From Ferguson to Milwaukee (and beyond): Broken hearts, broken trust, broken system The following is a statement from Alderwoman Milele A. Coggs From Ferguson to Milwaukee and across the U.S., the devaluation of Black life is widespread and at epidemic levels. Whether it is white police officers in Ferguson or Black men on 15th & Atkinson in Milwaukee, the senseless and violent end for too many young Black souls continues on. The outrage, anger, hurt and pain that is felt with any senseless loss of life is present regardless of the race or the occupation of the offender. However, it is particularly troubling – and polarizing – when those entrusted to protect and serve the public are the ones who

Milele A. Coggs have taken a life. The August 9, 2014 murder of 18-year-old African American Mike Brown at the hands of Darren Wilson, a white City of Ferguson police officer, has sparked nights of protests and unrest

in Ferguson and across the nation. Many eyewitnesses said Brown had his hands raised in submission at the time some of the fatal six bullets were fired. Brown's name is now added to the unfortunate and long list of African Americans who have lost their lives at the hands of a police officer. Several Milwaukee families know all too well the broken heart, broken trust, and broken system the Brown family is now coming to grips with. Heartbroken because no parent ever expects to bury their child; broken trust because officers are supposed to protect and serve and be allies in efforts to keep the peace; and broken “system” because of how these cases are too often handled, with the ultimate adjudication in favor of the officer (with rarely any charge or penalty) and without the justice sought by the family and the community. As painful as it is to watch the coverage of the unrest in Ferguson, whether one wants to admit it or not, Milwaukee is just a death or two away from being Ferguson. All of the same ingredients are here: Conditions of poverty, joblessness, despair, segregation and various other racial inequities are here in Milwaukee, just as they are in Ferguson. The death of Mike Brown was Ferguson’s spark (Continued on pg. 2)

Partners in Pursuit of the Promise: Inside knowledge

Photo by George Neal

Cancer affects women in all population groups. However, data reflective of trends in cancer incidence, diagnosis, mortality, and survival reveal that Black women bear a disproportionate burden. Research has shown that awareness, screening and follow-up of abnormal screening results are the best way for Black women to lower their risk of dying from cancer. Several health care systems, cancer foundations and local advocacy groups have undertaken efforts to promote cancer awareness, detection and control. Yet, many women, especially those that reside in central city neighborhoods of SE Wisconsin, experience barriers navigating the complexities of the health care system. Inside Knowledge was pre-

sented to help reverse this trend. Inside Knowledge is a campaign designed and launched by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to increase knowledge and awareness about the signs and symptoms of the gynecologic cancers. The program, which was sponsored by the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee College of Nursing with funding provided to the Wisconsin Comprehensive Cancer Control Program and support from the Wisconsin Well Woman Program, featured Dr. Felicia D. Robertson, Aurora Health Care (Wauwatosa, WI); Dr. Gladys Onojobi, Howard University Medical Center (Washington, DC); Dr. Patricia McManus, Black Health Coalition (Milwaukee, WI), Gale Johnson,

Wisconsin Well Woman Progam (Madison, WI); Bonnie Anderson, Nurses Effecting Change (Milwaukee, WI) and Dr. Sandra Millon Underwood, University of Wisconsin Milwaukee (Milwaukee, WI). The program speakers emphasized that women should: Know their bodies; know what is normal for them; see a doctor for unexplained signs or symptoms of disease that last over two weeks; obtain recommended cancer screening tests; and obtain health care coverage. To obtain information about Inside Knowledge, copies of the information presented at the program, and/or a schedule of upcoming events contact Sandra Millon Underwood RN, PhD at 414-229-6032.

National & Local News

From Ferguson to Milwaukee (Continued from pg. 1) and if Milwaukee does not make changes soon, I believe our spark is coming. The question becomes what can be done to prevent from setting this city on fire, to fix that which is obviously broken. While the eradication of poverty, and dismantling of systemic racism and all of its vestiges will likely take generations, there are countless things we can do today to fight to improve community-police relations, demonstrate the tremendous value of all human life, and to ensure a sense of justice right now. Whether it is pushing for the continued diversification of the Milwaukee police force, supporting the police officer body camera legislation I have introduced, continuing to hold the Fire and Police Commission accountable, limiting local police access to military grade weaponry, voting to help determine who gets elected as District Attorney and who selects the leadership in the local police department, and who truly makes our laws, or even things as simple as allowing your voice to be heard by participating in local rallies for jusStaff Photo tice, there are so many possibilities for pushing for change. We must do all we can from our individual vantage points Hundreds of people assembled in downtown Milwaukee last week chanting: ‘No communally, legislatively, in our homes, on our blocks and at justice, no peace!’ and ‘Don’t trust the police!’, which became the rallying chants the polls to change the climate and work diligently so no oth- of community activists who took to the streets from Red Arrow Park to the police er families have to deal with the broken heart Mike Brown's administration building to highlight some of the conflicts Milwaukee residents have family is dealing with right now. In turn, we must work to experienced with the Milwaukee Police Department. The protestors also stood in mend the broken trust between the community and those solidarity with the people of Ferguson, Missouri who were demanding justice for the who are given the responsibility to protect and serve, and to police-involved shooting of Michael Brown who was laid to rest on Monday, August fix our justice system to ensure that it makes clear that Black 25, 2014. Protestors in Milwaukee used Brown’s death to shed light on policing in life is valuable. Mending hearts, rebuilding trust and changing the justice Milwaukee and their perceived injustices. system is not easy but it's what we must do from Ferguson to Milwaukee, and beyond.

New Hope Annual Bazaar supports Youth Ministry

A little reminder about life insurance. A curious little reminder.

Staff Photos

Since 2007, Deacon Bennie Morris of New Hope Baptist Church, 2433 W. Roosevelt Drive, has been chairman of the Church’s annual bazaar held on the church’s parking lot. Parishioners who participated in the bazaar rent tables and two chairs for a nominal fee to sell their gently used clothing and household items. Funds raised during the bazaar help support the church’s Youth Ministry, according to Deacon Morris. He went on to say things were a bit slow this year but the planning committee for the bazaar is already working to top what they’ve achieved in previous years. Pictured above (from left) are: Deacon Bennie Morris, Sister Annie and Rev. Freddie Bufford and seated far right, Brother Antwann Henderson. Rev. Archie Ivy is pastor.

Media created misery

Let’s get it right It cannot be said enough. In order for change to occur all of us must participate in the process and create the reality we seek and so deserve. Every step we take and every opportunity we have to make our collective voices to be heard... everyone must be engaged to ensure that outcome. We can’t wait or depend on others to understand, appreciate or embrace our values, culture, ethnic background, needs or spiritual heritage. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi...“You must be the change we wish to see in the world.” What happen in Ferguson, Missouri this past week is nothing new, but rather is a continual narrative in our American experience over the past 400 years. The tragic loss of life of an unarmed Black male teenager at the hand of law enforcement continues to raise red flags and is a failure of the system, policy, lack of training and just common sense. But what this event also uncovered was a failure of leadership, teamwork, outreach, partnerships and civic engagement. It is clear that the failure was on all fronts... and many of those fiascoes carried on for several days and violated some many civ-

ic rights. In so many ways, some things could not have been handled worse. In addition, there was a lack of professionalism, high levels of hostility and poor judgment. Well... here is the real shocker... the community of Ferguson is not alone. It cannot be understated that there are a number of communities across America that need to make serious changes, like Ferguson. These changes include leadership, workforce, policies, procedures, and voting and community relations. We must come to grips with the fact that numerous cities in America need to make a transition and transformation. People must be aware that any system must be reflective in meeting the ongo-

ing needs of people they are intended to support. And with each system there has to be both checks and balances. It is unclear what will be the outcome of all the events that occurred in Ferguson; however, one thing is for certain, the city and its residents will never be the same. Things will change and it will take those residents to make those critical changes and not outsiders. Residents in other similar communities across the nation will need to learn from the failures of Ferguson and chart a new course. The loss of any young person to gun violence is one too many and if we are to learn anything from Ferguson it's to make sure we get it right and pass those lessons on. What do you think?

"One individual can begin a movement that turns the tide of history. Martin Luther King in the civil rights movement, Mohandas Gandhi in India, Nelson Mandela in South Africa are examples of people standing up with courage and non-violence to bring about needed changes." - Jack Canfield

Anxiety is the drug of choice for 90 percent of the population. The media creates anxiety and fear in the masses by dosing them with problems from all over the globe. Because of this media blitz the masses transform the created anxiety and fear into worry. The media has created a need in people to worry. Since worry has never solved a problem why worry about anything? Better yet why worry or even think about issues that have nothing to do with you? Television showcases events from one area of the USA and transform the situation into a problem for the whole country. Case in point, Ferguson, MO. If you are not a resident of Ferguson why are you upset over what happened? Why would someone in Milwaukee lose sleep over an incident in Missouri? That is not being callous towards others, it’s being real. The incident in Ferguson has played out in various forms in Milwaukee several times in the past. Did the citizens of Ferguson have a march for Milwaukee? People have to start asking themselves if what they watch on TV is conducive to peace of mind. If a television news story creates anxiety and strong negative emotions what good is this information to you? Why think or create fear or anger when the issue fueling these emotions is over 400 miles away? Better yet, why create worry when the issue has nothing to do with you? It seems as if people today are always adopting other’s problems. It may be because they feel the need to identify with a situation or cause. There is always some reason for outrage if you want to be outraged. The question is why would anyone want to be in that state of mind? Does the anger make the worry that what happened in Ferguson may happen to

you go away? In most cases the answer is no. The emotions that come from picking up any hot topic usually creates more intense worry. The main reason being: your mind is trying to solve a situation that hasn’t happened so it can’t. These television news created worries can have you in your living room angry then scared as you deadbolt your front door. In truth, do people have time to worry or even think about other’s problems? If one wants to solve problems the majority of people have a plethora of their own that need looking into. Many people have children or siblings that may fit a stereotype marked for extinction. There is an old saying, clean up your house first. If people adopted this mantra maybe the need for high blood pressure medicine would decrease. People have to keep in mind for every negative television news event that happens there is a positive story to offset it. The positive news is often overlooked because the negative event is the lead story on the 6:00 news. One doesn’t have to look to the media for something positive. People can begin to look at nature to find something positive. There is harmony in the birds singing or the sun rising and setting. These examples may not seem as exciting as martial law being imposed in some far off place, but the thoughts are more pleasant.

The Counseling Corner

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

Breaking the chains that bind: The chain of self-indulgence (Week 4) “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 In the final installment of this series regarding Breaking the Chains That Binds, this writer will wrap up with the conclusion of the Chain of Ingratitude. As the Scripture notes above, Jesus healed ten lepers but only one returned to give thanks. This biblical narrative blatantly illustrates the sin of ingratitude. After the nine lepers’ demonstrated ingratitude to Jesus for their healing, Jesus seized the moment to teach the disciples two valuable lessons: 1. It does not take much faith to tap into the power of God. The disciples asked Jesus to increase their faith and Jesus made a parabolic statement about faith. The Greek expression Jesus used

in Luke 17:6 is not judgmental, rather it is affirming. “If you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘May you be uprooted and thrown into the sea,’ and it would obey you!” What Jesus was really saying to the disciples is: ‘you have faith, but what you need to do is live and act in faith.’ As is the case with most believers, we do not use nor live in the faith we have. Like these disciples, we think faith is a formula or ritualistic and it is not. Faith is personal and relational and it abides in the one in whom we trust. Jesus commended the one leper that returned to give thanks for his faith because he acted on what Jesus commanded him to do. From the reading of Luke’s narrative, this leper never heard Jesus preach a sermon nor ever heard Jesus teach; yet this leper demonstrated faith. Therefore, what Jesus was saying is it doesn’t take much faith to get in touch with the power of God. If we have

"I'm convinced of this: Good done anywhere is good done everywhere. For a change, start by speaking to people rather than walking by them like they're stones that don't matter. As long as you're breathing, it's never too late to do some good." - Maya Angelou

the faith the size of a mustard seed...then we must use it! 2. True gratitude calls us to go beyond what is merely expected! Many of us are so accustomed to doing the minimal, just enough to get by. The nine lepers who went to show themselves to the priests only did what Jesus commanded them to do, but the one who returned went beyond the call of duty. It was not a Jew, rather a Samaritan who returned. It was the one who was despised in his day. Yet, Jesus used this leper to teach the

world about gratitude! This Samaritan, when he saw he had been healed, returned, fell on his face and praised God. This leper could have kept going, like the other nine lepers, but he stopped, did an about-face, came back and fell at the feet of Jesus and gave glory to God. This writer believes this leper gave thanks and glorified God because of who he was! He was a leper – but after the healing, he was clean! This leper was ostracized, but after being healed he could return to his home and community! The leper’s cleansing was important, but his praise was that Jesus delivered him from what he was! Beloved, often we thank God for our achievements and successes, but we have not always been successes! Like this leper we must praise God we are no longer who we were! To neglect to give God thanks for His many blessings is like biting the hand that feeds you and slapping the face that saved

you. Like this leper when you know you have been released from your burdens and who it was that set you free…you too should be compelled to fall down and worship Jesus the Christ! To break the chain of ingratitude, remember to thank God for all things God has and does for you, large or small blessings, significant or seemingly insignificant blessings, and at ALL times walk in the spirit of gratitude! “Let all that I am praise the Lord; may I never forget the good things he does for me.” - Psalm 103:2 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.

High school students get a look at urban planning, GIS It’s a tool that can be used to track bat populations or help police pinpoint drug houses. And a group of local high school students spent part of their summer learning the many ways Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can be used in future careers. The students were part of a month-long Pre-Urban Planners Preparing for Urban Problems (PUPs) program, based in the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s School of Architecture and Urban Planning. The program is offered every summer. The program, now in its 12th year, gives Milwaukee high school students an opportunity to learn about careers in urban planning by getting directly involved in studying the concepts and doing neighborhood problem-solving activities. “It’s a good way to introduce young people to Urban Planning and GIS,” says William Huxhold, professor of architecture and urban planning and director of the program. “It’s a good way to

How to help aging parents manage medications (part 1 of 2) Cutting through clutter can safeguard loved ones' health

When medicine is a mess Your mother sees doctors for several chronic conditions, and her latest checkup has you concerned. Her blood pressure is back on the rise, and not only that, her diabetes is no longer under control. When you check her kitchen/medicine cabinet, instead of the neat row of Rx vials you’ve come to expect, you find chaos: half-empty vials of outdated drugs, unopened prescriptions still in the pharmacy wrapping, packs of over-the-counter remedies and supplements – and a plastic baggie filled with assorted loose pills in rainbow colors, like so many jellybeans. The touchy conversation that follows makes one thing clear – your mother needs help with her medication management. If you step up to take on that role, here’s how to get things sorted out. Make a list Start by playing detective

– teasing out which medications your parent really is (or isn’t) taking. That means not just asking about prescription drugs, but also over-thecounter products, vitamins and herbal supplements, says Joan Baird, director of pharmacy practice for the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists. The complete list should include both daily drugs and occasional remedies such as sleep or cold medicines. Look at labels A person could use a cough and cold syrup containing acetaminophen, not realizing that’s the same ingredient as Tylenol, Baird says. A little later, that person might feel achy and take a couple Tylenol tablets. That's just one example of drug duplication, or redundancy. You wouldn’t know that without reading labels, which could be challenging for people with vision problems or changes in comprehension. So you'll

want to be aware of ingredients for every product in your parent's medicine cabinet. Check with the pharmacist Once you’ve compiled the complete medication list, share it with your parent’s pharmacist, who can pick up on redundancies, potential interactions and side effects. For instance, your mother might take Tylenol PM to help her sleep. But the medicine contains diphenhydramine – the same ingredient as Benadryl – which can contribute to falls in seniors. Because older adults metabolize (break down) medications more slowly, drugs can hang out in their body lon-

ger, Baird says – and a drug that might make a younger person feel slightly tired the next day could leave a senior lightheaded when they get out of bed. Baird describes another risky scenario that can be avoided: “The patient is taking St. John’s wort, say, as an OTC supplement for depression, but is also taking Prozac. That would be a redundancy, and they can interact.” Clean up and streamline Multiple prescriptions from different doctors, so many pills on conflicting time schedules – it’s tempting to skip doses and easy to get confused. If a regimen is too complicated, other options usually exist, Baird says, such as switching to another drug in the same class or using extended-release alternatives for less-frequent dosing. On the other hand, with conditions such as cancer and HIV/AIDS, it may not be possible to alter complicated

drug regimens. Meanwhile, other drugs, like a heartburn medication, may no longer be needed, but the prescription just keeps getting refilled. Ask your parent’s geriatrician or other primary care provider what’s needed (and why) and what isn’t. Too much to swallow It can be daunting for anyone to polish off 20 or so pills at a time – even more so if you're a senior with swallowing problems. Jodi Wood, a registered nurse and owner of the Akron, Ohio, branch of Visiting Angels, a home health provider, suggests asking doctors if pills can be spread throughout the day or taken in a different way. “There are other avenues for medication administration,” she says. “Some things come in a liquid form. Some things can be crushed and sprinkled into pudding or food if that makes it easier.” Continued next week

It’s time for your kiddos to get back into the classroom and hit the books. As parents, you can help ensure a successful year by developing a regular schedule and teaching your kids healthy habits. But transitioning them from the laissez-faire attitude of summer to a disciplined routine isn’t always easy. Still, with just a little planning, you can implement these five healthy habits so your child can start the school year off on the right foot. 1. Develop a proper sleep schedule Studies have found that when children don’t get enough sleep, it can affect their school performance. Research has also shown that if you don’t get adequate hours of shuteye, it can lead to higher levels of appetitestimulating hormones and lower levels of hormones that tell people they're full. General sleep guidelines for school-age children are: • Ages 3 to 6 years: 10 to 12 hours per day • Ages 7 to 12 years: 10 to 11 hours per day • Ages 12 to 18 years: 8 to 9 hours per day Implementing a new bedtime is easier if you start a few week ahead, rather than waiting until the night before school begins. A regular bedtime routine – like reading a book or taking a warm bath – also helps your child know it’s time for bed, which can help minimize the dreaded “I don’t want to go to bed” argument. 2. Plan a meal-and-snack schedule Set times for each meal,

come more sedentary. Before they spend too much tushie time on the sofa, enroll them in an activity that gets them moving. Through its Shape Up NYC program, the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation offers free fitness classes such as Zumba, Pilates, yoga and aerobics every week at dozens of locations. Many cities offer similar programs, so check with your local community or recreation center.

Personal Finance & Business

By Jason Alderman Director of Visa’s financial education programs

Here's credit 101 for your college freshman To parents with a freshman entering college this fall: You're probably expecting to shell out major bucks for tuition, room and board and a million other necessities over the next few years. But before you send your kid off, make sure you share one gift likely to steer him or her along the road to financial security – a sound understanding of how credit works. You probably learned the hard way yourself that young adults encounter many unfamiliar expenses – and temptations – upon entering college or the workforce. So it's important to help your kids avoid early financial missteps that could damage their credit for years to come. The first step in managing personal finances is mastering the basic checking account and debit card. A few tips you can pass along: Look for a bank or credit union that charges no monthly usage fee, requires no minimum balance and has conveniently located ATMs

so you don't rack up foreign ATM charges. Enter all transactions in a check register or in a budgeting tool like Mint.com and review your account online at least weekly to verify when deposits, checks, purchases and automatic payments have cleared. Avoid writing checks or making debit card transactions unless your current balance will cover them – such transactions often clear instantly. A good way to build sound credit is to demonstrate responsible credit card use. But people under age 21 must have a parent or other responsible adult cosign credit card accounts unless they can prove sufficient income to repay the debt. So how can parents help their kids begin building a credit history if they can't open their own account? A couple of alternatives: Make them an authorized user on one of your accounts. They'll get their own

card and you can usually restrict the amount they're able to charge. Authorized users are not legally responsible to pay balances owed – that's your responsibility, so tread carefully. You can add them as a joint account holder to a new or existing account – preferably, one with a small credit limit. Joint account holders are equally liable to pay off the account. Just remember, any account activity, good or bad, goes on both your credit

reports, so careful account monitoring is critical. If your kids haven't yet demonstrated financial maturity they may not be ready for an unsecured credit card or loan. Other alternatives include: A secured credit card, where users can charge up to the amount deposited to open the account. Purchases are charged against the account's revolving credit limit. As they pay off the balance the available credit rises, just like a regular credit card.

After a period of on-time payments, ask the lender to convert it to an unsecured card, or to at least add an unsecured amount to the account. A prepaid debit card, where you load the card with money in advance and they use the card for purchases or ATM withdrawals. You monitor account activity online or by phone. With each, fees and restrictions may apply so shop around for the best terms. If you need help educating your kids about personal financial management, a good resource is What's My Score (www.whatsmyscore.org), a financial literacy program for young adults run by Visa Inc. It features a comprehensive workbook called Money 101: A Crash Course in Better Money Management, which can be downloaded for free. Bottom line: Getting your kids off on the right foot, credit-wise, can make all the difference to their future financial health.
