Stop targeting Blacks for marijuana possession!

t was good news for thousands of New Yorkers some two years when a new low-level marijuana possession policy dropped the charge from an arrest to a ticket and court appearance. Since then, however, more Black New Yorkers continue to be targeted and arrested for marijuana possession.

Across America, several studies reveal that Blacks are arrested as much as eight times as frequently as White people, yet the use Marijuana at 12 percent and 14 percent respectively.

Still, in New York City the situation is getting out of hand as Black people are nearly nine times more likely to be arrested or condemned by the justice system.

New York City is the most populous and multicultural city in the United States, with an estimated 8,491,079 people of which 25 percent are African Americans. Hispanics and Latinos make up another 27.5 percent of New York City's population. They too are among the New York City police most frequent target for marijuana possession.

As in the case of all law enforcement organizations, the NYPD operates under the direction of the New York City Council and the city’s mayor in keeping laws and regulations. The mayor also appoints the city’s police chief and set the overall agenda or focus for the lawmen during his term in office.

Nonetheless, as a politician, the mayor is expected to act in the best interest of the people who elected him to office. While our lawmen (cops) are trained to take instructions and operate under city and state regulations, the influence or direct order of the mayor could never be ignored.

Conversely, under our system of governance, Police Commissioner Bill Bratton would be out of a job if he often ignores or fails to have his officers implement the policy directives of Mayor Bill de Blasio.

Blacks, Latinos, and Asians comprise almost 70 percent of the city’s population and six out of seven voters are registered Democrats.

patrick@streethype.net

Additionally, 25 of the 51 members of the City Council are Blacks, Latinos and Asians.

Mayor de Blasio is therefore a very powerful mayor -- surrounded with strong political influence and clout that none of his appointees would want to test or ignore. Nevertheless, the police constantly harass, target and discriminate against the Black and Latino population under the

watchful eyes of the Mayor and his City Council's Black and Latino council members.

However, it is not our opinion that the police are being instructed or influenced by de Blasio to discriminate against black people or to target them for marijuana possession, but the Mayor’s actions do not appear to send a strong message to cops that such behavior against African American will not be tolerated.

The police are here to uphold the laws as well as to serve and protect every citizen without favor or bias. The mayor or his police chief must therefore be held accountable if any member of the NYPD fails to operate in accordance with such universal policy.

The Mayor de Blasio must stop cops that targeted Blacks for marijuana possession as a demonstration of his respect and sincere commitment to the very people who voted for him and always support his political ambitions.

Mayor de Blasio faces investigations!

t is important for you to know that I never supported Mayor de Blasio when he was a Mayoral Candidate, and instead. I supported Eric Salgado and Bill Thompson.

For the record, I don’t like Bill de Blasio’s policies, we have nothing in common, and I have not met with him nor spoken with him in person since he was elected Mayor.

But as I see him being subject to what looks like selective prosecution, I must speak out.

It is important for you to know that Risa S. Sugarman, who was appointed by Governor Andrew Cuomo to serve as the Chief Enforcement Officer for the Board of Elections, sent a report to the Manhattan District Attorney regarding Mayor Bill de Blasio’s “willful and flagrant” campaign law violations.

Ms. Sugarman’s report prompted a criminal investigation into Mayor de Blasio’s fund-raising.

According to Ms. Sugarman’s report, Mayor Bill de Blasio and his team raised money to send to certain County Committees in 2014 to help Democrats running for the State Senate. In a response to Ms. Sugarman’s report, a criminal investigation against Mayor de Blasio is underway.

You should also know that City and State’s Winners and Losers column for the week ending 4/29/2016 included NY Times columnist Jim Dwyer in the Win-

People Are Talking...!

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW

By Senator Rev. Rubén Díaz diaz@nysenate.gov District 32 Bronx County

ners’ column for successfully “putting pressure on state Board of Elections Chief Enforcement Officer Risa Sugarman to explain her selective investigation process.

This hat-tip tip Jim Dwyer includes his April 28, 2016 column “Faulting de Blasio for Walking a

Mayor de Blasio

Beaten Path in Elections.”

Mr. Dwyer wrote: “In 2008, when Michael R. Bloomberg was mayor, he gave $1.2 million to the tiny Independence Party, which used the money to help the campaigns of two Republican senators in Queens, Frank Padavan and Serphin R. Maltese … Mr. Bloomberg also gave $500,000 to

the Republicans’ Senate campaign committee, which supported Mr. Padavan and Mr. Maltese in their races.”

As you can see, Mayor de Blasio’s actions are not the first time a Mayor has used his political power and resources to influence New York State Senate races. This is routinely done by Democrats and Republicans alike, and we all know it.

I have to ask myself, how is it that Mayor de Blasio is being investigated and has received subpoenas from the Manatten District Attorney and the US Attorney General, and how is it that he is being lambasted on the front pages and editorial columns of New York’s daily newspapers, when the things he did are no different that what Michael Bloomberg did when he was New York City’s Mayor?

Why was there no outcry for investigations and allegations made when Michael Bloomberg also violated New York’s Campaign Finance laws by donating large amounts of money to the Republican and Independent Parties in order to hold sway over certain State Senate elections?

If everyone does it, how come only Mayor Bill de Blasio is being held accountable?

Mount Vernon mayor unveils plan to revitalize memorial field

MOUNT VERNON:

emorial Field in Mount Vernon was the backdrop to a classic Super Bowl commercial nearly 40 years ago, but it has since become an eyesore and a place for illegal dumping.

Besides the commercial, families for generations attended graduations and games there.

Now, Mayor Richard Thomas hopes the community will come together to save it, at an estimated cost of more than $14 million.

Attorney indicted for stealing $600,000 from client estate

A

QUEENS: Queen’s attorney has been charged with siphoning off approximately $600,000 from an estate that he was hired to represent and using the funds for his personal expenses.

Frank Racano, 54, of Howard Beach, Queens, was arraigned last week before Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Danny Chun on an indictment in which he is charged with one count second-degree grand larceny. He was held on $250,000 bail and ordered to return to court on August 10, 2016.

Brooklyn District Attorney Ken Thompson said according to the indictment, between February 2013 and May 2015, the defendant stole approximately $587,160.56 from the estate of New York City Civil Court Judge John L. Phillips, Jr., who died unmarried, childless and without a will on February 16, 2008.

District Attorney Thompson noted also that according to the investigation, on January 16, 2009, Samuel Boykin, a nephew by marriage, successfully petitioned the Kings County Surrogate to be appointed administrator of the estate.

In early 2010, Boykin hired Racano, a licensed attorney, to assist in the sale of the estate’s real estate holdings, which included the Slave Theater, located at 12151217 Fulton Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant and 10 Halsey Street, a vacant lot behind the theater. In 2012, the properties went into contract for a total of $2.2 million and the buyer paid the estate a down payment of $220,000. That check, payable to “Frank Racano, as attorney,” was deposited into the defendant’s attorney trust checking account.

Kings County Surrogate Diana Johnson approved the sale of the properties on December 19, 2012. On February 25, 2013, at the closing for the properties, the buyer’s attorney paid closing expenses and taxes that were owed on the property.

The net proceeds of the sale, $517,339.65, were paid to the estate in two checks payable to “Frank Racano, as attorney.”

Andrew Davis was found guilty in December of first-degree distribution of cocaine, second-degree money laundering, and second-degree conspiracy. The Camden, NJ, jury was unable to reach a unanimous verdict on the charge of leading a narcotics network. He will face a new trial on that charge.

Six other defendants in Operation Next Day Air were sentenced to state prison sentences ranging from three to 16 years.

“Andrew Davis should have stuck with his music career instead of shipping cocaine, because now he'll be performing in the prison hall instead of dance halls,” said Colonel Rick Fuentes, Superintendent of the New Jersey State Police. “I am particularly proud of State Police Detective Sergeant Erik Hoffman, who was the lead case agent of this investigation, which dismantled a major, international drug trafficking ring.”

Bronx murder to serve 25 yrs in prison

A

BRONX: 38-year-old man has been sentenced to 25 years in prison with 10 years post-release supervision for killing Destiny Sanchez, a 15-year-old Bronx girl in 2012.

The defendant, Luis Vega who lived at various addresses in New York City when the crime occurred in 2012, was sentenced by Bronx Supreme Court Justice William Mogulescu to 25 years in prison for manslaughter, 20 years for criminal sexual act to run concurrently, and 10 years post-release supervision. Vega pleaded guilty on May 4, 2016, to first-degree manslaughter and first-degree criminal sexual act.

According to the investigation, on November 22, 2012, Destiny Sanchez left her father’s home with Vega, brother of her father’s girlfriend, and went to 640 Barretto Street in the Hunts Point section of the Bronx, where they drank alcohol. The following morning, her body was found, her clothes askew, and bleach had been poured on her.

Vega’s DNA was found on the victim, and on a bleach bottle at the apartment where he had been staying.

Bronx District Attorney Darcel D. Clark said, “This defendant committed a horrendous sex act on a child, strangled her and covered her body in bleach to destroy evidence. Destiny Sanchez would have celebrated her 16th birthday a week later.”

More Black men getting arrested for marijuana use NEWS

MAY 19-31, 2016 • STREET HYPE NEWSPAPER • 5

S

NY, NY: ome two years since Mayor Bill de Blasio and police commissioner Bill Bratton announced details of New York City's new low-level marijuana possession policy, which drops the charge from an arrest to a ticket and a court appearance, Black New Yorkers continue to suffer disproportionately from low-level marijuana arrests.

According to new statistics from the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services, from January to March of this year, 9 out of 10 arrests in New York City for marijuana were Blacks.

The data shows arrests for "small amounts" of marijuana were up a whopping 33.7 percent from last year. “Apparently, NYPD didn’t get the memo.

Somebody should tell Mayor deBlasio and Commissioner Bratton: The ‘War on Pot’ is over,” said Dennis Levy, president of New York State Committee To Legalize Marijuana, the largest marijuana advocacy organization in New York.

Levy further noted, “We have been saying for years that black people, especially young black men, are targeted for

An African American man being arrested by a NYPD Cop arrest for possessing marijuana because of their skin color. This report proves we’re right. New York’s move to legalize medical marijuana didn’t change the mindset of NYPD. Young black men are still selectively targeted for arrest for smoking pot.”

Robert Gangi, director of the Police Reform Organizing Project (PROP), said in a press release that “the statistics

showed that NYPD arrest practices are marked by waste and racial bias” and that “despite the rhetoric in City Hall, marijuana infractions remain a major focus of the police.”

PROP is a public education and political advocacy organization seeking to stop the unjust, “discriminatory and racially biased, practices of the NYPD.” In 2010, the white arrest rate for marijuana possession nationwide was 192 per 100,000, while the black arrest rate was 716 per 100,000, according to a 2013 American Civil Lawyers Union (ACLU) report. The racial disparity in the arrest rate has increased over the past decade too.

While the white arrest rate has stayed constant at 192 per 100,000, the black arrest rate has risen from 537 per 100,000 in 2001 to 716 per 100,000 in 2010. Rate of marijuana use are more or less identical between whites and blacks, according to data from the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse and Health.

By Trinidad Express PORT-OF SPAIN, T&T T least 75 Venezuelans are travelling to Trinidad through the port in Cedros every two days for the past six months, due to the deteriorating conditions on the mainland.

This is a 500 per cent increase in the past two years, said chairman of the Siparia Regional Corporation Leo Doodnath, who visited the port yesterday along with the county medical officer, and had an informal meeting with Customs, Immigration, Coast Guard and the police.

Doodnath said the port was not built to accommodate so many travellers and immediate measures will have to be put in place.

St Lucians Get New Prime Minister

WWW.STREETHYPENEWSPAPER.COM

A

CASTRIES, St Lucia: n emotional Allen Michael Chastanet was sworn in Tuesday as the sixth Prime Minister of St Lucia since the island attained political independence from Britain in 1979, vowing to unite the country following Monday’s general election.

Chastanet, an economist and hotelier, took the oath of office before Dame Pearlette Louisy at Government House on the outskirts of the capital. The brief ceremony was witnessed by family members, including his 82year-old father, Michael, as well as his wife and two children.

Several of the victorious members of the United Workers Party (UWP) were also present as Chastanet, choked up with emotion, thanked the population for giving him an opportunity to lead the island over the next five years.

“Thank you St Lucians of all categories for listening and going out in large numbers yesterday and exercising your constitutional rights,” he said, adding “yesterday you voted for change and the United Workers Party is ready to bring about the change you want”.

Chastanet said “as a nation we have proven once again that St Lucia is a mature democracy in which the will of the people lives,” and “we humbly accept the overwhelming mandate you have given to us”.

The UWP won 11 of the 17 seats at stake in Monday’s general election, ousting the incumbent St Lucia Labour Party (SLP) that was seeking a second consecutive term under the leadership of Dr Kenny Anthony.

Allen Chastanet St. Lucia Prime Minister

Chastanet congratulated all 17 successful candidates as well as those who participated in the general election, noting that “the will of the people was to give the United Workers Party an opportunity to pursue policies and programmes aimed at improving the standard of living and the quality of life for all St Lucians.

However, he warned that in order for the “ambitious goal to succeed, I will require the cooperation and full support of all St Lucians.

Cuban President to visit Jamaica

Kingston, Jamaica WI: Cuban President Raul Castro has been invited to visit Jamaica. Prime Minister Andrew Holness, issued the invitation during the recent Summit of the Association of Caribbean States, which was held in Havana.

He agreed and we'll work out a date, and most certainly, we will ensure the bipartisan nature of the visit," Mr. Holness expressed.

Raul Castro has been President of the Council of Ministers of Cuba since 2008.

Venezuelans pick through trash for food to eat or sell

U

CARACAS, Venezuela: ntil recently, Julio Noguera worked at a bakery. Now he spends his evenings searching through the garbage for food.

"I come here looking for food because if I didn't, I'd starve to death," Noguera said as he sorted through a pile of moldy potatoes.

"With things like they are, no one helps anyone and no one gives away meals."

Across town, unemployed people converge every dusk at a trash heap on a downtown Caracas sidewalk to pick through rotten fruit and vegetables tossed out by nearby shops. They are frequently joined by small business owners, college students and pensioners — people who consider themselves middle class even though their living standards have long ago been pulverized by triple-digit inflation, food shortages and a collapsing currency.

Venezuela's poverty had eased during the administration of the late President Hugo Chavez. But a study by three leading Caracas universities found that 76 per cent of Venezuelans are now under the poverty line, compared with 52 per cent in 2014.

Gay rights referendum in Cayman

O

GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands: nce again, some of the Cayman Islands’ longest serving politicians have attacked the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

During the budget debate in the Legislative Assembly last week, independent backbench member Anthony Eden and opposition leader McKeeva Bush both took aim at plans for a conference on issues impacting the group and criticised Cayman Islands Governor Helen Kilpatrick for offering her support for the cause. They also called for a referendum on the issue of same-sex unions.

Kilpatrick’s daughter, a student at the Truman Bodden Law School, and Leonardo Raznovich, a former professor at the school, are the lead organisers of the seventh Queering Paradigms conference, which is taking place this year in the Cayman Islands.

Obama was the ‘deporter in chief’ This 2016 US Supreme Court Decision Could Change Immigration Policy Forever

W

By Zeeshan Aleem of Yahoo.com ill President Barack Obama be remembered as a "deporter in chief," or as a president who took a bold stand on behalf of undocumented immigrants? Much of the answer to that question hinges on a single Supreme Court ruling expected to arrive this month.

For most of his tenure, Obama has deported undocumented immigrants at a ferocious pace. Fusion reports that since taking office in 2009, he's overseen the deportation of over 2.5 million people — a 23% increase since George W. Bush's presidency, and a statistic that makes him the most aggressive deporter in U.S. history.

But there are two major exceptions to Obama's proclivity for expelling undocumented immigrants from the United States.

The first was an executive action that he took in 2012 that established the program Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, which offered temporary protection to over 1 million young people who entered the country illegally as children.

The second exception came in the fall of 2014, when Obama announced new programs — also authorized through executive action — that expanded DACA and inaugurated the program Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents, or DAPA. DAPA offers deportation relief to undocumented immigrants who are parents of U.S. citizens or permanent residents and allows them to apply for work permits, assuming they meet a few conditions. Collectively, the programs shield over 4 million individuals from deportation.

But Obama's 2014 programs haven't been allowed to go into full effect. Soon after they were announced, Texas and 25 other states sued the Obama administration over the policies, arguing that they represented an abuse of executive authority. The programs were blocked by a federal judge in Texas and a federal divided appeals court upheld his ruling.

Now the Supreme Court is expected to weigh in on the matter — and their ruling will play a key role in shaping Obama's complex

President Barack Obama legacy on the issue of immigration.

There are number of legal principles at play in the case, but the states are suing the Obama administration primarily based on the idea that the White House lacks the authority to unilaterally change immigration enforcement in such a sweeping manner.

As the Council on Foreign Relations explains, the states argue that "while the president does have some discretion in how he enforces the law, including the power to defer deportation on a case-by-case basis, he does not have broad powers to grant legal status and work authorization to whole categories of people." The states suing the White House say the programs would require them to spend millions of dollars on public benefits provided to residents with legal status, and that Congress must have a say in the matter.

The Obama administration and its allies believe that the executive branch is well within its rights, and carrying on with a wellestablished tradition of overseeing immigration enforcement on its own terms. As Richard Lugar, a former Republican senator from Indiana, argued in a New York Times op-ed in April, the executive branch has long been given a great deal of latitude in dealing with enforcement of immigration law, both by Congress and the Supreme Court: Congress has repeatedly granted the executive branch broad power in enforcing immigration laws. The 2002 law creating the Department of Homeland Security explicitly

Call Attorney:

DAVID B. CALENDER 516-837-3758

said the executive should set "national immigration enforcement policies and priorities."

The Supreme Court has recognized the leeway Congress gives the executive branch in deportations. In a 2012 majority opinion written by Justice Anthony M. Kennedy and joined by Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., the court noted that "a principal feature of the removal system is the broad discretion exercised by immigration officials," including the decision "whether it makes sense to pursue removal at all."

What's the Supreme Court going to do about it?

During oral arguments in April, the Obama administration faced a very tough line of questioning from the high court's justices.

CNN reported at the time that Justices John

Roberts and Anthony Kennedy — Republican-appointed justices who joined three liberal justices in the last high-profile immigration case — showed signs of skepticism of the legality of the programs: Roberts also seemed concerned with the scope of the government's argument defending Obama's moves. "Under your argument, could the President grant deferred removal to every unlawful -- unlawfully present alien in the United States right now?" he asked Solicitor General Donald Verrilli.

At one point, Justice Anthony Kennedy suggested that the president might have strayed into Congress' territory. "It's as if -that the President is setting the policy and Congress is executing it," he said. "That's just upside down."

Educator Facing Firing for Exposing Racism and Discrimination: Calls for an Uprising (Help)

J

amaican born Activist and Scholar-educator, Dr. Rupert Green, is seeking you support to help fight the racism and discrimination that rouge elements in the New York City Department of Education (DOE) use to keep Blacks out of leadership and teaching positions.

Dr. Green, a NYC educator, is facing possible termination for “using DOE emails” to reveal how Black and disadvantaged children were being failed because nepotism and racism was used to ensure they saw few Blacks educators, especially males, as role models. This is a problem in most states and in other nations where Blacks are found.

Thus, he seeks wide support with hiring lawyers to fight for our children.

Reggae Boyz lose to Venezuela

T

he Reggae Boyz after a sterling 2-1 victory performance against World Number3 ranked Chile on May 27 in Vina Del Mar, were upset 1-0 by Venezuela in their opening Copa America Centenario Group "C" match at Soldier Field in Chicago, home of the NFL's Chicago Bears.

The Boyz in an uneven first half performance, first put Venezuela under early pressure which saw JeVaughn Watson's header from the right side of the penalty box crash onto the crossbar and rebounded into play, where Adrian Marriapa failed to turn the rebound in.

After the Boyz applied some more attacking pressure, their defence was caught out by the Venezuelans, sending through Josef Martinez on the left side.

He made no mistake in the 15th minute by slotting under the advancing body of goal-

keeper Andre Blake to score against the run of play.

Nine minutes later Rodolph Austin was shown a straight red card for a dangerous tackle against a defenceless player, which left the Boyz with 10 men. Head coach Winfried Schaefer made a forced change 5 minutes from half time, replacing the injured Kemar Lawrence with Leicester City's English Premier League champion's captain Wes Morgan.

At the half, Venezuela 1, Jamaica 0.

And although the Boyz tried hard in the second half, Venezuela dominated possession with the numerical advantage to maintain the lead and won 1-0 at the final whistle. A disappointing result for Jamaica whose coach Winfried Schaefer was sent to the stands by the referee for arguing with match officials.

orld Championship silver medalist Justin Gatlin has signalled that he wants to race world record holder Usain Bolt ahead of the Rio Olympics.

Speaking to the BBC ahead of his 100 metre race at the Rome Diamond League on Thursday, Gatlin said he would not shy away from such a clash.

“Yeah I wouldn’t mind racing a couple times before Rio. I think it would be a good match-up and build-up going into the Olympics. That’s the powers that be…if I’m able to race him…I’ll be happy to race him,” said Gatlin.

The 34 year old sprinter, who survived two doping bans, says he has not yet decided when he will call time on his career.

Muhammad Ali dies at 74

B

January 17, 1942-June 3, 2016

oxing legend Muhammad Ali one of the world's greatest sporting figures - has died at the age of 74.

The former world heavyweight champion died late on Friday at a hospital in the US city of Phoenix, Arizona, having been admitted on Thursday.

He had been suffering from a respiratory illness, a condition that was complicated by Parkinson's disease.

Ali's funeral will take place in his hometown of Louisville, Kentucky, said his family Tributes for the heavyweight great have been pouring in from across the world.

"Muhammad Ali shook up the world.

And the world is better for it," said US President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle.

Former President Bill Clinton - husband of Democratic frontrunner Hillary said the boxer had been "courageous in the ring, inspiring to the young, compassionate to those in need, and strong and goodhumoured in bearing the burden of his own health challenges".

Republican presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump, meanwhile,

tweeted that Ali was "truly great champion and a wonderful guy. He will be missed by all!"

George Foreman, who lost his world title to Ali in the famous "Rumble in the Jungle" fight in Kinshasa in 1974, called him one of the greatest human beings he had ever met.

American civil rights campaigner Jesse Jackson said Ali had been willing to sacrifice the crown and money for his principles when he refused to serve in the Vietnam war.

Born Cassius Marcellus Clay, Ali shot to fame by winning light-heavyweight gold at the 1960 Rome Olympics.

Nicknamed "The Greatest", the American beat Sonny Liston in 1964 to win his first world title and became the first boxer to capture a world heavyweight title on three separate occasions.

He eventually retired in 1981, having won 56 of his 61 fights.

Muhammad Ali is survived by the following children: Laila Ali, Rasheda Ali, Hana Ali, Asaad Amin, Maryum Ali, Jamillah Ali, Khaliah Ali, Muhammad Ali Jr., Miya Ali.

Chris Gayle loses lucrative Big Bash contract after latest sexism scandal

D

NEW DELHI, India: ays after West Indies opener Chris Gayle was involved in another sexism row, Big Bash League (BBL) franchise Melbourne Renegades has confirmed that they will not be resigning him for next summer’s KFC Big Bash League.

Renegades chief executive Stuart Coventry said yesterday that the club is looking elsewhere to fill its overseas quota. “We’ll unveil our international signings soon and Chris (Gayle) isn’t part of those plans,” Coventry was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au.

The decision of the Renegades to not call upon Gayle’s services effectively ends his chance of featuring in this season’s tournament, with the remaining clubs having already signed or having shown no interest in the Jamaican.

Unconfirmed reports suggest that Dwayne

Bravo could be a replacement for Gayle.

The development comes a day after Gayle launched a scathing attack on former cricketers Chris Rogers, Ian Chappell and England allrounder Andrew Flintoff in his forthChris Gayle coming autobiography “Six Machine: I Don`t Like Cricket… I Love It.” Earlier this year, Gayle was fined US$7,500 and was censured heavily by these former cricketers over his notorious comments to Ten Sports TV presenter Mel McLaughlin during last year`s BBL.

relationship of young people with law enforcement. Lt. Blackwell went on to say “I think what Bishop Dr. Popeye C.G. Whittingham is doing with the Cops and Kids program is excellent as this encourages positive relationships and creates a real difference in their lives by building bridges of long-term trust and confidence.”

Other sponsors include Latin AfricanAmerican Chaplain Association, United HealthCare, Golden Krust, Inner City Gun Violence Prevention Inc., and Harlem Mothers SAVE; Art 2 Ink; New York County District Attorney; NY Juvenile Delinquency Prosecutors; Jamaica Ex-Police Association (Bronx Chapter); Church of Scientology and the Law Enforcement Employees Benevolent Association.

Chair of the event, Bishop Dr. Popeye C.G. Whittingham, in speaking about the event stated that throughout his career he found a huge disconnect between law enforcement and the people. It was not until when he became a clergy liaison officer, that he realized how to establish that connection and to truly make a difference in someone’s life.

During his years as a clergy liaison officer, he felt compelled to start programs that would bring citizens and the police together.

By breaking down barriers, they teach police officers and citizens to trust and depend on each other.

Bishop Dr. Popeye C.G. Whittingham stated he want to bring these programs to the communities in his native country of Jamaica.

He has committed to helping several basic schools to develop a bigger, better and brighter future for the children of Jamaica.

He stated that one of the best way to change the public’s perspective is to start with the children, thus I created several community service programs aimed at kids. He has created the Popeye C.G. Whittingham Scholarship Fund that has helped a lot of kids from the inner city in Jamaica to be able to attend school.

To further develop this program he has since started a GoFundMe page https://www.gofundme.com/xusxhyps to raise money to assist in further developing these schools by buying needed equipment and school supplies.

Raging Fyah hits the billboard

R

Members of Raging Fyah band

egarded as one of Jamaica’s most promising young acts, self contained band Raging Fyah has recently released their third studio album "Everlasting" to rave reviews from fans and music industry alike.

Reflecting of the body of work on the album, "Everlasting" made it's debut this week at #2 on the billboard charts, and adding to this feat is now #3 in Japan, while the single Live Your Life featuring J Boog and Busy single is #4.

Recorded live at Kingston’s legendary Tuff Gong Studios producer Llamar “Riff Raff” Brown (whose credits include Stephen and Damian Marley, Richie Spice, T.O.K and 2016 Grammy Award winners Morgan Heritage) incorporates broad based influences, various acoustic subtleties, and a few guest artists, all of which enhances as well as expands Raging Fyah’s established reggae identity.

“Working on this album was very exciting but challenging; we wanted to stay within the context of who Raging Fyah is, but we never want to box ourselves in either,” explains the band’s bassist/backing vocalist Delroy “Pele” Hamilton. “Being free spirited as musicians, we spend many hours jamming all kinds of music when we rehearse so we said why not use some of what we feel naturally on our record?”

The title Everlasting was chosen to convey the durability of Raging Fyah’s music and the long term effect collaborating with Riff Raff has had on the band. “We had the choice to work with any producer we wanted, locally or internationally and we chose Llamar,” says Raging Fyah’s keyboardist/backing vocalist Demar “Keysie” Gayle. “We have learned so much from him; the way he helped to shape our sound is an everlasting lesson.”

JERSEY CITY: ayor Steven M. Fulop took yet another step recently in support of Jersey City’s small business community, launching the Small Business Navigator online tool to assist aspiring entrepreneurs.

The tool is designed to help small businesses overcome some of the challenges associated with the start-up phase, such as access to capital or supportive resources, and grow their business. The navigator can be found at http://smallbiz.jerseycitynj.gov/.

“Small, locally-owned businesses are the key to any city’s long-term success, serving not just as a driver of commerce but of culture as well. So as Jersey City continues to grow, my administration will continue working to protect and support our small businesses,” said Mayor Fulop. “This online tool is a one-stop-shop of resources and another example of our steadfast commitment to our local business growth.”

The Small Business Navigator was developed through a collaborative effort between the Mayor’s Office of Innovation and the local Jersey City small businesses community. It is designed to serve as a “one-stop shop” online portal for small businesses. Currently the portal includes the following: • A directory of small businesses throughout the city, with 114 already listed and more added regularly

Mayor Steven M. Fulop • A reference guide of important city ordinances and State requirements that apply to businesses • A comprehensive guide to resources and support available to small businesses including available funding and professional development opportunities • A listing of commercial spaces available for rent • An event calendar with a listing of upcoming professional development classes for business owners, as well as ribbon cuttings and other events and promotions related to small businesses in Jersey City The site is expected to grow as more businesses, resources, and events are added.

The tool is just the latest in a series of steps taken by the Fulop administration to support Jersey City’s small businesses.

City offers Program To Earn High School Diploma

PATERSON, New Jersey: aterson Public Schools has entered into a lease agreement with the City of Paterson to utilize downtown building space (located at 77 Ellison Street) for the purpose of launching a new alternative learning program for students to fulfill their high school graduation requirements.

The Extended Learning Opportunity Program is now available to Paterson students who have dropped out of high school; and provides them with a path towards earning their high school diploma or GED via a “blended learning” approach (i.e. a mix of online and in-class course offerings).

Participating students will be required to have approximately 30 high school credits, and upon enrollment into the program, a Personalized Learning Plan will be created to ensure each student has the best chance for success – which includes rigorous coursework, face-toface instruction, tutoring assistance, weekly conferences with content area teachers, and online technical support if needed. Prospective students for this program are currently being identified by the district.

“One of our district’s core beliefs is that every child can achieve at high levels and it is the responsibility of educators to create environments where student learning can occur,” said Superintendent, Dr. Donnie Evans. “This new program will provide an alternative path for the young men and women of Paterson who gave up on school for one reason or another, but who want the opportunity to try again. Certainly, their best chance for success in this highly competitive, global world begins with earning a high school diploma.”

Additionally, this facility will be used as one of several locations throughout the City to help bring the Paterson Library closer to its residents’ homes. As the city that offered this country one of its first free libraries, Paterson is now offering a free mobile app that can be downloaded and bring the library right to your phone – or residents can visit the 77 Ellison Street location during set hours of operation and will have access to a “Virtual Library” that includes a wide range of books and audio books that can be downloaded, online magazines, World Book Online and Newspapers Direct, which offers papers from around the world.

BEAUTY CARE

African-American hair: Tips for everyday care

U

nique in appearance and structure, African-American hair is especially fragile and prone to injury and damage. More than half of African-American women will cite thinning hair or hair loss as their top hair concern. Fortunately, there is a lot AfricanAmericans can do to help minimize damage and keep their hair beautiful.

To help African-Americans keep their hair healthy, dermatologists recommend the following tips: • Wash hair once a week or every other week: This will help prevent build-up of hair care products, which can be drying to the hair.

• Use conditioner: Use conditioner every time you wash your hair. Be sure to coat the ends of the hair with conditioner, as the ends are the oldest and most fragile part of your hair.

• Use a hot oil treatment twice a month: This adds additional moisture and elasticity to your hair.

• Use a heat protecting product before styling: Adding this to wet hair before styling will help minimize heat damage.

• Use caution with relaxers: To minimize hair damage, always go to a professional hair styl-

ist to ensure that the relaxer is applied safely.

Touch-ups should only be done every two to three months and only to newly grown hair.

Never apply relaxer to hair that has already been relaxed.

• Use ceramic combs or irons to press hair: If you would like to press or thermally straighten your hair, use a ceramic comb or iron and only do so once a week.

• Use a straightening device with a dial to ensure the device is not too hot.

• Use the lowest possible temperature setting that gives you the style you want. A higher temperature may be necessary for thicker, coarser hair.

• Make sure braids, cornrows or weaves are not too tight: If it hurts while your hair is being styled, ask the stylist to stop and redo it. Pain equals damage.

• See a board-certified dermatologist if you notice any changes in the texture or appearance of your hair. Even the slightest bit of noticeable thinning can be the start of hair loss.

The earlier hair loss is diagnosed, the more effectively it can be treated.

YOUR HOROSCOPES

ARIES A money matter could clear up for you around the May 6 New Moon. An overlooked detail may surface or perhaps someone will see things more easily from your standpoint.

TAURUS The May 6 New Moon is aimed straight at you, so start something special and change how you see yourself. You're more popular and have more people skills than you realize. Put your natural charm and talents to full use.

GEMINI Your stellar features, talents, and opinions will serve you best if you do things quietly. Let people come to you in private rather than ring your own bell and try to attract attention. Your inherent talents shine most brightly in more intimate settings.

CANCER You could be wildly popular under the New Moon on May 6. You may enjoy it more, too.

Shyness and reticence will not work for you now. Smile, embrace the social visibility, and get ready to make a lot of new friends. Be a social leader and speak your truth.

LEO The Sun trines Jupiter on May 3, simplifying some practical problem at work or home. Career and work shine brightly for you under the New Moon on May 6. Start a new project or new phase of an assignment that is already well in hand.

VIRGO Think big under the New Moon on May 6. Ask a big question or be drawn to a big issue, cause, or project. Step up and don't be shy about contacting an expert or notable person.

MAY 19-31, 2016 • STREET HYPE NEWSPAPER • 17

LIBRA You'll have the power to resolve a difficult matter under the New Moon on May 6. The issue may be of greater importance to someone dear to you than to you, and it could involve money, property, or something else of material value.

COMPUTER PROBLEMS?

SCORPIO Love shines brightly all around you under the May 6 New Moon. A charming, clever admirer could appear out of nowhere, or you may realize that you've greatly impressed and attracted the regard of someone you admire.

We will Fix Your Computer

SAGITTARIUS Be healthier and happier under the May 6 New Moon. Make slight changes in your diet or sleep schedule and feel revitalized. People notice your improved energy level. Friends and family compliment and encourage you.

CAPRICORN our craving for pure fun is lit up by the May 6 New Moon. Find joy in something new and stunning. Some friends may be unimpressed, but they'll be thrilled for you. Do it and see where it takes you!

AQUARIUS Is someone at home resisting your ideas or desires? That could stop after the New Moon on May 6. Or perhaps you've wanted to redesign or remodel a room or other private space. Start now and get cooperation and inspiration from everyone.

PISCES Friends and fun activities close to home are highlighted by the May 6 New Moon. Get important work out of the way before then, because you might want more time for socializing and simply hanging out with your favorite peeps.

M

y name is Jasmine Grant and I am an aspiring gospel artist. I started singing at the age of five but made my first appearance at the age of ten in which I was chosen to sing my school anthem at general devotion.

It was at that particular time my talent was noticed by my peers and teachers and was ask to perform at many different functions in which I proudly represented my school.

At the age of twelve I started to take my talent more serious and joined the school's choir because they were entering a talent competition called “All Together Sing” which would be broadcasted on national television.

I was chosen to lead sing in four of the many different songs that were performed by my school. We didn't win but I was excited about the exposure and the chance to perform on television.

At fifth form in high school my friend invited me to a church event and ask me to perform which I have being doing until this day.

I am a songwriter/singer and I also play the drum and piano. My dream is to be known locally and internationally and to be a role model for my fans. My intention is to have a positive impact on followers.

I am working on my new single call “My Life” which is expected to be release soon and to do well as soon as it hits the market.

TILIBOP

ILIBOP refers to ‘Teaching is love, intelligence breathes opportunity and prosperity!’

‘Do not go where the path leads, go where there is no path and blaze a trail,’ this is the mantra that has kept Tilibop doing just that, as the talented, innovator of the Reggae Music Alternative Movement.

Tilibop’s music has garnered him rave reviews. Coming from humble beginnings, this reggae sensation had an appreciation for music, as a young child from St. Mary, Jamaica, he grew up amidst the turmoil in the streets of August Town, Jamaica.

Initially, listening to music served as an escape from life’s daily struggles, however, the music found the entertainer in him in a surprising way. While singing to a friend, a stranger overheard his melodic voice and invited him to a recording session.

Unhappy with his first session, Tilibop, was determined to not only improve but to excel. He went home, wrote a song and practiced fervently until something stirred within him. He hasn’t looked back since that fateful day twelve years ago. It is that same introspective quality and work ethic that makes Tilibop the consummate vocalist he is today.

He loves and appreciates all genres of music, from old school soul: The Beatles, Nina Simone, Pavarotti, to name a few. His roots are in Reggae and his Reggae Music

Tilibop Alternative Movement is music with substance that can provide great dancing grooves, while providing thought provoking lyrics. Tilibop is currently recording with one of Jamaica’s top recording company Truck Back Records. He is also looking forward to releasing his first EP in the near future.

One of his intentions is to expand the listening base for Reggae music. He is passionate, focused and gifted. With his exceptional talent, it is only a matter of time before he captures the attention of music lovers around the world! www.twitter.com/tilibop www.instagram.com/tilibop www.facebook.com/tilibopmogul soundcloud.com/tilibop-freeworll www.youtub.com/user/ti
