Milwaukee Times Founder Nathan Conyers passes away at 72 By: Jacquelyn D. Heath Nathan Conyers, whose keen news sense, Christian spirit, and community concern lead to the founding of The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper, died Friday, April 27, 2018, after a long illness. He was 72. Mr. Conyers has been a familiar face and voice on Milwaukee’s general community scene, and in particular, through media promoting the city’s African American community since 1977. He not only carved out a niche for himself as a media professional, but through The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper and its parent company, NCON Publishing and Printing Company, has been a prolific creator of jobs within Milwaukee’s central city for more than three decades. A native of rural South Carolina, Mr. Conyers was the youngest of seven children, which included four girls and three boys. He attended public school in Paxville, SC in Clarendon County. The Conyers family would later move to Sumter, SC, where Nathan attended Lincoln High School, graduating in 1964.
Milwaukee Times founder Nathan Conyers In 1967, Conyers enlisted in the U.S. Army. After completing basic and advanced training in communications, he was sent to Germany, where he served for the duration of his military career; he received an honorable discharge in June, 1971. Upon returning to his mother’s South Carolina home, he informed her that he would be leaving again – this time for Atlanta, GA,
where he had been accepted at Clark College (now Clark Atlanta University). At the time, he didn’t know anyone in Atlanta; but he took a ‘crash course’ on the city by reading the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, especially the classifieds, and looked for work. He ended up following up on a job lead for a Telex operator with Time Magazine’s Atlanta bureau, interviewed for the job and
was hired. This turned out to be the ideal opportunity for Conyers, as it allowed him to attend classes at Clark in the morning, work in the afternoon, and still have time to study at night. Conyers earned a bachelor of arts degree in political science from Clark in 1971. He held onto the job at Time through 1977, when he relocated to Milwaukee. He soon found work with The Milwaukee
Community Journal and was hired as a writer and reporter by publishers Robert Thomas and Patricia Thomas Pattillo, and editor Mikel Holt. While at the Community Journal, Conyers met Monroe Swan, who was running for the Wisconsin State Senate 6th district. Swan was elected in 1972 and hired Conyers as a legislative aide, impressed by the combination of journalism skills and political acumen Conyers brought to the position. Conyers served as a political aide to Swan for the duration of his term in office which ended in 1981. Conyers was then tapped by community activist and retired nurse Louvenia Johnson, who was then executive director of the intergenerational social services organization Project Focal Point, to be her administrative assistant. The two shared a strong interest in politics, community affairs, and issues of faith. He met Lynda Jackson, a young Milwaukee native who had just launched her career as an educator; they married in 1983. In 1981, Conyers joined forces with Mrs. Johnson; and local realtor (Continued on pg. 2)

things, yet going unnoticed. To date, nearly 1,000 black Milwaukeeans have been introduced to the community from various professional and community endeavors as Black Excellence Awards honorees. At the third Black Excellence Awards program in 1988, Conyers helped his co-founder, Mrs. Louvenia Johnson, launch The Louvenia Johnson Journalism Scholarship Fund, to assist college-bound high school graduates seeking to pursue careers in print and broadcast journalism. The scholarship now offers financial support to graduating high school seniors seeking a degree in any major. To date, the Fund has awarded more than half a million dollars to area students by the scholarship, which is now an IRS 501c3 nonprofit, charitable organization.

Within its first year of publication, the paper grew in appeal to cover more general community news and was renamed The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper, with The Christian Times remaining as a standing feature section to this day. In 1985, the Milwaukee Times publishing team launched the annual Black Excellence Awards program as a way to pay tribute to the good works of ordinary people from Milwaukee’s black community who were accomplishing extraordinary

Conyers also started the Annual Golden Moments Celebration, an event honoring African American couples that had been married for 50 years or more. In 1991, the newspaper also sponsored The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper High School Journalism Workshop, an internship program which operated for
Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper
three years and gave area students hands-on, paid experience in news writing, editing, photojournalism, printing and publishing skills. Conyers also satisfied his lifelong interest in local politics and community affairs by serving as an advisor or board member to several community organizations, including the interdenominational faith group Pastors United; the Milwaukee chapter of Operation PUSH; and Independence First, an advocacy organization for people with disabilities. He also served on the boards of Discovery World, Milwaukee Urban League, the NAACP Milwaukee Branch, and Miller (Brewing) Ride for the Arts. In 1992, he was approached by Econoprint President and CEO John Selix to open the first Econoprint franchise
in Wisconsin owned by an African American. Conyers also made a run for alderman of Milwaukee’s west side 17th district in 1992, losing to E. Fay Anderson. As a man of faith, he and his family attended Community Baptist Church of Greater Milwaukee. Conyers is survived by his wife, Lynda; and daughters Morgan and Deloris. Homegoing Services The family is having a public visitation at St. Mark AME Church, 1616 W. Atkinson Ave., Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Sunday May 6, from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Funeral services for Mr. Conyers will be held on Saturday, May 12, 2018 at West End Community Church, 101 South Salem St., Sumter, SC 29150.
A message from the The Milwaukee Times family In 1981, Nathan Conyers helped found what would become The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper, an accomplishment which would not have been possible without the loyalty and ongoing support of the African American community in Milwaukee. Nathan was fiercely proud of the Times’ devoted readers and worked tirelessly to provide informative and positive news, photos, accurate information, inspiration and hope. An article published in the November 29, 1982 edition of The Milwaukee Sentinel reported that circulation had grown to 5,000 since its founding. In that article, Nathan described the purpose of the year-old newspaper he’d helped found as to provide an account “rich in culture and texture” of the inner city. In that same interview he said that part of what motivated him to start the newspaper was his belief that “if we are going to have any control over our destiny,

Nathan did not have that opportunity and probably would have declined if offered. Even though in recent years his health prevented him from being in the office on a daily basis, he continued to be involved with the newspaper. For a number of years, his widow, Lynda Jack-

we’ve got to have a written history.” Nathan was always looking for new ways to lift others up. In 1985, he and The Milwaukee Times initiated the annual Black Excellence Awards to recognize and celebrate the achievements of local African Americans. Three years later the Louvenia Johnson Scholarship Fund was created to provide scholarships for deserving inner city students. With his death after a long illness on April 27, 2018, The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper community has lost the last living member of the trio which in 1981 founded The Christian Times. Both local realtor Luther Golden, as well as community activist and retired nurse Louvenia Johnson, preceded Nathan in death. Many long-time publishers write a parting column reflecting on their career as a journalist before they retire.

son Conyers has served as the publisher, but those founding values: to provide an account “rich in culture and texture” of the inner city in the form of a “written history,” will remain the primary basis of The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper coverage for many more years to come under Lynda's ongoing leadership. If Nathan had one regret before laying down his pen and camera for the last time on this earth, it would most likely be his inability to thank the inner city community of Milwaukee for its loyalty and support during the past 37 years in which The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper has sought to publicize sto-
ries of hope and light for its readers. “A grateful heart is a beginning of greatness,” said American religious leader, lawyer, and politician James E. Faust. “It is an expression of humility. It is a foundation for the development of such virtues as prayer, faith, hope, courage, love, education and well-being.” Those who were privileged to know or work with Nathan saw all of those qualities in his character and his work. Our ongoing promise to you, our readers and supporters, is that we will continue to strive to build upon the strong foundation of prayer, faith, courage, contentment, happiness, love and well-being that Nathan worked so hard to include in every issue.

Mothers – A special gift from God (Week One)
“Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother” - (John 19:25a)
Last month believers were reminded how Jesus hung impaled on the Cross with life slowly oozing out of His body, and how His mother stood nearby watching. To different people in the Gospel account of the Crucifixion, it meant different things. To Pilate it was the place where an innocent man died. The Pharisees and Sadducees, on the other hand, saw the Cross as the way to get rid of a problem and their position and authority were no longer threatened. To the disciples of Jesus, the Crucifixion meant their Messiah and friend had died. The dream of being freed from Roman authority also died. To the mother of Jesus, the Cross had a different meaning. To her, the Cross represented a shameful crime. It also meant the fulfillment of prophecy. Perhaps there at the Cross, she recalled the
words of the angel Gabriel when he said to her, “[You] will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins." (Matt. 1:21.) On the other hand, maybe she was recalling the words of Simeon when he met Jesus at the temple during Jesus’ presentation. (Lk. 2:29-33.) Whatever the case, we cannot have a good understanding of Good Friday without a good understanding of the mystery of what Motherhood is.
manger filled with hay. She is now 33-1/2 years removed from that scenario on the day of her son’s public execution. The crowd has determined that her son should face the humiliation of execution by the Roman Cross. Nevertheless, Mary was there. She knew the innocence of her son. She knew there was nothing in Him deserving of such cruelty. Never had there been sin of any kind in His thoughts, words, or deeds or deceit in His heart. This is a testimony and a confirmation that a mother loves her Motherhood goes beyond children all the time.

cherish the memories and fondly recall the lessons of life my mother instilled. After my mother’s sudden death, my aunt, Doris G. Madison, stepped in and became like a mother. Publicly, I want to thank my aunt for her unselfishness, sage advice, tough love, and the excellent Christian examples she exhibited. Because I have an uncanny resemblance to my aunt, I am often approached in public places inquiring whether I am her daughter. To avoid expending their time in an effort to explain the familial connection, my smile is usually enough to at least acknowledge the relationship. This Mother’s Day, it is my mother, the late Bernice G. Taylor and my aunt, Doris G. Madison that I thank God for as the special gifts given to me by God and who showed me what true Motherhood is. I am sure our readers have similar stories of how special the mother in their life is. We therefore give tribute to all the beautiful, strong, loving, courageous, selfless mothers who have sacrificed much for their children and who continue to love as only a mother can.

The district explored a number of other options, but they were much more complicated for families and staff than adding an extra day. The last day for grades K-8 at schools on the early start calendar will not change and is still Friday, May 18, 2018. For all schools on the traditional calendar, the last day of school is June 8, 2018. The end of the school year is approaching and Milwaukee Public Schools has a necessary change to the last day of school for all 9th to 12th grade students.

District releases balanced $1.2 billion proposed 2018-19 budget
Milwaukee Public Schools’ administration released the Superintendent’s Proposed FY19 Budget on Friday, April 27, 2018. For the past four months, the district has worked to close a $30 million budget gap to keep budget cuts as far away from the classroom as possible. “Stagnant revenue, rising health care costs, and declining enrollment all contributed to a financial shortfall that make this a very difficult budget year,” said MPS Chief Financial Officer Thomas Conjurski. “The administration examined a number of
different options, based on budget parameters from the Milwaukee Board of School Directors.” Under the Proposed FY19 Budget, eighty-eight cents of every dollar goes to support schools, students, and the largest group of district employees – teachers. Seven cents supports non-school based staff and services to schools, and the remaining five cents supports operational expenses including utilities, insurance, technology licenses and debt repayment.

Black men and healthcare – a broken relationship
By: Abdris Elba, B.S. Every year my mother texts or calls to check whether I’ve completed my annual physical, dental cleaning and vision test. Going to the dentist and optometrist has always been easy to complete, but going to the doctor for routine check-ups and blood tests hasn’t been. In my case, accessibility to a network of providers is easy because of the health benefits associated with past and current jobs. With access to such good healthcare, why am I so reticent to regularly go to the doctor? Why are black men so hesitant to regularly visit their doctors? I’ve asked myself this question a multitude of times. The answer is layered and nuanced. There’s a naivety that comes with being young, a black man or both. It’s almost a feeling of invincibility – a false sense of healthiness that’s based off an unprofessional self-assessment consisting of an “I’m okay. I feel good.” If there’s no sharp pain or glaring signs of a problem then there’s no need to go to the doctor. “I know my body” is often our sole justification. Obviously, this is a dangerous way of thinking that positions us to be reactive rather than proactive. With youth and/or being a black man also comes the blissfulness of ignorance. Being unaware of your current state of health is more soothing than finding out something may actually be wrong. Living in the unknown doesn’t force us to face past actions that may have triggered health issues: whether it's sexual activity, substance abuse, diet, etc. Here is when you realize how much we believe in the ageold axiom, “out of sight, out of mind.”
Stereotypes of black men lead to longer wait times and doctors’ mistrust of their described symptoms as well. It’s been noted that physicians spend less time with black men as well. Again, the relationship between doctor and patient lacks the empathy and ingenuous nature needed for a patient to feel a particular treatment and prescription is the true solution to a health issue.
and the foundation of trust is broken within the black community. One must look at the historical contexts of blacks and the health care system to truly understand. Historically, black bodies have been the victim of forced medical and surgical experimentations only to have the results used as justification of their oppression and exploitation. Dr. J. Corey Williams explained, “In the Antebellum period, blacks were forced to participate in dissections and medical examinations. The psychiatric diagnosis of drapetomania, or “runaway slave syndrome,” was created to diagnose and pathologize African slaves who fled their vicious slave owners. To run away from slavery was considered a disease. The treatment was often amputation of extremities.”
He continued, “Later during Reconstruction Era, white American doctors argued that former slaves would not thrive in a free society because their minds could not cope psychologically with freedom. In the Civil Rights era, psychiatrists used the concept of schizoBlack men’s subscriptions phrenia to portray black to flawed notions of mascu- activists as violent, hostile, linity only compound the is- and paranoid because they sue.

On another note, it can’t go without saying that the socioeconomic issues that continue to cripple black communities play a major factor as well. Everything with worse side effects are from poor school systems prescribed to black men over and minimal job opportuninewer medications with few- ties to food deserts and lack er side effects. of resources accentuate the mistrust as well. The absence
of dietary and lifestyle education coupled with a culture of unhealthy eating accentuates the very ailments black men are resistant to addressing with physicians. Adding the reality of jobs without sufficient medical benefits only forces black families to choose between going untreated and expensive medical bills. The resolution to this generational problem is quite robust, to say the least. It’s not only a change of mindset, but also a change of culture that persists in America. We are more than aware of the systematic oppression and exploitation of black people and a collective effort is needed to alleviate the sickness of mind, body, and spirit on all sides.

Photo By Yvonne Kemp
Maggie “Idea” Vance celebrated her 100th birthday with family and friends on Saturday, April 21, 2018, at the Carter Conference Center at Holy Redeemer COGIC. She was born in Wilmot, AR on April 17, 1918. She moved to Milwaukee in 1949. She held various jobs through the years at nursing homes and the dietary department of Mt. Sinai hospital, to name a few. She was very active in the community, going door-to-door in the 1950’s and 60’s working on voter registration. She was a member at Philadelphia MBC under the late Rev. H. Henderson; she was a member of Genesis MBC under Rev. A.L. Douglas, Jr., and is presently a member of Greater Love MBC under Pastor Frank Ballantine. When she first moved to the city in the late 1940’s, she lived on 7th Street. She moved on 23rd and
Walnut Street in the late 1950’s where she purchased two homes and moved her daughter and six children into one of the homes and she lived in the other. She lost her only daughter in July, 1972 in a car-train accident. Without hesitation she moved into the home with the six children and got them to adulthood. Mrs. Maggie Vance witnessed two World Wars, the Great Depression, 20 U.S. Presidents, including voting in the election of the first African American President Barack Obama, the Apollo Moon Landing, and remarkable advances in medicine and technology. As you can see, Maggie has accomplished and seen a lot with only a 5th grade education and the Lord on her side.
