Noted local icon Lester Carter receives honorary doctoral degree By Steve Waring Special to the Milwaukee Times Lester Carter, Jr., long time noted pharmacist and local institution received an honorary doctoral degree at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) commencement ceremony on May 15. " 'Dr. Carter', as his customers refer to him, is a registered pharmacist, an innovator and trailblazer, and his commitment to his customers and the neighborhood has made him an iconic figure in Milwaukee’s Black community,” the college said in a brief biographical description published in a banquet program. “Carter Drugs was considered to be the only Black-owned drug store in the Milwaukee area for much of his career. He completed his pharmacist study and training at the Creighton University School of Pharmacy in Omaha.”
During his acceptance speech, Dr. Carter called on the graduating class to keep an open mind about herbal solutions, pointing out recent scientific evidence that diets high in certain dark green leafy vegetables can interact negatively with certain medications for high blood pressure. The honor comes after a year that would have left most people down for the count. As a young man growing up in Omaha, Dr. Carter learned to box and said the lessons he learned in the ring gave him the confidence to pursue audacious dreams. Dreams which include becoming one of the first African Americans serving in combat as a medic on a Navy troop-landing ship during the Korean War and becoming the first black pharmacist at “the rich pharmacy in Omaha” that served (Continued on pg. 12)

Mount Carmel Missionary Baptist Church, 1717 W. Meinecke Ave., hosted the Third Annual State Youth Rites of Passage Ceremony for the General Baptist State Convention of Wisconsin, Inc., on Friday, May 29, 2015 at 6:30 p.m. The Rites of Passage ceremony is a ritual that marks a young person’s progression from one status in life to another. The main objective of the Rites of Passage is for our youth, young ladies and men 16 to 19 years old, to strive to share their Christian values and beliefs and their entering adulthood with love and devotion to serve Christ and others as they travel on their Christian journey. Each Rites of Passage participant is asked to show an understanding of Romans 12:1-2: “I beseech you therefore, brethren by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” The 2015 Rites of Passage candidates pictured here (l – r) are: Deshondra Williams of Damascus Baptist Church; Quentin Halton and Jakaila Jordan from The Way of the Cross Baptist Church; Emoni Green and Dementria Davis from Mount Carmel Baptist Church. Rev. Eddie Nash of The Way of the Cross Baptist Church was the keynote speaker; Sister Talijah Williams is the State Youth President and Sister Lenora Brown is State Youth Director. Rev. Dr. Hugh Davis is pastor of Mt. Carmel Baptist Church.

Representatives Bowen and Brostoff introduce 'Heat and Eat Bill' At a joint press event with the Hunger Task Force of Wisconsin, Representatives David Bowen (D-Milwaukee) and Jonathan Brostoff (D-Milwaukee) announced June 4, 2015 that they were introducing a bill to restore Wisconsin’s heat and eat program and reverse the FoodShare cuts imposed on Wisconsin families by the 2014 Farm Bill. “The families that rely on FoodShare to get by are the ones being left behind by this economy,” said Rep. Bowen. “A family living in poverty can’t afford a $100 cut in their grocery budget. Restoring the Heat and Eat program would help get struggling families back on their feet,” he said. Heat and Eat is a state program that allows households receiving energy assistance through the federal Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) to qualify for additional FoodShare benefits. Wisconsin previously provided all families that did not otherwise
qualify for LIHEAP a benefit of $1, so that they could qualify for higher FoodShare benefits, but Congress increased the minimum qualifying LIHEAP benefit to $20, cutting FoodShare benefits for more than 250,000 families across Wisconsin. The bill offered by Reps. Bowen and Brostoff would increase the LIHEAP benefit to $21, restoring these families’ FoodShare benefits to their previous levels. Because the bill only reallocates federal money the state already receives, it would not require any additional state spending. Reallocating $5.4 million in LIHEAP money would bring an additional $276 million in FoodShare benefits from the federal government. “The Heat & Eat cuts unfairly target seniors and people with disabilities living in subsidized housing,” Sherrie Tussler, Executive Director of Hunger Task Force said. “These vulnerable populations need community support to restore their Food-

Youth Day observed at Mt. Pilgrim Baptist Church
By: Janiya Q. Carter Special to the Milwaukee Times At Mt. Pilgrim Missionary Baptist Church, Youth Sunday is celebrated every third Sunday; the most recent observance was on Sunday, May 17, 2015. All the young people of the church participate by singing in the choir, praise dancing, or being ushers. We are in charge of the service including devotion. This month the service opened with the choirs singing "Can You Hear Me Now" and for devotion we read chapter 12 verses 7-17. After devotion we had the junior praise dancers. The song they danced to was
"He Wants It All" by Forever Jones. The praise dancers did a great job considering some of them learned the dance in one day. We also have senior praise dancers who danced during the 8:00 service. Next was the Angel Choir which is the choir for kids 12 and under. The songs they sang were "Rock" and "Jesus Promised" by Mississippi Mass Choir. Some of the lyrics to rock are “Rock got a piece of the rock, Christ that solid rock.” The next choir was the CVH choir which is for teens and young adults. They sang "Grateful and Your My Prince of Peace" by Michael W. Smith. After that Min. Gloria Hammond preached. The scriptures for the message were Luke 19 verses 1-6. These verses tell the story of Zaccheaus who ran ahead of the crowd to try to see Jesus as He passed through. The point of the sermon from the verses was to help us see why we need Jesus. We need Him because He knows our past, He knows everything about us.

We also need Him because we all need friends, even if we don’t think we do. Jesus is a friend who loves no matter what. We also need Jesus because He holds our future. I also learned that we are like a vessel full of things that are bad but if we give everything to Jesus we would be emptied and he will be able to fill us up with good things and
use us. When Min. Hammond finished the sermon, the choir sang for invitation and six people, including four children, came to Christ. We then had announcements and acknowledged the visitors. The last things we do on Youth Sunday before we leave are have Pastor Jolly come up and say a few things
and then pray out. If you want to come to Mt. Pilgrim the address is 2700 W. Brown Street. Our Pastor is George H. Jolly. We have two services every Sunday of each month at 8:00 and 11:00 am. Except for the first Sunday, we have one service at 9:30 am. Mt. Pilgrim is a church where anybody is welcome.

The Counseling Corner By Rev. Judith T. Lester, B.Min. M.Th
The greatest joys of fatherhood (Part 2) According to the National Fatherhood Initiative, there is a crisis in America. The U.S. Census Bureau reports 24 million children in America—1 out of 3 — live without their biological dad in the home. There is a father absence crisis in America creating a “Father-Factor” in nearly all of the societal issues facing America today. Consequently, according to the National Fatherhood Initiative, there is an urgency to raise more involved, responsible, and committed fathers. Research shows the Father-Factor when a child grows up in a fatherabsent home: • Children in father-absent homes are almost 4 times more likely to be poor. In 2011, 12 percent of children in married-couple families were living in poverty, compared to 44 percent of children in mother-only families. • Youths in father-absent households had significantly higher odds of incarceration than those in mother-father families. Youths who never had a father in the household experienced the highest
tinuation, this writer asked fathers to answer the question: “What has been the greatest joys of fatherhood?” Here are two more responses received:
odds. • Being raised by a single mother raises the risk of teen pregnancy, marrying with less than a high school degree, and forming a marriage where both partners have less than a high school degree. Despite the troubling statistics, there are fathers who are doing the right thing by their children. There are fathers who are supporting their children emotionally, financially and by their physical presence. This month we celebrate fatherhood. In con-
Reflections on Fatherhood By: Min. Gregory Roberts When I realized I was going to be a father, I was overjoyed because the doctor had said I might not be able to have children. I used to love to feel the baby kick in the belly. I’m the proud father of 3 by natural birth and 2 by adoption. The greatest joy I must say is watching them develop into productive children in both the kingdom of God and in the community. I enjoy when my children come to me for advice or to simply listen to them when they have problems. Before my mother died she said she was proud of me because I was a good father even though I didn’t have a father figure in my own life. That was 15 years ago. Since then, I’ve seen one graduate from college and in the ministry;
another who loves his children; and another attending engineering school. The joy of fatherhood never stops. Every day there is something new. I thank God for blessing me with my children and Next Week: “I’m Proud for allowing me to be a fa- to be Called Daddy”! ther.

Watchful waiting may not be best for black men with prostate cancer They were more likely to develop aggressive disease sooner than white patients, study says Monitoring early stage prostate cancer instead of treating it may not be appropriate for all patients, especially black men, a new study indicates. According to background information with the study, there is currently controversy among oncologists over the best way to handle early stage prostate cancer, with some experts suggesting that regular monitoring -- known as watchful waiting -- of the disease is the best approach because it avoids overtreatment. But this new study suggests that watchful waiting may not be suitable for all men with early stage prostate cancer, especially black patients. “We know that African American men have more aggressive prostate cancer than Caucasian men,” Dr. Kosj Yamoah, chief resident in the department of radiation oncology at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, said in a university news release. “Our study shows that African American men who are
diagnosed with a low-grade cancer at first -- the cancers that are sometimes watched rather than treated -- are more likely to develop aggressive disease sooner than Caucasian men,” he said. The researchers analyzed the medical records of men who were confirmed to have low-grade prostate cancer and had surgery to remove part or all of their prostate. Among these patients, blacks were more likely to have cancer progression and worse outcomes than whites. Seven years after surgery, rates of disease control were 90 percent among whites and 79 percent among blacks, the study found.
Single moms report poorer health later in life Researchers recommend more access to birth control, programs that aid work-family balance Women who are single mothers before age 50 may be at increased risk for poor health later in life, according to a new study. Any period of single motherhood before age 50 was associated with a greater risk of poor health and physical disability years later. The link was strongest among single mothers in the United States, England, Denmark and Sweden. Overall, the highest risk of poor health and disability was among women who became single mothers before age 20, became single mothers due to divorce, parented alone for eight or more years, or had two or more children, the study found. “The findings add to the growing recognition that single motherhood may have long-term health effects on mothers. As lone motherhood is on the rise in many countries, policies addressing health disadvantages of lone mothers may be essential to improving women’s health
and reducing disparities,” wrote the researchers, led by Dr. Lisa Berkman, director of the Harvard Center for Population and Development Studies in Cambridge, MA. Although the study found a link between being single mothers and poorer health, it’s important to note that it wasn’t designed to prove a cause-and-effect relationship. The study was published online recently in the Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health. Researchers looked at data from more than 25,000 women 50 and older in the United States, England and 13 European countries. The
Lester Carter (Continued from pg. 1) the neighborhood where multi-billionaire Warren Buffet still lives. Throughout his life when others sought to deny him a fair opportunity, he seized it, because of his proficiency, success developing alternative cures and attention to detail. Unfortunately for most of 2014, he was forced to apply that tenacious strength of character to keeping himself alive. One Sunday morning early in that year, Dr. Carter, now 83 years old, awoke with such agonizing hip pain that his wife, Irene, had to call for an ambulance. Since his children had moved out 15 years ago, he and his wife lived above the store. Because the aisles in the store were so narrow, the Emergency Medical Technicians could not use a gurney and had to carry him out in a body bag. The rumor circulated through the neighborhood that he had died. Instead he endured two hip replacement surgeries, surgery for colon cancer and for cataracts in both eyes. He also had surgery to fuse two vertebrae in his neck. During his year-long bout with health problems, Irene was diagnosed with lung cancer and died in October. Although he sold the store to Hayat

Pharmacy in March 2014 and now lives in St. Francis with his daughter, in February he returned to work. He now works about 20 hours, four days a week for Hayat Pharmacy, the company to whom he sold his business. “Honestly he is still running the store at 24th St. and Burleigh,” Hashim Zaibak, said. “Even though he is very much part time now because of his health he does most of the ordering and customers seek him out for his ad-
vice.” Mr. Zaibak, the majority owner of Hayat Pharmacy, was born in Palestine. He has lived in the U.S. for 20 years and after working for CVS Pharmacy for 12 years, he opened his first pharmacy in Milwaukee at 3727 W. Wisconsin Ave., in August 2011. All six of his stores are located in the central city. After Mr. Zaibak bought Dr. Carter’s Pharmacy, he moved the prescription part of the business to 1919 W. North
Ave. The herbal supplements and over-the-counter medications continue to be sold at Dr. Carter’s original location. They have even kept the store name. “We really care for the community and we wanted to make sure [the store] stayed in good hands,” Mr. Zaibak said. “It’s a lot easier to make a big impact in the inner city. You can get a good return on your investment.” Dr. Carter came to Milwaukee somewhat impulsively in
women were surveyed about their marital status, children, overall health and their ability to do daily tasks. One-third of U.S. mothers were single mothers before age 50. In England and Western European countries, 22 percent of women were single moms before 50. And just under 40 percent of women in Denmark and Sweden, and 10 percent of those in southern Europe were single mothers before age 50. Single motherhood was defined as having a child younger than 18 and not being married. Single mothers in all countries tended to be younger and poorer. In the United States and England, single mothers also tended to have less education. The researchers said their findings suggest the need for wider access to birth control and policies that help single mothers remain in the workforce and help them balance work-family demands.
1964 after a friend insisted he had to come to Milwaukee. By the time he left Omaha, he was in charge of the pharmacy where he first began his medical-school internship by sweeping the floor and making milkshakes. When he first purchased Carter Pharmacy in 1968, the neighborhood population was primarily German American and initially there was some hesitation among some existing customers about having an African American for a pharmacist. His partner and the man from who he had purchased the store advised him to stand up straight, look each customer directly in the eye and wish them good morning in German. “That worked just fine,” Dr. Carter said chuckling. In all the years that he ran the pharmacy Dr. Carter said the store never suffered a robbery and shoplifting was something he dealt with personally without involving the police. “The one thing that I made mandatory at the beginning was that everyone was treated with courtesy and respect whether they were one year old or 100,” he said. His one regret is that he no longer lives in his former neighborhood. “It’s the best neighborhood in the state,” he said.

Our History

Black music records our legacy (Week 2)
Compiled by: Lynda Jackson Conyers Growing up in the 60s, the Motown performers were artists we all wanted to be like. I practiced my singing skills with the Mount Carmel Baptist Church junior choir. After receiving strange facial expressions from the choir director, I knew my singing career was in trouble. After sharing my aspirations and woes with my mother, she suggested I join the junior usher board because I had a great smile and a bubbly personality. In 1960, an African American man named Berry Gordy created a pop music hit factory. He nurtured and groomed the artistic talent of the heartbeat of American pop music--- the Miracles, Temptations, the Four Tops, Stevie Wonder and my favorite, the Supremes and many more. The Motown performers were polished. They were taught how to sit, stand, speak, dress and act with refinement. The Motown sound was distinct, upbeat and uplifting which captivated a crossover audience. I invite you to take the time to examine our musical roots in gospel, pop and blues. Our legacy is so rich it makes you want to stand up and SHOUT…..
HarperCollins, Jul 1, 2001 Biography & Autobiography 512 pages Setting out initially to raise money for their university, the Fisk Jubilee Singers -- a troupe of young ex-slaves and freedmen -- ended up changing the face of American music. Despite their venues of small-town churches and train stations, and the hardships of poverty and racism, the Jubilee Singers eventually became a popular vocal group whose admirers included Ulysses S. Grant and Queen Victoria. Recounted here for the first time is the career of the Jubilee Singers, which followed one of the most remarkable progressions in American history: from whipping post and auction block to concert hall and throne room.

David Tenenbaum Ebury Press, Aug 1, 2011 African American singers 368 pages When Sam Cooke was shot dead in a cheap motel in Hollywood, he was one of America's most successful pop stars.

phy, Gordy gives an authentic personal account of his career--from the inception of his label, founded with $800 borrowed from his family, to the development of an entertainment empire sold to MCA for $61 million. Along the way, Gordy and his artists faced racism and both personal and professional challenges--and overcame them to leave an indelible mark on American popular culture. To Be Loved is the inspiration for Motown The Musical, which opened on Broadway in April 2013.

Escaping the Delta: Robert Johnson and the Invention of the Blues By; Elijah Wald HarperCollins, Jan 6, 2004 Biography & Autobiography 342 pages Robert Johnson's story presents a fascinating paradox: Why did this genius of the Delta blues excite so little interest when his records were first released in the 1930s? And how did this brilliant but obscure musician come to be hailed long after his death as the most important artist in early blues and a founding father of rock 'n' roll? Elijah Wald provides the first thorough examination of Johnson's work and makes it the centerpiece for a fresh look at the entire history of the blues. He traces the music's rural folk roots but focuses on its evolution as a hot, hip African American pop style, placing the great blues stars in their proper place as innovative popular artists during one of the most exciting periods in American music. He then goes on to explore how the image of the blues was reshaped by a world of generally white fans, with very different standards and dreams. The result is a view of the blues from the inside, based not only on recordings but also on the recollections of the musicians themselves, the African American press, and original research. Wald presents previously unpublished studies of what people on Delta plantations were actually listening to during the blues era, showing the larger
world in which Johnson's music was conceived. What emerges is a new respect and appreciation for the creators of what many consider to be America's deepest and most influential music. Wald also discusses how later fans formed a new view of the blues as haunting Delta folklore. While trying to separate fantasy from reality, he accepts that neither the simple history nor the romantic legend is the whole story. Each has its own fascinating history, and it is these twin histories that inform this book.
Mary Wells: The Tumultuous Life of Motown's First Superstar By: Peter Benjaminson Chicago Review Press, Nov 1, 2012 Biography & Autobiography 320 pages Complete with never-before-revealed details about the sex, violence, and drugs in her life, this biography reveals the incredibly turbulent life of Motown artist Mary Wells. Based in part on four hours of previously unreleased and unpublicized deathbed interviews with Wells, this account delves deeply into her rapid rise and long fall as a recording artist, her spectacular romantic and family life, the violent incidents in which she was a participant, and her abuse of drugs. From tumultuous affairs, including one with R&B superstar Jackie Wilson, to a courageous battle with throat cancer that climaxed in her gutsiest performance, this history draws upon years of interviews with Wells's friends, lovers, and husband to tell the whole story of a woman whose songs crossed the color line and whose voice captivated the Beatles. In the next week's issue, I will continue to highlight more musical legends. - Enjoy…Lynda
