder disease and gallstones, Osteoarthritis, Gout, Breathing problems, such as sleep apnea (when a person stops breathing for short episodes during sleep) and asthma, and stokes.

It also leads to heart disease and heart attacks, heart failure and can lead to death from any one of the aforementioned.

Choose today to help change your health and contribute to changing the statistic from 70 to 20 of Black women being overweight or obese. Start walking today and think differently about the way you eat.

Think of your health as a lifestyle change.

Check your insurance and make an appointment. Go see about your eyes, ears and skin; oral health, which can affect your body in ways that you, can’t imagine such as paralysis.

Get a general health check up: Weight and height, HIV test, thyroid; heart health – blood pressure and cholesterol; blood glucose and bone density; get your mammogram, clinical breast exam; pap test and pelvic exam; STD tests, colorectal health tests, and skin tests for moles and unusual appearances of your skin.

E NOTES

By Kai EL’Zabar

Defender Executive Editor

Hope We Voted For Our Interests Yesterday Well, we can’t say that the presidential race has not been interesting, what with the Republicans’ 20 or so candidates who started out running and Ben Carson going neck to neck with Donald Trump for a moment.

On the Democratic side, Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton have dueled it out across the states, conjuring up some good, some bad feelings.

But there has been nothing like the loss of all decorum like that seen at the Trump rallies.

However, the Trumpism has set a bar so low that it’s embarrassing. Even if you didn’t like Trump before, you somehow thought him to be more sophisticated than his behavior as a candidate for his first office has revealed.

We are expected to research, read about, and listen to the candidates to get a sense of what manner of people they are.

If we do that, if we do our due diligence, then we will select the candidate whom we think will best serve our interests and deliver outcomes.

Unfortunately, too many of us are driven by emotional attachments to idealism that is not grounded in the reality of what elections are all about.

I have been known to say that marginalized people in America – the group into which Black

and Brown people fall – tend to seek a Messiah who can walk on water and turn toxic water into the fresh, healthy water so badly needed in Flint, Michigan and other areas around the country.

However, that is hardly the case. Too often, candidates say what they know the people want to hear and they get swept up in the idealism of it all.

People are looking for the Lone Ranger who can fight the ills of politics and in one magic sweep make it all go away. Gee, what a wonderful feat that would be.

However, in politics we don’t want or need feats; we need a plan that can go through the democratic process and meet the needs of the public. We need a leader who can navigate the unchartered waters and come out a winner.

but has rarely been demonstrated across racial, ethnic, religious, and nationalistic lines.

Since the 1980s, it appears more and more that our humanity has been thrown out of the game and the Wall Street corporate raider attitude has been adopted throughout all aspects of our lives.

is only as great as the men that interpret them, or protect them as they were written to be expressed.

As The Race, we better than most know what it means to be the victim of brunt polarization of a philosophy. To be reduced from human status to give justification for the inhumane treatment

The Skills To Deliver For example, we need legislation like Obamacare, formally known as the Affordable Care Act. It takes a skilled strategist and negotiator to achieve such goals – one who has knowledge of the law, as well as of all the players in the game. One who knows their strengths, their weaknesses, what they want and are willing to sacrifice, and who possesses the skill to negotiate and be able to deliver.

At the end of the day, politics is about relationships and knowing how to work with people, in particular the elected officials with whom they serve the public. At the end of the day, what an elected official is supposed to do is to be for the good of the people.

Too often, what we’ve witnessed is the total neglect of that concept and parties split based on more than a difference in perspective. More and more, we see elected officials bought off by their drunken greed, which is paid for by lobbyists to satisfy big business and line their own pockets.

Do we shy away from the corporate moguls that have a tendency to want to take over and rule the world? No it’s as basic and as old as man.

Modern man is still moved by primal instincts, yet it is our presumed intellect that is assumed to be our inner guidance, directing us to be all caring about mankind and our fellow man.

It was a way of thinking at some point in history amongst tribes,

06 March 16 - 22, 2016 • THE CHICAGO DEFENDER

“If the people that govern the law are not bound by a sense of humanity and integrity, all the laws in the world won’t matter.”

We appear to be better adept at exhibiting some semblance of humanity in response to crises like 911, Hurricane Katrina, tsunamis, etc. – that’s when folks come out and show compassion.

However, the role of government is to represent that sentiment on the front end. It is to protect the interests of the people for the good of the nation.

orth The Paper W It’s Written On The Constitution is one of the most humane legal documents of its kind. It truly addresses what modern man would define as tenets of freedom. However, time has taught us that such dogma

heaped upon us and to suffer the terror and repeated degradation and total disregard of our lives as a collective.

Yet we have gone forward with dignity and respect for life, moving peacefully against the violence enacted upon us, because by example we sought to teach through our actions that life begets life.

Should we want to be treated humanely, then we must represent what humanity looks like in the eye of the storm. Our behavior throughout the Civil Rights Movement proved to the world that we were worthy of humanity – not the Constitution, nor the Civil Rights Acts of 1866.

The Civil Rights Act of 1866 granted citizenship and the same rights enjoyed by white citizens to all male persons in the United States “without distinction of race or color, or previous condition of slavery or involuntary servitude.”

This act was the first United States federal law to define citizenship and affirm that all citizens are equally protected by the law.

There were the Reconstruction Civil Rights Acts of 1867 and 1875, which were passed by the U.S. Congress to make full citizens of and guarantee the rights of the freed slaves.

The Civil Rights Act of 1875 was a federal law enacted to guarantee African Americans equal treatment in public accommodations, public transportation, and to prohibit exclusion from jury service.

And finally, there was the landmark 1964 Civil Rights Act that outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. It ended unequal application of voter registration requirements and racial segregation in schools, at the workplace, and by facilities that served the general public, known as public accommodations.

Powers given to enforce the 1964 Act were initially weak, but were supplemented during later years. Congress asserted its authority to legislate under several different parts of the Constitution, principally its power to regulate interstate commerce; its duty to guarantee all citizens equal protection of the law under the 14th Amendment; and its duty to protect voting rights under the 15th Amendment.

My point is, the words are on paper, they’ve been there, clear and legal, but if the people that govern the law, interpret the law, determine how the laws are applied, dictate the law, and enforce the law, are not bound by a sense of humanity and integrity, then all the laws in the world won’t matter.

We have experienced that, too.

We are still experiencing it. So I hope that you went to the polls yesterday with all that in mind and made your choices based on who you think will best serve your interests of being thought of as human in the context of their work that preceded their run for office. www.chicagodefender.com

Holding the hands of mothers who lost loved ones to gun violence – Annette Holt (mother of Blair Holt), Pamela Bosley (mother of Terrell Bosley), Geneva Reed-Veal (mother of Sandra Bland), among other parents – became the anthem of both Democratic candidates in showing their empathy to the gun violence that plagues our communities and the victims that it claims.

Clinton has positioned herself to fight for jobs remaining in the United States, bringing more economic assistance to small businesses, and immigration reform.

As we move forward to the general election in November, would Hillary Clinton as the nominee have enough power to push out Donald Trump’s catastrophic movement of modern Jim Crow values?

A Clinton win in Illinois would push Bernie supporters towards a narrower choice – vote for Clinton in the general election or allow Trump to be our next United States President.

eral investigation on her and her husband, and an employee in her office accused of lying to a federal grand jury, Brown stood her ground and maintained her innocence.

As another hit to her office, the Cook County Democratic Party passed on endorsing her for a fourth term in office. Not skipping a beat, Brown moved forward in almost military fashion with a straightforward “boots to the ground” campaign against party endorsed Ald. Harris.

Because of her strong community engagement and consistency in connecting with her constituents in both the city and suburbs, her win was a serious black eye for the Cook County Democratic Party machine.

Andrea Zopp

Dorothy Brown

This seasoned political veteran pulled off an easy – some say upset – victory against the Cook County Democratic Party, Mayor Rahm Emanuel, and other naysayers in keeping her seat as Clerk of the Circuit Court of Cook County, a position she has held since 2000.

As of Defender press time, Brown held a 48 to 31 percent lead over Dem Party endorsed candidate 8th Ward Ald. Michelle Harris with a vote margin of 446,571 to 287,117 after 96 percent of the precincts had reported.

The candidate endorsed by most majority media outlets, Jacob Meister, trailed with 22 percent of the count, and only 205,106 votes.

School board role in the closing of over 50 schools predominately in Black communities. However, the decision to shut down these schools was a collective effort and one that was in place before Mayor Rahm Emanuel won his election in 2010.

Shifting the blame on one member of the six-member school board when they are seeking a public office is an easy target, but the question the Chicago Defender asked numerous times was: Where is Tammy Duckworth in the Black community?

Zopp, an advocate for youth job placement and professional development for entrepreneurs, dedicated her time and efforts to the African-American community through the Chicago Urban League for five years. Prior to this, she has demonstrated continuous guidance and mentorship to rising female attorneys in both the public and private sectors.

In the final few weeks leading to the primary election, we witnessed a shift of support to Andrea Zopp, including key publication endorsements from city and downstate papers to other public officials, faith leaders and business owners.

Although not every person of color felt warm and fuzzy about supporting Zopp’s candidacy, the candidacy of Illinois State Senator Napoleon Harris was not enough to bump Duckworth out of the running for the general election.

Nonetheless, the Chicago Defender is pleased with our endorsement of Andrea Zopp because her campaign demonstrated a level of integrity, class and character that was lacking in many campaigns this primary.

The second African-American female candidate for the Illinois U.S. Senate seat was soundly defeated by Democratic Congresswoman Tammy Duckworth in the primary. As of the Defender’s press time, Zopp trailed by a 64 to 25 percent, and was behind by more than 600,000 votes with 85 percent of precincts reported.

Zopp, the former president of the Chicago Urban League, had a rocky beginning in securing the support from other African-American public officials and leaders.

But as the climate surrounding Laquan McDonald escalated, the necessity of having transparency in our elected offices became very apparent. Zopp’s career as a seasoned Cook County prosecutor and corporate general counsel began to be noticed.

The lack of diversity on the United States Senate floor is tremendous and not since Senator Carol Moseley-Braun has there Juliana Stratton been another elected female senIn another significant, exator from Illinois.

in the race for the Democratic nomination for Illinois House Representative in the 5th District.

At the Defender’s press time, Stratton more than doubled Dunkin with 68 percent of the vote compared to 32 percent for Dunkin, or 17,000 votes to Dunkin’s 8,000, with 84 percent of precincts reporting.

In a rare move of a sitting U.S. president taking sides in a statehouse race, President Barack Obama endorsed

Stratton and even cut a radio and TV spot for her.

The race was so hotly contested because Dunkin has recently showed his independence of Dem Party king Mike Madigan to work across the aisle on some initiatives with Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner.

In other races of note, incumbents Danny Davis, Bobby Rush and Robin Kelly all won their contests handily, with winning percentages ranging from 72 to 81 percent.

During the summer of 2011, Kenneth Mannie, CEO of Coordinating Care Health Services, Inc. (CCHS Inc.) – a health care insurer that specialized in Medicare, over 65 clients – was recruited by a Field Marketing Organization (FMO), Healthcare Solutions Team of Lombard, IL whose focus is providing health insurance to clients under 65.

Healthcare Solutions Team – a marketing organization – served as a liaison between larger health care insurance companies like WellCare, out of Tampa, Florida and smaller insurance producers like CCHS Inc. Already a successful health insurance producer in the country, CCHS’s purpose for joining Healthcare Solutions’ Team was to further penetrate the market, expand its network and partner with Healthcare Solutions, who had articulated their goal of expanding into the over 65, Medicare market.

Mr. Mannie was initially enthusiastic about the newly found relationship with Healthcare Solutions and its manager Peter Benson was mutually excited and supportive of the partnership.

Mannie, a resident of Glenwood, Illinois traveled regularly to Lombard, Illinois to attend business and training meetings with the FMO to learn about its policies and procedures.

After attending Monday morning sales meetings for about six to seven months, Mannie began to take notice of how Health Solutions Team soon appeared to lose its desire to expand their services to Medicare clients.

According to Mannie, “We joined because we were led to believe that Health Solutions Team wanted to get involved in

the Medicare market. Not true, so our relationship soured fairly quickly.”

Mannie stated, “During the meetings, whenever a question came up about Medicare, since that was my area of expertise, questions were directed to me.

At some point, the Director, Eric Shaw, approached me and asked me to stop answering questions about Medicare.” Mr. Mannie says he obliged and eventually pulled away from the group around the beginning of 2012.

According to Mannie, roughly 18 months later, around November 2013, he received notification from his business banking institution that there were transactions on the account that were “inconsistent” with all the others.

Upon investigating, Mannie discovered “four unauthorized transactions going to three different insurance companies, some for over 13 months.”

Mannie was able to trace the transactions back to his former supervisor at Healthcare Solutions Team – Peter Benson. Mr.

“DOI did all this without a shred of evidence in their hearing.”

--According to Mr. Mannie Benson allegedly had the policies going to an address connected to him in Joliet.

The Chicago Defender reached Mr. Benson by phone and he declined to comment on the situation, saying he had just had a stroke.

However, in documents provided to the Chicago Defender, in

an email dated August 9, 2014, from Mr. Benson to Christina Austen – a vendor of Healthcare Solutions Team – Mr. Benson states, “Ken Mannie requested from me the accident policy and dental. He was one of my agents who specialized in Medicare Supplements. He wanted the accident policy because he played basketball once a week.

He gave me his routing and checking account numbers to submit the polic(ies).”

Mr. Mannie denied that he had requested the insurance policies from Mr. Benson. He stopped the automatic deductions from his account and demanded that the three different insurance companies refund his money in full.

The first two insurance companies, Nebco and Colorado Banker’s Life, immediately complied and refunded the full amounts, but the third company – Times Insurance – gave Mannie a difficult time.

Times Insurance initially sent him two separate checks that totaled $8, according to Mannie,

and put a stop payment on the checks. After contacting Times Insurance, he said they sent out another check for a little less that $3,000; however, Mannie contacted the issuing bank and was told there was a stop payment on the check. He said he returned the checks to Times Insurance.

Consequently, Times Insurance contacted the Department of Insurance (DOI) on September 15, 2014, made specific allegations against Mr. Mannie and terminated him “for cause,” according to documents reviewed by the Defender. Mr. Mannie filed a formal complaint against Times Insurance with the DOI on October 27, 2014.

DOI, in turn, accused Mr. Mannie, stating, “The licensee altered a premium refund check received from an insurer in an attempt to deprive the owner of its assets.”

The investigation further concluded that Mr. Mannie had engaged in “dishonest practices, demonstrated incompetence, and untrustworthiness in the conduct of business in this state, which is cause for revocation and levying of civil penalties of the Illinois Insurance Code.”

On December 9, 2015, DOI issued a final decision, suspending his license for 18 months, preventing him from working in Illinois as an insurance producer. It fined him $3,000 for a civil penalty and ordered him to pay $665 in court fees.

According to Mr. Mannie, “DOI did all this without a shred of evidence in their hearing. There was no evidence of a forged check, no physical proof, and no proof of how they had conducted their investigation was ever provided to my attorney.” Mr. Mannie has appealed the DOI suspension and his next court date is June 6, 2016.

The Chicago Defender contacted his attorney, who did not respond to our inquiry. Also, at press time, the DOI had not responded to our FOIA request.

And WellCare had not responded to our email request. www.chicagodefender.com

POLITICS George E. Curry Defender Contributing Writer

Most racial, ethnic, religious, and political groups in the United States vote for people who appear to represent their best interests. Yet when African Americans do the same thing, many people seem surprised, including some African Americans.

Blacks realize what is at stake in this presidential election and have ignored the naysayers who thought that just because Barack Obama’s name is not on the ballot this year, Black voters would stay home.

Not only are they not staying home, we’re seeing in the Southern states – where more than half of all African Americans live – that Blacks are voting in record numbers.

African Americans in South Carolina got the Clinton juggernaut rolling. The New York Times observed: “(Hillary) has won South Carolina in a rout, 73.5 percent to 26 percent, exceeding Mr. Obama’s own 29-point victory in 2008.

“She did it the same way that Mr. Obama did: with overwhelming support from Black voters, who favored Mrs. Clinton over Bernie Sanders by a stunning margin of 87 to 13, according to updated exit polls – a tally that would be larger than Mr. Obama’s victory among Black voters eight years earlier.

“Black voters represented 62 percent of the electorate, according to exit polls, even higher than in 2008.”

No, they weren’t “feeling the Bern” in South Carolina. Nor were they feeling it on Super Tuesday in the six states where Blacks have an above-average share of the Democratic vote – Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, Arkansas and Texas.

Sanders chose to campaign in five states with a higher proportion of White voters: Colorado, Minnesota, Massachusetts, Oklahoma and Vermont, his home state. www.chicagodefender.com

OPINION: Why Blacks Are Voting For Hillary Clinton holds a commanding lead in delegates and after the voting on Super Tuesday on March 5, and March 15 contests in Illinois, Florida, Missouri, North Carolina, and Ohio, she could amass so many delegates that Sanders will be left with no viable option except to end his long-shot candidacy.

Being for Hillary Clinton does not mean that African Americans are against Sanders. Both Democratic candidates have A-ratings on civil rights. Each would appoint Supreme Court justices in the mold of Thurgood Marshall, rather than Clarence Thomas.

And each is attuned to the many issues facing Black Americans, including income inequality, unemployment, and a deeply flawed criminal justice system.

The difference is that Hillary Clinton has a long relationship with Blacks, doing civil rights work in the South and going to work for the Children’s Defense Fund after graduating from law school.

“There is no more important issue awaiting the new president than appointing at least two, possibly three, Supreme Court justices. “

Bernie Sanders’ claim to fame is that he joined Dr. King and other civil rights leaders in the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

That was nearly 53 years ago.

More than half of all African Americans were born after the March on Washington. To them, the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s is as remote as the Civil War of the 1860s.

Sanders’ Not So “Black” Vermont is less than two percent Black. It hasn’t helped that major Black leaders there say they have been invisible to Sanders.

Salon.com noted, “There are nearly 10 times more Black people locked up in Vermont’s jails and prisons on a given day than there are free in its streets. Black Vermonters make up just 1.2 percent of the state’s general population, but 10.7 percent of its incarcerated population.”

If Sanders was that concerned about the criminal injustice system, he could have been more outspoken about the issue at home.

One of Hilary’s problems is that she gets blamed for the actions of her husband when he was president. He and Vice President Al Gore were instrumental in moving the Democratic Party more to the right than before his election.

His policies on mandatory sentencing and so-called welfare reform were harmful to many African Americans. Hillary gets the blame for his failures, as well as the esteem in which many Blacks still hold Bill Clinton.

But this race is not about the past; it’s primarily about the future. And there is no more important issue awaiting the new president than appointing at least two, possibly three, Supreme Court justices.

But to do that, one must first get elected. Again, Black voters feel that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has a better chance of getting elected than Sanders, a self-described democratic socialist.

On the other side of the aisle, Republicans are tripping over one another trying to derail Donald Trump.

These are GOP candidates who have shown zero sensitivity toward people of color and pretended to be so offended that Trump did not immediately reject the support of former Klansman David Duke.

Every Republican presidential candidate has tried to velcro his campaign to the legacy of Ronald Reagan, one of the most anti-civil rights presidents in modern history.

Not one of them has said a word about the former president’s decision to kick off his 1980 presidential campaign at the Neshoba County Fair, just a few miles from Philadelphia, Mississippi, where three civil rights workers – James Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner – were murdered in 1964.

That’s not surprising because the remaining candidates are trying to appeal to the same crowd.

PROFILE Robert T. Starks

embroiled in the controversy over the fate of the South Shore Country Club, which had been taken over by the City of Chicago.

Defender Contributing Writer

The board members and staff of the Black United Fund of Illinois (BUFI) are tremendously saddened by the passing of the leader of this iconic organization, Henry English.

After the Chicago Park District took possession of the county club property, and the city rejected an offer from the Nation of Islam to buy it and convert it into a hospital, the Black community demanded that the property be renovated and become a city park.

As chair of the board, I have received hundreds of calls, emails, and letters from people who have expressed their sorrow at the passing of this unselfish leader.

BUFI board member Bernard Williams and Attorney Michael Smith joined the community movement to convince the Park District to renovate the country club and give it park status. These activists recruited Henry English, Raynard Hall, Bob Williams, Rita Wilson, Robert Currie, Carol Adams, Harold Lucas, Geraldine De Haas, and me to a group that was called The Coalition to Save South Shore Country Club.

Henry was indeed an unselfish man who welcomed the people who sought his counsel and help.

We often wondered how he was able to spend sometimes 10 to 12 hours a day in his office fielding written and verbal communications, and meeting with endless numbers of people.

Sometimes he went to 10 meetings a week in the city and often to Springfield, and he was constantly engaging young people who sought his advice and help. All of this was in addition to his serving as fiscal agent and providing technical assistance to hundreds of grassroots organizations. Too often, Henry took sole responsibility for projects instead of delegating some of this work to staff.

he Man That We T Called Henry Henry L. English was born on May 27, 1942 in West Point, Mississippi to Flozell and Julie Pearl (Smith) English. His family migrated to the West Side of Chicago and Henry attended Farragut High School, where he played football and was an outspoken student leader.

Later, Attorney Smith dubbed it “A Palace for the People” and the name was changed to The Coalition to Save the South Shore Country Club Cultural Center, implying that it would be a public facility that would provide a range of cultural programs and services for the community.

ENTERTAINMENT Mary L. Datcher

Chicago attended the VIP screening here.

That the problems the 18 Black athletes faced during the 1936 Olympics were more hostile back home in the United States than in Nazi-ruled Germany is a telltale sign of the deep rooted wounds that still affect us to this day.

In writing and researching this documentary, Draper discovered a disconnect between Germany’s accountability of the Nazi period and America’s Jim Crow racism.

She said, “The Germans struggle to deal with the Third Reich the way Americans struggle to deal with Jim Crow. They are working to try to put these photos and footage in public domain so that people can see it, compared to what we know about Jim Crow. The lynching, the police brutality and segregation. We know more about Nazis than we know about lynchings. I think our information is more suppressed.”

Arts & Entertainment Editor In a time where our freedom of speech and civil liberties are challenged by the constraints of government control and social injustices, the thin line between politics and arts has dissipated.

The voices of liberty and justice have always found a way through visual, literary, musical and theatrical presentations.

The unspoken stories of our ancestors through their struggles and growth have lain dormant for decades, sometimes centuries, until it raises the curiosity of one mind and they try to bring them forth.

Deborah Riley Draper, a former advertising executive, is the writer and director of Olympic Pride, American Prejudice.

Draper’s company, Coffee Bluff Pictures, is a film production company whose work includes Versailles ’73: American Runway Revolution. This latest undertaking has been a labor of love for the past three years, which has now come down to the final cut stage.

Explaining her vision, Draper says, “Eighteen African Americans in the opening Olympic ceremonies in Nazi Germany in 1936 was a beautiful site in the footage. The world could see them; the world could see ‘us’. That meant possibilities and that meant the future.”

The film is co-executive produced and narrated by long-time veteran actor Blair Underwood and the Chicago Defender had a chance to discuss in detail his involvement and the importance of preserving our history.

“I came on board and told Deborah that I was blown away by this story. I would support her any way I could to help tell the story and help get the word out there in any way shape, or form. So, we’re co-executive producers together in the end. I’m excited about it,” said Underwood. “I want to give her all of the credit.”

As a part of the DuSable Museum of African American History’s Black History month series, they partnered with the Illinois Holocaust Museum and Education Center to present a “work-in-progress” screening of Olympic Pride, American Prejudice a few weeks ago.

Showing the film to a nearly packed theater in an environment that showcases the rich history of African American culture was a great setting for both Draper and Underwood.

“It’s absolutely critical that we preserve our history, our story, our legacy, our heritage. That’s why it was appropriate that we did the screening at the DuSable Museum,” Underwood said. “We never let anyone else define us as a cul-

Nonstop Career Born in Tacoma, Washington, the son of U.S. Army Colonel, Underwood moved around to several military bases throughout the States and Germany growing up. He went on to attend Carnegie Mellon School of Drama in Pittsburgh, following his older brother to join Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity.

Upon touching down in New York to pursue a professional acting career, he was cast the same week in his first feature film, Krush Groove, and in his debut appearance on The Cosby Show.

His nonstop career has been filled with roles between television and film features, including One Life to Live, L.A. Law, Set It off, Deep Impact, Sex in the City, Ironside (2015), and In Treatment, for which he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 2009 Golden Globe Awards.

He stays on the radar of filmmakers and producers. So it’s projects such as Olympic Pride, American Prejudice that resonate with Underwood, as he wants to share in-

Strenuous Research

“Those whom you allow to define you will confine you.

So I don’t let people define me.” formation with people, especially students, that he feels may not otherwise receive this kind of history lesson.

“We just touch upon the surface when it comes to what’s being taught in our schools, and what is relayed forward. So, this is just one of millions of stories that are being uncovered that’s been there and happened,” Underwood explained.

Making this film took a strenuous commitment with researching the athletes and reaching out to German officials. Although it was a turbulent time in the country’s history, Draper found their cooperation very generous in her fact finding.

Dealing with a similar process of research for her first documentary, Versailles ’73: American Runway Revolution, she found that Germans are more open to share information during a dark time in their history.

“My first film required the same process in the same manner. I shot in France and in the States. This one I shot in Germany and the States.

They were very similar in the locations and the tremendous amount of archival research involved,” says Draper. “Finding footage and photos and tracking down participants who were there. The witnesses, the journalists, the spectators, very similar.

“The difference was France in 1973 versus Nazi Germany in 1936, eighty years ago. Trying to get into the German archives and figure out who was still alive in Berlin that witnessed these African-American athletes. Also, who was still alive in America as well.”

Unfortunately, none of the 18 Black athletes are still living. However, five of their families that reside in

Underwood said he and his wife, Desiree, who are proud parents of two sons and one daughter, sometimes find themselves discussing race relations with their children.

“What I say to my sons, 19 and 14, and my daughter, 17, is that you can never be afraid to speak truth to power. You have that power. In this day and age, where we have technology and history and the laws on our side, you don’t let anyone demean or diminish you. If you understand that you have that power, you understand you have a system to fight.”

When it comes to addressing the issues of police brutality and growing up as an African-American male, Underwood shares a similar message with his sons.

“My message to my boys is, understand you are my sons that are gorgeous and wonderful and brilliant, but to many people to this world you are a threat,” Underwood said “What they see is a threatening figure as a Black man. With knowledge you have power, so when you understand that, you can carry yourself in a different way. If you’re disrespected, you know you have something to fight for and don’t be afraid to speak on that.”

The work of Olympic Pride, American Prejudice is a testament to the gifted athletes that represented not just their race, but their country. It is a mantra that Blair Underwood continues to live by every day.

“Those whom you allow to define you, will confine you,” he said. “So I don’t let people define me. I’m a son of God. I’m a husband. I’m a father.

I’m a son. I’m a brother. My race is not everything I am; it’s a part of who I am.” www.chicagodefender.com

FINANCE Constant Watson III Defender Contributing Writer A taxpayer’s problems with the Internal Revenue Service start in any number of ways, but it is seldom that a tax problem arises from a taxpayer setting out with the intention of defrauding the IRS. Most tax problem cases begin as the side effect of some serious life event. Some of the events that lead to tax problems are:

Divorce Divorce can result in unexpected tax liabilities. A spouse may start to receive alimony payments without being aware of the fact that this new form of income is taxable.

A divorce settlement may involve the liquidation of some material assets that result in taxable gains. A division of property is often facilitated by converting assets to cash, like an insurance policy, with the unexpected aspect of a tax liability.

A taxpayer may be divorced near the end of the year and find that taxes withheld from wages through the year were based on filing a joint tax return with several exemptions.

How Taxpayer’s Get Sideways with the IRS Because of the new filing status, as a single taxpayer, they find themselves grossly under withheld and facing a large, unexpected balance due.

This all might happen at the same time the taxpayer is incurring significant expenses trying to get re-established in a new life.

These situations can arise in the most amicable of divorces, but when a divorce becomes adversarial or even hostile, other issues may further complicate a taxpayer’s ability to file their tax return timely and properly.

If enough animosity is present, one spouse may withhold tax documents the other spouse needs to file a return or worse yet, may destroy tax and business records.

When the year ends, they prepare their tax return, only to learn there is a balance due. This starts a cycle of not filing that often runs for years before the IRS pursues them to the point they have no choice but to try to get back on track.

In another job loss scenario, a taxpayer withdraws funds from retirement accounts such as 401K plans or IRA accounts. They are attempting to maintain their old lifestyle while seeking new employment.

They think that because of the loss of earnings they will have reduced tax liability and that they need to hold onto as much as possible of their income until the new job is found.

Therefore, no taxes are withheld and the next tax return shows an insurbenefits after suffering the loss of mountable balance due.

Taxpayers are often shocked to find out that they owe taxes because they have suffered an economic reversal.

For example, under the cancellation of debt rules, a problem that ended up in the loss of an asset through abandonment, foreclosure, or repossession can cost them tax dollars.

The IRS treats the amount of debt that is cancelled or forgiven in these situations as taxable income. Note that there are exceptions to this rule that apply in bankruptcy and insolvency. Further, there is an exception that may apply if the forgiveness is related to a personal residence.

Remember, for every tax problem, there’s a solution.

Tuskegee Airmen’s 75th Anniversary Commemorate the Tuskegee Airmen’s 75th Anniversary in Select U.S. Movie Theaters March 29.

Presented by Fathom Events and Bryton Entertainment, this event pays tribute to America’s first African-American fighter pilots from World War II. In Their Own Words: The Tuskegee Airmen - The 75th Anniversary in select U.S. cinemas for the first time ever on Tuesday, March 29, at 7 p.m. This one-night cinema event features emotional interviews, rare photographs, archival footage and computer-generated recreations.

Audiences will also experience an exclusive panel discussion captured at the National Air Force Museum with Tuskegee Airman Lt. Col. George Hardy, former administrator of NASA Col. Fred Gregory, as well as the producer Bryan Williams and director Denton Adkinson.

Fans throughout the U.S. will be able to enjoy the event in nearly 200 movie theaters through Fathom’s Digital Broadcast Network.

Sixteen of the Tuskegee Airmen, America’s first African-American military aviators who flew the skies of the European Theater during World War II, are featured in this powerful event.

As African Americans were rejected in their attempts to enlist in World War I, the recruitment, training and combat of the Tuskegee Airmen in World War II was a monumental moment not only in American military history, but also in American history as a whole.

In Their Own Words: The Tuskegee Airmen – The 75th Anniversary tells the story of how these airmen were some of the first to begin the civil rights movement and have lived long enough to see the changes that resonate today.

“Fathom is extremely excited to be working with Bryton Entertainment on this powerful event that honors the Tuskegee Airmen.

2016 marks the 75th anniversary of these amazing fighters and there is no better way to celebrate these men than a documentary and panel discussion,” said Fathom Events CEO John Rubey.

“The enthusiasm in which the few remaining Tuskegee Airmen reacted to this news has been nothing short of fulfilling. These brave men made one request of us upon lending their story, ‘Never let our story die!’ We are thrilled to honor that request with Fathom Events on March 29, when this event hits theaters around the country,” said Bryan Williams of Bryton Entertainment, LLC. Tickets can be purchased online by visiting www.FathomEvents. com or at participating theater box offices.

RECIPE

Black America Donna Battle Pierce Syndicated Columnist, (Black Press Syndicate)

When it comes to ham, I’m considered an equal-opportunity enthusiast by my family and friends, who count on me to appreciate any bite from dishes ranging from whole hog to this tasty salad my mother served at her club luncheons.

For me, ham salads provide an ideal way to finish the remaining flavorful pieces of a celebration ham using country ham (preserved with salt), spiral cut and honey-glazed hams (fully-cooked) or even supermarket ham slices found near what my mother used to refer to as luncheon meat slices.

Because I’m a huge celery fan, I chop the flavorful stalks very coarsely. I chop the ham in my food processor, trying not to mince too finely into a paste. My mother cut the ham into uniform-pieces by hand.

You may want to follow Mom’s even ham cuts and more finely minced stalks, both of which added her signature mark of elegance.
