Mixed Reactions to Trump Presidency Vol 11; No. 20

www.streethypenewspaper.com

By Patrick Maitland Editor-Street Hype

everal members of the African American communities are expressing mixed reactions and surprise to the elections of controversial New York-based businessman Donald J Trump as the 45th president of the United States.

Trump defeated Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton by securing 270 Electoral College votes and currently leads Clinton 290-228 during the Tuesday (Nov 8) national elections. Entering Tuesday elections with most polls showing Clinton with marginal but steady leads, Trump's chances of victory were seen as remote. The Electoral College map was considered favorable to Clinton, who was said to have several paths to the winning threshold of 270 electoral votes. However, Trump obliterated Clinton's firewall, picking off unexpected wins in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, as well as sweeping swing states like North Carolina, Florida and Ohio.

With some 70% of the African American registered as Democrat there were expression of disappointment including strong emotional expression that Clinton was defeated by Trump. Democrat Mayor of Mount Vernon Richard Thomas says, “President-elect Donald Trump has promised to make American great again. It is my sincere hope that he remains true to that promise for all of America, particularly for communities of color that have experienced significant challenges gaining equal access to the American Dream.” Empowerment coach Carol Cameron says Trump may not be her first choice but it may be God’s plan and “we hope he will deliver on his promises by ‘making America great again.’ I expect him to do his job in the interest of the people of America.” Real estate broker Henry Lindo says “it’s a shocker, but it is also send a message to his naysayers and his political opponents not to be complacent. However, I expect him to success and overall the country’s infrastructures.” “We want Mr. Trump to do good, but he should focus on building a sustainable economy, much better than how he operates his own business,” Master stylist Pauline Fairclough explains.

We should support president-elect Trump A mericans are known to be a major advocate of democracy, freedom of expression and tolerance. However, the ongoing protest against duly elected president Donald J. Trump is a contradiction of our values and political liberty. Trump scored an astonishing upset presidential victory by securing 290 of the Electoral College votes, while Hillary Clinton receive a narrow lead in the popular vote. This is one of the weaknesses of American voting system that has been dogging us for years. Readers may recall that prior to Al Gore's defeat to George W. Bush in 2000, three other candidates -- Andrew Jackson, Samuel Tilden and Grover Cleveland, all in the 19th century -- had won the

popular vote and lost the election. Trump also four years ago tweeted, "The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy," following Mitt Romney's loss in 2012. Nevertheless, the Electoral College will be with us for a long-time and therefore demonstrators against Trump should respect the election results, as the system was not created by the president-elect. However, we understand Trump is perhaps one of the most misunderstood and controversial candidates to seek the post of president of the most powerful and influential country on the planet. His comments upset people as he came across sometimes as unsophisticated, disrespectful and insensitive.

patrick@streethype.net

During the elections campaign, he trashed his opponents with outrageous comments. It would appear that people are just afraid of Trump as he is very unpredictable.

Nonetheless, as noted in his victory speech, Trump said he will be fixing inner cities and rebuild our highways, bridges, tunnels, airports, schools and hospitals. Trump also promised to enforce the immigration laws of the United States and restore the Constitutional rule of law upon which America’s prosperity and security depend. He also promised to reduce taxes across-the-board, especially for working and middle-income Americans who will receive a massive tax reduction. However, president Obama said Trump will be the president and should be giving support for him to be successful.

Battle for Diversity at the Workplace People Are Talking...!

rganizations day in day out are faced with both internal and external pressure to embrace diversity. The bottom-line of an organization hugely depends on how diverse its workforce is. To compete in this global world, diversity and inclusion is not an option. With that being said, many organizations far and wide spend huge amounts of money for diversity training but this still has not shown too much growth and it is frustrating to spend huge amounts of money but still don't get positive returns.

Dr Neva Alexander

For example there is still a low representation of women and minorities in leadership po-

sitions. There is still a big problem in workforce equity. Some organizations have taken an initiative in changing how they hire new employees. They have done this by editing the hiring database to remove gender identifying requirements. This is more like blind hiring which assists organizations to hire solely based on qualifications. This process, though better than the traditional way of hiring has its challenges and it has proved not to be quite efficient. There are still some gender factors that shows an applicant is male or female which still leads to unequal employment.

This has been controlled by putting measures or rather creating rules that a percentage of women should be hired or not more than a certain number of men should be hired. My opinion is that there are deep routed cultures in all aspects in the world that makes people inclined to subconsciously make such biased decisions. A system needs to be put in place on how to tackle this issues because, it is the society that gets hurt in the long run. --------------------------------Dr. Neva is a Global Leadership and Education Specialist nalexander@nevalliance.com

It is Not Sexism Why Americans Rejected Hillary

hile many people of the world are in uproar and are bewildered how Donald Trump defeated some formidable, shrewd, and devious candidates to become the President-Elect of the United States, some of my articles in your papers will explain how he did it. Donald Trump not only vanquished the opponents, he made the major press corps look like fools, and he dumfounded world scholars and polling organizations. He also made with some talking heads (reporters) cry on TV, while some were fired for fraudulent conduct, and others’ mouths quivered as they tried to

BY DR RUPERT GREEN find words and could not. In addition, he made President Obama, governors, mayors, a Supreme Court Justice, along with major artists appear as fools. All Trump did was tapped the pulse of various angry groups of Americans. Continued on page 4

Why Americans Rejected Hillary?

NEWS

WWW.STREETHYPENEWSPAPER.COM

Continued from page 1 To some Americans, they placed Obama in power to make a difference and they got a law that made the US a homosexual nation. Additionally, he angered other groups by trying to get schools and other public institutions to have bathrooms that a person could enter depending on the gender he chosen at a given time. Thus, your daughter could be in the girls’ bathroom and a pervert decided he is a woman and go molest her.

Some states stood up against Obama and a federal judge supported them. People of the offended religious groups remained silent as he lit up the White House in queer colors. However, they vented their anger at the poll and voted for Trump. The pollsters and the press were dumbfounded because no one would come out and state those reasons they voted for Trump. Some groups vented because they saw the illegal immigrants crossing the border with impunity to deal drugs. Other groups saw their towns become ghost towns because of trade deals and the exporting of jobs to other nations. Trump spoke directly to those concerns. Hillary, like Trump, was a horrible candidate. However, Americans had a severe distrust for her and had twice rejected her. The Benghazi and the email scandals intensified the American’s distrust. Additionally, the leaked emails revealed her pay for play use of the State Department, and the devious and underhanded slash and burn political tactics she used to defeat Bernie Sanders and discourage Elizabeth Warren, and other better candidates. Perhaps out of fear, the Democrats made her the standard bearer, despite knowing she had major negative ratings. The mere fact Americans choose Trump, with his idiotic and seemingly racist and sexist behavior, over her and her 30 years of experience speaks volume. Her experience was another factor Trump harped upon to win. He revealed her 30 year of experience was that of a Washington insider. Finally, her callous behavior in sending her advisor to send home the hundreds who were gathered to “celebrate her victory” speaks to her character. But more telling was her earlier tweet with a little girl when she sensed she was losing. That tweet and her subsequent concession speech tried to lay a guilt trip upon the American people that sexism was the cause of her defeat. Clearly, there are more women than men in America, and if women all voted for her she would have won. The fact is, women also rejected her. Indeed, it was time for a women president but Hilary was not the woman. Perhaps now she can devote her time to getting Haitians the money that nations of the world gave her foundation to help the Haitians.

Mayor de Blasio signs Executive Order to protect workers:

In a major effort to ensure fair employment practices and close the pay gap for women and people of color, Mayor Bill de Blasio today signed Executive Order 21 prohibiting City agencies from inquiring about the salary history of job applicants. Executive Order 21 is the most recent effort by the de Blasio Administration to ensure the families of NYC’s diverse workforce are supported and enabled to thrive. The Mayor also announced his intent to support Intro. 1253, sponsored by Public Advocate Letitia James, which seeks to prevent both public and private employers from inquiring about potential employees’ salary histories. The Mayor and First Lady were joined by senior Administration officials, elected officials, City employees and advocates.

Murder charges against Richard Rosario dismissed

BRONX: urder charges against Richard Rosario have been dismissed and will not retry in the 1996 fatal shooting for which he served 20 years in prison. The investigation into the killing of Jorge L. Collazo II will continue, according to Bronx District Attorney Darcel D. Clark. District Attorney Clark said, “We moved to vacate Mr. Rosario’s conviction on March 23, 2016—freeing him from prison—and our Conviction Integrity Unit reviewed his case and we have determined that, in the interest of justice, the charges should be dismissed. We have concluded that since we would be unable to prove his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, the case should not be retried. “The CIU has reviewed thousands of documents and interviewed Rosario’s alibi witnesses, eyewitnesses who testified at the trial, and numerous other people who were part of the narrative of the case. Investigators pursued new avenues of inquiry. “The family of Jorge L. Collazo II, who was 17 years old when he was shot and killed, deserves certainty and justice, and we will keep investigating. His murder remains an open case.”

Council Member to Host Coat Giveaway

Unfortunately, far too many Bronx residents are unable to afford a warm winter jacket or coat this winter season. To help, New York City Council Member Andy King will distribute free coats to the neediest residents in the Bronx on Monday, Nov. 21, at 11 a.m. at his district office, 940 East Gun Hill Rd., Bronx.

Administrative Judge Robert E. Torres issued an order of dismissal dated November 4,

2016, after denying Rosario’s motion to amend the order vacating his conviction.

Assemblywoman arrested on child abuse charges

BROOKLYN: state assemblywoman from Brooklyn was arrested and charged with assault Saturday — after her 12-year-old son walked into an NYPD station house with an injured arm and accused her of hitting him with a broomstick, police sources said. Diana Richardson, 33, was arrested at her Crown Heights home at about 1 a.m. after her son walked into the 71st Precinct late Friday night and showed cops a contusion on his left arm, the sources said. The distraught boy told police at about 11:20 p.m. that he had gotten into an argument with his mother about his report card. Richardson — who on social media calls her son her “greatest accomplishment” — was taken to the station house the next day and admitted to beating the boy because he had pushed her during the argument, the sources said. She admitted that they had fought after he refused to complete an essay on how to

improve his grades, the sources said. The boy grew enraged and pushed her, she reportedly claimed. The boy, whose name is being withheld was treated at Kings County Hospital. Richarson faces charges of assault, endangering the welfare of a child, criminal possession of a weapon and menacing. She’s due back in court on Jan. 10. Richardson in a Facebook post had previously admitted to her son being difficult. “He is a pain in my side but I love him anyway!” she wrote in January 2015. Richardson is finishing up her first term as an assemblywoman in Brooklyn’s 43rd District which includes Crown Heights, Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, Wingate and East Flatbush. She’s running unopposed for a second term on Tuesday. Richardson’s colleagues were shocked to hear of allegations that she had harmed her son.

College of New Rochelle Owes $20M in Payroll Taxes

By Michael Woyton (Patch Staff): NEW ROCHELLE: reliminary inquiries into the financial stability of the College of New Rochelle found that about $20 million in payroll taxes were not paid for eight quarters, beginning in 2014. A report posted on the college’s website said that information resulted in an immediate investigation by a Special Committee of Trustees. Not only was a chief restructuring officer engaged to manage the college’s finances, but a forensic accounting firm was hired to review the school’s financial records and practices.

The board of trustees said the review is still in progress, “but preliminary findings indicate that there is a path forward for the college to remain a stand-alone institution. It will require significant cost-cutting and a a significant amount of outside funding; however, it is the primary goal of the board.” President Judith Huntington stepped down in October when the financial crisis was discovered. Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs Dorothy Escribano was named interim president. Kevin Cavanagh, the college’s vice president of enrollment management, was appointed to serve as executive vice president of strategy and planning.

KINGSTON, Jamaica -rofessor Sir Hilary Beckles, vice-chancellor of The University of the West Indies (UWI) has called on US President Barack Obama to grant a posthumous pardon to Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Jr., for his 1923 mail fraud conviction in the United States. Beckles’ call comes in the wake of Jamaica’s National Heroes Week, the annual celebration of the country’s heroes and martyrs. It also comes at a time when countries and communities in the Caribbean and across the world are observing the United Nations’ declared ‘Decade for People of African Descent’. “Marcus Garvey was the victim of trumped up charges orchestrated by the late J. Edgar Hoover, the famously anti-black director of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation,” Beckles said. “We are today calling on President Obama, himself the victim of racist campaigns to de-legitimize his presidency, to exonerate Garvey before he leaves office. It is the right and proper thing to do.” A global petition campaign demanding that Garvey’s federal record be expunged has generated tens of thousands of signatures. The campaign is supported by the Jamaican government, the Caribbean Reparations Commission, the Institute of the Black World 21st Century and members of the Congressional Black Caucus in the US House of Representatives. “Garvey’s call for the upliftment of all Caribbean citizens through education and po-

litical engagement constitutes a critical part of the ideological and philosophical currents that gave birth to The University of the West Indies almost 70 years ago,” Beckles said. “The UWI’s mission and mandate is a manifestation of Garvey’s struggles for quality education for the masses of Caribbean peoples, for self-respect, self-determination and cultural awareness in our region.” Born on August 17, 1887, in St Ann’s Bay, Jamaica, Garvey was a civil and human rights activist, organizer and eloquent orator who led the largest mass movement of black people in the 20th century. The founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), Garvey was a strong proponent of black nationalism, panAfricanism and self-reliance. He is Jamaica’s

Medical degrees issued by Guyana university are not recognised US DEPT OF EDUCATION SAYS

first national hero, and is revered by millions throughout the Caribbean, the United States, Canada, Central and South America and Africa. The late Dr Martin Luther King Jr., in paying tribute to Garvey in the 1960s, said he was “the first man on a mass scale and level to give millions of Negroes a sense of dignity and destiny.” Answering questions on April 9, 2015, following a speech at The University of the West Indies in Kingston, Jamaica, President Obama said: “I think that all people want basic dignity and want basic freedom, and want to be able to worship as they please without being discriminated against, or they should be able to speak their mind about an important issue pertaining to their community without being arrested.” “That’s true today, but it was also true of Marcus Garvey in 1923,” Beckles said. “The principles of reparatory justice on which the Caribbean Reparations Commission are founded, are the same principles that should be applied to repair and restore Garvey’s good name in the annals of US and world history.” The philosophy and teachings of Marcus Mosiah Garvey have long been internationally recognized for its strong and enduring influence on the independence movements in the Caribbean and Africa, on Rastafarianism and on the black liberation and Black Lives Matter movements in North America.

GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands: trade dispute preventing Surinamese duck meat from entering the market in Trinidad and Tobago could be resolved as soon as the Trinidad government amends its Animal Act, a Trinidad official told the CARICOM Council for Trade and Economic Development (COTED) on Friday. COTED has urged the Trinidad authorities to take the necessary steps to resolve the issue in a timely fashion. At the conclusion of its meeting at the end of the Caribbean Week of Agriculture 2016 in the Cayman Islands, COTED-chair and agriculture minister of Dominica, Johnson Drigo, noted, however, that since legislative procedures could take some time Trinidad could not offer a timeline when the matter would be resolved definitely.

profits by churning out a string of bogus degrees to unsuspecting foreign students. The investigation into these offshore universities in Guyana were launched in August 2016, after an Indian diplomat, Nigerian officials, and a grouping of past and current students of Texila American University (based in Guyana) contacted the Guyana Guardian and made a number of allegations surrounding the operations of the ‘university’. During the initial stages, careful atten-

tion was paid to information posted on the Texila University website, and its Wikipedia page so that the claims made by the affected students could have been itemized for factchecking. Among the many questionable studentattraction statements made by Texila American University was one in which the institution laid claims of recognition by the World Health Organization because of its enlistment in the WHO’s World Directory of Medical Schools.

IMF approves US$1.64 billion stand-by arrangement for Jamaica

WASHINGTON: he executive board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on Friday approved a three-year stand-by arrangement (SBA) for Jamaica to support the authorities’ continued economic reform agenda. Access under the SBA arrangement amounts to about US$1.64 billion (SDR 1,195.3 million), the equivalent of 312 percent of Jamaica’s quota in the IMF. The Jamaican authorities have indicated that they will treat the arrangement as precautionary, and do not intend to draw on the new SBA unless exogenous shocks generate an actual balance of payments need. The executive board approval will make about US$411.9 million (SDR 300.1 million) available, and the remainder in six tranches upon completion of semi-annual program reviews. Following the executive board discussion on Jamaica, Tao Zhang, deputy managing director and acting chair, said: “Jamaica has established a commendable track record of program ownership and implementation under the extended fund facility (EFF). Macroeconomic stability has been entrenched, evidenced by low inflation, the build-up of foreign currency reserves, and a decline in the current account deficit. Fiscal discipline and proactive debt management have helped place public debt on a downward trajectory. Still, growth is low, poverty and unemployment are high, and crime and security challenges impose a serious drag on growth. -----------------------------------------

Deportation of Haitians from US resumed

PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti: The deportation of Haitians to their home country from the US has been resumed, despite the post-Hurricane Matthew recovery situation and the more recent floods in Haiti. Inspector Gary Desrosiers, deputy spokesman of the National Police of Haiti (PNH) in charge of welcoming the deportees on their return to Haiti, confirmed the resumption of such flights. The first flight arrived last Thursday in Port-au-Prince with 30 Haitians on board and another flight arrived on Tuesday of this week with 40 other deportees. Desrosiers said the Haitians were subject to removal proceedings after illegally entering the US and subsequently jailed, HaitiLibre reported. Pierre Espérance, the executive director of the National Network for the Defence of Human Rights (RNDDH), noted, "These are not deported criminals, but people who went to Brazil and crossed from Mexico to San Diego, California." Describing the resumption of these deportations as unacceptable, he added, "…the US Government did not show solidarity with Haiti… the country is in an extremely complicated situation.

Scholarship for Students Aging Out of Foster Care

Albany, NY: The New York Bar Foundation is pleased to announce the establishment of the 2017 Honorable Judith S. Kaye and Children and the Law Committee Scholarship, which has been created through a special project of the Committee on Children and the Law of the New York State Bar Association. The scholarship partnership aligns the missions of The Foundation, the Children and the Law Committee, and the passion of Judge Kaye. The scholarship, valued up to $2,500, will be awarded to three students enrolled on a full-time or part-time basis during the 2016-2017 academic year in an accredited undergraduate or post high school certificate program. The scholarship is open to students who will age out or have aged out of foster care in New York state with a permanency goal of Another Planned Permanent Living Arrangement and are enrolled in an accredited undergraduate or post high school certificate program during the 20162017 academic year. Students must be under the age of 26 years. The application deadline is December 5, 2016. Students must demonstrate a school-related financial need beyond tuition that is not being met by other sources. The Judith S. Kaye Scholarship originally was established by the New York State Permanent Judicial Commission on Justice for Children at the request of the Kaye family to honor her commitment to improving the lives and life chances of the children who come before the New York courts. Judge Kaye chaired the commission for more 25 years, first while she served as an associate judge and later as chief judge

of the state Court of Appeals and continuing while of counsel at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom. “The reality today is that far too many young people leave foster care without the permanency and support of a stable family or the benefit of an education,” Judge Kaye wrote in a Newsday op-ed (“How New York can help its foster children succeed,” February 4, 2015). “A quarter experience homelessness within the first few years of leaving foster care, half are unemployed at the age of 24, and one in four will be caught up in the criminal justice system within two years.” The scholarship puts Judge Kaye’s words into action. “Every child in our country is entitled to an education sufficient to permit her to lead our great nation through this new century,” she said. “We must continue to strive to provide better supports for our children to allow them to succeed – to nurture and help them achieve their dreams and aspirations. Only then will we have met our responsibility of not only keeping our children safe but also encouraging them to thrive and be successful.” In January 2014, Research Highlights on Education and Foster Care reported that “When supported by strong practices and policies, positive school experiences can counteract the negative effects of abuse, neglect, separation, and lack of permanency experienced by the nearly 400,000 U.S. children and youth in foster care. Education not only supports economic success in adult life, it also provides opportunities for improved well-being in physical, intellectual, and social domains during critical developmental periods.”

Farah, 33, secured a historic 'double double' by retaining both his 5,000m and 10,000m Olympic titles at Rio 2016. Paula Radcliffe, in 2002, was the last British athlete to win one of the IAAF's end-of-year awards. Farah faces competition from the likes of Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt - a nine-time Olympic gold medallist - and South Africa's Wayde van Niekerk. Who are the nominees? Men Usain Bolt (Jamaica): Sealed the 'triple triple' in Rio, winning his third Olympic title in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay. Thiago Braz (Brazil): Set a new Olympic record of 6.03m to beat defending champion Renaud Lavillenie and claim a surprise Olympic gold. Ashton Eaton (USA): Became third man to retain the Olympic decathlon title, following Britain's Daley Thompson and USA's Bob Mathias. Mo Farah (GB): Only the second man to retain both the 5,000m and 10,000m Olympic titles. Eliud Kipchoge (Kenya): Claimed Olympic gold in Rio, four months after winning the London Marathon.

Conseslus Kipruto (Kenya): Broke the Olympic record on his way to 3,000m steeplechase gold this summer. Omar McLeod (Jamaica): Claimed Jamaica's first Olympic 110m hurdles gold, to add to his world indoor title from earlier this year. David Rudisha (Kenya): Became the first athlete since New Zealand's Peter Snell in 1964 to retain the men's Olympic 800m title. Women Almaz Ayana (Ethiopia): Added 10,000m Olympic gold to the 5,000m world title she won last year, breaking the 23-year-old world record in the process. Ruth Beitia (Spain): Won Olympic gold in the high jump to add to the world indoor silver medal she claimed earlier this year. Vivian Cheruiyot (Kenya): Claimed 5,000m gold in an Olympic record at her fourth Games. Kendra Harrison (USA): Broke the 28year-old 100m hurdles world record, having missed out on selection for the Rio Olympics. Elaine Thompson (Jamaica): Claimed gold in both the 100m and 200m in Rio. Anita Wlodarczyk (Poland): Broke her own world record to become Olympic champion in Rio - then broke it again two weeks later. Sandra Perkovic (Croatia): Successfully defended her Olympic discus title in Rio to extend her unbeaten run this season.

Reggae Boyz advance to Gold Cup, Carib Cup semis

Kingston, Jamaica WI: amaica’s Reggae Boyz have qualified to defend their Caribbean Cup title after beating Suriname one 1-0 in their final qualifying match at the national stadium last evening. The Jamaicans ended the game with ten players after defender Damion Lowe was shown a straight red for stomping on an opponent in the 34th minute. But they had already gotten the vital goal within the first quarter of an hour, thanks to Cory Burke's second international goal. The result means Jamaica tops Group 1 qualifiers ahead of Suriname and Guyana and coach Theodore Whitmore was left pleased. “I must laud the players on their performance this afternoon. We have seen it during the week of training, they really worked and it paid off,” said Whitmore. The victory also secured Jamaica's spot to the next CONCACAF Gold Cup.

Luciano saga continues

Promoters demand money back

by K'Shema Francis, iriefm.net

romoters in Europe are demanding their money back after Luciano pulled the plug citing that the tour organized by his booking agent and longtime confidante, Sonia Sterling and T-Boy from Germany was dismal. Luciano has since promised the promoters a new date but they are requesting their money back. On Saturday, T-Boy gave WTS the Scoop in an exclusive interview. In a Facebook message, Luciano cancelled his 2016 ‘Zion Awake Tour’ citing haphazard organization as the reason behind his decision. The European tour would see Luciano making stops in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Holland and Italy. The ‘Zion Awake’ tour would have been Luciano’s first, since getting his US visa cancelled in summer, when he tried to cross the Canada-US border, with a concoction which contained a cannabis extract.

Lawyer and author feels heat on book embracing Gay lifestyle

By Howard Campbell Observer senior writer Jamaican lawyer and author who wrote a book to build bridges with the gay community, says she has experienced backlash since its release in August. Audrey Thomas, a New York-based attorney, launched Does God Hate Homosexuals? No, God Cannot Hate, on August 20 at York College in Queens, New York. The book was inspired by her evolving views on same-sex relations after years of scorning homosexual behaviour. That change of heart has not gone down well with the Jamaican community. “They have been surprisingly hostile. Many questioned my own ‘straightness’,” said 45year-old Thomas. The third staging of her York College event was severely affected. “Most of the usual supporters did not show up. We generally have an audience of 400-500 people; this year we were lucky to get 70. I was

truly shocked at the level of hate I experienced,” said Thomas, who noted that 90 per cent of sponsors withdrew their support because the Jamaica Forum of Lesbians, AllSexuals and Gays (J-FLAG)’s logo was on her flyer. In an interview with the Jamaica Observer in August, Thomas admitted to once being ‘violently homophobic.’ But after successfully representing an American lesbian couple in a civil case, her thoughts on same-sex partnerships changed. Born in Kingston, Thomas migrated to Brooklyn, New York in 1981. She has practised criminal and civil litigation in New York for over 20 years. Does God Hate Homosexuals? No, God Cannot Hate, is her third book. Her previous book, White Men Aren’t Chumps: An Intellectual Discussion on Race Relations in America, was released in 2015. -Courtesy of Jamaica Observer

Employees give out marijuana in the form liquid and oil. The dispensary is operated by PharmaCannis, which also runs three similar sites upstate. "What this will do is provide an opportunity for the millions of people in New York that are suffering from some condition, but they have no alternative to help them improve their quality of life," said PharmaCannis CEO Teddy Scott.

"To know that we brought in a new company, a new type of medicine in which the community will benefit from. It's always a good thing to celebrate," said Bronx City Councilman Rafael Salamanca, Jr. A patient or certified caregiver at the dispensary must provide three forms of identification including proof the marijuana is needed for a debilitating or life-threatening disease.

BRONX he first medical marijuana dispensary in the Bronx will be open for business Monday. The facility in Hunts Point had a ceremonial grand opening on Tuesday.

7 Ways to Include Everyone In the Holiday Cheer

• Enunciate as you talk, but avoid the temptation to speak overly slowly. Instead, speak at a moderate but steady rate. • Be patient and be prepared to repeat or rephrase your comments. • Remember that if you are feeling frustrated, your partner in conversation may be, too. Keep your sense of humor so you can enjoy the holiday together. Learn more about The Gift of Hearing campaign, and find hearing aid batteries designed with the latest technology in mind, at Rayovac.com. -Photo courtesy of Getty Images

(Family Features) olidays bring get-togethers filled with music, food and conversation. However, for those who experience hearing loss, the season often takes on a whole different sound. Those with hearing loss often end up feeling isolated from the festivities, but there are ways you can make sure they feel comfortable joining the fun. A survey* by Rayovac, which was conducted online by Harris Poll, found that 56 percent of Americans say talking and catching up with family members is their favorite part of family gatherings, but nearly one out of every five (19 percent) say they have experienced difficulty communicating with someone who is hard of hearing. If you’ll be escorting a family member with hearing loss to a holiday event, be sure their hearing devices are in good operating condition with batteries that are able to power all of the device’s features, like Rayovac. The hearing aid battery company has also introduced the Gift of Hearing this holiday season, a campaign in which a portion of proceeds from its battery sales benefit the Starkey Hearing Foundation. This holiday season, make the most of the opportunity to share quality conversations with loved ones who have trouble hearing by following these simple tips from Shari Eberts of livingwithhearingloss.com: • Get their attention before speaking by saying their name or tapping them on the shoulder. • Give some context as to the topic of the conversation to help them infer. •Make sure they can see your lips. Stand in a well-lit area and be sure you are facing them directly, with your hand away from your face while talking. • Know that background noise can provide difficult distractions. If you’re hoping for more than a passing greeting, find a quiet place where you can visit comfortably.

The History of Thanksgiving

raditionally, and in the public mind, the first Thanksgiving Day occurred in 1621 when the Plymouth Pilgrim community joined in a feast with local Indians to celebrate the first harvest that the colonists had reaped on American soil. Indeed, 90 Indians and 53 Pilgrims feasted for three days at that event, and it was an official day of giving thanks to God for his blessings. However, the colonists were only carrying on the Calvinist Protestant tradition of designating special public days of thanksgiving for the blessings of the Almighty. It was not really something new in kind. The feast probably did include turkey since William Bradford informs us in his Of Plymouth Plantation that the land had a "great store of wild turkeys, of which they took many." Incidentally, there is indication that the colonists were familiar with turkey from back in England, even though it was a native American bird. That is because the Spanish had brought back and popularized turkey in Europe in the 1600's, and in England, it had become a major competitor to goose for Christmas dinners. The exact date of this thanksgiving feast is uncertain, but it seems to have happened in late September or early November.

Thanksgiving Traditions

Some of the main traditions of the season include: Providing free Thanksgiving dinners for the needy, holding food drives, and giving charitable contributions in general. The Salvation Army is especially famous for enlisting volunteers to serve Thanksgiving dinner to the poor. Attending church services where congregants give thanks to God for the year's blessings. These are typically held the weekend before, the day of, or the weekend after Thanksgiving Day. The saying of grace

Last year, National Turkey Federation Chairman Jihad Douglas presented a turkey to President Barack Obama in keeping with Thanksgiving tradition.

over Thanksgiving dinner at home is also a highly traditional moment of the holiday. Feasting on large Thanksgiving dinners and on leftovers for the week to come. Turkey is the centerpiece of the meal, and it is usually baked or roasted. Some, however, now opt to smoke or deep-fat-fry instead. In-bird stuffing, homemade mashed potatoes with turkey gravy, corn on the cob, butternut squash, candied yams, green been casserole, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie are some of the most traditionally eaten foods.

The Five Traits Of A Great Hair Stylist

1. You’re a good listener. Finding success as a hair stylist means listening to your clients in more ways than one. We all know the old saying: that hair stylists make better therapists than the real deal. It’s true that many of your guests will love rehashing the ups, downs, and dramas of their lives with you (and chances are, you’ll have fun listening). But the most significant act of listening you’ll undertake as a stylist is during the initial consultation with your guest, before their service.

term, and can identify whether it’s a good fit for the guest. And speaking of honesty: one of the number one complaints salons receive by guests is sticker shock because they didn’t know how much something would cost.

4. You possess technical skill and manual dexterity. All the honesty, creativity, and listening skills in the world can’t make up for a bad haircut. Being a good stylist means committedly learning the ins and outs of several techniques — and staying hungry for more education and training once you leave school. We’ve all heard “practice makes perfect” throughout our lives, but it bears repeating because it’s true. You have to make sure you’re familiar with a number of techniques and tools, that you work on building stamina in your hands, and hone your ability to keep your energy up while working on your feet all day.

2. You are creative and visual, and you know how to make your visions a reality. Part of being a successful hair stylist means staying on top of the latest trends, and the truly great stylists have the skill to integrate those trends into their clients’ personal style. At the same time, being a slave to fashion can be so cliché. Your elevated taste and killer eye for design should let you set a few trends of your own. At the end of the day, what is most important is you can not only generate a vision, but can execute it. 3. You are honest. If a guest wants a look that you think won’t work for them — whether due to the cut, the color, or the fact that their lifestyle simply doesn’t allow for the necessary styling or

5. You are adaptable. Adaptability is the crucible in which the first four requisites come into play. An excellent stylist is unfazed by changing trends, new tools, client visions that come way out of left field, and the millions of tiny inconveniences that somehow fill everyone’s lives.

NEW JERSEY Prospect Park man robbed of his car and sneakers in Paterson

WWW.STREETHYPENEWSPAPER.COM

PATERSON – A 28-year-old resident from Prospect Park was robbed at gunpoint on crime-ridden North Main Street on Saturday, police said. The victim was standing outside his car waiting for someone at about 4:15 a.m. when a man with a gun confronted him, taking his cash, phone, sneakers and keys, police said.

ohn Leadbeater, 59, Kearny, New Jersey, was sentenced to 60 months in prison for his role in a $13 million mortgage fraud scam that used phony documents and “straw buyers” to make illegal profits on overbuilt condos in Wildwood and Wildwood Crest, New Jersey. Leadbeater previously pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Jerome B. Simandle to a superseding indictment charging him with conspiracy to commit wire fraud. According to documents filed in the case and statements made in court: Leadbeater and his conspirators located condominiums over-

(

built by financially distressed developers in Wildwood and Wildwood Crest, New Jersey. They then recruited “straw buyers” from New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Arkansas, and California, to purchase those properties. The straw buyers had good credit scores, but lacked the financial resources to qualify for the mortgage loans. The conspirators created false documents, including loan applications that contained fraudulent financial and employment information, to make the straw buyers appear more credit-worthy and induce the lenders to make the loans.

The suspect then fled, while the victim went home to get another set of keys for his car, a 2009 Dodge, police said. But when the victim returned to the scene of the crime to get his car, the vehicle was missing, police said.

Dating Scene is Frustrating for Strong Young Woman

18 • STREET HYPE NEWSPAPER • NOV 1-18/NOV 19-30, 2016

Dear Divine Diva: am a young woman hoping to find "The One." But I have come to realize that I'm not the normal female. I don't get manicures or go shopping. (I hate shopping!) When I meet a guy, he likes that I'm "me," but if we get serious, then I'm either "too independent," "too outspoken" or "not girly enough." I don't want to change myself or pretend to be someone I'm not. One minute they like that I'm independent and can fend for myself; the next they don't like that I don't depend on them to pay bills, etc. Why is it always a double standard? Men like strong women until they are with one. Then they can't handle it. Maybe I'm too much for the men where I live. Is it possible for me to find someone? -Independent Female, Charleston, SC

Dear Independent Female: Welcome to the wonderful world of dating. While some may think of dating as a popularity contest, it's really more like sifting for a gold nugget. It takes a lot of people years to strike gold -- and it's the same with dating. Is it possible to find someone? Absolutely! But it takes time, stamina and a sense of humor to survive the process. -- Always Divine Diva

My wife still lives with her mom!

ive years ago, I married a 40year-old woman I'll call "Sandra." We had dated for eight years. My problem is, after all this time Sandra still has not moved into my home. She has never moved any of her personal belongings in either. And she runs home to her mother's house five days a week. When I try to talk to Sandra about this, she tells me she will bring her "stuff" over, but then she returns to her mother's and nothing changes. Please tell me what to do. -Lonely Spouse in New York

Dear Lonely Spouse: It appears your wife is having an unusually hard time severing the umbilical cord with her mother, who may not even be aware that her daughter has a husband. Because you and Sandra are so far apart on the amount of togetherness it takes to nurture a successful marriage, offer her the option of marriage counseling. If she refuses, you should consult a lawyer. -Divine Diva

7 Tips for Healthy Dining Out E Reviewed by Taylor Wolfram, MS, RDN, LDN ating at a restaurant doesn't have to sabotage your healthy diet. Tweet this Use smart-eating strategies: Plan ahead, consider the menu and choose foods carefully.

Preparation Have a plan. Eat a light dinner if you ate a big lunch that day. Or, if you know ahead of time that you're going to a restaurant, plan to have lighter meals during the day. Knowing menu terms and cooking basics makes ordering easier, especially if you have special dietary needs. Choosing a Restaurant Think ahead. Consider meal options at different restaurants and look for places with a wide range of menu items. Check online menus, if available, for nutrition information ahead of time.

Call 800-818-0357 To Learn More.

Ordering Be deliberate when ordering. Balance your meal by including healthier selections from all the different food groups such as lean protein foods, low-fat dairy, fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Look for freshly made entrée salads that give you "balance in a bowl." For example, entrée salads with baked or grilled chicken, beans or seafood provide protein along with fiber and other nutrients. Ask for dressing on the side so you can control the portion size. For sandwich toppings, go with veggie options including lettuce, tomato, avocado and onion; if using condiments, choose ketchup, mustard, relish or salsa. Round out your meal by ordering healthy side dishes, such as a side salad, baked potato or fruit. Boost the nutritional value of your baked potato by topping it with vegetables, salsa or chili.

Substitute. Ask for a side salad with dressing on the side to replace fries in a combination meal. Many restaurants honor requests, so don't be afraid to be assertive, ask menu questions and make special requests to meet your nutritional needs. Control portions. Many restaurants serve huge portions, sometimes enough for two or three people. Eat a smaller portion and bring leftovers home for another meal. Or, order an appetizer in place of an entrée and add a small soup or salad. Eating Eat slowly. It takes about 20 minutes for your brain to get the message from your stomach that you are no longer hungry. Fast eaters often are overeaters, while slow eaters tend to eat less and are still satisfied.

Eating Out with Kids Choose a restaurant that caters to children. This will increase the likelihood that a restaurant has a healthy children's menu that includes smaller portion sizes and meals designed to provide ample nourishment for smaller bodies. For new foods, offer a bite or two from your order. Otherwise, let kids order their familiar favorites when they eat out. Pick two or three suitable menu items and then let your child pick one. Substitute healthier sides in place of fries, such as carrots or apple slices, or share an order of fries, and order plain foods with sauce on the side. Calcium is important at all ages, but especially for growing bones. To get more calcium, opt for plain or chocolate milk for a beverage, or add a slice of cheese to their sandwich. Choose dairy-based desserts such as yogurt or a smoothie.

Make Marketing Manageable

Tips for small business owners, entrepreneurs

FAMILY FEATURES: t may seem that anyone with the guts to run their own small business should be able to master marketing with ease. And yet marketing strikes many small business owners with dread. In fact, a common refrain from business owners is: "I know my business is good, but I have no idea how to market it." Recently, The UPS Store conducted a survey of small business owners to identify their concerns. One-third of respondents said marketing or branding their business was the biggest challenge they face. To put it into perspective, marketing their businesses topped other common concerns of business owners including lack of time and lack of financial resources. Meanwhile, more than half of those surveyed said marketing ranked "very high" or "extremely high" on their list of key priorities. This contradiction becomes more concerning when you factor in the role small businesses play in the nation's overall business landscape. According to the Small Business Administration, small businesses (companies with less than 500 employees) provide 55 percent of all jobs and have provided 66 percent of all net new jobs since the 1970s. The small business sector could be stronger yet, if its representatives didn't feel intimidated by the essential discipline of

marketing, said Marcus Lemonis, entrepreneur and host of CNBC's "The Profit." Yet nearly 40 percent of respondents in The UPS Store's survey agreed or strongly agreed that they feel "overwhelmed" by the challenge. "Any business owner who can make a strong, persuasive pitch for the funding of their business can probably do the same for the products or services of that business," Lemonis said. To help small businesses transfer the skill of selling to funders to selling to cus-

* Understand that people are the cornerstone of your business. Find the right people to make sure they're marketing and selling your brand the way you would. * Be vulnerable, be honest and communicate. This stands true for every aspect of your business, including developing the next steps of your marketing strategy. If you share your business or your brand's story with a genuine approach, your success will increase. These are things most small business owners can do. Yet there are also marketing processes and skills that many small business owners aren't familiar with and need help from others to acquire. Among those who can provide help are The UPS Store's 4,500 locations across the nation. These stores are independently owned and operated, so store owners understand the challenge firsthand. Part of their mission is to help local startups, entrepreneurs and small businesses solve their problems, including marketing, printing, shipping and mailboxes. "I encourage small business owners to find new ways to break down the marketing barrier and learn marketing processes that will attract new customers and grow their business," Lemonis said.
