Emmett Till’s Family Speaks Out on Accuser By Mary L. Datcher Defender Senior Staff Writer The Chicago Defender sits down with family members of Emmett Till and Mamie Till-Mobley to discuss the latest revelations by accuser Carolyn Bryant. Bryant had testified that Till, 14, had verbally threatened her during the trial of his murderers – two white men, J.W. Milam and his half-brother, Roy Bryant. Both men had brutally murdered the Chicago teen in August 1955 while he was visiting relatives in Mississippi. According to Vanity Fair in a recently published interview, the author of The Blood of Emmett Till, Timothy Tyson, revealed Carolyn Bryant-Donham had lied about her damaging testimony during the trial. Now, at age 82, the elderly Bryant-Donham is still living and unreachable as Tyson prepares for next week’s release of the book. No one has had the opportunity to interview Till’s accuser but the Duke University research scholar. However, family members of Emmett Till have some choice words about this decades-long loss to their family. Airicka Gordon-Taylor and her moth-

Since her son’s death, Mrs. Mobley became an advocate for social justice and change for the rest of her life, keeping many ”woke” long after her death in 2003. In an exclusive interview with the Chicago Defender, Airicka and her mother, Mrs. Gordon, shared some sentimental thoughts on this latest development. Airicka responds, “I’ve always known about the upcoming book. The truth comes to light. The truth came to light even in Emmett’s passing as a movement was galvanized — the truth came to light. As our millennials are moving and fighting for justice, the truth is coming to light. Until the U.S. Constitution gives us all our rights. Our family has always known the truth,” said Taylor. “She hasn’t said anything that we hav-

en’t always known. I feel what’s she’s doing is to do something to redeem herself. She’s doing something to free her clear conscience. That’s something she need to do, but our family has always been free. She’s never “‘owned” his spirit — he’s been free. So, this is all about her — not about her family.” Since she was an infant, Emmett’s mother, Mrs. Till-Mobley and she shared a close bond growing up. Airicka believes without hesitation how her older cousin would respond to Ms. Bryant’s confession if she were still alive. “Before she died, she forgave Emmett’s murderers, so to forgive his murderers — two men who did such heinous things to her only child — that’s still to me unfathomable. So, she can forgive that. For Carolyn Bryant to come out and say this, I believe Mamie would take this for a ‘grain of salt’ because she knew the truth,” she said. “She probably would’ve told her, ‘thank you for telling me the truth.’ I hope this has helped to clear your conscience to help you deal with how you want to deal with, because on Judgment Day this how you need to deal with God.” continued on page 03

As the family hears about this latest information during the same time as everyone else — it’s not an easy pill to swallow — several decades later. The wound is still very open. Ollie Gordon, Mamie’s first cousin, reveals the many times they reached out to Emmett’s accuser while she was still alive.

What Was the Motive? Ollie Gordon says, “Actually, she has always refused to meet with the family. When I heard it, I wondered ‘why now?’ What is she going to benefit from it at this point in our lives? Is she on her deathbed? Is it for financial gain? What exactly is it that motivated her to come out?”

The symbolism of Emmett’s death has influenced many books searching for answers and as his lynching became a catalyst for the Civil rights movement. But his family believes it runs much deeper than the deep hatred of racism that took the lives of thousands of Blacks, including their 14-year-old cousin, at the time. Over the last five years, Airicka and her family have established the Mamie Till-Mobley Foundation, which she oversees. The legacy of Mamie’s work is the blueprint for groups such as Mothers of Movement, Wear Orange and Moms Against Violence today. “It’s more than about Emmett Till. A good percentage is about him and educating our youth and

what happened and those who never heard about Emmett. Seventy-five percent or more is about Mamie. She did what many mothers are doing today — she was the first one and she put her life on the line. It’s about a women’s movement at this point,” she explains. “We must look at our women and what they’re doing. We just had the Women’s March and they are standing up and fighting for justice. We’re showing the strength that A memorial to Emmett Till. (Photo by Mary L. Datcher) we have and what we’re about and what we’re doing.” The spirit of the mother who refused to have a closed-casket funeral for her only child still rings out today. Fourteen years after her passing, there is so much more to accomplish in fighting racial and gender discrimination. Tyson’s recent book will turn heads and spark more conversations surrounding the death of a Chicago teen who reminds us of so many Black youth today, but to those who suffer the loss of a child, the real heroine is not the now-elderly accuser — it will always be Mamie Till-Mobley. Taylor agrees. “We should look at what Mamie did as some wom- Roy Bryant, one of Emmett’s killers, and wife Carolyn Bryant. en, she stood up and fought earnestly for justice until she died. That’s where the fight came in. Emmett passed, but Mamie stood up and she fought. It’s more than just the story of Emmett Till and what happened to him. We must look at the fight and how she fought, because she was up against a lot when she fought. During a time when it was a lot more against her than it’s against our women today.” For developing news updates, follow: @emmetttilltalks on Twitter.

Time for Democratic Party to Wake Up to the Threat

Lawyers Go on Red Alert as Trump Rolls Back Civil Rights

By Lauren Victoria Burke NNPA Newswire Contributor Everyone appears to have figured out that a dangerous, stupid fascist with no knowledge of how the federal government works is now the president of the United States. Everyone, that is, except members of the Democratic Party. You have to wonder how many dangerously incompetent, racist and blindly ideological decisions the executive branch has to make before the Democrats in the U.S. Congress, who are supposedly in the opposition party, wake up. What is the strategy? What is the plan? President Donald Trump’s careless staff couldn’t even spell the name of the prime minister of the United Kingdom correctly on a press release. What makes anyone think they’ll be more detailed on other initiatives they plan such as an “investigation of voting fraud” or the selection of the next U.S. Supreme Court justice? Be certain to take note of the Democrats who vote in favor of Trump’s cabinet nominees for Treasury, Education, Labor and Health and Human Services. If Democrats support Steve Mnuchin, Betsy DeVos, Andrew Puzder and Rep. Tom Price, there is no resistance movement in the Democratic Party in Congress. Senate Democrats have unified against exactly zero of Trump’s cabinet nominees. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who is allegedly a progressive leader, voted in favor of Dr. Ben Carson to lead a department he has no qualifications to run. Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), who has great Instagram posts of food, voted with Republicans to raise prescription drug prices. Senators who have no re-election fears whatsoever in 2018 are lying down and showing no signs of resisting Trump when the easiest show of resistance is a simple “thumbs down” on the Senate floor. Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), who took over as Democratic leader from retired Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.), so far has decided to vote in favor of almost all of Trump’s nominees. What makes this even more confusing is that the messaging of Democratic leaders is the opposite of the action. The Democratic Party is at its lowest point in four decades in terms of seats held in the U.S. House of Representatives, governors’ houses and seats in state legislatures. With Trump’s arrival and no strategy to be seen, there has never been a better argument for younger and newer leadership. The contest between Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) and former Labor Secretary Tom Perez for Democratic National Committee chair will be a crucial benchmark for the party.

Worldwide Demonstrations Over a million people took to the streets to participate in marches around the world the day after Trump’s inauguration, which drew far lower numbers than President Obama’s historic inauguration in 2009. There were protests in the streets of Washington on inauguration day. Thousands figured out there needed to be resistance to Trump before he took office, but Democrats standing on the floor of the U.S. Senate and House remain asleep. Last weekend, Trump signed an executive order that blocked entry of all refugees to the U.S. for 120 days and barred Syrian refugees from entering the U.S. indefinitely. The order also blocked entry to anyone from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen — all Muslim majority countries. After confusion and protest at several major airports across the U.S., federal Judge Ann Donnelly granted a temporary stay so those in tran-

On the evening on Jan. 28, after a day of learning how airheaded and careless the Trump administration conducts itself, it was learned that Trump had installed his racist, anti-Semitic political adviser Steve Bannon as a member of the National Security Council (NSC). The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, four-star Marine Gen. Joseph Dunford, was removed from the NSC. This happened a day after the Trump White House released a Holocaust Remembrance Day statement that omitted the words “Jewish” or “Jews” from it and avoided mentioning that one of the worst mass murders in history happened because of the faith of the victims. Then Trump officials doubled down on Jan. 28, saying that not mentioning Jewish people was intentional because “others were killed too.” On the day of Barack Obama’s first inauguration on Jan. 20, 2009, top Republicans met for dinner to discuss strategy against his agenda. That strategy was eight years of obstruction against Obama’s agenda, and it worked. Whether Democrats in the Senate and House like it or not, they are the first line of defense against the Trump Administration. The careless refugee executive order was issued on Holocaust Remembrance Day. Trump will select a Supreme Court nominee this week. He will go after voting rights. Have Democrats seen enough yet? If so, they need to stop crying over their election loss and start playing better defense. Lauren Victoria Burke is a political analyst who speaks on politics and African-American leadership.

President Donald Trump began his first week by attempting to roll back the civil rights gains that occurred under his predecessor, President Barack Obama. Hours after Trump was sworn in as president, the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice undertook actions that signaled a major shift in civil rights enforcement, particularly work on voting rights and policing reform. “The actions taken so quickly are unprecedented,” said Joe Rich, the co-director of the Fair Housing and Community Development Project at the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. Rich is also a former attorney working in the Civil Rights Division at the U.S. Department of Justice. The Lawyers’ Committee held a conference call on Jan. 24 with the press on the current state of play in civil rights policy as the Trump Administration begins. “We are concerned about the statements of President Trump, which are an invitation for voter-suppression tactics to be put on the books,” said Kristen Clarke, the president of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. Civil rights groups are reeling from the number of moves the new administration has made. Despite the situation, some hope was renewed by the massive and historic turnout of the Women’s March on Jan. 21, the day after Trump’s inauguration. In addition, the Lawyers’ Committee says, “The names of new leadership at the Justice Department have been announced and include individuals with track records of fighting against civil rights in the areas of voting.”

Troubling Appointments

Preliminary changes in the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division are occurring, while the nomination of Sen. Jeff Sessions to serve as attorney general is pending. The Senate is scheduled to vote on his nomination this week, even as some civil rights groups call for more hearings in the wake of the Trump Administration’s travel ban on seven majority Muslim countries. Recently, the Trump Administration announced that Jones Day lawyer John Gore would head the Civil Rights Division. “Gore in recent years has been opposed to civil rights in a number of matters,” Clarke pointed out on the Jan. 24 conference call. “He has worked on the opposite side in matters involving redistricting.” Borrowing a phrase from Martin Luther King Jr., Clarke added: “Justice delayed is justice denied for communities who have long been waiting for relief on these matters.” Clarke said that Sessions has used vote fraud as a tool to chill Black voting. “We are also deeply concerned about the hostility he has had against consent decrees,” said Clarke. “Mr. Sessions has expressed the view that consent decrees are an abuse of federal authority.” Clarke pointed out that the recent consent decree on the Baltimore Police Department was delayed by the Trump Justice Department.

Superintendent Johnson Recovers After Becoming Lightheaded He Was Announcing New Tools to Help Protect High-Violence Communities On Friday, in the middle of announcing the latest piece of Chicago’s smart-policing strategy — new predictive technology and analytical tools to support police in preventing, combating and responding to violent crime on the south and west sides — Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson became lightheaded. He was immediately guided to a chair by Mayor Rahm Emanuel and others. The importance of the information was overshadowed by Johnson’s medical scare. The following day it was revealed at a press conference that for the past 32 years he’s lived with a kidney condition. He is awaiting a kidney transplant. Amid the concern from colleagues and community leaders, the 7th (Englewood) and 11th (Harrison) police districts – which were responsible for over a third of the increase in homicides for 2016 – station-based Strategic Decision Support Centers, district-wide ShotSpotter gunshot detection systems, POD crime cameras and mobile phone technology have been launched, aimed at reducing violence. “We are going to ensure our police officers have the best tools, technology and training to do their jobs effectively,” said Mayor Emanuel. “Using state-of-the-art technology, our police department can better predict where officers should be deployed and better fight gun violence.” The implementation of this technology builds upon CPD’s 2017 crime strategy of targeted, data-driven enforcement to build a culture of accountability among violent offenders. “In order to reduce violence in Chicago, we must have a strategy that utilizes data to focus on the right people, at the right place, at the right time,” said Superintendent Johnson. “The implementation of this technology will allow us to respond to incidents in less time, make strategic deployment decisions that are based upon a combination of historical crime data and ever-changing district intelligence, and put all of that information in the hands of officers in the field through a mobile phone. Those powerful tools will help us reduce crime in our most challenging districts.” This includes the following technologies:

ShotSpotter Gunshot Detection and POD Crime Cameras Expansion The city has completed the expansion of the ShotSpotter gunshot detection system and POD crime cameras. ShotSpotter now covers the entire 7th and 11th police districts on the city’s south and west sides – a total geography of 13.5 square miles. The POD crime camera footprint was increased by 25 percent in the two districts to allow for better integration between the two technologies. ShotSpotter is a sophisticated system that uses electronic monitoring to detect www.chicagodefender.com

Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson

ShotSpotter is a sophisticated system that uses electronic monitoring to detect gunshots. gunshots. It detects the fullest range of gunfire, collects data that helps CPD define the scope of illegal gunfire, and with this expansion now covers exponentially more geographic area. On average, the technology gives police a five-minute lead on incidents of gun violence when compared to traditional 911 calls. The real-time monitoring also serves as a “force multiplier,” because it provides critical information for better, more timely resource allocation.

officers are prepared with the information necessary to plan their patrol deployment or respond to a call. The new center will be staffed with a district Intelligence officer who can coordinate the information directly with patrol units in the field, as well as a civilian University of Chicago data analyst who will work to ensure the software is being utilized and that data is being collected effectively.

Strategic Decision Support Centers

CPD will also issue mobile phones equipped with ShotSpotter notification to every beat officer who responds to a service call in the 7th and 11th districts. These devices, funded by a grant from the Chicago Police Foundation, will give officers real-time access to district intelligence information and gunshot detection notifications to police officers in the field. This mobile technology will allow for smarter, data-driven patrols and significantly decreased response times to potential service calls.

Strategic Decision Support Centers (SDSC), installed in the 7th and 11th police districts, are district-based intelligence centers that utilize existing data sources within CPD, such as offender criminal history databases and past crime data. The technology also integrates with the now district-wide ShotSpotter gunshot detection in those police districts. The new SDSC places all this information into a single, usable platform that will ensure district command staff and

Harvey Mayor Rips Chicago Over Water Rates A statement released by Harvey Mayor Eric Kellogg’s office said it will make a public appeal to the federal government to intervene and create guidelines that place regulations on major cities such as Chicago from price-gouging water rates on low-income communities. Since elected in 2011, the Emanuel Administration has increased water rates by over 100 percent. “I want the general public to understand that the City of Chicago supplies water to numerous communities throughout Cook County. Over the course of my 14 years as mayor, the City of Chicago has increased water rates to the tune of nearly 150 percent. For the bulk of my tenure, I’ve never passed that increase on to our residents. America experienced its worst economic recession from 2000 to 2008. Towns such as Harvey were buried deep within that recession,” says Mayor Kellogg Kellogg adds, “However, those recession years created a deficit with the City of Chicago which our city has met head on. In fact, the city of Harvey has paid over $32 million back to the City of Chicago over the past 26 months. We simply wanted to renegotiate the payback agreement to the City of Chicago to ease the burden on our general fund.” The statement continues to say, “The City of Chicago was less than honest in releasing to the Chicago Tribune purchases of jewelry and other luxury items against the Harvey Municipal Bank account. However, the Emanuel Administration received official bank documents from the Harvey comptroller that detailed the suspicious items as acts of fraud against the account by outside hackers. Fifth Third Bank acknowledged that the said transactions were indeed fraudulent and immediately reimbursed the monies back into the Harvey municipal account. However, the City of Chicago chose to defame Mayor Kellogg and the comptroller by not releasing the official documents to the media to offset the allegations.” The city of Harvey says it has requested “numerous times of state officials in Springfield to regulate the continuity of water rate increases which Chicago places upon non-affluent towns without notice or consideration” of the local economy of those same communities. Chicago raises its water rates in a “blank check” fashion and with unregulated continuity, the statement said.

Changing the Narrative By Carl D. West Defender Guest Columnist

Gina B.

How Do You Work With A Recruiter? You Don’t By Gina B. Defender Contributing Writer People tend to have a love-hate relationship with recruiters. They love us in theory because we’re seen as the gatekeepers of new opportunities. Yet, they hate us in practice because they feel that we don’t always return calls, we’re flaky, and we often disappear without providing feedback. If I’m being honest, which I tend to be (to a fault), I can agree with all of those points. However, most of those who complain don’t truly understand the business. I get a lot of random calls and email from job seekers. They know that I’m an executive recruiter, and they want to “work with me” on their next role. I try to do my best to be helpful, time permitting, but I always have to explain that recruiters don’t really work with job seekers. As the world of recruiters seems to be a mystery to many, here are the top 5 things you need to know about recruiters. 1. We are not guns for hire by job seekers. Individuals can’t afford to hire us. Our clients are corporations who enlist us to find the right candidates for their open positions. We work with candidates to the extent they are a good fit for whatever role we’re recruiting at the moment. For example, if you’re an amazing CFO candidate, I’ll keep you in mind, but I won’t be helpful unless I’ve been retained to recruit a CFO position. 2. All recruiters are not created equally. Most of us specialize in industries or levels. Knowing a recruiter does not mean that we can automatically be helpful. If you meet a recruiter, it’s best to inquire about his or her specialty to determine if she or he is the appropriate resource. If you’re in marketing, approaching a recruiter who typically places financial officers makes as much sense as going to a podiawww.chicagodefender.com

trist for heart palpitations. 3. We prefer not to take courtesy meetings. Sure, there are moments when we do professional favors and meet with people who want our opinions on their career moves. The trouble is that we don’t have a lot of time. Most of us carry a heavy client load, and we have a short time to contact as many people as possible. We typically review 50 plus resumes/profiles each day. We’re not trying to be rude, but we don’t have hours to spend with people who can’t be candidates at the moment. 4. We are not trying to blow you off. If you’ve interviewed with one of our clients and we don’t provide immediate feedback, it’s usually because we don’t have information. Our clients occasionally fall off the grid for weeks at a time without giving meaningful feedback that we can pass along to you. Yes, it sucks; but it happens. 5. We have long memories. I might not have something that fits your background today, but I’m keeping you in mind. If I’ve met you previously and thought you were a great candidate, you might hear from me in six months, or you might hear from me in two years, depending. Of course, the flipside is that we also remember candidates who perform negatively in interviews or stalk us. If you’re interested in getting the attention of a recruiter, your best bet is to make sure that we can find you. Research the search firms that specialize in your industry, and make sure that an updated resume is in their corporate databases. Many recruiting firms have websites where candidates can register themselves. Additionally, I can’t stress enough how important it is to have an updated LinkedIn profile. If you are job-seeking, I wish you the best of luck. I answer most questions at loversandlivelihoods@ gmail.com. But please don’t send me your resume.

First, let me mention that I was sitting at home last Friday night — best place I could’ve been. One of my favorite talk programs (Charlie Rose) came on and he was interviewing Bill Gates and Warren Buffett. It was informative and very powerful. One of the questions they both answered was in regards to the role of government. They each responded that it’s the government’s job, along with elected officials, to ensure that the playing field is leveled for all Americans. They stated that government must create fair and progressive policies to make sure that the wealth-to-poor gap shrinks. Presently it’s getting larger, and that’s not good for the country. They also indi- Carl D. West cated that good and effective politicians should be executing measures that guarantee equality, especially for the working and middle class. Because if government fails to initiate policy, the public marketplace that creates wealth will continue leaving people far behind. That’s the problem they both see in this country today. They also discussed their wealth. Just for the record, Gates is the richest man in the world, with Buffett coming in at No. 2. They amassed their wealth, like so many others, in a free capitalistic society. In their minds, anyone who’s willing to work extremely hard can build something for themselves. Unfortunately, if you’re below the curve, and you can’t understand that you have to be totally committed to excel and be above average if you want to establish financial stability for your family, then you’ve failed yourself. Buffett admitted that if you’re 10 percent below average, you most likely will never obtain real prosperity. You’ve not figured out how to move the needle of your life. First you have to recognize your current condition, then mentally correct it. It all starts with a thought. How do you see your quality of life in the future? Do you want to provide a better means for your children? Buffett indicated that the world is going to get richer. America, even with Donald Trump as president, will continue to prosper, enormous wealth will be accumulated and more millionaires and billionaires will be created. These things will happen regardless of the many distractions coming from Trump’s policies and tweets. Black America must script their own narrative. Blacks cannot allow the loud cries of violence to detract us. Black people are not a violent race. But from nightly news telecasts, the image of Black men in compromising positions are scripting an unflattering picture of all Black people. Unless you’re bold and selfish enough to scream to the crowd within your corporate community that you’re not “one of them,” then the collective Black will be grouped.

Stereotypes From Media Mainstream media has delivered an awful image. The question is, how do we combat that “around the way” portrayal that continues to blast across television screens every day? What can Black America do to stop people from around the world from having this image of Black people being as something that we’re not? Collectively, Black people need to openly defend the horrible pictures that highlight the worst instead of the best. Instead of boycotting Trump’s ignorance, Blacks should be addressing the media’s appetite for negative Black images. Blacks must object to the media’s inaccurate and demeaning snapshot of Black life. And when Buffett and Gates referenced the below-average class, it was clear, without them stating the obvious, that Black people were at the center of their heartfelt exchange with host Charlie Rose. Gates expressed that community’s failed political leadership is at the heart of social and financial instability in most urban and rural environments. Buffett mentioned that the below-average class and the misunderstood must define themselves. And it must be a serious effort that money can’t buy. But generating wealth will help the narrative.

Q&A: Deborah Cox Talks About Career and ‘Bodyguard’ Role By Mary L. Datcher Defender Arts & Entertainment Editor Tell me, how did “The Bodyguard” transition into a Broadway show? Both the movie and this were completely different entities that came along in a real sort of serendipitous way. I got a call from the music supervisor, they were looking for someone to do the music. He had been familiar with my voice and what I had done before. He suggested that I would be a good fit. So, little did he know that Angela [Bassett] and I were friends. Angela told him that we’re friends and let’s get her on the phone. They called me and we literally talked about the film — they knew they had a short timeline to do the reprise. It worked out in my schedule. Two weeks later, I was on a plane to L.A. to Miami straight to the studio to cut the five songs they needed for the film. Everything came together. Later, that year, I knew that there was a production of this show taking place in London — six years ago. I found out later that year, there were going to bring it here to the U.S. They wanted to know if I was interested by the producers here. I said, ‘Sure, let me check out the script’ to make sure I wanted to get into. Not everything translates well from film to stage. Once I read the script, I said, ‘Wow, I liked the script.’ I like how the storytelling is. I realized that there were a lot more songs in the show. That was a factor as well — just making sure the songs weren’t just blown in there but also a part of telling the story. Thankfully, they did and I decided to come on board. Your voice has always been a leading R&B signature sound since you’ve come out on the scene. The song “Nobody’s Supposed to Be Here” in 1998 — you were compared to Whitney Houston. You were on Arista Records, and Clive Davis is known for his love for female vocalists — especially female Black vocalists. How did you come about in knowing Clive Davis and nailing the deal? I’ve been on the road singing background and was sort of the session girl — the one that producers and songwriters would call for sessions. I was also working on my own demo. Me and my boyfriend, which is now my husband, we traveled to L.A. to meet with Clive Davis and he loved the songs and the demo. One of the songs was “Where do we go from here?” and he was very supportive and wanted to sign me to the label. That’s how it happened. So, I found myself three months later, moving to LA. He would talk about producers he wanted me to work with — Babyface, Dallas Austin, Diane Warren — he put me with the ”best of the best.” We put that first album together. We had three top 3 hits on the Billboard charts. I’ve had a lot of great success with Clive and thank him for his support. He’s seen me on Broadway and told me ‘Deborah, you’re unique and you could do both.’ So, he was encouraging www.chicagodefender.com

We’re working with the Starlight Foundation and bringing awareness -- what they do with terminally-ill children, helping them build play areas within their hospital. I’m looking forward to doing this because it’s an amazing platform to do just that, to reach out. What is your favorite thing to do on your personal time in Chicago? My favorite thing is to explore the restaurants. If I get a chance to see some shows I haven’t seen in N.Y., then I’ll do that as well. The culture and vibe — Chicago is amazing.

Q&A With Nzingha Stewart: Changing the Face of Filmmaking By Mary L. Datcher Defender Arts & Entertainment Editor NAACP award-winning director Nzingha Stewart recently debuted her second made-for-television movie, Love By the Tenth Date, on the Lifetime Network featuring Kelly Rowland, Meagan Goode, Kellee Stewart and Keri Hilson. Her repertoire of works speaks for itself, as she keeps a busy schedule directing new episodes of Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, How to Get Away With Murder and The Catch. How long did it take to develop the concept of “Love By the Tenth Date” to the production of the film? Like everything in Hollywood, it goes in spurts. It sounds like I’ve been working on it forever, but I would start to write it as a half-hour pilot. It took me maybe a month and half to write it as a half-hour. Since nothing happened for a little while, I did some other projects. What was your experience with Lifetime directing the new movie? With Lifetime, we did With

This Ring with Jill Scott and Regina Hall. It went well for them, so they asked if we had anything else, and I said I have this ‘half-hour thing.’ They said the best format for them right now is a two-hour movie. It took another three months to come up with how do I make this a movie from a half-hour comedy — creating characters and storylines to keep it going for that long and to make it better than it was. Throughout the process, it was probably a year of prep, casting — not consistently because I was shooting television shows in between, but we’ll cast somebody, wait a little while awaiting Lifetime’s approval. We’ll rewrite some things and wait a little while. In Hollywood, you just learn to keep a lot of different things in the fire until everything comes to fruition. It takes patience. Luckily I kept myself busy directing a lot of television shows. What was your inspiration for these characters in the film? Was it intended for them to find love by the tenth date? It was an arbitrary number that I just made up. If you spend 10 dates with somebody, you’re in a relationship. I think it probably subconsciously came from me and a cou-

Nzingha Stewart

ple of girlfriends who felt at times when you go on three dates with a guy and they’re great, then it’s ‘iffy.’ It kind of falls apart or you go on five dates with a guy and they’re great but the phone calls start to slow down. What’s that magic formula to stop when everything’s great, then it fizzles and disappears and you don’t know why? We’ve seen Lifetime cover various faucets of programming — is this show and others centered around characters of color, a way of going beyond the general market of viewers? I don’t think it takes a genius to see when these Black shows are made, they do well. There is an audience and there’s a hunger

and our stories are represented. Whether it’s a souvenir series like Luke Cage or a drama such as How to Get Away With Murder, we want to see ourselves on TV, we want to see ourselves represented. They just let a filmmaker write a movie that’s an original and take a risk, whereas big Hollywood is more reluctant to do. Your background has been connected to directing some of our more favorite music videos. We see the same trail that young filmmakers take to transition into films. What has been your way to accomplishing this goal? Directing music videos is probably the very best way that I personally feel I could’ve gotten into. Everybody has the thing that they’re good at — some people start as extras. Some people start out as writers and the words are important. For me, coming from music videos, it’s so important to master certain things visually so that the audience stays interested — understanding the value of wardrobe, lighting and interesting camera angles. The role of women of color is growing in Hollywood. We see Shonda Rhimes and OWN giving Ava DuVernay power to bring in more women behind the scenes.

What has been your experience as a Black female filmmaker? What’s sometimes asked of us as African-American women to support films, they also should support us. It is extremely important. I have firsthand experience in knowing that all I need is a chance. Just get me into the room, I know how to do the work. So often, access is a problem. How do you create balance for yourself to make sure your sanity isn’t compromised? Sometimes I can’t. I just did a long vacation in Morocco, but that was the one vacation out of the year. I’m starting to rely on help more — hiring assistants, getting people to help me with the dayto-day things — to have time to get dry cleaning or grocery shopping because I’m on deadline. I’ll be up writing for 19 hours. The people who are my true heroes, they don’t have a lot of balanced lives. They like what they do so it’s OK to do it often. You look at certain filmmakers like Martin Scorsese, who is 80-something. He’s always working on his next film — always taking meetings, reading and prepping, but he loves what he does so the balance comes from that.

Does Meat Cause Colon Cancer?

By Suzanne Dixon MPH, RD Verywell.com

The story on meat and colon cancer can seem very confusing. One minute you hear a news report saying that meat causes colon cancer, the next you may hear that meat is fine. But if we consider the dozens of studies on this topic, a “big picture” emerges: Eating meat is linked with colon cancer risk, but what kind, how much, and how the meat is prepared are important parts of the story. Type of Meat and Colon Cancer Risk Different types of meat appear to have different effects on the colon. Some types of meat cause more damage, damage that can lead to cancer development, to the cells in the colon than other types of meat. And when it comes to colon cancer risk, fresh is best. This means that in terms of colon cancer risk, freshly prepared chicken, other poultry, fish, lean beef, and pork are “safer” than processed meats. Processed means smoked, cured, and salted meats, such as hot dogs, sausages, salami, bologna, bratwurst, bacon, salt pork, cold cuts and lunch meat, ham, pastrami, pepperoni, smoked fish, corned beef, and jerky. It turns out that when processed, cancer-causing (carcinogenic) chemicals are created in meat. These chemicals, when eaten, increase colon cancer risk.

How meat is prepared and cooked also has an impact on how much the meat increases colon cancer risk. Meat Preparation, Cooking and Colon Cancer Risk How meat is prepared and cooked also has an impact on how much the meat increases colon cancer risk. The higher the temperature at which the meat is cooked, and the more well-done the meat is, the more likely it is to increase colon cancer risk. Just as with processing of meat, cooking meat at high temperatures until very well-done creates carcinogens (cancer-causing compounds). More well-done meat contains higher levels of carcinogens, called heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) than less well-done meat. HAAs and PAHs are formed when the protein and/or fat in the meat gets very hot. Think of the black, char-grilled exterior that a piece of grilled meat can have. This is a source of carcinogens, the chemicals that can increase colon cancer risk. How Much Meat Is Too Much? To put the “how much” question about meat and colon cancer risk into perspective, keep in mind: When studying diet and colon cancer,

12 February 01 - 07, 2017 • THE CHICAGO DEFENDER

health experts have found that people regularly eating the most red meat have up to 50 percent greater colon cancer risk compared with people eating the least red meat. Eating more than 3-5 ounces of meat per day significantly increases the risk of death from any cause, including death due to colon cancer, other cancers and heart disease. Eating more than an ounce and a half of processed meat per day, such as hot dogs and lunch meat, significantly increases the risk of death due to colon cancer, other cancers and heart disease. A 3-ounce serving of meat is about the size of a deck of cards. Simply eating a roast beef sandwich for lunch and a burger or hot dog for dinner will put you over the daily limit for meat intake that research tells us will increase your risk of colon cancer, other cancers, heart disease and death. Meat in Moderation and Cooked Properly If you enjoy meat, but want to keep your risk for colon cancer in check: •Focus on Quality, Not Quantity. You don’t need to skip meat altogether, as long as the rest of your diet is based

around healthy, cancer-fighting foods such as vegetables, fruit, whole grains, legumes (beans and peas), nuts, and seeds. Enjoy good-quality, fresh meat in 3-ounce servings, 3-4 times per week. •Cook Slow & Low. Even if two pieces of meat are cooked to the same “level of done-ness,” the one that was cooked at a lower temperature for longer will contain fewer carcinogenic (cancer-causing) compounds than meat that is cooked very hot and fast. •Raise the Flavor With Spices and Herbs. Marinate your meat in mixtures that contain spices and herbs such as rosemary, thyme, oregano, basil, fennel, or anything you enjoy. Believe it or not, marinating meat in spice and herb mixtures actually reduces the amount of carcinogens that are formed during cooking. •Use the Right Tools. When grilling, use tongs to flip the meat rather than a fork. Piercing the meat causes fat and juices to drip onto the coals. This, in turn, causes the formation of carcinogens that coat the meat when smoke rises back up from the grill. •Cook With Plants. You can heat up vegetables, fruit, or any other plant-based food as hot as you want. This does not create the hazardous compounds that are formed when meat is cooked. Try kabobs with plenty of vegetables on them. As a final note, if you’re looking for another reason to improve your meaty diet, consider the environment. By eating less meat, you’ll improve the health of the planet too! www.chicagodefender.com

FINANCE

Learn Ways to Stay Ahead of the Competition By Sakira Jackson Defender Contributing Writer Today we’ll talk about the last three areas you can work on to maximize your current resources. They are: •An offer they can’t refuse •Would you like fries with that? •Stay away from the edge of the cliff

An Offer They Can’t Refuse

Choosing a Tax Preparer Is a Key Step By Constant W. Watson III Defender Contributing Writer Taxpayers should choose their tax return preparer wisely – with good reason. Taxpayers are responsible for all the information on their income tax return. That’s true no matter who prepares the return. Here are some IRS tax tips to keep in mind: 1. Check the preparer’s qualifications. Use the IRS Directory of Federal Tax Return Preparers with Credential and Select Qualifications. This tool helps taxpayers find a tax return preparer with the qualifications they prefer. The directory is a searchable and sortable listing of preparers with credentials of filing season qualifications. It includes the name, city, state and Zip code. Attorneys, CPAs and enrolled agents can represent any client before the IRS in any situation. Annual Filing Season Program participants may represent clients in more limited situations. Non-credentialed preparers who do not participate in the Annual FilingSeason Program may only represent clients before the IRS on returns they prepared and signed on or before Dec. 31, 2015. 2. Ask about service fees. Avoid preparers who base their fee on a percentage of your refund or those who boast bigger refunds than their competition. When inquiring about a preparer’s services and fees, don’t give them tax documents, Social Security numbers and other information. Some preparers have improperly used this www.chicagodefender.com

Taxpayers should keep copies of their tax records for at least 3 years. . . . You may have to keep your records longer. information to file returns without the taxpayer’s permission. 3. Ask to e-file. Taxpayers should make sure their preparer offers IRS e-file. Paid preparers who do taxes for more than 10 clients generally must file electronically. The IRS has safely processed billions of e-filed tax returns. 4. Make sure the preparer is available. Taxpayers may want to contact their preparer after this year’s April 18 due date. Avoid fly-by-night preparers. 5. Provide records and receipts. Good preparers will ask to see a taxpayer’s records and receipts. They’ll ask questions to figure the total income, tax deductions, credits, etc. Taxpayers should not use a preparer who will e-file their return using their last pay stub instead of a Form W-2. This is against IRS e-file rules. 6. Never sign a blank return. Do not use a tax preparer who asks a taxpayer to sign a blank tax form. 7. Review Before Signing. Before you sign a tax return, review it. Ask questions if something is not clear. Taxpayers should feel comfortable with the accuracy of their return be-

fore they sign it. They should also make sure that their refund goes directly to them – not to the preparer’s bank account. Review the routing and bank account number on the completed return. 8. Ensure preparer signs and includes their PTIN. All paid tax preparers must have a Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN). By law, paid preparers must sign returns and include their PTIN. 9. Report abusive tax preparers to the IRS. Most tax return preparers are honest and provide great service to their clients. However, some preparers are dishonest. Report abusive tax preparers and suspected tax fraud to the IRS. 10. Taxpayers should keep a copy of their tax returns. Taxpayers should keep copies of their tax records for at least 3 years. Depending on the type of taxes and your situation, you may have to keep your records longer. For more details, read “How Long Should I Keep Records” on www.irs.gov. Constant W.

He is only one of six certified tax resolution specialists in the State of Illinois who are certified by The American Society of Tax Problem Solvers.

The secret to success is to Dr. Sakira Jackson stay ahead of your competitors -- maintain the competitive edge. To do that you need to make it easier for your customers/clients to say “yes” rather than “no.” You do this by eliminating all the psychological, financial, physical, emotional and other roadblocks they may have. You can take the risks for them by offering warranties and guarantees that make the customer feel more confident in you, your business and your products/services. You also must be serious about your offer and follow through if a situation does arise. The quickest way to the bottom is to play games or take back a warranty or guarantee.

Would You Like Fries With That?

It’s the oldest trick in the book. I mean, really, how many times a week do you fall for it? Every time you sell a product or service, you need to offer an add-on, upgrade or back-product to go with it. These products must be complimentary to the original product being purchased and must create a higher perceived value.

Avoid the Edge of the Cliff

Continuing to test and measure your systems, products, marketing methods and all other aspects of your business allow you to see problems before they happen and therefore avoid falling off the edge of the cliff. Here are a few specific areas you can test for potential improvements: •Marketing •Sales Copy •Customer Service •Sales Letters •Sales Presentations •Employee-Customer Interaction Through testing these different areas, you will find products/services where you can raise the price, maybe others where you can lower the price or offer that product as an incentive item, and find many other areas for improvement that will better use your current resources.
