Photos by Yvonne Kemp
On Monday, May 17, 2021, Alverno College hosted its commencement ceremony at American Family Field. This is the first live commencement since 2019 as last year's was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year's ceremony featured the bestowing of a Doctor of Letters degree from Alverno College on Billye Aaron (left photo, center) — educator, broadcaster, philanthropist and wife of the late Hank Aaron. This year was presided over by Alverno trustee and executive director of the Brewers Community Foundation Cecelia Gore (left photo, left), and Alverno College President Andrea Lee. This event was also special for the Milwaukee Times as Morgan Ashley Conyers (inset photo), the daughter of the late Times founder Nathan Conyers, and Publisher Lynda Jackson Conyers received a Masters in Administrative Leadership during the commencement.

On Friday, May 14, 2021, the Milwaukee Environmental Sciences Academy (MESA) hosted their Middle School's Annual STEM/STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math/Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) at their school, 6600 W. Melvina Street. At this time of uncertainty due to COVID-19 and the virtual learning platform, it was quite a joy for the students to show off what they have learned at an in-person event. More than 80 projects were on display representing 18 branches of science, from behavioral science to physics. It was a requirement that every scholar incorporate and demonstrate one of Sir Isaac Newton's Three Laws of Motion as it pertained to their project as well as the exact scientific terms and language that they learned this year. In-person social distancing and masks were also a requirement at the event.

More than 85 percent of black homicide victims killed with guns, study finds Guns are by far the most common weapon used to kill Black homicide victims in America, according to a new study by the Violence Policy Center (VPC). The study found that 86 percent of Black homicide victims nationwide were killed with guns. Of these, two-thirds were killed with a handgun. In addition to national data, the annual study, Black Homicide Victimization in the United States: An Analysis of 2018 Homicide Data, also ranks the states according to their Black homicide victimization rates. It is based on unpublished data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Supplementary Homicide Report (SHR). The study details homicide rates for 2018, the most recent year for which comprehensive national data is available. This is the 15th year the
Violence Policy Center has released the study. “In 2018, Black men, women, boys, and girls were only 14 percent of our nation’s population, yet accounted for 50 percent of all homicide victims. These deaths devastate families, traumatize communities, and almost always involve a gun. The goal of our re-
search is to help support community advocates and organizations working on the ground to stop this lethal violence while, at the same time, continuing to educate and engage the public and policymakers on the need to address this ongoing national crisis,” states VPC Executive Director Josh Sugarmann. For the entire United
States, the study finds that in 2018: There were 7,426 Black homicide victims in the United States that year. Blacks represented 14 percent of the U.S. population, yet accounted for 50 percent of all homicide victims. The Black homicide victimization rate in the United States was 18.18 per 100,000. In comparison, the overall national homicide victimization rate was 4.92 per 100,000. For whites, the national homicide victimization rate was 2.83 per 100,000. Of the 7,426 Black homicide victims, 6,314 were male, 1,111 were female, and the sex of one victim was unknown. The homicide victimization rate for Black male victims was 28.48 per 100,000. In comparison, the overall rate for male homicide victims was 7.17 per

100,000 and the rate for white male homicide victims was 3.76 per 100,000. The homicide victimization rate for Black female victims was 4.63 per 100,000. In comparison, the overall rate for female homicide victims was 1.93 per 100,000 and the rate for white female homicide victims was 1.48 per 100,000. For homicides in which the weapon used could be identified, 86 percent of Black victims (6,116 out of 7,072) were shot and killed with guns. Of these, 66 percent (4,024 victims) were killed with handguns. For homicides in which the victim-to-offender relationship could be identified, 76 percent of Black victims (2,267 out of 2,995) were killed by someone they knew. The number of victims killed by strangers was 728. For homicides in which the circumstances could be identified, 70 percent (3,018 out of 4,335) were not related to the commission of any other felony. Of these, 51 percent (1,531 homicides) involved arguments between the victim and the offender. The 10 states with the highest Black homicide victimization rates in 2018 were: Rank State #of Rate/mill 1 MO 366 47.41 2 AL 16 43.58 3 IN 234 32.81 4 NV 110 32.22 5 IL 623 32.11 6 TN 330 27.53 7 PA 448 27.45 8 LA 424 27.23 9 AR 132 26.95 10 MI 385 25.73 In addition, individuals living in communities where violence is prevalent are at higher risk for a broad range of negative health and behavior outcomes. An increased understanding of how trauma resulting from community violence influences development, health, and behavior can lead to improvements in the way many social services are delivered as well as policy changes at the local and federal levels (see the July 2017 VPC study The Relationship Between Community Violence and Trauma: How Violence Affects Learning, Health, and Behavior, https://vpc.org/ studies/trauma17.pdf). At the same time, the firearms industry, looking to expand beyond its shrinking base of white male gun owners, has launched an organized marketing campaign focusing on Blacks and Latinos. If successful, such efforts can only increase gun death and injury in these communities (see the January 2021 Violence Policy Center study How the Firearms Industry and NRA Market Guns to Communities (Continued on pg. 13)

Diversity Holidays and Celebrations In May (Week 3) This month this column is highlighting diversity holidays and celebrations in May. This week, we continue with honoring Cinco de Mayo as it is important that we honor different cultures. Honoring Cinco de Mayo is not only meaningful for our readers who are of Mexican ancestry, but it provides opportunities for our readers to develop a deeper and richer understanding of the reason for the celebration. In continuation, this week, let’s look at how Cinco de Mayo is celebrated in Mexico and in the United States. This week’s article will conclude with why Cinco de Mayo is often confused with Mexico’s Independence Day. How is Cinco de Mayo celebrated? In Mexico, Cinco de Mayo is primarily observed in the state of Puebla, where Zaragoza’s unlikely victory occurred, while other parts of the country also take part in the celebration. Traditions for celebrating Cinco de Mayo include military
on September 16 by Mexicans and people of Mexican ancestry around the world. Mexico’s War for Independence from Spain lasted for more than 11 years, but September 16, 1810, when the fight commenced with a historic battle cry, is universally regarded as the nation’s Independence Day. Festivities commemorating Mexico’s Independence Day take place in major Mexican cities as well as around the world.2 parades, recreations of the Battle of Puebla and other festive events. For many Mexicans, May 5 is a day like any other: It is not a federal holiday, so offices, banks and stores remain open.
they identified with the victory of indigenous Mexicans over European invaders during the Battle of Puebla. Today, revelers mark the occasion with parades, parties, mariachi music, Mexican folk dancing and traditional foods such as tacos and mole poblano.1

Become a foster parent today I have been a foster parent for more than ten-years and over five-years with Benevolence First Agency; during this time, I’ve fostered five children and have adopted one of those children and I’m in the process of adopting another one.

Being a foster parent has its own rewards; knowing that a child could benefit from what you have to offer such as a home, food, and security is a wonderful feeling. So, I say to anyone who is contemplating with becoming a foster parent and it is tugging at your heart strings, to go for it, and be that light at the end of the tunnel that changes a child life.

Child nutrition: Planning, planting and preparing healthy meals By Sandra Millon Underwood, RN, PhD, FAAN Professor, UW-Milwaukee College of Nursing Growing up in Mississippi Bonnie Anderson’s mother always had a garden. Early on, she learned how growing your own food, preserving, and canning it were not only fun activities, but taught her life-long skills that helped ensure she and her family always had fresh, healthy, and nutritious foods to eat. “Even after moving to South Bend, Indiana, my mother had a garden. She planted tomatoes, green beans, cucumbers, and just about every vegetable that would grow. As adults, my husband and I continue to have a garden. My husband grew up in the country, so he’s great at gardening. We grow mustard greens, collard greens, squash, tomatoes, and cabbage. “We start planting on Memorial Day. We grow a lot of vegetables. By late June and early July, we harvest the tomatoes, green beans, cucumbers, and squash. We have separate gardens for our greens—one garden for mustard greens and another for collard greens. The mustard greens grow quickly so they must be picked and thinned out. We pick and cook this early crop of mustards and harvest the rest of them later in the season. The collard greens grow quickly and really large. We wait until the first frost hits them before harvesting because it makes the collards more tender,” Anderson said. After harvesting these vegetables, Anderson uses the skills her mother taught her to preserve or “can” her bounty in glass jars. “After I harvest the greens, I wash them right away. I blanch them and store them in freezer bags. I boil or can the tomatoes. I also can or preserve apples, pears, and peaches. I give a lot of the vegetables to friends and neighbors. My mother always told me that you can
keep canned and preserved vegetables and fruits from season to season, so that’s what I try to do. I usually have 50 to 60 jars of apples. Sometimes, I have so many that I let them sit on the shelves a little longer and they are fine,” said Anderson. Andre Lee Ellis has also evolved into an urban farmer. Starting out, he just wanted to engage with youth. On Saturdays, he would enlist community youth to help clean up the neighborhood as part of his “We Got This” program. The program, which mentors young men, is now in its ninth year. Ellis and the “We Got This” volunteers work with the youth to plant and maintain a community garden on Ninth and Burleigh Streets. This community gardening program is now part of the Groundwork Milwaukee Program which oversees 85-100 community gardens throughout Milwaukee. It’s also one of three ‘health hubs’ that Groundwork Milwaukee is working with as part of a pilot health equity project. One of the goals of the project is to address food insecurity and promote food access through community gardening and community engagement. Ellis’ program is particularly popular among neighborhood youth. On any given Saturday he attracts a host of community and business leaders, who stop by to observe, mentor, encourage the youth, and to donate funds to support the program.

“Each year more and more youth come out on Saturdays. They clean up the neighborhood and tend the garden. We pay them $20 for four hours of work every Saturday. Some of the young people have been with the program since they were 12 years old and they are now in high school. There is nothing like watching vegetables grow, then being able to eat what you planted in the soil. The kids love it,” said Ellis. Ellis said that this year’s community gardening program will start in midJune. Because of COVID-19, he may need the youth to register if they desire to be involved. The details are still being worked out. “Some of the youth from “We Got This” recently participated in a cooking demonstration hosted by Chef Marvin Jones and Groundwork Milwaukee. The demonstration aimed to teach the youth how to prepare healthy meals. Chef Marvin was remarkable. The Healthy Eating and Living volunteers brought masks, sanitizer, and other items to help everyone stay safe. It was a great time,” said Ellis. Not everyone has green thumbs or the space to plant gardens like the Andersons and Ellis, but everyone can learn to prepare and nutritious meals and involve the children. It does not take a lot of time or effort. Speaking from personal experience, Chef Marvin said that he first became interested in cooking by watching his father cook on Saturdays. “My dad insisted that his sons learn to cook. I am a product of a parent who believed you had to listen and pay attention to learn. My brothers and I had to stand around the kitchen, watch and answer my dad’s questions. If we did not respond correctly, it meant we were going to have a long day,” laughed Chef Marvin. Chef Marvin does not advocate that approach to teaching children good nutrition or healthy eating.
Bonnie Anderson He does believe children should be involved in the food preparation process— whether it is gardening or going to the grocery store to purchase food. “Cooking and involving children with food preparation should be fun. I make it part of a game where there is no pressure
or stigma. There are lots of ways to involve children and teach them about nutrition and healthy preparation of food. Start out preparing healthy desserts, then move into vegetables. Sweets catch their attention. Once you have them engaged, show them how to build a spinach (Continued on pg. 11)

It is going to get a little messy in the kitchen so be prepared for that because it is more than worth it since you are instilling something invaluable in them,” said Chef Marvin. Chef Marvin also advocates establishing a set time to sit down for meals with the family. “In the western world we don’t celebrate food like other countries do. In many countries the meal is an ‘event’. You sit down as a family, enjoy the food, and conversation takes place. These days, we’re so busy that once the meal is prepared, everyone just comes in whenever, and helps themselves. There is no formal time set for dinner. There was a time when— no matter what you were doing—unless you had a really good excuse, everyone sat down for dinner at a certain time,” he said. Groundwork Milwaukee oversees a network of community gardens that www.milwaukeetimesnews.com
are started and maintained by residents who want to activate unused space in their neighborhoods. Most of the gardens are used to grow fresh produce in raised garden beds while others serve as recreational greenspace and still others function as fullscale farms. Groundwork collaborates with gardeners to provide legal and safe access to city-owned vacant space, materials and labor for garden builds and maintenance, and planning and training of health-based educational and recreational programming in the gardens. Individuals interested in starting a community garden should contact Groundwork Milwaukee at (414) 763-9947. *** The Healthy Eating and Active Living Milwaukee (HEAL) is a culturally-tailored program that aims to provide education, resources to secure healthy foods, and active living supports for adults at-risk for developing lifestyle-related diseases; and, to empower adults to make changes in their physical and social environment to improve nutrition and physical activity. ‘Like’ their Facebook page that’s full of videos of healthy recipes and low-cost, no-cost exercise.
Milwaukee Times: Since All of Us invited the family to this nationwide virtual meeting, the program must care about diversity. Dr. Bashir Easter: Diversity is one of the core values of the All of Us Research Program. All of Us is asking lots of people to join the program. Participants are from different races, ethnicities, age groups, and regions of the country. They are also diverse in gender identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, education, disability, and health status. By studying data from a diverse group of people, researchers can learn more about what makes people sick or keeps them healthy. What researchers learn today could lead to better care for all of us in the future.

Fresh from sponsoring this week’s Community Immunity Town Hall on the V100 Facebook page, we delve into diversity in research with Bashir Easter, Ph.D., Assistant Director of the University of Wisconsin-Madison All of Us team at the Center for Community Engagement and Health Partnerships in Milwaukee. The Town Hall was entitled, “Science, Research and Communities of Color.”
Here are some tips to help families embark on a healthy, a step-by-step journey to eating healthy. • Make it fun for kids to try new fruits and vegetables. Let them pick out new fruits or vegetables in the grocery store and figure out together how to cook or prepare it in a healthy way. • Choose whole-grain foods, such as whole-wheat bread, rye bread, brown rice, popcorn, oatmeal, and whole-grain cereal. • Some fats are better than others. When possible, use liquid vegetable oils such as canola, corn, olive, and sunflower oils instead of butter and solid fats. • Help children develop healthy habits early in life that will bring lifelong benefits. Be a good role model, make it fun, and involve the whole family. • Chicken, fish, and beans are good choices for protein. Remove skin and visible fat from poultry. If you do eat red meat, limit it, keep portion size small, and choose the leanest cuts. • Read food nutrition labels with your children. Pick healthy foods that provide nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber but limit sodium, added sugars, saturated fat and trans fats.

police encounters by 2017. In October 2016, the U.S. Department of Justice outlined a plan to improve the collection of law enforcement use of force data. The FBI has begun to release online very limited information on law enforcement use of force incidents. In addition, the agency notes that in 2020 only 5,030 out of 18,514 federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies throughout the nation participated and provided use of force data. The officers employed by these agencies represent 42 percent of federal, state, local, and tribal sworn officers in the nation. The rate of Black homi-
cide victimization is calculated by dividing the number of Black homicide victims by the Black population and multiplying the result by 100,000. This is the standard and accepted method of comparing fatal levels of gun violence.

According to the American Heart Association, many things have changed in the last several years for the better around stroke care and awareness, but when having a stroke, timely care is critical for better outcomes. Chambers had her first stroke in 2012. Since then, she’s had another stroke. Each time, she missed or dismissed the warning signs. Her second stroke occurred when she was attending church service. Julia Means, RN, an Ascension parish nurse who works at Ebenezer Church of God in Christ, was on hand to help facilitate Chambers’ immediate care. Thankfully, because of Means’ quick thinking, Chambers survived the second stroke with no permanent or debilitating consequences. “Several parishioners came to me in a panic to tell me
