Mayor Butts and Inglewood Come Full Circle
By Veronica Mackey
In the 13 years that Inglewood Mayor James T. Butts, Jr. has held office, he has left an indelible mark. The “Bareknuckled Mayor” as coined by Times writer Erika D. Smith, has spearheaded groundbreaking deals for his city that demand attention.
First, there was SoFi Stadium the award-winning sports and entertainment venue that brought billionaire L.A. Rams owner Stan Kroenke to the table. The L.A. Chargers soon followed.
From Day One, SoFi has been a magnet for the NFL and big-name entertainers like Beyonce, Taylor Swift and the Rolling Stones. SoFi will host Super Bowl LXI in 2027, followed by the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2028 Summer Olympics.
A stone’s throw away is Hollywood Park. It was in place before Butts came, but it’s now undergoing major renovation with high-end retail and housing to the mayor’s credit. The Kia Forum continues to be a major contender for the concert scene in Southern California, and a fierce competitor of the Crypto Arena in Downtown L.A.
Now that the Intuit Dome, home of the L.A. Clippers, is about to open, Inglewood is continuing its forward
trajectory of providing more attractions, more jobs, and more revenue.
It’s a long way from the days when
California 2024 Budget Agreement Includes Funding for Reparations Bill Implementation, Victim Services and More
By Joe W. Bowers Jr. | California Black Media
In a move supporting vulnerable communities, the 2024 California budget agreement has earmarked $103 million in one-time funding for victims’ services programs. This allocation is designed to compensate for federal funding cuts and ensure continued support for crime victims across the state.
Grace Glaser of VALOR, a member of the California VOCA Advocacy Alliance, a statewide coalition of organizations dedicated to supporting survivors of crime, advocates, and their communities, praised this move, stating,
“Gov. Newsom and the legislature have temporarily stitched [the safety net] back together with their commitment to one-time backfill funding, ensuring that for now, victims will receive support during the most traumatic and dangerous times of their lives.”
While grateful for the current funding, Glaser emphasized the need for ongoing financial commitment to ensure long-term stability for victims’ services in California. She said, “Our coalition will be back next year, urging Gov. Newsom and the Legislature to prioritize the needs of survivors of crime on an ongoing basis.”
The budget also allocates $12
million to support the implementation of reparations legislation enacted into law this session. This funding aims to help address historical injustices and promote equity and justice for Black Californians.
Assemblymember Lori Wilson (D-Suisun City), California Legislative Black Caucus (CLBC) Chair, told California Black Media: “I consider the governor’s allocation of $12 million for reparations resources a win. While the Legislative Black Caucus is committed to getting our legislative work on Reparations fully funded, I believe this is a positive start, especially during a challenging budget year. As I’ve
always emphasized, this is a multiyear effort to implement the legislative recommendations in the report.”
The 2024 CLBC Reparation Priority Bill Package includes 14 measures being considered by the Assembly and Senate. Additionally, CLBC vice chair Sen Steven Bradford (D-Inglewood) has proposed two reparations-focused bills not included in the package, also under review by the legislature. The deadline for each house to pass these bills is Aug. 31.
Bradford expressed gratitude for the

Beat the Heat, Be Safe This Summer
By Willie Brown
Summer has barely begun, and already there are reports of extreme heat across the U.S. As temperatures rise, it is important to be aware of the potential risks of heat on the body.
When the body becomes overheated, blood vessels dilate, leading to lower blood pressure and increased heart rate. Being overheated can lead to numerous conditions including heat rash, swollen feet, dizziness, nausea, fainting, confusion, muscle cramps, headaches, and fatigue. In severe cases, heat exhaustion can occur,
potentially leading to heart attacks if blood pressure drops too low.
Here’s a checklist to keep you and your loved ones safe this summer:
•Check in on loved ones, especially those who are elderly and those who may not have air conditioning in their homes
•Stay in shaded areas within your home as well as outside
•Drink plenty of fluids. Water is
preferred over soft drinks because sugar and carbonation cause dehydration. If you aren’t a fan of water, try making it tastier by adding lemon, mint, cucumber or a little fruit juice. Gatorade, or any drink with electrolytes is good.
•Never leave a child
•in your car in hot weather. This should be obvious, but every year, we hear new reports of children who have died as a result of adults leaving them in a hot car, unattended. Also, it’s best to leave your pets at home.
•Keep physical exertion to a minimum.
•If you or someone else shows signs

of heat exhaustion, move them to a cool place, give them water and cool their skin.
•Remember, heat-related deaths happen in the early stages of a heatwave and are often related to underlying health conditions. The elderly, and those with underlying health conditions, or those taking certain medications are at the highest risk.
By following safety precautions and staying aware of the risks, you can protect yourself and those you love.

How Clean is Your Cannabis?
By Veronica Mackey
Imagine having a chronic illness and learning your local state-approved cannabis dispensary is a hotbed for substances that could kill you?
According to ABC News, doctors at U.C. Davis Medical Center in Sacramento believe a cancer patient died from a rare fungal infection last February, due to pot that was supposed to make the patient feel better.
Truth is, there are millions of pounds of untested weed on shelves right now that do not meet state safety standards. However, this is about to change. The state has given growers and sellers until July 1 to sell the untested pot they already have.
According to the State Bureau of Cannabis, until now, labeling product as “not tested” was the best it could do to inform shoppers of the risks, and still have product available on day one. The state now requires testing for 66 pesticides, harmful chemicals, bacteria and dangerous fungi.
The Bureau added that there are just 57 testing labs statewide available to evaluate safety and potency. While some fungi might be harmless in food, it can be dangerous if smoked.
According to the cannabis industry association, just 5-percent of cannabis products for sale in the state are tested for safety. Eventually everything will be labeled with testing results.
Currently if products are not tested, they will have a sticker on them that will say “untested.”
So, does this mean edibles are any safter than smoked cannabis?
Edibles can be just as contaminated as the flowers. And. although they don’t pose a respiratory risk, edibles come with other issues. They are harder to dose accurately, so it’s easier to overdose with edibles than
with smoked cannabis. The delayed onset and prolonged effects of edibles make people assume they need to consume more because the effects are not immediate.
Regardless of how cannabis is consumed, consumers should be aware that daily cannabis use is associated with a higher risk of heart attack and stroke, regardless of consumption method, according
to the Journal of the American Heart Association.
Cannabis itself is not highly toxic, but unknown, untested contaminants are.
Overall, cannabis can lead to severe behavioral impairment, such as cognitive and motor dysfunction, anxiety, and even transient psychotic symptoms. Use with caution and pay attention to labeling.
Behind the Scenes of the I-405 Improvement Project
By Stephanie Vargas
When you hear the word “archaeology,” what do you think about? Indiana Jones? Academics with hats dusting and digging in Egypt? Archaeology encompasses much more. And, a specially trained archaeologist, called a site monitor, is integral to the construction of homes, commercial buildings, and even in the I-405 Improvement Project.
According to the Department of Transportation, the 405 Improvement Project spans 16 miles of the I-405 highway and stretches from State Route 73 to Interstate 605, adding one new general purpose lane and one new toll lane in each direction. Work began in November 2016, with the majority of construction completed by December 2023. As part of the construction process, site monitors must be present to watch the debris unearthed by construction workers. Their job is to keep an eye out for anything that could be considered a cultural resource, including discarded
tools, pottery shards, animal bones, and human remains.
Site monitors often work alongside tribal monitors who represent interests of local tribes. Their cultural knowledge is invaluable even to a site monitor. If the monitors find any cultural resources, construction must pause while they evaluate the provenience and significance of the item. This can take anywhere from a few minutes to several hours before monitors can accurately advise the foreman on how to proceed. One of the biggest worries for anyone on the jobsite is the discovery of human remains because that could point to the presence of a gravesite.
If it is determined that there is a high
likelihood of additional remains present in the location, archaeologists and field technicians are called in to conduct salvage archaeology. They excavation methods to unearth and document the remains. The excavation process can sometimes take several months before construction may resume. Salvage archaeology can be applied to other objects of antiquity as well. Any artifacts or remains that are discovered are then sent to the proper channels for further documentation and preservation, and sometimes, repatriation.
The job of a site monitor or tribal monitor is vitally important to the preservation and respect of Native American culture. Gideon Cauffman, staff archaeologist of Oak Harbor in Washington, told the Whidbey NewsTimes, “We have a responsibility
by state and federal law to preserve cultural resources.” California has some of the strictest regulations regarding construction, the environment, and cultural resources. This has caused many projects to be drawn out but, arguably, not without reason.
Fortunately, because of the efforts of archaeologists and local tribes and compliance of construction workers, Southern Californians can now reap the benefits of the expanded and mended 405 highway guilt free.

BET Experience Takes Over This Week
By Maya Mackey
A week after Kendrick Lamar’s “Ken and Friends” Juneteenth concert (or as affectionately known online asThe Pop Out) Black Music Month will come to a thrilling close with the BET Experience.
Kendrick propped up Black LA Music History with both up and coming and seasoned performers such as Ray Vaughn, TDE’s newest edition to their roster, and Tommy the Clown, a hip-hop performer who had the 2000s youth in L.A., krumping and breakdancing. His friends also included DJ Mustard, an L.A. Native, who played an electrifying set of hits from 2 Chainz “I’m Different” to Tyga’s “Rack City” and “Show Me” by Kid Ink and Chris Brown.
LA based artists YG, Tyler the Creator, Dom Kennedy and Kendrick’s former label mates, Schoolboy Q, Jay Rock and Ab-Soul were also a part of the festivities. At the end of Kendrick’s set, Dr. Dre came out to introduce the diss record turned song of the summer, “Not Like Us”. Kendrick then replayed four additional times. Yes. Kendrick Lamar performed Not Like Us five times then walked off to the instrumental playing for a total of six
plays. I thank God that I have never been hated by someone that badly.
But truthfully, this show wasn’t about Drake for real. It was a celebration of Blackness, of Los Angeles Blackness, specifically and it felt good. To see Kendrick unite different community members on
stage, celebrities and common folk alike, and to allow them to share in the joy of his fourth performance of “Not Like Us” to which he paused briefly to get a group picture on stage–I’ve never witnessed anything like it.
The concert was far from polished, but I think Kendrick preferred it that way. It was truly a family gathering. It really was Kendrick and his friends just vibing and celebrating Juneteenth, with subtle jabs at his opposition of course.
This weekend will close out Black Music Month in LA with the BET Experience, culminating in the BET Awards Ceremony on June 30th, hosted by Taraji P. Henson! The show promises to be one to remember with Usher to be presented with a well-deserved Lifetime Achievement Award and Will Smith hitting the stage to debut a new song. The list of performers include Glorilla, Ice Spice, Latto, Ms. Lauryn Hill &YG Marley, Muni Long, Sexyy Red, Shaboozey, Tyla, and Victoria Monét
and Tanner Adell performing on the BET Amplified stage during the preshow.
Every year, the BET EXPERIENCE serves as a 4 day long festival leading up to the official award’s ceremony with concerts, panels, and fan giveaways and activations.
On June 28th, there’s a new Hip Hop show with Cardi B, Gunna, SexxyRed and Davido. On June 29th, there’s an old Soul Hip Hop show over at The Hollywood Bowl. The Roots Picnic with Queen Latifah, Common, The Roots and Jungle Brothers. There will be three comedy shows running from June 26-June 28, featuring Chris Spencer, Michael Blackson and Tiffany Haddish respectfully.
The celebrity basketball competition is an annual Fan Fest activation with vendors, activations and photo opps and an open casting call! Seriously, you can pull up on June 28th and show your singing, dancing, rapping, acting or hosting skills in front of the BET Casting Department. It’s completely free, just dress to impress, bring a recent photo of yourself and prepare to shine. The line starts at 8 AM, doors open at 9 AM and auditions start at 10 AM. That should be more than enough to help you get your Black summer on. For tickets to all of the events, go to bet.com/topic/betexperience.
Texas Man Fined and Sentenced for Threatening Rep. Maxine Waters
U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Los Angeles) and her family can rest a little easier, thanks to the conviction of a Texas man who threatened her 4 times over the phone in her Hawthorne office.
Brian Gaherty of Houston, 61, was sentenced to 33 months in a federal prison, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, who said Waters was threatened with physical violence and death. In one of the recorded calls, Gaherty told Waters he would “cut your throat.”
A total of four calls were made in 2022—two in August and two in November. Authorities contacted Gaherty in October and warned him to stop, but he persisted. He was ordered to pay a $10,000 fine and serve a nearly three-year prison term. A hate crime enhancement was applied to the sentence by U.S. District Judge R. Gary Klausner because he found Waters was targeted because of her race.
Waters appeared in court in downtown
Los Angeles for the sentencing on June 17. She said threats made by Gaherty have caused her and her family members to live in fear, and that the incidents have “given me nightmares,”
Outside, she told reporters: “I’m hopeful that this will be a deterrent to those who believe they can threaten an elected official, threaten to kill us and terrorize us. I really think this goes a long way to holding him accountable.”
She noted rising incidents of violence targeting women of color and people of color,” and said, “I came here today because I want to understand, I want to know why we have people with that much hatred and that much dislike of people of color.”
Gaherty admitted to threatening Waters and pleaded guilty to one felony count of threatening a United States official. He said he was “sorry this happened” and “I have no hatred in my heart.”

Black Leadership Council Honors California’s Three Black Constitutional Officers
Antonio Ray Harvey | California Black Media
The Black Leadership Council (BLC) honored Secretary of State Shirley Weber, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond, and Controller Malia Cohen on June 19 during its Juneteenth Legislative Awards Luncheon in Sacramento.
Along with other awardees, California’s three Black constitutional officers were honored for their dedication to excellence, vision for equality, and awareness of political rights. The awards presentation was held at the Sutter Club near the State Capitol.
The state’s other constitutional officers are Gov. Gavin Newsom, Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalikis, Attorney General Rob Bonta, Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara, State Treasurer Fiona Ma and the four members of the state’s Board of Equalization.
“It was a wonderful event. Well done,” Weber said. “They’ve honored some wonderful people. I am just proud to be a part of the list.”
Honorees included Dr. Flojaune Cofer, an Epidemiologist, Policy Director, Community Advocate, and mayoral candidate in Sacramento; and Tomiquia Moss, who was appointed by Gov. Gavin Newsom as the Secretary of the Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency (BCSHA) in November 2023.
Tiyesha Watts, a legislative and policy analyst for the California Academy of Family Physicians, was the youngest of the six honorees. She is well known around the State Capitol for being an outspoken advocate, bringing awareness to
challenges people are facing in socio-economically disadvantaged communities.
Tasha Henneman, Chief of Policy and Government Affairs for PRC (formerly Positive Resource Center), shared that she admired Watts’ leadership and extreme knowledge of the legislative process.
“I was immediately impressed by her intellect, professionalism, grace, and confidence from providing expert testimony on a bill or just in a ‘me too’ moment, or just facilitating a meeting with a physician or budget staff,” said Henneman.
BLC co-chairs Brett Andrews, interim CEO of All Home; and Felton Institute CEO Al Gilbert provided opening remarks, along with PRC CEO Chuan Teng and board treasurer Darren Smith.
Kapri Walker, chair of the California Legislative Black Staff Association (CLBSA), addressed the need for more Black legislative staff. Walker, who is from San Diego, is a former Capital Senate Fellow. She said CLBS is currently raising money to fund interns.

“BLC to me is not just an organization or effort that is trying to systemically change the future for Black folks. It’s a movement,” Moss, a former co-chair of BLC, said while accepting her award. “As I occupy this role (secretary of BCSHA), I think about the shoulders that I stand on, I am so honored to be in this position to further our collective work.”

allocation of $12 million in the state budget for reparations, despite the state’s current financial challenges.
“This money will start to stand up the infrastructure to pay for future reparations. We, as the California Legislative Black Caucus, made the case that the harms of slavery and racist public policies aren’t healed,” Bradford said. “This clearly states that reparations do matter and will be a priority in California going forward. This is just the beginning.”
The 2024 Budget agreement reached between Newsom, Senate President pro Tempore Mike McGuire (D-North Coast), and Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas (D-Salinas) comes at a time when the state faces significant fiscal challenges.
In his statement announcing the agreement, Newsom highlighted the budget’s role in establishing “long-term fiscal stability,” addressing both the immediate shortfall and strengthening resilience for the future.
He noted the commitment to preserving programs that support millions of Californians, including “key funding for education, health care, expanded behavioral health services, and combating homelessness.”
McGuire acknowledged that despite the difficult budget year, the situation was not as dire as initially feared. He pointed out that the budget addresses tough policy challenges by allocating resources to combat homelessness, investing in housing, and funding efforts to fight wildfires and retail theft. He also mentioned that the agreement ensures record funding for public schools, supports vulnerable communities, and addresses the climate crisis while maintaining responsible reserves.
Rivas’ statement focused on the Assembly’s efforts to protect vital public services and ensure long-term stability. He stated that the budget “prioritizes affordability and long-term stability,” securing investments to lower housing costs and sustain essential programs for vulnerable families. He emphasized the importance of balancing the budget while preserving a significant portion of the Rainy Day Fund to prepare for future challenges. “Accountability was a cornerstone of this journey, which included 72 Assembly budget hearings and hundreds of hours of public feedback,” he said.
The budget plan includes $297.9 billion in total expenditures, with $211.5 billion from the General Fund. It preserves significant reserves, with the Budget Stabilization Account projected to hold $22.2 billion at the end of the 2024-25 fiscal year.
The agreement addresses a $46.8 billion deficit through a combination of reductions, revenue increases, and fund shifts. About $16 billion in cuts come from state operations and various programs, including a nearly 8% reduction in state operations, saving $2.17 billion, and a $1.5 billion cut through the elimination of unfilled positions. The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation will see a $750 million cut over three years, with an ongoing annual reduction of about $560 million, including the

The budget also includes $13.6 billion in revenue/internal borrowing, $6 billion each in reserves withdrawals and fund shifts, $3.1 billion in expenditure delays and pauses, and $2.1 billion in payment deferrals. Revenue increases are achieved through suspending net operating loss deductions and increasing the Managed Care Organization tax.
With an expenditure of $136 billion projected for TK-12 and a per-student allocation exceeding $24,000, the budget safeguards classroom funding with constitutional protection against any revenue fluctuations the state may experience. Higher education will also see a 5% increase in base funding for the University of California and California State University systems to support enrollment growth.
The budget maintains core programs like Medi-Cal, behavioral health services, and Supplemental Security Income/State Supplemental Payment grants. It continues investments in critical areas, allocating $1 billion for homelessness programs, $250 million in encampment grants, and preserving $250 million for the Middle Mile Broadband Initiative, with an additional $250 million pending Legislature concurrence. It also secures $2 billion for Last Mile projects to connect underserved communities to broadband service.
Budget committee hearings and legislative votes on 19 budget-related bills are scheduled to be completed by June 27. June 30 is the deadline to pass all budget bills.
