Colin Powell, first black US Secretary of State, dies of COVID-19 complications amid cancer battle

Colin Powell, the retired four-star general who became the country's first black Secretary of State and chairman of the Joints Chiefs of Staff, died Monday, October 18, 2021 due to complications from COVID-19, his family said in a statement on Facebook. Powell, 84, was fully vaccinated from COVID-19, his family said, and had been treated at Walter Reed National Medical Center. "We have lost a remarkable and loving husband, father, grandfather and a great American," the family said. Powell had multiple myeloma, a cancer of a type of white blood cell. It’s unclear

what complications he experienced from COVID-19 or when he tested positive for the disease. The family also did not say when he was vaccinated or if he had received a booster shot. Powell became the first black Secretary of State under President George W. Bush. As the nation’s chief diplomat, Powell delivered a wellknown speech to the United Nations Security Council in February 2003 laying out the White House argument for invading Iraq and stating that there was intelligence that the country had weapons of mass destruction. U.S. troops launched an invasion the following month. The evidence

he presented about Iraq having biological weapons was later proven to be incorrect. Powell left the administration shortly after Bush’s re-election in 2004. Powell later expressed regret over the infamous remarks before the U.N., saying

in a 2005 interview with ABC News' Barbara Walters that it would tarnish his reputation and describing it as a "blot" on his record that "was painful then" and "painful now." Bush said in a statement Monday that he and former first lady Laura Bush were “deeply saddened” by Powell’s death. “He was a great public servant, starting with his time as a soldier during Vietnam," Bush said. "Many presidents relied on General Powell’s counsel and experience. He was such a favorite of presidents that he earned the Presidential Medal of Freedom — twice. He was highly respected at home and

abroad. And most important, Colin was a family man and a friend." After rising through the military ranks, Powell became a four-star general and then chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President George H.W. Bush. He had served as U.S. national security adviser and deputy national security adviser for President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. Powell served twice in Vietnam — during the first tour, he was wounded in action and on the second tour, he received the Soldier's Medal for rescuing several men from a burning helicopter.

On October 14-17, 2021, three-time Olympic gold medalist and international humanitarian Jackie Joyner-Kersee visited Carthage College during Homecoming and Family Weekend. While on campus Joyner-Kersee met with several student groups over the span of two days. She also visited with middle school students from the YMCA Teen Achievers program, where Cameron Swallow, wife of Carthage's president John Swallow teaches. Joyner-Kersee also took part in a Spotlight in Sports panel discussion with Carthage alumnus Daniel Orlando Diaz (class of 2011) and Carthage professor Greg Barron. The pair provided a behind-the-scenes look at the Olympics, the recent impacts of COVID-19, and what to anticipate this winter in Beijing. The 150 Years of Carthage Women celebration came to a close Friday night with a rousing in-person event keynoted by Joyner-Kersee.

Antioch M.B.C. celebrates 75th Church Anniversary On Sunday, October 17, 2021 Antioch Missionary Baptist Church hosted its 75th church anniversary at the church, 2033 W. Congress Ave. The theme for the anniversary was "Upon This Rock I Will Build My Church," (Matthew 16:18) and was hosted by Antioch pastor Rev. Victor Manns and First Lady Lisa Manns. The church was founded on October 8, 1946 by the late Reverend Dr. Louis Samuel Beauchamp, with only three members which included his wife, Mrs. Pearl Beauchamp. The first worship service was held in a one-room building located at 1844 North 7th Street. It was an old and outdated building that had to be remodeled. Antioch Photo by Yvonne Kemp MBC was chartered by the State of Wisconsin in 1949. As the membership continued to grow, the church would move a number of times until it finally settled at its current location, it acquired from Augustana Lutheran Church, that closed on February 15, 1984. On August 21, 1990 God called Dr. Louis Samuel Beauchamp from labor to rest. Through the years the clergy who have been called to minister at Antioch include Dr. Earl Thomas (1992-1995), Dr. Andrew Calhoun (1996-1999), Reverend Maurice Gladney (2000-2001), Reverend Alexis Morgan (2002-2011), Reverend Steven Harris (2011 2015), and finally current pastor Reverend Victor Manns.

African Diaspora Council delivers school supplies to students in need

Photo by Yvonne Kemp

On Friday, October 15, 2021, the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee's African Diaspora Council (ADC), an affinity resource group comprised of faculty and staff at UWM, presented two car-loads of school supplies they had collected for area students. The students who attend these schools often do so without the basic tools necessary for learning, like pencils and paper. Last year

Colin Powell (Continued from pg.1) In a statement Monday, former Vice President Dick Cheney called himself "fortunate" to have worked with Powell, and said during both wars with Iraq he saw Powell's "dedication to the United States and his commitment to the brave and selfless men and women who serve our country in uniform." President Joe Biden, who ordered flags to be flown at half-staff, said in a statement Monday that when he served in the Senate, he worked closely with Powell, whom he called a friend. "Easy to share a laugh with," the president said. "A trusted confidant in good and hard times. He could drive his Corvette Stingray like nobody’s business — something I learned firsthand on the race track when I was vice president. And I am forever grateful for his support of my candidacy for president and for our shared battle for the soul of the nation. I will miss being able to call on his wisdom in the future." An HTGroup, LLC Publication

Despite serving Republican presidents, Powell said days after the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol that he could no longer call himself a Republican. “I'm not a fellow of anything right now," he said in an interview on CNN. "I'm just a citizen who has voted Republican, voted Democrat throughout my entire career. And right now I'm just watching my country and not concerned with parties.” Powell broke with his party on several occasions in recent years, including when he endorsed Sen. Barack Obama, D-IL, for president in 2008 over then-Sen. John McCain, R-AZ. Powell endorsed Obama again in 2012 over the GOP's nominee that year, Mitt Romney, and later became a vocal critic of President Donald Trump. Former President Obama expressed his condolences in a statement Monday, saying that he appreciated Powell's endorsements, especially in 2008. "At a time when conspiracy theories were swirling, with some questioning my faith, General Powell took the opportunity to get to the

the ADC was able to provide school supplies to a second "adopted" school in the 53206 zip code. Through the generous support of ADC members, retirees, alumni and friends, the UWM community and our external partners, Lafollette Elementary and Hopkins Lloyd Community Schools had supplies ready for the students.

heart of the matter in a way only he could," Obama said, repeating Powell's remark on NBC News' "Meet the Press" at the time about the conspiracy theories that were swirling about Obama's faith. “'The correct answer is, he is not a Muslim; he's a Christian,' General Powell said. 'But the really right answer is, ‘What if he is?’ Is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country? The answer's no, that's not America,'” Obama wrote. In 2016, it was revealed in leaked emails that Powell called the then-GOP presidential candidate a “national disgrace.” In June 2020, Powell and other retired military leaders blasted Trump for threatening to use military force against protesters.

Powell said in an interview on CNN that Trump had turned away from the Constitution and that he was a habitual liar. “We have a Constitution. We have to follow that Constitution. And the president's drifted away from it,” said Powell, who made clear that, like in 2016, he would not vote for Trump for president and instead planned to vote for Joe Biden. Powell was born in 1937 in Harlem, New York, to immigrants from Jamaica and grew up in the South Bronx, going on to get a bachelor’s degree from the City College of New York. He is survived by his wife, Alma Powell, 83, their three children and multiple grandchildren.

PNC Foundation commits $600,000 to launch Black Business Boost Fund for under-invested neighborhoods of Milwaukee The PNC Foundation is awarding a $600,000 grant to support the launch of the Black Business Boost Fund, an ecosystem designed to increase opportunities for Black entrepreneurs and business owners in underinvested neighborhoods of Milwaukee. The program will include direct equity investments, technical assistance, credit recovery, incubation, access to co-working space, working capital and strategic, ongoing one-on-one mentoring. The fund, administered by the Wisconsin Women’s Business Initiative Corporation (WWBIC), is the second PNC pilot program of its kind, and will provide direct micro equity investment, and educational and technical support for qualified businesses. The initiative aligns with PNC’s broader commitment announced in June 2020 to dedicate $1-billion to help end systemic racism and support the economic empowerment of Black Americans and low- and moderate-income communities. “Today we must be bold about the initiatives that can change the narrative for Black businesses in historically under-resourced neighborhoods. We believe this alignment between the public and private sector helps demonstrate our pledge to be an active participant in the journey towards economic vitality in areas of Milwaukee that need it the most,” said Chris Hermann, PNC regional president for Wisconsin. “When you teach a person to fish, they retain a lifelong skill. But if you help them buy a boat and hire a crew, they can then create a long-lasting business and build a legacy of wealth for their family.”

an additional year of priority returns only. After the third investment year, the business owner will have the option of paying off the investment or converting it to a traditional amortizing loan. This structure alleviates the financial burden during the most crucial years and allows the business owner to focus on building a viable and sustainable business.

Black Business Boost is designed to connect at least 100 qualified individuals and business entities with resources and “friend- and family-” type capital. The fund will support a “concept-to-launch” approach to help a business - regardless of where they stand in their lifecycle, covering everything from early stage ideation to long-term sustainability strategies. “We are thrilled to advance a unique model that will support Black-owned businesses, the economic engines in the heart of our communities,” said Wendy Baumann, WWBIC president and chief visionary officer. “What differentiates this program is access to equity. With our quality training and microlending experience, we will bring the needed expertise to support participants with credit repair, greater access to co-working spaces, accelerators and lending solutions to advance business growth.”

Development Financial Institutions (CDFI), and the Housing Authority of the City of Milwaukee (HACM) will partner to deliver technical assistance, and educational and mentoring opportunities. “Black Business Boost is designed to help close gaps in economic opportunity that have long kept Black entrepreneurs and business owners from starting and growing their businesses,” said Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett. “I am thankful to the PNC Foundation, WWBIC, HACM and other partners for launching this innovative pilot project that will support a new generation of Black businesses and build a stronger, more equitable Milwaukee.”

The PNC grant will be dispersed into the fund over a three-year period. Profits from the investment will be reinvested into succeeding program cohorts and other WWBIC, one of Wis- philanthropic and instituconsin’s first Community tional support to continue to

October Awareness Month (Week 3)

Indigenous People’s Day October 11, 2021 According to Wikipedia1, Indigenous People’s Day is a holiday that celebrates and honors Native American peoples and commemorates their histories and cultures. “The movement to replace Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples Day or Native American Day has gained momentum and spread to states, cities and towns across the United States. The first state to rename Columbus Day was South Dakota in 1990…”2 In 2019, H.Res.627 was introduced – expressing support for the designation of the second Monday in October as Indigenous People’s Day to celebrate and honor indigenous peoples and their shared history and culture.

Boss’s Day October 16, 2021 The concept of National Boss’s Day began in 1958 when Patricia Bays Haroski, then an employee at State Farm Insurance Co., in Deerfield, IL, registered the holiday with the United States Chamber of Commerce. She designated October 16 as the special day because it was her father's birthday. Haroski's purpose was to designate a day to show appreciation for her boss and other bosses. She also hoped to improve the relationship between employees and supervisors. Four years later in 1962, Illinois Governor Otto Kerner backed Haroski's registration and officially proclaimed the day. The event’s popularity is growing outside of the U.S. and is now observed in countries such as Australia, India, and South Africa.3 How can you celebrate boss’s Day? Many companies and offices hold celebrations to say thank you to the Boss or those in supervisory positions. Small gifts or celebrations can include: An HTGroup, LLC Publication

Top five ways to help bully-proof your child Did you know that 25 percent of public schools report that bullying among kids happens on a daily or weekly basis? And that 1 in 5 high school students report being bullied in the past year? The good news is that because bullying has made national headlines, schools and communities (and even celebrities) are taking a strong stand against bullying. You can do your part at home, too. Here are 5 smart strategies to keep kids from becoming targets — and stop bullying that has already started:

1. Talk about it. Talk about bullying with your kids and have other family members share their experiences. If one of your kids opens up

On October 25, 1940, Benjamin O. Davis, Sr., was appointed Brigadier General in the United States Army by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, becoming the first African American general in the history of the United States Military. Since then nearly 400 other African American women and men have been appointed to that rank. The highest rank in the Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps is General (four star), followed by Lieutenant General (three star), Major General (two star) and Brigadier General (one star). Five men have held the rank of General of the Army (five star), George C. Marshall, Douglas MacArthur, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Omar Bradley, and Henry H. Arnold, who later became the only five-star general in the Air Force. The five-star rank is no longer attainable. In the Navy the top rank is “Admiral” (four star) followed by Vice Admiral (three star), and Rear Admiral (two star). In the Navy the rank of Fleet Admiral is rarely given. Only four men, William D. Leahy, Ernest J. King, Chester W. Nimitz, and William F. Halsey, Jr., have been named Fleet Admiral.

‘Hamilton’ heralds Milwaukee live theater return

By Jacquelyn D. Heath Special to The Milwaukee Times

tunately, Alexander doesn’t do himself any favors when he enters into an extramarital affair with a married woman, thus creating a source of blackmail for his political rivals.

After a COVID-19 pandemic-enforced hiatus of more than 18 months from all things social and most things entertaining, live theater has returned to Milwaukee. And what a return it is. One of the most celebrated modern musicals – Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tony, Grammy, Pulitzer and Kennedy Center Honors winning theatrical phenomenon Hamilton—is in Milwaukee for a two-week run through October 24, 2021 at the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts. The two-act play tells the story of Alexander Hamilton, our country’s first Treasury Secretary, principle author of the Federalist Papers, and aide to general-turned-President George Washington. Alexander Hamilton is the ultimate outsider turned political insider. Born on the Caribbean island of Nevis of questionable parentage, instead of the colonial planter-aristocratic background shared by many of the other Founding Fathers, Hamilton arrives in the revolutionary hotbed of New York City as a young man in the 1770’s,

hoping to find his future as a war hero in the fledgling American Revolution. As a student at Kings College in New York, his considerable skills as a speaker and writer bring him attention from some revolutionary heavyweights – including Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, French ally the Marquis de Lafayette, and eventual rival Aaron Burr. Burr and Hamilton are considered for a position as a top assistant to General George Washington; Hamilton is chosen over Burr, and the seeds of envy are planted.

hostesses to their spouses. Alexander’s wit and brains catch the eye and win the heart of Eliza Schuyler and they are married.

After the colonists win their war for independence against the British, they set about the business of nation-building. They choose George Washington as their first President, and one of the first popularly elected heads of state in a world filled with birthright monarchs and royal dynasties. Washington again picks Hamilton – this time as Treasury Secretary and a principal confiHamilton also meets dante, while Burr once again wealthy financier Philip is left on the sidelines.

Unfor-

Utomi as Alexander Hamilton, Josh Tower as Aaron Burr, and Zoe Jensen as Eliza Schuyler Hamilton kept the audience focused as they inhabited their characters to bring history to life. A slice of comedic interlude was contributed by Peter Matthew Smith as King George III of Britain, coming off much like a jilted lover when the colonials marched on to victory in the war for independence and made headway building a new nation – without his blessing.

Hamilton leaves government when John Adams is elected to succeed Washington as President, but returns to endorse former adversary Thomas Jefferson for president in 1800. This alliance drives an additional wedge between Hamilton and Aaron Burr. He challenges Hamilton to defend his personal Hamilton’s energy and and political honor in a duel. high-quality performance is As the saying goes, “the rest just the ticket to lift Milwauis history.” kee theater out of its long imposed break, as well as Playwright Miranda has make history fans out of its said he developed this play audience.
