Milwaukee County Supervisor Russell Stamper, II and several other individuals have declared their candidacy to represent the 15th aldermanic district recently vacated by Alderman Willie Hines, who took a job with the City Housing Authority. Vying to complete the unexpired term in Aldermanic District 15 are: County Supervisor Eyon Biddle Sr., Deshea Agee and Patricia Ruiz. A primary election will be held on April 1, 2014 followed by a general election on April 29, 2014.

Coggs for making the district a great place in which to live, and each was presented with a 2014 Dr. James G. White 6th District Difference Makers Award. Alderwoman Coggs, who presented the awards during the meeting (held in the Martin Luther King, Jr. Library, 310 W. Locust St.), said selfless and dedicated work to improve the district, neighborhoods and the community is truly worthy of recognition and thanks. “It takes a certain amount of love and respect for one’s community and neighbors to tirelessly do positive things without regard for what reward or gain may come of it,” she said. “That selfless attitude and generosity of spirit and energy is what the Difference Makers Award is all about, as it truly embodies the beliefs and actions of the late Dr. James G. White,” Alderwoman Coggs said. The 2014 Dr. James G. White 6th District Difference Makers Award winners were: • Grover Heights Neighborhood Association (Block Club) • Milwaukee Health Servic-

Two Messmer High School football players receive full athletic scholarships On Wednesday, February 5, 2014, Messmer High School was pleased to announce that two of its graduating seniors have been awarded full athletic football scholarships to pursue their college careers. Senior Jonathan Carson will be attending Central Michigan University and Senior Tywan Ramsey is headed to South Dakota State University; both are set to enroll this fall. Both Carson and Ramsey played key roles for the Messmer/Shorewood football team last year, leading the Greyhounds to their first ever Midwest Classic Conference title and a 7-3 overall record. Carson and Ramsey earned Midwest Classic Conference Offensive Player and Defensive Player of the Year honors, respectively. Carson was also named to the WFCA All-State team as a tight end.

The Messmer/Shorewood football team is a unique collaboration that was formed in 2001 between Messmer, a private, urban school and Shorewood, a public, suburban school. No Messmer student has been awarded a full athletic football scholarship since before the collaboration. To have two students earn college scholarships in one year is more than serendipitous; it is a testament to how far this team has come in the past decade. Jonathan Carson (right) and Tywan Ramsey (left) are ready to begin their college careers and play some football next fall for Central Michigan University (Jonathan) and South Dakota State University (Tywan).

Alderman Michael Murphy (seated at desk) was elected the City of Milwaukee Common Council President on Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Former Alderman Willie Hines held that position for a decade. Hines resigned from the council to accept a job with the City of Milwaukee Housing Authority.

Ald. Murphy elected Council President Murphy expresses appreciation I deeply appreciate and am greatly humbled by the trust and confidence entrusted in me by my colleagues. Today they elected me to serve as Common Council President, and in doing so gave me great responsibility not only in leading an esteemed body that I have proudly served for some 25 years, but also in working to improve our great city as a whole. As I told my colleagues and those gathered this morning in the Council Chamber, like any great city we have challenges. But in spite of the challenges, I know working together we can make a positive difference in the lives of our neighborhoods and our residents.

I am committed to accountability and transparency in all Council matters, and I will challenge my colleagues – and myself – to think boldly and to act with courage as we address the pressing and important business of the people of Milwaukee.

Ald. Michael Murphy

Strengths, experience reflected in changes in Common Council committee appointments

On Tuesday, February 11, 2014 Common Council President Michael J. Murphy announced a few changes to assignments for the seven standing committees of the Common Council, including one key appointment of a new committee chair. President Murphy has appointed Alderman Nik Kovac to succeed him as the new chair of the Finance and Personnel Committee. Alderman Kovac has served as vice chair of the committee since April 2012. “Alderman Kovac has shown an ability to grasp not only the complexities of the city budget, but also the connections and relationships in the budget which drive costs, which drive efficiencies and which ultimately determine how best to deliver valuable city services to the taxpayers of the City of Milwaukee,” President Murphy said. “We are certainly in good hands with a Harvard-educated mathematician (Alder-

man Kovac) leading the Finance and Personnel Committee,” he said. Replacing Alderman Kovac as vice chair of Finance and Personnel will be Alderman Joe Dudzik, a member of the committee since April 2008. President Murphy also announced that Alderman Terry L. Witkowski will be added to the committee, which automatically had a vacancy created when the Council elected Mr. Murphy president during Tuseday's regular Council meeting. The remaining committee chairs will stay the same: Alderman Robert J. Bauman, Public Works; Alderman Joe Davis, Sr., Community and Economic Development; Alderman Tony Zielinski, Licenses; Alderman Jim Bohl, Zoning, Neighborhoods and Development; Alderman Terry L. Witkowski, Public Safety; and Alderman Ashanti Hamilton, Judiciary and Legislation Committee.

Being Frank The lines of race in America are not as distinct as they once were. At one point in the history of America the line of race thought was clear: white, black. Later the thought became gray as the white/ black thought process disintegrated. But due to the increase of interactions between black and white and the x-factor brought in by other races those race thought lines are blurred at best. Many miss the good old days where everything in the USA was white and black. The race thought mentality was clear and rigid and the country seemed to thrive. Black people seemed to know who they were and White people knew who they were. Racism was a prevalent weapon to keep the white/ black thought process in ef-

fect. Things began to change when people of both races wanted to taste the fruit on the other side of the fence. Blacks were discontent with being black; they wanted something more, they wanted to be American. After various name changes black people got the name they craved: African American. By taking the last name of the country many black people felt they were just like a bride adopting her husband's surname. But like a woman who marries into a family they inherited the husband’s family and all it encompassed. On the other hand white people were looking at what black people were doing. White people began to like some of the characteristics black people had. The music black people created was off limits, but eventually white

people embraced jazz, then later R&B music. White people quickly realized that black entertainers were exciting and instant moneymakers. The intermingling that was once taboo because of the rigid white/black race thought began to blossom. There had always been interactions between whites and black people in personal matters but the paradigm went from one of degrading to respect. White males began to see African American females as wife material and not playthings. African American males stopped viewing the white female as a goddess and saw her as something attainable. The white and black lines of thought were fading, being replaced with beige. The tool of racism was no longer needed and only ex-

isted in people’s minds. By adding the influx from the Latino people and their culture the white/ black race thought mentality was over. America had become the melting pot it was always hyped up to be. If you look at television you can see Americans. The language used has no certain accent; it is plain English. If you watch the commercials you see people who may be different colors acting the same way. There is no black or white way to act; there is only the American way. There used to be a distinction in the way African Americans and Whites dressed. If you look at society basically everyone dresses the same. Businessmen wear suits. Upper class women wear power suits and fine dresses. The color of the person wearing

these types of clothes is defined to no one race. Even the sagging pants saga that rages in America isn’t defined to just one race. It’s a new day and there are no longer any defined race lines. White, Black, Latino, Asian all share traits that make these people American. That is the beauty of today; we live in a society that is golden brown.

When Black men flex, society gets scared By Walter Fields By chance I watched the NFC Championship football game at the home of a friend and former college football player, Vaughn McKoy. Of course, it was Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman who stole the show. Sherman’s infamously aggressive post-game interview triggered a debate over the appropriateness of his comments. For two Black men watching the game, few words needed to be spoken. I can’t express how much I loved Sherman’s passion and defiance. Here was a young Black man who takes extreme pride in his craft and is unafraid to proclaim himself the best at what he does. Sherman’s post-game proclamation was vintage Muhammad Ali. And like the boxing legend, the young Seattle defensive star is taking hits because he has enough selfconfidence to proclaim himself the best. When Donald Trump does it, he’s called confident, or a genius. When Richard Sherman does it he is belittled as an arrogant n---r. What a different nation we would be if more Black men felt free enough to claim their greatness; free enough to speak their mind; and bold enough to care less what others thought. The criticism of Sherman has been patently racist and in some instances, simply ignorant. Here is a professional athlete, at the top of his game, who warned that the opposition could not make a play on him. In his interview with ESPN’s Erin Andrews, who eventually defended Sherman, he did not use foul

language or use an obscene gesture, but simply made it clear that he was better than his opponent. I thought that’s what athletic competition was about. Channeling “the Greatest,” the Seahawk did not back down from his prior proclamations that the receiver in question, San Francisco’s Michael Crabtree, was mediocre. Whether that charge is legitimate or not, you can’t dispute the fact that Sherman lived up to his bravado. This episode is just another reminder that society likes its Black men docile, silent and intimidated. Sherman’s real offense is that he violated the social norm in America. How dare this young Black man proclaim himself the best? How arrogant that Sherman did not act more “gracefully” in victory and more diplomatically in his response. There would have been no “chatter” about Sherman had he responded in a more subdued manner. In fact, he would have been hailed as a “model” athlete, as someone worthy of adulation and emulation by youth. Instead, this bright, articulate and intelligent Stanford grad is attacked because he wasn’t Negro enough. When Black men flex, society gets scared. We are not supposed to be intelligent and confident enough to recognize our own value. We are expected to be subservient and to show deference to everyone, particularly those who theoretically exercise political or economic control over us. It is the residual residue of an era when we had to walk with heads lowered at the sight of a White person and dared not make eye

many of us. What a different nation we would be if more Black men felt free enough to claim their greatness, free enough to speak their mind, and bold enough to care

less what others thought. I’ll take Richard Sherman on my team any day. Walter Fields is Executive Editor of NorthStarNews.com.

The magnitude of Black History Month Walter Fields contact. Sherman held his head high and let the country know he knows how good he is. It was one of the most refreshing moments of television I have viewed in ages. Black men who flex have always upset the nation’s equilibrium. It was the defiance of Robeson, King, Malcolm, Huey, Elijah and Stokely that frightened America, more so than their actions against the nation. It is one thing to be great, it is quite another to know it and to not be diminished in your greatness by the insecurities of others. Black boys are demoralized in school buildings and scarce in the classroom. Black boys are emboldened by criminality and are disproportionately behind prison bars. Society takes great pleasure in emasculating Black males. I have seen it in the way Black men in executive positions in corporations and not-forprofit organizations cower and meekly subscribe to actions that further marginalize the masses. Many Black men have accepted their role to be barely seen and not heard. In one glorious unrehearsed moment of defiance, Sherman exhaled for

By Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson During the month of February the nation pauses to acknowledge the significant contributions made by people of African American ancestry to American greatness. The practice began in 1926 when Dr. Carter G. Woodson, a Harvard trained black historian, proclaimed that a time should be set aside to reflect on the achievements of blacks in America. Dr. Woodson, who headed the Washington D.C. based Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, chose February because President Abraham Lincoln and the great abolitionist Frederick Douglass were born during that month. Originally, the recognition occurred for a period of one week. In 1976 it was extended to an entire month. From its very inception, those who promulgated Black History Month articulated that the celebration was not only important to African Americans, but to all Americans. The black inventors, writers, engineers, business owners, political leaders, lawyers, medical professionals, clergy and athletes who have made monumental contributions to American

Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson life have enriched all of our citizens. Those who have contributed are not simply African American heroes, they are American heroes. Their accomplishments were not simply made for black people in this country. They were made for all people. When the World War II war hero, Doris Miller, a cook in the U.S. Navy left his ship’s kitchen to operate a machine gun to battle attacking enemy planes, he acted to protect the lives of all his fellow seamen. Many of those who were saved because of his heroics were not AfricanAmericans. When Bessie Coleman became the first black woman (Continued on pg. 19)

Michael Sam - an inspiration to all

By Rev. Al Sharpton President, National Action Network

rights as well. Despite my own religious views, I began to understand that you don't have to belong to a group in order to see how they are being oppressed. And at the end of the day, we are only as free and equal as how we treat those that are different from us, and when we all are accepted by the masses. What Michael Sam did took tremendous strength and valor. Not only did he proclaim his truth to the world, but he did so knowing that he could very well lose a lot in the process. In addition to putting a potential position within the NFL on the line, he risks losing endorsements and deals. In the ultra macho culture of football, Michael has made himself a target for homophobes and xenophobes. That is why it's incumbent upon all of us to stand with him. Instead of attacking him, we must applaud him for his bravery. He has chosen to serve as a positive role model for young gay and lesbian children everywhere who find it extremely difficult at times to feel accepted. Often bullied and ridiculed, they need to know that it's perfectly OK for them to be proud of who they are and that they too can achieve great things. As a black minister who

has been vocal about his support for the LGBT community for the past few years, I have been attacked by other ministers and preachers. But it is absolutely critical that we affirm people for who they are. We cannot castigate or ridicule individuals for living their lives and remaining honest to themselves. We should instead support them and learn from their struggles. Michael Sam is an inspiration to everyone who believes in justice across all lines -- all lines. Sometimes, it's easy to remain below the radar and not rock the boat. It's more comfortable to stay within acceptable norms and live your life, rather than draw attention to yourself. But it is only when those who have been rejected or dismissed by society fight for their equality and the equality of others that we see real change. It is never the carefree route, nor the simple route. Maybe that's why only a few select people have the distinct qualities to travel down that difficult road. Michael Sam has proven to be one of those unique individuals. His actions should give us all strength to live our truths no matter what the consequences may be. No justice until we are all free.

Fighting for equality is never an easy thing. To challenge discriminatory policies or change people's preconceived ideas is perhaps one of the most difficult things to do. While fighting for your rights is not an easy path however, fighting for the rights of others is even harder still. But when we can stand side-by-side with folks in their struggle, then and only then can we say that we have truly arrived. This weekend, Michael Sam, the all-American defensive lineman from the University of Missouri, revealed that he is gay. As a top potential draft pick, he could very well be the NFL's first openly gay player. Whether we ourselves are gay or straight, we should applaud this young man for his courage, and in turn affirm who we are no matter what the reaction may be, just as he so bravely has done. When I was growing up, it was difficult to even mention the word gay around friends or family, let alone strangers. That's why I simply cannot imagine what life was like for my sister, a lesbian. I painfully watched both the racism and homophobia that she personally had to deal with. In fact, it was her battles and her very real agony that directly led me to face my own homophobia. I realized that you cannot fight Michael Sam is on the verge of becoming the for a cause you believe in if others are being denied their first openly gay player in the NFL.

Wisconsin should create opportunity for all in 2014 By Urban Media News The lights and cameras added to the spectacle of President Obama’s State of the Union address, but his message to the nation that night was simple: “Opportunity for all.” For years since the recession, working class people have struggled to keep their heads above water and feel like they can’t get ahead no matter how many jobs they have or extra hours they work. However as the economy starts to recover it's time to think about what can be done to restore the belief that if you work hard and play by the rules you can get ahead. The President made it clear that raising wages was key to the recovery and urged every state and city not to wait for Congress, but to do what was in their power to give America a raise. Leading by example, he announced he’d issue an executive order requiring federal contractors to pay their federally-funded employees a fair wage of at least $10.10 an hour. In Wisconsin, we can start by giving a raise to the hundreds of thousands of people working minimum wage jobs. Right now, for workers making $7.25, taking care of a family is a lot harder than it

has to be. A raise to $10.10 will create a wealth of opportunities for an estimated 230,000 workers across the state. That increase will mean an additional $5,900 per worker annually - real money that can give struggling households a chance to get back on track. Ideas for raising wages in our state are gaining real momentum. This week, Democratic candidate for Governor Mary Burke announced her support for increasing Wisconsin’s minimum wage to $10.10 an hour after talking to small business owners on the campaign trail. Burke supports modest, gradual increases in three stages over the next two years in order to strengthen the middle class. We can make sure that every Wisconsinite has an equal opportunity to succeed. The state’s projected budget surplus should be used to invest in strong public schools, create quality job-training programs, and make sure that higher education is an accessible and affordable path to the middle class. Last year, governors all over the country - including Wisconsin- looked to score political points by rejecting billions in federal Medicaid dollars. It’s not too late for us to put health before politics. (Continued on pg. 18)

Try new things that make you feel good about yourself. Once you have forgiven yourself and let the shame go, move forward. Beloved, shame is one of those things that the Bible speaks of as an imagination that must be cast down. (See 2 Corinthians 10:4-5). An imagination is an image in your mind that is incorrect. Any and every high thing, including a high towering imagination, reasoning or argument that advances itself against the Gospel of Christ, must be brought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. In other words, if you see yourself as a failure, when you are a blood-washed child of God... you’ve got an imagination that needs to be

dealt with! Instead of meditating on your failures, begin to meditate on the truth in God’s Word concerning your past failures. Isaiah 1:18 says: Come now, let us settle the matter, says the Lord. Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.

What’s Happening?

Black Firsts Alexander Lucius Twilight (September 26, 1795 – June 19, 1857), born free in Vermont, was the first African American person known to have earned a bachelor's degree from

an American college or university upon graduating Middlebury College in 1823. An educator, minister and politician, he was licensed as a Congregational preacher, and

worked in ministry and education all his career. In 1829 Twilight became principal of the Orleans County Grammar School. There he designed and built Athenian Hall, the first granite public building in

the state. In 1836 he was the first African American elected to public office as a state legislator, serving in the Vermont General Assembly.

Bulletin Board Fourth annual ‘Pink Out’ days, games at MPS’ Rufus King H.S. have already raised $1,000 Sisters lead effort to add to $3,000 multi-year total "Pink Out” days and basketball games at Milwaukee Public Schools’ Rufus King International Baccalaureate School – High School Campus are raising awareness and funds to battle breast cancer. On the “Pink Out” days, students wear pink to show their support. That includes basketball players, who sport tie-dye pink jerseys and pink socks. Rufus King students have already raised close to $3,000 for the cause over the past three years. The 4th-annual effort has already raised $1,000 from T-shirt sales, according to twin sister seniors Alexandra and Samantha Adams, who are leading the cause this year. The battle against cancer is a personal one for the sisters. Their father survived a bout with brain cancer. Their aunt fought breast cancer – and survived – twice. “It was really only when I

sat down and thought about how much this illness has affected my family on both sides did I realize this is an important cause and we need to support it as much as we can,” Alexandra Adams said. She and her sister Samantha are taking on the project this year as part of the Creativity, Action and Service (CAS) component of the International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma they are pursuing at Rufus King. Along with about a dozen student volunteers, the Adams sisters are raising money by selling T-shirts and creating posters honoring those who have battled any cancer. Donations are also being collected at the games, with all funds going to the United Way aimed at supporting those impacted by breast cancer. Rufus King’s “Pink Out” started in response to a former staff member’s fight with

breast cancer, in addition to the many students and staff in the school who have had loved ones impacted. "Pink Out" games are also a part of the schedule at other MPS schools, including Alexander Hamilton High School. MPS Superintendent Gregory Thornton and Rufus King High School Principal Jennifer Smith applauded the students’ efforts. “It’s been unbelievable,” said Diane Hardy, a Rufus King High School teacher and the academic adviser for the basketball team. “I’m truly astounded. Year after year, the pink just spreads.”

Talking Health with Dr. Carter

By Dr. Lester Carter Owner, Carter Drug Store

5:2, how about you?

Longevity and intermittent fasting, is it right for you?

With health delivery in such chaos and uncertainty, we at Carter Drug Store suggest arming yourselves with the latest up to date information, which hopefully will prevent minimum problems from escalating into major problems. You and your loved ones deserve the best treatment possible to survive in these difficult times.

Would you reduce your caloric intake significantly if it meant living a longer, healthier life? The only means known to increase life span is the drastic reduction of calories. Called caloric restriction (CR), this scientifically validated method has extended the life span of a number of species, from microorganisms to mammals. Perhaps the most comprehensive study to date involved 10 Rhesus monkeys. Published in Science in 2009, the results of the 20 year study demonstrated the capacity of CR to delay aging and fight disease. (“Monkey Business”, below.) Probably because of the number of aging, health conscious baby boomers (or possibly because of the growing obesity epidemic), CR is

gaining interest and participation. In this issue, we take a closer look at the benefits of restricting calories and introduce a technique called intermittent fasting (IF). Not only does IF make reducing normal caloric intake by at least 20 percent a more viable option, it has been shown to outperform CR. Monkey business In the benchmark study, Rhesus monkeys were chosen as subjects because their biological and aging characteristics are very similar to ours. One group of primates was allowed to eat freely while the other received a nutrient replete diet that had 30 percent fewer calories than they would normally eat. By the end of the study, all the biomarkers of health were superior in the CR diet. In fact, only 13 percent in that group had died of agerelated causes while 37 percent of the controls were gone. Further, among the CR group, the incidence of heart disease was half that of controls. The CR monkeys lost fat, but not muscle mass. Not one of them had

impaired glucose control or diabetes. On the other hand, among the monkeys who ate normally, 40 percent were diabetic or prediabetic. Lastly, our brain shrinks as we age; likewise, in aging Rhesus monkeys. However, CR inhibited age-related brain shrinkage, particularly in areas governing cognitive and motor function. Sound interesting? Monkeying around At a time when obesity, diabetes, and heart disease are rampant, caloric restriction and its kinder, gentler cousin, intermittent fasting (IF), have profound implications for all of us. More than 70 years of research show that individuals who reduce the calories they eat by 20 percent for 2-6 years not only lose fat, they trigger a cascade of anti-ag-

ing mechanisms in the body. There are two tricks involved here. In both our prehistoric and more recent past, our ancestors faced a consistently unreliable food supply. This taught our bodies to survive times of starvation (fasting). Because of this, we are designed to eat as much as we can as long as food is available. We continue to have that urge, except that now food is available 24/7. Not only are we biologically programmed to eat it, we are encouraged to do so. Trick No. 1 is that IF trains us/our bodies to keep our minds off food. In other words, by initiating fasting, we get off the old Seafood Diet. (You know, “If you see food, eat it.”) Secondly, as we age – an occurrence that begins around age 40 – systems turn down or turn off all together. Apparently, Mother Nature doesn’t care about us once this happens. However, she reverses her position when she senses we’re facing environmental stress. And, the stress of 20 percent reduced calorie intake initiates this response.

E-cigarette use more than doubles among U.S. middle and high school students from 2011-2012 More than 75 percent of youth users smoke conventional cigarettes, too The percentage of U.S. middle and high school students who use electronic cigarettes, or e-cigarettes, more than doubled from 2011 to 2012, according to data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The findings from the National Youth Tobacco Survey, in Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, show that the percentage of high school students who reported ever using an e-cigarette rose from 4.7 percent in 2011 to 10.0 percent in 2012. In the same time period, high school students using e-cigarettes within the past 30 days rose from 1.5 percent to 2.8 percent. Use also doubled among middle school students. Altogether, in 2012 more than 1.78 million middle and high school students nationwide had tried e-cigarettes. “The increased use of ecigarettes by teens is deeply

troubling,” said CDC Director Tom Frieden, M.D., M.P.H. “Nicotine is a highly addictive drug. Many teens who start with e-cigarettes may be condemned to struggling with a lifelong addiction to nicotine and conventional cigarettes.” Electronic cigarettes, or e-cigarettes, are batterypowered devices that provide doses of nicotine and other additives to the user in an aerosol. E-cigarettes not marketed for therapeutic purposes are currently unregulated by the Food and Drug Administration. The FDA Center for Tobacco Products has announced that it intends to expand its jurisdiction over tobacco products to include e-cigarettes, but has not yet issued regulatory rules. Because e-cigarettes are largely unregulated, the agency does not have good information about them, such as (Continued on pg. 18)

Hence, Trick No. 2: Once we begin using IF techniques, our anti-aging mechanisms begin to switch back on. Intermittent fasting affects our genes, reprogramming them and giving us a more youthful biological profile. In his book, The Gene Smart Diet, Floyd H. Chilton, PhD, names this rejuvenation phenomenon the Adaptive Stress Response (ARS). The ARS involves favorable alterations in gene expression, activating certain genes and disabling others. This activity can slow aging dramatically by simultaneously regulating a broad spectrum of aging factors. These range from inflammation and metabolic function to immune response and the health of our mitochondria. Reprinted With Permission Copyright © Nutrition News 2013 Home of the "Is It Healthy?"

Celebrating Black History Month

First black congresswoman honored with postage stamp

What's in a name? ''Negro," the N-word, and many others

By: Stephanie Allen-Gobert On Friday, January 31, at 11:00 am, black elected officials and activists celebrated the legacy of Bed-Stuy native Shirley Chisholm, with the unveiling of a USPS forever stamp. The celebration and unveiling took place at Brooklyn’s Borough Hall. Chisholm is the country’s first black congresswoman who later ran for president in 1972. The stamp, part of USPS “Black Heritage Series,” was originally painted by American artist Robert Shetterly as part of his “Americans Who Tell the Truth Series.”The Black Heritage forever stamp kicked off Black History Month. The Brooklyn born Democrat, Chisholm served seven terms in Congress, from 1969 until her retirement in 1982, representing central Brooklyn and becoming a founding member of the House of Representatives’ black caucus in 1969. She died in 2005. Chisholm was characterized by her fire and commitment. At the time of her 1972 presidential campaign, Chisholm was the first person of color to seek the presidential nomination of

a major political party. She ran in order to show underrepresented members of society that their faces could also be seen in the spotlight, she said. Chisholm also was a founding member of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) in 1971 and the Congressional Women’s Caucus in 1977. “I ran because somebody had to do it first,” Chisholm said at the time. Chisholm’s campaign motto was “Unbought and Unbossed” and among issues that made her stand out against opponent Farmer (they agreed on many points) she highlighted discrimination against women. Her district with a liberal bend and 80 percent registered Democrats gave her 67 percent of

the vote. “Congresswoman Chisholm’s ground breaking and historic advocacy for women and the African American community across the nation is a source of constant strength and inspiration, as I serve many of the same communities she represented,” Assemblyman Walter Mosely said. “Every day when I walk into my office at the Shirley Chisholm State Office Building and am greeted by her portrait outside my door, I am reminded of her legacy as one of the greatest catalysts for change of the 20th century.” The stamps are currently available for purchase at USPS locations or online.

"African," "Afro-American," "colored," "Negro, "black," and "African American" are just some of the names used to describe people who trace their roots to the African continent. The constantly evolving terms largely reflect developments in African American culture and its relationship to the dominant white culture. The changes also reveal African Americans' ongoing quest for self-identity and self-determination. Surprisingly, ''Negro" didn't always refer to black people. At times, it also included Asians and in the New World, Native Americans. In 19th-century runaway announcements, the term "negro" identified black Americans. Progressive institutions such as the African Methodist Episcopal Church preferred the term "African," but "colored" was widely used. In 1829, David Walker addressed his famous appeal to the "colored citizens of the world." The use of "colored" by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) indicates the term's positive

value in the early 20th centery; in the years between the two world wars, the NAACP actually spearheaded the use of "Negro" with a capital "n," and that usage persisted into the 1960s. As the civil rights movement gave way to the black power movement, "black" replaced "Negro." The 1980's ushered in the use of "African American," which supporters such as Jesse Jackson insist is a reflection of both an African and American identity. However, some argue that it isn't specific enough, because white Africans such as actress Charlize Theron are technically African American. Today, people often use "African American" and "black" interchangeably. Slaves sometimes referred to themselves as "niggers" in front of whites to indicate their servility, and the term was widely used in early European and American history to. refer to African Americans, including usage in novels such as Mark Twain's (Continued on pg. 19)

Comforting Complements

A spicy red with raspberry and peppery flavors, Zinfandel pairs particularly well with the flavors of winter — the season where comfort food is king. When searching for the perfect complement to your hearty, comfort fare, go for wines that deliver on quality at a fair price. Discover Amador County, an up-and-coming wine region nestled in the rolling Sierra Foothills of California, through the wines of Renwood Winery. The winery runs under the direction of Joe Shebl, a talented winemaker whose artistic vision and passion for both Zinfandel and Amador County shows in every bottle.

One Healthy Spud

Beyond their appearance in some of the most beloved dishes, potatoes also boast many benefits to your diet. Here are few reasons to add this versatile vegetable into meals: n Potassium — Potatoes are a great source of potassium, which may help lower high blood pressure, making them a heart-healthy choice. In fact, potatoes contain more potassium than a banana or spinach. n Vitamins — A spud a day may keep the cold germs away. One medium-sized spud has nearly half the recommended daily value of vitamin C and is also a good source of vitamin B6. n Dietary fiber — Potatoes are also a source of dietary fiber, a complex carbohydrate, which is known to increase satiety and help with weight loss. n Gluten free — Potatoes are a naturally gluten-free food, so those with gluten sensitivity can enjoy this flavorful vegetable.

FEBRUARY ANNOUNCEMENTS

Opportunity for all (Continued from pg. 4) Our legislature can still reverse the decision and accept federal funding that would insure 85,000 of the neediest Wisconsinites - giving them access to crucial health services at a much lower cost to the state. President Obama said that 2014 can be a breakthrough year for America, but we have to put real people above ideology. We have to think about creating opportunities for all - not just for some. In the last three years, our state has seen leaders cater mainly to the individuals and corporations who make large campaign donations. At the same time, we’ve seen neighboring states like Minnesota grow their economy by asking the rich to pay their fair share and investing in the middle-class. It's time for us to follow suit and create opportunity for all Wisconsinites. People struggling day to day can’t afford for our state to fall farther behind on jobs, fair wages, health care, or education.

E-cigarettes (Continued from pg. 14)

the amounts and although some e-cigarettes have been marketed as smoking cessation aids, there is no conclusive scientific evidence that e-cigarettes promote successful long-term quitting. However, there are proven cessation strategies and treatments, including counseling and FDA-approved cessation medications. Cigarette smoking remains the leading preventable cause of disease, disability, and

death in the United States, responsible for an estimated 443,000 deaths each year. And for every one death, there are 20 people living with a smoking-related disease. To quit smoking, free help is available at 1-800QUIT NOW or www.cdc. gov/tips. Under the Affordable Care Act, more Americans than ever will qualify to get health care coverage that fits their needs and budget, including important preventive services such as services to quit smoking that are covered with no additional costs.

What's in a name? (Continued from pg. 15) classic Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884). Although widely used, "nigger" was rarely a positive term, a point underscored in the midst of the civil rights movement when newspapers and televisions frequently quoted hostile white Americans using the word freely. Some black Americans make distinctions between "nigger" and "nigga ." African Americans almost never view the former positively.

On the other hand, some African Americans view the latter more positively when used among African Americans, although saying it aggressively can indicate hostility. While hip-hop songs and comedy routines use the term liberally, it's generally unacceptable for nonAfrican Americans to use "nigga" or "nigger" under any circumstances. The unwritten rule is that blacks can use the term and nonblacks can't. Of course, many black Americans, such as Oprah Winfrey, believe that absolutely no one should use the word under any circumstances.

Black History Month (Continued from pg. 4) in the world to earn a pilot’s license, she made a significant contribution to the struggle of all women in this country for dignity and self-determination. When Alvin Ailey choreographed dance his desire was to touch the hearts and the spirits of people throughout the world who were moved by his majestic artistry. When Barbara Jordan became the first African American female from the south to serve in the House of Representatives she encouraged legions of women, black, brown and white who had been told that there was no place for them in the halls of power where decisions that affected the lives of people, including their own, were made. I could fill countless numbers of pages with the names of African Americans who have accomplished great things in their lifetimes. It is vitally important that we remember them and their work as they have helped to change all of our lives, and the life of a nation. Even today, African-Americans make vital contributions to American life. The president of our nation, an African American, leads the most powerful nation on the face of the earth. When he makes a decision he makes it in the best interests of all Americans. We must always remember, however, that these amazing achievements belong to all of us. The history of African American people, like the history of other ethnic groups in our country, has enriched all of our citizens, and has contributed to the standing that America has in the world today. Congresswoman Johnson is the most senior Congressional Democrat in Texas and the Ranking Member on the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology.
