BHC and MICAH announce launching of new bus routes to suburbs

On Friday, August 15, 2014, MICAH and the Black Health Coalition of Wisconsin held a joint press conference and bus tour event to announce the launching of projected new bus routes to suburban communities. The event highlighted the significant achieving by the groups in reaching a settlement with state and federal transportation officials and agencies, of

their Zoo Interchange lawsuit, which was brought on their behalf by the ACLU of Wisconsin and Midwest Environmental Services. Over the next four years, $13.5 million will enable three new bus routes to transport workers and potential job seekers from the City of Milwaukee to suburban job opportunities. At the conclusion of the press conference attendees were invited to board

MCTS buses to experience rides on the new Rt. 6 to Menomonee Falls and Route 279 to New Berlin industrial park. The rides acquainted elected officials and job seekers with the route and employment and other resources along the route. The two routes will begin to function on Sunday, August 24, 2014. The route to New Berlin will launch in January 2015.

Seven essential facts about Ferguson and Mo'ne Davis and Chicago's Jackie Robinson West are big stars at the shooting of Michael Brown On August 9, a police officer shot and killed an unarmed black teenager named Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO. In the days since his death, Ferguson has been rocked by protests, some of which have turned violent. On Saturday, August 16, Missouri Governor Jay Nixon declared a state of emergency and imposed a curfew on Ferguson, closing the streets from midnight to 5 a.m. (though that has since been lifted). Here are the essential facts you need to know to understand who Brown was, how he was killed, and why the nation's eyes are on Ferguson. 1) Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson shot and killed teenager Michael Brown on Saturday, August 9. Michael Brown, 18, was shot to death by police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson around noon on Saturday, August 9. Wilson, 28, is six-year veteran of the Ferguson police department, with no prior disciplinary record. Although the exact circumstances of the shooting remain unclear, Brown was unarmed at the time of the shooting. All shells found at the scene were from Wilson's gun. Brown had graduated from Normandy High School in Wellston in the spring of 2014. He was planning to begin classes at Vatterott College on Monday, August 11, two days after he was killed.

Michael Brown 2) Ferguson is a majority-black city with an overwhelmingly white police force and city government. Ferguson is a majorityblack town. According to the 2010 census, about 67 percent of residents are black and 29 percent are white. That racial makeup is not reflected in the town's institutions. Ferguson's mayor is white. Five of the six members of its city council are white. Six of the seven members of its school board are white. And, most importantly, its police force is overwhelmingly white. Out of the 53 commissioned officers in the Ferguson Police Department, only three are black. And the chief of police, Thomas Jackson, is also white. There is also evidence that the Ferguson police department, like many other local law enforcement agencies, disproportionately stops and arrests black residents. According to a racial profiling report from the Missouri At-

torney General's office that was obtained by Buzzfeed, of the 5,384 traffic stops made last year, 4,632 of them — 86 percent — targeted black drivers. Only 684, or 12.7 percent, targeted white drivers, even though Ferguson is almost 30 percent white. The report also found that innocent black people were much more likely to be searched than innocent white people were. Yet black people were also far more likely to be arrested than whites. According to the same report, 92.7 percent of all people arrested by the Ferguson police in 2013 were black, and 6.9 percent were white. 3) Police and eyewitnesses gave contradictory accounts of the shooting. Some details of what occurred during the shooting are undisputed. Brown was originally stopped for jaywalking, because he and a friend were walking in the middle of the street. Wilson fired multiple shots at Brown, at least one of which was fired from his squad car. Brown was unarmed, and all of the shells found at the scene were from the officer's gun. There is also some physical evidence available. On Sunday, August 17, the Brown family released a preliminary report on the private autopsy they had commissioned. Dr. Michael M. Baden, who conducted the examination, (Contained on pg. 16)

Little League World Series South Williamsport, PA — An African-American female pitcher from Philadelphia and a team from Chicago have created a buzz at the Little League World Series. Philly's Mo'ne Davis and the Jackie Robinson West squad are the talk of the series; professional athletes and politicians alike are following their every move. They've Skyped with the Los Angeles Dodgers, had shoutouts from NBA star Kevin Durant on Twitter and the Pennsylvania governor was in South Williamsport on Friday. Davis, one of two girls in this year's tournament, is the unquestioned fan favorite. The crowd cheers her every pitch and at-bat. Canada's Emma March also felt the support before her team was eliminated Saturday. The all-black Chicago squad shows there is still interest in the game in urban communities, even though African Americans accounted for only about 8 percent of major league teams' opening day rosters this year. Paul Graziano, an LLWS press box announcer since 1980, has never seen this level of excitement so early in the tournament. Not to diminish other LLWS highlights — including Rhode Island's exciting rally against Nashville or Las Vegas' rout of Chicago — but Davis has become a must-see performer. Her Philadelphia squad came from behind Sunday night to set up the showdown with Las Vegas. Davis received standing ovations from the crowd of more than 15,000 en route to becoming the first female pitcher to throw a shutout in Little League World Series history. David Stoker, a native of Mifflinville, PA, said from his perspective as a LLWS usher and Little League umpire for the past 48 years, Davis has become the "spotlight" of young girls' eyes. Jackie Robinson West is a rare group of guys in the tournament. The Chicago group dominated its first game, but were blown out by Las Vegas on Sunday. Still, the second team from Little League's Urban Initiative to make it to the series has created a buzz of its own and has done its part to put the tournament on a bigger stage. "Hopefully (Chicago's success) will foster more growth in urban cities to help grow Little League," Graziano said. The overflow of attention that Davis and Chicago have garnered — in the stands, around the concourse and sports talk shows around the

Mo'ne Davis country — generates more pressure. Stoker cautioned fans, especially adults, to keep in mind these players are still just kids. "The boys have come through this, the girls are now on the same level and I think we as adults should let them grow up," Stoker said. Stoker makes a good point, but Davis and Jackie Robinson West have already elevated interest in this series — and in them.

History and Ferguson, Missouri

By Dan Rather Host, 'Dan Rather Presents' As I watched with a sickening sense of deja vu the images coming out of Ferguson, Missouri this week, I couldn't help but come to this conclusion: we have allowed a pernicious historical revisionism to undermine the legacy of the civil rights movement. A half century ago, after covering datelines like Birmingham, Alabama and Oxford, Mississippi and men like Dr. Martin Luther King and Medgar Evers, I came to Washington as the CBS News White House Correspondent to report on the Johnson administration. Some of the successes from the front lines in the civil rights struggle I had covered as a field reporter were just being codified into groundbreaking legislation -- the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act. If you had asked me then what America would look like in 50 years, namely now in our present time, there were two visions I would never have believed. I never would have dreamed that we would elect an African American president. That seemed a leap forward that would take at least a century. On the other hand, I didn't think we would see voting rights rolled back, de facto school resegregation in much of the nation, and scenes like we saw this week of an almost all-white police force in a majority African American town facing off against peaceful marchers in military-style gear and heavy weaponry... But both President Obama and Ferguson, Missouri are the realities of race in 21st Century America. I have wondered the last few days what Dr. King and his fellow leaders would have made of a nation of such seeming contradictions. I would never have the audacity to attempt to speak for Dr. King, but I think he would challenge us by saying

something like, "you have achieved much but you only focused on half of my message." The way the civil rights movement largely lives in our national consciousness is that it was all about race. But that is only part of the story. It was as much about the powerful and the powerless. The rich and the poor. Those who have opportunity and those of whom the circumstances of birth allowed for very little reason for hope. In short, it is about true equality of opportunity for ALL Americans, or as close as is humanly possible to come to that. I would respectfully suggest that we focus at looking at Ferguson, Missouri through a broader prism of civil rights. We don't really know everything that took place during that tragic and fateful encounter between a young, unarmed black man and the police. Indeed that is part of the frustration. There needs to be a full and impartial investigation with deliberate speed. Yes, you have to see the scenes from Ferguson in the lens of race. The pictures and video capture well the differences in skin color between those marching and those holding the guns. But that is not the only divide. If somehow there was a camera that could capture life stories, you would see other lines of partition between those who hold the power in Ferguson and many of those marching. You would see divisions along economic lines, educational opportunities, access to health care, and so many others. We can and should debate policy in this country but we should not debate the facts of so much inequality. So debate the role of unions, but don't debate that many workers are suffering with low pay and poor working conditions. Debate the role of charter schools and the Common Core, but do not debate whether there is inequality in our education system. Debate how to best

Rebuilding our Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D. Community BySpecial for the Milwaukee Times The new normal We all know that it continues to happen... no one should be surprise by it. But each time it happens... something else in the narrative just seems unthinkable. In a nutshell, gun violence in America should be officially labeled as a disease and treated as such. We need to find a cure for this new disease that is affecting our quality of life and certainly plaguing our communities. Of course there are a lot of root causes that feed into this new disease, including poverty, hopelessness, unemployment, mental illness, lack of education, racism, prejudice, neglect, self-worth, wealth, public policy and social status. In a recent report by the Children’s Defense Fund, “The State of America’s Children 2014” paints a clear picture of what is occurring. This report is just “eye opening and jaw dropping” and is a report card that reveals just how deep the “rabbit hole” is. I must warn you that this report could be too much to handle for many and will require some time to process for most. This report contains what most of us fear, hear about, or have seen deal with our immigration problems, but do not debate that millions of men, women, and children are living in the shadows amongst us. Addressing these economic and social ills, which disproportionately affect communities of color, must be just as much a part of Dr. King's legacy as racial equality. We remember and laud the march on Washington and the "I Have a Dream" speech, but at the time of Dr. King's assassination, he was leading what was known as the "Poor Person's Campaign." He described it as "the beginning of a new co-operation, understanding, and a determination by poor people of all colors and backgrounds to assert and win their right to a decent life and respect for their culture and dignity." (Emphasis mine). Dr. King was vague about how he would have the country accomplish this. And whatever proposed solutions from that time would likely be dated today. That's not the point. Ultimately civil rights is not a black-and-white issue, literally or figuratively. It's about liberty and justice for all. With Ferguson, there are worthy discussions about

firsthand in our communities... that gun violence is having a great impact on our youth. Here are some of the facts cited in the report: guns kill or injure a child or teen every half hour. In 2010, 2,694 children and teens were killed by guns and 15,576 were injured by guns. Guns killed more infants, toddlers and preschoolers than law enforcement officers in the line of duty. US children and teens are 17 times more likely to die from gun violence than their peers in 25 other high-income countries. Since 1963, three times as many children and teens have died from guns on American soil than U.S. soldiers killed in action in the Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq wars. In 2010, Black children and teens were nearly five times and Hispanic children and teens race in America, and whether the police are too militarized. Yet we must see that even these important topics fit into a larger narrative. This nation has perilous fault lines between its citizens. Race is part of the story, but so too

were more than three times more likely to be killed by guns than White children and teens. The U.S. military and law enforcement agencies possess 4 million guns, US civilians have 310 million. Every year American companies manufacture enough bullets to fire 31 rounds into every one of our citizens. As you can see, there is a need for some fresh ideas to deal with our addiction to guns and the impact it is having on our future. If we are unwilling to deal with this long term problem, there will be no end in sight and this new normal will become permanent. Additionally, this report is not alone in painting the picture of our nation that is in serious trouble with its future generations, but also a nation that is in trouble in its defense of its true principles and its moral compass. What do you think? Dr. Andrew Calhoun, can be contacted at andrewiiicalhoun@ gmail.com, Twitter #AC53, or call 414-571-5015. You can hear Dr. Calhoun each Sunday at Grace Fellowship Church, 3879 N. Port Washington Rd. Milwaukee. are questions of economic and social justice. Dr. King saw these divisions and worried about them. We must as well, if we care, really care, about what is to become of our country.

The Counseling Corner

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

Breaking the chains that bind: The chain of self-indulgence (Week4) “Jesus asked, “Didn’t I heal ten men? Where are the other nine? Has no one returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?”” - Luke 17:17-18 One of the most common challenges confronting humanity today is the spirit of ingratitude. There seems to be a spirit of we have a right and have earned the privilege to receive what we have and get what we want. Thus, too often we demonstrate the lack of appreciation of the favor or grace received, because we erroneously believe the world owes us something. The Bible calls this spirit, ingratitude and God condemns and rebukes such a spirit. (See Romans 1:11). Charles Emerson Spurgeon called ingratitude, irreverent, because it dishonors the one who extends the gift. Such was the case in the gospel of Luke with the ten

lepers whom Jesus healed, yet only one returned to say thanks. According to Luke’s gospel, the only gospel to record this narrative, Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem. Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee. The Jews and the Samaritans had no dealing with each other, yet this leper village was made up of Jews and Samaritans. The dreaded disease of leprosy in the first century was thought to be contagious and lepers were colonized in colonies outside of the city. Nevertheless, their disease reduced both Jew and Gentile to their base humanity. So, when these ten men saw Jesus coming, they recognized Jesus and cried out to Him; the Jew and Gentile, with a single and inclusive voice, "have mercy on us." (Luke 17:13). These lepers discovered what many people and communities never come to acknowledge; we have more in common than we have that separates us. Their cry suggested they

had resolved their differences were of no consequence; they were all sick and needed a healing. Perhaps, if we today could only comprehend one lesson from Luke’s narrative about the ten lepers, let it be that we have more in common than we do that separates us. In fact, Luke’s narrative teaches us another invaluable lesson: Our nation, our communities, our neighborhoods are polarized around social systems, but at base we are all in need of the same thing, healing! We all need a Savior, to heal us of what ails us! When Jesus and His disciples came near the village, the

ten leprous men recognized Jesus, they cried out to Jesus and Jesus had compassion on them. Jesus told them to go and show themselves to the priests and as they were on their way, they were healed. (Luke 17:14). Once the lepers recognized they had been healed of leprosy, only one returned to give thanks to Jesus for the healing. Beloved, this writer will conclude this series next week, but this narrative shows us that even Jesus the Christ expects us to be grateful enough to take the time to thank God for His grace and mercy. But before you come down too heavy on

the nine who did not return, take a few moments and reflect on the blessings God has provided to you. Have you been thankful or have you at times demonstrated gross ingratitude for the kindness God has shown to you? The bottom line is if you want to maintain a growing, vibrant relationship with Jesus the Christ, you must cultivate a spirit of gratitude and a continued atmosphere of worship and thanksgiving for all the blessings that have flowed from God to you. Next Week: Conclusion The writer does not assume responsibility in any way for readers’ efforts to apply or utilize information or recommendations made in these articles, as they may not be necessarily appropriate for every situation to which they may refer. Rather, the objective is strictly informative and educational. If you would like to contact Rev. Lester, write to her c/o P.O. Box 121, Brookfield, WI. 53008.

Bulletin Board All students at 156 MPS schools will be able to receive a healthy breakfast, lunch at no charge MPS announces participation in Community Eligibility Program (CEP) Milwaukee Public Schools announced Monday, August 18, 2014 an amendment to its policy for serving meals to students under the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs for the 2014-2015 school year. The district is now among the first school systems in Wisconsin participating in the Community Eligibility Program (CEP), which means that all students at 156 MPS elementary, middle and high schools will be able to receive a healthy breakfast and lunch at no charge, regardless of family income. MPS is able to participate in the U.S. Department of Agriculture program, which is federally funded, because of its high percentage of students who come from low-income households. Last year, 83 percent of MPS students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which is close to double the state average in Wisconsin. This school year marks the first year Wisconsin schools are

eligible to participate in CEP. Participating in the program will increase the efficiency of the district’s food service operations. “Having every student come to school well nourished and ready to learn is absolutely critical to students’ well-being – and it’s critical to our work to improve student outcomes,” MPS Acting Superintendent Dr. Darienne Driver said. “Children who are hungry can’t concentrate on learning. They’re focused on their hunger. We’re proud to help lead the effort to ensure that doesn’t happen.” The change means MPS parents will not have to submit a meal benefits application. However, families will be asked to complete a simple, alternate survey form for the district which will be used to determine eligibility for fee waivers and other educational benefits.

Education

At 16, MPS grad is off to the Ivy League

Helen Fetaw and her MPS Class of 2014 classmates earned $31 million in scholarships Going to one of the nation’s most prestigious universities is a goal of thousands if not tens of thousands of American high school graduates each year. For Helen Fetaw, a graduate of Milwaukee Public Schools’ Rufus King International High School, that dream has become reality – at age 16. She’s headed to the University of Pennsylvania, an Ivy League school located in Philadelphia, this fall. Fetaw’s success story is one of many among the MPS Class of 2014. MPS’ 2014 graduates earned a total of $31 million in scholarships to colleges and universities including Brown University, Columbia University in the City of New York, the Milwaukee School of Engineering, Marquette University, New York University, the U.S. Naval Academy, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the University of WisconsinMilwaukee and many more. You can read more success stories at http://mpsmke. com/succeed. Seats are still available in a number of MPS schools that start September 2 and families can apply at any MPS school, at MPS’ District Parent Resource Cen-

ters at North Division and South Division high schools, at MPS Central Services or online at http://mpsmke. com/enrollmps. Fetaw was born in Zogno, Italy to parents originally from Eritrea in east Africa. She immigrated to the United States at age three. From an early age, education was a focus. “People spend time with the things they value and my parents mentored, inspired and challenged me. At the age of four my father and I would spend time at the public library or at home teaching me subtraction and addition with a box of Cheerios,” Fetaw said. She also watched her mom earn a nursing degree. “My mother truly inspired me going back to school with three small children. Witnessing the nights she’d stay crammed up at our little kitchen table for hours poring over books, motivates me to this day to continue in pursuit of my endeavors,” the Rufus King grad said. Those early lessons from dad – along with absorbing

School for the Gifted and Talented. Even while taking advanced classes at a gifted and talented middle school, she sought an even greater challenge. Fetaw was promoted into 8th grade early. Impressed with the dedicated teachers at each of the MPS schools attended, Helen speaks highly of her grade 8 biology instructor in particular. “Ms. Stone took the time to understand me both as a student and Helen Fetaw a person. She encouraged my dedication to everything her older sister learning and sought to help brought home from school me succeed in her class – as– helped Fetaw skip from sisting me before and after K4 to K5 at MPS’ 81st Street school answering my numerSchool, she said. From there ous questions and continuing it was on to Lancaster School, to encourage me in all my en95th Street School and Sam- deavors,” Fetaw said. uel Morse Middle School She says she can’t thank all for the Gifted and Talented, those who contributed to her now part of Morse·Marshall education enough, including

both educators and fellow students. “I had the pleasure of studying with students that embraced education for all that it offers, in and out of the classroom,” Fetaw noted. “I admired the teachers who could make their students laugh with innovative diagrams and real-world anecdotes.” She said that motivation that surrounds MPS students – again, both educators and peers – propels students to succeed. Fetaw certainly has. At Penn, she plans to study pre-medicine and biochemistry with a minor in bioethics and Spanish. From there, the Rufus King grad plans to go on to medical school, pursuing research and traveling to enrich her experiences by providing medical services in countries that need assistance. Her advice to her peers is to take advantage of different opportunities, take responsibility for your dreams and dedicate yourself to hard work. “Persevere against all odds until the day that comes where your dreams and reality are one in the same,” she said.

Do it now! Tips to get ready for back-to-school (part 2 of 2) By Cynthia Ewer Author of "Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting Organized" With the start of school, families face new organizational challenges. School bells ring--and so do earlymorning alarm clocks. Paper piles swell as hand-outs and homework stream into the house. This week we conclude our look at ways to keep it all under control for a smooth transition into the new year for both you and your child. Gather your papers School entry may require documentation from immunization records to report cards from the previous

school year. Athletes need proof of medical examination. A little preparation can prevent frantic last-minute searches for a birth certificate or registration confirmation. Call your child's school or check the school district Web site beforehand to find out what paperwork will be required--then find it! You won't be sorry come registration day. Take aim on morning madness How are school mornings in your home? Crazed and chaotic, or calm and cheerful? Plan ahead to send your schoolchildren--and yourself--out the door in a happy

frame of mind. Each evening, think ahead to the following morning; where can you lighten the load? Set the breakfast table as you clear the dinner dishes, and make sure breakfast foods are easy to reach. Lay out children's clothing the night before. Scan backpacks or launch pad spaces for missing homework, projects or library books. Make sure musical instruments or sports bags are packed and ready to go. Do "bathroom wars" break out daily among the small fry? Multi-child households may need a bathroom schedule so that everyone gets equal time before the mirror. What do you do about

books and papers, lunch money and permission slips? Practice the Launch Pad concept! By creating a dedicated space for every family member, a Launch Pad gets the family out the door in record time--and organized. Make a practice run How will children get to school? The first day of school is no time to find out it takes ten minutes--not five-to walk to the nearest bus stop! Before school begins, make a practice run to get children to the school on time. If they'll walk, help them learn the route they'll take and note the needed time. Car-pooling? Make sure

The need is always significant so please consider making a donation. New school supplies can be dropped off Monday thru Friday from 9:00 a.m. to noon and 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.. There is a special need for backpacks.

the dry run accounts for early-morning traffic! Bus riders will need to be familiar with the location of the bus stop; print and post the bus schedule to prevent a missed bus. Spiff up household systems A new school year quickens the tempo of family life. Sports activities, music lessons, church programs and volunteer commitments tap parental time and put new mileage on the mini-van. Get organized! Spiff up your household systems to meet autumn's faster pace. • Clean house ... fast! Take a stab at speed cleaning and whip through household chores in record time. • Cut time in the kitchen: create a menu plan and never again wonder "What's for dinner?" • Streamline dinner preparations. Try a session of freezer cooking to stock the freezer with prepared entrees for stress-free dinner on sports night. • Conquer the paper pileup. Set up a basic home filing system to track school paperwork, volunteer activities and household planning Happy New School Year! Time to swing into a new school year--from an organized home.

Roundy’s pharmacies make flu shots quick, easy and convenient CDC urges all to get vaccinated as soon as possible, ideally before October

As the CDC warns that peak flu season is approaching, Roundy’s stores – Pick ‘n Save, Copps, Metro Market and Mariano’s – are conveniently making flu shots available at all pharmacies, with no appointment needed during all pharmacy operating hours. All Roundy’s pharmacists are certified immunizers and are available to administer the traditional flu vaccine and Fluzone HD for patients ages 65 and older. For added convenience, customers can simply stop by the pharmacy during their weekly grocery shopping, and pharmacists can administer the vaccina-

Roundy’s flu shots will protect against A/ California/7/2009(H1N1) pdm09-like virus, A/ Texas/50/2012(H3N2)-like virus, and B/Massachusetts/ d/2012-like virus.

as possible to protect themselves and their loved ones this year by getting their flu shot.” The CDC recommends that all people aged 6 months and older receive a flu vaccine, as a yearly vaccination is the best way to protect against the flu. They recommend getting vaccinated as soon as the vaccine becomes available, ideally before October. It takes two weeks for the antibodies to develop and provide protection. Flu season typically peaks in winter and can last a few months but virus activity is unpredictable year to year. However, immunity to the

vaccination can be expected to last 6-8 months. The vaccination is not a guarantee that the virus will not be contracted, but those that are vaccinated will experience a shorter duration of the illness and milder symptoms Other flu prevention techniques include drinking plenty of water, washing hands frequently and thoroughly and getting an adequate amount of sleep each night. For more information please visit the Pick ‘n Save, Copps, Metro Market or Mariano’s website for a list of pharmacies and their hours of operation.

Mercy, mercy we: Managing stress in traumatic times Are we living in 1964 or 2014? Yes, I am aware it is 2014, but with all that has taken place recently one must wonder. I mean c’mon, it seems like every week we have to hear of or deal with a tragedy that tops the one before. The news, community conversation, social media platforms, TV and radio all seem to spew the same message with no solutions. Violence and reports of it in this magnitude, overlapping moment by moment, can eventually take up residence in a society’s mind. Like combat veterans, every day citizens – especially our youth – develop posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). As many as onethird of children living in our country’s urban neighborhoods have PTSD, according to recent research and the country’s top child trauma experts. That’s nearly twice the rate reported for troops returning from war zones in Iraq. Can you imagine what the number is for adults who are bombarded with violence on all media platforms and not to mention their daily life stressors? My questions in the midst of all of this are, where do we go to process our emotions, who do we turn to, how do we deal with it all and what can we do to stay sane and mentally healthy in these stressful times? First, let’s look at some of the symptoms of stress. Your behavior: • An increase or decrease in your energy and activity levels • An increase in your alcohol, tobacco use, or use of illegal drugs • An increase in irritability, with outbursts of anger and frequent arguing • Having trouble relaxing or sleeping • Crying frequently • Worrying excessively • Wanting to be alone most of the time

Bethesda Baptist Church hosts '4th Annual Community Cookout' Bethesda Baptist Church held their Fourth Annual Community Cookout on Saturday, August 9, 2014, under a tent on the church grounds. Dignitaries invited to the picnic included: Congresswoman Gwen Moore, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn, Rev. Robert Wilson, Rev. Willie Briscoe. Ald. Russell Stamper, County Supervisor David Bowen and others. Before sitting to dine, Rev. Sims introduced Chief Flynn and the mayor. The chief used the opportunity to talk briefly about the unrelenting violence in Milwaukee while Mayor Barrett used the occasion to share a familiar story that he has shared on numerous other occasions that when he goes to bed at night too often he has been awakened by telephone calls stating someone has been shot fatally, and that too often the individual who has been shot is a black male. The setting was an ideal opportunity for candidates seeking political office to shake hands with many potential voters only days before the August 12th primary elections. Pictured here are: First Lady Etharine Melton-Sims, Chief Flynn, Rev. Robert Sims, Rev. Robert Wilson and Mayor Tom Barrett.

Demetrious Williams and the Community Baptist Churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Men's Networking group. The officials heard an array of concerns regarding the boardedup former Finney Library building, which has been closed for 10 years, and an apartment building with vacant commercial space

that was built with WHEDA dollars on W. North Ave. The group went on to share their concerns about boarded-up housing, failing schools, school busing and the re-entry of inmates into the community. Mayor Barrett spoke of the number of city programs his administration has promoted to keep youth working.

What’s Happening?

Ferguson (Continued from pg. 1) found that Brown was shot at least six times, and all of the bullets were fired into his front. Baden also determined that Brown had been shot twice in the head, and that a bullet that hit the top of his head was most likely the shot that killed him. However, many of the other details of what happened remain unclear, and a police account of the shooting are different from what eyewitnesses have said happened. Brown's friend Dorian Johnson, who was with him when the shooting occurred, gave this account to MSNBC: Johnson said that he and Brown had been walking in the middle of the street when a police officer approached and told them to use the sidewalk. They complied, and the officer began to drive away, but then threw his car into reverse and came back alongside the teens, nearly hitting them. Johnson heard Wilson say something like "What'd you say?", before trying to open his car door, slamming it into Brown. Then the officer reached out and grabbed Brown by the neck with his left hand. The two men struggled briefly, and then Wilson, still in his car, shot Brown once. Johnson said that he and Brown both attempted to flee, but Brown was shot a second time. After the second shot, Brown turned around and surrendered, putting his hands in the air and saying, "I don't have a gun. Stop shooting!" Johnson said that Wilson then approached Brown and fired several more shots, killing him. Eyewitness Piaget Crenshaw told the St. Louis PostDispatch that she was waiting for a bus when she saw a police officer try to place Brown in his squad car. Then she saw Brown attempt to flee, with his hands in the air. The officer shot Brown multiple times as Brown ran away, said Crenshaw, who has provided photographs of the scene to law enforcement. The local police who are tasked with investigating the shooting, by contrast, claim that Brown was killed after he assaulted Wilson. St. Louis County police chief Jon Belmar said that the shooting occurred after Brown pushed Wilson back into his squad car, "where he physically assaulted the officer" and then struggled over Wilson's weapon. According to Belmar, Wilson then fired once from the car, and then several more times as Brown attempted to flee. Belmar's verbal account has thus far been the only source for Wilson's version of events, as no incident reports of the shooting have been released despite media requests. During a briefing on Wednesday August 13, Ferguson Police

Peaceful protesters rally for justice in Ferguson. chief Tom Jackson said that Officer Wilson was injured during the encounter with Brown, and that the side of his face was "swollen" afterwards. 4) The police have refused to release the autopsy report or any information about their investigation of what happened during the shooting. The St. Louis County Police are in charge of the local investigation into Brown's death. However, they have refused to release the report from the autopsy conducted by the St. Louis County medical examiner, or any details about the evidence they have gathered so far. This lack of information has become a major rallying point for the protesters, who have made repeated demands that Wilson be brought to justice. Despite the lack of detail, there are worrying signs that investigators may not be approaching the investigation in a thorough, professional manner. For instance, the police apparently did not interview Brown's friend Dorian Johnson until Wednesday, August 13, even though he was a key eyewitness. 5) The protests were met with an aggressive police response. Although the protests have been largely peaceful, they have nevertheless drawn an extremely heavy police response. On Saturday, more than 100 officers from 15 different local departments arrived at the scene, bringing police dogs in an effort to control the crowd. The departments' use of dogs has since been roundly criticized by law enforcement experts, with former Seattle Police Chief Norman Stamper saying that "using dogs for crowd control is operationally, substantively, and from an image point-of-view just about the worst thing you can do." The aggressiveness of the security operation escalated during the following days, and involved the use of military equipment and tactics. Officers deployed through the streets wearing full body armor and gas masks, and carrying rifles. They also used MRAP armored vehicles originally designed to withstand explosions from land mines or IEDs, and a sound weapon called a Long Range Acoustic Device, or LRAD. Some improvement was seen on Thursday, August 14, after Capt. Johnson from the highway patrol was placed in

charge of the security operations. Johnson's tactics emphasized communication over confrontation, and they immediately produced a much calmer atmosphere in Ferguson. On Thursday evening, he marched with protesters, and apologized for the use of tear gas. Later that night, he spoke to the press while holding a photograph of Michael Brown — a powerful symbol of respect. 6) The police released information suggesting Brown had stolen from a convenience store, but that wasn't the reason Wilson stopped him. In marked contrast with the lack of detail about the autopsy or investigation into the shooting, the Ferguson police did release information on Friday that suggested Brown may have stolen cigars from a local convenience store shortly before his death, including a copy of a police report and surveillance video footage of the alleged crime, which Ferguson police Chief

Tom Jackson referred to as a "strong-arm robbery." The video footage released by police appears to show a man taking cigars from behind the counter, and then shoving the store clerk aside when he attempted to block the door. Jackson has been heavily criticized for releasing the footage, particularly after he indicated, hours after the release, that Wilson was not aware that Brown was a robbery suspect at the time. Jackson said that the "initial contact was unrelated to the robbery," and that Wilson was not responding to a call about the robbery. Instead, he had stopped the teen for jaywalking. Many have noted, even if Wilson had stopped Brown because of a robbery, that fact alone would not make it legal for Wilson to shoot Brown while he was surrendering. (Jackson later told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that Wilson thought Brown could be the robbery suspect during the course of the stop, when he saw the packet of cigars Brown was holding.) He said he released the information to comply with requests from journalists. On Saturday, it was reported that Jackson had released the robbery footage and police report over objections from the Department of Justice. An unnamed law enforcement source told NBC News that the DOJ

had urged local police not to make the footage public, arguing that it could inflame tensions in the town. Many local residents greeted Jackson's announcement with outrage. Brown's family said, through their lawyer, that they believed the release of the robbery footage was "strategic," and an "attempt at character assassination." And a handful of protesters in Ferguson did turn violent for several hours that night, prompting the governor to declare a state of emergency the following day. 7) The federal government is also investigating Brown's death. The Justice Department is investigating the shooting to determine whether it violated Brown's civil rights. Two days after Brown was killed, on August 11, Attorney General Eric Holder said that the shooting deserved "a fulsome review" and announced that FBI agents from the St. Louis field office would conduct a "concurrent" investigation into Brown's death, working with attorneys from the DOJ's Civil Rights Division and the US Attorneys' Office. The DOJ announced Sunday, August 17, that a federal medical examiner would conduct a new autopsy of Brown's body. That will be the third time an autopsy is done in this case.
