President Obama meets with black leaders During the final Black History Month of his administration, President Barack Obama met on February 18 with a number of civil rights leaders prior to the annual reception. This was the first meeting of its kind during the President’s two terms. Its purpose was to meet with leaders who represent different generations of the civil rights movement in order to discuss a range of issues, including President Obama’s efforts on criminal justice reform, building trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve and the President’s priorities during his final year in office. Attorney General Loretta Lynch was also present. The invited guests numbered about two dozen individuals including Black Lives Matter Chicago co-founder Aislinn Pulley, National Bar Association President Ben Crump, National Action Network

Founder and President Al Sharpton, National Urban League President Marc Morial and Brittany Packnett, member of the President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing and co-founder of We the Protesters and Campaign Zero. Following the meeting, the President and First Lady attended the Black History Month reception at the White House. The reception was the climax of a number of events to honor the contributions that African Americans have made to the United States. Earlier this month, First Lady Michelle Obama hosted a celebration of dance with noted African American dancers from different genres. Last week the White House Council on Women and Girls hosted an event to highlight the efforts of individuals and organizations to get women and girls of color involved in STEM.

The children recited the quotes, which also included a dramatization of the story of Rosa Parks, the ‘first lady’ of civil rights. The afternoon reception was built around the theme of “Decades of Giants” honored living Wisconsin history makers such as Lester Carter, R.Ph., a pharmacist and owner of Carter Drug Store who dedicated his life to the health and welfare of the Milwaukee African American community and who is an honored pioneer in the use of homeopathic treatment of disease. William Finlayson, MD, an obstetrician and gynecologist who also taught at both of Wisconsin’s medical schools and opened the state’s first black-owned bank was also honored; as was Irene Goggans, Ph.D., who created an archive that consists of 300 scrapbooks, and Milwaukee County Board Commissioner on Aging Viola (Vi) Hawkins. Longtime Milwaukee activists, educators and community leaders Reuben and Mildred Harpole were also honored for establishing a scholarship to encourage African Americans to go into teaching; as well as Robert and Pearl Beckley, owners of an independent grocery store which sought to stock healthy food at reasonable prices within the community. Also honored were Gwen T.

Being Frank

By: Frank James Special to the Milwaukee Times

Love and African Americans (part two) Who is the most beautiful, seductive, caring and nurturing being on the planet? If you answered the African American female, then you are correct. Over the centuries the African American female has been one of the most sought-after creatures on the planet. Sadly the African American female has been one of the most manipulated beings on the planet. This is a conclusion article about Love in the African American community for Black History Month. What was the epitome of beauty for the world? What female was the standard for ingenuity and creativity? What female’s love was sought after and taken by force if necessary? What female has been tricked and misled by a system that knew they were the key to conquest? The African American female is the correct answer to all of the above. The African American female’s ability to love and shape a nation is the key to the situation the African American community is in today.

There has never been a female put into the position the African American female was placed into in the USA. When the African American female first arrived, Caucasians understood she was the key to control. The slave system was designed to change the African American female mentality from caring and loving to a mind whipped tool of conquest. The key to continued Caucasian rule was to twist the African American female's concept of love. The system had to redefine her concept of love and how to gauge those worthy of it. Is there any wonder that today’s African American female can’t show love to anyone, not even herself ? If you look around the world today the fruit from the manipulation of African American females is evident. There is a lunatic struggle in the African American family because of the lack of true love. African American women have been trained to raise men who aren’t a threat

to the power structure. The African American female, on the other hand, shapes females who become the guardians of the oppressive system. The African American female’s misguided judging of the African American male on a scale created by Caucasians keeps the system going. This is why the African American female doesn’t get the love she needs from an African American male. Have you ever wondered why you see so many African American men trailing behind their women? Isn’t that how a son follows his

mother? Have you ever wondered why the most intelligent and attractive African American women are with men clearly not on their level? This is a result of the form of love the USA created for African Americans. The love of a mother and son should not be the model for a marriage. The ego soothing love of someone who isn’t a challenge and easily manipulated is not the answer. This is why there are so many bitter African American females in the world. The African American female needs to be taken care of tenderly. In the crazy society of the USA, the African American female is on the battlefront. With this in mind she needs to be catered to. Where African Americans of both sexes go wrong is that they think the catering means material things. This misconception is the one the system exploits to keep the African American male and female from ever achieving true love.

In all fairness to the African American female, the majority of African American males are pathetic. The oversized boys and immature clowns that parade around as African American males are sad. This is the reason you see more African American females with the Caucasian male. There is an increase of African American females with females that are impersonating men. Neither of the previous two options is productive to the African American community. Until African Americans figure out true love, suffering will be the norm.

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free; I’m following the path God laid for me. I took His hand when I heard him call; I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way; I found the peace at the close of day. If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss; Oh yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I savored much, Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch. Perhaps my time seemed all to brief; Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts and share with me, God wanted me now; He set me free.

InALoving MemoryPallbearers Of Letter I’ve never known life without you. You were always here for me—always. I jokingly tell people, no matter how outrageous the request, I knew that if I could bypass Mama and get to you, you would make it happen. The word “no” never applied to me. Thank you was never enough and it still isn’t. You constantly told me, “Boo, you made your old man proud!” You have no idea how proud I am to be your daughter. Daddy, I thank you for an unconditional and unyielding love. Thank you for being ever-present. Thank you for educating me. Thank you for supporting me, and thank you for being you. We would sit and talk about absolutely nothing of substance, but those are such fond memories.

A Grandson’s Love Celebrating the Life of :

I’m told the doctors did not think my Mom could successfully carry me, but my Grandma knew better. She watched over my Mom and me everyday before I was born, and if you know my Mom, then you know that was no easy task. My Mom was in the hospital for 3 days having problems with my birth. Grandma took the City bus to the hospital and told the doctor to get me born, and within minutes my Mom was on her way to the operating room. From the time I was born my Grandma taught me everything: how to eat, how to drink from a cup, how to tie my shoes, she taught me my ABC’s and my one, two, threes. I really didn’t think there was a need to go off to school, because Grandma had taught me so much. But she made me start kindergarten. I shared everything I learned with her. I once found a garden snake, and I put it in my pocket to take home so I could show it to Grandma. But unfortunately it crawled out into the classroom during nap time. Grandma went with me on field trips, and all my classmates loved her. Grandma accepted every school project I made her as though it were a million dollar gift. She even kept the blue fur picture frame I gave her. When I would get to her apartment after school, she would always have a great meal ready. Sometimes we would have pork chops, chicken, greens, mashed potatoes, man we ate good. She could prepare potatoes 100 different ways. Once I told her I wanted yams after school, and she asked me, “am I your Grandmother or your wife”. But the next day we had yams. When I was in second grade, Grandma went on vacation and she planned to be gone for a month. I went on a hunger strike, and it worked too because she cut her vacation short. Grandma and I did everything together. We would get on the City bus and go all over the Valley and L.A. We would just go, if we got loss, well, no big deal because we were together. Our favorite spot was Sizzlers. We went to Mexico together on a cruise. We went all over the ship exploring while my Mom was in the infirmary seasick. Grandma always encouraged me to do well in school and she used to come to my basketball games. Even though she did not understand all the rules she was always there in the front row. Grandma was a good protector too. Whenever my Mom or Dad spanked me she would always step in to make sure they didn’t spank me too hard. Grandma taught me so many life lessons and I know she will continue to watch over me from Heaven. I know I speak for all her grandchildren and great grandchildren when I say, we could not have had any greater love than Grandma’s love. – By Gavin Wright

Acknowledgment Thank you for weeping “with them that weep,” as the Bible describes in Romans 12:15. According to John 11:35, even Jesus wept with those who wept because He understands sorrow. If you’ve ever lost a loved one, you understand our grief, loss and loneliness. However, despite the pain there is comfort and hope because of the promises of God, who is personally interested in us and is “touched with the feeling of our infirmities” (Hebrews 4:15). There is a place called Heaven. My husband/Father trusted Christ for salvation, and, because of this, is in Heaven now! The Bible makes it clear that when one who trusts Christ dies, he or she is “absent 5665 N. Teutonia Avenue • 414-358-0538 from the body” and present with Lord” (II Corinthians 5:8). So it is that we know we will be reunited 2535 N. Teutonia Avenue • 414-264-0600 someday. And it has been promised that in Heaven He will “wipe away all tears” from our eyes Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Revelation 7:17). It has been said that there are two kinds of funerals: those without hope and those with hope. Taylor Avenue • 262-632-7300 This was a funeral with hope. 1910 This hope can be yours in the face of any fear or sorrow. You can know Racine, that will go immediately to God’s Heaven whenWisconsin you leave this world. And your loved ones can have this hope, too.

Harold Wilburn, Jr.

Read John 3:36, John 14:2,3, Acts 4:12, John 14:6 Whether through death or the Lord’s return, we will be together in Heaven with the Lord. May it be that you and your loved ones will join us, too. Thank you again for your kindness.

Acknowledgements

The family of Eugene Bishop acknowledges with love, your heartfelt prayers, calls, visits and support. Your expressions of love have given us strength and inspiration to face this hour. We really appreciate all of you!

Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a floral piece, if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words that any friend could say; December 7, 1933 Perhaps you were not there at all, just thought of us that day. Whatever you did to console our hearts, We thank you so much whatever the part.

I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one. I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done. I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, Of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days. I'd like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun of happy memories that I leave when life is done.

The Counseling Corner

By Rev. Judith T. Lester, B.Min. M.Th

African American women who changed history (Week 3) Spotlight: Dorothy Height (1912-2010) Civil Rights and Women’s Rights Activist Born on March 24, 1912, in Richmond, VA, Dorothy Height spent her life fighting for civil rights and women's rights. The daughter of a building contractor and a nurse, Height moved with her family to Rankin, PA, in her youth. There, she attended racially integrated schools. Later Height earned two degrees from New York University, a bachelor's degree in education in 1930 and a master's degree in psychology in 1932. Height joined the staff of the Harlem YWCA in 1937 where she had a life-changing encounter not long after starting work there. Height met educator and founder of the National Council of Negro Women Mary McLeod Bethune when Bethune and U.S. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt came to visit her facility. Height soon volunteered with the NCNW and became close to Bethune.

One of Height's major accomplishments at the YWCA was directing the integration of all of its centers in 1946. She also established its Center for Racial Justice in 1965, which she ran until 1977. In 1957, Height became the president of the National Council of Negro Women. Through the center and the council, she became one of the leading figures of the Civil Rights Movement. In 1963, Height was one of the organizers of the famed March on Washington. She stood close to Martin Luther King, Jr., when he delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech. Despite her skills as a speaker and a leader, Height was not invited to talk that day. Height later wrote that the March on Washington event had been an eye-opening experience for her. Height joined in the fight for women's rights. In 1971, she helped found the National Women's Political Caucus with Gloria Steinem, Betty Friedan and Shirley Chisholm. While she retired from the YWCA in 1977, Height con-

George W. Bush gave Height the Congressional Gold Medal. She later befriended the first African American president of the United States, Barack Obama, who called her "the godmother of the Civil Rights Movement," according to The New York Times. Height died in Washington, DC, on April 20, 2010. Beloved, in an article published by the Department of Interior on the African American Legacy and the Challenges of the 21st century, it concluded: “….Racism may never be fully eliminated from our society. But it would never have been challenged if those who took part in the Civil Rights Movement did not have the courage and desire to make all of our lives better.” May we always be in remembrance to those men and women who made bold sacrifices in the struggle for civil rights.

tinued to run the NCNW for two more decades. One of her later projects was focused on strengthening the African American family. In 1986, Height organized the first Black Family Reunion, a celebration of traditions and values. The event is still held annually. Height received many honors for her contributions to Source: Biography of Dorothy society.

COMMUNITY COLUMN Creativity, connections help UWM student start her own business Cordella Jones doesn’t hang out with bankers and angel investors in her everyday life. Nor is she ready for a guest appearance on “Shark Tank.” But she got support in starting her own business through one of several programs at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) designed to encourage students and alumni to turn their ideas into businesses. Jones won a year’s worth of coaching by placing in the Student Startup Challenge, a competition based not on a business plan, but on the strength of a promising idea. It’s one component of UWM’s startup culture, which offers support, events and services to get students and alumni thinking like leaders and planning like business owners. Jones’ proposal to develop a mobile friendly, web-based information bank to help families and teachers match students to programs to improve educational outcomes earned her a top 10 finish in the 2014 UWM Student Startup Challenge. Her proposed program identifies resources for kids in kindergarten through 12th grade. Now in her 30s, Jones enrolled in the university’s Lubar School of Business in 2013 after taking almost two decades away from college. She works at BMO Harris Bank, and plans to use her UWM degree to advance both her banking career and

Cordella Jones her business. She wanted to do more than just improve her business skills, however. She wanted to use her creative side. “To know me personally is to know I’m always thinking of a business idea. My dad was a small businessman and I grew up with that background. When I saw the Student Startup Challenge on campus, I thought: ‘This is perfect. I can actually see if I

have good ideas or if I’m just coming up with stuff'.” Her idea, ASAPk!ds, grew directly out of her own experiences as a young black woman who was a first-generation college student. “I feel like the reason my first time around at the university wasn’t as successful was that, at that time, I don’t think I was really prepared… I struggled academically and financially. “I didn’t have that family

network to help me prepare for college. So when I got older, I started to realize that if you don’t have a family that works for the school administration or if you aren’t referred to local programs, your family kind of struggles to get you connected and financially supported.” ASAPk!ds is a web-based application she’s developed to help parents and teachers find resources that are available in the community to help them improve children’s learning and lives. While there are many enrichment programs available, most of them are not one-size-fits-all programs. Other students, especially those who are potential first generation college students, ,may have different challenges or different interests. In addition, she said, most households and classrooms are too busy to keep up with the full range of educational resources available and fit them to the needs of individual children. “If you have one child interested in athletics and another interested in math and science and then another one who has some type of disability, you’re all over the place trying to find information. I think there is a feeling of guilt in the community that many parents and teachers have for not having enough time in a day to gather the information to help their students. Control I think is what people need, some way to take action now

and not later.” Jones also felt that having one comprehensive, organized site where parents and teachers can find diverse academic enrichment and support resources could be useful. “It just made me think. ‘Why doesn’t this information exist in one location? Why should you have to go all over the place'?” After she came up with the name, ASAPk!ds, she got so excited about it that she actually bought the domain name. A year later, she decided to enter the grant competition. “I pitched it and they liked it.” With the help of the seed money and support from the Startup Challenge and other entrepreneurial programs, she has developed a prototype with the UWM App Brewery, established her own limited liability corporation, started testing the ASAPk!ds app and is interested in making partnerships in the business community with more student program providers to pilot this spring. “With Wisconsin ranking 50th in entrepreneurship among the states and the challenges that women-led technology startups face in terms of raising funds, the chances of ASAPk!ds going to market may have never happened without the early support and seed funding from the UWM community,” Jones said.

These heart disease risk factors are more potent in women than men

When it comes to risk factors for heart disease, Black women have to be more careful than Black men. Yes, heart disease disproportionately affects the entire Black community. But, according to the Emmy-nominated Dr. Jennifer H. Mieres, certain risk factors predisposed to heart disease are more potent in women. That includes hypertension and diabetes, Mieres said. Other examples of those at higher risk for heart disease include: • Women with polycystic ovarian syndrome • Women with menopause before age 45 • Women with pregnancy-related complication (diabetes, hypertension, eclamp-

sia) • Women with autoimmune diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, lupus) • Women with hypertension are at the highest risk for heart failure, followed by

Mieres said. The Heart Smart for Black Women and Latinas book author shared a list of healthy eating, activity, stress control and other habits to prevent or manage heart disease. • Make your plate more colorful. • Eat a healthy breakfast every day. • Have two servings of fatty fish every week (salmon, mackerel). • Avoid processed foods and avoid adding sugar. • Bake and broil and avoid frying. • Put down the salt shaker.

Your next bite: Are you missing this one essential vitamin? What if the next bite you ate determined your outlook for the next three to six hours or six years? What if every time you ate you could eat in such a way that made you a more amazing person? Well, you can. The food you eat could remove biological and emotional barriers that are preventing the “real” you from showing up. I know that seems ludicrous and extreme, but how you respond and interact in the world is directly related to many factors, including the areas where crime is the dren are generally perform your diet. Think about it. In highest or areas where chil- below average in school, what do you find? You guessed it: poor food options. Research has shown that the quality of food you eat directly affects your outcomes in attitude, focus, emotions, weight, attention, your immune system and energy, to name a few.

One of the interesting facts about fast food choices is that they often lack the essential vitamin folate. In fact, not only fast foods, but most foods that have been throughly cooked. Folate is a necessary B vitamin used to help manage your mental and biochemical function. It’s commonly found in leafy green vegetables, among other healthy plantbased choices. According to the Global Healing Center,”Folate has a positive action on cardiovascular, neural and psycho-emotional health.” That being said, if there’s a lack of it in our diets, then no wonder we see more violence and poorer educational performance. If we take folate as one example and combine it with foods that are nutrient-emp-

ty, like breads or high fructose corn syrup, we’re making the problem even worse. Basically, we’re absorbing more drugs (man-made food) as experiments into our lives as subjects, not proven science. Find out for yourself. Plan one full week of meals that contain leafy greens that are either raw (e.g., a salad) or lightly sautéed before every meal, including breakfast, and see how you feel at the end of the week. Provided you drink ample water, you will notice some differences in your thinking, body and even your stools. Friends, this is real. We must garner a sense of urgency about our diets. Food has the power to drive us to death, or awaken us to opportunities for our skills, gifts and talents to shine.

Making phased retirement work for you

Phased retirement – a catchall term that describes a variety of part-time and reduced-hour work arrangements before leaving an employer for good – is gaining steam. But before you sign on, it's important to understand how "phasing out" may affect your long-term finances. Washington is leading the way. The federal government authorized the move for its own employees several years ago and began accepting applications in late 2014 from workers aged 55 and up with a desire to switch to half-time employment in exchange for receiving half their salary and annuity. For employees with a longterm view, phased retirement can offer significant benefits, but it requires due diligence and planning. Among the advantages, phased retirement means that there doesn't need to be a hard stop on a successful career. In fact, a 2014 study (http:// n e w s r o o m . b a n ko f a m e rica.com/press-releases/ global-wealth-and-invest-

ment-mana g e m e n t / mer rill-lynchstudy-finds-72percent-people-o) by Merrill Lynch in partnership with Age Wave said that 72 percent of pre-retirees over the age of 50 report that their ideal retirement will include working "often in new, more flexible and fulfilling ways." The study also noted that 47 percent of current retirees were already working or planning to work during their retirement years. If your company is talking about phased retirement or may do so in the future, here are some key questions to consider: What exactly do you want to phase into? For some workers, retirement really will mean a classic vision of travel and leisure leading into old age. But for others, the picture may be different. Some retirees will want to work and some retirees will have to work. Such decisions

will summon a host of personal finance and tax issues based on your personal situation – read heavily and consult qualified experts before you make a decision. What options will my employer offer over time? While the federal government is in the lead with phased retirement, most private employers are moving at a slower pace. This gives you time to plan. For example, in a 2013 benefits study, the Society for Human Resource Management noted that only 6 percent of employers had a formal phased retirement program that provided a reduced schedule and/or responsibilities prior to full retirement. Watch how your employer's plan evolves and ask questions. Phased or not, do you

have a retirement plan in place? The decision to make a full or transitional exit from one's employer should come after years of saving and investing both at home and at work. Years before deciding how you want to leave your career, talk to qualified retirement experts about your personal financial circumstances and what you want to do in the next phase of your life. If it's a new career, volunteer work or full retirement, develop a plan first. Have you talked to your senior colleagues? There's nothing like direct advice from individuals closer to retirement to help you with your own set of pros and cons. Even if there's no phased retirement program at your organization right now, it's still worth talking about retirement preparation with senior colleagues willing to share what they're doing. Also, start your own retirement planning in earnest with qualified retire-

ment and tax experts. How will phased retirement affect your overall benefits? If you're working at a lower salary level at the end of your career, ask how that might affect your future retirement benefits. Make a list of all the benefits and perks you now receive as a current full-time employee and investigate how every single one could be affected by phased retirement. And if you leave the company permanently before qualifying for Medicare, know how you'll pay for health insurance. This is a particularly important issue to discuss with a qualified financial or tax advisor. Bottom line: Phased retirement can offer the opportunity to adjust to fulltime retirement or set up a new career once you finally leave your current employer. However, before you leap, fully investigate how such a transition will affect your overall finances and future retirement benefits.

Special: Black History Month

Twelve Black heroes who usually go unrecognized during Black History Month, but shouldn’t (part 2 of 2) (Continued from 2/11/16 issue) This week we continue our look at our unsung Black heroes with an African singer and activist; two icons of the black nationalism movement; three prison protesters, wrongly accused of murder; a WWII hero; and a black transwoman, who help start the key event that lead to the start of the LGBT rights movement.

Miriam Makeba (March 4, 1932 – Nov. 9, 2008) Miriam Makeba or “Mama Africa,” was a South African singer and civil rights activist, known for denouncing apartheid on the world stage

and campaigning abroad for the end of the oppressive policy. As a result of her activism, her South African passport was revoked in 1960 by the apartheid regime, and they banned her from returning to her country in 1963. However, the world came to Makeba’s aid and Guinea, Belgium and Ghana issued her international passports. She received passports from six other countries in her lifetime, and was granted honorary citizenship in 10 countries. Despite the success that made her a star, she refused to wear makeup or curl her hair for performances, proudly wearing what came to be known internationally as the “Afro-look.” Her fourth marriage to civil rights activist, Black Panther, and Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee leader Stokely Carmichael in 1968 caused controversy in the United States, and her record deals and tours were canceled. The couple then moved to Guinea, and as the apartheid system crumbled,

she returned to South Africa for the first time in 1990.

Martin Delany (May 6, 1812 – Jan. 24, 1885) Martin Robison Delany was an African American abolitionist, journalist, physician and writer. He was born free in Charles Town, WVA, (then part of Virginia, a slave state). Delany was an outspoken Black nationalist, arguably the first; and is considered by some to be the grandfather of Black nationalism. He was also one of the first three Blacks admitted to Harvard Medical School. Trained as an assistant and a physician, he treated patients during the cholera epidemics

of 1833 and 1854 in Pittsburgh, when many doctors and residents fled the city. Active in recruiting Blacks for the United States Colored Troops, he was commissioned as a major, the first African American field officer in the United States Army during the American Civil War.

Henry McNeal Turner (Feb. 1, 1834 – May 8, 1915) Henry McNeal Turner was a minister, politician, and the first Southern bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Born free in South Carolina, he moved to Georgia after the American Civil War, where he pioneered in organizing new congregations for the independent Black denomination. Angered by the Democrats’ regaining power and instituting Jim Crow laws in the late 19th-century South, Turner began to support Black nationalism and the emigration of Blacks to Africa. He was the chief figure in the late 19th century to promote the movement, which expanded after World War I.

Soledad Brothers The Soledad Brothers were three African American prison inmates: George Jackson, co-founder of the Black Guerilla Family, and Fleeta Drumgo and John Clutchette. The three were falsely accused of beating a white prison guard and throwing him from a third-floor tier to his death at California’s Soledad Prison on Jan. 16, 1970. The murder occurred just a few days after another white guard shot and killed three Black inmates by firing from a tower into the courtyard during a racial fist fight. The Soledad Brothers had recently led a hunger strike to combat the abusive, inhumane practices that led to the death of several Black inmates, when they were indicted for the murder. www.milwaukeetimesnews.com

Opie G. Miller, the guard who shot the three Black inmates, was exonerated in a secret trial where none of the Black inmates who witnessed the shootings were permitted to testify. Less than a year later and just three days before the opening of his trial, George Jackson was shot to death by a tower guard inside San Quentin Prison in an alleged escape attempt. Some people called it an assassination and “No Black person,” wrote James Baldwin, “will ever believe that George Jackson died the way they tell us he did.” The two surviving Soledad Brothers, Clutchette and Drumgo, were acquitted by a San Francisco jury.

Marsha P. Johnson (August 24, 1945 – July 6, 1992) Marsha P. Johnson was an African American transgender activist and a popular figure in New York City's gay and art scene from the 1960s to the 1990s. One of the city's oldest and best known drag queens, Johnson participated in clashes with the police amid the Stonewall Riots and is credited with throwing the first stone that started the LGBT movement. She was a co-founder, along with Sylvia Rivera, of Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (S.T.A.R.) in the early 1970s. She also was the "mother" of S.T.A.R. House along with Sylvia, getting together food and clothing to help support the young queens living in the house on the lower East Side of New York. Once, appearing in a court the judge asked Marsha, "What does the 'P' stand for?", Johnson gave her customary response "Pay it No Mind." This phrase became her trademark. In 1974 Marsha P. Johnson was photographed by famed artist Andy Warhol, as part of a "ladies and gentlemen" series of polaroids featuring drag queens. In July 1992, Johnson's body was found floating in the Hudson River off the West Village Piers shortly after the 1992 Pride March. Police ruled the death a suicide. Johnson friends and supporters said she was not suicidal, and a people's postering campaign later declared that Johnson had earlier been harassed near (Continued on pg. 17)

Thursday February 25: James Cameron was born in 1914. In 1988 with the assistance of philanthropist, Daniel Bader, he founded America’s Black Holocaust Museum, a not-for-profit devoted to preserving the history of lynching in the United States and the struggle to eradicate it. Located in a twelve thousand square-foot gym purchased for one dollar from the City of Milwaukee, the museum contains artifacts from slavery, stereotypes, lynching postcards and photographs. At the age of 16, on the night of August 7, 1930, Cameron’s friends Abe Smith, 19 and Tommy Shipp, 18 tried to hold up a white couple at “Lovers Lane.” The Grant County Sheriff arrested Cameron charging him and his friends with murder. The Ku Klux Klan stormed the jail and tried to lynch Cameron and his friends. Cameron passed out. His two friends were lynched and Cameron’s life was spared. Although Madame C.J. Walker sent him two NAACP lawyers from Indianapolis, Cameron was convicted in his 1931 trial as an accessory. Paroled in 1935, Cameron moved to Detroit, Michigan where he worked for Stroh’s Brewing Company and attended Wayne State University. Also during this time in Madison, he founded the local branch of the NAACP and founded two more chapters in Muncie and South Bend, Indiana. In 1983, Cameron mortgaged his house in order to publish his memoir, A Time of Terror. In 1991, Cameron was officially pardoned by the State of Indiana. James Cameron died on June 13, 2006. Friday February 26: James Edward O’Hara was born on this date in 1844. He was a black politician, representing North Carolina’s forty-eighth and forty-ninth congresses. The son of an Irish merchant, O’Hara was born in New York City and attended public schools there. In 1862 he moved to North Carolina with a group of missionaries and began studying law. In June of 1871 O’Hara was admitted to the North Carolina Bar, starting practice in Enfield and Halifax County. He also served as a secretary for the Freedmen’s Bureau. He was the only African American in the legislature until 1884. When the House considered a bill to regulate interstate commerce, O’Hara added an amendment requiring equal accommodations for all travelers on railroad passenger cars regardless of color. He maintained that if Congress could set standards for the treatment of animals transported by rail, it could also take steps to assure equal treatment of citizens who rode the railroads. However, the Interstate Commerce Act, passed by Congress in 1887, fell short of what O’Hara had expected. Saturday February 27: Brown University pledged to raise $10 million in 2007 to remedy its role in benefiting from American slavery of Africans. The money is directed to local public schools and gives free tuition to graduate students who pledge to work there in response to a report that found slave labor played a role in the university’s beginnings. The university will also explore creating an academic center on slavery and justice, strengthen its Africana Studies Department, begin planning for a slavery memorial and revise its official history to provide a more accurate account of the school’s early years. Sunday February 28: An exodus from slavery after Reconstruction began in earnest in 1879 when more than 900 black families from Mississippi reached St. Louis, en route to Kansas, the North and the West. Some black migrants sought “conductors” to make travel arrangements for them. These conductors (most of them white scallywags) would often ask for money in advance and not show up at the appointed departure time, leaving migrants stranded at docks and train stations. During this migration yellow fever ravaged many river towns in Missouri, Mississippi, and Louisiana. Because many of the black migrants who stopped over in these towns coming by steamboat, train, or horseback were sick, unwashed, and poverty-stricken, it was assumed by city officials that they must be potential disease carriers. This caused great alarm in such cities as St. Louis, which imposed unnecessary quarantine measures to discourage future migrants. Monday February 29: The Kerner Report was made public in 1968. The Civil Rights struggle of the 1960’s was making inroads, integration of southern school districts was progressing and by 1967, 22 percent of the black students in the 17 southern and Border States were in integrated schools. Riots, discrimination, and increased violence from whites remained part of the American fabric. The continuing separation of blacks and whites in most areas was emphasized in the report when the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders (the Kerner Commission) issued a report that said, “our nation is moving toward two societies, one black, one white separate and unequal.” Tuesday March 1: African American entertainer Ruby Dandridge was born in 1899. She is best known for her role on the radio show “Amos ‘n Andy,” in which she played Sadie Blake and Harriet Crawford. She also had a role in the 1959 movie “A Hole in the Head,” in which she played Sally. She died of a heart attack at the age of 88 in Los Angeles and is buried next to her daughter, Dorothy, at Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, CA. Wednesday March 2: On this date in 1962, Wilt Chamberlain set a National Basketball Association (NBA) scoring record of 100 points. In the game, the Philadelphia Warriors defeated the New York Knickerbockers, 169-147. The game was played in Hershey, Pennsylvania, and the combined score was an association record too. Chamberlain toppled many records with his awesome display. The 7-foot-1-inch Warrior center set a league record for field goals (36), free throws (28 of 32), most points for a quarter (31), and most points for a half (59). www.milwaukeetimesnews.com

For his actions he was the first African American to be awarded the Navy Cross, the third highest honor awarded by the U.S. Navy at the time, after the Medal of Honor and the Navy Distinguished Service Medal. The Navy Cross now precedes the Navy Distinguished Service Medal. Miller's acts were heavily publicized in the black press, making him the iconic emblem of the war for blacks—their "Number One Hero"—thereby energizing black support for the war effort against a colored Japanese enemy. Nearly two years after Pearl Harbor, he was killed in action when USS Liscome Bay was sunk by a Japanese submarine during the Battle of Makin.

Bible Scripture for the week from The Book of Psalms A psalm of David The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world. God has made a home in the heavens for the sun. It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding. It rejoices like a great athlete eager to run the race. The sun rises at one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat. The instructions of the Lord are perfect, reviving the soul. The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The commandments of the Lord are right, bringing joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are clear, giving insight for living. Reverence for the Lord is pure, lasting forever. The laws of the Lord are true; each one is fair. They are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb. They are a warning to your servant, a great reward for those who obey them. How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart? Cleanse me from these hidden faults. Keep your servant from deliberate sins! Don’t let them control me. Then I will be free of guilt and innocent of great sin. May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:A Psalm for David Holy Bible, www.milwaukeetimesnews.com
