Grand Slam singles title

Alderman Russell W. Stamper, II invited Milwaukee residents to attend the “Arms Around Us” Community Call to Action and Resource Fair on Saturday, September 6, 2014 at the Fitzsimmonds Boys and Girls Club, 3400 W. North Avenue. Residents from the Metcalfe Park, Amani and Sherman Park neighborhoods, gathered along with Milwaukee Police officers and several elected officials to participate in the Building Neighborhood Capacity Program, a federal initiative to promote healthy neighborhoods. Participants wore Arms around Us t-shirts and colored wristbands while others wore white t-shirts with black, green and red letters that read, “I am Amani United and Proud.” The group marched from the Fitzsimmonds Boys and Girls Club west on North Ave., to N. 35th Street. Ald. Russell Stamper, II wearing a bright orange t-shirt, with a bullhorn in hand, led 150 or more people shouting: “We stand together.

We walk together. This is our community. Let’s take it back.” After the march, participants settled back eating hot dogs, hamburgers and face painting.

Serena Williams Serena Williams ended a difficult-for-her Grand Slam season in the best way possible, winning her third consecutive U.S. Open title by beating Caroline Wozniacki 6-3, 6-3 on Sunday, September 7, 2014.

Williams equaled Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova with 18 major singles titles, the fourth-most in history. Williams also matched Evert's total of six cham-

pionships at the U.S. Open and became the first woman to win three in a row since Evert's four-title run from 1975-78.

Williams earned a $4 million winner's check, a record in tennis — $3 million for the title, plus a $1 million bonus for having had the best results during the North American summer hardcourt circuit.

Northwestern Mutual announces start on new downtown corporate headquarters On August 26, 2014, Northwestern Mutual Chairman and CEO John Schlifske and Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett announced the official start of construction on the Northwestern Mutual Tower and Commons in downtown Milwaukee. The new building project will preserve 1100 jobs and add 1900 new ones. Schlifske stated Milwaukee is a place for economic growth and job creation opportunities for residents. Representatives from various community groups, education institutions, business leaders and local political leaders took part in the ceremony. Northwestern Mutual has hired more than 70 Wisconsin based companies including more than three dozen small business enterprises.

Being Frank There are certain events that take place without fail to announce the fall season.

The NFL football season starts at the beginning of September. Children head back to school around Labor Day. There is the annual march to stop violence or reclaim neighborhoods in the African American community. The yearly traditions keep repeating themselves over and over.

The NFL kicked off the 16 week American Revolution where 32 city-states go to war with one another. For the next six months the vast majority of Americans will watch NFL teams play for 60 minutes, then relive the action for seven days. The battle for football supremacy will end when one contestant holds up the fabled Lombardi Trophy. Then the fans will go through withdrawals from football for five months until the season begins again.

The blessed children re-

The rites of autumn

turn to school. This yearly rite of passage is always viewed with optimism. Children are sent off to freshly clean marble palaces to enlarge their knowledge base.

The majority of children will have on new clothes for the first few days. School staff may even smile for a week or two. It is the beginning of a nine-month trek for students and staff that ends in the promotion of the child.

The children and staff will then take a well-earned break before the next school year begins anew.

Unlike the NFL and school starting the marches have no ending. A march has no winner or promotion to the next grade. The social reasons that lead to the formation of a march are the same. These issues have been the same for decades. One of the key issues that have led to marches has been violence in the African American community.

The last march held was fo-

cused on taking the community back. The million-dollar question is, from whom?

There were several hundred people who marched and stood on 35th Street September 6, 2014. These people were using the fabled march tactic to make a change in their community. The focal point of the march was to unite to take back their community. The one question no one wanted to answer was,

Rebuilding our Community By Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D.

Special for the Milwaukee Times

Let’s do a selfie It is all the rage these days, but it is nothing new... people taking photographs of themselves. The greatest difference today is that is easier to do since the creation of smartphones, digital cameras and webcams.

Unlike the past, when people used a camera that had a timer, attached it to a tripod; placed it on a shelf or table top. You would then set the timer and hurry to get in front of the camera before the timer would go off and the photo was taken. Or better yet attend the fair or amusement park and go into one of those photo booths and get some black and whites done.

That certainly made our day.

Nowadays, all a person has to do is to hold their smartphone about an arm’s length or pointed at a mirror and start taking photos. You can choose your background, who's in it with you and location. And those photos can be instantly uploaded to a number of social networking services such as Facebook, Google+, Instagram, Snapchat, Tumbir, and Twitter.

A lot of older Americans don’t get what is behind the rise in interest in this strange phenomenon. But I certain-

ly can tell you, it continues to grow in popularity, especially among the 18-34 age demographic. My view is not alone; in fact major industries, business and governments have all taken notice as well. For them it is about new markets, advertisement and future consumers. A number of new companies have emerged and are benefiting from the use of this new technology.

The real question is why do people take selfies? The psychological factors vary, but could include: to get attention from as many people as possible; to get a self-esteem boost; to show off; to get a specific person’s attention; boredom, or perhaps some fun. There is meaning behind why we do it, and why it has become such a massive trend. And those meanings vary and may include as a way to stay connected

with family, interest among friends, colleagues or to capture a special moment in time as it happens.

Today, taking a selfie is mainstream and part of our daily lives.

Its reemergence and widespread use is changing how we think and feel about the community, world, family and ourselves. These selfportraits in these moments of time are also helping us to cope with what others think as well. It is helping us to see the world through a whole new light and giving voice and self-expression to a new generation. But in all cases, a selfie captures what it sees and sometimes that in itself is the truth. How about this, isn’t it time to take a selfie with your community in the background? Now, hold that pose... No duck lips please!!!

from whom?

Who is this enemy these people feel they have to take their community back from?

Have the Russians landed and taken over Washington Park? Has the Taliban infiltrated 35th Street and put up barricades? Who is the enemy these people have to be free from? The answer is one of their own making.

The answer is the children, teens and young adults in Milwaukee. Are these people ready to take the steps to regain the community?

The problems in these areas are people some residents have known for years.

Some of the problems live with many of those who marched. Some may be neighbors who have looked out for the victims before.

Are the residents ready to truly take back their neighborhoods by getting rid of

these people? Many are fine when the police drag off someone else’s child but the rules change when it’s their loved one.

It’s time to face the truth.

Residents in a community usually know who and where the problem is. Many parents look at their child and turn a blind eye when they see what their offspring is up to.

Have you seen a parent on television announcing to the world they just turned their child in to the police? How many parents refuse to buy the clothing that labels children freaks or thugs? How many residents report criminal hot spots to the police?

Exactly.

The choice of how to kick off fall is up to you. The NFL is always an option. School for the children is always a great start. If you own stock in Nike the marchers will keep your pockets full wearing out their shoes, which makes for a nice Christmas.

Christian Times

The Counseling Corner

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

The future is now! Connecting with the young adult generation (Week 2) This month this writer is addressing the topic of why there is a disconnect of the church with its young adult generation. Some churches have been successful; while others are struggling to reach and understand this group of church goers. The attitude of most young adults is their church is not accessible to them. If the faith community and church leaders are desirous of attracting, connecting with and retaining young adults, there must be a change in the attitude of church leaders. Young adults must be treated with the same respect as adults are treated.

Last week this writer began outlining the reasons for the disconnect. The research was the result of a five-year program headed by Barna Group president David Kinnaman who explored the opportunities and challenges of faith development among teens and young adults within a rapidly shifting culture.

The findings of the research are included in the book by Kinnaman titled: “You Lost

Me: Why Young Christians Are Leaving Church and Rethinking Church.” Reasons 3 -5 are summarized this week.

Reason #3 – Young Christians’ church experiences related to sexuality are often simplistic, judgmental. With unfettered access to digital pornography and immersed in a culture that values hyper-sexuality over wholeness, teen and twenty-something Christians are struggling with how to live meaningful lives in terms of sex and sexuality. One of the significant tensions for many young believers is how to live up to the church's expectations of chastity and sexual purity in this culture, especially as the age of first marriage is now commonly delayed to the late twenties.

Seventeen percent of young Christians said they “have made mistakes and feel judged in church because of them.”

Reason #4 – They wrestle with the exclusive nature of Christianity. Younger Americans have been shaped by a culture that esteems

open-mindedness, tolerance and acceptance. Three out of 10 young Christians (29 percent) said “churches are afraid of the beliefs of other faiths” and an identical proportion felt they are “forced to choose between my faith and my friends.” Twentytwo percent of young adults with a Christian background said “church is like a country club, only for insiders.”

Reason #5 – The church feels unfriendly to those who doubt. Young adults with Christian experience say the church is not a place that allows them to express doubts. They do not feel safe admitting sometimes Christianity does not make sense.

Some of the perceptions in this regard include not being able “to ask my most pressing life questions in church” (36 percent) and having “significant intellectual doubts about my faith” (23 percnet). In a related theme of how churches struggle to help young adults who feel marginalized, about 1 out of every 6 young adults with a Christian background said

their faith “does not help with depression or other emotional problems” they experience.

The research pointed to two opposites, but equally dangerous responses by many faith leaders and parents: either catering to or minimizing the concerns of the next generation. The study suggests some leaders ignore the concerns and issues of teens and twentysomethings because they feel the disconnection will end when young adults are older. Yet, this response misses the dramatic technological, social and spiritual changes that have occurred over the last 25 years and ignores the significant present-day challenges these young adults are facing.

Beloved, the assumption has been if a congregation is interested in reconnecting with young adults the church must make a few updates such as installing a coffee shop in the fellowship hall and having the pastor preach in skinny jeans. While a few updates are needed to

replace outdated technology and ministry methods utilized by many congregations, most young adults, like any generation before them, are primarily searching for acceptance for who they are and the contributions they bring to the table and to the faith community. If church leaders are seriously eager to bring back and connect with this age group, church leaders must sit down and really talk with these young adults in a non-judgmental, compassionate manner about what they are looking for.

The answers just may surprise you.

What’s Happening?

New Report: Wisconsin #1 in racial disparities

Unsurprising but important report confirms what people of color in Milwaukee already knew Milwaukee community leaders have been speaking out about racial disparities and the struggles of hardworking, well-meaning African American families to get ahead for decades. Now, a new report from the Wisconsin Council on Children & Families (WCCF) confirms that Wisconsin has the largest gap between the wellbeing of white and black children in the country.

While the well-being of white children in Wisconsin ranks tenth nationally, the well-being of Latino children ranks seventeenth, Asian

children are thirty-seventh, African American children rank a horrendous 46th – a full thirty places lower than white children. This disparity is by far the worst in the country.

The WCCF report, Race for Results: Wisconsin’s Need to Reduce Racial Disparities, highlights disturbing realities that are hurting Wisconsin’s children. The report contains rankings in numerous categories of well-being, including high school graduation, family and community income, math and reading proficiency, and family edu-

cation. In addition to rankings, the report also highlights some key facts: • Eighty percent of black children live in households below 200 percent of the poverty level, compared to thirty percent of Wisconsin’s white children.

• White adults in Wisconsin, age 25 to 29, are three times as likely to have an associate’s degree or higher, compared to their African American or Latino peers.

• White children are nearly six times more likely to be proficient in eighth grade math than black children.

The report paints a bleak picture of the lack of opportunity for children of color in Wisconsin and their barriers to receiving quality education and employment. Ken Taylor, the executive director of the Wisconsin Council on Children & Families, says these disparities must be addressed quickly.

“Dramatic racial disparities are hurting Wisconsin’s communities and our economy,” says Taylor. “Allowing these disparities to continue hurts us all, and our state’s leaders must renew their focus on reducing this gap.”

The report does lay out policy proposals and ideas to address Wisconsin’s racial disparities, including engaging families and communities most affected by disparities, analyzing major investments to effectively use limited resources, and ensuring that different programs aimed at reducing inequality are working corroboratively.

Wisconsin Council on Children & Families is a nonprofit, non-partisan statewide advocacy organization.

The full report can be found online at their website, www. wccf.org.

Fourth Annual Louie M. Adams Educational Fair: “Lifting as we climb”

The Kappa Phi Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. presented the 4th Annual Louie M. Adams Back to School Educational Fair. The men of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Incorporated, Kappa Phi Chapter recognize the need for positive role models in each and every community. As a result, we are dedicating our time and efforts to help the youth in our communities.

The event began at 10 a.m., on Saturday, August 30, 2014 on North 2nd St. between W. Center and W. Clarke Streets. It is our goal to equip students with the basic necessities in order to become productive in the classroom. In 2013, we were able to donate 612 book bags filled with supplies. In addition, we were able to feed 880 guests and provided haircuts to 120 young men. The primary target zip codes were 53212 and 53205. Statistics show that the two zip codes serviced, which consist of 22,708 residents, 48.3 percent are living below the poverty line. It is not only our duty, it is our responsibility to support our youth.

This year we have increased the number of educational booths as well as increased our overall distribution of school supplies. Our keynote speaker was District 2 County Supervisor Khalif Rainey. In addition, we also had a return visit from the Milwaukee Tumblers, US Colored Troop F-29th Infantry Regiment, Milwaukee Fire Department, Milwaukee Health Department, and many, many, more surprises.

Event Co-Chair Marcel A. Clarke shared, “The Louie M. Adams Back to School Educational Fair is a platform for displaying the importance of education. Additionally, this event gives our students an opportunity to begin the school year with the necessary essentials for a productive school year and a sense of confidence.”

By Dr. James Wadley, BDO Relationship Expert

Eight red flags you may be dating a sociopath

There is an unfortunate trend and buzz that has emerged across the national landscape as it relates to relationships. The recent events of a few professional athletes have shed additional light upon domestic violence, skewed relational roles/responsibilities, and how power manifests itself among couples. Fragile egos, poor conflict negotiation skills, inadequate anger management skills and feelings of entitlement prevent couples from being able to sustain healthy relationships.

A sociopath is someone who just doesn’t care about himself/herself or others. I was recently asked if there are sociopathic signs that one should look out for and give credence to BEFORE something violent occurs.

Here are eight dating signs that you should be sensitive

to before getting into a longterm relatonship: 1. Oppositional or aggressive behavior.

If your partner routinely says “No” with an attitude or aggressively confronts you about an issue, then you have been forewarned.

Verbal, physical, or sexual confrontation/coercion towards you, his/her family, friends, strangers or animals are warning signs that should not be ignored.

2. Property destruction, disregard for another per-

son’s belongings, or vandalism are all considered to be sociopathic behavior.

If your partner has ever busted out your windows, keyed your car, slashed your tires, set fire to your clothes, or attempted to maim your pet, you should reconsider the viability of remaining in the relationship.

3. Repeated lying (by disclosure or omission), manipulation, or theft should let you know that your partner/potential partner may be a sociopath.

Making excuses for your partner by believing that some lies are okay or not that grand may only enable the behavior to become worse.

4. Deception by rule violation (e.g., not going to work/school or frequent tardiness).

We all have rules to follow in our homes and our jobs and if a person is unable to adhere to those explicit guidelines and norms, then there exists the possibility that they may not have high regards for their life circumstance, themselves or you.

5. A failure to plan and/ or chronic impulsivity.

These “free spirited” folks sometimes have difficulty and rebuke structure. A failure or unwillingness to plan only invites chaos and disorganization. Heightened impulsivity is the main ingredient to not thinking logically and pragmatically about how to solve issues. Beware.

6. Reckless behavior

and/or indifference to one’s own or other’s safety.

Aggressive driving, risk taking behavior or not caring about how his/her actions affect you may make your relationship fertile territory for sociopathic behavior.

7. Failure to honor personal or financial obligations.

Someone who fails/refuses to pick up his/her children from school, pay his/ her bills, or routinely breaks promises may show that same disregard in a romantic relationship.

8. A general lack of compassion, empathy, or remorse about wrong doing can also be considered a symptom of sociopathy.

If you are in a relationship where a person demonstrates four or more of the items mentioned, then you should consider whether or not your relationship will be healthy enough for you to survive in.

Low carb vs. low fat: Which is better for weight loss?

They say changing what you eat is the most important part of a weight loss plan, but with so many fad diets and food claims it’s a challenge just to figure out what to eat anymore! When it comes to the great debate of which is better for weight loss – a low-carbohydrate diet versus a low-fat diet – findings from a new study show one is better for your waistline and also possibly your heart.

According to a report from Reuters, researchers have found that when combined with proper nutritional counseling people on lowcarb diets can lose nearly three times more weight and possibly decrease their risk factors for heart disease.

Dr. Lydia Bazzano, a pro-

fessor at the Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine and the study’s lead author, said, “This study shows if you are overweight and have cardiovascular disease risk factors and haven’t had success on other diets, certainly a lowcarbohydrate diet is worth a try.” However, she cautions, “This isn’t a license to hit the butter and meat fats, but even very high-fat diets can be healthy.”

Carbohydrates include whole grains like brown rice and whole oats, refined grains like white bread, fruits, vegetables, beans and legumes. Carbs can also be found in the sugar in processed food and in milk.

The year-long study published in the Annals of Internal

Medicine this week randomly assigned 148 obese men and women between the ages of 22 and 75 to either a low-fat or low-carb diet.

The low-carb group was instructed to have less than 40 grams of digestible carbs each day and the low-fat group had a limit of no more than 30 percent of their daily calories from fat. Both groups kept their pre-trial

physical activity levels.

Each group also received nutrition counseling about how to read food labels, how to order at restaurants, portion control and general healthy eating habits.

At the end of the study, the low-carb dieters had lost an average of 12 pounds compared to the average 4 pounds lost by the low-fat group.

The researchers did not find any increase in LDL, or “bad” cholesterol, in either group. The low-carb group, however, did have lower levels of fat in their blood.

Although the low-carb group performed well in this study, Dr. Bazzano cautions, “This isn’t a license to hit the butter and meat fats, but even very high-fat diets can be healthy.”

Personal Finance & Business

By Jason Alderman Director of Visa’s financial education programs

Under 26? Should you stay on your parent's health insurance?

In their quest to land a job, any job, many young adults will sacrifice what used to be called "fringe benefits" to gain a foot in the door. But many entry-level jobs either offer no healthcare benefits, or the employee's cost share is prohibitive for someone barely making minimum wage. Add to the equation that most twenty-somethings are in good health and rarely visit the doctor and it's easy to see why many will forego health insurance in favor of paying other bills.

But that's a dangerous choice. One serious accident or illness can rack up thousands of dollars in bills. In fact, over half of all personal bankruptcies result from unpaid medical bills. Plus, there's usually a tax penalty for going uninsured.

Fortunately, since the Affordable Care Act (ACA) rolled out, young adults now have more health insurance options than before. In ad-

dition to buying coverage through their employer (if offered), people under age 26 may also choose to enroll in their parent's plan, even if they're married or no longer a dependent, or to buy an individual plan through the health insurance marketplace.

If you're currently without coverage or want to explore better options, this is the perfect time to start researching what's available. Here's why: For most employer-sponsored benefit plans, the open enrollment period to sign up for 2015 benefits happens in the next few months. Watch for communications from your own employer and ask your parents to do likewise if their company provides dependent health coverage.

ACA's 2015 open enrollment period is November 15, 2014 to February 15, 2015.

With both employer plans and ACA, if you miss open enrollment you'll have to wait until the following year to apply unless: you're applying for Medicaid; you qualify for a special enrollment period because of a family status change (e.g., marriage, divorce, birth of child); or you lose your current coverage.

Another good reason to enroll in a healthcare plan is the so-called individual mandate, an ACA regulation that says most people must maintain health insurance with

minimum essential coverage for themselves and their dependents or be subject to a penalty for non-compliance.

Certain people, like those whose income falls below the federal poverty line, are exempt from the penalty. But keep in mind that even if you opt to forego insurance and pay the penalty, you'll still be responsible for all your healthcare expenses. For more information, go to www.healthcare. gov/exemptions.

If your parent's plan offers dependent coverage, they can add you until you turn 26, even if you are: married; not living with your parents; attending school; eligible for worse coverage through your own employer; or not financially dependent on your parent. If they're already covering other dependents, there may be little or no cost to add you to their plan. Plus,

they can generally pay the premium using pretax dollars if it's an employer-provided plan.

Other coverage options include: • Those under 30 can buy a catastrophic health plan designed to financially protect against worst-case scenarios like a serious accident or illness. For information, search "catastrophic" at www. healthcare.gov.

• If you can't afford your employer's insurance and your income falls below certain levels, you may qualify for a tax credit that reduces the cost of ACA plan coverage.

In addition, many states expanded eligibility for their Medicaid programs under the ACA, meaning you could earn more and now qualify for Medicaid. To learn more about subsidies and Medicaid eligibility, search "income levels" at www.healthcare. gov.

Black women are the only demographic not gaining jobs

African American women are the only demographic in the United States whose unemployment rate has not improved over the past year, according to a National Women's Law Center analysis of the latest jobs data.

The overall unemployment rate dropped from 7.2 percent to 6.1 percent between August 2013 and August

2014, and women's unemployment rate dropped from 6.2 percent to 5.7 percent, the NWLC noted. During that same time, however, the unemployment rate for black women remained stagnant at 10.6 percent.

Unemployment for black men, meanwhile, fell nearly three points, from 13.4 percent to 10.8 percent, accord-

ing to the NWLC report, which looked at figures released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday, September 5, 2014.

Joan Entmacher, vice president for family economic security at the NWLC, said the stagnant job situation for black women is a "red flag" in the most recent employment data.

The problem is not a lack of education, Entmacher told The Huffington Post in an interview. The NWLC did a comparison of adults with bachelor's degrees across all demographics, and black women still had the highest unemployment rate of any other group with equivalent education. "There's something else going on here," she said.

One possible factor holding African American women back from gaining jobs, Entmacher said, is that they are disproportionately employed in the public sector, because state and local governments have historically offered more equitable employment opportunities for women

and people of color than the private sector. But the public sector is experiencing much slower job recovery than the private sector due to budget cuts.

"Public sector jobs are slower to recover because public policy has been to cut or freeze funding for all levels of government over the past few years," she said. "After the recovery began, there was an emphasis on reducing the deficit and shrinking the government at a time when that was really damaging to the economy."

Recovery has been slow for all demographics, but black women are the only group that does not seem to be bouncing back at all, Entmacher said.

"Lawmakers must act to promote a stronger -- and more widely shared -- recovery,” she said.

“In Remembrance of Emmett Till” by Darryl Mace

c.2014, University Press of Kentucky $40.00 / $50.00 Canada 214 pages What can you say about tragedy?

When it’s imminent, you brace yourself and hope to come out unscathed. In its aftermath, you mourn and, eventually, you move on, healed… but not quite ever the same.

Still, what, exactly, can you say about tragedy? Plenty, as you’ll see in the book “In Remembrance of Emmett Till” by Darryl Mace, and the strongest words come from influential places.

Mamie Till-Mobley was born in Mississippi but, when she was just two years old, her family joined the Great Migration and settled in Chicago. They left a state where lynching was “an alltoo-common experience for

blacks” and segregation was a way of life. Things were different in Illinois; there was still racism, but it wouldn’t likely kill anyone.

In this less-tumultuous place, Emmett Louis Till was born and raised and, due to his Chicago upbringing, “could not understand what it was like to be black in Mississippi.” Still, as was the habit of many Midwestern African American families at that time, 14-year-old Emmett was sent to spend the summer with an uncle in the south.

It was a tragic mistake.

In the days following August 31, 1955, when Emmett Till’s body was pulled from the Tallahatchie River, “print media outlets… sprang into action” to report “yet another senseless murder of a black male…” Publications – both mainstream and black – leaped on the story in days to follow, reporting on “indifference” from Mississippi officials, lack of outrage from white Mississippians at the murder, and the ensuing trial at which the defendants were observed laughing.

Interestingly, Mace says that mainstream Midwestern newspapers covered the story differently than did papers in the West and Northeast.

African American publications, particularly from the Midwest, also had understandably different angles.

They were, he says, the ones to keep the story alive long

after the trial ended.

“At the time,” Mace further adds, “whites in the Deep South could not see that with his death Emmett Till sowed the seeds of change that would sprout forth into the modern civil rights movement.

"Regardless of race, Americans… and these members of the Emmett Till generation would change the very nature of race relations in the United States.”

I struggled some with “In Remembrance of Emmett Till.”

Part of the problem is that this book is more academic than I expected; there were times when I was riveted by the information author Darryl Mace uncovered, while other pages made me want to just shelve it awhile.

There’s a good sense of time and context here, though, and that helped.

Mace gives readers ample opportunity to understand why Till’s violent death wasn’t just “another senseless murder;” why the U.S. was ripe for Civil Rights progress made in the decade after his slaying; and how the press, especially sixty years ago, served its public.

Scholars and historians may appreciate more from this book than most, but Mace’s thoroughness will get you through if you casually want to tackle it anyhow. Try “In Remembrance of Emmett Till,” and see what you have to say.
