Students at Crafton Hills College (pictured above) and San Bernardino Valley College organized non-partisan voter registration activities to encourage their peers to participate in the electoral process. By Anthony Victoria
an Bernardino Community College District (SBCCD) officials provided student leaders a boost in their efforts to increase voter registration and participation. The district, which oversees Crafton Hills College and San
Bernardino Valley College, approved a resolution on October 20 to sign a memorandum of understanding with the California Secretary of State’s Office to implement a voter registration project. According to the memorandum, the district will work with State Secretary Alex Padilla’s office to host voter engagement events,
integrate online voter registration with class registration and enrollment, and access to polling places at both campuses for future elections. SBCCD is the first community college district in Riverside and San Bernardino counties to sign Padilla’s California Students Vote

Project agreement. “I give students all the credit,” said Chancellor Bruce Baron. “They are the ones who made the commitment to register new voters. I’m very proud of the students who are being so active with this.” Only 52 percent of eligible youth were registered to vote in the state before the November 2014 election with only 8 percent of eligible youth turning out to vote, according to data from the California Secretary of State’s Office. Crafton Hills student Cindy Omaña believes the key to increasing voter participation among students is helping them feel inclusive. “We want to know if our voices are being heard,” she explained. “Students know what’s going on. The issue is being able to keep students in the conversation.” A $10,000 grant was awarded to each college in September to help launch a civic engagement project
to train student volunteers to register voters and educate their peers on this year’s election using WiFienabled tablets and other nonpartisan material. Student leaders at Crafton Hills College and San Bernardino Valley College registered approximately 120 students to vote by holding forums on state propositions, get-out-the-vote rallies, and working with the Political Science departments to make in-class presentations. “This is a milestone for community colleges,” Aguayo said. “It’s never been done at this level before.” Crafton Hills Student Outreach Volunteer Jordan Mack hopes that their efforts will “flip the millennial vote.” “Talking about the elections will help,” Mack explained. “The millennial generation knows about the issues facing us all. If we could keep these students invigorated with the passion of making change, we will make a difference.”

he Westside’s parade for veterans is coming back, and according to San Bernardino Councilwoman Virginia Marquez this should be the biggest turnout yet. A parade--beginning near 14th Street and ending at La Plaza Park--is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. An official ceremony to honor veterans will begin at 1 p.m. “This is our way of showing appreciation to those who have served,” said Councilwoman Virginia Marquez. “We’re hop-
ing to bring people together to recognize people of the past and present.” This year’s event is slated to be “dynamic” because it’s the first time the event is being celebrated in two of the city’s wards. “This year we’ve decided to bring in Councilwoman [Bessine] Littlefield Richard,” Marquez said. “We wanted to make sure to include the sixth ward.” Suavecitos Car Club President Chris Moreno, who has helped organize Veterans Day car shows and events since the 1970s, believes the annual event at La Plaza Park has helped restore pride to the Westside. “It’s helps residents realize that
there is value in our community-value that has been brought to us by the men and women who have served our country. The youth, who may not know about their sacrifices, now have something to be a part of and have a little something to learn about our country.” This year marks the 16th year the event is being held at La Plaza Park. Veteran Danny Flores held the first event in 2000. Marquez said she’s honored to be carrying on Flores’ tradition. “I’m grateful to be carrying the torch for Danny.” For more information, contact Chris Moreno at (909) 855-9093.

SBVC Football Players Reach Out to Elementary Students

SBVC football players Blake Fisher and Tawon Green read to first grade students at Urbita Elementary School in San Bernardino.
BVC’s football coaches have a tradition: every semester, they take the team on community outreach visits to local schools, where the players read to students and share their experiences as college students. In early October, the team visited Urbita Elementary School, which is just down the street from the college campus. The first graders they visited loved having them there, asking questions about college and what it’s like to be a football player. “I always try to get the community involved and aware,” says
head football coach Jason Vandiver. “We have great young men who sacrifice a lot to get an athletic scholarship.” Whether or not they end up receiving scholarships, the players have definitely made an impact on the local community and their fellow college students. The athletics department’s outreach efforts are growing. “We had members of the women’s basketball team join us just last week,” says Vandiver. “I think it’s important for us to have as much student representation when we reach out to our community.”

Yes on Prop. 57 Supports San Bernardino’s Progress Towards Youth Rehabilitation
D
uring the 2014 school year, San Bernardino County had the second highest number of student suspensions in California with 26,204 students being suspended from school—following Los Angeles County, who had the highest number of student suspensions at 45,487. Zero tolerance policies introduced in the mid-nineties have proven to encourage the use of school discipline methods such as suspensions, expulsions, and arrests. In the recent years, there has been increased attention to the adverse effects of zero tolerance policies (also known as exclusionary discipline policies) as they have been found to negatively impact students’ academic performance, school climate, and life outcomes. Research shows that students who are suspended or expelled are more likely to have academic problems, drop out of school, and enter the juvenile justice system. Slippery slope much? Very much so. This phenomenon is real and has been coined the “School-toPrison Pipeline:” a national trend where children are funneled out of public schools and into the juvenile and criminal justice systems. Unfortunately, the numbers reveal that students of color, students with disabilities, and LGBTQ students, are disproportionately affected by exclusionary discipline policies that exacerbate the school-to-prison pipeline. Since the passing of California’s 2014 Willful Defiance Law,
which places limits on suspending students for minor misbehavior, San Bernardino City Unified School District has followed the national trend towards a more progressive discipline model by implementing Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) with Restorative Justice principles. PBIS reinforces positive behavior and education, and changes the way disciplinary matters are handled. The changes to student discipline policies are huge, as minor infractions such as talking back or misdemeanor behavior will no longer warrant suspension. As San Bernardino continues to make strides to rehabilitate youth in schools, it’s time we consider how we can promote rehabilitative opportunities for youth in the juvenile justice system. With Proposition 57 on the California ballot, there is hope for California’s incarcerated youth. Prop 57—Parole, Sentencing and Court Procedures, if passed, would make changes to sentencing and court procedures for youth and adults. Under Prop 57, judges, rather than prosecutors, would be given the discretion to decide whether or not youth should be tried as juveniles or adults. Currently, prosecutors decide, through a practice called “direct file”, whether to charge youth as young as 14 as adults. When tried in adult court, youth face increased odds of receiving more severe sentencing While some may argue that juveniles who commit more serious offenses, such as rape or murder, deserve to be tried in adult court, it is important to note that youth who haven’t committed serious crimes but have a history of more minor offenses often get tried as adults, too. Rather than placing youth on a path to recidivism, let’s protect our young people and give them an opportunity to be rehabilitated, re enter society, and return home to their community and family. Proposition 57 will give California’s youth a second chance to lead a healthy, successful life.
Sierra Club Endorses Randall Macias Ceniceros for San Bernardino Municipal Water District Division II
This week, the Sierra Club proudly endorsed Randall Macias Ceniceros as its candidate in the race for San Bernardino Municipal Water District Division II. The Sierra Club’s legacy of protecting our water from pollution and our environment for future generations is something Randall Ceniceros is equally committed to. We know that protecting our water and San Bernardino County’s vast natural resources for our children and their children is his top priority. We believe that Randall Ceniceros is the right candidate to address the region’s water crisis. Ceniceros is currently a Trustee on the Colton Joint Unified School District where he was part of a leadership team that secured the region’s first electric bus fleet. In addition, Ceniceros and his colleagues began energy conservation efforts in the school district with SunPower to install solar
panels on carport sun shelters at the district’s 29 sites. The District stands to save $38 million dollars in energy costs due to this effort. Recently, Ceniceros and his team started moving the District’s sites to be more water wise by installing dryscapes and artificial turf. We couldn’t have endorsed a more forward-thinking, environmental champion with such an impressive track record. We look forward to working with Randall Ceniceros in tackling the region’s water issues. Jono Hildner Sierra Club San Gorgonio Chapter Political Chair The Sierra Club is the nation’s largest and oldest grassroots environmental organization with a strong record of mobilizing voters to support its endorsed candidates.

Join the Team…Vote Yes on Measure T
Colton has a rich tradition of youth sports. From soccer, to football, to baseball and softball, our kids thrive when they’re part of a team. This November, Colton residents will have a chance to vote yes on Measure T: The Colton Youth Sports Initiative. Measure T will help raise funds to repair and build new sports facilities for our kids. Measure T will not raise Colton residents’ taxes; instead, it will take revenue raised by visitors who stay at local hotels and motels and use the money to support Colton’s youth sports facilities. It is a common sense
approach that will make sure our leagues have access to better maintained ball fields. This hotel tax will go directly into an account reserved exclusively for our sports facilities. This will guarantee that all of the funds raised under Measure T can only be used to support our kids. Youth sports help our kids learn valuable lessons about teamwork and perseverance. Playing sports also helps our kids stay healthy and build positive attitudes. From the classroom to the ball field, when our kids thrive, the entire community wins! Measure T is supported by the
Colton City Council, school board members, police and fire fighters, and many of the parents and volunteers who lead our youth sports league. Join us this November and become part of the team. Vote yes on Measure T.

Sarah Zamora for District 6
I am disappointed by the conduct of district 6 incumbent Suchil and councilmember Toro this campaign season. To use social media and sensationalized propaganda to attack candidate and former elected Sarah Zamora and her family is shameful. To allow Toro to make malicious and inaccurate statements about them in hopes of garnering support for Suchil and for Suchil to stand behind this conduct is wrong. Our city leaders should be professional and respectful of others as representatives of our city. I have lived in La Loma Hills for 6 years and have never seen or spoken to Suchil until recently when he, along with Toro by his side, questioned my vote. The timing of his recently formed Neighborhood Watch Program is questionable since over the past 3 years, there was increased home invasion burglaries in our neighborhood. Where was his program then? Abandoned lots in our area are filled with
weeds and La Cadena is peppered with litter and broken fences. Why hasn't he addressed that? Note that Mayor DelaRosa is supporting both candidates, not solely incumbent Suchil, which in my eyes is the same as supporting Ms. Zamora more. Also, question how and why Toro is so involved in our district's affairs instead of concerning himself with his own district, which surely has issues to address. To many, this appears nothing more than a unsubstantiated personal vendetta against the Zamora ladies. Suchil and Toro should research the notion of political nepotism and its true meaning. Having family members serve together on a city council is not nepotism. This assertion is more a slap in the face to the voters that will potentially cast their vote for Sarah Zamora. I don't personally know the Zamora family, but they have been visible in my social enclave- sports, recreation,
and similar circles. I can see they are good people who care and are active in our community. The Zamora's have been involved in Colton for decades and our city felt the loss of Mayor David Zamora when he passed in 2011. My vote is for Ms. Sarah Zamora. I appreciate the diversity, independence, and experienced insight she'll bring our district. Besides having earned the respect and endorsement of several notable elects officials and unions in our area, she shares my priories including economic redevelopment and growth, opportunities for our children in recreation, and public safety. Sarah Zamora is the right choice for our district.
It appears we are in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah, with all our promiscuity, drugs and murders. Families are killing one another right and left. We are allowing too much evil to reign. Sodom and Gomorrah were cesspools of iniquity. In our current demise, men and woman have forgotten the FLOOD and still have not learned their lesson. That was a cataclysmic destruction of the races! God rained fire and brimstone on the two cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. Do people not remember the wrath of
God? Are they prepared for the earth’s final doom that will be in a holocaust of fire? II Peter 2:5,6 3:7-10 "When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild. But whoever obeys the law is joyful." Proverbs 29:18 New Translation I am using the historical scriptures from the Bible that address towns that were destroyed; destroyed because of the evil. This is what this presidential election is supposed to be about, regaining hope and civility, not about changing the constitution to please the modern, worldly people.
Ever since God, the creator, was taken out of the equation, America has been slowly going to hell. You can call me crazy, if you wish, but I do know one thing; Armageddon is at our doorstep. You may wish to read Revelations at the END of the Bible for some great insight to this. Please make sure you VOTE NOVEMBER 8th. God Bless America!
Respectfully submitted, Joaquin Juarez

Experience Is The Best Teacher In this year of unprecedented politics, there are those who would tell me how I should think and feel as an African-American. I ask, if the African-American experience is so bad, what have you personally done to alleviate the situation? What is your personal experience with the AfricanAmerican community? I have a few personal experiences I would share. -On a visit to Little Rock, Arkansas, shortly after Bill Clinton was elected president, I personally met with key administrators of his transition team decision-makers, which were AfricanAmerican. African-Americans have been employed in his administrations throughout Bill Clinton’s political career. -President Clinton appointed Rodney Slater U.S. Secretary of Transportation. Rodney is an African-American married to the daughter of my schoolmate, Henry Wilkins III, who attended
all-Black Merrill High School in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. -Hillary Clinton worked with the Children’s Defense Fund (CDF) which was founded by African-American Marion Wright Edelman in 1973. CDF is the leading nonprofit advocacy organization in the United States for children’s rights. A leading coalition is the Black Community Crusade for Children. -In 1968, when Dr. Martin Luther King was assassinated, Hillary Clinton worked with the African-American student organization at Wellesley College to organize a two-day strike. -On October 16, 2016, while visiting the Museum of Black History and Culture at the historically Black AM&N College/University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff, I met an art major graduate who is currently employed as an archivist in the Clinton administration. This young lady is re-
sponsible for preserving artifacts, and making restorations, such as she did on the broken nose of President George Washington’s face. She is employed to also be responsible for archiving memorabilia, such as Hillary Clinton’s wardrobe. I have found African-Americans involved at all levels of the Clinton’s experience. I could go on and on. If my African American experience is as bad as you purport, you have not walked in my shoes, and if you provided no jobs or shoes for my feet, you cannot talk to me, or for me. Sorry, “I can’t hear what you say for seeing what you do”. On Tuesday November 8, I will cast my vote for proven experience. Mildred Dalton Henry, Ph.D.

Words to Think About: October 31 and the Protestant Reformation
O
By G. W. Abersold Ph.D.
ctober 31 is an important date, but it is especially important because of what happened in 1517. Martin Luther, who became the father of the Protestant Reformation, nailed his famous 95 Theses to the Castle Church door in Wittenberg, Germany on October 31, 1517. They formally charged the Pope and Catholic Church leaders’ with the unbiblical practice of selling indulgences. Basically this meant that for money, parishioners would be
granted forgiveness for sins along with assurance of a place in heaven. Luther was born on November 10th in 1483 in Eisleben near present day Berlin, Germany. His parents were Hans and Margarthe Luther, middle class peasant laborers. A miner, he worked hard to give Martin a good education. By the age of 21, Martin held a Master of Arts degree from the University of Erfurt. His father wanted him to be a lawyer, but he experienced a life changing event. On July 2, 1505 when Luther was 22 years old, he was visiting his family in Erfurt when a thunderstorm hit with a flash of lightning that struck the ground near him. Thunder exploded in his eardrums and knocked him flat on the ground. In fear for his life, he cried out, “Help me, St. Ann. I will become a monk.” So he did. Two weeks later he walked into an Augustine monastery to fulfill his promise. Following his schooling he became a theology professor in Wittenberg. This was followed by a couple of years of study in the Vatican at Rome. Then came October 31, 1517. AllSaints Day. Frustrated, unhappy and angry with what he saw, he decided to act. His action started one of the greatest events in the history

of the world. Known as the Protestant Reformation. He was sickened by the corruption in the Church, primarily the selling of indulgences for passes into heaven. Money was the barter for salvation rather than penance. Television, newspapers and other means of communication of news were unheard of. The church doors of churches served as the bulletin boards for announcements in the Middle Ages. So, Martin Luther nailed 95 Theses to the doors of the Castle church in Wittenberg. They consisted of “a compendium of criticism and changes he wanted to see within the Church. This simple act literally changed the direction of human history. Not only in religion but also in the direction of politics, especially the concept of democracy. The present curator of the St. Monastery of Augustine is Carsten Fromm. In a recent article he says, “The Protestant Reformation was the origin of freedom, freedom of speech and freedom of thought.” It is important for all of us to recognize that Luther did not want to split the Catholic Church. He only wanted to weed out its corruption. The desire for change and rebellion had been simmering for centuries throughout much of Europe. Fear

dominated the people. Luther traveled where others were afraid. The church could not tolerate such a rebellion. So, in 1521, Pope Leo X excommunicated him. For Luther’s safety, Frederic III took him to Wartburg Castle for his safety. He was there for 10 months and during that time he translated the New Testament from Greek into German. Later on he also translated the Old Testament into German. In 1525, he married Katharina von Bora, a former Nun, and they had five children. It is common knowledge that Luther loved God first, his wife and family second and eating German sausage and drinking beer third. From 1533 until his death in 1546 Luther served as the Dean of the theology facility at Wittenberg University. The place that Martin Luther has in the pages of recorded history is unquestioned. His statute in front of the doors where he nailed the 95 Theses is merely a weak representation. It was the rippling affect that changed the world. His use of the Guttenberg Press in less than 100 years did that. The era of Martin Luther was relatively uneducated with very few people being able to read or write. But Luther took ad-
vantage of printing to expose the average person of his views. He was the catalyst for making Protestantism a viable option for Christians. Consider John Calvin, the father of Conservative Evangelism. He fathered the Baptists and Reformed traditions. Baptists are the largest Protestant churches in America. John Knox and the Presbyterians were off-shoots from Calvinism. The Pilgrims and Puritans were part of his theological concepts. The strangest challenges to Calvinism were the Arminians, expressed primarily by John Wesley and the Methodists. Consider the fact that the largest Protestant churches in America have their theological roots in the beliefs of either John Calvin or John Wesley. History has declared the Dark Ages ended with the advent of the Protestant Reformation (Martin Luther) and the Gutenberg printing press. It opened doors of education, exploration, freedom of thought and ultimately the United States. Next year on October 31, 2017 will mark the 500 anniversary of Martin Luther’s historic nailing of the 95 Theses to the door. The celebration for it can begin now. Amen. Selah. So be it.

This is the first time they hold a furniture giveaway event in the Inland Empire. Santos believes the partnership with Aspiranet and the Assistance League, which provided the youth with soft goods and other home essentials, “This was something our company wanted to help with,” Santos said. “These kids have [demonstrated] that they want to be successful. We will continue to work with Aspiranet to provide these essentials to great youth.” Hank McKee, Aspiranet’s associate division director, believes his organization helps fill a gap for young people who have struggled to find stability. “These kids have travelled through different schools--falling behind on their education, their life skills, on learning how to cook a meal. When we get them at 18 we start from scratch. We

our former foster youth received a boost in morale last Thursday when they received furniture donations from Ashley Furniture for their new apartments. “It’s crazy that there are people here who appreciate me, who love me, and who have been like family” said former foster youth Latonya Jackson, 19, of Riverside. “It’s amazing.” The young people are part of Aspiranet’s Transitional Housing Placement and Foster Care Program that provides former foster youth ages 18-21 the opportunity to live on their own, while also undergoing a rigorous life skills program to teach them how to find employment, enroll in college, and deal with social situations. In collaboration with Aspiranet, the company donated bed sets, chests of drawers, sofas, and coffee tables. According to Ashley Furniture

help them develop skills to become self sufficient and find their way.” Jackson, who at one point was both a victim and perpetrator of bullying, said she’s excited to work towards becoming a stronger person. She plans to attend college and become an agriculturalist. “I can use everything they teach me every single day,” said Jackson. “I have dealt with many obstacles in my life and I now have the confidence in myself to overcome these and any other barriers that may come my way.” Ethan Hernandez, 18, of San Bernardino said he experienced abuse as a child. Hernandez said Aspiranet has provided him with the confidence needed to attend college to become an engineer. “It’s been an honor to receive help from both [Ashley and Aspiranet],” Hernandez expressed. “I’ve been through a lot in my life. Obstacles come here and there, but all I have to do is overcome them. I’ll be a better person for it.”
