Northwestern Mutual making significant investment in Milwaukee By Steve Waring Special to The Milwaukee Times (Editor’s Note: This is the first of a three-part series on the massive financial investment in the future of downtown Milwaukee currently in process by Northwestern Mutual which has had its corporate headquarters in Milwaukee since 1859.) The investment includes construction of state-of-theart, high-rise office buildings, apprenticeship training, preserving 1,100 jobs and adding 1,900 new jobs, most with generous benefits and good salaries. On September 28, The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper was granted an exclusive tour of the flagship $300 million, 11 million square foot, 32-story mixed use addition to Northwestern Mutual’s iconic 1912-era, world

Ald. Zielinski and MPD prepare for future ‘Miltown Throwdown’ events Alderman Tony Zielinkski and officials from the Milwaukee Police Department announced a new strategy for curbing dangerous ‘nuisance’ behavior that accompanied the 2015 Miltown Throwdown motorcycle gathering in early August. Alderman Zielinski said riders blocked traffic, drove on the sidewalk, and recklessly damaged property, including an MPD squad car which was struck by a motorcyclist trying to pass while speeding. Residents of the affected neighborhoods complained that police did not do enough to deter offenders. “Milwaukee’s rich motorcycle heritage was sullied by
Alderman Tony Zielinski a handful of bad actors and poor behavior,” Alderman Zielinski said. “But with some proactive policing and the targeted enforcement of our existing ordinances, we
have a plan in place to prevent a repeat of what happened in August.” Using news footage and videos taken during the event, Alderman Zielinski said MPD has identified participants who served as spokespersons and organizers. The police will hold these persons responsible for obtaining a permit to host any future events. Failure to comply would make each organizer subject to a $500 citation for hosting an unpermitted event as well as each participant liable to a $500 citation for unlawful assembly.

I want to work to turn that around.” Jacquelyn is a native of Chicago, IL. She was raised by her mother who was widowed when her husband, Cook County Sheriff Sgt.

Public expresses concerns about police use of cameras at Fire and Police Commission hearing By Steve Waring Special to The Milwaukee Times Most of the estimated 50 members of the public who spoke following a demonstration of the new police body camera system before a Fire and Police Commission (FPC) hearing on September 29 expressed gratitude that the city budget included funding for the system; but trust in the proposed draft operating procedure that the Milwaukee Police Department (MPD) has created was harder to find at the meeting. Many speakers expressed concerns about three issues in particular that the cameras are to remain off unless activated by the officer on duty and the recorded data remains in the possession of the officer until the recording device is returned to the station at the end of the shift and the data downloaded. Sgt. Doug Wiorek, an IT specialist with the MPD, demonstrated the two head-mounted and one

shoulder mounted models approved for use and then responded to questions from both the public and members of the FPC. He said there were specific protocols for when a recording device had to be turned on and disciplinary consequences if an officer failed to use the device when engaging in an investigation or apprehension. Even though it would be both possible and permissible for officers to view recorded incidents on their de-
vices before they were downloaded, they could not be tampered with, Sgt. Wiorek said. Under questioning from members of the FPC, police Inspector Mary Hoerig said that the batteries were capable of recording an entire shift, but police felt members of the public might be reluctant to speak with an officer if they knew they were being recorded. “If the cameras can be on for eight hours, let it be
on,” said a man who gave his name as L. Gibson. One of the FPC members was told film from cameras mounted on squad cars typically runs continuously. “Why is it that the dash cams are on continuously, but not the body cameras?” asked FPC Commissioner Marisabel Cabrera. “Why does the officer have the ability to view raw footage before it is uploaded?” Some video systems have the ability to upload film immediately to a secure server, but under the system chosen by the MPD video footage remains in the officer’s possession until the body camera is returned to the charging unit at the station. Sgt. Wiorek said that having the ability to view the raw footage could help an officer filling out an incident report. The cameras will be worn on the head, attached to a pair of glasses or mounted on an officer’s shoulder. Chest cameras were rejected, according to Sgt. Wiorek, be-
cause video is often blocked in the event an officer aims a weapon at a suspect. The MPD will be purchasing a total of 1,200 body cameras, which is enough to ensure that every officer serving in the field has a personal device; however due to cost and training the cameras will be rolled out incrementally. The estimated cost of the body cameras and video storage capabilities is $880,000 in 2016 and about $1 million a year beginning in 2017, according to preliminary figures in the proposed 2016 budget. The first 200 devices will become operational on a trial basis on October 12, Sgt. Wiorek said. The department will put another 300 into the field in March 2016 and 300 more in June. The last 400 will be operational by the end of July, according to Sgt. Wiorek. The FPC first has to approve their use and how they will be operated. The next meeting of the commission is October 15, 2015 at 5:30 p.m. in City Hall Room 301B.

County Executive Chris Abele new basketball arena for the Milwaukee Bucks, despite the fact that the legislation to fund the 20-year financial obligation by more aggressively collecting unpaid property taxes and fines has not yet been approved. The formal presentation to the board on October 1 followed an invitation-only presentation at the Pritzlaff Building the previous evening. Invitations to a number of County Board members either arrived late or not at all, an incident which caused County Board Chairman Theodore L. Lipscomb, Sr., to release a public letter encouraging the public to attend. Chairman Lipscomb told WUWM Public Radio there are good reasons the county executive traditionally unveils the budget to the board at the courthouse. He said the public deserves to receive prior notification of public meetings through official channels and that proceedings in the courthouse are recorded and made available online afterward. After finishing his budget presentation to the county board in the courthouse, Chairman Lipscomb im-
plored Abele to answer a few questions from board members. In response to a question from Supervisor Khalif Rainey about provisions in the budget for assisting impoverished African Americans, Abele said he had improved social services at the House of Corrections, increased funding for the mentally impaired and improved child support, a response which prompted an apology to the African American council members from Supervisor Deanna Alexander and later in the day demands for an apology from four of the five African American members on the 18-member council. “What exactly does he think of the African American community and its problems?” said Supervisor Supreme Moore Omokunde. “Does he really think additional funding for the House of Corrections is a way to address problems in the African American community?” Supervisors Martin Weddle and Rainey issued a joint statement in which they said they were outraged. “Chris Abele has no plan for dealing (Continued on pg. 18)

Rebuilding Our Community
Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper
By Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D. Special to the Milwaukee Times
Let’s be upfront story of what residents are saying is quite revealing. Today, most residents are just trying to hold on to what they have - - a roof over their head, food on the table and clothes on their backs. In addition, they would also like a decent retirement, some health care, to live in safety, raise their families, be treated with respect and be at peace with their neighbors. That is not too much to ask, you would think. But it appears that when a resident or group of residents attempts to participate in a particular program or two that would go a long way to improve their neighborhood, there seems to always be a “catch to it,” an “Oh by the way moment.” That is also followed by a push back, further scrutiny, more guidelines and some other “hoops” to go through in
order to “qualify.” And then they're told that if they are not selected for this program, there are some other programs they might quality for. A lot of people get it; the limits, the process, the past, the scrutiny and even the “hoops” to go through. But
initiatives that will make our communities better, safer and healthier. Our city is facing some huge challenges, but let’s be upfront about them. What do you thing?

weapons are here to stay. No matter how many shootings take place, Americans are not giving up their guns. To think otherwise is a foolish notion. How then does one become safe? The safest place a person can be is between their two ears. On the other hand that is also the wildest place many people reside in. To try to find safety with a violent mind is like trying to juggle nitro with no arms. The safety many crave can’t be found in an underground bunker. It can’t be found with more police and gun control laws. True safety has to be found inside the individual. Take a look at your thoughts and be realistic. Are your thoughts ones of succor or borderline rage? Do you think loving thoughts the majority of the time or spiteful ones? Your thoughts lead to actions. If you want

the next month. Sadly, more people will buy guns to protect themselves. Can you see the irony? No one is saying the media shouldn’t cover the news. The way stories are covered needs to be changed. The spin on certain events, such as shootings and violence, should be redone. For years the media has exposed shooters and showcased victims and nothing has changed. The media tells stories with a negative twist. Why? The population is addicted to negativity just like the heroin junkie craves his "H". Many people go into a crazed scramble for safety after events like Oregon happen. Some will buy guns. Others will run to church or try to force political change. Either way has been tried for decades and nothing has changed and won’t. One reason: guns, rifles and assault

As the world turns there are more examples of ugliness in society. The humans on this planet are being bombarded with a constant stream of negativity. The society we live in is caught between greed and extinction. As of today, the former is driving the people to the latter. This isn’t a race issue, but a humanity issue. As a person you have to find a safe place for yourself. The atrocities covered daily by the media are shocking. The media has created an unnatural need in people for violent news. The majority of people don’t even realize they are addicted to the negativity that pours from their TV. The media constantly barrages people with events that have no immediate effect on their lives. This leads to a need in people to hear more because it gives them a rush. But is this helping them or driving them to an early grave? The shooting that took place in Oregon last week is another tragedy dealing with guns. The media will put the shooter and the community where it took place right in people’s living rooms. The theory is that an informed populace will make adjustments to prevent this type of event. Has this worked so far? One result will be that every school system in the USA will be paranoid for

At first glance, it seems that we are making some progress by what people are saying, stories written, town hall meetings held, radio talk shows, big plans being suggested and a “blue ribbon committee” being formed that will study the problem and find a solution. But just like some real live “magic act” and after some time the “big idea” somehow just disappeared into thin air or was reduced to something you cannot even imagine. There is no follow up, no point person taking the lead, no follow through and, in the words of one community resident recently... “A lot of wind, some sounds of thunder... but no rain.” Another resident cited ... “it’s the same old same old ...nothing going to change... it’s just a different day.” This ugly truth is being played out each year and the

Breast Cancer Awareness Month (Part 2) Did you know breast cancer is a global burden? According to the World Health Organization, breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide, claiming the lives of hundreds of thousands of women each year and affecting countries at all levels of modernization. In continuation of the series recognizing Breast Cancer Awareness month, this column will stress the importance of performing regular breast self-exams. Adult women of all ages are encouraged to perform breast self-exams at least once a month. Johns Hopkins Medical center states, “Forty percent of diagnosed breast cancers are detected by women who feel a lump, so establishing a regular breast self-exam is very important.” While mammograms can help you to detect cancer before you can feel a lump, breast self-exams help you to be familiar with how your breasts look and feel so you can alert your healthcare professional if there are any changes. The difference between a self-exam and a clinical exam
is a clinical breast exam is performed by a healthcare professional that is trained to recognize many different types of abnormalities and warning signs. This in-office exam will most likely be completed by your family physician or gynecologist at your annual exam, whereas your breast self-exam is something every woman should do once month at home. Although you cannot prevent cancer, some habits that can help reduce your risk are: 1. Maintain a healthy weight 2. Stay physically active 3. Eat fruits and vegetables 4. Do not smoke 5. Limit alcohol consumption
There is good news about breast cancer trends. The National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc., reports in recent years, perhaps coinciding with the decline in prescriptive hormone replacement therapy after menopause, there has been a gradual reduction in female breast cancer incidence rates among women aged 50 and older. Death rates from breast cancer have been declining since about 1990, in part due to screening and early detection, increased awareness, and continually improving treatment options. Beloved, there are women all around you: at work, living next door to you, part
of your social media contact list, part of your circle of “sister-girls,” in your family circle, etc., who need your prayers for a health related illness. Commit to praying for women who have been diagnosed with any form of cancer as well as for cancer survivors. “…pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.” -James 5:16, ESV Resources: • Centers for Disease Control and Prevention • World Health Organization • National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc.

Greater Galilee celebrates Women's Month with 'Bible Boot Camp'
Staff Photo
The women of Greater Galilee Baptist Church, 2432 N. Teutonia Ave., were forced to hold their Women's Month teachings in the basement due to construction work in the sanctuary, so they did not advertise. Despite the lack of publicity, an average of more than 100 women attended three consecutive Wednesday night Bible Study lessons. The closing service on September 27, 2015 drew more than 350 to hear keynote speaker Greater New Birth Church Minister Denise Pitchford delivered a message on "Preparing Godly Women for Battle." For the second year in a row the women chose the color pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but this year they also created camouflage t-shirts with “Preparing Godly Women for Battle” written in pink in order to reflect the theme “Bible Boot Camp.” Originally intended just for the organizers, the women eventually sold 80 t-shirts, many of which were worn throughout the month of teaching. Rev. Johnny C. White is pastor.
The history of women’s hat observed at Shiloh

A colorful and delicious lunch was served as attendees dined in stylish fashion head wear. The event was coordinated by Shiloh’s First Lady Reopal Holmes. Sister Linda Hopgood presented a historical scope of the hat crown which has served as a fashion statement in the the Black church. The fashion show was narrated by Sister Breanna Holmes. Gift baskets were an added attraction for the women to win by purchasing a raffle ticket. Reverend Charles E. Holmes is the pastor of Shiloh.

BDPA students make successful trip to Washington

Pictured (from left) are Jayla Childress, Asia Canada, Alvin Cherry, and Jeffrey Simons.
This year the Milwaukee Chapter of the Black Data Processing Associates (BDPA) took eight students to Washington, DC, to participate in the BDPA High School Computer Competition (HSCC). The eight students selected to go were Youth Technology Conference (YTC) participants Asia Canada, Jayla Childress, Jeffrey Simons, Gnanam Chokkalingam, and Kapil Chokkalingam; and HSCC participants Alvin Cherry, Vendah Jones, and Isaiah Jones, Jr.
Imagining possibilities may help create new ones.

The students studied from October to August at Washington High School of Information Technology, every Saturday that school was open. They received instruction on web design using HTML, CSS, and PHP, using the eclipse application environment. They built web applications, learned project management, and developed 21st century skills such as developing a resume, elevator speech, dressing for success, and other skills necessary to succeed. The training they are getting is valuable, as the U.S. Department of Labor projects that in the near future 1 out of every 2 technology jobs will be in Information Technology. The skills they are learning are currently used by professionals earning $50,000 to $70,000 per year to start. The Milwaukee High School Computer Competition (HSCC) and YTC students this year are an eclectic collection of bright minds from schools in the Milwaukee area: Rufus King, Washington, Kradwell, Brookfield Elementary, Brown Deer, and more. They are learning web, programming, and database technology as well as 21st century business skills from a dedicated cadre of instructors/advisors. Like their students, the instructors come from a varied list of names in the Milwaukee business community: Rockwell Automation, Miller Coors, GE, Tech Mahindra, Jason Industries, Milwaukee Public Schools, and Milwaukee County among them. This is the second year of the competition. In the first year, the conference was held in Indianapolis, IN. The team finished 8th in verbal tests, last in written, and about 15th place out of 22. This year it was in Washington, DC. The team finished the same in verbal, rose to 6th in written, and was poised to be in the top 10, but ran into difficulty in the project portion and dropped out of 10th place. Next year, the conference will be in Atlanta, GA. Look out, Atlanta!

Rockwell Automation, Milwaukee Public Schools, and Boys & Girls Clubs open new STEM center Rockwell Automation is partnering with Milwaukee Public Schools and Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Milwaukee (BGCGM) to establish a STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) Center at the joint Rogers Street Academy and Don & Sallie Davis Boys & Girls Club, 2430 W. Rogers Street. The STEM Center will provide Project Lead the Way (PLTW) curriculum and hands-on STEM activities to Rogers Street Academy students during the school day and Boys & Girls Clubs members after school. This partnership offers a unique opportunity for enhancing, enriching and extending student learning, and provides the institutions with a differentiator for student and staff development, recruitment, and retention. “As a proud supporter of STEM education programs, we are pleased to partner with MPS and Boys & Girls Clubs to deepen the educational experience for students in our community,” said Rock-
well Automation Chairman and CEO Keith Nosbusch. “Our partnership provides opportunities for inspiring creativity along with applied learning to understand the skills required for the new technology environments of the 21st century.” According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there will be 9.2 million jobs in STEM fields by 2020, and the rate of STEM field job growth will outpace overall job growth by nearly double. Additionally, the National Association of Colleges and Employers survey showed that engineers have the highest average starting salaries for new college-educated workers, making $64,891. “We are grateful that Rockwell Automation is investing in the future of our children,” said Vincent Lyles, President & CEO of BGCGM. “The professionally staffed STEM Center will create opportunities for young people to explore STEM in fun and engaging ways that foster learning while inspiring future career choices."
Each week, more than 300 K-8 students will utilize the new STEM Center, which features a computer lab equipped with industry-leading educational software. A separate project space creates opportunities for hands-on learning and collaborative problem-solving. “Rockwell Automation has been a tremendous and longtime partner MPS Photo to MPS students and schools,” Pictured (from left) Rockwell Automation Chairman and CEO said Dr. Darienne Keith Nosbusch; MPS Superintendent Dr. Darienne Driver; MilDriver, Superin- waukee Mayor Tom Barrett; and President & CEO of BGCGM tendent of Mil- Vincent Lyles touring the new STEM center. waukee Public Schools. “This latest commitment to the Rog- opportunities for students Public Schools and the Boys ers Street Academy students, designed to improve student & Girls Clubs.

New this year: All MPS high schools offering early admissions Open houses set as new enrollment period runs from October 5 through November 2
All MPS schools with high school grades are now offering students the opportunity to secure a high school seat early. The move is part of a new district effort aimed at giving all 8th-grade students the opportunity to make their top high school selections at the same time, whether they are seeking their neighborhood school or a school with a specialized program. MPS High School Early Admissions will run from October 5, 2015 through November 2, 2015. Early Admissions will allow students to fill out a single application and select schools they are interested in attending next school year (201617). The online applications will be available at http:// mpsmke.com/highschools beginning October 5 through November 2. “This past spring, we celebrated seven MPS high schools receiving national recognition from U.S. News and World Report and the Washington Post. We are on a mission to grow that number by focusing on equity, access and opportunity for all students,” MPS Superintendent Dr. Darienne Driver said. “Part of that work involves
making sure every student has the opportunity to select a high school that meets their needs and has programs that interest them.” The enrollment process allows students to express interest in up to two traditional high schools and up to two selective criteria high schools. The selective criteria high schools are Rufus King International High School, Golda Meir School, Milwaukee High School of the Arts and Ronald Reagan College Preparatory High School. In the past, only a small number of schools with entrance requirements participated in early admissions for high school grades. The selective criteria high schools do have additional steps students must take to apply. Information is available at http://mpsmke. com/highschools. A list of MPS Early Admissions open houses is also available at the same site: http://mpsmke.com/highschools.

MPS break ground for addition at Fernwood Montessori By Steve Waring Special to The Milwaukee Times Under the pounding rhythm of the Bay View High School Drum Line and a breezy, sunny October 1 morning sky, more than 700 students, parents, local dignitaries, news crews and Milwaukee Public School officials marched to the site of a ceremonial groundbreaking on a new addition to high-performing Fernwood Montessori School located at 3239 S. Pennsylvania Ave. The K3-8th grade school has grown from 544 students in 2009 to 705 last year. The school was rated “Exceeds Expectations” in most areas on its most recent state report card. There is a waiting list to enroll. The $9.2 million addition to the 1927 school building is aimed at helping to reduce overcrowding and permit existing students to continue to attend through the eighth grade. Milwaukee Public School Board Director member Carol Voss, who represents the area that includes the district; Milwaukee Public School Superintendent Dr. Darienne Driver, and Milwaukee Alderman Tony Zielinski, who represents the area on the Milwaukee Common Council all gave brief congratulatory remarks prior to grabbing a shovel and joining students selected to participate in the ceremonial beginning of construction.

MPS Superintendent Dr. Darien Driver, Fernwood Montessori School officials and students are pictured breaking ground for the new addition to the school. “Today is a very exciting day,” said School Board Member Voss. “It’s not only an exciting day for the school and community, it’s also an exciting time for the city at large and for MPS. Today is a sign that by working hard and pulling together we can try to meet the needs of the community and provide a really high level education.” School Board Member Voss singled out many for their contribution, including the parent coalition at Fernwood which has helped
raise funds and maintained the dream of expansion alive while it was undergoing budgetary debate. Dr. Driver said that the project, which includes new classrooms and other amenities, has a projected completion date in time for the start of the 2016-17 school year. The addition is a component of MPS’ Regional Development Plan, which works to help grow strong academic programs. Other elements of the plan currently underway include preparing for an
addition to Maryland Avenue Montessori School, another high-performing MPS school. In the Montessori classroom, children use specially-made materials to help them learn practical life skills, activities that promote concentration, math concepts and problem solving, according to information on the Fernwood School Internet website. They also gain language acquisition skills, and integrate science, history and arts into their studies.

Previous Montessori classroom experience is required to enter beyond K4, the site stated. In brief comments, Dr. Driver said that MPS was determined to provide high-achieving students with the opportunity to make the most of their talents. After about 20 minutes sitting on the ground in the breezy playground area, the students were ready to throw some dirt. With roughly a dozen shovels available, representatives from most of the groups who helped make the expansion possible had the opportunity to be represented.

Racial differences in breast cancer linked to genes
Mutations associated with aggressive tumors are more prevalent among black women, study shows Black women are more likely to develop aggressive forms of breast cancer than white women because of genetic differences in the tumors, a new study suggests. The finding that genetic characteristics of more aggressive tumors may be more prevalent among black women could help explain racial differences in survival rates. The researchers said their findings could help scientists develop more targeted treatments for the disease. Previous studies have already found that, compared with white women, black women have a higher prevalence of breast cancers that do not respond to hormone therapy -- so-called “triple-negative” breast cancers. Now, the new study reports that black breast cancer patients also have a “significantly higher prevalence of the TP53 driver mutation, basal tumor subtype and greater genomic diversity within tumors, all of which
suggest more aggressive tumor biology,” the study’s lead author, Dr. Tanya Keenan, of Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center in Boston, said in a hospital news release. “The higher risk of tumor recurrence that we observed among African American women was reduced when controlling for those factors, suggesting that these genomic differences contribute, at least partly, to the known racial disparity in the surviv-
al of African American and Caucasian breast cancer patients,” Keenan added. Advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer have reduced the overall death rate of the disease, but this positive trend is less apparent among black women, the researchers pointed out. Black women with breast cancer in the United States are 40 percent more likely to die from their disease than white women, a disparity that
can’t be explained solely by social and economic factors, such as income, insurance and access to care, the study authors said in the news release. For the study, the investigators analyzed genetic differences between the tumors of 105 black women and 664 white women diagnosed with cancer between 1988 and 2013, to determine how genes could influence cancer recurrence. The same five tumor-specific mutations were most prevalent among all of the women included in the study, but more black women had tumors driven by TP53 mutation. Women with this mutation were more likely to suffer a recurrence and their relapse also occurred more quickly, according to the study, which was published online Sept. 17 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. Meanwhile, white women more often had tumors with the PIK3CA mutation. Over-
all, however, black women had more mutations within each tumor and greater prevalence of mutations associated with more aggressive tumors, the findings showed. “Our study adds important pieces to the puzzle of why African American women with breast cancer are less likely to survive,” said the study’s senior author, Aditya Bardia, an assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School and attending physician at the Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center. “If our findings are confirmed by additional studies, they may open doors to the development of targeted therapies against the tumor subtypes more likely to affect African Americans, and potentially help reduce racial disparities in breast cancer,” Bardia explained in the news release.
Chicago woman is first adult cured of sickle cell disease with chemotherapy-free technique Iesha Thomas has been in and out of hospitals battling sickle cell disease since she was only 8 months old. This summer, 33-year-old Thomas became the first adult to be cured of sickle cell disease with a chemotherapy-free procedure at University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System (UI Health), the University reported. Thomas is one of 12 adult patients cured of sickle cell disease as part of a clinical trial at UI Health that used a unique procedure for stem cell transplantation from healthy tissue matched from a sibling donor. Findings from phase I/II of the clinical trial are published online in the journal Biology of Blood & Marrow Transplantation. Stem cell transplants have been used for years as a means of possibly curing sickle cell disease. However, before the stem cell transplant could be completed patients would have to endure a taxing course of drugs to kill the cancer cells, otherwise known as chemotherapy. The more traditional form of stem cell transplant uses chemotherapy to destroy the patient’s own bone marrow, which shuts down their immune system and makes them vulnerable to infections. The new technique – first developed and performed at the National Institutes of Health campus in Maryland – eliminates the need for chemotherapy to prepare the patient to receive the transplanted cells and offers the prospect of cure for tens of

thousands of adults suffering from sickle cell disease – many of them Black Americans. According to the National Heart, Lung & Blood Institute (NIH), about 1 in 13 African American babies is born with sickle cell trait. About 1 in every 365 black children is born with sickle cell disease. About 90 percent of the approximately 450 patients who have received stem cell transplants for sickle cell disease have been children. Chemotherapy has been considered too risky for adult patients, who are often more weakened than children by the disease. “Adults with sickle cell disease are now living on average until about age 50 with blood transfusions and drugs to help with pain crises, but their quality of life can be very low,” says Dr. Damiano Rondelli, chief of hematology/oncology and director of the blood and marrow transplant program at UI Health, and corresponding author on the paper.

The tech industry has long faced a challenge that can only be fixed from within -diversity. And leaders in the industry want a solution. Last weekend, 150 leading innovators in the tech world convened in New York to attend the sixth annual Cultural Shifting Weekend to celebrate diversity in tech and discuss ways to shape the future of tech, business and society in a two-day event, including a Think Tank and an Awards Brunch. The theme of this year's event was “Disrupting Traditional Business Models.” Participants included corporate representatives from Google, Microsoft, Intuit, Uber, among others and policy makers. "This is not just about a theoretical exercise. This
was about meeting people who can help you take those dreams to scale," Bronx Assemblyman Michael Blake said. "Culture Shift Labs is connecting us to the opportunity and to each other." Culture Shift Labs, an advisory organization for businesses, coordinated the event. Andrea Hoffman, the organization's founder, has been advising corporations in engaging their underrepresented consumers and employees for over two decades. “My convenings are known for deal flow and collaboration opportunities among senior leaders,” Hoffman said. Thanks to the collaborative efforts of Culture Shift Labs and tech leaders the industry is slowly but surely changing for the better.

The contracting team broke ground in late 2014 and its three-year completion date is considered “very aggressive,” according to Wollenzien. To date there have been no serious injuries on the project a record of which the team is very proud. One of the biggest design challenges was in attempting to blend the massive existing neo-classic granite building with a glass and steel high rise that did not block views of the lake for other downtown businesses. This is the reason for the sweeping curvature of glass and planned greenspace on the corner where Wisconsin Ave., becomes North Prospect Ave. The contractors are building all phases of construction simultaneously, which means that the concrete elevator shafts are poured and allowed to cure, then the steel framing is erected, followed by fireproofing. After that has cured, the concrete subfloor is poured; followed by the installation of plumbing, electrical, and other wiring materials. Once the exterior glass panels are installed, interior furnishing can begin. Construction crews typically try to remain at least three floors below the top of the

elevator shaft, which has now reached the 15th floor of 32 planned for this project. The design calls for a four-story mezzanine to connect the 32-story tower to the classic headquarters. The majority of our tour took place in the mezzanine section. Although few construction workers were in evidence in our area, Wollenzien said that an average of 320 construction workers were on the site every day, and that number is expected to jump to 600 soon. And in keeping with its promises Northwestern Mutual has exceeded its minority hiring quotas, according to Gardner. On October 6 Northwestern Mutual announced that it would develop a $100 million 33-story upscale apartment tower next to its soon-to-beexpanded headquarters. “We believe in Milwaukee. It’s been our hometown for virtually all of our 155 years,” said Northwestern Mutual Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John E. Schlifske in 2012 when the decision was made to move forward. “This will be a signature development that makes a huge statement about the attractiveness of the whole Milwaukee metro area. We are going to be here, and continue to play a vital role in this community for generations to come.” This series continues next week.

Discovering Our Deep Cultural Roots In The Arts
Jackie Ormes: The first African American female cartoonist By William S. Gooden Milwaukee Time's resident comic geek There has been a lot of talk about minority representation in the comic industry. With the sudden awareness by the mainstream comics industry that their fan base is more diverse and made up of more than just white, teen and middle-aged males, the realization has sparked a revolution to offer more representation of women, blacks and other minorities both on their printed pages and in their creative talent pool. However, the idea of women or African Americans creating their own stories about their own culture is not new. It began with a woman named Jackie Ormes. Ormes’ comic strips were syndicated in black newspapers in the 1930s and ‘40s, making her the only nationally syndicated black woman cartoonist until the 1990s. Her characters were fashionable and intelligent, setting a new precedent for black depictions of that day. She even licensed a doll based on one of her comic strip characters, and offered African American children one of the first real toy options that was not a negative

At a time when it was not easy to be a working woman of any color, Jackie Ormes was a stylish woman who worked in a male-dominated world of journalism and cartooning. She was a self-taught artist who had several successful comic strips and cartoon characters, and they were precedent-setting. The characters were fashionable and professional. Often the focus of a strip was on humor, but Ormes was happy to use her comics as a platform for
commentary on society’s ills as well. Her targets were frequently racial issues, but in 1953-54, her comic strip character, Torchy, took on environmental pollution, particularly as it was occurring in black neighborhoods. This was long before strips like Pogo had become the “issue” strip we think of today. Starting out Her first job was as a proofreader for the weekly African American newspaper, The Pittsburgh Courier. Her job at the Courier must have given her the opportunity to show her work to editors, because in 1937 her comic strip character, Torchy Brown, was appearing in “Dixie to Har-

lem,” a strip about a teenager from Mississippi who travels to Harlem to perform at the Cotton Club. The strip was part action, part adventure, and part comedy, and it frequently featured the struggles that Ormes observed among African Americans of the day. In one of the strips Torchy is in a southern train station trying to decide whether to try to pass for white to ride in the more comfortable “White” section or whether to simply follow the arrow to the “Colored” car. In 1942 Ormes moved to Chicago and began writing occasional articles and a society column for the Chicago Defender, one of the nation’s leading black newspapers. At the end of the war, the Defender started running a single panel cartoon, Candy by Ormes. It was about an attractive and wisecracking housemaid. Shortly after this, Ormes took her work back to the Courier. This time the single-panel cartoon was about two sisters. Ginger was the older and wiser sister but the entire strip was narrated by the precocious Patty Jo who voiced all commentary for the strip.

The Patty Jo doll Patty Jo doll The Ginger ‘n’ Patty Jo strip was very popular and ran for eleven years. Ormes made a deal with the Terri Lee Doll Company (19461962) in 1947 to produce a doll based on the Patty Jo cartoon character. The company was making a white Terri Lee doll, so Patty Jo had a brown body from the Terri Lee mold with a face that was the image of the cartoon character. While Patti Jo was certainly not the first African American doll, it was one of the early ones that wasn’t a Mammy or a “pickaninny.” Patty Jo was special because (Continued on pg. 18)

Ten of these HLA markers must match between the donor and the recipient for the transplant to have the best chance of evading rejection. In a further advance of the NIH procedure, physicians at UI Health successfully transplanted two patients with cells from siblings who matched for HLA but had a different blood type. In all 13 patients, the transplanted cells successfully took up residence in the marrow and produced healthy red blood cells.

Torchy in Heartbeats In 1950, the Courier began an eight-page color comic insert. Jackie Ormes was asked to bring back Torchy, and she did “Torchy in Heartbeats.” By this time Ormes was well-established, and she used her character as a great looking role model who also took on issues like sexism, racism, and the polluting of the environment. She continued the cartoon strip until 1956. Personal life Jackie Ormes was happily married for 45 years to Earl Clark Ormes, who was the

Theoretically, Ormes comic strip was not what brought her to the attention of the FBI during the McCarthy era. Her presence at a bookstore where a couple of Communists were thought to have spoken is what was supposed to have led to the FBI opening a file on her in the late 1940s. She was questioned by the FBI. Even after she no longer was creating the strip she continued as a serious artist, painting murals and portraits. She was also on the board of directors of the DuSable Museum of African-American History and Art in Chicago. Jackie Ormes died in Chicago on January 2, 1986.

Bible Scripture for the week from The Book of Psalms Why do the nations rage? Why do the people waste their time with futile plans? The kings of the earth prepare for battle; the rulers plot together against the Lord and against his anointed one. Let us break their chains,” they cry, and free ourselves from this slavery.” But the one who rules in heaven laughs. The Lord scoffs at them. Then in anger he rebukes them, terrifying them with his fierce fury. For the Lord declares, I have placed my chosen king on the throne in Jerusalem, my holy city.” The king proclaims the Lord’s decree. “The Lord said to me, “You are my son.” Today I have become your Father.” Only ask, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance, the ends of the earth as your possession. You will break them with an iron rod and smash them like clay pots.’” Now then, you kings act wisely! Be warned, you rulers of the earth! Serve the Lord with reverent fear! , and rejoice with trembling. Submit to God’s royal son, or he will become angry, and you will be destroyed in the midst of your pursuits—for his anger can flare up in an instant. But what joy for all who find protection in him! (Psalms Book One 2:1-12) from the New Living Translation Bible
