Milwaukee business leaders rally to support proposed downtown streetcar

Photo by Robert Bell

On Monday, February 9, 2015, a day before the Milwaukee Common was scheduled to vote on the streetcar project being proposed for downtown Milwaukee and the city's east side, a contingent of local business leaders declared their support for the $124 million project publicly during a press conference held at the Manpower headquarters in downtown Milwaukee. Members of the coalition included Linda Gorens-Levey, managing partner of Stark Investments; Greg Wesley, partner at Gonzalez Saggio & Harlan; Jorge Franco, president of the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Wisconsin; and Greg Marcus, president of the Marcus Corp. “We support the proposed streetcar because it makes economic sense as part of a larger growth strategy for Milwaukee that is already generating billions of new development and thousands of jobs for our community, said Jeff Joerres, executive director of Manpower Group. The project was approved by the Council on a 9-6 vote. Voting in favor of the measure were Aldermen Ashanti Hamilton, Bob Bauman, Willie Wade, Jose Perez, Russell Stamper, Common Council President Michael Murphy, Nik Kovac, Terry Witkowski and Milele Coggs. Anxious to see the project move forward, Mayor Tom Barrett signed the legislation during an afternoon press conference. Opponents of the project are collecting signatures to force a referendum on the streetcar proposal.

Rep. Gwen Moore selected as ranking member on the House Monetary Policy and Trade Subcommittee On January 23, 2014 Congresswoman Gwen Moore (WI-04) was selected to serve as the ranking member on the House Monetary Policy and Trade Subcommittee. The Subcommittee oversees domestic monetary policy and related agencies, as well as multilateral development and finance organizations such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. Congresswoman Moore was also selected to serve on the Subcommittee on Housing and Insurance, responsible for overseeing federal insurance regulation, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the Government National Mortgage Association. The Congresswoman released the following statement: "I take great pride and honor in assuming my new role as ranking member on the Monetary Policy and Trade Subcommittee. I am deeply appreciative to have the trust and confidence

Rep. Gwen Moore of my congressional colleagues as I undertake this great responsibility. "As our country continues to rebound from the financial crisis, it is critical that we maximize on our current economic momentum in a fashion that further fosters commercial growth and supports job creation. Accordingly, as ranking member, one of the most effective ways to pursue this objective is through

our continued support of the Export-Import Bank and the billions of dollars in economic activity it drives each year. As America’s official export credit agency, this vital institution strengthens our global economic standing by financing U.S. exports in circumstances where alternative, private financing is unavailable. "In my new role as ranking member, I’d like to continue pursuing these national priorities, while also focusing on our capacity to address pressing global concerns through economic development and trade. Tackling difficult issues like universal access to education, health care, and financing calls for strong global partners, sound policy recommendations, and a stable international financial system. In that spirit, I look forward to working with stakeholders like the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund in our shared goal to make this world a more prosperous place for all global citizens."

SDC offers free tax preparation

Income-qualified families are eligible for free services The Social Development Commission announced today that it is offering FREE tax preparation services at all three of its sites, to households earning less than $56,000 annually. The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program is available to Milwaukee County residents from January 20 through April 15, 2015, at SDC’s Chase Avenue, Richards Street and Teutonia Avenue sites. All sites can prepare a limited number of tax returns each day, so services are available on a first come, first serve basis. “We are pleased to be the lead agency for these important tax preparation services,” said George Hinton, Chief Executive Officer of SDC. “One of SDC’s overarching goals is to help move people out of poverty and tax returns are just one strategy to facilitate that. The IRS estimates that one out of five individuals that qualify for unearned income tax credits don’t claim them or other deductions such as Homestead Credit. We want to assist our community and, in the process of helping them prepare taxes, help ensure they receive monies due them.” In addition to providing free tax preparation, all of the SDC tax preparation are ‘super sites,’ which means that other services are also available. Health insurance enrollment and public ben-

efits applications and renewals assistance is available by certified staff from health center partners. Financial institutions are also on site at SDC Super Sites to give clients the opportunity to open bank accounts and obtain other financial and asset building opportunities. The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program is a project of the Milwaukee Asset Building Coalition (MABC). VITA assists lowincome Milwaukee County residents achieve financial independence through education, planning and income development. The Social Development Commission is the lead agency for MABC. When filing joint tax returns, both individuals must be present, and valid picture IDs are required. For a list of other items to bring, go to www.cr-sdc.org or call (414)963-2694.

Students in Wisconsin deserve a better budget

Every two years, the governor of the State of Wisconsin delivers a budget address. This address is important because it defines the funding priorities for Wisconsin. It’s a symbol of what the governor feels is important to keep Wisconsin moving forward. Wisconsin educators were paying close attention for any hints of what might be contained in Governor Scott Walker’s budget. In order to sustain the basic quality of education in the state, educators knew they needed a funding increase that at least kept up with the rate of inflation. When the cost to educate students rises faster than funding, schools are forced to make difficult choices that may be unsustainable. Earlier this month, Wisconsin Governor Scott

Walker unveiled his proposed 2016-17 biennial budget to a joint session of the Wisconsin Legislature. The $68.2 billion budget contains details on Governor Walker’s priorities for the next two years. As the time for the release of the Governor’s budget drew closer, the rumor began to leak out that funding would be flat and districts began to look at what options would do the least harm to the classroom. When Governor Walker unveiled his proposed budget earlier this month, school districts around the state were surprised. Not only was there no increase to keep up with inflation, per-pupil funding was actually cut by $150 per student in every school district in Wisconsin. The proposed cuts total $127 million. This budget has school districts from across the state concerned about the impact this budget has on students. The impact for Milwaukee Public Schools is an outright cut of $12.1 million in aid for the 2015-16 school year. In addition, due to increasing costs associated with edu-

Michael Bonds, Ph.D. cating students, the district’s cost to continue budget was already projected to be $11 million short. As we build the MPS budget, we’ll make every effort to keep the impact of the Governor’s budget cuts as far from the classroom as possible. The governor’s budget also proposes ending the popular Chapter 220 program which has successfully promoted integration for more than 20 years in a metropolitan area that is one of the most segregated in the entire country. Chapter 220 allows white suburban students to enroll in MPS and minority students from MPS to attend suburban schools. Details of

how the Chapter 220 program would end are unclear. Governor Walker’s proposed budget also removes local control from all 424 public school districts in Wisconsin by establishing a statewide charter school authorization board. This bypasses locally elected school boards and the citizens who elected them. The Governor did propose spending additional resources in one area of education – removing the enrollment cap statewide on the voucher program. His plan would force public school districts statewide to pay for the expansion by reducing general state aid to public schools, which takes even more dollars out of public school classrooms. If you are concerned about the budget, call the Wisconsin Legislative Hotline at 1-800-362-9472. Let your representatives know public schools need the financial tools to be successful for all students.

Being Frank

Once again it is Black History Month. The I Have a Dream speech will be heard once or twice. Many Americans will rush to see Selma to acknowledge the struggle blacks went through in this country. There are even people who will walk the paths of the Civil Rights marches. All of these things are wonderful; but what results have come from the existence of Black History Month? For 28 days of each year it is okay for black people to study their history. More radical thinking people have always complained that Black History Month was the shortest month. This may be a result of the fact that it seems as if African Americans have a short memory. That concept is for another article. Today we’re talking about the results gained over the years from Black History Month. Any results from Black History Month over the last two decades are borderline pathetic. The whole concept of Black History Month is a farce. Any race of people worth their salt doesn’t need a month to celebrate who they are or where they came from. Most thinking races already live and learn from their past every day to propel

them into the future. The African American seems ashamed to even think about their history. The only reason many African Americans acknowledge Black History Month is because it was deemed okay by society. If the month concept did not have government approval it would not exist. The results of having Black History Month have been an abject failure. Many will say that this is a harsh judgment but it’s reality. What has been accomplished for advancement of the African American community? Nothing. Many people will balk at this assessment but the results tell the story. The African American community is in a shambles. The males don’t know they're men. The females think they're men, physically and mentally. The children are becoming public menaces and harlots. But African Americans have their hallowed 28 days of history. To use a texting phrase: LOL. The African American male is so far gone there isn’t enough space in the Milwaukee Times to detail. The loss of manhood hundreds of years ago has ensured the feminization of the African American male. This is

much more than a physical act, it's mental. The loss of the ability to think like a man has cost the African American male dearly. The direct result of this is the loss of status in society and the African American female mind. The African American female is gone, just not as far as the male. There is one word that summarizes how insane the African American female has gone: weave. Weave is that magic substance that has the majority of females in the African American community with hair down their backs. Weave, wigs, lace front all equal fake. If your concept of beauty and womanhood ties to something fake then what more can be said? There is no need to belabor the point talking about the African American child. What kind of offspring can be expected from neutered men and women whose scalps never breathe? Exactly. The degradation of the African American has reached an all time high. In the last two decades African Americans have become something many of the scholars celebrated in the month wouldn’t recognize. Can you imagine Martin Luther King, Jr., walking into a public school or watching

Black Lives Matter By publicly hanging a 'Black Lives Matter' banner on their historic church, the First Unitarian Society of Milwaukee is affirming the importance of this movement to inspire systemic change. Interim Senior Minister Elaine Peresluha and Associate Minister Dena McPhetres are adding their voices to the outraged in their blog posts about the Black Lives Matter movement. They are engaging the members of the First Unitarian Church in conversation, as well. The Rev. Peresluha states, “Why must we join the conversation, as a church with a majority white membership? Because a dominant white culture holds the power to define reality, the engagement and support of white Americans is essential to change the current reality. This nation—and Milwaukee in particular as a place suffering so

greatly from social inequality and injustices—needs strong intercultural alliances engaging in social action, challenging the system to transform. Bringing different voices together to inspire change requires honesty, vulnerability, and the commitment to keep showing up in order to build true community.”

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

African American History Month: Raising cultural awareness (Week 2) Americans have seen and witnessed just this past year the resurgence of peaceful protests and marches after the deaths of unarmed African Americans at the hands of law enforcement. Americans have taken to the streets to stand up for the cause of injustice everywhere. Fiftytwo years ago the famous March on Washington took place on August 28, 1963. The March on Washington was the largest demonstration ever seen in the nation’s capital and one of the first to have extensive coverage by the major television stations at the time. What spurred the March on Washington in 1963 was the racial unrest and the nationwide outrage sparked by media coverage of police actions in Birmingham, Alabama where attack dogs and fire hoses were used to turn back protestors, many of whom were in their early teens or younger. Dr. Martin Luther

King, Jr., was arrested and jailed during these protests in Birmingham where he wrote his famous “Letter From Birmingham City Jail,” which advocated for civil disobedience against unjust laws. The Coalition The March on Washington represented a coalition of several civil rights organizations, all of which generally had different approaches and different agendas. The “Big Six” organizers were James

Farmer, of the Congress of Racial Equality (“CORE”); Martin Luther King, Jr., of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (“SCLC”); John Lewis, of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (“SNCC”); A. Philip Randolph, of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters; Roy Wilkins, of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (“NAACP”); and Whitney Young, Jr., of

the National Urban League. The stated demands of the March were the passage of meaningful civil rights legislation; the elimination of racial segregation in public schools; protection for demonstrators against police brutality; a major public-works program to provide jobs; the passage of a law prohibiting racial discrimination in public and private hiring; a $2 an hour minimum wage; and self-government for the District of Columbia, which had a black majority. The March on Washington Nobody was sure how many people would turn up for the demonstration in Washington, D.C. Some travelling from the South were harassed and threatened. But on August 28, 1963, an estimated quarter of a million people—about a quarter of whom were white—marched from the Washington Monument to the Lincoln Memorial, in what turned out to be

both a protest and a communal celebration. The heavy police presence turned out to be unnecessary, as the March was noted for its civility and peacefulness. The March was extensively covered by the media, with live international television coverage. The event included musical performances by Marian Anderson, Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Mahalia Jackson, Peter, Paul and Mary, and Josh White. Charlton Heston, representing a contingent of artists including Harry Belafonte, Marion Brando, Diahann Carroll, Ossie Davis, Sammy Davis, Jr., Lena Horne, Paul Newman and Sidney Poitier, read a speech by James Baldwin. The speakers included all of the "Big Six" civilrights leaders (James Farmer, who was imprisoned in Louisiana at the time, had his speech read by Floyd McKissick); Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish religious leaders; and labor leader Walter Reuther. The one female speaker was Josephine Baker, who introduced several "Negro Women Fighters for Freedom," including Rosa Parks.* *Source: Civil Rights March on Washington by Shmuel Ross Next Week: Conclusion: Where Do We Go From Here?

Bulletin Board MPS high school students share insight on their high school experiences High school students from six Milwaukee Public high schools visited Morgandale School on Thursday, Feb. 5, 2015 to speak with seventh and eighth graders about what they need to do to start preparing for their high school experiences. Students from Bay View, MacDowell, Pulaski, Reagan, Rufus King and South Division high schools shared insights and ideas of what it is like to be a high school student. The high school students stressed the importance of time management, organization, study habits and not letting friends influence your decisions. “My students really didn’t

believe me or other adults when we talked to them about high school,” said Morgandale Principal Tina Flood. “When these high schoolers gave them straight talk, they listened." Principal Flood said the event was a success and helped Morgandale students see the variety of excellent high school options in Milwaukee Public Schools, especially during the three-choice enrollment period. Milwaukee Public Schools’ Three-Choice enrollment period is open through Friday, Feb. 20.

Concordia University offers high school students one year of college cost-free

The Concordia Promise dual credit program aims to start to solve the student debt crisis With a mission to provide access and opportunity to the “highest-value Lutheran Christian higher education possible,” Concordia University announced the Concordia Promise dual credit (early college start) initiative. The Concordia Promise offers high school students the unprecedented opportunity to complete one year of a liberal arts undergraduate degree cost-free. Program information is available online at http://concordiapromise. com/. According to data released in November 2014 by the Institute for College Access and Success, seven in 10 graduating seniors at public and private nonprofit colleges had student loans in 2013, with an average debt burden of $28,400. While the Wisconsin Association of Independent Colleges and Universities (WAICU) reported that out-of-pocket net tuition at Wisconsin’s private, nonprofit institutions was under $5,500, increasing costs for higher education has led to staggering levels of lifelong debt for more and more students and their families. The Concordia Promise helps solve this crisis. Under the program, enrolled students pay a reduced tuition cost of $50 per credit hour. Students are then eligible to participate in the Concordia Promise Plus, a scholarship in the amount paid for the dual credit courses that is applied toward their undergraduate tuition if students choose to attend Concordia University Wisconsin or Ann

Arbor. “At our core, we are dedicated to ensure that a lifelong Christ-centered education is within the reach of more and more students,” shares Concordia’s President, the Rev. Dr. Patrick T. Ferry. “The Concordia Promise pays forward to a student’s undergraduate experience, and makes an excellent Concordia education an opportunity that is more affordable, more accessible, and ultimately, more valuable.” "Our first focus is to prepare students for a lifetime of success,” shares Dave Burgess, executive director of Racine High School. “The Concordia Promise dual credit program provides a remarkable advantage, academically and financially, for students to pursue their future goals, while completing their high school diploma." In the spring semester of 2015, the Concordia Promise is being made available exclusively to Lutheran and Christian high schools and homeschool families nationwide. Plans to expand the program to private and area public high schools are under discussion. “We are living in a time of exceptional disruption in higher education,” adds Dr. Bernard Bull, assistant vice president of Academics who oversees Concordia’s Office of Continuing and Distance Education, where the program is housed. “This crisis calls us, as a Christian institution, to step up and lead the innovation of better solutions to meet the challenges we face.

Disneyland measles outbreak highlights the importance of vaccines Viruses flourish in highdensity areas and vacation spots where large numbers of visitors come together, bringing their unique colonies of pathogens. So it shouldn't be particularly surprising that an outbreak of measles has been tracked back to December visits to Disneyland in Orange County, CA. A total of 17 confirmed cases of measles originated

with visits to the theme park, confirmed the California Department of Public Health. Measles is highly contagious. The virus lives in the nose and throat mucus of an infected person and can be airborne, which means the virus can be coughed or sneezed into the air and land on someone else, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. To make matters worse, measles

can live for up to two hours on surfaces or in the air after being sneezed or coughed out, and people can transmit the disease up to four days before and four days after developing the signature measles rash. According to a CDC explainer, 90 percent of the unvaccinated people who come into contact with an infected person will also develop measles.

Metropolitan Missionary Baptist Church, Inc. Invites YOU to join us for th Our 78 Church Anniversary Celebration Sunday, February 22, 2015 at 10:45 a.m. Theme: “Christian Unity” “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” Psalm 133:1 Morning Worship Speaker

Rev. James M. Ivy, Pastor New Zion Baptist Church Beloit, Wisconsin

The best way to avoid getting the measles is to get two doses of a vaccine with the measles virus in it -- commonly known as the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine. Unfortunately, recent school inoculation reports indicate that vaccination rates among many children dropped substantially between 2007 and 2014, due to a number of factors that include discredited fears that the shots can cause autism. That's not just bad news for the individual children who opt out, it's also problematic for the community, as demonstrated by the unrelated Disneyland visitors and workers affected: Vaccination protects those who are too young or ill to get vaccinated. For instance, six of the measles patients that the CDPH confirmed were unvaccinated, but two of them were too young to receive the shots. Dropping vaccination rates, in addition to a global-

ized population with ties to parts of the world that have not yet defeated measles, have contributed to the most measles cases -- 610 patients in 2014 -- that the U.S. has seen in about 20 years, despite the fact that America technically “defeated” the disease in 2000. “Not since 1994 have we seen this many measles cases [in the U.S.], explained Emory University School of Medicine infectious disease expert Walter Orenstein in a previous interview with The Huffington Post. “To me this is a warning sign that we need to get on the offensive against measles.” To Orenstein, who is also a spokesperson for the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases, the fight against measles is two pronged: domestically, more parents need to get their children properly vaccinated. Internationally, developing countries need help getting the virus under control.

Tina's Place A Ministry of Saint Gabriel's Church of God in Christ Tina's Place is a grief support ministry that focuses on providing coping skills to children ages 5-12 who have experienced the death of a parent through violence. This type of loss often affects the spiritual, emotional, mental and behavioral stability of children. Our program strives to help children express their grief with others who are also enduring a loss through peer support, art and play therapy, grief counseling and special events. There will be no cost to the participants.

Charlie Sifford dies at 92; 'Jackie Robinson of golf' braved death threats

In one of golfer Charlie Sifford's first events as a member of the professional tour, he was heckled by white spectators — one even kicked his ball off the fairway and covered it with beer cans — in his home state of North Carolina. That night, an anonymous caller advised him not to show up for the second round. "Whatever you're going to do," Sifford replied on that night in 1961, "you'd better be ready at 9:20. Because that's when I'm going to be out there on the first tee." Golf was more than a game for Sifford, who, at age 39, became the first black player to earn a Professional Golfers Assn. of America membership card. His determination to climb over the whites-only wall that surrounded professional golf at the time — an effort set in motion by an insistent California attorney general — helped clear the way for generations of minority players. On Tuesday, Febuary 3, 2015, Sifford died in Cleveland at 92 after a recent stroke. President Obama praised Sifford, saying he had faced "indignity and injustice even as he faced the competition" and helped to alter "the course of the sport and the country he loved." Known as much for his short swing as his short answers to interviewers' questions, the cigar-chomping

Sifford was commonly referred to as "the Jackie Robinson of golf," an appellation he viewed with a jaundiced eye. "If I was the Jackie Robinson of golf, I sure didn't do a very good job of it," he often said. "Jackie was followed by a hundred great black ballplayers. I was followed by no one." While Sifford opened the door, the number of African American golfers who followed was, as he suggested, relatively small. The most famous, Tiger Woods, on Wednesday called Sifford "the grandpa I never had." But Sifford also paved the way for other minority golfers, who now include tour stars Vijay Singh of Fiji and South Korean K.J. Choi. "Without Charlie Sifford, there would have been no one to fight the system," Lee Elder, the first African American to play in the Masters in 1975, said in an interview later with the New York Times. "It took a special person to take the things he took — the tournaments that barred him, the black cats in his bed, the hotels where he couldn't stay, the country club grills where he couldn't eat." Which was precisely what he needed to be, for what he couldn't do with his talent, he did with his gumption, finally getting his tour card at 39, well past any athlete's prime age. Even so, he won twice on the PGA Tour —

one of those victories was at the 1969 Los Angeles Open at Rancho Park Golf Course — twice on the senior tour, consistently finished seasons among the 60 top money winners, was the first black player enshrined in the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2004 at St. Augustine, FL, and in 2008 was honored as that year's Ambassador of Golf. In 2014, he was a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor bestowed by the nation. It wasn't so complicated at the beginning. Born in Charlotte, N.C., on June 2, 1922, Sifford was working as a caddie at the Carolina Country Club, out-earning his father at 60 cents a day, when he was 10, and playing the course on Mondays, when the club was closed to members, or whenever he could sneak in a few holes on other days. Hence, his short swing: "I was always moving fast to keep from being thrown off the course. I never learned

how to take my time ... and develop a decent stroke." Still, he was shooting par golf — and smoking cigars — by the time he was 13. At 17, Sifford was taken aside by Carolina Club owner Sutton Alexander, who told him it would probably be best if he stayed away from the club. "I had gotten too good and the members didn't like it," Sifford told the Atlanta Constitution. "Mr. Alexander was concerned about my physical well-being." So Sifford headed north to Philadelphia, where he had relatives, and spent the next four years working in a biscuit bakery and hustling golf at Cobbs Creek, a public course open to black players. Then it was off to the Army for service in the Pacific — he fought on Okinawa — during World War II, and when the 26-year-old Sifford returned to the States, it was with the firm desire to become a pro golfer. In 1943, however, while Sifford was serving his coun-

try, the PGA of America, which ran the pro golf tour at the time, had inserted a "Caucasians only from North or South America" clause into its rules for membership. Thus, when Sifford applied, he was denied on the grounds that he wasn't Caucasian. And when he tried to enter PGA-sponsored tournaments, he was denied because he wasn't a member. Sifford was determined, though, and kept picking away. He played — and won six national titles — on a circuit set up by other black golfers, and spent several years as a personal coach and assistant to singer-bandleader Billy Eckstine, playing wherever and whenever he could in the few PGA events that accepted non-whites. "I went to Jackie [Robinson] and told him what I wanted to do," Sifford often recalled. "He asked me if I was a quitter. I told him I wasn't a quitter and he told me to go ahead and take the challenge." And it was a challenge. In 1952, playing in the Phoenix Open on an invitation obtained through former heavyweight boxing champion Joe Louis, Sifford, Louis and their all-black foursome arrived at the green on the first hole and found the cup filled with human excrement. They had to wait an hour for the cup to be replaced. (Continued pg. 19)

Charlie Sifford (Continued from pg. 15) At another tournament, again playing on an invitation, Sifford made a hole in one, which, it had been advertised, brought with it a new car and a cash prize. Somehow, though, the offer had been withdrawn, it was determined, just before Sifford teed off. And always, there were hecklers yelling racial insults, kicking his ball into the rough, shouting death threats. Sifford ignored them as best he could, and played the best he could. In 1955, at the Canadian Open, one of those tournaments that welcomed nonwhites, Sifford led the first round after shooting a 63. That put him a stroke ahead of Arnold Palmer. Palmer went on to win, but Sifford showed in that tournament that he could play with the best. In 1957, he won the Long Beach Open, and although it was not a tour event, it was co-sponsored by the PGA of America and included a number of name white pros. Finally, in 1960, the PGA gave in and issued Sifford an "approved player" card. It wasn't membership, but it allowed him to play in whatever tour events he could qualify for. And then, in 1961, under a threat by Stanley Mosk, then California attorney general and later state Supreme Court justice, to bar the tour from the state, the PGA caved in all the way, removing the "Caucasians only" clause from member-

ship requirement. Sifford is often credited with having been the first African American to win on the tour, but it didn't happen that way. Pete Brown, who took advantage of Sifford's pioneering and joined the tour when the offending clause was removed, beat Sifford to the punch, winning the 1964 Waco Turner Open in Burneyville, OK. Sifford broke through three years later in Connecticut, winning the 1967 Greater Hartford Open. He was 45. "Charlie birdied, not talked, his way through social prejudice," Pulitzer Prizewinning columnist Jim Murray wrote in The Times in 1969. "He broke barriers by breaking par. His weapon was a 9-iron, not a microphone. Charlie stands as a social pioneer not because he could play politics, but because he could play golf." In 2009, 40 years after Sifford won the L.A. Open, the tournament organizers established in his honor a sponsor's exemption for a minority golfer who otherwise would not have been eligible to play in the event. On Wednesday, Tiger Woods credited Sifford for the opportunity to chase a career that now includes 79 PGA Tour wins and 14 major championships. Without Sifford, Woods said, "I probably wouldn't be here. My dad would never have picked up the game. Who knows if the clause would still exist or not? But he broke it down." Sifford was preceded in death by Rose, his wife of 51 years. Among his survivors are sons Charles Jr. and Craig and three grandchildren.
