The Los Angeles and San Diego school districts, the two largest in California with a combined K-12 student population of about 720,000, announced Monday they won’t bring students back to classrooms next month because of rising coronavirus hospitalizations and infection rates.

The Mount Hope Cemetery Memorial, a Confederate monument, has been removed in San Diego

By Elizabeth Castillo CALMatters

As the U.S. reckons once again with racial inequities, it’s triggered a new round of calls to remove statues and monuments idolizing Confederate leaders and those who enslaved people. While Mississippi is retiring its Confederate battle flag and Alabama and Georgia join the movement to topple bronze statues, California is not without its vestiges of racism and oppression.

“You do have a deep link between Southern California and the Confederacy,” said Ryan Keating, an associate professor of history at California State University, San Bernardino. “In the wake of the war, you have Southern veterans who relocate to Southern California en masse and when they arrive, they attempt to memorialize their service through the creation of monuments.”

Keating said these monuments frequently coincide with other historical events. For example, a number of Confederate monuments were erected in the early 1950s shortly after the Supreme Court ruling on Brown v. Board of Education which declared state-sanctioned segregation unconstitutional.

See MONUMENTS page 2

School leaders said there is too much uncertainty surrounding the safety of students and staff to try to return pupils to classrooms right away so they will continue the distance learning that was employed for the final months of the spring semester.

DETAILS ABOUT THE CITY OF SAN DIEGO’S COVID-19

“There’s a public health imperative to keep schools from becoming a petri dish,’’ said Austin Beutner, superintendent of the Los Angeles Unified School District _ the second-largest public school district in the country. ``The health and safety of all in the school community is not something we can compromise.’’

In a letter to parents, Cindy Marten, superintendent of the San Diego Unified School District, said nothing was decided beyond beginning the academic year online. An Aug. 10 update will address the possibility of returning to in-person instruction later on.

“We will get back there, but we just can’t start there,’’ she wrote.

On June 30th, 2020, the City Council voted to establish and expand a COVID-19 Rental Assistance Program to help struggling city residents pay rent. A Memorandum of Understanding with the San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC) will authorize the administration of the program, which will be executed with the use of $15,100,000 in CARES ACT Federal Funding.

The Chief Financial Officer will transfer $15.1 million of coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act Funds to SDHC to provide oversight and administration

NATIONAL URBAN LEAGUE REPORTS 2010

Census Omitted 3.7 Million Blacks Excerpt of an article

by Hazel Trice Edney A special report released by the National Urban League reveals that the U. S. Census Bureau omitted at least 3.7 million African-Americans from its 2010 count, nearly five times the 800,000 “undercount” that the bureau has long reported.

Largely due to the Coronavirus, the sluggish response

to the 2020 Census count now underway is on track for the same or even worse results, NUL predicts. The organization says the Black community stands to lose billions of dollars and significant political power if something is not done quickly to speed up and establish a more accurate count.

“As a gauge, last decade, 9% of Black people in the U.S. (approximately 3.7 million people), were missed in See CENSUS page 2

ital learning amid strong concerns from teachers unions and as local leaders push Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration for clearer guidelines on what classroom learning should look like.

Oakland and San Bernardino districts are among those that already have said they’ll start off with distance learning. Some districts are considering a mix of distance learning and classroom instruction with few students in the room..

Newsom, a Democrat, applauded Los Angeles and San Diego but stressed that each district has unique needs. The power on whether to reopen rests with local districts and boards, but his administration has issued recommendations for schools.

Newsom said he approved more rules Friday on masks, sports, singing, busing and other school activities, but his administration did not immediately make them public. ``A few things are non-negotiable: Our children’s health and the absolute essential importance of educating our children,’’ Newsom said Monday.

Schools across California closed in March as the state was ramping up virus-related restrictions. The move to distance learn-

Applicants willing to apply must have incurred financial hardships due to COVID-19.

To disburse funds fairly and to those who are most in need, the SDHC implemented a lottery and system of prioritization.

Molly Chase, City of San Diego Chief of Staff said the program was established for “households living in a market-rate unit with a San Diego address who have experienced a significant loss of income due to COVID-19 and who had a gross household income less than

school employees, said Monday it sent a letter to Newsom and the Legislature asking state leaders to delay the physical reopening of schools and provide stronger direction to counties that ``have been left on their own to make the difficult decision on whether it is safe to reopen schools.’’

Both the state Department of Education and Department of Public Health have released guidance for districts to follow when reopening, which include implementing temperature checks for students, remaking activities such as lunch and recess, and recommending cloth face coverings.

``We urge the Governor to take action and delay the reopening of schools until we can guarantee our schools are safe. The stakes are as high as it gets, and we have only one chance to get this right,’’ CFT President Jeff Freitas said in a statement.

Still, teachers are calling on the state to put clearer guidelines and rules in place for reopening.

On Friday, leaders of the Los Angeles teachers union called for campuses to remain closed and for distance learning to continue due to the surging numbers of cases in Los Angeles County. ``We all want to physically open schools and be back with our students, but lives hang in the balance. Safety has to be the priority. We need to get this right for our communities’’ United Teachers Los Angeles President Cecily Myart-Cruz said in a statement last week.

The state’s two largest teachers’ unions have expressed similar concerns.

The California Federation of Teachers, which represents 120,000 teachers and

The California Teachers’ Association, which represents 310,000 members, said pointedly on Friday: ``We cannot reopen schools until it is safe.’’

CTA President E. Tony Boyd listed some of the needs for schools to stay safe: increased testing for students and staff, rapid notification of tests and contact tracing, all of which requires more funding at a time of budget cuts.

In San Diego and Los Angeles, the districts said guidelines that have come out have been ``vague and contradictory`` and that California’s ``skyrocketing infection rates of the past few weeks make it clear the pandemic is not under control.’’

The program excludes those receiving assistance through Section 8 vouchers, those who have savings above $4,000, or who have savings that do meet their housing needs. Applicants will be required to submit a self-certification about their savings when applying.

10% of the funding from the CARES Act will be reserved for paid assistance to qualifying non-profits for tenant outreach, administration, legal assistance, and education, To apply, an online application portal will be created on the San Diego Housing

Monuments: continued from page 1

“These monuments and these memorials tend to be in very public places,” Keating said. “They coincide with moments in which African Americans seem to be gaining some political power or voice and they’re designed with a very specific intent of protecting a certain type of power and serving as a reminder of who’s in control.”

In California, a handful of highway markers and cemetery memorials remained visible but the Black Lives Matter movement quickly pushed the state to eradicate them completely. Some of the markers were erected by the United Daughters of the Confederacy, a historical group dedicated to “honoring the memory of its Confederate ancestors” and labeled neo-Confederate by the Southern Poverty Law Center. The organization still exists today.

“The United Daughters of the Confederacy totally denounces any individual or group that promotes racial divisiveness or white supremacy,” says a statement by President General Nelma Crutcher on the organization’s national homepage. “We are saddened that some people find anything connected with the Confederacy to be offensive. Our Confederate ancestors were and are Americans. We as an Organization do not sit in judgment of them nor do we impose the standards of the 19th century on Americans of the 21st century.”

The application can only be accessed online.

Therefore, renters in need without internet access or those in need of assistance will work with a community-based organization to complete the application process. The applicants who meet the eligibility requirements will then be entered into a lottery system, ranked, and prioritized.

Once the applicant is confirmed and eligible, the SDHC staff will coordinate with the selected applicant and their landlord or

property manager to disperse the payment.

The payment will be dispersed electronically to ensure tenants receive it in a timely manner. The Housing Committee will verify unit ownership, establish the landlord or property management company as a vendor, and receive documentation to enable them to receive a direct deposit payment.

Household Renters will be able to receive a one-time maximum payment of $4,000 through the emergency assistance program, with the hopes that 3,500 families will be assisted. If denied by the rental assistance program, due to immigration status, the application system will track applications that are denied in case a funding source is identified and allocated that does not have this restriction, in which case, the household will also have an opportunity to receive rental assistance.

Supporting our Veterans!

By Larry Price President & CEO

NEVER LEAVE ONE BEHIND

Dear Friends: We have all seen the devastation caused by COVID-19. Job loss, school closures and food shortages are just a few effects of this time of crisis. Many families, veterans and seniors are being hard-hit by the effects of this virus and are struggling to keep their heads above water.

The purpose of NEVER LEAVE ONE BEHIND (NLOB) for over two decades has been the well-being of veterans and families in need in San Diego County. We are a non-profit 501(c)3 organization (EIN# 45-4436861). NLOB is fully staffed by unpaid volunteers, and we are dedicated and committed to providing veterans and their families with benefit education and advocacy, career training, employment re-entry counseling, mental health services, food, housing, and non-emergency medical transportation.

During the current pandemic, NLOB and FRIENDS OF THE POOR, a La Jolla based non-profit organization, have come together to support families, and struggling family-owned small business. Our goal is to provide funding for 1000 students to get haircuts provided by small shops and hand-made masks at no cost to the

student. There are many additional costs associated with re-opening a small business. For many, the cost of re-opening is overwhelming. The aim of NEVER LEAVE ONE BEHIND & FRIENDS OF THE POOR is to support small business while assisting families in need.

Never Leave One Behind needs your help more than ever in these trying times. Hunger is a constant issue for families. Never Leave One Behind receives many calls each day from families and homebound senior veterans requesting food. Unfortunately, the Never Leave One Behind Food Pantry is now completely depleted. We need your help to restock the Pantry so that we can help meet this urgent need.

Veterans and families are struggling, and we desperately need your help. Please donate today by sending a generous tax-deductible contribution to Never Leave One Behind at P.O. BOX 152344 San Diego, CA 92195, or you can donate via PAYPAL by going to our website, www.neverleaveonebehind.org and clicking on the “DONATE” tab then clicking on the green “DONATE NOW” button or the yellow “Donate” button.

Thank you in advance for your generosity in contributing to making San Diego a better place for veterans, children, and families in need. Please call 619-255-4134 for more information.

Sincerely, Larry Price, President & CEO NEVER LEAVE ONE BEHIND

the 2010 Census - an “omission” rate higher than any other racial or ethnic group,” says NUL’s 12-page “State of the 2020 Census” report released June 17. “Preliminary assessments of 2020 Census household response rates to date, portend the potential loss of billions of dollars in federal funding allocations, power and political representation for the Black population, if nothing is done to stop this trend.”

Using the mapping tool of the City University of New York (CUNY), the NUL reports that “currently, approximately 25% of households residing in predominantly Black areas are in the bottom 20% of response rates (below 50%),” so far.

Among the report’s key findings: • Young Black Children are poised to experience historic undercounts in the 2020 Census...Seven out of 10 black and brown children 0-5 years old were not counted in the 2010 Census.

• Several large cities and jurisdictions with predominate or large Black populations trail their state response rates by 10 or more percentage points (i.e., St. Louis, Mo., Los Angeles, Calif., Miami, Fla., and Detroit, Mich.

• The U.S. Census Bureau’s enumeration of persons experiencing homelessness has not occurred.

• The U.S. Census Bureau’s difficulty in rescheduling the enumeration

of college and university students and conducting outreach targeting these communities with clear and concise guidance, will impact local communities and the black count overall, if not corrected.

• An undercount of the Black population in southern states will impact the overall Black count in America.

One U.S. Census Regional Census Center is responsible for enumerating seven states (Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana), with significant Black populations in the 2020 Census.

The Census count started April 1.

People can respond by phone, mail or online. Through July, August, September, and October, Census workers will escalate their attempts to count college students; plus anyone who has not responded by going to homes until the end of October.

Civil rights organizations have gone into high gear with an educational campaign pushing the importance of an accurate Census count to the Black community and other communities of color. Yet, it appears that the extent of the Census omissions in 2010 is now being widely reported for the first time.

NUL President/CEO Marc H. Morial said in a release accompanying the report, “Historically, African Americans have been undercounted each decade. Approximately 3.7 million African Americans were entirely uncounted in the 2010 Census. The 2020 Census raises new risks and uncertainties that put an already vulnerable Black count at extreme risk.”

EDITORIAL:

This Paper, You and the Pandemic

By Dr. John E. Warren Publisher

The San Diego Voice & Viewpoint would like to take this opportunity to not only thank you for your continued support and allowing us to serve you during this very difficult time for everyone. We thought it important to also take a moment to highlight a few of our efforts during this pandemic.

As you might know, we have now placed the newspaper online each week, free of charge. This allows greater reach and timely receipt of the information we are providing in partnership with the County of San Diego’s Health and Human Services Agency, as well as information from the Governor and local municipalities in San Diego County. We realize that many in our community are not on the internet for a variety of reasons.

We are also placing over 2000 copies of the newspaper each week in food distribution bags and boxes, at no charge, to ensure that those who need information most have access to it. We are monitoring the testing sites such as Tubman/Chavez where numbers have increased since we spoke to the County about initial low response when they opened as a “State” testing site. The County quickly switched locations, making Tubman/Chavez a county testing site under a countywide public health order by Dr. Wilma Wooten which made it possible for everyone to do walk up testing without calling for a doctor’s prescription.

The site has been so successful that now the issue is getting enough testing supplies.

We have also partnered with the Jacobs Center for Neighborhood Innovation as a resource center, the information of which can be found on their billboard at Market

Creek. We could not make our newspapers available each week if it were not for the volunteers and workers at My Brother’s Keeper, Mosque # 8, Paving Great Futures, 5K Hip Hop Wellness Project, Community First Responders, Strike Force, East County Feeding America efforts, Bethel Baptist Church food distribution, First Methodist of Chollas View, New Paradise Church and New Life Church. As well as George Stevens Senior Center twice a month.

We are trying to highlight Black and African businesses in our community so that we may spend with them when possible during this economic downturn. We continue to welcome and cover your stories, celebrate your triumphs and help mourn your losses. We are moving toward daily online postings on our website and we invite you to use our Facebook Community Events page to give notice of your events. If you do not advertise the events with the newspaper, your items will be removed from the Events page. It is not a substitute for advertising with the newspaper. We still have production and distribution costs and we are not a nonprofit organization and, therefore, do not receive any nonprofit grants.

The newspaper is an essential service and, as such, we are open internally. This means we receive at the door notices and payments and we continue to publish weekly since we are a legal newspaper. We can be reached online, or by phone, Monday through Thursday from 9:30 till 3:30pm.

We salute our many volunteers and we urge you to stay prayerful and stay safe.

We believe from the very depth of our beings that there will be no peace until there is justice.

If you respect Black lives, as your corporate statements so proudly declare, you will respect Black voices and listen to your workers when they say that enough is enough. All labor has dignity. All labor has worth. We demand that you respect ours.

Your Baseless Attack on Dr. Wilma Wooten A Letter to KUSI Management

By Clovis M. Honoré Dear KUSI Management, In the wake of outright public attacks on San Diego County Public Health Officer Dr. Wilma Wooten, MD, MPH and the San Diego County Department of Health and Human Services for doing the exact job we are paying them to do, I find it shocking that your morning anchors, Paul Rudy and Lauren Finney would make unsubstantiated statements suggesting there is bias in the way the County is managing this unprecedented health and economic crisis. They suggested, without presenting any evidence whatsoever, that there must be an

increase in COVID-19 infections related to protest, and that there was bias in the County’s reporting because they did not say so.

Such baseless on-air attacks on a Black woman who is a leading public figure, and who has already been harrassed by thoughtless community members runs the risk of putting her further into harm’s way.

Perhaps they were not on the phone yesterday with a friend, as I was, who stated that a member of their household had died from complications related to COVID-19. Perhaps they have the privilege of not having been touched by the devastation

this virus has unleashed. Perhaps, because they still have their jobs, this is not serious to them. Perhaps because they have never had to stand in front of the community and make the hard decisions, they can stand on the sidelines and throw rocks at those of us who are engaged in serving the community every day.

It is important that news agencies like yours and their reporters and anchors hold the truth and integrity in high regard. To malign the work of our public servants through innuendo and without facts to support their statements is disrespect-

ful and hurtful in the very least, and potentially dangerous in the polarized climate in which we currently live. Certainly, your reporters and anchors are entitled to their opinions and apparently you allow them to make these kinds of statements on the air. However, I would think that some degree of journalistic integrity and concern for our public servants would prompt your station and its representatives to do the research and present the evidence that supports their position.

I hope and pray that you and your representatives will communicate with Dr. Wooten and the County of

San Diego and take appropriate corrective action regarding this matter.

I am sharing this email with a few community members who I think would also be concerned about this behavior.

Peace.

Be The Right Person, In The Right Place, At The Right Time, Doing The Right Thing, In The Right Way, For The Right Reason.

“No one is coming to save us but us.”

ARTHUR CHARLES LANGLEY was born on August 19, 1957, to Estelle and Frederick Langley. He was the youngest of eleven children. Arthur was a true San Diegan raised in the city he loved. Faith in God was taught and encouraged by Arthur’s parents. They decided to baptize him early in life at the Messiah Lutheran Church. Arthur kept his faith in God as his foundation of life.

Arthur excelled throughout his school years. He attended Logan Elementary, Memorial Junior High School, and received his high school diploma from San Diego High School. After high school, Arthur began working at the San Diego Zoo, but soon found and pursued his passion to become a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). He received his CNA certification and quickly landed a job at the community hospital, where he worked for two years.

Arthur enjoyed life outside of school and worked very much. He embarked on the journey of parenthood with his love, Janet Denise Miller, and in 1984 he became a father to his only son, Eric. Arthur was a wonderful family man, and avid fisherman. He would go out on the boat with his brothers and nephews, anywhere they could drop a line. After a long day of fishing or a full day of work, you could find Arthur passing time watching old Western movies. He truly enjoyed being around family and friends. His friendly personality allowed him to converse with anyone who crossed his path.

We all know that Arthur was an extremely caring man. He became the caretaker for his brother Douglas, his son Eric, and his late mother Estelle. Talk about selflessness! Although our little brother and fisherman has been taken from us too soon, we must always remember Arthur for his kindness, his selflessness, and his funny and intelligent personality.

On June 23, 2020, Arthur Charles Langley was called home to rest. He was preceded in death by parents Frederick and Estelle Langley; siblings Phyllis, Frederick, Carol, Lewis, and Raymond.

Left to cherish his memory are son Eric; siblings Carl (Winnie), James, Douglas, Kathleen, Saundra, and Teddy; his soulmate Janet Denise Miller; and a large number of nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, extended family and friends.

RYAN MICHAEL WILSON was born to Gwendolyn and Gregory Wilson on October 7, 1991 in Burbank, California. He was fortunate enough to have a bonus family in Atlanta, Georgia, and as such he lived between California and Georgia a great part of his life.

Ryan attended Grayson High School in Atlanta, Georgia and Abraham Lincoln High School in San Diego, CA. In 2009, he graduated from Cesar Chavez Continuation School located in San Diego.

Ryan gave his life to Christ at an early age, and joined New Assurance Baptist Church. While there, he was an active member who participated in various activities including the youth choir. He later joined Greater Life Baptist Church.

Ryan enjoyed the work he did as a valet for Ace Parking. He also worked for other companies that allowed him to drive many different types of cars. He would always come home with stories about the tips he received and the unique cars he had an opportunity to drive. Ryan was also employed with Petco Park. He especially enjoyed working in the VIP section and listening to the stories of the staff and fans.

Ryan was a fun-loving, kind, big-hearted, and confident man who loved all of his family. He really enjoyed telling tales and joking with his sisters. Ryan took pride in being the self-proclaimed “best uncle ever.” He enjoyed fast cars, planes, board games, and fishing as some of his favorite past times. He was an avid movie watcher who was particularly fond of action and comedy movies. When he found one that he really liked he would do everything in his power to have you watch it so that he could tell you about his favorite part and laugh with you. Ryan was truly loved and will be greatly missed by everyone.

On June 22, 2020, Ryan Michael Wilson left time and entered into eternal rest.

He was preceded in death by his father Gregory Wilson.

Left to treasure Ryan’s memory are: mother Gwendolyn McSwain; sisters Shalondra Harris and Monique Wilson; brother Brandon Wilson; nephews Leeandrew, Leeantwan, Leearon Zhamir and Tony; bonus family Earnest and Delores Green; brothers Ernest Green, Jr., Miles Yates, Terrell Yates, and Jose Valadares.

ARRANGEMENTS BY PREFERRED CREMATION & BURIAL MILLARD ISAAC GAY was born to Digna Valle and Millard Roscoe Gay on February 11, 1995. He was affectionately known as “Isaac” and “Iceman” to his friends and family. He was a very smart and athletic child who pursued football, track, and weight lifting. Isaac excelled at everything he put his mind to do because he was always giving his best. He studied and graduated from San Pasqual Academy where he was a star athlete in both football and track.

After graduation, Isaac worked at the San Pasqual Valley Ranch where he tended to the care of horses and other livestock. Isaac was later employed as a courier by FedEx. Isaac “Iceman” was known to have a big heart. He loved children, and showed kindness and love to everyone. He had a radiant smile, and a huge laugh. He was always sharing funny things with other people, and could always see the funny side of a situation. He had an “old soul.” He would sing old songs that he learned from his father, as if he was there in the old days.

Isaac will be remembered for his kindness and positive attitude. He was exceedingly happy and had a forgiving heart. He loved to laugh, was full of life, and enjoyed being a willing participant in the center of life itself. He was truly a blessing that God let us enjoy. Isaac was deeply loved. He will be greatly missed, but never forgotten.

On June 26, 2020, Millard Isaac Gay, (also known as “Iceman”) got his wings, took flight, and is now in God’s care.

CONGRATULATIONS TO ISAIAH COLLINS WHITE! COURTESY OF CHANEL Y. WHITE, MA

After a bit of last-minute legislative maneuvering, the list of propositions that California voters will be asked to weigh in on has been — more or less — finalized.

Eight measures address matters as vital as voting rights, rent control, affirmative action, property tax law, dialysis clinic staffing requirements, stem cell research funding and the preservation or final dispatch of cash bail in California.

A MEASURE IS PROPOSED...

ISAIAH COLLINS WHITE He is a recent graduate of San Diego State University with a bachelor’s degree in Communications.

Although the recent pandemic resulted in a canceled ceremony, your family still wants to celebrate you and say we are very proud of you! Continue to strive for only the best and keep God first!

A ballot measure enters the world in one of two ways: 1) An engaged citizen (or engaged special interest) writes the text of the new law and sends it to the state attorney general’s office with a check for $2,000 (refundable if the measure qualifies for the ballot). or 2) The Legislature passes a bill proposing a change to the state constitution or a new bond measure. A two-thirds vote is required. Then the bill goes directly to the ballot.

...A TITLE AND SUMMARY ARE GIVEN...

The attorney general gives the measure a name and description. Sometimes these are controversial.

The state’s fiscal analysts also publish an estimate of how much the measure would cost the taxpayer.

LEVEL PAY CAN MAKE SUMMER BILLS MORE CHILL.

Avoid higher summer energy bills with Level Pay. With more San Diegans staying at home this summer, energy costs could increase dramatically. That’s why the Level Pay Program makes a lot of sense – especially if you count on consistent monthly expenses. SDG&E® will average your annual bill over the last twelve months, so you pay about the same each month. It’s a simple way to avoid unexpectedly high summer bills.

You can also go online for energy-saving tips to lower your bills all year long.

Great barbeque is always in demand, but finding it is not always easy. However, you are in luck because Bowlegged B.B.Q, located at 4255 Market Street in San Diego, should be on your restaurant “to do” list. This black-owned eatery has been open less than two years and is receiving great reviews from the public at large.

One of the co-owners, Carlos Stance, spoke about the essence of success that has made this family business work for the good of the southeast San Diego neighborhood. Bowlegged B.B.Q. is an example of what it looks like to see a beautiful African American family pulling together being producers and not just consumers. It’s allhands-on deck with three generations of Stances. Carlos has plenty of help and he is fast to say that, starting with his two siblings, Kenny & Maria, along with in-laws, children, nieces, nephews and grandchildren. The immediate beginning of this thriving restaurant has to be credited to Art & Flora Stance who have been married 62 years and have been residents at their current home in this same southeast community since 1963. This is indicative of lifelong lessons of never quitting and the value of family working together. Family recipes passed down from over 100 years also add to the success and flavor of this well run operation.

Bowlegged B.B.Q has grown faster than expected but the

family was prepared for such unexpected success through many unified business ventures in the past. If practice makes perfect, then it is evident from a dry-cleaning business, janitorial service, hair salon and a pretzel business that all of these entrepreneurships aided in their current status, and that is winning.

There are other elements of this restaurant that make it rock besides the Rib Tips, Chicken Quarter, Chicken Hot Link Sandwich and the masterful Brisket dinner. You may find yourself lost in the sauce admiring the shrine of black musical artists with all the eclectic album coverings lining the front dining area of the restaurant. Everyone from Jimi Hendrix to Prince is represented. It is like having a record store with a kitchen in it. Who doesn’t like great food and great music? The decor is courtesy of Kenny Stance and he sure got it right with this one. It’s not just a display of black artistry & tasty soul food it is a celebration of black culture and that sweet flavor we love.

Hats off to Bowlegged B.B.Q and all of its fabulous family members who remind us what black family and black unity looks like.

You don’t have to wait until February to enjoy black culture and great food.

You can celebrate it as often as you like when the doors are open at Bowlegged B.B.Q…..and tell them Brian sent you.

What’s On Your November Ballot PART 1: How an initiative or referendum makes its way onto your ballot

STAY INFORMED:

See our next issue for Part 2 -

8 CA Ballot Measures That Made the Cut

REFERRED BY THE LEGISLATURE

...LAWMAKERS ARE ALERTED...

Once a petition reaches 25 percent of its goal things start to get serious.

The Assembly and Senate are alerted and may decide to hold public hearings. These hearings are intended to help the public learn more about a topic they may soon be voting on. It also gives lawmakers a chance to find any loopholes, drafting errors, and unintended consequences. Or to hash out a deal.

...SIGNATURES ARE CHECKED...

Once enough signatures have been gathered, the secretary of state’s office randomly checks a small sample to make sure they belong to real-life, living human beings. If there are too many fakes and mistakes, the rest are checked too.

PROPOSED BY CITIZENS

...SIGNATURES ARE GATHERED...

If the measure introduces a new law or overturns an old one, its sponsors must gather 623,212 signatures.

If the measure changes the state constitution, they’ll need 997,139.*

...THE MEASURE IS DEEMED “ELIGIBLE”...

Once enough signatures are verified, the secretary of state’s office designates it good to go.

...AND THEN FINALLY PLACED ON THE BALLOT. Any citizen initiated measure deemed to be eligible at least 131 days before the election will be placed on the ballot.

They will join any measures referred by the Legislature.

BLACK LIVES MATTER SPURS MORE CHANGES IN AFRICA Global Information Network As Americans explore the renaming of army bases, statues, streets, and schools that honor racist slave-holders or portray demeaning relationships between whites and Black, Brown and Latinx citizens, similar efforts are underway in Senegal and Liberia most recently.

Goree, an island in Senegal linked closely with slave trade, has decided to rename one of its main squares in response to the anti-racist movements around the world.

“Liberty and Human Dignity Square.”

According to a statement from authorities, the move is in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter protests that have spread across the world, denouncing recurrent racial violence targeted at the black community.

NOTED WRITER CONFRONTS UK FOR ITS

FAILURE TO ADDRESS REPARATIONS Global Information Network Noted writer Afua Hirsch doesn’t shy away from difficult questions and she recently posed one to a British cabinet minister.

“Why,” she asked the minister, “has England never apologized for the transatlantic slave trade?” Britain, she reminded him, had trafficked more enslaved Africans than almost any other – at least 3 million on British ships. Yet the most the European country had to offer was “regret.”

BLACK HISTORY 1936

THE GREEN PASTURES PREMIERES IN NEW YORK One of only six feature films in the Hollywood’ Golden Era to feature an all-Black cast, the Pulitzer prize-winning play was adapted from the stage to the screen.

Presented as a series of southern folk tales, the movie attempts to recreate various Old Testament stories. It starred George Reed, Eddie “Rochester” Anderson, Oscar Polk, Edna Mae Harris, and Rex Ingram.

1862

BIRTH OF IDA B. WELLS Ida Bell Wells was an American investigative journalist, educator, and a founding member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Born into slavery in Mississippi, Wells was freed by the Emancipation Proclamation during the American Civil War. At sixteen, she lost much of her family in the 1878 yellow fever epidemic.

Wells co-owned and wrote for the Memphis Free Speech and Headlight newspaper. In the 1890s, Wells documented lynching in the United States through her indictment called “Southern Horrors: Lynch Law in all its Phases,” investigating frequent claims of whites that lynchings were reserved for black criminals only. In 2020, Wells was posthumously honored with a Pulitzer Prize special citation “[f]or her outstanding and courageous reporting on the horrific and vicious violence against African Americans during the era of lynching.”
