African Americans learning all things financial literacy in Dr. Bey’s eight-week program

Safe to say, there currently would be no “Capable Caring Hands” non-medical home care agency business in Pittsburgh if not for Sheila Clemons’ determination and the eight-week “Understanding and Starting

Your Business” coaching program offered by Dr. Saloam Bey. In the world of financial literacy, African Americans are playing catch-up. A TIAA (Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America) report from 2019 found that in its Personal Finance Index questionnaire, 38 per-

‘Break the generational curse’ Keith Edmonds to get full back pay, benefits, zero disciplinary action

An arbitrator on Friday, March 8, ruled that Keith Edmonds, the fired Pittsburgh Police officer who tased Jim Rogers numerous times during an arrest in Bloomfield in 2021 and who later died the following day, be reinstated to the police force. The arbitrator also ruled that Edmonds receive full back pay with no disciplinary action. The news was met with swift resistance from the City of Pittsburgh and the Pittsburgh NAACP.

"First and foremost, our thoughts and our prayers go out to the friends and family of Jim Rogers.

The City is deeply disappointed in the arbitrators’ award," read the beginning of the City of Pittsburgh's statement, sent to the New Pittsburgh Courier. "Officer Edmonds himself testified that he violated the policies of the City of Pittsburgh, however this award adopts a new standard that says that even an admission of guilt by the officer isn’t enough to warrant disciplinary action. Our city deserves a police bureau that prioritizes treating every resident with dignity and respect and we deserve a system where our officers can be held accountable for their actions."

Karine Jean-Pierre affirms Biden’s vision amidst GOP opposition

President Biden strategically drove a wedge – if not a stake – through the heart of the MAGA-dominated Republican Party during his State of the Union address. While the president emphasized the escalating situation in Ukraine, aid for Palestinians and a ceasefire call, and civil and voting rights, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) visibly appeared to support Biden. Still, he appeared to catch himself when his expressions signaled a more full-throated validation.

However, Johnson is currently impeding bringing before the House of Representatives a Senate bill that received 70 votes — overwhelming bi-partisan support. The bill would provide Ukraine with $60 billion and advance other administration priorities. The House speaker’s posture reflected a clear divide within the Republican Party, evident throughout Biden’s address, as he highlighted issues that enjoy broad public support, causing uncertainty and contention among the GOP.

On the morning after the powerful State of the Union Address, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre convened with select Black and Hispanic media members to reiterate the president’s commitment to “all Americans” while denouncing Republicans for obstructing progress.

She emphasized Biden’s dedication to protecting democracy and freedom, particularly in the face of what she described as

“extremist Republicans putting out more than 300 bills that are anti-abortion.” The first Black and openly gay individual to hold her position, the Press Secretary pointed to recent developments in Alabama, where IVF was banned, as evidence of an attack on reproductive rights.

“All of you watched the President lay out his vision for more than 70 minutes for the American people,” Jean-Pierre told three journalists, including the Black Press of America, gathered in her White House office. She asserted that the administration is all about “protecting democracy, protecting our freedom, and how important it is to fight for reproductive rights, especially with extremist Republicans putting out more than 300 bills that are anti-abortion.”

“We feel our freedoms are being attacked,” JeanPierre remarked, as she eschewed her desk for a couch that made the meeting feel more of a family discussion. “You heard the president speak to that,” she continued. “This is a president that’s been fighting for the American people, fighting to lower costs, fighting to make sure we take the lead on the world stage; it was an effective State of the Union.”

She also applauded Biden’s forceful delivery and ability to confront hecklers from the Republican Party, noting that this was not the first time he had done so. Jean-Pierre called the president’s performance a win for him and the American people.

“I think the president spending 30 minutes afterwards, taking selfies

with people, and with members of Congress lining up to talk to him and have that one-on-one conversation; it was Joe Biden. It is who he is,” Jean-Pierre insisted. She also addressed concerns about his age. “He took on the age (issue) head on. He’s always direct in his speech,” she asserted. “He has said to the American people, I understand you have concerns about my age, but with age comes experience; with age comes the successes we’ve seen in the last three years, whether it’s the economy, lowering health care, the bipartisan infrastructure law, the CHIPS and Science Act, why have we been able to do this, because he has experience.”

Biden served as a senator for 36 years and his understanding of the legislative process has aided his approach to this divisive Congress, Jean-Pierre said, while summarily dismissing criticism that the State of the Union was a campaign speech, calling it ironic and desperate.

She said that despite obstructionist Republicans, Biden has numerous achievements under his belt, such as the bipartisan infrastructure law, the CHIPS and Science Act, and bipartisan agreements to keep the government open.

“The Republicans are mad that the president is fighting for democracy. They are a mad because we are fighting to get humanitarian aid into Gaza, lowering cost, fighting for health care and women’s health care more specifically,” Jean-Pierre insisted. “The issues and things president laid out last night, the majority of Americans care about and he’s going to stand up for them. The reality is that the Republicans are getting in the way. We want to build from the bottom up and middle out. They think that’s political?”

1794—Eli Whitney patents the cotton gin—a device that made cotton production much more profitable by more efficiently separating the seed from the cotton. The invention had the effect of extending the life of slavery in the South. However, there remains a historical dispute as to whether Whitney actually invented the cotton gin as most history books claim. There is some evidence that Whitney’s entire idea was based on a device developed by slaves laboring on the Georgia plantation of Catherine Green. Whitney, a lawyer, worked briefly for Green and it was while working for her that he allegedly invented the cotton gin.

1868—The impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson began in the United States Senate. The ultimate failure to convict and oust Johnson from the presidency was a major setback for the recently freed slaves. Even though he was Abraham Lincoln’s vice president, Johnson actually favored the former slave owners and the continuation of White power in the South. He was also opposed to Blacks having the right to vote. Although the impeachment and trial weakened him, his continuation as president helped pave the way for the emerging power of the Ku Klux Klan and the denial of rights to Blacks.

1821—The African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church is officially formed in New York City. However, the church had been actually operating since 1796. A decision to officially separate from the White-controlled Methodist Church was reached in 1820. The dispute centered in part around the refusal of Whites to allow Black ministers to preach. Among the founders were James Varnick, Abraham Thompson and June Scott. Today the denomination has an estimated 1.2 million members and operates Livingstone College in Salisbury, N.C. 1933— Legendary music composer and producer Quincy Jones is born on this day in Chicago, Ill.

1977— One of the unsung heroines of the Civil Rights Movement, Fannie Lou Hamer, died on this day in 1977. Hamer, the youngest of 20 children born in Ruleville, Miss., became active in voter registration and later became Mississippi field secretary for the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee as well as head of the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party. She also coined the phrase, “I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired.”

1897— The 55th Congress convened with one Black member remaining in the legislative body— George White of North Carolina. All the Black political progress made during Reconstruction had been snatched away after the Hayes-Tilden Compromise of 1887. By 1890 states throughout the South had effectively taken away the right of Blacks to vote with schemes ranging from literacy tests to poll taxes to Whites-only primaries. As a result Blacks were forced from elected office. When White’s term expired in 1901, there would not be another African American elected to Congress for 27 years and he would come from the North— Oscar DePriest of the Southside of Chicago (1st Congressional District of Illinois.)

The product of a wealthy French plantation owner in New Orleans and his Black mistress, Rillieux was given his freedom and sent to Paris, France, to be educated. He is best known for his invention of the “multiple evaporation process” which revolutionized the sugar and paper industries. It also saved the lives of many who had previously labored in extremely dangerous conditions. Rillieux returned to the U.S., but as conditions for free Blacks deteriorated prior to the Civil War, he went back to Paris and died there in 1894.

In 2015, 32 years after being crowned and during the Miss America 2016 pageant (where she was serving as head judge), Miss America CEO Sam Haskell apologized to Williams for what was said to her during the events of 1984.

1620 The first Black child born in America, William Tucker, was probably born on this date in Jamestown, Va. However, some controversy surrounds the exact date. What we know for sure is that he was the son of two of the first Africans brought to America as indentured servants in August 1619—Anthony (Antonio) and Isabella. We also know he was baptized on Jan. 3, 1624. Further, there is debate as to whether his last name was actually “Tucker.” It seems that many historians simply assumed that the child was given the last name of the man on whose plantation his parents worked. While this would later become the practice on many plantations, there is no documentation that Anthony and Isabella actually gave their son the last name of Tucker.

1919 Singer Nat “King” Cole is born in Montgomery, Ala. In addition to his considerable talents as a singer, Cole—the father of Natalie Cole—was the first Black American performer with his own syndicated radio program and later a network television variety show. The TV started at 15 minutes, expanded to half-an-hour, but was then dropped due to lack of White advertiser support.

are working to get fellow Blacks up to speed with financial literacy. It could be in the form of simple phone calls between friends or professional workshops. Dr. Bey, who grew up primarily in the Hill District, is more than 25 years in on her desire to improve financial literacy for fellow African Americans in Pittsburgh.

On Feb. 27, she received the Barack Obama Legacy Lifetime Achievement Award from the T.I.U.A. School of Business, based in Atlanta. On that evening, the T.I.U.A. School of Business also honored the popular and conscious rapper Killer Mike for his community efforts.

And over the past years, Dr. Bey has held graduation ceremonies for people who have completed her aforementioned “Understanding and Starting Your Business” eight-week coaching

program. The New Pittsburgh Courier attended a December 2023 ceremony held at Dr. Bey’s offices in Swissvale. Among those who completed the program were: Shatel Abram, Hope Washington, Sheila Clemons, Sadir Lee, Dianne C. Lemon and Danielle Anderson. All are Black women, many of whom are looking to take charge of their financial life, once and for all.

The eight-week program teaches cohort members credit education, financial literacy, how to start and operate a business, marketing techniques, automation principles, a proper mindset, and more.

“I was never taught about credit,” Clemons told the New Pittsburgh Courier in an exclusive interview. Clemons, now 58, said she grew up in the Hill District in low-income housing and didn’t have a two-parent household. “I’m grateful that she (Bey) has afforded the opportunity for us to learn about credit...I followed her directions to a tee on how to get an EIN (Employer Identification Number), how to work on building your credit, and what type of debit/credit cards I need. She taught me about having good, healthy credit for your business.”

FICO credit scores range from 300 to 850. Anything over 740 is considered “very good” credit, while “poor” credit is classified as 579 or below. “Good” credit starts at 670. For Clemons, four years ago, she told the Courier her credit was...after a pause...470.

Today, it’s 760.

And now, Clemons’ business, Capable Caring Hands, is up and running. She told the Courier she’s had about 15 clients since she opened, everywhere from New Kensington, to Homewood, to the North Side.

Danielle Anderson, another cohort graduate from December 2023, said she wasn’t sure how to start a business before the program. But today, she’s already received her EIN from the Internal Revenue Service. The name of her non-medical home care agency? Ella’s Love Homecare, LLC, named after Anderson’s late grandmother.

“Saloam has shared a lot of personal things as far as things she’s been through, and she wants all of us to win, especially Black women,” Anderson told the Courier exclusively. “She’s just a really positive influence.”

In 1984, when Dr. Bey

was 6 years old, her mother, Carolyn Johnson, was killed, Dr. Bey said, by her boyfriend. After things didn’t work out with her biological father, Dr. Bey told the Courier she went to live with her sister in the Hill District for most of her teenage years. She said she eventually settled with her sister into low-income housing on Burrows Street in the Hill, as she graduated from Brashear High School in 1996.

Dr. Bey said circumstances growing up made her think more independently than others her age. At 19, she began researching the ins and outs of financial literacy. Life took her to attend Pittsburgh Job Corps, and then, around age 23, she went into the Air Force. She transitioned to the Army National Guard and remained there until 2008.

Dr. Bey had always taught fellow Pittsburghers about financial literacy since after her high school days, but she also spent time living in Alexandria, Va., from 2006 to 2017. As the owner of “Credit Power, LLC,” Dr. Bey, in February 2018, held an open forum in the Hill District, and more than 100 people attended. There, individuals spoke on the importance of financial literacy, such as representatives from First National Bank, Coldwell Banker, Richard Witherspoon of the Hill District Federal Credit Union, Charlise Smith of the W.A.V.E.

That event united her with Diamonte Walker, the former Deputy Executive Director of the Urban Redevelopment Authority of Greater Pittsburgh. Impressed with her abilities and passion, the URA at the time made Dr. Bey a “technical assistant,” where the URA would refer people to Dr. Bey to learn about

everything related to credit. From the community, for the community, Dr. Bey, 46, said she feels like she’s “living a surreal life...I’m really leading by example. I really am people’s hope,” she said.

Dr. Bey has begun teaching financial literacy to kids in different schools across the city, too. She also heads to Yale University, in Connecticut, to teach students there on finances.

When it comes to the “Understanding and Starting Your Business” coaching program, Dr. Bey said there is a fee associated with being part of a cohort. Anderson told the Courier it was “a very good investment, definitely worth it.”

Arbitrator reinstates officer to the Pittsburgh Police force

Keith Edmonds to get full back pay, benefits, zero disciplinary action

FROM A1

The City of Pittsburgh fired Edmonds and three other officers in March 2022, six months after the incident that occurred on Oct. 13, 2021, when Edmonds was the first officer to respond after reports of a man on a stolen bike on Harriet Street. Edmonds ended up using his Taser on Rogers multiple times, bringing him to the ground. As other officers ultimately arrived, Rogers was placed in the back of a police vehicle and could be seen gasping for air, saying among other things that he couldn't breathe.

No medical attention was given to Rogers for more than 40 minutes after his initial arrest, and by the time two other officers, who were both White, transported Rogers to UPMC Mercy Hospital, it was, in effect, too late. Rogers died on Oct. 14.

But when the Allegheny County Medical Examiner's Office ruled in January 2022 that Rogers' death was "accidental" and not necessarily caused by the actions of the officers, the fired Pittsburgh Police officers were able to return to the force if they wanted to. However, Edmonds was not, purportedly because the city saw him as the principal figure in Rogers' apprehension and consequently, death.

The case went to arbitration. Both sides made their case—the city, and the Fraternal Order of Police, representing Edmonds.

The arbitrator, late in the afternoon on March 8, ruled in favor of Edmonds.

The Pittsburgh NAACP, in the midst of its own renaissance, immediately put out a statement condemning the arbitrator's decision. The NAACP said it was "outraged" by the reinstatement of "the officer directly responsible for the death of Jim Rogers."

The local NAACP did not specifically use Edmonds' name.

"The reinstatement of the officer directly responsible for the tragic death of Jim Rogers has sparked justified outrage and profound disappointment among us all," Pittsburgh NAACP President Daylon A. Davis wrote, provided to the Courier. "Mayor Ed Gainey moved quickly in dismissing all officers involved, offering a glimmer of justice. Yet, the reinstatement of the officer directly responsible for this tragedy is deeply troubling. It not only erodes trust within our community but also upholds a system that neglects accountability, especially among those tasked with protecting and serving. Such a decision devalues Black lives, reducing them to mere financial sums. Regrettably, it seems the price tag of taking this Black man’s life has been valued at eight million dollars this time."

Davis continued: "The persistent absence of empathy exhibited by individuals in positions of authority, alongside prosecutorial determinations made by Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen A. Zappala Jr., neglect to acknowledge the severity of the circumstances. Such actions serve to exacerbate the anguish and inequity experienced by Black people and the family of Jim Rogers, as well as our wider community. We cannot overlook the fact that accountability is essential in upholding the principles of justice and ensuring the safety and well-being of all members of our society. The lack thereof for Black people in Allegheny County, especially in cases as egregious as this one, only continues to erode any confidence we might have in our law enforcement institutions. Our hearts go out to the family

Since December 2023, the weekly YouTube-based podcast has been hosting culturally relevant conversations from a spiritual perspective.

Goldman, who is a Black woman, is the face and voice behind the new venture for Cornerstone TV, based in Wall, Pa.

To see the weekly program and catch past episodes, just visit youtube. com/cornerstonetelevision. New episodes are released Wednesdays at 3 p.m. on YouTube.

“It’s always been a dream for me to bring a faith-infused, fresh perspective of what’s happening in our world and culture,” stated Goldman. “As a millennial, I feel a lot of these conversations and

topics—centered around ‘what people are talking about,’ how the world is changing, and even the movements and subcultures that exist within my generation—are missing from mainstream Christian media.”

Goldman graduated from Temple University, and has worked at NBC affiliates in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. She most recently was the host of Cornerstone TV’s “Hope Today.”

In the most recent episode, March 6, Goldman discussed the topic, “Discovering Authenticity In the Midst of Vulnerability.” Goldman’s guest was Pastor Dionne Edmonds, a well-known figure in Pittsburgh for her teachings and mentorship of both women and men. She is also the wife of Macedonia Church of Pittsburgh Senior Pastor Brian Edmonds.

“When we are willing

discover the new power of myPerks

“When we are willing to own and name our weaknesses, it becomes the doorway for the Holy Spirit to partner with us to show us His strength and His power.”

to own and name our weaknesses, it becomes the doorway for the Holy Spirit to partner with us to show us His strength and His power,” Pastor Dionne Edmonds said on the show. Pastor Dionne Edmonds and Goldman had a heart-to-heart conversation about authenticity, vulnerability and going through the ups and downs of life.

“Part of thriving is learning that as we connect to God authentically and as we are more vulnerable with him,” Pastor Dionne Edmonds said, “we allow the Kingdom of God to break in through our messy, disgusting, broken situations.”

Pastor Dionne Edmonds

continued: “As this exchange is happening, He’s trading my weaknesses for His strength, so in the midst of the depression or the divorce, or the drug addiction, I might still be in that situation, but I’m able to then operate with the power and an authority that is not of my own doing.”

Other previous episodes of Goldman’s podcasts dealt with “The Push for Chaplains in Public Schools,” “Building Capacity for your Path of Purpose,” and “Doubting Christianity: The Truth Behind Jesus’ Resurrection.”

CAITLIN CLARK...YES! BUT HERE’S WHAT THE LEGENDS SAY!

:10 If you’ve been following me over the last few weeks, you know that I’ve made a few things absolutely clear. #1. I love women; #2 I love women’s basketball; and #3 I have great respect and admiration for Caitlin Clark, the scoring machine out of Iowa. And the all-time leading scorer in NCAA basketball history after passing “Pistol Pete” Maravich, eclipsing his 3,667 points with her new record of 3,702 and counting. She also has 55 30-point games, 17 triple doubles, and she needs under 200 points to pass Pearl Moore, who scored 3,884 at Francis Marion College (1975-1979) to set the overall AIAW record before the NCAA began governing women’s athletics. Clark is averaging 32.3 per game, with 12 40-point games. She has declared herself eligible for the WNBA next season.

:09—But hold on, wait a minute. Let’s be reminded of several people who, for whatever reason, have been lost in time or simply, possibly innocently overlooked: Lynette Woodard, Pearl Moore, Kelsey Plum and others.

:08—Having said that, allow me to remind you once again about the great and legendary “Pistol Pete” Maravich! And for a few reasons. First of all, he’s homegrown, “STRAIGHT OUTTA-ALIQUIPPA, PA.”

Secondly, there’s a reason his record has stood for 54 years. Simply put, who he was and what he did was unbelievable. Obviously a great high school player with legendary tales of him dribbling the basketball leaning out the car window while his dad drove the car, or his playing at night in pitch black dark to be in absolute control of the ball.

But it was at LSU where the legend took on enormous proportions. :07—So, unless you’ve been under a proverbial basketball rock, you know he didn’t play as a freshman due to the then-NCAA rules. But, did you know in his first game as a freshman against the varsity team, he scored 42 points? By now you know he averaged 44.2 points a game in his three-year college career. But there was no 3-point shot! OK, maybe you didn’t hear me. While playing Division I basketball at LSU in the highly competitive Southeastern Conference, the man is going to get 44 a game and there was nothing a scouting report could do about it. You can Google the rest of his 10 pages of records. Neither time nor space will allow me to do so now. :06—So, as a sidebar and a flashback, I am fortunate and privileged to tell you that when at my alma mater, Slippery Rock University, at the time the only sport that I cared about was football. It was the late summer of 1970 that I was introduced to the game of basketball by “Rock Legends” Ron Hunt and Jeff Lake that began my obsession with basketball for life! Oh, the memories of the good ole days. (Needless to say, I know you don’t really care about this part, but it’s my column, so you just have to shut up and take the bitter with the sweet.) Anyway...that being said, and watch how I tie this all together. Had it not been for my newfound obsession, I would have never volunteered to work the youth basketball camp held at the historic Morrow Field House on campus in the summer of “71” when “Pistol Pete” Maravich was

the special guest. (It’s important to point out, in case you’re wondering, how and why Pete was at the Rock. It’s because during that decade, Slippery Rock had one of the greatest basketball teams in the nation, and under the direction of Coach Mel Hankinson had great respect and numerous NAIA Division II Championships!) Now, if you would just let me finish...of course the Pistol put on a great shooting exhibition with all the drills and thrills. But what I will never forget is how he concluded his demonstration by putting five 50 cent pieces on the back of his hand, tossing them in the air and then snatching each one at a time in mid-air. It mystified everyone, especially the young campers. But most importantly, spoke to his quickness and hand/eye coordination. :05—Get to it Neal, will ya! OK, OK, just relax. So to my point, given all her recent accomplishments, we applaud Caitlin Clark and give her all her props. But before you put her on the same basketball pedestal with Pete, here’s a few things you need to know about “Pistol Pete Maravaich!” • Named College Player of the Year in 1970.

• Did not play varsity ball his freshman year due to the NCAA rule at the time.

• Even still, is the all-time leading NCAA Division I scorer with 3,667 points.

• That was accomplished

before the adoption of the three-point line and 24 second shot clock. • His per game average was 44.2 points. • He scored 60 or more points four times with the highest being 69 against Alabama. Yeah, I got your “Roll Tide” right here! • It is estimated that had there been a 3-point shot when he played, he would have averaged 54 points a game! • As a freshman and a part of the LSU Freshman Team that went undefeated in 19 games, Pete averaged 40 points, 12 rebounds and 9 assists per game. • Had there been a 3-point shot, it is estimated he would have scored over 4,000 points. To cap it off, the great Julius “Dr. J.” Erving said the number one guy he trained with in the summer to get ready for the season was Maravich. “He had unlimited range... stealing the ball was nearly impossible...and people forget Pete was 6’5” and would cross me up and dunk on me!”

:04—After a not so super NBA career with the Atlanta Hawks, New Orleans Jazz, and the Boston Celtics, Maravich died in 1988 at the too young age of 40, playing pick-up basketball, his light shining much too bright and ahead of the game in his 10-year pro career.

:03—To put things in perspective, I went to our area basketball greats and scoring legends to get their opinion on lighting it up! And who they thought were the greatest. #1. Jennifer Bruce, Pgh. City League Carrick H.S., City League Hall of Fame, Connie Hawkins League Hall of Fame, former all-time leading scorer for both Pitt men and women, Big East Hall of Fame, an automatic WNBA star had the timing

been sooner, total NCAA points 2,295, most points in a game 37, scoring average 24 ppg. Big props and great respect for Caitlin Clark and Lynette Woodard—her

top 5 scorers are LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Caitlin Clark, Lynette Woodard, and Steph Curry. #2. Baron B.B. Flenory—Sports Illustrated featured star, 83 points scored in middle school, Valley H.S. legend, ranked top 75 players in PA H.S. history, ranked top 100 Duquesne University all time players with 1,382 points—309 assists and only player to lead the Dukes in scoring and assists 3 consecutive seasons, scored 50-plus twice in H.S., once in college. Drafted by Boston Celtics, won a championship in Venezuela—his top 5 scorers are Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Pete Maravich, Calvin Murphy, Wilt Chamberlain/Dan Issel. #3. Myron Brown—AKA “Flyin” Myron Brown, two-time CBA Slam Dunk Champion, McKees Rocks H.S. basketball star, Slippery Rock University Hall of Fame, all-time leading scorer, voted most dominant player in PSAC History with a conference record of 2,619 career points, 23 points per game scoring average, 133 steals—299 assists—760 rebounds, drafted by the Minnesota Timberwolves of the NBA, great European career in Italy, most points in a college game 51, 70 points in Ormsby Park City League Summer Tournament, Connie Hawkins League Hall of Fame. His top 5 scorers are Michael Jordan, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Pete Maravich, George Gervin, Bernard King. #4. Bobby Franklin—Ohio H.S. Basketball Hall of Fame, rated all-time great player in Ohio, Point Park

University all-time leading scorer, Connie Hawkins Summer League Hall of Fame 2020 total points, average 20 points per game, game high 25 points. The great Norm Nixon of the NBA LA Lakers said, “Bobby Franklin should be in the NBA!” His top 5 scorers are Wilt Chamberlain, Oscar “Big O” Robinson, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Caitlin Clark. #5. Larry Baxter—Harrisburg H.S. double sport man, basketball and track, opted out of a bona fide spot on the Slippery Rock basketball team to pursue a nationally ranked track career, inches away from the Olympic team in the triple jump, held the Div. II state and Slippery Rock record 49 ft. 2 in. His top 5 scorers are Julius “Dr. J.” Erving, Connie Hawkins (Note: not how many he scored but the way he scored), Pete Maravich, Earl Monroe and George “The Iceman” Gervin.

The King is alive. Long live the King, Bill Hillgrove

On April 8, 2023, I wrote an article profiling the great Pittsburgh sportscaster Bill Hillgrove. The following excerpt is from that article. “There may be others, but Bill Hillgrove has been the voice of three sports institutions.

The Pittsburgh Steelers and both the University of Pittsburgh men’s football and basketball programs for many years. He is unlike many folks who may have a limited impact on whatever life’s work they choose; this legendary radio and television broadcaster is and has always been far from being a ‘onetrick pony.’”

I also wrote: “Bill Hillgrove is a rare triple-threat broadcaster who oftentimes uses his unique voice to describe the game for listeners as if it were an intimate operatic performance held in the privacy of their living rooms with his richly-layered and multi-timbered voice serving him as if he were a conductor wielding a baton. During his 55 years as a radio and television broadcaster, he has been the “voice of consistency,” a voice that has consoled Pittsburghers when they lost, celebrated with them when they won,

never abandoning them and choosing to ride the roller coaster of athletic incompetency and poor performances along with them through times both good and bad.” There was no indication from him that less than a year after that article was written, Hillgrove would step out of the Pittsburgh Steelers broadcasting booth for good. However, on Feb. 29, the weight of that triple crown was considerably lightened when Hillgrove gave up his duty as the voice of the Pittsburgh Steelers. One of the questions that was not asked in the 2023 interview was: what was the most memorable game or games that he called? Recently, Hillgrove talked about those memories. “Well, there are two games,” he says. “There’s one for Pitt and one for the Steelers. The game for Pitt would be Tony Dorsett, breaking Archie Griffin’s rushing record in 1976. And he couldn’t have chosen a better venue than the Navy-Marin Corps Stadium. It was an emotional moment because they only fire that Navy cannon for the Mids (midshipmen) but suddenly when he hit

the end zone, they fired the cannon in tribute. And I started to get emotional and then his parents came out of the stands and walked around the field and as they passed every section, including where the Mids were, they all doffed their caps. It was emotional and I lost it, I couldn’t talk. And I looked at Johnny Sauer, the color analyst and he was in the same place. He had tears streaming down his cheeks. You realize you’re seeing a once-in-a-lifetime athlete.”

As for the Steelers, it’s easy, Super Bowl 43. Larry Fitzgerald scores, runs by Troy, and gets into the end zone, with two minutes and change remaining. The Steelers get the ball and they have a holding call right away, so they’re in a hole.

But at that moment, I think Ben Roethlisberger showed that he is Hall of Fame material because

every pass on that series was on a Steeler player’s hands, including the one in the left side of the end zone, which San Antonio Holmes probably should have caught, but then went right back to him on the right side of the end zone. And to me, that was as good as it gets.”

Hillgrove also talked about the difficulty and dynamics in terms of the travel accommodations needed for him to be the voice of both teams.

“Yeah, as far as travel is concerned, it’s become increasingly difficult not just with TSA, but also what’s happened with commercial airlines. Commercial air transportation is not nearly as dependable as it used to be. There used to be eight flights a day from Pittsburgh to Baltimore. Now there may be two. You just don’t have the options, especially on weekends. So last year, because the Steelers made West Coast trips and the trip to Las Vegas, and Houston, I was on the Steelers charter. I wasn’t taking any chances trying to get from point A to point B, so I think I missed four Pitt games last year. But I always said early in the process that Mister Rooney,

who passed in 1988. And my dad, who passed the same year, they were up there looking over the travel schedule making sure I got from point A to point B.”

As far as Bill Hillgrove Jr. taking the same career path as his father, Bill Hillgrove Sr. says that might not happen. “No, no, he he’s a spotter,” Hillgrove says. “Now his son, Jack is an on-air type and he’s been in the booth since he was 8 years old. He knows the dynamics of that. And he’s now the weekend sports anchor of Channel 9 Steubenville. He told me when he was 14, he goes Pap, I wanna do what you do, he’s going be great.”

The late great John Clayton once said, “Listening to Bill Hillgrove call a game could almost convince anyone to become a Steelers fan.” Bill Hillgrove takes all compliments with humility and grace saying: “I am blessed to be doing games for teams I grew up rooting for. I never had to leave, knock on wood. And the passion is genuine. It’s natural and you can always tell that I’m a Pittsburgh guy.”

Bill Hillgrove also ad-

dressed difficult issues in football such as free agency. “There was a time when you were a Pittsburgh Steeler for life. That completely changed with free agency, but I will say this about the Rooney family and the way they’ve handled free agency. They’ve handled it as well as anybody, but I think I can count on one hand the mistakes that they have made in the process. One would be letting Chad Brown get away to Seattle. They didn’t know that Greg Lloyd was going to get hurt. And I think the other would be Rod Woodson. He was going to move inside to safety and he wanted outside money. He still had a lot of gas left in the tank and I think the Steelers letting him go was also a mistake. But other than that, they haven’t made too many.” Make no mistake about it, ladies, and gents. Don’t expect Bill Hillgrove to ride off into the sunset of a nursing home because he will continue to call Pitt football and men’s basketball games and based on his past, he may be leaving all of us behind as he rides into the sunrise of the rest of his career and his life.

In the realm of real estate entrepreneurship, where property acquisition is paramount and financial agility is key, a groundbreaking tool has emerged the Debt Service Coverage (DSCR) loan. This financial instrument is not merely another option in the array of mortgage products; it is a transformative force, empowering real estate entrepreneurs to seize opportunities and propel their ventures to new heights.

DSCR loans, also recognized as investor cash flow loans, represent a paradigm shift in mortgage lending. Unlike traditional

home loans that heavily rely on borrower income, DSCR loans harness the power of a property’s cash flow as the primary qualifier. For astute investors, this means liberation from the constraints of personal income verification, opening doors to a realm of possibilities.

Primarily favored by real estate investors, DSCR loans offer unparalleled flexibility in property acquisition strategies. Whether one aims to venture into the lucrative domain of vacation rentals, diversify with multifamily dwellings, or delve into other investment properties, DSCR loans provide the financial backbone needed for success. These loans are tailored to properties valued for their income-generating potential, recognizing the intrinsic value beyond mere bricks and mortar.

Crucially, DSCR loans fall under the category of non-Qualified Mortgage (QM) loans, eliminating the burdensome process of proving personal income. Instead, they pivot decisively towards evaluating the property’s revenue generating capacity. This shift in focus not only streamlines the lending process but also aligns perfectly with the ethos of real estate entrepreneurship valuing assets based on their income potential.

The mechanics of DSCR loans are elegantly simple yet profoundly effective. Calculated by dividing a property’s net operating income by its total debt service, these loans provide a clear metric for evaluating investment viability. Total debt service encapsulates principal, interest, and

Navy federal class action lawsuit brings calls for investigations

A mortgage discrimination case that began with two plaintiffs last December was consolidated in late February with seven others to form a class action lawsuit alleging that Navy Federal Credit Union—the nation’s largest with 13.4 million members and $170.8 billion in assets—“systematically and intentionally discriminates against minority borrowers across the United States.”

The lawsuit alleges that Navy Federal, which serves current and former military members from all service sectors, denied loans for 52 percent of Black borrowers and 44 percent of Latino borrowers, while denying only 23 percent of White applicants for home mortgage purchase or refinance loans and Home Equity Lines of Credit.

Affidavits of affected borrowers told stories of the financial and emotional distressed caused by qualified loan applicants having to find alternative—and often more costly—financing after being denied by their member-owned credit union.

The lawsuit, led by nationally-known attorney Ben Crump and his associate Adam Levitt, said the lender’s own data show that

my fourth question, she asked me if this was a financial planning session or a counseling session? We both laughed. When doing a comprehensive financial coaching session, my first five questions were as follows:

• What prompted you to reach out to me to schedule a financial coaching session?

• What are your financial goals?

• What are your financial concerns?

• Financially speaking, are you where you want to be? Without fail, the answer is no. The real question behind this question is:

• Financially speaking, in your own words, what do you think is holding you back?

Navy Federal approved loans for a higher percentage of white borrowers annually earning less than $62,000 a year than for Black loan applicants earning $140,000 or more.    And when Navy Federal did approve a loan to a Black or Latino applicant, they often were offered worst interest rates and loan terms than those offered to white borrowers with similar financial profiles. These activities are illegal under federal laws, including the Fair Housing Act and Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA).

I ask these questions before I delve into the numbers because I’m trying to better understand their money psychology. If I can understand what motivates them, what scares them, and what their self-proclaimed bad money habits are, I’m more aptly prepared to address the personal side of personal finances. Money isn’t just about numbers and transactions; it’s deeply intertwined with our emotions, beliefs, and behaviors. Understanding the psychology behind our financial decisions can help us navigate our relationship with money more effectively. From working to spending, saving, giving, and investment habits, our financial mindset influences every aspect of our financial lives.

In this article, we delve into the psychology of money to help you gain insights into your financial behaviors and attitudes.

The Influence of Childhood Experiences: Our attitudes toward money often stem from our childhood experiences. Observing how our parents managed money, their attitudes toward spending and saving, and the financial struggles or successes they en-

“We hope this legal action will stop racial lending discrimination in its tracks and require Navy Federal to right their wrongs,” said Adam Levitt. “Home ownership is recognized as the cornerstone of the American Dream. We will not sit by while that dream is denied to

countered can shape our own financial mindset. For instance, if we grew up in a household where money was tight, we might develop a scarcity mindset, always fearing a lack of resources. Conversely, those raised in financially secure environments may be more comfortable taking risks with their money. Growing up with a single mom on a fixed income, I loathed at the fact that we had to wait an entire month to get a paycheck. My mother was paid on the 1st of the month, broke by the 5th of the month. We lived the rest of the month with too much month left at the end of the money. My childhood experience inspired me to create multiple streams of income as an adult so that I never had to wait a month or even two weeks for my next paycheck. Can you think of a childhood experience that has influenced your money psychology as an adult?

Money Scripts: Money scripts are unconscious beliefs or attitudes about money that individuals develop early in life, often influenced by their childhood experiences, family dynamics, cultural background, and societal messages about money. These scripts shape how people think, feel, and behave regarding their finances. These scripts can be categorized into

hard-working and deserving Americans based on discriminatory practices and algorithms.”   Navy Federal said in a December 2023 statement that its  more than $3.5 billion in mortgages to Black borrowers in 2022 shows its “longstanding commitment to expanding credit and economic opportunity to Black borrowers.”

But the number of people calling to hold Navy Federal accountable is growing, and now includes civil rights activist Rev. Al Sharpton, 10 U.S. Senators, over 20 Members of Congress, consumer advocates and others.  Congresswoman Maxine Waters, Ranking Member of the House Financial Services Committee called for federal agencies to begin investigations.

“Credit unions are owned by their members and while this type of discrimination may be par for the course for a profit-driven megabank, a member-driven credit union should know better,” said Waters.

“As a private institution that bears the name of an esteemed branch of the United States military, Navy Federal must explain both to Con-

four main types:

• Money Avoidance: Money is inherently bad. It’s a source of anxiety and fear.

• Money Worship: Money will solve all my problems and bring happiness and fulfillment.

• Money Status: My self-worth is determined by social status, possessions and net worth.

• Money Vigilance: Tend to be secretive and cautious discussing money. Think it’s impolite to talk about money for fear of being judged.

Understanding our money scripts can shed light on our financial behaviors and help us challenge unhelpful beliefs. Do any of these money scripts apply to you?

Emotions and Money: Emotions play a significant role in our financial decision-making. Happiness, sadness, anger, love, jealousy, guilt, pride, greed and envy can all impact how we manage our money. For instance, we spend more than we have when we feel less than others. Fear of loss may prevent us from taking necessary risks for financial growth. Greed can lead to impulsive buying and risky investment decisions. Love will make you spend blindly. Sadness can lead to shop therapy. Pride will encourage you to keep

The master of business administration (MBA) has become one of the most popular and prestigious graduate degrees. Harvard established the first modern MBA program over 100 years ago. Other universities soon followed, offering their own graduate-level business programs.

Then and now, most MBA programs take two years to complete. However, this timeline varies depending on the program and other factors, such as if you choose to study online or in-person, or full-time or part-time.

You’ll need a bachelor’s degree to enter most graduate-level programs. To earn an MBA, most—but not all—schools require students to take either the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) or the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT).

The academic curriculum for an MBA usually includes courses in accounting, marketing, organizational behavior, leadership, and business ethics. Business schools also sometimes require stu-

dents to have 2-3 years of work experience. Applicants must submit a resume, letters of recommendation, and a personal statement.

WHY DO PEOPLE CHOOSE THIS DE-

GREE?

Individuals pursue MBAs to unlock career opportunities and increase their earning potential. John Marsh, an associate professor and associate dean for faculty at the

College of Business at the University of Mary Washington, said some people choose to pursue an MBA earlier in their careers “because they expect that eventually, they will need it and that classes will be

easier to manage when they are younger.” Some people find that an MBA puts them in a better position for career advancement.

PROPERTY IS POWER! DSCR Loans: A game-changer

taxes and insurance.

While the benefits of DSCR loans are undeniable, they come with a set of requirements tailored to ensure prudent lending practices:

• A minimum credit score of 600.

• A down payment ranging from 10 percent to 25 percent of the purchase price demonstrates commitment and mitigates risk.

• Purchase or refinance options cater to diverse investment strategies.

• A steady income ensures stability and reliability.

• Sufficient equity in the property safeguards against market fluctuations.

• Fixed rate loan type provides stability and predictability in repayment.

• No prepayment penalty encourages proactive debt management, en-

abling investors to capitalize on opportunities for early repayment.

In the dynamic landscape of real estate entrepreneurship, where agil-

ity and foresight reign supreme, the advent of DSCR loans marks a pivotal moment. It is not merely a mortgage product; it is a catalyst for transformation, a conduit for realizing ambitious visions, and a testament to the adage that in property, power is paramount. As real estate entrepreneurs embrace the potential of DSCR loans, they embark on a journey towards unparalleled prosperity and success.

Women’s History Month 2024

“We’ve come a long way, baby” is a phrase that was popular years ago. It was a Virginia Slims cigarette ad that targeted women and alluded to the changing status of women in American society.

Not too long-ago women were treated as second-class citizens. It’s surprising that so many people today don’t remember those days. There was a time when women were not able to do a lot of what is taken for granted now.

Back in the day, women were not allowed to buy property on their own; they were encouraged to get married and have their husbands take care of all important matters. Women could not wear pants, and very few of them worked outside the home. They were not generally seen in any of the political halls of power and good jobs were usually off limits to them.

There is at least one sitcom from the 1950s that provided a humorous depiction of this situation: The “I Love Lucy Show.”

This program featured Lucille Ball, her husband Desi Arnaz, and their family interactions, which usually turned out to be hilarious. Basically, Lucy was the housewife who took her duties seriously, and any money she needed was given to her by her husband as an allowance. Many of the show’s episodes focused on Lucy and her humorous attempts to finagle money from her husband because she always ended up overspending.

Women today have a very different situation. Many of them work outside the home and more are ascending to the sacred halls of power. Today they are CEOs of major corporations and are prominently represented in government positions. They are running for president of the U.S. and are achieving in every endeavor imaginable. Yet, the battle has not totally been won.

In America, the entire month of March has been set aside to honor the contributions of women. Originally, it started off as International Women’s Day, commemorated on March 8, when, in 1908, women marched for voting and working rights. Today, the celebration is a month long, and women have made incredible strides, but there is room for more, much more!

The Black family is now in the throes of a particularly peculiar situation that places an extra burden on the role women must play. They are faced with acting as heads of households because it is said that over 70 percent of all Black children are raised in fatherless homes.

Once upon a time, women were considered to be the “weaker sex,” but arguably, as a result of the gains they have made, that is no longer the dominant perception. Women are taking their places besides men to help to ensure community success.

Though women have indeed come a long way, there is still more distance to cover.

For example, the United States has not yet drummed up the nerve to seriously consider electing a woman president. Admittedly, it appears we are moving closer toward that goal!

Women have made progress, a lot of it, and this can’t help but bode well for our lives in America and around the world. Women, in spite of some lingering barriers, are excelling in almost every field. This includes making inroads in science, engineering, philosophy, politics, industry and more. Women are responsible for some incredible inventions and innovations that are helping to make all of our lives better.

Admittedly, there are men who remain reluctant to embrace feminine leadership, but this is to be expected. Change always requires some level of adjustment. But it can’t be doubted that today, a woman’s place is not just “barefoot and pregnant, in the home,” it is wherever she wants to be!

In this regard, the world will be a better place because of this; after all, “women hold up half the sky,” as the saying goes. And to be sure, the women of the “I Love Lucy” era would barely recognize the world today as it relates to women’s liberation, and that’s a good thing. It indicates progress for us all. A Luta Continua. (Reprinted from the Chicago Crusader)

(TriceEdneyWire.com)— To add insult to injury, I heard a MAGA man say America is a joke after he had one time served as America’s President and could have fixed whatever he thought was wrong! Instead, he created a lot of problems!  Wasn’t he the man who claims to have done so much for Americans?  To his credit he didn’t say what he did was good or bad—but we Black people know the answer and would not be moved to his corner for a pair of strange gold sneakers with a big “T” on them—not when we Black people have the best sneakers with names like Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and many others.  We are so proud of the other names on sneakers, and it’s not just Black people’s names are on them!

At any rate, when I heard Charles Barkely’s statement about Black people wearing Trump’s mug shot merchandise as “freaking idiots”, and he should punch them. I am not a violent person, but I sure could understand what he meant.  He admittedly clarified that what he meant when he said that he was not happy when Trump compares his plight with that of Black

NNPA NEWSWIRE — Political provocateurs are determined to stir up controversy over Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s failure to tell President Biden about his treatment for prostate cancer. Yet, his desire to keep the matter private—and out of the public eye—is in line with what many men, particularly men of color, have done for decades. The reticence to share details of a medical condition is understandable, but prostate cancer is a silent killer in the Black community and the time has come to give it a voice.

In the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose son Dexter recently passed from prostate cancer, I ask: How long? How long will Men of color suffer in silence and die alone? How long will too many brothers hide their plight?

When he finally commented publicly about his condition, Austin offered regrets about keeping silent and then made an important pledge. He said that by not initially disclosing his diagnosis, he “missed an opportunity to send a message on an important public health issue,” while noting the prevalence of prostate cancer, particularly among Black men. Encouraging all men to get screened, Austin promised, “You can count on me to set a better example on this issue today and for the rest of my life.”

Any cancer diagnosis is a private matter. But men like Dexter King and Austin can help so many others who are prone to prostate cancer. Keeping the surgery and treatment a secret would only have continued to add to the stigma surrounding prostate

(TriceEdneyWire.com)—Imagine the neighborhood your family has lived in for more than 150 years being turned into a deteriorating flood zone. Now imagine the flooding was caused by the state. That is what is happening to the people of Elba, Alabama’s historic Black Shiloh community.

Thanks to the construction of an elevated highway through the community in 2018, residents are watching their homes be destroyed by flooding caused by the highway project.

“My house has already sunk two feet into the mud. I see my inheritance and my childrens’ American Dream being washed away and stolen,” says Pastor Timothy Williams.  Pastor Williams is a reverend and the owner of a restaurant and cleaning business. Like many other Shiloh residents, his family has been on this land dating back to Reconstruction. Now he and others in the community see their generational wealth disappearing before their eyes from property devaluation as well as the physical destruction of their homes.

Just eight feet away from Pastor Williams’ home, in the direction it is sinking, is a Southeast Gas Company natural gas pipeline. He has been told there is a possibility the sinking house could hit the gas line and blow the house up.

Pastor Williams’ story offers but a glimpse into the nightmare Shiloh residents are facing.

Part of the highway project—one of the earliest phases—involved directing stormwater drainage pipes into the community. Now, picture the elevated highway essentially placing the neighborhood in a bowl. There did not used to be flooding. Now it is rampant. And the state will not even own up to its highway expansion being the cause.

In addition to causing floods, the highway also cut off access to the

people.  He said that is what he had a problem with.  I did, too, and so did a lot of other Black people. Sneakers nor Trump tee shirts will get a vote from Black people I know! The good part about the State of the Union speech of President Joe Biden is that he clarified why sensible people of all races should be supporting him even with the mistakes he’s made.  President Biden gave a master class in reasons the MAGA folk don’t stand a chance when it comes to positive accomplishments for all the people.  To mention a few things, he truthfully told us that since he’s been President inflation has gone down. The price of gasoline has gone down. He supports the right of women to control our own body. He has forgiven student loans. He respects the rights of minori-

cancer. That would have been a disservice to the thousands of men of color diagnosed annually.

Indeed, data from Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City shows that more than 13 percent of African American men between the ages 45 and 79 will develop prostate cancer in their lifetimes. And Black men have a 70 percent higher rate of developing prostate cancer than White men. The American Cancer Society also shockingly predicts that Black men are more than twice as likely to die from prostate cancer than their White counterparts.

These figures are appalling when considering that prostate cancer is one of the most treatable forms of the disease with the five-year survival rate for men diagnosed with it being greater than 99 percent if the cancer is detected during the early stage.

While there are numerous reasons for why this disparity between Black and White men exists—decades of structural racism, environmental issues, certain comorbidities, different molecular pathways in the body of Black men—a great deal of the reason comes down to the fact that Black men are disproportionately not being screened for prostate cancer as early or as regularly as White men.

A recent study published in JAMA Oncology by a team at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center found that Black men get fewer PSA (prostate specific antigen) screenings; they are more likely to be diagnosed with later stage cancer; they are less likely to have health insurance; and they have less access to high-quality care and other disparities that can be linked to a lower overall socioeco-

He kept Obama Care alive and is working to improve it. He stood up for Ukraine. He promised success on the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. He hasn’t raped any women. He hasn’t tried to take more money from us by trying to sell us tacky sneakers claiming we’ll vote for him because Black people love sneakers! He doesn’t have 90+ charges that keep him going to Court more often than he spends time working for the people. He’s made health care cheaper.  He’s bringing down the high cost of late fees on credit cards. He supports Unions and is the first President to go on a picket line to support hard working people.

nomic status.

Given his platform as Secretary of Defense, I am happy that Austin recognized his duty to be open and honest about his battle with this disease. And in doing so, he now joins groups and individuals who are already working on spreading awareness for prostate screenings who can act as guideposts.

For example, Mount Sinai Medical Center recently unveiled the Robert F. Smith Mobile Prostate Cancer Screening Unit, which will visit New York City neighborhoods where men could be at a higher risk of developing prostate cancer.  The mobile home sized bus is named after the African American philanthropist and venture capitalist who donated almost $4 million to launch the program. Smith, who has led many philanthropic endeavors aimed at supporting the African-American community, obviously realizes that it takes a preemptive approach to combat the scourge of prostate cancer by going directly into the communities most affected by the disease. In announcing the prostate screening initiative, Smith tied it to larger inequities in our society that leave African Americans behind. “It’s unconscionable that in our great country and at this moment of technological breakthrough, Black Americans are still subject to staggeringly worse health outcomes,” he said. “We can fix this.”

Thankfully there are individuals like Smith and now Austin to use their platforms to spread awareness for this deadly – yet very treatable – form of cancer and ensure that more people don’t die needlessly.

neighborhood’s only fire hydrant.

In 2020, there was a fire. Someone burned to death in their home. Residents believe their neighbor’s death would have been preventable with access to the hydrant.

This is not merely an example of poorly executed urban planning. It is reckless environmental racism. The same kind that has been responsible for creating so-called “sacrifice zones” across the country. Sacrifice zones are populated areas that bear a disproportionate brunt of health and environmental hazards due to their close proximity to sources of pollution and development. They are most often communities of color and low-income communities.

Residents of the Shiloh community are educated … they are business owners … many of them are veterans. They have advantages that people in some other neighborhoods sacrificed to development do not have. But simply by speaking up and advocating for themselves, Shiloh residents have become targets of racist hate. There have been incidents of racial harassment ever since the community started receiving news coverage of their plight. A chilling reminder of what white supremacy looks like in the deep South.    Pastor Williams has seen it firsthand. His restaurant’s clientele is mostly white. One customer told him that he and others had been told to boycott the eatery because Williams had been vocal about the crisis facing the Shiloh community. Elba, Alabama also happens to be

the hometown of Dr. Robert Bullard. Dr. Bullard is known as the “Father of Environmental Justice.” He literally wrote the book—actually many books, including one titled “Highway Robbery”—on environmental racism. And his extensive scholarship has earned him a spot on the White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council.

Now, Elba has become a textbook example of the environmental harm of racist zoning and transportation policies Dr. Bullard has taught so many of us about. More than a mere twist of cosmic irony, it shows how pervasive the problem of environmental racism is—that the hometown of our nation’s great warrior for Environmental Justice, who has helped countless people and communities, is still vulnerable to its impacts.

Ultimately, the Alabama Department of Transportation and Governor Kay Ivey are the ones who have the ability and responsibility to fix it and compensate the community’s residents for all they have lost. So far all they have done is deny wrongdoing and dupe Shiloh residents into signing away their rights.

An ABC News investigation found the state “used an aggressive legal tool to prevent the residents—and future owners of their land—from the possibility of holding the state government accountable through the court system.” Pastor Williams and several other residents received settlements of $5,000 or less that the governor herself signed off on.

Dr. Bullard has said he hopes 2024 will be the year for justice for Shiloh. As Pastor Williams and others from the community continue to sound the alarm and raise awareness, all of us should be joining them.

CINCINNATI HERALD — Does America have a race problem? Is systemic racism permeating every fiber of the socioeconomic, sociopolitical institutions of America? Are race-based theories, particularly the Critical Race Theory, liberal extremism, or is it a reality that remains unacknowledged – the big grey elephant always in the room?

Answers trending from conservative Republican majorities grant us some perspective. Racism does not exist. And if history is properly presented, it never existed.

Gov. Ron DeSantis (R.Fla.) signed into law a bill that bans initiatives on diversity, equity and inclusion. He viewed them as discriminatory practices. This was in April 2023. In May, Gov. Greg Abbott (R.Tx.) followed suit with legislation that shuttered all DEI initiatives. A June 2023 SCOTUS decision gutted Affirmative Action.

A July Harvard Business Review article, “Why Companies Can – and Should— Recommit to DEI in the Wake of the SCOTUS Decision” debunks a myth.    African Americans have been the face of Affirmative Action. The article by Tina Ople and Ella F. Washington, reveals that White women benefited the greater from Affirmative Action policies.

America has a proclivity for scapegoating African Americans. Ronald Reagan’s fictitious Cadillac Welfare Queen pictured Blacks as milking the Welfare System. When in fact, Whites were the greater number on the welfare rolls.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is the latest boogeyman. DEI is about promoting awareness of our differences, addressing structural inequalities, and creating an environment of community and respect for human differences and social identities.

Opponents portray an ominous goal of DEI.

More than 20 states have a combined 50 bills pending or signed into law that restrict or eliminate DEI programs. They purport to protect First Amendment free speech and shield potential employees and students from coercive practices. They are forced to align with divisive, discriminatory policies of DEI initiatives, they assert.

Legislators take the floor and pontificate destruction to our democratic system of government. Some draw analogies to Marxism and Communism. There is no mention of the centuries long system of chattel slavery or the decades of codified discrimination that fostered the inequities that must be righted.

According to Acts 17:26, God made every nation and people from one bloodline. “And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on the face of the earth.”

But we are different. We were made that way. We process our experiences differently and come up with perspectives influenced by our experiences. In our nation of Christian leadership, this “great melting pot” of democracy, those differences should not erect invisible fences that keep us opposed to the goodwill of one another. The truth should tear down the fences and set us free.

We cannot deny the interconnectedness of the past and the present. We cannot deny America’s history and its imprint on the discord in our society, the imbalance in our economy, and the ambiance of conflicted dysfunction in government – state and federal.

Conservative legislatures move to prohibit the inclusion of African/African American history in academic curriculum. Native American history is equally shunned.

African American history and Native American history is American history; however, the amalgamated and comfortable version legislators prefer castrates our experiences and insults our heritage.

The genesis of the opposition is that Whites should not experience guilt when learning about history. That’s a misappropriation of guilt. Knowledge of the past bears no guilt; it could lead to shame, and shame spurs corrective action to ensure that mistakes are not repeated.

Erasure of African American and Native American history justifies the opposition to DEI initiatives. It denies the need to correct the imbalance resulting from generations of a privileged/marginalized social construct. If there is no cause, there is no effect, there is no need to take institutional corrective measures.

When the seats of government — the legislative and the executive branches – rests in the hands of one ideological movement, unrestrained by the weakness of opposition, legislative measures born out of the simmering angst of decades of feigned “go along” with social correctives are pushed through that roll back the progress towards the more perfect union.

The legislative body is comfortable with the imbalance of power and inequalities of society. They wield the sphere of authority over the marginalized.

The African American could feel a sense of betrayal; but we felt the sting of ingratitude when we returned from the battlefields in Europe and the Pacific Theater. Our red blood soaked into foreign soils, but many were denied access to the GI benefits that fueled postwar prosperity.

Those who govern are the descendants of those who enslaved us; they deny the inhumanity of this immoral and unjust system.

Those who govern are the generations of those who codified Black Codes and Jim Crow Laws into a social construct that devalued Black life and castrated their dignity.

These are the progeny, the sons and daughters of those who have benefited from systemic injustice but deny that inequality permeates every fiber of the social construct of America. It’s all they have known; it feels so normal. They can feel justified in the unjust laws they legislate; they can feel comfortable in the rollback of corrective measures. They can see no wrong in ending DEI initiatives.

As the Ronald Reagan, the quintessential Republican, said during a presidential debate. “There you go again.”

(Editor’s Note: The views expressed in this commentary piece do not necessarily the express the opinions of The Cincinnati Herald.)

Last month, CNN contributor Van Jones appeared on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher and discussed the murder rates of young Black males across the United States.

Maher remarked, “We do know that, for young Black men, gun homicides are the leading cause of death. And … that leading cause outstrips the next 15 causes combined … Also, Black men ages 18 to 25 die from gun homicides at a rate nearly 19 times that of White young men of the same age. And they’re not being killed by White supremacists; they’re being killed by each other; that is the truth.”

Jones concurred and then told Maher, “I’m really glad that you raised it because I think there is this myth that the Black community only cares about a Black kid getting killed if a White cop does it or a White supremacist does it, and it’s just not true. The media only cares.”

Jones insinuated that the media purposefully ignores the leading cause of death among Black males because it prioritizes news about White males shooting and killing Black men. Rightwing media outlets instantly applauded Jones for pointing out how the mainstream media “only cares” about “fanning the flames of racial division.”

However, Jones and Maher were talking about the reality of “Black-onBlack crime.”

They avoided the term because, for the past 15 years, Black intellectuals have been campaigning to eradicate the phrase “Black-on-Black crime” from the national discourse. These Black thinkers successfully persuaded the public that “Black-on-Black crime” was a myth.

How did this happen? Let us start from the beginning.

A Chicago Daily Defender reporter covering the 1968 riots first used the term “Black-on-Black.” The reporter stated that when stabbings, muggings, and rapes were “Black-on-Black,” they were “canceled out in the mind of a White precinct commander.” So, the police would not waste time or money on Black victims.

That means that the term “Black-onBlack crime” was originally associated with the neglect of Black victims. Jones criticized the mainstream media for this very reason, but that’s not

why the media isn’t covering it. Jones forgot that the term “Black-on-Black crime” had been redefined. In 2005, Professor David Wilson published Inventing Black-on-Black Violence. During the 1970s, Black communities demanded that police departments devote as much time and resources to victims of “Blackon-Black crime” as they did to their White counterparts. Wilson said that these well-intentioned Black folks introduced the term to the political establishment. Eventually, the Reagan administration used the term “Blackon-Black” to imply that Blacks were responsible for their own problems.

Wilson argued that when Republicans used the term, it normalized the idea that Black culture fostered criminality.

Wilson stated, “There was no reason to racialize this. It could have been framed as an economic or social-driven crime—why not call it ‘oppressed youth-on-oppressed youth’ or ‘disenfranchised-on-disenfranchised’ crime?”

Here, Wilson attempted to remove any stigma from Black culture by labeling the phenomenon based on the systemic and structural issues that contributed to violence in predominantly Black areas. Obviously, Wilson was more concerned with destigmatizing Black culture than with the actual victims of violence.

Five years later, Khalil Gibran Muhammad published The Condemnation of Blackness: Race, Crime, and the Making of Modern Urban America. Gibran explained that in the nineteenth century, White social scientists manipulated arrest and jail records to equate blackness with crime.

In the 21st century, terms like “Black-on-Black crime” reinforced that racist correlation, and Black intellectuals became more concerned with eradicating the correlation than with addressing the phenomenon that re-

sults in a massive imbalance in Black victims and unsolved killings.

In 2013, Jemelle Bouie remarked, “There is no such thing as Black-onBlack crime. Yes, from 1976 to 2005, 94 percent of Black victims were killed by Black offenders, but that racial exclusivity was true for White victims of violent crime—86 percent were killed by White offenders.” In other words, if the victims of White criminals are largely White, it is natural for the victims of Black criminals to be predominantly Black, and since there is no such thing as “White-on-White crime,” there should not be a term like “Black-on-Black crime.”

A year later, sociologist Gary Younge reiterated this idea, writing, “Far from being extraordinary, the fact that Black criminals are most likely to commit crimes against Black people makes them just like everyone else.

A more honest term than “Black-onBlack crime” would be simply “crime.”

In 2014, Black Lives Matter rose to national prominence by protesting the police shooting of an unarmed Black teenager in Ferguson, Missouri. However, many conservative commentators questioned why Black Lives Matter was not attempting to prevent “Blackon-Black crime.”

In response to those inquiries, a 2014 Media Matters headline read: Rightwing media push “Black-on-Black” crime canard to distract from Ferguson police shooting. From that moment forward, the term “Black-on-Black crime” was regarded as a racist “dog whistle” used by the right to associate blackness with criminality.

In 2017, freelance writer Sa’iyda Shabazz stated, “Black-on-Black crime is a myth. That’s right—it was invented by White people to make Black people look like dangerous hoodlums and killing machines. This way, it keeps the ghettos full of low-income Black people [and] keeps them incarcerated at disproportionately high rates.”

Shabazz believes the term helped lead to mass incarceration.

The mainstream media does not ignore the carnage in Black communities, as Van Jones suggested; they simply do not want to offend their Black audience or be accused of blowing a racist “dog whistle” by publicizing it.

(TriceEdneyWire.com) - Remember the parable of the blind men and the elephant? As each approached an elephant and tried to describe it, they came up with wildly disparate answers. One thought it a snake, another a tree, another a trunk. Because they were blind, they could not see the big picture; they described the part of the elephant they could touch.

Inflation is something like that. People describe it based on the way it hits them, and it hits each family differently. Those with incomes below the median salary of $56,420 per year are hit hardest and most likely counting their pennies. Those with higher incomes shrug off some of the ways inflation hurts. But make no mistake, it hurts. Grocery prices are up by 25 percent in the past four years, so you are now spending $125 for food you paid $100 for four years ago. To be sure, inflation is waning. Groceries increased by 2.6 percent between January 2023 and January 2024, compared to 10 percent the year before. The Federal Reserve has been grappling with ways to lower inflation, but they need help fixing supply chain issues and corporate greed.

Still, inflation reminds us how disparate our lives are. Some chafe at inflation, while others shrug it off. Then, a corporate CEO, Gary Pilnick, who earns at least $4.9 million a year as CEO of Kellogg, offered a novel solution for families fighting inflation. Let them eat cereal, he says. Really? Cereal, he says, is nutritious and delicious. And it’s also relatively cheap. A bowl of cereal and milk is not an adequate replacement for a protein, vegetable, and starch

(say chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans), nor is it quite as rib-sticking. But Pilnick arrogantly and glibly dared offer a Marie Antoinette-like solution to family meal planning. Let them eat flakes. A 13-serving box of Kellog’s Sugar Frosted Flakes costs $18.70, or about $1.45 a serving. Six ounces of milk costs about 40 cents. So a bowl of cereal costs $1.85, maybe more depending on the kind of milk you use (low-fat, almond, skim). In contrast, a chicken leg, mashed potatoes, and green beans will run you about $2.50 a serving, and it has more protein than the cereal dinner, which may have as few as two grams of protein. I am trying to figure out what Pilnick was thinking or if he has any children. His rather glib response to many working families’ daily challenges was out of line, out of order, and highly self-serving. Sure, some families occasionally do breakfast for dinner and even have fun with it. But offering flakes is no solution for families who are fighting inflation. Pilnick has been appropriate flack for his careless remarks, but those remarks reflect how divided our nation is. Some say, “Let them eat flakes,” while others may not even be able to afford the flakes the $4.9 million dollar-earning CEO so glibly offers. Cereal prices have risen 27 percent

in the last four years, faster than other grocery prices. Flakes are not a nutritious substitute for a balanced meal; some are so laden with sugar that they are a health risk. Frosted flakes, for example, have 13 grams of sugar per serving. Healthy? Hardly.

The COVID pandemic sparked inflation-related challenges, and those challenges, while decreasing, continue. Wages have not risen as quickly as inflation has, and those on the bottom are encountering significant difficulties. Hunger is a national problem that requires income supplements for people experiencing poverty, like the child tax credit. It certainly doesn’t need the glib myopia of an intellectually challenged CEO who perhaps thought he was being cute. His solution, let them eat flakes, is no solution for the already nutritionally threatened folk on the bottom, especially those with children.

Gary Pilnick earns more than $94,000 a week. He could donate some of that to a food bank. Letting them eat flakes is no solution to our nation’s hunger situation. Forty-four million of us, including one in five children, experience hunger. While we brag about our international prowess, the reality is that 12 countries – Finland, Ireland, Norway, France, the Netherlands, Japan, Sweden, Canada, the UK, Portugal, Switzerland, and Austria do better at providing citizens with nutritious meals. Instead of offering flakes, Pilnick should offer policy solutions. Or he should just shut up.

This week, “We The People” have gone to the Polls in 15 states on what we call “Super Tuesday”. Primary elections are being held across this country. Candidates are being set

this fraction can overthrow our present system of government if those of us who disagree

with them refuse to come out and vote them out of office. Please know that Joe Biden is not the model for the Presidency. He has not done all that he could for the very Black vote that gave him the Presidency. He failed to get the United States Senate to break the Filibuster and pass the George Floyd and John Lewis Acts. After more than 36 years in the Senate and 8 years as Vice President of the United States, he couldn’t do as his predecessor, Lyndon Baines Johnson, did and use the power of the Presidency to bring change. In spite of his weaknesses, he is better than the alternative who would help out enemies like Russia, and North Korea while using his office for personal revenge as he has promised, rather than serving America. We the people must vote from now through the November General Election to remove from office in each state, those persons whose track records do not reflect our concerns for immigration and our borders, nutrition and childcare for our children as well as affordable drug prices for those in

need; we must help the homeless among us and continue the Build Back Better and Inflation Reduction Acts we have seen in the last four years. We must not elect another Office Holder at any level who puts former President Donald Trump before their Oath of Office to the Constitution of the United States and the people who elected them. America, this could well be our last wake up call as our allies study how seriously we take our pledge to support them as opposed to having a President who will encourage our enemies to attack those who he thinks have not paid their dues to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). We must re-elect a President who understands Article 5 and our responsibilities which could place this nation in World War 3 if not handled properly. The vote starts right here at home wherever home is for you and you are personally responsible for our future and those who get in office to determine that future. Vote like your life depends on it because it really does. (Dr. John E. Warren is Publisher, San Diego Voice & Viewpoint Newspaper)

in place to run in the November General Election. While there appears to be much concern about the Republican party which no longer appears to be concerned with its role in our two Party system, nor the blatant disregard for the oath of office those holding office took when they pledged to “protect and defend the Constitution of the United States” against all enemies “foreign and domestic”, it appears that too many Americans have forgotten who elected those who seem determined to destroy democracy as we know it. The Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement is not representative of the majority of the American people. But
