COVER STORY

The Challenges Continue to Grow

By Mary L. Datcher Defender Senior Staff Writer Who knew a 23-year-old rap artist from the South Side community of Chatham would shine attention on the budgetary problems that plague our public school system in Chicago? After receiving a congratulatory tweet from Gov. Bruce Rauner for winning three Grammy awards, Chancelor Bennett, aka Chance the Rapper, requested a sit-down meeting with the billionaire governor.

Nearly two weeks ago, after the young rapper met with Rauner, he didn’t hide his disappointment in the governor’s vague answers to his questions regarding the CPS budget deficit. It was a courageous move from Chicago’s most high-profile millennial jumping over the line with his nonprofit organization, SocialWorks.

With nearly 381,349 students enrolled in the 2016-2017 school year, and a $215 million deficit in state funding, the hardest hit are schools in low-income neighborhoods — African American and Latino students. For the past year, both CPS students and their parents have stood alongside educators from the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) — marching throughout the streets, threatening to strike in the fall.

Last year, working with a newly appointed CPS CEO, Forrest Claypool, who replaced ousted Barbara Byrd-Bennett, the former CEO who was indicted for receiving kickbacks from a no-bid contract, eroded the trust between CTU and CPS even more. Between the back-and-forth negotiations between the teachers’ new contract and a struggling school year budget — neither side wanted a strike, as CTU voted for one if necessary — cool heads prevailed and the school year began.

In the center of negotiations was former CPS teacher and principal Dr. Janice K. Jackson. A graduate of Chicago State University, earning her BA and MA — later earning her Ph.D. at the University of Illinois at Chicago — her rise through the CPS ranks landed her the key position of Chief Education Officer (CEdO) since July 2015.

Growing up in the Auburn Gresham community, she is a product of the Chicago Public School system since she began her education, attending John W. Cook Elementary and graduating from Hyde Park High School.

A fellow South Sider like Chance, she was beyond pleased with gratitude by last week’s announcement of SocialWorks’ $1 million donation.

“I have to really thank Chance for his donation on so many levels. I look at it from so many directions. As a representative for CPS, I’m obviously blessed. But as a fellow South Sider, I know his family well,” she said. “A lot of times when young people are out here doing what they’re doing, they don’t have that consciousness. What I appreciate about him is that he’s been wildly successful, but he’s still

Dr. Janice K. Jackson very conscious and very woke. From that standpoint, I appreciate what he did and it means a lot from us.”

Although Chance’s $1 million donation from concert ticket sales is a generous contribution to assist performing arts programming in selected schools, there is a great deal more needed.

Jackson says she feels that it shows leadership because the district needed more people stepping up to support CPS. Unfortunately, they can’t fund schools from the philanthropic community and donations alone.

“It’s the state’s responsibility to fund education. The Illinois Constitution says that plainly. We appreciate what he did and I think it caused attention on a large scale of what’s going on with CPS. But, at the end of the day, we’re supposed to have constant revenue,” Jackson said.

“A constant revenue stream so that the school districts throughout the state including Chicago, principals in every school can anticipate what their budget is going to be and plan for a school — plan for instruction around that.”

Addressing our Defender Editorial Board, Gov. Rauner was asked about why the state has not pushed through funding the $215 million. He says the current formula to fund CPS has been in place for several decades prior to his administration.

“Illinois has overly relied on local property taxes to fund schools, more than any other state. That means school districts with very little property value in lower-income areas have less amount of money to put in their school districts and this is just wrong. This denies the American dream to too many kids. We need more equity in the school funding,” said Rauner, who formed a bipartisan commission that is working on a proposed bill based on their recommendations.

In his fight with House Democrats in Springfield, he believes CPS is suffering from years of mismanagement because of allocated grant blocks.

“Chicago gets a block grant of $250 million that no other school district in Illinois gets because Chicago pays its own teachers’ pension. It’s the deal, it’s an

understanding. They come out slightly ahead when you look at the math. In the meantime, while Chicago gets the block grant, they have skipped the teachers’ pension payments in the 1990s and early 2000s,” the governor said.

Jackson says that although the district receives certain block grants, they are also the third-largest school district in the country.

“The state has given CPS fewer dollars each year. The governor would also say that CPS gets a lot of extra grants — block grants. We do, we get a special grant for special ed and all sorts of things. The fact is, and he can’t dispute this, when you put everything all in that the state gives CPS compared to what they paid out in other school districts, we get 75 cents for every dollar that every school system throughout the state receives.”

She explains. “The reason he won’t talk about this is because of the pension system. The pension is paid for in every other school district by the state except Chicago. Chicago residents pay the teachers’ pensions, but they also pay property taxes. Part of that goes to pay for pensions for other teachers throughout the state of Illinois,” said Jackson.

“So, if you are a Chicago taxpayer, you’re paying twice. You’re paying for CPS teachers and you’re also paying a part of the pension for others throughout the state. All we’re asking is to be treated fairly.”

As Chance and other business people step to the plate to assist CPS in helping students not to suffer through this mayhem, everyone agrees that Black and brown students from communities in need — 80.22 percent are economically disadvantaged — are hit the hardest compared to wealthier neighborhoods.

In Chance’s announcement via his Twitter account, SocialWorks announced the schools that would receive funds from his initial CPS donation.

• Nathan S. Davis Elementary School lost $98,119 in funding.

• Mahalia Jackson Elementary School lost $39,626 in funding.

• Charles Carroll Elementary School lost $120,046 in funding.

• Roberto Clemente High School lost $350,276 in funding.

• Paul Robeson High School lost $61,463 in funding.

• Orr Academy High School lost $143,472 in funding.

• Hirsch Metropolitan High School lost $65,503 in funding.

• Benito Juarez Community Academy lost $612,614 in funding.

•Christian Fenger Academy High School lost $58,059 in funding.

were available for an official statement.

Rauner, an advocate of charter schools and supporter of newly appointed U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, believes everyone should have a choice of quality education. “One of my frustrations is there has been traditionally a major disparity between the funding for some of the schools on the South Side and West Side versus some of the schools in the higher-income neighborhoods. That’s a fact.

I’ve been angry with this. I’ve been talking about and fighting on it for years. We need equal funding. We need proper support for all schools, not just schools in wealthier neighborhoods,” he said.

CPS Lawsuits

CPS has taken the gloves off and filed a lawsuit against the state for these funds that tips the playing field to other school districts, calling out the state for discriminatory practices and declaring Illinois teacher pension funding unlawful.

Five families of CPS students have filed the lawsuit.

Jackson admits race does play a component in how the state prioritizes funding to areas. “I’m excited about having a judge consider this, and ask is it really a disparity?

Are Black and brown children being treated differently because of the state funding system? Maybe that wasn’t the intent of the funding system when it was created, but the results end up looking like Black

It just happens that the majority of the students throughout the state are white,” she said.

“I’m glad the district took a bold step to file the civil rights lawsuit, and it gets away from duking it out in the media based on who gets a headline and what stories are written. If a judge looks at it, a judge who is impartial, they can make a decision.”

Unfortunately, this is not enough for CTU President Karen Lewis. The rift continues to widen between Claypool and the union as teachers struggle with a declining budget.

In response to a letter sent home to parents, Claypool mentioned the school district will cut off the school year as early as June 1 and cancel summer school if the court claims for more state monies. CTU is not taking the bait, saying in a statement, “He [Mayor Emanuel] would rather go toe to toe with aldermen on planting trees than drain the TIF surplus and reinstate a corporate head tax — two measures that would plug the budget hole today. Rahm has consistently chosen his billionaire buddies over the needs of our communities.”

Jackson hopes that a decision is met

quickly and swiftly to prevent a short school year from taking place.

“When we presented our case, the judge accepted the accelerated calendar.

If you take something to court, it can take years to get a resolution. We’re going to be arguing our case in front of a judge next month in April. This means the judge is taking the case seriously, and hopefully, we’ll have a result.”

Compared to other school districts outside of CPS, there are nearly 90 percent students of color who are in the system.

The triangulation between CPS, CTU and Gov. Rauner is like a dirty, nasty divorce, and our kids are in the middle of this ménage à trois of legislative red tape.

Building Trust

As each side battles through what they feel is best for the district’s students, Jackson understands the discord and distrust of CPS from the 50+ school closings in 2012 to the ongoing contractual and pension negotiations with CTU. “I believe you can work with CTU and labor unions in a productive way. Building and strengthening the trust is important to me. A lot of the break in the relationship in the CTU and CPS is just ‘trust.’ Things

have happened, so it takes time to heal that,” she said.

Understanding the importance and security schools provided for communities of color before drastic measures are made, and the community must be engaged throughout the process.

“CPS has been improving academically. Our test scores are higher, graduation rates are higher, and a lot of students ended up in better schools. Better is qualitative, but for some kids, when you’re being displaced from your school that can be traumatic. Taking that into consideration, the social emotional component needs to be a part of anything we do going forward.

It can’t just be you’re in a ‘better’ performing school, it must be what loss is a kid experiencing going from school A to school B.” A lifelong Chicagoan, Jackson grew up in the CPS system and, most important, her children attend CPS schools.

“So, when I make decisions, those aren’t decisions that are for other people’s children. I know what it’s like to be a teacher in this district. I know what it’s like to be a principal in this district and I know what it’s like to be a parent in this district. When I make decisions, it’s coming from those different lenses.”

Could this be the same lenses Chance the Rapper, a Jones Prep Academy alum, looks through as he prepares to give his own baby girl an opportunity to grow up in the same public school system?

Empowering Black Girls to be Leaders in Tech

Youths attend a Black Girls Code workshop. Black Girls Code is active in 13 cities across the country and even is in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Group discussion moderated by Shari Noland, Chicago Defender Executive Editor For a complete transcript and audio of the group discussion and a list of additional tech-training resources for kids, go to ChicagoDefender.com.

Much has been said about the lack of diversity in tech, particularly when it comes to Blacks and women. Black Girls Code launched in April 2011 with a mission to change that narrative through workshops and after school-programs across the country for girls. Now active in 13 cities across the United States and even in Johannesburg, South Africa, they hope to encourage, inspire, and empower the next generation of girls. We sat down with three of the Chicago chapter leaders to talk about being a Black woman in tech, what they are doing here in Chicago, and how they hope to groom future leaders.

The Black Girls Code Discussion Group Dyani Cox: Dyani is the technical lead for the Chicago core team for Black Girls Code. She has a bachelor’s and master’s in electrical engineering and is a senior account executive for the Mom Project.

Gloria Mullons: Gloria is a manager and trainer at a federally qualified health center. She recently obtained her Ph.D. in community psychology.

Monique Wingard: Monique’s background is in government, marketing and communications. She’s the community outreach lead, assisting in gaining new partnerships. She has a master’s in both social work and media management.

How do you respond to that?

Dyani Cox: Before I became a senior account executive, I worked as an engineer, both as a software engineer and then I went through the Edison Engineering Development Program at General Electric.

That is the case. First of all, you have to prove yourself as a woman, and second, you have to prove yourself as a woman of color. I found myself often in meetings thinking, “Is this man speaking to me like this because I am Black, because I’m young or because I’m a woman?”

With women, I think we are not taught to engage with men in that way. We are not taught to speak our minds and really to go toe-to-toe, for lack of a better word, with a man. That’s the woman issue I think that exists. The second issue that I think exists is as a woman of color, culturally we are taught that you should be grateful for this opportunity, right? Not that you worked hard. You should be there just like everyone else should be there because you earned

it, and as a matter of fact, sometimes you went over and beyond your counterparts.

Shari Noland: Now did you ever run into people who you felt didn’t think you had the same level of intelligence when it came to the tech world?

Dyani Cox: Absolutely. Every company has a diversity and inclusion initiative right now. So a lot of times it was like, you’re the token Black girl who got in because you are Black.

Monique Wingard: To not be called out, not to be singled out, or to get that feeling you should be grateful every time you come in the door. You just want to come in and do your job and do it well, but to not constantly be reminded that you should be grateful to be here.

Shari Noland: What do you find in attitudes of the young girls as they’re looking to learn more about coding or tech or any of that? Have women who’ve come before them who’ve maybe had a hard time influenced them?

Monique Wingard: I’ve seen where there’s been some parents who are actually in the field, but in other instances, I’ve

seen girls who’ve come in and they may be a little intimidated about what we’re going to learn today. But a sense of community happens immediately after the parents leave and it’s just the girls. We see them bond or make friends, and they help each other out. So the girl who started out being intimidated about not knowing the coding language may partner with the girl who knows a little bit more than her or a lot more, and she’s teaching her how to do that. By the time they leave they’ve all made a web page or made a mobile app or whatever our project is that day. It just creates a sense of empowerment for someone that young in less than a day.

Dyani Cox: Yes, and just to add on to that, I think that’s why an organization like Black Girls Code is important. Black Girls Code founder Kimberly Bryant was here speaking at Motorola, and a young Caucasian female stood up and said, “There are all these coding organizations, why is this one specific to Black girls?” I don’t think that the rest of the world gets that when you are a person of color sitting in a room, you are painfully aware of it, right? That’s the beauty in Black Girls Code. These girls come in and they are comfortable because they see other girls who look like them. In other organizations, you are a Black girl.

Like I said, you walk in the room and you know I’m the only Black girl here. She might see an Asian. There are hundreds of white girls, but I am the only Black girl. That can be intimidating all in itself.

Gloria Mullons: There are many studies out there about the digital divide. It’s a difference between the haves and the have-nots. If I have technology, I know how to use it, I’m exposed to it, great.

Then there are others who don’t have access to technology. It’s not in their homes. Their parents may be low literacy.

The neighborhood may be low resource.

There are no businesses. There are no places where these girls can go. If you’re not exposed to it at home and your community, then you go to school. If your continued on page 06

Community Spotlight: Amena Karim

By Shari Noland Defender Executive Editor As we dig deeper into solutions for making the tech world more diverse and inclusive in color and gender, it’s important to celebrate those who have broken digital barriers.

Amena Karim, a Chicago native who lives in the South Shore area with her 14-year-old daughter, is an international businesswoman who is working in the cutting edge software space of smart-home technology.

Although she recently joined Netatmo, a well-known brand in the European market and based in Paris, Karim has more than 20 years of sales and marketing experience in mobile connected technology at companies such as Motorola and US Cellular. At Netatmo, a startup that launched in 2011, she leads the marketing strategy for the United States, Latin America and Canada.

“We’re all based in France, so that’s where our research and development, engineers, human resources and the folks who make the products are,” said Karim.

“I go often, and the greatest thing for me is the whole cycle of product development from its inception to getting it into the hands of consumers.”

Netatmo’s products make your home more connected and safe through the simple use of a mobile app. From any location,

you can access a face-recognition security system or a climate-control monitor.

“We were one of the first companies to have face recognition for indoor security. It learns who the people are in your home. It will profile me. I’m saying me, but it could be my daughter, my baby-sitter, my family member. But if it’s a face that’s unfamiliar, you will get a motion indicator via your smartphone indicating that someone is in your home who’s unidentified,” said Karim.

Karim may often be on the go jet-setting around the Americas for her tech gig, but she also remains active in her South Shore community as a Special Services Area (SSA) commissioner. Appointed by former Mayor Richard M. Daley in 2011 and again by Mayor Rahm Emanuel in 2013 and 2015, Karim and seven others in SSA No. 42 take on district beautification projects, special events and other commercial and economic-development initiatives.

“Every year we throw South Shore festivals that draw a lot of big names. It’s just to take pride in your community and have the opportunity to walk to a concert without going to Lincoln Park, Ravinia or downtown when you can enjoy the beautiful venues within South Shore,” said Karim. “When you’re part of a community, there’s always a purpose. There’s shared goals and common interests, and that’s what the FSA 42 is supposed to represent.”

EDUCATION

FINANCE

Debt Cancellation and Income Taxes

By Constant W. Watson III Defender Contributing Writer

State AGs Urge Education Secretary to Protect Financial Aid

An adage teaches, “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” In recent months, the troubled Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS) tried and lost two legal attempts to recover eligibility for federal education funds.

But don’t be surprised if a third ACICS effort soon makes its way to the desk of U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos. DeVos brings to her position a long record of support for private education. The vast majority of schools formerly accredited by ACICS were private, for-profit colleges.

If ACICS sounds familiar to readers, there’s a reason. In December 2016, then-Education Secretary John B. King ruled that the educational accreditor would no longer be recognized by the department. That action also meant that none of ACICS’ 240 institutions would have access to federal funds – including the 17 institutions that have been sued by either state or federal officials for defrauding students and other deceptive practices.

Last year on Dec. 21, ACICS’ request for a temporary restraining order was denied. Then in late February, D.C.’s U.S. District Judge Reggie B. Walton refused to rescind the Education Department’s ruling.

So what would make ACICS and its institutions so determined to have federal funding restored?

The answer is money. Each year, $129 billion is spent on federal student aid. In just one year – 2015 – ACICS schools received nearly $5 billion in taxpayer dollars. It is also legal for up www.chicagodefender.com

to 90 percent of for-profit college revenues to come from Title IV federal aid. If veterans’ financial aid is added to that of Title IV, taxpayer dollars can subsidize even more than 90 percent of for-profit revenues.

These and other concerns have now led to attorneys general from 17 states and the District of Columbia sharing their collective concerns directly with DeVos. Among those signing the communique were attorneys general representing largely populated states such as Illinois, Maryland, New York, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

Points of Concern

Noting their support to protect students and taxpayers, the AGs’ letter alerted the new secretary to three specific and major concerns: 1. How for-profit schools have harmed student borrowers.

2. Why vigorous oversight of accreditors is in the best interests of taxpayers and students.

3. The importance of preserving two departmental rules – the Gainful Employment Rule and the Borrower Defense to Repayment rule set to go into effect at mid-year.

“We are deeply concerned that rollbacks of these protections would again signal ‘open season’ on students for the worst actors among for-profit post-secondary schools,” wrote the AGs. “Over the past 15 years, millions of students have been defrauded by unscrupulous for-profit post-secondary schools. With accreditors asleep at the wheel, state attorneys general offices have stepped in to stop some of the worst abuses.

“Many schools inflated job placement numbers and/or promised career services resources that did not exist,” continued the AGs. “Many students were placed in loans that the schools knew from experience their graduates could not pay. . . . In short, the entire

for-profit education system was failing students and taxpayers.”

The Gainful Employment Rule is designed to ensure that programs equip graduates with skills and employment opportunities that enable them to successfully repay their student loans.

Should annual loan payments be more than 30 percent of discretionary income or 12 percent of earnings in two out of three consecutive years, the educational program loses access to Title IV federal student loans and grants.

Similarly, the Borrower Defense to Repayment Rule, set to take effect on July 1, provides legal recourse for students who were harmed by for-profit colleges.

Many of the issues raised in the 7-page letter to DeVos were noted in an earlier report prepared and released last fall by the office of Sen. Elizabeth Warren. “[T]his taxpayer investment is wasted when student aid funds are funneled to sham colleges – many of which operate as for-profit entities that use federal student aid dollars to enrich top executives. Meanwhile, students are left with a shoddy education and a staggering debt load, unable to rely on their education to secure a job that will help them responsibly repay their loans,” states the report.

“The title of a recent Century Foundation report characterizes the situation we find ourselves in perfectly: The For-Profit College Story: Scandal, Regulate, Forget, Repeat,” said Robin Howarth, a senior researcher with the Center for Responsible Lending specializing in student loans and related debt. “We now have the opportunity to break this vicious cycle that is so costly to students and taxpayers. It’s imperative that we keep the pressure on for-profit colleges through prudent regulation and oversight, thus avoiding a repeat of past abuses.”

If a lender cancels part or all of a debt, a taxpayer must generally consider this as income. However, the law allows an exclusion that may apply to homeowners who had their mortgage debt canceled in 2016. Here are some IRS tips about debt cancellation that you should know.

1. Main Home. If the canceled debt was a loan on a taxpayer’s main home, they may be able to exclude the canceled amount from their income. They must have used the loan to buy, build or substantially improve their main home to qualify. Their main home must also secure the mortgage.

2. Loan Modification. If a taxpayer’s lender canceled or reduced part of their mortgage balance through a loan modification or “workout,” the taxpayer may be able to exclude that amount from their income. They may also be able to exclude debt discharged as part of the Home Affordable Modification Program, or HAMP. The exclusion may also apply to the amount of debt canceled in a foreclosure.

3. Refinanced Mortgage. The exclusion may apply to amounts canceled on a refinanced mortgage. This applies only if the taxpayer used proceeds from the refinancing to buy, build or substantially improve their main home and only up to the amount of the old mortgage principal just before refinancing. Amounts used for other purposes do not qualify.

4. Other Canceled Debt. Other types of canceled debt such as second homes, rental and business property, credit card debt or car loans do not qualify for this special exclusion. On the other hand, there are other rules that may allow those types of canceled debts to be nontaxable.

5. Form 1099-C. If a lender reduced or canceled at least $600 of a taxpayer’s debt, the taxpayer should receive Form 1099-C, Cancellation of Debt. This form shows the amount of canceled debt and other information.

6. Form 982. If a taxpayer qualifies, report the excluded debt on Form 982, Reduction of Tax Attributes Due to Discharge of Indebtedness. They should file the form with their income tax return.

7. IRS.gov Tool. Taxpayers should use the Interactive Tax Assistant tool — Do I Have Cancellation of Debt Income on My Personal Residence? — on IRS.gov to find out if their canceled mortgage debt is taxable.

8. Exclusion Extended. The law that authorized the exclusion of canceled debt from income was extended through Dec. 31, 2016.

ENTERTAINMENT

A:

Met a guy named Howie who suggested I check out an underground artist who happened to be Mos Def. I found out where he was performing in New York City and I went to check it out, introduced myself and when the opportunity presented itself, I was hired as his tour DJ. What are your top five attributes to success?

Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance.

What kind of changes do you see in the music and radio business now versus when you started?

Lots of changes. Accessibility to music has changed because of music platforms such as SoundCloud, iTunes, Spinrilla, etc. There is a wider range of interest of nationalities and lots of crossover music, which were not as common years ago. There aren’t many boundaries or limitations for the genres of music, which makes it great for all artists to be true artists.

How do you remain relevant?

The five P’s listed above plus promotion and knowledge of what’s hot and trendy. You can’t be relevant without hard work and dedication, as well as being knowledgeable about your craft.

What do you spin on — equipment? Your headphones?

Nothing specific.

DJ Self

By Mary L. Datcher Defender Arts & Entertainment Editor If you’re in the world of hiphop and under 40, at some point in your budding adulthood you’ve experienced hearing DJ Self. The Nigerian-born Brooklyn native has toured with Mos Def, warming up fans around the globe.

He is a fixture on New York radio station Power 105.5 and recently joined the sixth season of VH1’s Love & Hip Hop, along with girlfriend Yorma Hernandez. It’s never a dull moment between the pair, which has increased his visi-

bility among loyal show fans. Self’s clothing line, GWININ, allows him to expand his growing brand into the fashion arena.

With family connections in Chicago, he’s excited to be in town for a special event at the House of Blues on March 18. As the headline DJ, Self will be joining Chicago’s own, DJ Commando and WGCI’s Sean Mac for Society Chicago — a series of parties taking place around the country including New York, Memphis, Cleveland and Las Vegas.

The Chicago Defender had a chance to catch up with DJ Self on what drives him to be one of the leading DJs in the business.

Q:

Self, what is your family background? You grew up in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, but what was your foundation?

Family background is Nigerian. My family lives between Philadelphia and the West Side of Chicago. I have a cousin whose name is “Go-Getter.” she is an upcoming rapper based in Chicago. My foundation is Brooklyn, so I’m a Brooklyn boy at heart.

New York has a great deal of DJs, and the hustle was about mixtapes and getting on the radio back then. What separated you from the rest?

Hustle and drive will always separate me from the rest. I learned about hustling and building drive from my fellow colleagues — DJ Kid Capri and DJ Goldfinger.

I respect all DJs who are out every day and night grinding to make a name for themselves and study the art of music.

How do you create balance for yourself in your personal and professional life?

Creating a balance is very hard personally and professionally, but I’m blessed to have a career in spinning the music I love.

Carolyn Rush Dies At 68, Society of Mannequins Recognizes Best Dressed

By Mary L. Datcher Defender Senior Staff Writer While Black Chicago was in an uproar over last week’s cover story of Chance the Rapper at a mainstream paper across town, house Republicans are drastically dismantling Obamacare. This move would take away health care from 20 million Americans. The changes are real, and I’m surprised that more people in our community aren’t heated about this disastrous move. Wake up, people!

Our newly appointed, U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, made swift moves firing 46 U.S. attorneys held over from the Obama administration. On Monday, U.S. Attorney Zachary Fardon of the Northern District of Illinois steps down, but not without issuing a letter of recommendations for the next prosecutor.

The current DOJ investigation that revealed problems and discord in the Chicago Police Department is a concern for criminal-justice reform advocates, under Sessions’ administration. The former Alabama attorney general has a track record for advocating law enforcement’s actions — good and bad.

Local Politics Cook County Chief Judge Tim Evans signs an order to provide free legal assistance for arrestees in Chicago police custody. As it stands, most people who are arrested only receive a lawyer until their first court appearance. A great deal can occur between being arrested, processing and the bail hearing.

“I want to ensure that constitutional rights are protected from the earliest point of contact with the criminal-justice system,” Evans said. “The concept of ‘justice’ demands that we take this step to strengthen an individual’s rights and the

public’s confidence in the system.”

We see you and we commend this bold move toward reforming steps in the Cook County Court system. Too many Black men and women are locked down without access to fair representation, which leads to tragic circumstances.

The race for the highest office in Illinois is off to a very early start as gubernatorial candidate and businessman Chris Kennedy makes his bid known. On Tuesday, he met with West Side and western suburbs community and business leaders at Columbus Park. A couple of weeks ago, J.B. Pritzker met with Black South Side stakeholders addressing concerns in the current administration. Both men have long-time family investments embedded within the local and national landscape.

Will this be another division in Chicago’s Black community? Will Kennedy have the West Side and Pritzker have the South Side Blacks? This divisive strategy would only give Gov. Bruce Rauner more ammunition in 2018.

will be spinning at the House of Blues Chicago. Chicago favorite DJ, Sean Mac, is also on the bill for this Society of Chicago bash. With a long list of party promoter hosts, including Velvet Lounge owner Kenny Johnson, the young, fly and dope party should be ”off the hinges.”

Across town, the 36th Chicago Music Awards will be recognizing music’s finest at the Stephen M. Bailey Auditorium. This year, the program’s emcees include one of my favorite news broadcasters, Art Norman, and B96’s on-air personality, JNiice.

Pack some snacks, because it’s guaranteed to be a long night of live performances and presentations. Let’s continue to support Chicago talent.

Ladies, let’s rock your best glam at the Society of Mannequins event on Sunday, March 19, at the Tuscany Falls Banquet Hall in Mokena, Ill. The event was formed by the Association of Mannequins in 2000 to award scholarships to African-American students in need and recognize women in the community who serve as outstanding role models and leaders in their fields.

Each year, as the event grows, the organization selects the 10 “best dressed” Black women of Chicago during Women’s History Month. Our late and beloved columnist, Theresa “Teesee” Fambro-Hooks, was a past loyal member and currently the Defender’s Director of Sales and Marketing, Dyanna Knight Lewis, will be honored at this year’s festivities.

On March 15, community activist and journalist TJ Crawford and HBCUX Networks General Manager Clint Evans brought in another year. Owner of Flavor Restaurant, Rochelle Kemp, celebrates on March 16. Managing Partner at True Star Magazine, Joi Mitchell, kicks up her heels on March 18. DJ Maurice Reese turns up the music on March 19, and broadcaster Paul J. Buckner celebrates on March 20.

In Memorial We are saddened at the passing of Mrs.

Carolyn Rush, the wife of Illinois U.S. Rep., Bobby L. Rush. Surrounded by family, Mrs. Rush died at the University of Chicago Hospital early Monday morning at 68 from congestive heart failure.

Born May 27, 1949, in Memphis, Tenn., Carolyn Rush moved to Chicago at an early age. She graduated from Hirsch High School and later graduated with high honors with a Bachelor’s of Arts in organizational leadership from Roosevelt University in Chicago. In addition to her work as a community organizer, precinct captain and political strategist in many campaigns, she was also instrumental in the Civil Rights Movement, working to end discrimination in housing and employment.

Mrs. Rush and her husband, Congressman Rush, have a blended family of seven children (one son is deceased), and 11 grandchildren. The couple were married for 36 years. Funeral arrangements are pending, and there is no further information at this time.

An official statement from Congressman Rush: “I also express my sincerest appreciation to my colleagues in Congress, and to my constituents for understanding why it was so important for me to be with my wife when I also had to be in Washington.

Choosing to be with her until the very end was really no choice for me at all. As her husband, it was my duty and as a man of God it was also my responsibility to be by her side,” Rush reflected. “Carolyn never left my side when I was diagnosed with cancer. She’s the reason I’m still here. I will forever miss my friend.”

Robert ‘Bobby’ Sengstacke The Chicago Defender and Chicago Defender Charities mourn the loss of renowned photographer and former Defender Editor Robert A. Sengstacke — affectionately known as “Bobby.” On March 7, he died at 73 after a long illness.

In celebration of his life and his numerous contributions, the Defender will have special tribute in next week’s publication.

He is survived by his wife, Jacquelyn Sengstacke, and their two children, Domenic and Jasmine, his first wife, Veela Sengstacke-Gonzales, and their children — Myiti, Omhari and Hasani. Their oldest son, Saief, made his transition in 2009.

His daughter-in-law Shantella, his grandchildren, Imani, Malahni and Montrel and a host of loving family members and close friends.

COMMUNITY CALENDAR

Lessons From the Obama Years

Barack Obama

By Dr. Jessie Fields Defender Contributing Writer I, like many Americans, am deeply concerned about our country. I have been practicing medicine in Harlem and active as a political independent for over 20 years. Having supported Barack Obama throughout his presidency, rejoicing in all of his moving speeches, I hoped — perhaps naively — that he would at some point during his presidency break free of partisan politics and speak directly to the American people as an advocate for structural reforms such as open primaries and redistricting reform.

He did not. His effectiveness as a bridge builder was thus diminished. I believe the Obama presidency offers important lessons to all Americans, to the Black community and to those who supported Barack Obama and wanted the promise and vision of his 2008 campaign to be fulfilled.

In February 2007, in his speech in which then-Sen. Barack Obama announced his candidacy for president, speaking to the people who had assembled on that cold day in Springfield, he said, “In the face of despair, you believe there can be hope. In the face of a politics that’s shut you out, that’s told you to settle, that’s divided us for too long, you believe we can be one people, reaching for what’s possible, building that more perfect union.”

People across the political spectrum, including many independents, white Americans, people of color and young voters were drawn to Obama by virtue not just of his soaring rhetoric, but also out of a desire to see real political change and an end to racial and partisan division.

In the 2008 presidential election, independent voters favored Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton. The fact that 33 states held open primaries or caucuses, which allow independents and non-party affiliated voters to vote in the primary, made it possible for Obama to become the Democratic Party nominee and also — with support from independent voters — to win the general election. However, once elected, Obama failed to continue the fight to open up the Democratic Party. In fact he would www.chicagodefender.com

become a Democratic Party insider.

There were some early signs in his first term that President Obama did not understand or could not act on the depth of the crisis of American democracy, the role of the political parties, and of his own party in perpetuating that crisis — and how much he needed the participation of the American people in the endeavor to fulfill the promise of his campaign.

Early Blunders Some tragic errors were made at the beginning of the Obama presidency. One was the decision to consolidate the lists of Obama supporters from his campaign into the Democratic Party. His supporters included many independents, young people and people of color. They were Obama supporters, they were not Democratic Party loyalists.

In fact, it was an alliance of Black and independent voters that powered his ascendancy to the White House. The decision to merge the 2008 Obama campaign supporters into the Democratic Party was a political, not an administrative, decision that collapsed his independence and the independence of his campaign base totally inside the Democratic Party. By the 2012 re-election campaign, Obama was turning down offers to partner with independent voters. In the 2012 election, he lost support among independent voters overall, but he still won a majority of independent voters in enough states to win re-election.

In the 2016 Democratic Primary, independents and young voters fueled Sen. Bernie Sanders’ revolt, and Sanders came close to winning the primary but could not get past the party establishment, its superdelegates and closed primaries. There was also a revolt against top-down control in the Republican Party, expressed through the campaign of Donald Trump. And after a very flawed primary process in which millions of independents, young voters, third-party members and unaffiliated voters were locked out of voting, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump became the party nominees. They were both viewed unfavorably by a majority of the American people.

Of these two choices in the general election, the outsider candidate Donald Trump continued on page 14

Coalition Disappears

What happened to the Obama coalition? Independent voters are now 40 percent of the American electorate. Of the independents, 48 percent voted for Donald Trump, and 41 percent for Hillary Clinton. Over 1 million fewer Black voters went to the polls in 2016 than in 2008 and 2012. By not voting for Hillary Clinton, these Black voters were declaring their independence from the old Democratic Party politics of voting for the lesser of

They will also receive “minute mentoring” sessions from industry professionals, including pilots, engineers, robotics teachers and STEM entrepreneurs Illinois Institute of Technology, Hermann Hall two evils, which became a primary argument for voting for Hillary Clinton.

The question of the meaning of the Obama presidency to America and to the Black community, which supported Obama to the tune of 95 percent in 2008 and 93 percent in 2012, is a subject worthy of whole volumes. Here I would like to simply point out the special significance of the role of a Black leader in the tradition of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in leading Americans across the racial divide.

Obama’s leadership was resonant of King’s legacy; however, King never relied on the Democratic Party or any political party. He relied on the American people.

When he called for Americans of all races to come to Selma, Alabama, they responded and moved the country forward.

Obama, as the first African-American president in U.S. history, has given us a great deal to celebrate. As president, Obama again and again demonstrated brilliance, compassion, elegance and grace. However, despite the sense of hope and possibility that his election inspired, Obama did not succeed at uniting a divided nation.

The partnership between Black and independent voters in the 2008 election of Obama is, I believe, the most hopeful

cational training for adults. It focuses on the connection between art and technology, the power of connecting communities, and engaging and teaching in an inspirational and beautiful environment.

The question is whether and how it can continue. Obama has indicated that he understands the failure to reform our politics and wants to work on these issues now that his presidency is over. Ultimately, we the people have to figure out, if we want to come together, how we are going to do that. Systemic reforms that open up the political process help to remove barriers that keep us apart.
