St. Louis activist to address MICAH faithful St. Louis civic leader, minister and activist, Rev. Starsky D. Wilson will be the keynote speaker when the Milwaukee Innercity Congregations Allied for Hope (MICAH) holds its annual gala May 21 at the Italian Community Center.

“Racial Justice through Inclusion” is the theme for the event. MICAH will honor Karyn Rotker, Sr. Staff Attorney of the ACLU of Wisconsin; and Attorney Dennis Grzezinski with their "To Do What is Just Award" for their outstanding service representing MICAH and the Black Coalition of Wisconsin and winning $1.3 from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for new bus routes to connect inner city residents to jobs in the suburbs.

In 2014, Missouri Governor Jay Nixon appointed Rev. Wilson co-chair of the Ferguson Commission to study the underlying conditions and make policy recommendations to help the region progress through issues exposed by the tragic death of Michael Brown, Jr. Wilson is pastor of Saint John’s Church (The Beloved Community) in St. Louis. He is also president and chief operating office of Deaconess Foundation, a faithbased, grant-making organization devoted to making child well-being a civic priority in the St. Louis region.

Wilson earned a bachelor of arts degree in political science from Xavier University of Louisiana, master of divinity from Eden Theological Seminary, and is pursuing a doctor of ministry degree at Duke Divinity School.

He is the winner of numerous awards, including the St. Louis Business Journal “40 Under 40” and the Urban League Young Professionals

Rev. Starsky D. Wilson Civic Engagement and Social Justice Award.

"Rev. Wilson is a man of faith and principles who has tremendous insight into many of the issues that affect creating a more just society for all people,” said the Rev. Willie Brisco, MICAH president. “We are excited to bring to Milwaukee this African American leader from a community angry and frustrated in the wake of the white police officer killing an unarmed black man. We face the same issues in here and must unite and learn from each other. I am looking forward to hearing about Rev. Wilson’s experiences in the struggle for justice and how he sees us moving forward as a nation in stemming the blight of racism, injustice and inequality.”

“We are looking forward to an engaging, informative, and uplifting event,” said Catoya Roberts, MICAH executive director and lead organizer.

“We invite the public to join us and welcome the support of our many friends.”

Tickets for the evening Gala, which will begin at 7 p.m. Thursday, May 21, are $50 and can be purchased by calling MICAH at 414-2640805.

Ben E. King, 'Stand By Me' singer, Drifters frontman, dies at 76 Ben E. King, the unforgettable lead singer for the Drifters and solo star whose plaintive baritone graced such pop and rhythm 'n blues classics as "Stand by Me," ''There Goes My Baby" and "Spanish Harlem," has died. He was 76.

King died Thursday, April 30, 2015 of natural causes, his publicist Phil Brown told The Associated Press on Friday. His attorney, Judy Tint, said he died at The Hackensack University Medical Center in Hackensack, NJ, near his longtime residence in Teaneck.

A native of North Carolina who moved to New York City as a boy, King was singing with the Five Crowns when they were hired in 1958 to become the new incarnation of the Drifters, a top act for Atlantic Records who had several doo-wop hits featuring tenor Clyde McPhatter.

The new Drifters, their records among the first in the rock era to use strings, had a more polished production and vocal style and became key influences on recordings

by Phil Spector and others in the 1960s.

King co-wrote and sang lead on "There Goes My Baby," and he and the Drifters followed with such favorites as "Save the Last Dance for Me" and "This Magic Moment," romantic and emotional ballads mostly written by the team of Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman.

Known for his warm smile and trim mustache, King didn't stay long. He left the Drifters in the early '60s because of a dispute over salary and royalties, but quickly found success on his own. He broke through with "Spanish Harlem," co-written by Spector and Jerry Leiber, and sealed his name in music history with "Stand by Me." A reworked gospel number cowritten by King, Leiber and Mike Stoller, "Stand by Me" was a soaring declaration of dependence and devotion, chosen as one of the Songs of the Century by the Recording Industry Association of America and added earlier this year to the Library of Congress' National Recording Registry.

John Lennon covered it in the 1970s and "Stand by Me" found new listeners in the '80s when it was featured in the Rob Reiner movie of the same name. The song returned to the charts and King appeared in a promotional music video along with cast members River Phoenix and Wil Wheaton.

"Of course, the kids who had never heard of a person called Ben E. King were then aware of the name associated with the song," King told www.classicbands.com in 1993. "That gave a tremen-

Ben E. King dous lift to me as an artist."

Like many early rock performers, King had seen his career fade when the Beatles and other British acts arrived in the mid-1960s. He did manage a hit during the disco era in the '70s with "Supernatural Thing" and continued to record and tour, including with an '80s edition of the Drifters. According to Billboard, he had 21 songs in the top 100 between 1961 and 1975. King and assorted other Drifters were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988.

He is survived by his wife, Betty; three children and six grandchildren, according to Brown. Darlene Love, Smokey Robinson and Stoller were among those offering tributes Friday, with Stoller telling the AP that King's "beautiful styling" overwhelmed him from the

time they met more than 50 years ago.

Ben E. King was a stage name. He was born Benjamin Earl Nelson in Henderson, NC, and moved to Harlem at age 9, giving him early exposure to both country and urban music. He sang in church and joined local street corner groups in Harlem, although admittedly as much to impress girls as for the music. By age 20, he and some friends had formed the Five Crowns, who shared a bill at the Apollo Theater with a previous version of the Drifters and were noticed by manager George Treadwell when he needed to recruit new singers for a group that changed personnel often.

Nikiya Harris Dodd individuals committed nonviolent crimes and yet are locked up for years at a time, without any hope of release,” stated Senator Harris Dodd.

“That is why I am introducing this important bill, which will help curb some of the injustices in our criminal justice system. We should be ensuring that we are rehabilitating offenders who are nonviolent, rather than needlessly locking them behind bars.”

If passed, Wisconsin would be the fourth state to require racial impact statements in criminal lawmaking. In response to growing racial disparities in incarceration, Iowa, Connecticut, and Oregon have all passed laws that require the use of racial impact statements. Several states, including Mississippi and Maryland, have considered doing the same.

Rebuilding Our Community To most of us “baby boomers” (1946-1964), this is nothing new: community uprisings, civic unrest, looting, riots, burnings, marching, shootings, injustice, militarization of law enforcement, poor housing, lack of quality health care and unsafe neighborhoods. But to a new generation in the 21st century, this is a wakeup call as they try to push forward a new agenda and a new future for America. As some in the millennial generation (19802000) are finding out, it’s going take some tough calls, rough roads and will require a new mindset to effectively deal with what is happening.

At the heart of what is so wrong in America these days is the fact that finding a livable wage job for African American men in particular and most people of color in general is hard. During the old days during the mid-1900

When work disappears

through the 1980s, there were countless jobs available in manufacturing, construction and support industries located in cities. In fact you could just finish high school and literally walk across the street and begin working in a blue-collar job the next day.

Today, that is not the case due to outsourcing, business closures, consultation and relocation of core industries to the suburbs and overseas.

Over the past few decades these business transitions and more left thousands of people living in urban America out of meaningful work and with no other means in which to survive. In addition, even if you had the skills to work in the new factories built in the suburbs, getting to work also was a challenge.

William Julius Wilson, a noted sociologist and faculty member at the University of Chicago, wrote a book

entitled, “When Work Disappears: The World the New Urban Poor” in 1997. In his research and writings he highlights the devastating effects that the disappearance of work has on individual, family and neighborhood life in the urban ghettos. The loss of these blue-collar jobs from urban America affected how things unfolded and soon became one of the leading underlining root causes to urban problems. As he sees it, this unique isolation, concentrated unemployment

was further hindered due to a lack of local available training and education. In addition, he examines the attitudes of employers toward residents from the inner city, regardless of their skills and talent and its effects on hiring policies. He also dismantles the conservative argument that the people of the ghettos lack drive and aspiration, but on the contrary found out that those living in the ghettos or urban centers had the same desire for a success and a stable life as anyone else.

More remarkably, this upcoming new generation of leaders is finding out that in order to turn things around in urban America, there must be livable wage employment.

This employment must be both available and accessible.

While many of the jobs from a generation ago have disappears from urban America, the majority of the people

and their descendants are still there. It is my hope that these new leaders not only see the need for meaningful employment in urban American, but also do something about it. What do you think?

The best is in Wisconsin

The world had to take notice of Wisconsin for a day.

Well not the entire state, just a small portion called Kenosha. The 2015 NFL Draft concluded on May 2nd. The exciting part of any sports draft is the first round. It is the first round where many superstars are drafted.

Names such as Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers were picked in this round.

Well Kenosha, WI population of around 100,000 sent two players to the NFL in the first round.

Trae Waynes and Melvin Gordon III are from Kenosha and both were drafted in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft. Waynes and Gordon played for Mary D. Bradford High School before attending Michigan State and Wisconsin respectively. Both players were rated very high before the draft because of outstanding college careers.

Waynes will be playing for the Minnesota Vikings this fall and Gordon for the San Diego Chargers.

Waynes was listed as the top cornerback prospect in the draft to some analysts.

Waynes has the size and speed NFL teams covet at this position. With the 11th pick of the draft the Vikings chose the former Kenosha native. Waynes was the first cornerback taken in the draft.

Waynes will likely be starting week one when the season kicks off in September.

Waynes joins a Viking team that is young and headed in

th Year

Church Anniversary the right direction.

Gordon was picked four picks after Waynes. Gordon was the second running back taken in the draft; Todd Gurley went 10th. This is not a knock on Gordon because in 2014 no running back was taken in the 1st round of the draft. Gordon was drafted number 15 by the San Diego Chargers. Gordon’s skillset and amazing numbers at Wisconsin were factors that have him in play to also start week one. Gordon walks into a team with a solid, if not elite, quarterback in Phillip Rivers.

This is sure to make Gordon’s transition into the NFL easy and successful.

The negative images and press African American males have been getting around the country makes this story more impressive.

Many people think living in small cities is easier than big ones. That is far from the truth. Because there are limited opportunities in small cities like Kenosha, trouble

is easy to find. Waynes and Gordon used sports to give themselves a chance at living a different life.

Waynes and Gordon are already a success story no matter how their pro careers pan out. If Waynes and Gordon dominate the NFL, great. If they flop and don’t become stars, fine also. The point is these two young men used the system to give themselves a chance. Many people say that sports have ruined African Americans. This is truer than many realize. But it is what it is; so let’s use what we have.

For a shining few days the spotlight on African American males in Wisconsin was positive.

Kenosha’s best running back and cornerback have entered the next stage of their careers. Waynes and Gordon have put Kenosha back on the map, at least for a week or so. It seems that, at least in two cases, the system may just work.

Education

MPS: Op Ed.

Michael Bonds, Ph.D. President Milwaukee Public School Board of Governance

Continued expansion of MPS’ community outreach efforts With more than 77,000 students and more than 9,000 employees, Milwaukee Public Schools has a significant impact on the Milwaukee community. While most people recognize the important role we play in getting the next generation of citizens and workers prepared for success, our influence actually runs much deeper.

Milwaukee Public Schools has created several ways to support students and families beyond the classroom and the school day. We’re proud of these efforts to expand our community outreach and to create additional opportunities for our students to gain important experiences in our neighborhoods and in our city.

This summer, MPS will provide $60,000 to support the City of Milwaukee’s Earn

and Learn program. Earn and Learn provides employment opportunities in the city for high school students and young adults, exposing them to the working world and improving workforce preparedness.

Young people have the opportunity to work in local nonprofits and community organizations; in City of Milwaukee departments to learn about local government; or to work for local companies in the private sector. Some positions are still available, but students should apply quickly. Please visit the Earn and Learn website at http:// city.milwaukee.gov/EarnLearn for more details and learn how to apply.

Unfortunately, summer can also be a dangerous time in some Milwaukee neighborhoods. Last summer, we lost

three students to violence.

This year, Milwaukee Public Schools has a Summer Violence Prevention Initiative.

Approved by the Milwaukee Board of School Directors, this program will offer mini grants to area organizations promoting positive programs for youth during the summer months.

Additional details, including how organizations can apply to receive the grants, will be made available within the next few weeks.

MPS also proudly works with partners throughout the school year who support our students. Last year, I instituted the Community Partnerships program, which the Board has agreed to fund for the past two years. The partnership program is designed to provide resources for those organizations that

provide support to MPS students. We’ve been able to support more than 40 organizations supporting our youth, including: • Holton Youth and Family Center • Milwaukee Debate Club • America Scores • City Kids Wrestling Club • COA • Neu-Life • Pathways to College • Summit Educational Program • United Community Center •Urban Ecology Center Funding for the Community Partnerships program is included in the proposed 2015-16 MPS budget and I hope my colleagues on the Milwaukee Board of School Directors will join me in supporting this important effort that enhances opportunities for students and strengthens

our community organizations.

The proposed 2015-16 budget is in the process of being reviewed by the Milwaukee Board of School Directors. The full budget can be found at this link on the MPS website – mpsmke. com/budget - along with the Budget Companion and Budget in Brief, two summaries of the overall budget.

The Board will hold public hearings on the budget on May 5, May 12 and May 14.

The Board is scheduled to approve the budget on May 28. All meetings will be at 6:30 p.m. at the MPS Central Services building, 5225 W. Vliet Street.

Dr. Driver helps kick off Teacher Appreciation Week in MPS As Milwaukee Public Schools marked the start of Teacher Appreciation Week, Superintendent Dr. Darienne Driver visited Craig Montessori School Monday, May 4, 2015 to deliver her message of appreciation in person.

Dr. Driver, who began her career as an elementary school teacher, spoke with staff at their regular meeting before the school day started. She also visited classrooms and encouraged students to thank the educators who make a difference in their lives.

The event was one of a number of

Teacher Appreciation Week events around the district, including video and email messages from Dr. Driver for all schools, certificates of appreciation for every teacher and digital billboards courtesy of Lamar Advertising and Clear Channel.

Activities at the school level include sharing area discounts and promotions that MPS has arranged with local retailers and cultural organizations; "Thank A Teacher" signs to be shared for use by students and families; and Tumblr postings by students and families.

Celebrating MPS school nurses

Milwaukee Public Schools recognizes our school nurses by celebrating National School Nurse Day on Wednesday, May 6. We are grateful for the teachers, administrators, and professional support staff with whom we work each day – who assist in creating a healthy learning environment for every child in MPS. The theme from the National Association of School Nurses (NASN) this year is "School Nurses: Caring for Others, Caring for Ourselves."

As part of its strategic objectives process, MPS identified eight big ideas to improve student success.

One of these ideas is "Educating the whole child." A child who enters school healthy and feels safe is ready to learn. A student who feels connected to school is more likely to stay in school. All students who have access to challenging and engaging academic programs and support services are better prepared for further education, work, and civic life.

MPS recognizes this link between healthy students and improved teaching and learning capacity in classrooms. MPS school nurses

believe that all students are able to learn and that their learning is best supported by reducing barriers related to health to meet our student’s needs. The school nurses roles and responsibilities include their ability to: • Create a healthy climate for learning within school communities • Meet the students' wellness needs through nutrition, wellness promotion, physical development, healthy decision making and improved functional capacity for each learner • Increase overall student attendance through coordinated interventions and community partnerships MPS nurses provide services in approximately 120 MPS schools.

Health & Fitness

Diabetes and pregnancy: How to lower your risks of complications If you’re a woman and you’re a diabetic, then you’ve probably heard at some point that if you should decide to become pregnant, it would be considered high risk. While that’s true, motherhood isn’t completely out of the question. Of course, there are several precautions you’ll need to take to ensure a safe and healthy pregnancy and delivery as there are many risks and complications that can occur, such as birth defects, premature birth, a miscarriage,and preeclampsia. One the best ways to prevent any of these complications is by keeping your blood glucose levels under control before, during and after your pregnancy.

“There are significant hormonal changes involved when a woman becomes pregnant – one result is an increase in blood sugar,” explains Dr. Mark Carter, who practices internal medicine in Phoenix, Arizona.

“So, when a woman with diabetes becomes pregnant, they’re at increased risk of having uncontrolled blood sugar. When you’re pregnant and your blood sugar is not controlled, you’re at a much higher risk of developing complications both for you and the baby.”

When trying to become

pregnant, it’s all about planning ahead, whether you have diabetes or not. Before trying to conceive, you should be making regular visits to the doctor to discuss any questions and/or concerns you may have, such as stopping any medications, taking prenatal vitamins, as well as establishing a healthy meal plan and how much weight is appropriate to gain.

“Your diet should consist largely of what you were eating before you were pregnant. You will often need more calories for the baby, but while you are eating for two, you shouldn’t double your calories,” Dr. Carter says. “Healthy food choices include lean chicken and fish, low-glycemic carbohydrates, such as brown rice and sweet potatoes, and plenty of vegetables. There are a few things you want to avoid while being pregnant, i.e., sushi, raw

oysters, and under-cooked meat.”

In addition to maintaining a healthy diet, it’s important to remain or start becoming physically active, squeezing in at least 30 minutes of exercise a day for three to four days per week.

“Moderate exercise is encouraged … In general, you want to do low-impact exercises, such as yoga, walking, swimming and step-ups,” Dr. Carter says. “In the first trimester, you want to go for moderate activity. In the last trimester, you may find that those same exercises cause you to become short of breath and seem more difficult. That’s because as the uterus grows, it starts to affect how much your diaphragm moves.”

Your health care team should include a doctor and nurse who specialize in diabetes along with a registered

dietician. If you take medication for high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or any other conditions, you’ll be advised to stop taking them.

Furthermore, if you take insulin to control your blood glucose levels, you may be required to switch brands or adjust the dosage.

"There some classes of medications you shouldn’t take when you’re pregnant,” Dr. Carter says. “Some medications can cause birth defects, such as certain cholesterol medications like statins, ACE-inhibitors used for blood pressure control and blood thinners like Coumadin. Even care with herbals is important. For example, red yeast rice acts a lot like statins and should be avoided as well.”

Like most new mothers, you should be able to breastfeed your baby, but as a result, you may need to increase your caloric intake and lower your insulin for several days.

Additionally, you’ll be at a higher risk of low blood glucose levels if you’re breastfeeding. Your doctor and dietician will sit down with you and recommend what, when and how often you should be eating on a daily basis.

Being in control of your life and having realistic expectations about your day-today challenges are the keys to stress management, which is perhaps the most important ingredient to living a happy, healthy and rewarding life.

Black Health Coalition hosts 12th Annual African American Walk for Quality Health On Saturday, June 6, 2015, the Black Health Coalition of Wisconsin will host their 12th Annual Walk for Quality Health. This year's theme is "Men & Boys of Color Health." The route starts at 435 W. North Ave. (Milwaukee Urban League), ends at 2620 West Center Street (Wisconsin Black Historical Society), and will began at 10:00 a.m.

The primary purpose of this walk is to garner citywide support for the Wisconsin African American Eliminating Health Disparities Institute. This Institute was established by the Black Health Coalition of Wisconsin, which has a longstanding, proven history of improving the health status of African Americans in the state of Wisconsin. The Institute will focus on the elimination of health disparities for African American in Wisconsin through data warehousing, research and policy development. This Institute will also allow the African American community to have control regarding development, analysis,

and dissemination of health information, and will ensure that the overall well-being is improved.

Another very important reason for the walk is to engage the community in a healthy meaningful activity. The promotion of good health is key to the reduction of health disparities.

This walk will go a long way in sending the message that African Americans do care about their health.

Registration for this event is available now at http:// www.bhcw.org or the morning of the event starting at 9:00 a.m. Individual registration Cost is $10.00 and team registration cost is $35.00 (Max. 10 people per team).

financial planning. CPAs are licensed by the state after meeting education and experience requirements.

Financial planners generally take a broad view of your financial affairs. The most comprehensive financial planners assess every aspect of your financial life, including managing your investments. The financial planning profession doesn’t have its own regulator, but planners may be regulated based on the services they offer. For example, the SEC would regulate a financial planner who is also an investment advisor.

Certified Financial Planners (CFPs) earn this special designation by meeting educational requirements and passing a comprehensive certification exam. These professionals are held to a code of ethics that, among other things, puts their clients’ interests above their own. As with financial planners, CFPs take a broad view of your financial situation, and are regulated based on the services they offer.

How they get paid Financial professionals receive compensation in a variety of ways. Before you hire anyone, make sure you understand how that person gets paid. A financial professional may: ● Charge a percentage of the value of the assets they manage for you (for example, 1 percent) ● Charge an hourly fee for the time they spend working for you ● Earn a commission (a fee for selling a certain product) ● Draw a salary ● Some combination of these Each method has potential benefits and possible drawbacks, depending on your needs. For example, someone who makes money solely on commission for selling products may not have your best interests in mind.

Spring is a great time to get your finances in order.

You may want to review your 401(k) statement to see if you’re on the right track with your investments and contributions, think through ways to spend down credit card debt, or even figure out how to finance a short term goal, like buying a car.

A lot of people go the “do it yourself ” route when it comes to financial planning.

There is no right or wrong way, so decide what works best for you and go for it. If you choose to manage your finances on your own, AARP has helpful online information, tips and resources for you. Start today at www.aarp. org/money.

Types of financial professionals You’ll come across dozens of designations for financial planning professionals. Be aware that some designations are no more than a series of words that sound good together. For example, some people in the field of finance put themselves out there as specialists for seniors. Many don’t have any formal training or certification as senior specialists, so you can’t rely on the title.

To look up a designation and find out it meaning, check the Professional Designations Tool at www.finra. org/investors. FINRA is the securities industry self-regulating body.

Here are the basics about some of the “standard” financial professionals you’ll come across: Investment advisers generally provide investment advice to their clients and manage their investments.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) typically regulates investment advisers, as do state securities regulators.

Brokers traditionally buy and sell securities, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds and the like for their clients.

The SEC and state regulate brokers, and they must be members of FINRA. Insurance agents can help you with your insurance needs, such as life, property and long-term care insurance. “Captive” insurance agents sell the products of only one company, while independent agents can offer products from many companies. State insurance commissions regulate insurance agents.

Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) can offer a variety of accounting services such as tax preparation and

the state, SEC or FINRA? If so, in what capacity?

4. What relevant professional designations do you hold?

5. How long have you been with your current firm?

Where did you work before?

6. What investment products and services do you (or don’t you) recommend to your clients? Why? 7. How much will I have to pay for your services? What is your usual hourly rate, flat fee or commission?

8. Do you or your firm impose any minimum account balances? If so, what are they? And what happens if my holdings fall below the minimum?

9. How frequently will we meet to discuss my portfolio and the progress we are making toward my investment goals?

10. Who else in your office will handle my account? *Adapted from www.finra.org/ investors After the interviews, compare the answers you received. Think about each professional’s approach. Did she discuss financial issues using language you could understand? Do you think she

“It’s a privilege to share this amazing celebration of uplifting music that can motivate our local community

and at the same time support our local Ronald McDonald House, a place that offers families a 'home-away-fromhome' so they can stay close by their hospitalized child,” said Pastor Pyles.

“McDonald’s is committed to sharing lovin’ and giving back in Southeastern Wisconsin. We are fortunate that Milwaukee is part of this national tour, featuring some of gospel music’s biggest national acts.”

McDonald’s Inspiration Celebration Gospel Tour is coming to Milwaukee for a free night of joyful song performed by some of the biggest names in modern gospel music.

Our History

African American mothers changing the course of American history

Written by: Lynda Jackson Conyers

Baltimore Mom Latoya Graham

Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake

Brig. Gen. Linda Singh

This weekend as we prepare to celebrate mothers, motherhood and maternal bonds for their positive contributions to society, remember the purpose for this national holiday.

In 1868, Ann Jarvis, mother of Anna Jarvis, created a committee to establish a Mother’s Friendship Day. The purpose was to reunite families that had been divided during the Civil War. Jarvis had previously organized “Mother’s Day Work Clubs” to improve sanitation and health for both Union and Confederate encampments undergoing a typhoid outbreak. Jarvis died in 1905 before the celebration became popular. Due to the campaign efforts of Jarvis’ daughter, Anna, several states officially recognized Mother’s Day in 1910. In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson signed the proclamation creating Mother’s Day, the second Sunday in May, as a national holiday to honor mothers.

This year’s Mother ‘s Day observance will serve a significant moment in American history, as five powerful African American women attempt to bring peace to a major urban city faced with civil unrest – Baltimore.

These women will have the responsibility to change the course of American history through their public service for the good of the American people.

On April 19, 2015, a young man named Freddie Gray died after being in the custody of the Baltimore police department. Gray’s death ignited major civil unrest. Gray died from spinal injuries that occurred during his 45 minute ride in the back of a police van. Six officers were charged in connection with his death.

As people poured onto

the streets of Baltimore to protest Gray’ death, chaos and rioting descended. Residents clashed with police in the streets. Some of the rioters started to loot businesses. The mother of one of the protesters saw him on TV engaging in an unlawful activity. Latoya Graham became a social media sensation after she was caught on video snatching her son, Michael Singleton, off the street. Ms. Graham, a black mother, smacked him upside his head. Tough love is what it’s called today. This mom was determined to protect her only son from becoming a member of the criminal system or dead. Another black woman entered the spotlight of Baltimore history, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake.

In January 2010, Ms. Rawlings-Blake became the mayor after then - Mayor Shelia Dixon resigned and was later convicted of embezzlement.

City Council President Rawlings-Blake ascended to the mayor’s post for the balance of the term. In November 2013, Rawlings-Blake was elected to a full term receiving 84 percent of the votes. Rawlings-Blake is a black mother. During a press conference last week as protesters seized areas of the city destroying properties and assaulting citizens, Mayor Rawlings-Blake brought in her security force (the police) to stop the chaos along with the assistance of another black mother.

The next supermom to ascend on the scene was Major General Linda L. Singh of the Maryland National Guard. She is the 29th adjutant general of Maryland and the first African American and the first woman to hold the post. This sister is BADD. She earned a Bronze star and brings command experience from Kosovo and

Afghanistan. Singh moved her military team on to the streets of Baltimore and order was restored.

The next supermom is State’s Attorney for Baltimore, Marilyn Mosby. Five generations of her family served in law enforcement, and her grandfather was one of the first black police officers in Massachusetts. On May 1, 2015, Mosby became of prominence when she handed down charges to the six police officers involved in the death of Freddie Gray.

The last supermom to play a major role in addressing the civil unrest in Baltimore is the 83rd United States Attorney General Loretta Lynch. On November 8, 2014, President Barack Obama nominated her to succeed Eric Holder as Attorney General. On April 23, 2015, Lynch was confirmed by the Senate by a 5643 vote, making her the first African American woman and the second woman to be confirmed for the position.

Lynch is also a mom.

The moral message I see in the protests in Baltimore and other urban settings with the outbreak of violence which must not be overlooked. Politicians must address the concerns of the people. Urban communities are plagued with har-

State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby

U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch

rowing rates of unemployment, ill health, crime and incarceration. I am proud of these African American women who accepted the challenge to be public servants. My prayers are with each of them. I hope they allow their motherly intuition be their moral compass as they attempt to address the problems of our children and our communities.

There is no more powerful bond than a mother’s bond with her child. There is no more powerful love than a mother’s love for her child. It is a mother’s duty to look for early warning signs of danger and take her child out of harm’s way. A mother’s intuition is a gift from God. Each of these women discussed in the article are linked together by the intuition of motherhood. A mother’s love is strong, brave and powerful.

I salute these history makers because they look like ME and I AM A MOTHER. - Lynda

Meanwhile, heat oven to 350°F. Remove plastic wrap from rolls and bake 25–29 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan on wire rack while preparing glaze.

For glaze, melt butter in saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar and cream.

Cook over medium-high heat until mixture reaches a simmer; cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and salt. Whisk in confectioners’ sugar until smooth. Pour glaze over warm rolls. Serve warm.

FAMILY FEATURES

W

hether she’s your mom or a “like-a-mother” mentor, chances are you’ve got a lot to thank her for this Mother’s Day. It’s a time for celebrating your biggest supporters, number one fans and best friends.

In life, we’re lucky to form relationships with women we can learn from and grow with. Beth Somers, Elizabeth Nelson and Emily Tatak from the Wilton Test Kitchen consider themselves lucky.

Beth Somers, Director of Creative Content Development, owes her start to her former boss Milette Raz. Raz is trained in the Wilton Method of Cake DecoratingTM and taught Somers how to decorate. But Somers thinks of Raz as so much more — calling her a mentor, her second mother and her friend. Years after working together, the duo teamed up for Cupcake Wars on the Food Network, returning home as champions of season six with winning recipes like Tropical Getaway Cupcakes.

Elizabeth Nelson, Assistant Culinary Specialist, attributes her love of baking to her grandma Ann, learning the basics with her and picking up passed down recipes that she brought with her to college. She looks up to her mother, her grandmother and her great-grandmother, whom she’s told she also gets her competitive nature from.

Nelson and her grandmother went through a lot of trial and error together to come up with what they believe is the perfect cinnamon roll recipe, very similar to this recipe for Cinnamon Rolls with Caramel Glaze.

For Emily Tatak, preserving family recipes and continuing the traditions around the holidays and in the kitchen led to her career at Wilton as an Assistant Culinary Specialist. She owes her inspiration to her mom, who taught her how to bake. Together they iced cakes, decorated sugar cookies and even made a gingerbread house from scratch. Keeping with tradition, celebrating the holidays without grandma Irene’s Kolachy recipe just wouldn’t be the same.

Award-Winning Goodies

Celebrate that special mother figure in your life with this fruity and flavorful recipe for Tropical Getaway Cupcakes, created by Beth Somers and Milette Raz.

Grandma’s Kolachy Cookies

Servings: 6 1/2 dozen cookies 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon Wilton Pure Vanilla Extract 1/2 teaspoon salt Poppy seed, apricot and strawberry pastry filling Confectioners’ sugar, for dusting

In large bowl, beat cream cheese and butter with electric mixer on medium speed until well combined. Add flour, vanilla and salt; beat until just combined. Divide dough into 2 disks. Wrap with plastic wrap and chill at least 12 hours.

Heat oven to 375°F. Working with 1 disk at a time, roll each to 1/8-inch thickness on generously floured surface.

Cut cookies using 2-inch round cutter. Place on cookie sheet and make indentation in dough with thumb. Spoon 1/2 teaspoon pastry filling into each indentation.

Bake 16–18 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool cookies on pan on cooling grid 5 minutes. Remove from pan; cool completely on grid. Dust with confectioners’ sugar before serving.
