“I try to be involved with my kids’ schooling,” said Rosie Galvez, whose children attend Werner Elementary, Rialto Middle School and Eisenhower High. “This is just one of the ways to get involved, for my kids to see that I care about their education, and that I’m interested in what they do.”

he Rialto community converged at Rialto City Park on Saturday for the first Breast Cancer Awareness Festival in the Park, with Mayor Deborah Robertson and Mayor Pro Tem Ed Scott in attendance. For Robertson the event was especially poignant having lost a dear and close family friend to breast cancer this year - Niya Sanchez was only 26 years old and left behind three young boys. “I’m dedicating this to Niya, to keep her legacy alive in Rialto through other efforts we have planned,” Robertson shared. In addition to providing valuable resources to the community, the festival, spearheaded by Joselyn Earls of Fighting for the Tatas, also recognizes Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) Day, designated Oct. 3, by a California Concurrent Resolution introduced by Senator Connie Leyva.

key to student academic success. David identified three components that must work in concert for successful education: student, parent/guardian and the school. According to RUSD Superintendent Dr. Cuauhtémoc Avila the message of the Summit has morphed over the years to become more focused on parents/guardians in providing the tools and resources that will support and enable them to be more effective parent leaders in education.

“The keynotes, tools, information and the resources we provide will make a difference in taking the next step in helping their child become more successful,” Avila explained. “They come away from the Summit with something tangible.” Workshops, presented in both English and Spanish, ranged from college preparedness, positive behavior and school safety, how to remain engaged in a child’s education, literacy and the basics of special education. “We take a multi-prong approach to keep parents engaged,” concluded RUSD Board of Edu-

cation Member Dina Walker. The Parent Summit was created in 2009 by a group of involved parents led by the late Curtis T. Winton, a Rialto parent and grandparent. The district’s Parent Center is named after Winton, who believed that parents are the first motivating factor in their children’s lives, playing a major role in their future successes. Other founding members include Corrine Winton, Monica Del Rio, Rhonda McIverJackson, Elizabeth Moreno, Rosa Fuentes, Rafael Chavarria, and Jackie Urbita.

ental illness doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t target a specific gender, race or nationality. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t discriminate on the basis of age, financial status or personality type. According to www.save.org, one in every five Americans are affected by some type of mental illness each year, with depression being the most common. A CEO of a major corporation is just as much at risk as a fast food employee, both hiding their conditions and dealing with it in silence. Sadly, we too often hear of someone who seemingly had a wonderful life decide that they couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t suffer anymore and take their own life. Suicide doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t differentiate between a wellknown celebrity or an athletic high school student; everyone with depression and mental illness are at risk. Currently, suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for ages 1524 according to www.Communityofhope.org. I commend our County Superintendent of Schools, Ted Alejandre, for his efforts to apply suicide prevention tactics in our schools. Having skilled teachers who can employ intervention techniques for depression and anti-bullying provide the emotional and physical support students need is key to reducing the number of teen deaths by suicide. The County of San Bernardino also offers many programs through the Department of Behavioral Health with services for mental health, drug and alcohol, crisis intervention, and crisis

We all know of someone who at some point took their life when the suffering was too much. What could we have done to help? Did we know they suffered and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how to help? Or were we simply not aware of the signs? Everyone plays a role in suicide prevention, and many organizations are helping by giving us the tools we need so we can see the warning signs. SAVE (Suicide Awareness Voices of Education) https://save.org/ and YellowRibbon https://yellowribbon.org/ have online tools we can use to help those who show signs of suicidal thoughts. The San Bernardino County Department of Behavioral Health http://wp.sbcounty.gov/dbh has a crisis hotline available 24/7 at 1-888-743-1478. We all owe it to each other to become engaged in the conversation and do our part to help. Using social media is one way to stay alert and engaged. Instagram accounts like Help Prevent Suicide, Living for Yourself and Stop Suicide 503 are just some of the accounts that bring awareness and give inspirational messages and hope to those who suffer. Hashtags have become popular with #LetsTalk and #YoureNotAlone which seek to bring awareness and a community of support to everyone who suffers. Recognize the signs and help save a life.

To be just American

Hello to all our readers out there. Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from the 15th of September to the 15th of October mainly because several Latin American countries celebrate their independence during that month, including Mexico. The Spaniards arrived in Mexico 100 years before the British arrived in the United States but by the time they declared their independence from Great Britain they were already just American due the fact that they were white. Every other group has had a label for nearly 5 centuries since the conquest of Mexico. To this day, we carry the labels of Hispanic Americans, Mexican Americans to name a few. This has created a loss of identity within our community of hispanic origin due to the fact that in the near past, the white people were and still are the majority in the society and government. For more than 170 years, the society has put us in a box of prejudices and false perceptions and now, without knowing, are all automatically â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mexican Americanâ&#x20AC;? or of hispanic descent looking for that box we think we belong in. We discriminate ourselves by skin color, race or social status because unbeknownst to us, we have been preconditioned for so long by the

discrimination and abuse. There is so much insecurity and loss of identity that we look for something, real or imaginary, to make us feel superior to others, many times our own race, and unfortunately, not always in the most positive ways. I believe this is large part what gave way to the gang culture in our communities. That serves as an example of how we have divided ourselves and sheds light on our lack of unity. We know we are the same race but we are different. We see this distinction in the Mexicans who stayed on this side of the border after Mexico lost the territory to the United States. After some time they learned English but they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fully assimilate due to the discrimination and marginalization they had to endure. They spoke English but they felt different, and many times even superior, to new Mexican immigrants because they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t speak English and they were in the country illegally. Just like that, every group, despite belonging to the same race, has separated themselves from one another without realizing that, for the government, made up of white people with their racist politics and laws, there is no difference between the groups. To them, everyone is Mexican. The his-

panic people suffered discrimination, marginalization and abuse, without distinction of race or immigration status. This is something we continue to see but the discrimination now is not as obvious. Discrimination now can be felt and seen through the institutions (education, health, etc) and agencies who should be providing opportunities and help through the government to our communities. At the same time, this is reflected through our lack of involvement in the politics of this country, resulting in our lack of political power. Our community fails to understand that voting gives us a voice. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rid ourselves of labels and feeling sorry for ourselves and remember that we are AMERICANS of hispanic descent. We can no longer allow division between us. We are one people, one race. We must be united. If you arrived in the country yesterday, unite. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re family has been in the country for a century, unite together so that we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just celebrate our heritage and contributions for just one month, but also to celebrate the blessing it is to be just AMERICAN.

Latinx versus Latina/o versus Hispanicâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the 21st Centur y Hispanic, Latina/o, Latin@, and Latinx are all terms that have been used to categorize or label people from 21 Spanish-speaking countries. As a psychology scholar of Mexican-American heritage (born in Lorain, Ohio), I have lived through the evolution of identity monikers that do not always fit who I am or how I want to identify ethnically. In fact, many colleagues and friends prefer to call themselves Puerto Rican, Colombian, Dominican, or Chicana because this expresses their ethnic heritage, their family history--something more personal. In the 1960s, the term Chicana/o was assumed by individuals of Mexican-American heritage (born in the U.S.) as another way to selfidentify and express self-determination. With leaders such as CĂŠsar ChĂĄvez and Dolores Huerta, the Chicano power movement emerged along with the Civil Rights movement led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The goal was to fight for the rights of farmworkers and laborers, victims of wide-spread discrimination. The newspaper was how I learned about Chicanas/os in California, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas and their collective power to fight injustices. Often, I wished I could be in out West among thousands of Chicanas who seemed to be doing amazing social justice advocacy. I do not recall when I became Hispanic, but it was likely in the 1970s, following the first U.S. Census categorizing us. This broad term refers to the Spanish-speaking persons primarily with Latin American heritage. This could mean people born in the U.S. or outside of

the country â&#x20AC;&#x201D;needless to say, quite confusing. Hispanic also references the peninsula of Hispania that includes Spain and Portugal. Regardless, the term still seems to be widely used in the press, by politicians and by government agencies. When I lived in Boston, I recall the term Boricua, used by persons of Puerto Rican heritage to selfidentify. Boricua is the term given to Puerto Rico by the islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s indigenous TaĂno Indians. Terms such as Chicana/o or Boricua do not show up on the U.S. Census. The move away from Hispanic to Latino began for some of us in the 1990s, though the 1990 U.S. Census continued to use the term Hispanic. Latino was meant to include people of Brazilian heritage, for whom Portuguese, not Spanish, is the primary language. In time, many of us began to modify our new â&#x20AC;&#x153;shared identityâ&#x20AC;? with Latina/o to be inclusive of both genders. An important shift came when I became the founding president of the National Latina/o Psychological Association; the person recommending the Latina/o word was a man. Another modification of the identity term came with Latin@ and Latin@s, meant to be a genderneutral terms Essentially, the @ symbolizes both genders with the â&#x20AC;&#x153;aâ&#x20AC;? for the female and the â&#x20AC;&#x153;oâ&#x20AC;?, for the male. The pronunciation of Latin@ varies, and some like me will still say Latina/Latino when speaking. The term Latinx arrived on the scene with force in about 2014 and has been examined by scholars, journalists, and social justice

advocates as a more inclusive term. More specifically, Latinx, pronounced la-teen-ex is about inclusion; it is a non-binary, gender-neutral term and inclusive of LGBTQ and gender-fluid persons. I admit I did not readily embrace Latinx; I wondered if we would be taken less seriously as academics by using a contemporary term that might not last. But in the spirit of diversity and inclusion, I am on board. My newest book is titled Latinx Immigrants. Hispanic, Latin@, Latinx and Latinxs (plural for Latinx) are not perfect terms but for those of us who share in this identity, it is still a matter of personal choice whether we use the broader terms, refer to our ethnic heritage or simply say we are American. I continue to self-identity as Mexican-American and use Latinx in my writing and speaking engagementsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and this seems to resonate with my audiences. Journalists, academics, and others, using Latinx suggests greater sociopolitical awareness, and of course, a sense of inclusion of all Latinx persons. Though the period from September 16-October 15 is officially called Hispanic Heritage Month, some of us will be celebrating it as Latinx Heritage Month. Patricia Arredondo, EdD, is a faculty fellow at Fielding Graduate University, past president of the American Counseling Association, and was just named a Woman of Color Changemaker by the American Psychological Association.

Histo r y o f t he El Chicano By Maryjoy Duncan

and civil rights.

he assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy, the Vietnam war, the struggle for civil rights and racial equality underscored the social tumult that would distinguish the 60s. This was a period when violence, riots and protests were a means to address social injustices. It was also a time when the Mexican-American population was steeped in negative social stigma such as lazy, uneducated and criminal.

Funding was lost after the first year due to a political cartoon the El Chicano printed. It targeted a sitting elected official and deemed offensive; the University maintained that the grant was for nonpolitical purposes. It was then, in 1969 that the publication began operations as an independent press, run by married couples Gloria and Bill Harrison, and Marta Macias Brown and former husband Sam McQueen.

In 1968 a young group of activists from San Bernardino and Riverside, inspired and influenced by the likes of Octavio Paz and José Vasconcelos Calderón who penned La Raza Cósmica ("Cosmic Race"), were determined to reinvent public perception, provide a voice to and tell the stories of the underserved and underrepresented Mexican-American community. It was determined the most effective method would be through the power of the pen. Coincidentally that same year the University of California Riverside had received a grant through the Ford Foundation that had a surplus of $1,500 after allocations. It was with this money that the El Chicano was funded in its first year. The name "El Chicano" was

The El Chicano was initially funded by a grant through UC Riverside, but was revoked after the first year when the publication printed the above cartoon that was perceived as offensive. At that point the El Chicano began operations as an independent press run by married couples Gloria Macias and Bill Harrison, and Marta Macias Brown and former husband Sam McQueen. chosen purposefully. There was a divide among Mexican-Americans over whether they should be identified as Mexican or MexicanAmerican. The activists proudly identified themselves simply as Americans, who were equally proud of their heritage. "Chicano," derived from an indigenous Mexican/Native word coming from the Nahuatl (Aztec) word for "native," aptly describes the nature of the Mexican national identity that is 60% Mestizo, 30% indigenous, with the remaining 10% being of European or other descent.

When the first issue of El Chicano published in April of 1968 it provoked some outrage among older community members who claimed the name implied "chico" or "chicannery," both of which left derogatory impressions. But the name prevailed. The publication was solely based on editorials and opinions. The main issues El Chicano addressed were lack of educational opportunities for minority students, integration of schools, farm workers' rights, racial and social inequality, anti-war (Vietnam) expressions,

In one of the earliest editions of the publication, the article "What is 'El Chicano?'" read in part: "We have the lowest number of professional people. We are very poorly represented in any policy or decision making body, whether it's local, state or federal. We have one of the lowest average incomes; and most of our people make a living in semi-skilled or unskilled jobs. It is this serious and perplexing dichotomy that has brought us together. It is this miserable imbalance between the good and the bad among our people, that has brought us together." Writers for El Chicano received no compensation, rather, they were driven by a shared passion to improve the quality of life for the Mexican-American community. Many of the early issues were composed from a living room floor.

Inland Empire Community Newspapers • October 11, 2018 • Page A7

1968 - 2018 Then and now By Bob Morales, an early contributor to El Chicano and a resident of San Bernardino 50 years have passed. A lifetime for some but a microscopic sliver in the history of man. Somebody once told me that God invented time so that everything didn’t happen all at once, but I suspect it might have been borrowed from a physicist or a philosopher. I was a senior at Cal State, San Bernardino in 1968. It was in its infancy, ensconced in a north part of town, apparently famous for its roaming coyotes. It was a noble institution of learning, with John Pfau at the helm. More than a few of the professors were brought over from the University of Chicago. I had struggled through the first two years of undergraduate work at San Bernardino Valley College. A few may remember those golden years. As I recall college tuition was a few measly dollars. And imagine a day when you graduated from college without owing an arm and a leg to a lender. A recent presidential candidate was considered looney by some for proposing a return to what was a reality in the 1960’s. The jump from junior college to Cal State was an absolute culture shock to me, going from a customary one or two books per class to half a dozen to more per class. Humiliation for a dummy, like me, was not unusual. I remember a professor explaining his syllabus assignments. I noted he had left out some chapters in his outline of readings. I asked, “Sir, do we have

“Somewhere along the the journey through time we lost our way toward greatness. We replaced cathedrals with shopping malls. Americans became more enraptured with the day of Super Bowl rather than Christmas Eve. “...any hope or fight for change will come from youth.” to read the chapters in the book you didn’t specify or underline?” His response, “Mr. Morales, I had you buy the whole book for a reason so read the whole book to play it safe for subsequent quizzes or discussions.” But more importantly, I remember the wisdom imparted in their lectures, sometimes as an addendum to the readings. Some of those words remain alive today as they did then. “Remember that it is not generals who start wars – it is writers.” “We (professors) have a duty to teach you how to think but never what to think.” “We (professors) will not have fulfilled the requirements of a good education, if we fail to impress upon you the duties you will inherit as a citizen of a representative Democracy to always remain informed and attentive as to the actions and intents of those elected to represent you through public office.” In a break between classes I

asked the Chair of the Sociology Department (class was “Social Problems”), “As a hypothetical, assume we someday solved all the problems of social conflict, then what’s next?” “If we ever reached that goal, perhaps we could spend more time exploring not only the furthest corners of the universe but try to gain an understanding on the meaning of life and human relations.” The era before 60’s, at least for some, was a carefree youth, filled with hot rods, Beach Boys and rock and roll. But thanks to my nerdy chums on the tennis team (collegebound), I was also being exposed to thinkers and writers. Bertrand Russell became my favorite philosopher. He wrote about the need for all of us to tolerate (other cultures/countries), cooperate, or face a possible extinction, especially with the specter of nuclear war on the horizon. Russell was so prophetic. He said that technological progress was always at least a

decade ahead of the moral development of mankind. Double down on that in today’s world. America had done a noble deed not only in fighting against and defeating tyrants trying to conquer the world, but also in assisting a devastated Europe after World War II get back on its feet (Marshall Plan), later benefiting by creating a world market for American goods. America’s “greatest generation” gave their lives and limbs to ensure American values of freedom, compassion, and justice prevailed. There were the days whereby a high school education could land you a job not only with a living wage, but one providing an opportunity to move to a socio-economic middle class life. A great soldier from WWII, Dwight D. Eisenhower, was later elected as America’s 34th president. One of his greatest contributions to our posterity was his prescient warning about the growing threat of the “military-industrial complex” to our form of government. By the 1970’s the people’s representatives in Washington were too busy raising money from lobbyists (who subsequently outnumbered congressional reps) to satisfy the needs of corporate welfare rather than the needs of ordinary citizens. But getting back to 1968, that was the year God decided not to have everything happen all at once but decided instead to throw everything into one year.

College students were protesting and rioting on campuses, some, on behalf of economic disparity in this, the richest country in the world, but many also outraged over a war against a tiny nation on the other side of the world, Viet Nam. Some of us who bothered to read knew that their own selected leader actually admired America’s historical roots, that their relationship to communist China was riddled with historic conflict rather than harmony. But the corporate war machine spoke and won with napalm and toxic chemicals to demonstrate our superiority. We killed almost millions of their tiny population and what did we win? 1968. Heads and bodies of students were clobbered on campuses. Blood also ran from the riots in the inner cities. The My Lai Massacre – a wholesale massacre of unarmed Vietnamese women, children and old men by American soldiers. Incidentally, it was an American soldier who risked his life to stop the murderous assault at the hands of fellow soldiers. 1968. Black Panthers stormed the capitol of California. An American president announced his intention not to run for another term. Many names now etched in the history of that year, some noble and brave, others maybe not. LBJ. George Wallace.

Rock & Roll took a step back and made room for anti-war lyrics. Joan Baez. Phil Ochs, who wrote and sang about old men leading us into war but then sending the young to go die in battle. In 1968 the Cal State Campus was a quiet place with a well-behaved student body. We were busy studying for our degrees so we could achieve a “better” life. But I tired of watching the slaughter of human beings on T.V. Every night, of watching bombs explode, napalm burning human beings, and chemicals poisoning humans and plants. I walked on to that peaceful campus one morning, where no demonstrations or speeches against the war had taken place with “Stop The War” painted on the back of a white dress shirt. I was scared, but I could no longer hold in my outrage to an injustice. That day I learned I was not alone. Within a couple days another student and I initiated the unheard of for our part of the woods - a chapter of Students For A Democratic Society. My involvement in political organizing and speaking out became a strange new part of my life. 2018. The Soviet Union is no longer a threat, but Russia remains an adversary. The centers of political, military, and economic powers have shifted, and China now

stands poised to challenge our standing as a world leader. Wars, economic crises, and even changes attributed to earth warming have caused millions to migrate away from home lands, creating culture clashes and social instabilities. We no longer fight the possibility of communism spreading in South America but are now concerned about the spread of ISIS in Africa. Black Power has morphed into Black Lives Matter? When Robert Kennedy was assassinated I thought my world was crushed and all hope had left forever. I actually ran along side his car in a local parade, thinking, “I’m so close to history”. But life goes on. And hope returned. Somewhere along the journey through time we lost our way toward greatness. We replaced cathedrals with shopping malls. Americans became more enraptured with the day of Super Bowl rather than Christmas Eve. In the 1920’s the invention of the radio made it possible for politicians to persuade thousands in one-direction propaganda process rather than going from door-todoor or shouting from the back of a train. Today, Fox News has become an electronic mesmerized on steroids. Many see our current president and paralyzed congress as a new phenomena. No - they are an extension of what we have allowed for too long. As long as politicians promise lower taxes, if pay checks seemed adequate and gas was cheap, we put congress on autopilot and let corporate lobbyists

become their constituencies. We have allowed our congress to sit back and shirk their constitutional duty to declare a state of war and allowed the Presidency to call the shots. It seems there are two kinds of people who aspire to “public service” through elected office. Some see it as lucrative opportunity for personal gain and corporate profit and others who hopefully chase that elusive butterfly of improving citizen’s lives, whether through jobs, housing, education, or medical care. Our current President has done his utmost to destroy Americans’ trust in our institutions of law and justice, our free press, and the Judiciary. Imagine a world of Pentagon Papers and Watergate without a free press and an independent judiciary. He has branded “Mexicans” (and by extension Mexican-Americans) “rapists” and “drug dealers”. Trust me, that label will not easily be eased in the minds of a few. Our duty, yours and mine, is to protect and restore our institutions of government as our founding fathers intended. Three branches of government. A separation of powers. Ensure our elected representatives live up to their oath to truly protect and defend our constitution rather than a win for their political party. A responsible citizen’s duty in a democratic republic begins but does not end in the voting booth. It also requires keeping tabs on those in government and holding their feet to the fire - throughout their tenure in office. A free soci-

ety requires eternal vigilance. But that’s just the beginning. We need to take the money and the profit motive out of our governmental process. Otherwise the accumulation of wealth funneled to the top 1% will continue, and economic disparity will continue to erode America as we have known it. Why am I writing this to you? Because you are young and will be graduating from high school or college. My hope remains through you.

I’m 81 years old. Perhaps too old to march in the streets or join an SDS. But as I have learned in my lifetime it is not the old or the congress or the courts who dare to fight for change - any hope or fight for change will come from youth. I leave you with the words of Robert Kennedy “Some men see things as they are, and ask why. I see things that never were, and ask why not?”

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 051884-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

Scouting for Food Donation set for Saturday, Oct. 13

n Saturday October 13th the Boy Scouts of America invites you and your neighbors to support your local food pantries while you shop at your local grocery stores in the Inland Empire communities from Grand Terrace to Banning along the I-10 corridor and across the San Bernardino Valley up to Lake Arrowhead, Blue Jay and Crestline in the San Bernardino Mountains. The Gray Arrow District Boy Scouts will be “Scouting for Food” October 13th collecting non-perishable food items from shoppers in these communities at grocery store entrances. Stater Bros., Albertsons, Gerrards, and Vons are the participating grocery stores in the greater San Bernardino Valley up into Banning Pass areas, while Jensen’s and Goodwin’s join Stater Bros. in the mountain communities. Please encourage your families, friends and neighbors to help the Scouts do a meaningful “Good Turn” for your communities by donating food items intended for needy families that reside in your local communities. Scouting for Food has been an

annual “Good Turn” community service for America, performed by Scouts of all ages in the California Inland Empire Council since 2001. Collected food items are distributed to food pantries of local non-profit agencies including the San Bernardino and Redlands Salvation Army Service Offices, the Family Service Association of Redlands, its Yucaipa Outreach Project, as well as Yucaipa Family Assistance, and H.E.L.P. Inc. in the Banning Pass. In addition, donated food items are passed to Operation Provider in the mountain communities and for the first time this year the Inland Empire Ronald McDonald House in Loma Linda. These agencies all provide emergency assistance that includes food distribution and other needed services to needy or disadvantaged and transitional families. The area served by these agencies includes Grand Terrace, Loma Linda, Redlands, Mentone, Yucaipa, Highland, Forest Falls, Angelus Oaks, Beaumont, Calimesa, Banning, San Bernardino, Devore, Lake Arrowhead, Blue Jay, and Crestline. Food is especially needed this time of year as the weather cools and the pantries

of these charities are at their lowest before the holidays. On October 13, between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., when you shop for groceries below the mountains, Scouts in uniform will give you a list of suggested food items most needed by these service agencies as you enter the stores. This Scouting for Food program will take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the mountain communities. As you make your purchase, exit the store, present your donated food to a smiling Cub or Boy Scout as you place the food into the large colEl Chicano Joe Amador, Jesse Ibarra, Ana Torres, Petra Silva and Lydia Perez. In addition to addressing high rates of juvenile delinquency and high school dropouts among Mexican-American youth, editors emphasized the need for inclusion of minorities in advanced high school curriculum and called for a robust vocational training model to serve a population that will not pursue higher education. "Educators have lost their perspective when it comes to dealing with educational goals. In their desire to have everyone obtain a college degree, they have forgotten or do not care to remember that a great part of our youth is just not being included in their plans. They have overlooked the youths that are simply never going to set foot in a college. Quite often these youths are the first to admit to themselves and to others, that they do not have the potential to go to college and they also do not have the money to waste while giving it a try. "This is by no means reason enough to call them failures or re-

lection boxes to which they are attending. Collected food will be sorted and delivered to these local community agencies by Scouts, their parents, and adult Scout leaders of the Gray Arrow District, California Inland Empire Council, Boy Scouts of America. If you have any questions in respect to our Scouting for Food program, please contact Ed Lucas, our Gray Arrow District “Scouting for Food” Chairman for 2018 at either edmech02@msn.com or his cell: (951) 906-3713. gard them as degenerates of society. On the contrary, more power to them for having the ability and sense to assess their capabilities and limitations and making a realistic decision. However, high schools being what they are today - they do not prepare very many students in such a way that it is possible for them to obtain respectable jobs upon graduation." 50 years later the MexicanAmerican is better represented in government and educational opportunities have increased, but social tensions and racial inequality still persist. Today the El Chicano, owned and operated by Gloria and Bill Harrison, has grown to become a segment of the Inland Empire Community News Group that includes the Colton Courier and the Rialto Record weekly newspapers, as well as the online-only Inland Empire Weekly. What began as a small editorial publication has burgeoned to become a well respected and trusted communication platform, highlighting achievements, local news, cultural features and educational issues of the community.
