The YMCA of Metropolitan Milwaukee hosted its 19th Annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Celebration Breakfast on Monday, January 18, 2016. The event was held at the Italian Conference Center, 631 East Chicago Street. The breakfast program celebrated the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and recognized local organizations who are dedicated to serving others, just as Dr. King did. The event included remarks from Mayor Tom Barrett, County Executive Chris Abele, and Governor Scott Walker. The breakfast program also recognized the winners of this year's Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Spoken Word Contest, sponsored by Northwestern Mutual Foundation and Jammin' 98.3 Radio. The three finalists from three different age groups were (from left) Nashaan Knox (14-18), Ayanna Bennett (10-13), and Jayda Cole (5-9). The three winners are pictured with Jammin' 98.3 marketing director LaTonya Lucas.

On Saturday, January 16, 2016 the Milwaukee Frontiers Club hosted their annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Drum Major Award Luncheon at the Wisconsin African American Women's Center, 3020 West Vliet Street. In a sermon delivered nearly 55 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., described what he called the “Drum Major Instinct” to the congregation in Atlanta's Ebenezer Baptist Church. The words he spoke that day were the inspiration for a national service award that recognizes leaders who give their time serving others but seldom seek the spotlight. This year's recipients of the Drum Major Award are all students from North Division High School. The are 10th grader Samuel Johnson (left), 12th grader Martinez Milton (center), and 10th grader Anthony LaPoint (right).

Bureau of Labor Statistics states that the black unemployment rate is 16 percent, almost three times the national average. There can be debates about which source is more accurate but the rate is too high no matter which source is used.
When looking at the challenges confronting our community, it is difficult to focus on one issue.

Churches setting the example in sheltering homeless Last week Alderman Bob Donovan publicly recognized and thanked Ascension Lutheran Church for offering a safe and warm refuge to the homeless or without adequate heat during last week's bitter cold weather. "The church is definitely practicing what it preaches and are perfect examples of how an institution can do its part to help vulnerable individuals in the community," said Donovan. Donovan went on to recognize Angels Among Us for their outreach and persistence in urging organizations (including churches) to step up and offer assistance to the homeless in Milwaukee. Sadly, the need is increasing as our homeless population is growing, and the efforts of groups such as Angels Among Us are needed each and every day. Donovan urge citizens, churches and organizations to open up their hearts (and doors) to help those in need this winter. Government has its role to play, but in my view we don’t need more government programs to address certain needs and issues, he said. The private sector and many churches have
the space and the resources to help shelter homeless during times of bitter cold temperatures. At the same time Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett announced the Greater Greater New Birth Church New Birth Church at 82nd Street and Silver Spring Drive on the city's northwest side is opening its doors to those out on the street.

Rebuilding Our Community
By Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D. Special to the Milwaukee Times
Becoming a good leader There are a countless number of definitions, books and at least two dozen theories about leaders and leadership. Some of these definitions, books and theories are more known than others, but each of them has been used over time to bring attention to understand what it is, how to develop and to make it work in a given context and culture. It is understandable to note that some leadership styles do not work in all situations, organizations and communities. They call that a “good fit,” so they say, however that is another story for another day. We all can agree that there is a tremendous need for more training on how to become a good leader or to improve one’s leadership skills. The traits and talents to lead are common and instilled in
all of us; however it is the development, experience and refinement of those hidden skills that make all the difference in the world. Of course this is where the concern lies; are we willing to make the commitment and to do what is necessary to become stronger in our leadership abilities? Bennis & Nanus in their book, “Leaders: The Strategies for Taking Charge,” view leadership as a part of its
context and that leadership is the wise use of power. Heifetz in his book, “Leadership Without Easy Answers,” views leadership by its value. For him leadership has two images. The first image means influencing the community to follow the leader’s vision and secondly, it is influencing the community to face its problems. Stephen R. Covey in his book, “Principle-Centered Leadership,” sees leadership as having four levels including
personal, interpersonal, managerial and organizational. DePree in his book, “Leadership is an Art,” views leadership as defined reality. Of course there are many, many more definitions as well as a few well known theories including Servant Leadership (Greenleaf), Authentic Leadership (Avolio & Luthans), Charismatic Leadership (Weber) and Transformational Leadership (Burns). One thing is clear, there has been a lot written and training developed on leadership and that is good to know. There is no shortage of research, practical application and scenario - based illustrations from which to draw upon to highlight the successes and failures of leadership. But the bottom line is this; we can only become better at what we do
when we continue to be open to lifelong learning about what it takes to be an effective leader. For in real terms, a leader is a person who leads people with a purpose. What do you see?

Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream lives in acts of justice big and small
PHONE________________________
_______________________________
The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., had to have known as he delivered his famous “I Have a Dream” speech 53 years ago that the moment would change a nation. After the historic March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, King stood before a sea of 250,000 people gathered Aug. 28, 1963, below the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. He rose to the occasion, departing from his prepared text to deliver a passionate message, words that would become the most pivotal and signature moment of the civil rights movement. Today, America is better and more diverse than King could have envisioned back in 1963, when just weeks after his speech, four little girls would die in the Sunday morning bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, AL, a racially hostile and divided city known in the civil rights movement as “Bombingham.”
and grandchildren are growing up in a nation that is closer to realizing King’s dream than the America he knew. It is a trek that continues to this day. President Barack Obama’s speech at the Lincoln Memorial to mark the 50th anniversary of King’s speech focused on civil rights and race relations. Dallas City Council member Dwaine Caraway called for a conversation about race. And a racial-justice think tank held its national conference on race in North Texas.
For dreams to endure, however, they must transcend moments of doubt and touch future generations whose accomplishments confirm the righteousness of the struggle. Had he lived to see 2016, King would
have celebrated the symbolic breakthrough of a two-term president who shared his skin color, but he also would have shed bitter tears of anger and sadness over new legal scuffles over voting rights, crime in poor minority neighbor-

King was right that day in 1963, when beneath the towering presence of the Great Emancipator, he said, “Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed. Let us not wallow in the valley of despair.” Because many did exactly as he preached, their children An NCON Communications Publication

Keeping children healthy, in school, and learning missing school. The PIAs make a home visit that same day if they don’t reach anyone, about 80 visits each day. If a child is home sick, the PIA asks about their insurance status and, if the student lacks coverage, offers the parent assistance filling out the application. During a recent phone call, a mother told the PIA all three of her children were previously enrolled in Medicaid but were no longer covered. The mother, whose native language was not English, had received three notices about renewing coverage but hadn’t understood them, and had not been able to renew. The PIA helped her navigate the process to reenroll the children in Medicaid. Sandra Rodriguez, the district’s PIA Coordinator, is especially excited they have a new school-based health center attached to the district headquarters to refer families to through a partnership with the Doctors Hospital at Renaissance. The clinic serves all students regardless of ability to pay and served about 2,000 children, parents, and school district staff in its first four months of operation. For many Edinburg families this is the first time they can receive care near their home, school, and work, and regardless of their

positive connection between health and academic success. Many now see a link between chronic absences, poor health and lack of health coverage. When children with chronic conditions like asthma have health insurance allowing them regular access to doctors and needed treatment, they come back to school healthier just as Brandon has. In one of these districts, the Edinburg Consolidated Independent School District (ECISD) in Texas’ Rio Grande Valley, health coverage screening has been built into the daily operations of Parental Involvement Assistants, or PIAs. Each of the district’s 41 school campuses has a PIA who, among other responsibilities, calls absent students’ homes every morning to ask why students are
immigration status. Thanks to additional support from another local health system, the 945-square-mile district will soon have two mobile clinics making scheduled visits to school campuses farther from the clinic site. More students and families need these kinds of supports. It is critically important that school districts and community partners across the country respond to Acting Secretary King’s and Secretary Burwell’s call to action to connect children to needed health coverage and ensure they’re in school and ready to learn. As Superintendent Lillian Maldonado French of the Mountain View School District in El Monte, California puts it, “Being in school matters and if we can do something to make sure our kids are in school every day, then that’s what we need to do.” Marian Wright Edelman is President of the Children's Defense Fund whose Leave No Child Behind® mission is to ensure every child a Healthy Start, a Head Start, a Fair Start, a Safe Start and a Moral Start in life and successful passage to adulthood with the help of caring families and communities.

physical activity, and health education; and Building local partnerships and participating in hospital community needs assessments. The Departments of Health and Human Services and Education have created a toolkit of existing resources to support real action in states and communities to strengthen the link between health and education. CDF and AASA’s school-based child health outreach and enrollment model that links health enrollment to school enrollment is one the Secretaries highlight as a best practice to increase enrollment in health coverage for students and their families. After five years of piloting schoolbased child health outreach and enrollment in Texas, in 2007 CDF began working in partnership with AASA to introduce and expand health enrollment as a routine and ongoing part of school district operations. The model provides a basic question for districts to add to their school registration materials: “What type of medical insurance do you have for this child?” Parents who answer “none” are noted and able to receive information from school district staff on Medicaid, CHIP or other health coverage options. But it doesn’t stop there. Parents can receive help applying for or renewing coverage for their children and for themselves and are introduced to community partners who can help them successfully navigate the process. CDF and AASA over the years have partnered with school districts in Texas, California, Georgia, Louisiana, and Mississippi including urban, rural and suburban school systems serving elementary through high schools and hundreds of thousands of Black, Latino, Asian and White students. This work has gotten many children health coverage and led to an increased awareness among school superintendents, staff and parents about the important and

Brandon, a six-year-old in the Houston Independent School District, had two working parents until his father was laid off. Brandon lost his health insurance when his father lost his job. Brandon’s mother quickly scrambled to try to enroll her son who has asthma in new coverage, but met some obstacles and didn’t know where to turn. Then the school district, which had been working with the Children’s Defense Fund (CDF) and AASA (The School Superintendents Association), through a partnership supported by The Atlantic Philanthropies, stepped in and helped her find coverage for Brandon under the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). With his new health coverage, doctors discovered Brandon also had high blood pressure and prescribed medicine to control it. Now the school nurse monitors his blood pressure every day and Brandon is healthy and happy to be in school learning. This morning, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Acting Deputy Secretary Mary Wakefield on behalf of HHS Secretary Sylvia Burwell and Acting U.S. Department of Education Secretary John King spoke from Brandon’s school district to encourage other districts across our country to take important steps to ensure children everywhere are in school each day healthy and ready to learn. They called on school districts to recognize the strong link between children’s health and academic performance and to forge deeper connections between health and education for students and families by increasing access to health insurance coverage and health care, creating school environments with physical and mental health supports to help students succeed, and strengthening coordination between health and education systems at the local and state levels. The Secretaries urged state and local health and education entities to collaborate around five action items: Helping eligible students and family members enroll in health insurance; Providing and expanding Medicaid reimbursable health services in schools, including immunizations, health screenings and others; Providing or expanding services that support at-risk students, including through Medicaid-funded case management; Promoting healthy school practices through nutrition,

The Counseling Corner By Rev. Judith T. Lester, B.Min. M.Th
Living a life that matters: Success takes work (Week 3) It takes practice, training and cultivation of talent to become more than a potential. Living a life that matters requires hard work in every area of life. The third installment of this series is a reminder that success takes work if one is hopeful of living a life that matters. Lesson #3: Success Takes Work Success is something that we all want to achieve in our lives. The type of success can vary greatly from individual to individual. Some people want nothing more than to be happily married, buy a home, raise a family and raise their children well. While others strive for success academically and become as highly educated as they can. Some people are more focused on their careers. Since every type of success is different, every road to success is different; but everyone’s route has one thing in common: IT TAKES HARD WORK! Academic success comes to those who work hard. Parents, encourage young people that academic success is something that they
must work hard to achieve. Successful students are those that are willing to put the work in. Even if a person is brainy, if they do not put forth the effort to learn and work hard on assignments and projects given, they will not be successful. While intelligence gives students an advantage, this is where the buck stops. Those students who get the results they want are those students who work hard. When it comes to one’s personal relationship, making an investment emotionally in relationships requires time but it is time well spent. Couples who have been together for many years will tell
you that a good relationship did not come by accident; it took effort, compromise and addressing any issues or conflicts that arose in the relationship. In other words, a good relationship takes HARD WORK!
Beloved, as the industrious ant demonstrates, if one is desirous of living a life that matters, one must consider that success at anything takes effort and hard work indeed.

Bible Scripture for the week from The Book of Psalms
A psalm of David. O Lord, hear my plea for justice. Listen to my cry for help. Pay attention to my prayer, for it comes from honest lips. Declare me innocent, for you see those who do right. You have tested my thoughts and examined my heart in the night. You have scrutinized me and found nothing wrong. I am determined not to sin in what I say. I have followed your commands, which keep me from following cruel and evil people. My steps have stayed on your path; I have not wavered from following you. I am praying to you because I know you will answer, O God. Bend down and listen as I pray. Show me your unfailing love in wonderful ways. By your mighty power you rescue those who seek refuge from their enemies. Guard me as you would guard your own eyes. Hide me in the shadow of your wings. Protect me from wicked people who attack me, from murderous enemies who surround me. They are without pity. Listen to their boasting! They track me down and surround me, watching for the chance to throw me to the ground. They are like hungry lions, eager to tear me apart—like young lions hiding in ambush. Arise, O Lord! Stand against them, and bring them to their knees! Rescue me from the wicked with your sword! By the power of your hand, O Lord, destroy those who look to this world for their reward. But satisfy the hunger of your treasured ones. May their children have plenty, leaving an inheritance for their descendants. Because I am righteous, I will see you. When I awake, I will see you face to face and be satisfied. - Psalm 17 Holy Bible, New Living Translation

Devoted educator surprised with award for decades of support for Dr. King celebration program Milwaukee Public Schools, the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts and McDonald’s Restaurants of Southeastern Wisconsin surprised a teacher Wednesday, January 13, 2016, morning with recognition for long-standing support of the annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Celebration event through student-oriented programming. The award is presented each year to a teacher who has contributed annually to the writing, speech and or art competitions and incorpo-
rated the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., program into his or her teaching curriculum. This year’s winner is Ms. Constance Michaud, a first grade teacher at MPS’ Fairview School. Dedicated to the program for 31 years, Ms. Michaud has displayed loyal commitment to the event's art and writing contests by encouraging her students both individually and in her school community as a whole. Her students have frequently submitted contest-winning entries over the years.
For her exceptional efforts and dedication to the program, Fairview Principal Ebbie L. Wells, representatives from the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts and Ronald McDonald recognized Ms. Michaud with a plaque and other gifts. The award is sponsored by McDonald’s Restaurants of Southeastern Wisconsin. This year will marked the 32nd Martin Luther King, Jr. Birthday Celebration in Milwaukee - one of just two cities that have celebrated the holiday annually since 1984.
MPS state assessments provide snapshot of student achievement in state District-wide efforts designed to improve student achievement in place; promising results in some grades
Milwaukee Public Schools’ students in middle school grades posted steady improvement in English language arts on the Wisconsin Student Assessment System exams taken during the 201415 school year, according to results released recently by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. MPS students in 3rd through 8th grade participated in the Badger and Dynamic Learning Maps (DLM) exams. The DLM is an alternative assessment given to students with severe cognitive disabilities. Of all 3rd through 8th grade students, 27 percent scored proficient or advanced in English language arts. Students in middle school showed an upward trend in proficiency in English language arts. While 22 percent of 6th graders scoring proficient or advanced, the number climbed to 29 percent of 7th graders and 33 percent of 8th graders. “It is critical that we build on the progress we are making at middle school grades,” said MPS Superintendent Darienne Driver. “While it is a step in a positive direction, we still have significant work to do at all grade levels. We have several initiatives in place that are focusing our efforts on improving student outcomes and we will continue to work hard until all students achieve at high levels.” Seventeen percent of students in 3rd through 8th grade scored proficient or advanced in mathematics. Statewide, 44 percent of 3rd through 8th graders were proficient or advanced in mathematics and 52 percent were proficient or advanced in English language arts. Also released were ACT results and results for the high school DLM. The ACT is a college admissions exam
• Expansion of online academic supports to increase reading and writing in science in social studies for middle and high school students • Continuation and evaluation of a variety of tutoring programs in all MPS schools • Alignment of community partnerships to the district’s reading focus
taken by students nationwide and it measures the college readiness of 11th grade students. The ACT is more rigorous than the test it replaced, the Wisconsin Knowledge and Concepts Examination, which tested the proficiency of 10th graders. Twenty-two percent of all MPS 11th graders scored proficient or advanced in English language arts and 10 percent were proficient or advanced in mathematics compared to 45 percent and 26 percent statewide. Current efforts underway district-wide to improve student outcomes include: • Development of a focus on literacy throughout the district, with an enhanced reading curriculum in kindergarten through 3rd grade and a high school focus on reading, writing, speaking, listening and language across the curriculum • Implementation of a mathematics curriculum in 4th and 8th grade that emphasizes Algebra Readiness • Creation of one-on-one and small group support sessions during the school day for students, including reading and mathematics at high school

• The Badger, ACT, and DLM assessments replace
Wisconsin Knowledge and Concepts Examinations and Wisconsin Alternative Assessments for Students with Disabilities that were administered in 3rd through 8th grade and 10th grade in prior years. Because the 2014-15 assessments were taken in spring rather than fall and were based on different standards, the Department of Public Instruction states that comparison to results from prior years are not advised.

Lead astray: Why the toxic water in Flint, MI should concern you, too Like air, we all need water to live. And like air, something so vital to life should be free. But what happens when the water flowing freely from your tap is killing you? In October 2015, officials in Michigan declared the water in Flint, Michigan a “public health emergency” after a group of doctors reported high levels of lead in the blood samples in area children. Numerous studies link the neurotoxin to lower IQs and increased emotional and behavioral problems. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), lead levels in Flint’s drinking water are so high they are defined as hazardous waste. On January 16, 2016 President Barack Obama declared a federal emergency in Flint, freeing up to $5 million in federal aid to immediately assist with the public health crisis, but he denied Gov. Rick Snyder’s request for a disaster declaration. A disaster declaration would have made larger amounts of federal funding available more quickly to help Flint residents whose drinking water is contaminated with lead. But under federal law, only natural disasters such as hurricanes and floods are eligible for disaster declarations, federal and state officials said. The lead contamination of Flint’s drinking water is a manmade catastrophe, which points back to the lack of movement from the Governor to act when this issue immediately took place. Since Flint’s water supply was switched from Detroit to the Flint River, a move to potentially save the city $7 million, the tap water now con-
tains twice the amount of lead. Experts cite the smelly, funny tasting and brown corrosive water is releasing lead from old pipes in homes. This, however, isn’t a new concern – in Flint and many other U.S. cities. A July 2015 article in The Atlantic reported that the U.S. received a grade “D” in the drinking water category of the American Society for Civil Engineers’ Report Card for America’s Infrastructure released in 2013. The Atlantic wrote: The report found that most of the nation’s drinking-water infrastructure is “nearing the end of its useful life.” Replacing the nation’s pipes would cost more than $1 trillion. The country’s wastewater infrastructure also got a “D” grade. If pipes and drinking-water infrastructures aren’t upgraded, other cities across the country could become the new Flint, a scary fate particularly for children, the highest risk group. “A child with lead poisoning presents with nothing. They are completely asymptomatic,” said Mona Hanna-Attisha, director of the pediatric residency program at Hurley Children’s Hospital at Michigan State University and the doctor who released the blood-test results in early October. “But in five years there’s an increased likelihood that the kid’s going to need special-education services. In 10 years, there’s an increased likelihood that the kid’s going to have ADHD, mental health issues, and behavior issues. And in 20 years, it’s going to be a problem with the criminal justice system.”
Silent dangers of lead poisoning Lead is a naturally occurring toxic metal and is often used in industries such as mining and manufacturing. There is no “safe” amount of lead exposure, as over time it accumulates in the brain, bones, kidney and liver. Because signs and symptoms typically don’t appear until dangerous amounts have accumulated, lead poisoning can be hard to detect at first. Lead poisoning symptoms in children may look like: • Developmental delay • Learning difficulties • Irritability • Loss of appetite • Weight loss • Sluggishness and fatigue • Abdominal pain • Vomiting • Constipation • Hearing loss Symptoms in newborns exposed to lead in the womb: • Learning difficulties • Slowed growth Lead poisoning symptoms in adults may present as: • High blood pressure • Abdominal pain • Constipation • Joint pains • Muscle pain
• Declines in mental functioning • Pain, numbness or tingling of the extremities • Headache • Memory loss • Mood disorders • Reduced sperm count, abnormal sperm • Miscarriage or premature birth in pregnant women Testing for lead poisoning The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend doctors and parents follow the recommendations of their state or local health department when it comes to testing. f your area doesn’t have any specific lead testing recommendations, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends your child be tested for lead levels at ages 1 and 2. Your doctor may also suggest lead screening if your child is older, but hasn’t yet been screened for lead. Doctors usually use a simple blood test to detect lead poisoning. A small blood sample is taken from a finger prick or from a vein. Lead levels in the blood are measured in micrograms per deciliter (mcg/dL). A level of 5 mcg/dL or higher indicates your child may have unsafe levels of lead in their blood and should have their blood tested periodically. If levels become too high — generally 45 mcg/dL or higher — your child should be treated. Prevention Ideally, the first step is to remove the source of contamination (0r potential contamination). Professionally replacing old plumbing and lead paint, and in the case of Flint, MI, changing the water source. In Flint, residents are currently being advised
to use only cold water for drinking, cooking and making baby formula, and certified filters. As a general practice, the following tips from the Mayo Clinic may also help protect you and your family from lead poisoning: Wash hands and toys. To help reduce hand-to-mouth transfer of contaminated dust or soil, wash your children’s hands after outdoor play, before eating and at bedtime. And wash their toys regularly. Clean dusty surfaces. Clean your floors with a wet mop and wipe furniture, windowsills and other dusty surfaces with a damp cloth. Run cold water. If you have older plumbing containing lead pipes or fittings, run your cold water for at least a minute before using. Don’t use hot tap water to make baby formula or for cooking. Prevent children from playing on soil. Provide them with a sandbox that’s covered when not in use. Plant grass or cover bare soil with mulch. Eat a healthy diet. Regular meals and good nutrition may help lower lead absorption. Children especially need enough calcium and iron in their diets. What’s the solution? The problems arose after the city broke away from Detroit’s water system in 2014 and began taking water from the Flint River to save money. Please make sure to follow your city’s department of water, their resolutions, and if their are any plans to divert the original source of water All of those factor into your quality of water.
How friendships are good for your health at every stage of life Does your circle dictate your health? A new study from researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill says yes. In fact, the study’s two decades of research indicates that there is a causal relationship between your crew and how long you live because your social integration is related to your physical condition. That means that although you can’t just kick your workout regimen and healthy diet to the curb, you should make sure that you have a social life. It’s as important as how active we are and what we choose to eat. “Based on these findings, it should be as important to encourage adolescents and young adults to build broad social relationships and social skills for interacting with others as it is to eat healthy and be physically active,” said UNC-Chapel Hill professor Kathleen Mullan Harris in a press release.

money issues on time and on track. Recommit to retirement. If you're employed or self-employed, here's how to make a retirement savings resolution stick. First, make sure you're signed up for a 401(k), 403(b) or 457 plan at work or a corresponding SEPIRA, self-directed 401(k) or other self-employment retirement plan that fits your tax and financial situation. Then check what your 2016 maximum contribution (www.irs.gov) is for your respective plan. Finally, through budgeting or a plan to bring in more income, determine how you can come as close to your maximum contribution as possible for the coming year. And of course, don't forget about Traditional or Roth IRAs (https://www. irs.gov/Retirement-Plans/ Traditional-and-Roth-IRAs) that you can contribute to independently of work-based plans. All of these options can improve your retirement prospects while saving you considerable money on taxes.
And while the study ( h t t p s : / / w w w. s h a r e care.com/health/ healthy-new-years-resolutions/article/the-resolution-solution) showed that roughly 40-46 percent were successful in their specific goal at the six-month mark, more than half gave up. calmoneyskills.com/budget- generally covers three-to-six ing) so you know where your months of daily expenses – Your personal finances finances stand at all times. yours could be more or less. need more dedication than Budgeting involves day-to- Keep in mind that the primathat. day tracking of finances, but ry purpose of an emergenhaving a quick way to deter- cy fund is to keep you away If you want to add some mine your net worth (http:// from savings when unexfairly easy money resolutions www.practicalmoneyskills. pected expenses happen. that can help your finances com/worth) – your assets overall, consider the follow- minus your liabilities – ofGo paperless.

Special: Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., led the civil rights movement and fought for racial equality with something much stronger than tolerance By Charles Gilmer The lingering vestiges of America's racist past present a serious challenge to the hope that many hold for a nation that lives out its most cherished values - liberty and justice for all. Persistent recurrences of racial incidents such as Ferguson, MO, remind us that hatred and animosity still fester. Suspicion lurks under the surface of many interactions. Even the government's response to Hurricane Katrina has been criticized as manifesting discernible racial discrepancies. Movies like "Crash," and the news coverage of the Duke University lacrosse team sex-party debacle, and even the prospect of a Black presidential nominee in the 2008 election remind us of the tenuous and fragile nature of racial harmony in the United States of America. We seem to live under an uneasy truce. It has been five decades since the 1963 March on Washington where Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech was delivered. Yet none of us can say we have fully lived up to Dr. King's vision of a land where each person would be judged by the content of their character, rather than the color of their skin. Tensions continue, and weekly we hear of yet another incident somewhere in our country where race is presented as a precipitating factor. Things are different today than they were 50 years ago. Yet the questions remains;
why has it been so difficult for us to embrace and consistently live out Dr. King's dream? What has become of Martin Luther King's dream? In the wake of the civil rights movement in which Dr. King was so dramatically used, there came a flood of social programs that sought to address the causes and consequences of racism. Cultural education, cross cultural dialogue, and the current multi-culturalism all hearken back to the civil rights movement for their mandates. In the pursuit of the rights of various groups, under the civil rights umbrella, one thing has become clear. That which was called right by one group is often called wrong by another. Rather than resolving the differences, tolerance is championed as the appropriate response to the varying perspectives that have emerged. Yet tolerance has no cohesive nor healing power in society. It means little more than leaving one another alone. It leads to indifference, not understanding. Tolerance allows the gulfs between us to remain in place. In fact, there is little in the concept of tolerance to pull us away from racial isolation. Tolerance brings with it an implicit moral relativism. Who is to say what is right and what is wrong? Moral relativism suggests that there are no absolutes to which we
can all be held accountable. Such a thing was far from the thinking of Martin Luther King. In one of his works Dr. King made the following statements: "At the center of the Christian faith is the affirmation that there is a God in the universe who is the ground and essence of all reality. A Being of infinite love and boundless power, God is the creator, sustainer, and conserver of values....In contrast to the ethical relativism of [totalitarianism], Christianity sets forth a system of absolute moral values and affirms that God has placed within the very structure of this universe certain moral principles that are fixed and immutable." Dr. King did not speak in terms of tolerance. His ideal was love. "Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that." (Strength to Love, p. 51) Yet, in current discussions of race relations the word love is seldom mentioned.
“We must act now.� Thank you to all who participated and congratulations to the 2015 speech contest winners.

2K16011-GJ-MT
We Energies is privileged to sponsor the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Speech Contest. Over the past 32 years, more than 1,800 students have honored his legacy with their voices.
Dr. King insisted love was the dominant or critical value by which we could overcome racial strife. The love he spoke of was a biblical love, one that is unconditional, unselfish and seeks the absolute good of another party. That kind of love is a tough love, one that confronts wrong and injustice with the truth -- absolute truth as decreed by an all powerful God and enables the individual to love their enemy. Martin Luther King's Dream As we consider giving new life to "The Dream," we have to acknowledge that, in Dr. King's speaking and writing, "The Dream" does begin with God. For without God, there is no absolute transcendent truth on which to base a call to justice. Nor is there any source from which to draw the strength to love about which he spoke. A certain degree of skepticism about this perspective is understandable. Too often, those who claim to be Christians have failed to live in keeping with the clear teachings of the Christian Scriptures. These failures have frequently been in matters of race. It is clear from the Bible (and Dr. King affirmed) that the church ought to provide spiritual and moral leadership in society. However, as we observe the history of the American church, many parts of it have been passive, or even regressive, in matters of race. Even in the current era, the church speaks to the issues of the day with a fragmented voice. A case in point is the tendency for African American clergy to align with Democratic candidates, while many white pastors align with Republicans. Yet, Dr. King implored people not to dismiss Christianity on the basis of these observations. Dr. King lived in an era when the leadership of the church in addressing racism was even less credible than it is today. Dr. King clearly understood that too often there was a difference between what Christianity taught in the Bible and the varieties of Christianity observed around him. His life was devoted to challenging this nation to live out a more consistent obedience to the moral absolutes of the Bible. His repeated plea was for men and women to enter into the kind of personal relationship with God that transcended that which could be seen and that which
was being experienced. Hear Dr. King as he speaks to the man or woman who contends that God is unnecessary or irrelevant to our modern lives: "At times we may feel that we do not need God, but on the day when the storms of disappointment rage, the winds of disaster blow, and the tidal waves of grief beat against our lives, if we do not have a deep and patient faith, our emotional lives will be ripped to shreds. There is so much frustration in the world because we have relied on gods rather than God. We have genuflected before the god of science only to find that it has given us the atomic bomb, producing fears and anxieties that science can never mitigate. We have worshiped the god of pleasure only to discover that thrills play out and sensations are short-lived. We have bowed before the god of money only to learn that there are such things as love and friendship that money cannot buy and that in a world of possible depressions, stock market crashes, and bad business investments, money is a rather uncertain deity. These transitory gods are not able to save us or bring happiness to the human heart. Only God is able. "It is faith in Him that we must rediscover. With this faith we can transform bleak and desolate valleys into sunlit paths of joy and bring new light into the dark caverns of pessimism." (Strength to Love, p. 51) Are you discouraged about the prospect of us never overcoming the racial divisiveness that permeates this nation? Or are you frustrated by your inability to genuinely love others who are different from you? Martin Luther King recommended faith in Jesus of Nazareth as antidotes for both maladies. "Evil can be cast out, not by man alone nor by a dictatorial God who invades our lives, but when we open the door and invite God through Christ to enter. 'Behold, I stand at the door, and knock; if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.' God is too courteous to break open the door, but when we open it in faith believing, a divine and human confrontation will transform our sin-ruined lives into radiant personalities." (Strength to Love, p. 126). Racial equality A relationship with God gives us the power to overcome whatever sin we may be struggling with, including the sin of racism. Racism stands not only as a barrier between people, but as an offense between us and God. (Continued on pg. 16)

The reason Dr. King could recommend Christ as a solution to the problem of racism is Jesus' death on the cross paid the price for all of our sins. He then rose from the dead and now offers us the forgiveness of God and the power to live new lives. Dr. King put it this way: "Man is a sinner in need of God's forgiving grace. This is not deadening pessimism; it is Christian realism." (Strength to Love, p. 51) Our need for Jesus is truly the great equalizer of the races. We all are sinners in need of a Savior. We all stand before God, not on the basis of one race's superiority over another, morally, culturally, financially, politically, or in any other way. “Evil can be cast out, not by man alone nor by a dictatorial God who invades our lives, but when we open the door and invite God through Christ to enter.” —MLK All the races of the world, all the cultures of the world, need the same Savior. His name is Jesus. What Martin Luther King described as our need for a "divine and human confrontation" is offered at God's initiative. It requires that we place our faith in what Jesus did as our own personal payment for sin, and inviting Him to enter our lives "when we open the door and invite God through Christ to enter." Dr. King's words still ring true today. We can give new life to "The Dream," following the path of Dr. King. Our path may not lead to martyrdom by an assassin's bullet as it did for Martin Luther King, but it does lead to dying to our selfish ways and self-sufficiency. Such a faith is not a weak-kneed, escapist religious exercise, but a courageous pursuit of that which is ultimately good, right and true. "In his magnanimous love, God freely offers to do for us what we cannot do for ourselves. Our humble and openhearted acceptance is faith. So by faith we are saved. Man filled with God and God operating through man bring unbelievable changes in our individual and social lives." (Strength to Love, p. 51) "The Dream" starts with God as revealed through His Son, Jesus Christ. Through a relationship with Him, we can be agents of healing in a world that is sick with racial and ethnic conflict. Won't you seriously consider placing your faith in Christ, as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. did? God offers us this relationship with Him, and we simply respond: Jesus Christ, I invite you to come into my life, to forgive

Thursday, January 21: Eric Himpton Holder, Jr., was born in The Bronx, New York, in 1951 to parents who emigrated from Barbados. He was then appointed by President Ronald Reagan to serve as an Associate Judge of the Superior Court of the District of Columbia in 1988. In 1993 he was appointed U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia by President Bill Clinton. In 1997, Holder became Deputy Attorney General under Janet Reno. In late 2007, Holder joined Barack Obama’s successful presidential campaign as a senior legal adviser and on Dec. 1, 2008, he became Attorney General, the first black person to lead each of the positions mentioned above. He submitted his resignation from this post in September 2014. Friday, January 22: Physician and humanitarian Justina Ford was born in 1871. She graduated from Herring Medical College in Chicago in 1899 and soon moved to Denver, Colorado. Throughout her career, Dr. Ford faced the obstacles of being both African American and a woman. She was the first black woman physician licensed to practice medicine in Colorado. As a doctor breaking down barriers for blacks and women, Dr. Ford also worked as a humanitarian: her expertise in gynecology, obstetrics, and pediatrics was often provided to low-income and indigent people of all races. The Colorado Medical Society, which denied Ford membership until 1950, passed a resolution in 1989 honoring her posthumously “as an outstanding figure in the development and furtherance of health care in Colorado.” She died in 1952. Saturday, January 23: The 24th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was passed in 1964. Since the legal end of slavery a number of states had devised various methods to deny the right to vote to African Americans. The 24th Amendment prohibited states charging a ‘poll tax’, or fee in order to vote. Sunday, January 24: Legendary guitarist Elizabeth Cotten’s birth in late January 1893 is celebrated on this date. Cotten first learned to play the banjo at the age of eight, she soon moved on to her brother’s guitar, laying it flat on her lap. By the age of 12 she was working as a domestic, and three years later gave birth to her first child. As a young mother joining the church, she gave up the guitar, playing rarely for the next 25 years. In the early 1940s, she moved to Washington, D.C., where she began working as a domestic for folk singer Charles Seeger and his family. When the Seegers heard Cotton’s guitar skills a decade later, they recorded her for Folkways, and in 1957 she issued her debut LP, Folksongs and Instrumentals. The track “Freight Train,” written when she was 12, became a Top Five hit in the England. This motivated her to write new material, which appeared on her second album, Shake Sugaree. Cotten did not retire from domestic work until 1970, and did not tour actively until the end of that decade. She won a National Endowment for the Arts National Heritage Fellowship Award as well as a Grammy, both during the final years of her life. She was one of the most influential guitarists to surface during the roots music revival era. She died on June 29, 1987. Monday, January 25: Alicia Keys was born in 1980. She is a Jamaican-American singer, songwriter, musician, record producer, actress, music video director, philanthropist, and author. Tuesday, January 26: Angela Davis was born in 1944. She is an African American educator and political activist. After relocating to Southern California to complete her master’s degree, she became involved with the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the Black Panthers, and the Communist Party. Though hired in 1969 to teach philosophy at UCLA, Davis was fired soon afterwards because of her affiliation with the Communist Party. Though her case was appealed and overturned by the Supreme Court, by that time she was in hiding because in August 1970, two prisoners at Soledad Prison attempted to escape and were killed. The weapons used were traced to Davis who was briefly on the FBI’s 10 most wanted list. After apprehension she was jailed for almost a year and a half before being tried for murder and conspiracy. In June 1972, she was acquitted of both charges. In 2014, Davis returned to UCLA as a Regents’ Lecturer and delivered a public lecture on May 8 in Royce Hall, where she had her first lecture 45 years earlier.

He continued to play for the Pros as well as coach. The APFA was renamed the NFL in 1922. Pollard continued as coach of Akron until 1926. He went on to coach NFL teams in Indiana and Milwaukee before retiring in 1937 to a career in business. He was the only black person to coach in the NFL until the 1990s. www.milwaukeetimesnews.com

Public Notification of a Seizure Research Study in Milwaukee County Researchers at the Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin, Froedtert Hospital, and the Medical College of Wisconsin are studying the best way to treat long seizures. This study will begin in January 2016. This study will compare three commonly used medicines given in the emergency department for long seizures. A person whose seizure does not stop even after receiving a full dose of medicine that can stop seizures (benzodiazepines) has a long seizure. This means that doctors need to use other medicines besides benzodiazepines. Researchers do not know which of the medicines will work the best. The three common medicines are fosphenytoin, valproic acid, and levetiracetam. The study plans to learn which of the three medicines works the best to stop a seizure quickly. Normally, researchers get permission before a person can be included in a research study. A long seizure is an emergency and the doctors have to act quickly to treat a person. This means that there is little time to get permission. A person having a seizure is unconscious and cannot agree to join. In studies like this, a person’s consent before treatment is not possible. This is called an exception from informed consent for emergency circumstances. Researchers will discuss the study with the patient or family as soon as possible. This study meets the U.S. Food and Drug Administration guidelines for exception from informed consent under emergency circumstances. Opting out of this study: Any adult who does not wish to be enrolled in this study may opt-out by wearing an opt-out bracelet or necklace. These may be requested free of charge by calling (414) 805-6493 or emailing ESETT@mcw.edu. Any parent/ guardian of a child 17 years and younger that does not wish their child to be enrolled in this study may call (414)-805-6493 or email ESETT@mcw.edu to discuss the opt-out options. For information about the study or to request to not be included, please call Dr. Tom Aufderheide or Dr. Danny Thomas at (414) 805-6493, email at ESETT@mcw.edu, or visit the website at www.mcw.edu/ESETT. www.milwaukeetimesnews.com
