The inaugural run of the film festival will feature a wide variety of films tackling tough issues such as identity, family and poverty. "What is exciting about the International Faith and Family Film Festival is not only the number of films we have that tackle and address difficult issues, but the quality of the films is outstanding," said Bishop Jakes. "I'm thrilled to have these films as part of our discussions." Some of the films scheduled to be screened: "The Other Son" is a moving and challenging tale of two young men who discover they were accidentally switched at birth. Complex repercussions play out within two families as a son raised by a Jewish family discovers he is Arab by birth and a Palestinian family's adored youngest boy discovers he is Jewish. "Child 31" is an uplifting film that dramatizes a powerful means of feeding the hungry in developing countries. The documentary captures Mary's Meals' life-changing work in action throughout Malawi, Kenya and India, and its mission to help millions of children around the world realize their dreams. "Playin' for Love" is a romantic comedy that follows a high school basketball team's head coach and a single mother who helps turn the team's fortunes around. The City of Miami and the Miami Heat were partners in filming the movie in Miami, using local talent. "Grace Unplugged" is a musical drama about a beautiful young singer who gets the break of a lifetime and has her faith radically tested in the real world. The coming-of-age experience forces the singer to evaluate her values and whether she is willing to remain true to herself.

Kidd Kraddick remembered A celebration of the life of radio personality and philanthropist Kidd Kraddick, featuring the Jonas Brothers in downtown Dallas will be held on Thursday, August 15,

2013. According to a report from the Jefferson Parish Coroner’s Office

w w w. G A R L A N D J O U R N A L . co m

stated that Kraddick died from an “enlarged heart, blocked arteries and most likely an irregular heartbeat.” Born David Peter Cradick on August 22, 1959 in Napoleon, OH., the popular “Kidd” and grew up in Dunedin, Florida. At the time of his death on July 27, 2013, he was attending an annual fundraiser in Lousisiana for his charity, “Kidd’s Kids.” Kidd Kraddick decided on his career while serving as 10th grade class president. “We sponsored a big dance for the seniors but didn’t have enough money to hire a DJ. So I snuck out my dad’s stereo and did it myself.” From then on, he was hooked. After stints as a nighttime teen idol in

Miami, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles and Tampa (where he was given the name “Kidd” by a program director), Kraddick took his show to Dallas, where he quickly made the transition to morning drive. In 2001, the show was syndicated and is now heard in nearly 100 cities across the country and worldwide on AFN (American Forces Radio). The show can also be seen live each day on KiddTV, hosted by uStream and viewed on KiddNation.com. The show is like a daily soap opera featuring the real lives of its cast. But it’s not just the openness of the show that has driven its ratings to the top in virtually every possible demographic.

Come on PEOPLE! Don’t you CARE? POLICE have not apprehended Pookie the serial rapist. Aren’t you concerned? Do you care? We know he has attacked members of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. and there is a $5,000 reward offered by Crime Stoppers. If you have ANY information, PLEASE call Crime Stoppers

Show your school pride, help raise $150,000 Allstate and the Tom Joyner Foundation are working together to engage students, alumni and supporters of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) across the country to raise scholarship funds as part of the fifth annual Allstate Quotes for Education program. For every person who receives an insurance quote from a participating Allstate agent and mentions Quotes for Education between August 1 and Nov. 30, 2013, Allstate will donate $10, up to a total donation of $150,000. The funds will be donated to the Tom Joyner Foundation and earmarked for general scholarship funds to assist students attending HBCUs.

For the second year, participants in this program will also have a chance to vote for the HBCU of their choice to receive an additional $50,000 donation for scholarships. In 2012, Lincoln University of Missouri won the inaugural competition and distributed scholarship funds to 25 students. To participate in the Quotes for Education program, HBCU supporters should visit allstate.com/represent to find a nearby participating agent or receive a quote online. Supporters are then encouraged to vote for the HBCU of their choice. “We know that cuts to student loan programs over the past few yeats are

hurting students all over the country, but these cuts are particularly detrimental to students attending HBCUs,” said Cheryl Harris, senior vice president at Allstate. “Allstate and the Tom Joyner Foundation are passionate about helping these students pursue their dreams as we continue to support programs like Quotes for Education.” “We are dedicated to helping shape our future through the growth of today’s students,” said Tom Joyner, chairman and founder of the 14-yearold foundation bearing his name. “Every dollar we contribute inspires ambition and helps a student reach their goals and their potential.”

SHARPTON: Support for March on Washington Dear Members, Supporters, and Partners:

On Saturday, August 24, 2013 we will gather at 8AM at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC to stand together against the recent attack on voter rights, against Stand Your Ground and racial profiling, and to continue to raise awareness on unemployment, poverty, gun violence, immigration, gay rights

and other critical issues affecting our nation. 50 years ago when we marched on Washington it was an historic event that lead to the passage of the very civil rights legislation that ended Jim Crow and began the modern era of civil rights. It brought us our dignity, our humanity and our march to realize the dream that so many had given their lives for. 50 years later we need you as much as we did in 1963. Today, the first African American President in the history of our nation sits in the White House. That would not have been possible without the 1965 Voting Rights Act. The

Supreme Court in the final days of its term this year has struck down Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act and thereby have place our right to vote in jeopardy. We must turn out by the hundreds of thousands in Washington DC on August 24th and we need your financial commitment to ensure our success. Last montjh we held vigils in 100 cities across the nation for Trayvon Martin. These vigils were a huge success because of all of you. Now, it is critical that we harness this heightened awareness of our collective strength to sustain a movement.

Your support will help us to cover increased costs to make August 24th a huge success. Support the March by making a donation to the National Action Network. Your support will ensure that our voices are heard as we continue to realize the dream of Dr. Martin L. King, Jr. Your donation can be made online or by mailing a check or money order to: National Action Network 106 West 145th Street New York, NY 10039

Another March, Another Dream

50 Years After Martin Luther King Jr. Made History

as close as they could get to the great, marble-columned memorial containing the statue of Abraham Lincoln, they waited. It was there, at the broad white steps of the Lincoln Memorial that the leaders of the March had gathered. Among them were A. Philip Randolph, director of the March and founder of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, Roy Wilkins â&#x20AC;&#x201C; leader of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), Rabbi Joachim Prinz, president of the American Jewish Council, a Berlin rabbi of the Hitler era, and Walter Reuther leader of the United Automobile Workers. (UAW). One by one, leaders exhorted the listening crowd. Randolph described the gathering as "the largest demonstration in the history of this nation." Reuther pictured the March as a "great crusade to mobilize the moral conscience of America." Rabbi Prinz warned, "bigotry and hatred are not the most urgent problems," but that "the most urgent, the most disgraceful, the most tragic problem is silence." Recalling Nazi Germany, he added: "A great people, which had created a great civilization, had become a nation of silent onlookers. They remained silent in the face of hate, in the face of brutality, in the face of mass

murder. America must not become a nation of silent onlookers...." Before and between the speeches there was music. Marian Anderson sang. Mahalia Jackson sang. Finally, it was time for Dr. Martin Luther King to present his historic dream speech. Beginning by describing the gathering as "the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation," Dr. King went on to warn against "drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred." He also warned against allowing "our creative protests to degenerate into physical violence." Instead, he advised "meeting physical force with soul force." Finally, with his words resonating among the multitudes like great waves of light, Dr. King intoned: "I have a dream.... I have a dream.... I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream...." In the fifty years that have followed that march, Dr. King's words have echoed everywhere and inspired multitudes. Today, senior citizens who came to the march still remember. One retired octogenarian now living in Florida insists: "It was one of the most

important experiences of my life." But beyond dreams, what is the reality? What can and should be celebrated by the Fiftieth Anniversary March on Washington on August 28, 2013? On the Mall, not far from the Lincoln Memorial, there is a much-visited granite memorial to Dr. King dedicated in 2011. Yet elsewhere, in places such as Stamford, Florida, and Chicago, Illinois, violence continues. The tragic killings of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Stamford and of 15-year-old Hadiya Pendelton in Chicago engender painful questions. How can the "soul force" Dr. King recommended as an alternative to "physical violence" be engendered, employed, promoted? If there are answers, who has them? Amidst contemporary pain and confusion, the dreams of Dr. King linger and inspire. To have a dream and work for it may be the only answer. Â

Newtown, Connecticut is beyond comprehension. Twenty children, their teachers and aides, their school principal, shot repeatedly by a 20-year-old wielding a semiautomatic assault weapon. This follows the recent Sign the Petition movie theater attack in Aurora, Colorado and multiple college The horror of the Sandy Hook campus and high school shootings Elementary School massacre in over the past years.

And daily in major cities like Chicago, the trauma builds. This year as of Dec. 10, Chicago has witnessed 485 killed in gun violence, 125 under the age of 18. As of 2009, there were an estimated 310 million non-military firearms owned in America. The country is saturated with guns. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to take action. None of us is safe in a nation where assault

weapons are readily available. We need to revive the ban on assault weapons now.

by Elisabeth Stevens It was a time of terror and trouble. In the years before and after the historic March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom of August 28, 1963, there were repeated and widespread acts of violence. In Birmingham, Alabama, earlier that summer, four young black girls died in a church bombing. Near Philadelphia, Mississippi, less than a year later, three Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) civil rights workers: Michael Schwerner, James Chaney and Andrew Goodman were murdered and buried in an earthen dam. Nevertheless, on that hot summer day fifty years ago, an estimated 250,000 people came to Washington peacefully from all over America. They gathered downtown in the long Mall between the Capitol and the Potomac River. Around the spire of the Washington Monument, beneath the spreading trees, beside the long, quiet reflecting pool, and

Rev. Jesse L. Jackson,Sr.

But the 1963 March was titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;March on Washinton for Jobs and Freedom.â&#x20AC;? Economic opportunity was at its center. As a key organizer of the march, A. Philip Randolph, president of the Negro American Labor Council, put it:

scarred by the â&#x20AC;&#x153;savage inequalityâ&#x20AC;? of public funding. African Americans are still two times more likely to be unemployed than whites. Affordable housing remains beyond reach. Adequate public transport to allow access to jobs has declined, not improved. And in our inner cities and barrios, clean water, sound sewage, healthy food and good parks grow ever more rare.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have no future in a society in which 6 million black and white people are unemployed and millions more live in poverty.

Nor is the goal of our civil rights The 50th anniversary must revive the revolution merely the passage of civil movement to address this unfinished rights legislation. Yes, we want all public agenda.

We have made great progress since 1963. American apartheid in the South was outlawed. Overt racial discrimination is against the law. No longer must African Americans move to the back of the bus. But the agenda of economic justice remains unfinished. The demands of the marchers in 1963 resonate today: full employment, affordable housing, equal and excellent public education, a minimum wage the equivalent of $13 an hour in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s terms. We argued in 1963 that removing

Dr. Martin Luther King taught us that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.â&#x20AC;? In this time of extreme inequality, equal opportunity will not be bestowed by the privileged; it must be demanded by working and poor people. Working and poor people, across regions and religions and race, must come together to transform our national politics and priorities. The 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington For Jobs and Freedom provides the opportunity to revive the full breadth of Dr. Kingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dream and the full scope of the challenge to reach it. - See more at: http://rainbowpush.org/commentaries/ single/kings_march_was_for_jobs_and_ freedom#sthash.ilO30Vsh.dpuf Over the past forty years, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Jr. has played a pivotal role in virtually every movement for empowerment, peace, civil rights, gender equality, and economic and social justice. On August 9, 2000, President Bill Clinton awarded Reverend Jackson the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highest civilian honor. -

In having the conversation about building within South Dallas, many issues arise with respect to GWENDOLYNand JONES education business in Ask The Advocate See ROAD, page 19

PROPOSITIONS 1 AND 2 Why YES means no and NO means yes Dallas is abuzz at the election issues before them on May 9 when citizens are asked to vote on the controverDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;LYTE sial & EBONY Convention Music Happenings Center Hotel that is being backed by Mayor Leppert. But what does voting â&#x20AC;&#x153;noâ&#x20AC;? and voting â&#x20AC;&#x153;yesâ&#x20AC;? mean? It is important to remember that the propositions are to amend the Dallas City Charter which, among other things, gives the MISSpower RAY to acquire city the Going Deep Roots property in fortheany public purpose. The propositions are worded to prohibit the city from acting on these before stated powers. Therefore, if a citizen would like the city to maintain those powers, they are to vote NO and vice versa.

Spiritually Speaking…

Obedience ...

By James A. Washington

Jesus says, “If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching.” John 14:23. It seems to me that what is of importance here is recognizing the difference between “having” to obey and “wanting” to obey.

My point is that obedience to God has so much more to do with wanting to do the right thing for the right reason, than doing the right thing because it is the law. One is the result of relationship, while the other is the result of fear of consequence.

“MAGICAL”

“WONDROUS”

“AMAZING”

us the source and nature of the consequences. The discipline that results from wrongdoing and wrong thinking comes from one place, love. If you can’t remember this, let me remind you that it’s that “this is going to hurt me more than it will you” thing. Christ is merely reminding us that if you love Him, then obey His rules, His teachings, which were given to us out of the love of the Father. Remember where they come from and why. Our desire to please should override our fear of discipline. My point is that obedience to God has so much more to do with wanting to do the right thing for the right reason, than doing the right thing because it is the law. One is the result of relationship, while the other is the result of fear of consequence. Throughout scripture, Jesus

In our world, when parents enforce rules and discipline, the desire is that a relationship of respect and love will develop and the children will respond accordingly, whether the parents are within earshot or not; whether it will get back to them or not. Prayerfully, the hope is that the child will want to comply with an understanding that in the end, he or she will be better for it. If all one does is obey rules because of consequences and punishment, then rules generally get thrown out the window, when the rule maker is not around. I guess what I’m trying to say and what Jesus is alluding to is when grounded in love, people want to respond favorably, if for no other reason than to look good in the eyes of the person they are trying to impress. What Christ is saying is the same thing that many a mother and a father want to believe about their kids. If we’re honest with ourselves, we all know what behavior would upset Mom and Dad. We know this because they have spent a lifetime (yours and mine) instilling values and integrity into our character and hopefully into our very natures. You might still do things they wouldn’t condone, but you certainly know the difference between right and wrong because of your upbringing. That upbringing, if nurtured in the spirit of love, reveals to all of

constantly refers to the love of the Father. How many of you do what your mother would expect of you and she’s been dead for years? How many of you find yourselves passing along those same expectations to your children and are ready to pounce if you see disobedience? Why? I submit that you do this because of the relationship you have or had with your parents. This relationship thing serves us all well when we contemplate obedience. It’s a love thing. It’s a “want to” thing. “I will not speak with you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold on me, but the world must learn that I love the Father and I do exactly what my Father has commanded me.” John 14:30-31. To obey should be an act of love. As children this might be difficult to understand. As Christian adults, it shouldn’t be. Our goal should be to recognize God’s love for us and simply do our best to return it; act accordingly so to speak. May God bless and keep you always.

He told me that he has been going with my cousin for the past 11 years all the time he was involved with me. Oh by the way, we have lived together for the past 15 years. Yes, it took 14 years for him to propose marriage. I have been happy with him. I have worked the entire time in a high paying career. Because of the recent discovery should I give him up? Doris

Dear Doris: Let me tell you this: Time moves rapidly and does not stand still for anyone. I want you to search the laws for your state regarding â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;common lawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; marriage. However, if your fiancĂŠ has nothing then sorry lady, you will get nothing. I congratulate you for having a good career. At least you have not been a kept woman. If you leave him, you can financially survive and believe me, you do need to leave him. Do not focus on the years gone by. Focus now on going forward with your life finding happiness within yourself. I know to understand your cousinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s affair with your man is hurtful. But maybe she and your fiancĂŠ are compatible - you know...having a lack of principles. Not only will you need to part from your fiancĂŠ, but also put distance between you and your cousin. Sometimes with family you have to step back, go around, go under, or go over the bridge of unfaithfulness and wrongdoings. Doris, let me tell you something else: You asked if you should give him up. Think about it. It seems you never had him --- to begin with. Gwen

Horowitz played a key role in arranging transportation for demonstrators coming from around the country to Washington, D.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and Horowitz helped to recruit her friend, now- U.S. Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC) to become a March 4/2#(7/ organizer. an What was it ultimately all for?

But, Lewis also describes the obsessive concern from the Kennedy Administration regarding the March â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and specifically his planned remarks. Originally, Lewis planned to include a call to continue marching â&#x20AC;&#x153;through the heart of Dixie, the way Sherman didâ&#x20AC;? and wanted to demand, â&#x20AC;&#x153;which side is the federal government on?â&#x20AC;? Fears that Lewisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; speech would incite violence and offend the Kennedys, however, led to an urgent, last-minute conversation with Randolph and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; intended to persuade Lewis to amend and soften his remarks: â&#x20AC;&#x153;And, Mr. Randolph said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;John, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come this far together. Can you change this? Can you delete that? Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stay together.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? International actor and singer Harry Belafonte leveraged his celebrity to heighten awareness to the struggles and violence happening in the South, raised funds for civil rights actions, and recruited other celebrities to participate in the March. Belafonte attributes the multicultural, multifaith, multidisciplinary legacy of the March as the reason why the achievement continues to inspire younger generations â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and people all over the world.
