Photo by Yvonne Kemp
On Sunday, August 18, 2019, Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church celebrated its 100th Anniversary, 1919-2019, at the church, 2207 North 2nd Street. On the first day in May, 1919, a group of divinely inspired God's people gathered to form what would become known as Mount Zion MBC. Later the site of Mt. Zion on Galena Street, between North 7th and 8th Streets, was the first church to be erected by people of color in the city of Milwaukee. On July 26, 1964 the church would once again move to its current home on North 2nd St. On November 16, 1986, current pastor Rev. Louis E. Sibley, III, was installed at the 9th pastor of Mount Zion. Under his leadership the church has grown with new programs, a senior housing complex and a Child Development Center. Pictured at the church's 100th Anniversary event are (from left) Mount Zion MBC Pastor Rev. Louis E. Sibley, III; First Lady Barbara Wyatt Sibley; Nazarene Baptist Church of Alexandria, LA pastor and keynote speaker Rev. Herbert V. Baptiste; and his wife Mrs. Ashley N. Baptiste.

On Sunday, August 18, 2019, Milwaukee veteran William Coffer, Jr., received the Congressional Gold Medal for being one of the first African Americans to enlist in the military during times of segregation. Many consider Coffer to be a true American hero, and as such, he received the nation's highest civilian honor – the Congressional Gold Medal. During a ceremony held at Greater Galilee Missionary Baptist Church, 2432 N. Teutonia Ave., Coffer celebrated along with friends, family, and other veterans. Keeping his remarks brief, Coffer said he was honored to serve his country, he's proud of the legacy he left as a Marine, and he hopes other Marines who follow in his footsteps will continue to hold themselves to a similar standard of service.

Bulletin Board Milwaukee Recreation celebrates Columbia Playfield grand reopening Milwaukee Recreation reopened its renovated Columbia Playfield on Saturday, August 17, 2019, to unveil the playfield’s newly constructed basketball courts, play structures, splash pad, and walking path. The celebration included MPS Superintendent Dr. Keith P. Posley, Mayor Tom Barrett, district officials, community stakeholders, and children from the surrounding neighborhood. "Our young people learn through play, and we want them to have [that] opportunity," Dr. Posley said. Last fall, Milwaukee Recreation began work to remodel and rebuild its recreation playfields by breaking ground at the first three sites to be transformed: Columbia, Custer, and Southgate. Columbia is the first playfield to reopen. Many of Milwaukee Recreation’s playfields were built in the 1920s and 1930s. The existing outdoor recreation system is comprised of 52 active-use playfields encompassing more than 300 acres of programmed space. The majority of these sites serve
as neighborhood scale parks with traditional recreational facilities such as ballfields, tot lots, tennis courts, fieldhouses, and general open space. "We have to be a city where every kid can have fun in the summer," Barrett said. In 2014, the department retained a consultant to conduct a review of its existing facilities and provide a roadmap for improvements to the playfields. The result was the Milwaukee Outdoor Recreation Facilities Master Plan. The plan rated 65 percent of the facilities as fair to poor, and identified more than $25 million in needed improvements over a 10-year span. The department then analyzed the neighborhood and population characteristics surrounding each playfield to create a priority list of projects that emphasized racial and economic equity. “Everyone deserves a safe place to recreate and we now have an equitable way to prioritize the renovation projects and truly level the playing field in our city,” Mil- showcase the tremendous waukee Recreation’s senior investment we’re making in director Lynn A.

Ascension sponsors Blessing of the Baby event at Ebenezer Church of God in Christ By Karen Stokes Years ago, Julia Means, community health ministry nurse with Ascension Columbia St. Mary’s Hospital, attended a conference that deeply affected her. At the conference, they discussed the fact that many babies born in Milwaukee were dying before the age of one. Shortly after, Means co-founded Blanket of Love. The Blanket of Love program is a prenatal and parenting education program for young women, their spouse or friend and family. Blanket of Love creates a community of support through the combination of a welcoming meal eaten together, an educational program presentation and time for sharing with staff and other members of the group. Meetings are held at Ebenezer Church of God in Christ, 3132 N. Martin Luther King, Jr. Dr. On August 17, 2019, members of Ebenezer Church along with community members participated in the Blessing of the Baby event sponsored by Ascension.

Blessing of the Baby is an acknowledgment by the par-
ents that the child is a gift from God, and that the parents desire to recommit the child to Him. “You’ve been invited here today to have your child blessed. We believe that God authentically blesses those parents that bring their chil-

Song, prayer and spiritual teachings preceded the anointing of babies, expectant mothers and children with oil at the service. The service is not a baptism, but an opportunity to recognize how important our children are to God and the community. “Never had a Baby Blessing where the whole community was involved,” Elder Saffold said. “Parish nurse and church member Julia Means has been working for years to help mothers get ready to have their babies.” Following the service, the families were invited to a baby shower in the lower level of the church. Multi-colored balloons, stuffed animals and toys displayed in a vibrant decorated room where games, food, gifts for babies, children and parents
were shared to make this celebration even more joyous. “Our vision was that they just have a healthy baby,” said church member Jill Shumpert. “Through that vision, Blanket of Love is going national through all Ascension hospitals.” Ascension’s mission is rooted in the loving ministry of Jesus as healer, committed to serving all persons, with special attention to those who are poor and vulnerable. Their Catholic health ministry is dedicated to spiritually-centered, holistic care which sustains and improves the health of individuals and communities. “Ascension sponsored the Baby Blessing event and they are a Christian organization and not afraid to show it,” Means said. “I am an employee of Ascension and I like working for them so I can utilize my faith in my job.”

Meet the East Coast's first black female comic book store owner Ariell Johnson checks out a customer at the cash register as patrons browse her store's collection of comic books. The 33-year-old is the owner of Amalgam Comics and Coffeehouse in Philadelphia. You might say Johnson is a superhero herself. She's the first black woman on the East Coast to own and operate a comic book store. The comic book world tends to skew heavily towards white males. That's true among comic book authors and owners. But when it comes to finding inspiration, Johnson didn't have to look far. She turned to the X-Men. "The first character that really got me excited about comics was Storm of the X-Men. A lot of that had to do with the fact that she was the first black woman I had ever seen [in comics]," said Johnson. "Seeing her I felt like I could be a part of that world." Taking the world by storm A lifelong "fan girl" of all things "geek, supernatural and superhero," Ariell said she first had the idea to open her own shop in 2003. But even before Amalgam's official opening in 2015, the
Ariell Johnson in her shop (left) and with RiRi Williams (right) on the variant cover of Invincible Iron Man #1. store was generating a lot of fanfare online. "Before we opened our doors we had over 1,000 likes on Facebook," said Johnson. "People were excited about the concept, excited about a new comic book shop in Philly, excited that it is owned by both a woman and a black woman because that is something that is not the norm in the geek world." A real "Wonder Woman" There are only five comic book shops owned by African Americans in the country, according to Yumy Odom, Founder and President of the East Coast Black Age of Comics Convention. That puts Johnson in a rare group of people and gives her the unique power to help
influence the community around her. For Amalgam that means finding books beyond the usual Spider, Bat and Supermen. "I want to be very proactive and conscious to make sure we are carrying diverse titles. The smaller stuff, the independent stuff, the more diverse stuff that you really have to look for and I think it's worth it. Seeing people representative of you can be important in your development and your self esteem," said Johnson. Even though the store is still in its first year, it's already making a difference. The East Coast Black Age of Comics closed out its convention this year at the store.
"Mrs. Johnson has created a very welcoming space for the comic book, sci-fi and fantasy communities here in Philadelphia," said Odom. Johnson wants Amalgam to become a gathering spot not only for comic book and coffee lovers, but for those she feels are overlooked by the comic book world. "There are a lot of black girl geeks in the world but we are not at the forefront. This store is also kind of a statement - we're here, we've been here and we're going to keep being here. I get a lot of little girls saying, 'This is so cool. You have a great book collection,' so, it's exciting to see." She's got it 'covered' Since Johnson has opened her store she has received quite a lot of attention with articles on CNN.com, The Grio.com and Ebony.com. But her favorite thing thus far was appearing on the cover of an actual comic. Johnson appeared on a variant cover of "Invincible Iron Man #1." She's posed next to Marvel superhero RiRi Williams. RiRi is a science genius who enrolled at MIT at the age of 15 and is the heir to Tony Starks Iron Man armor as Iron Heart.
RiRi is one of few black teen female superheros in comics. The cover is made possible by Johnson's colleague Randy Green. "When the email went out about potential variants for stores, he was really excited and took it upon himself to work out the [details]. It was really his hard work," she told ABC News. "I knew what it was supposed to look like, but having the actual art in front of you is so much different. It's really exciting." Even though she's now the "head nerd in charge," Johnson realizes the seriousness of her new position. "I think Spiderman's catch phrase applies here, 'With great power comes great responsibility'. "When you are a person of color, you're scraping the bottom of the barrel to find someone you can identify with. I always felt like I was watching other people's adventures," she explained. "I hope with my shop, I can open a new world of adventures for young people of all colors and kinds to help them find their own heroes."

Q&A with Actor Triney Sandoval who is appearing for the first time this summer at American Players Theatre in Twelfth Night, Macbeth and The Book of Will. APT: Can you tell us about yourself: Where are you from, where you live now, and what path led you to acting? TRINEY: I was born in San Diego, California, and I now live in New York City. I wasn’t one of those people who knew that they wanted to be an actor as a child. I never practiced acceptance speeches with a shampoo bottle in the mirror. I watched baseball, played with my friends, and was a mediocre student. While I did some theater in high school, I didn’t think of it as a career. After graduating, I thought maybe I’d be a doctor, so I went to the local junior college and started my pre-med general education courses. If you looked at my transcripts, however, there’s this shift that happens between my first semester and my last. It starts out mostly anatomy and physiology, with maybe one theater class, and by the end it’s mostly theatre classes and only one pre-med class. I also realized that what excited me about being a doctor was the problem solving, not the human being that’s being treated. That didn’t seem good, so I changed my major and started solving problems that aren’t life threatening. APT: You’re currently rehearsing for Lauren Gunderson’s The Book of Will, can you tell us a little
about your character Jaggard, and what it’s like to play a historical character? TRINEY: Historically, William Jaggard created one of the biggest print shops of his generation. He was one of the few printers that also published as well as partnered with booksellers to sell the works. He was the official printer of the City of London, and he published and printed some of the most beautiful and precisely created books of the era that still survive. Some people can achieve that kind of success through finding consensus with their partners. Some achieve it by approaching every situation as a contest of wits wherein one party comes out on top. The way that I read the play, Jaggard was more in the second category. He’s fiercely competitive, and not what I’d describe as “nice,” but I also think he loved working out the details of each step in a project, that he was passionate about solving the puzzle of it. There are some interesting contradictions there. Makes him fun to work on. Creating characters based on real people who are modern is a bit different than creating a historical character. If it’s someone that we know, and we’re familiar with how they looked and sounded,
there are a myriad of issues I would be thinking about. Jaggard is historical, but unknown, so I’m focused on finding the man that Lauren wrote. My process always starts with the playwright’s words, so a historical character isn’t much different than a fictional one. I try to work out who the person is based on what’s in the text, so I read and re-read the play. And then I think about it, maybe do some research, think about it some more, and always go back to what’s on the page. I looked into who Jaggard was, and we learned a bit about printing at the time, but the text is really what’s guiding me. It’s the same as playing Shakespeare’s Richard III. Historically, Richard was a pretty good king and a
decent fellow.....not so much in the play. If I’m cast in Shakespeare’s Richard III, I play his conception of the man, not history’s. In theater, the playwright is the foundational artist, and everything else flows from that. APT: You’re in the three APT productions with the largest casts this summer, what is it like working with such large ensembles? TRINEY: Personally, I’ve never found there to be much difference between being in a small cast and a large one. A small cast can sometimes gel into a cohesive unit faster, get on the same page and create their common working vocabulary, but that’s not a hard and fast rule. Especially in a situation like this. At APT there’s a Core
Company as well as actors who work here regularly. They already have a shared foundation of experiences and work; they’ve already “gelled.” So the question becomes how open is that group to having a new voice in the room, and how facile are they at incorporating that voice? My experience was that everyone at APT is extremely welcoming, open, and facile, so we became a company very quickly. (Plus, I already knew a couple of the actors, so I had an in.) APT: How are you enjoying playing in the woods for the first time? What has surprised you? TRINEY: I love working outside, and have done it all over the country. The Old Globe in San Diego is next to the zoo, and shows are intermittently punctuated by the sounds of seals and monkeys. At Shakespeare Santa Cruz I played Puck in Midsummer, directed by Tim Ocel, who I’m very excited to be working with again on The Book of Will here at APT. At the original space in Santa Cruz, “The Glen,” we got backstage by walking through a redwood glen lit only by strings of Christmas lights. It was a wonderful way to get into the world of the fairies. (Continued on pg. 13)

(Continued from pg. 13) “Up the Hill” reminds me a lot of “The Glen”. They’re both magical. What’s surprising here is how much sound comes out of the woods at night! There’s virtually a nature sound bed. It’s just beautiful. I especially notice it in Macbeth when the whippoorwills get going. Sometimes they sound lonely and sad, sometimes like they’re warning us of impending danger, and sometimes they just get on a roll. APT: When not on stage, what are your hobbies, and how do you like spending your time? TRINEY: I like to make things. I come from a family that made things. My mother made specialty candy, baked and decorated cakes, and sewed professionally on and off. The summer I was 14 I got bored, so my dad had me enclose the breezeway between our house and garage. He’d give me a set of instructions and then when he got home tell me what I had to fix, and how to fix it. I got better at both carpentry and sewing when I went to undergrad, since classes in both the scene shop and the costume shop were requirements. And I’ve just kept at it. A couple of years

ago I got to learn how to weld, which was exciting. I’d been looking for that chance for years. When I’m going to be out of town on long contracts like this one, I ship some of my woodworking tools as well as a sewing machine and serger. Since arriving in Spring Green I’ve made a few shirts and pairs of pants, and I’ve built a few tables and a bench for my apartment using scrap wood out of a trash pile from the APT scene shop. That wood pile is a great perk! APT: If you could join any band, what band would it be and why? TRINEY: Easy. Billy Joel. It would have to be okay with him that I neither play an instrument nor sing, however. When I was a kid I heard “Vienna Waits for You” at just the right time in my life. “You’ve got your passion, you’ve got your pride. But don’t you know that only fools are satisfied? Dream on, but don’t imagine they’ll all come true When will you realize, Vienna waits for you.” I’d work with the guy who wrote that song any day. APT: Anything else you’d like to add? TRINEY: Nope, but thanks for asking! (I’m amazed you got this much out of me!)
