SAN BERNARDINO POLICE SEEK TO
AVOID SHOOTING INVESTIGATION
The Return of San Diego COMIC-CON!
By Antonio Ray Harvey California Black Media The officer-involved shooting of 23-year-old Rob Marquise Adams in San Bernardino on July 16 has put the spotlight on a law that requires state prosecutors in California to investigate such incidents.

Authored by Assemblymember Kevin McCarty (D-Sacramento), Secretary of the California Legislative Black Caucus, Assembly Bill (AB) 1506 requires the California Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate “incidents of an officer-involved shooting resulting in the death of an unarmed civilian.”

The COVID-19 pandemic halted many things — and San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC), the annual convention and meeting place for fans and professionals in pop culture and the media to come together, was one of
the first events of 2020 to be postponed. After the event was postponed again in 2021, fans began to wonder, would SDCC ever return in person? See COMIC-CON page 2

By Voice & Viewpoint Staff 62 years ago, on February 1, 1960, four African American North Carolina A&T students, known as the “A&T Four,” took a seat at the F.W. Woolworth’s “whites only” lunch counter in protest of racial segregation, located in
Greensboro. Ezell A. Blair Jr. (now Jibreel Khazan), Franklin E. McCain, Joseph A. McNeil, and David L. Richmond, asked to be served and were promptly denied and asked to leave. Those four See DESEGREGATION page 2
SAN DIEGO EXPLORES
CITY-OWNED PROPERTIES FOR
CHILD CARE FACILITIES Voice & Viewpoint Newswire
In an effort to address the shortage of affordable child care facilities, the City of San Diego issued a Request for Information (RFI) to child care providers asking for their input on how it can potentially establish child care facilities on City-owned properties. Since the San Diego Municipal Code does not allow child care facilities on Parks and Recreation land, on Monday, July 25, the City Council voted on a ballot measure initiated by Councilmember Chris Cate that
would allow voters to determine if they want that changed. The ballot measure was passed, which means that residents will vote on it in this year’s November election.

Last May, the Economic Development and Intergovernmental Relations Committee asked the City to identify properties owned by the City that could be turned into or made available for the construction of child care centers. The facilities assessment See CHILD-CARE page 2

ARTICLE CONTINUATION INVESTIGATION: Continued from cover
While an investigation would appear to be warranted in the Adams shooting case, the DOJ stated in a July 22 email to California Black Media (CBM), “We’re aware of the incident. However, our office is not currently involved under AB 1506. At this point, local authorities are best-positioned to comment on the matter.” That’s because the San Bernardino Police Department (SBPD) is claiming Adams had a gun, so an unarmed civilian was not involved. Adams was shot multiple times in the back while running away from SBPD officers. The officers arrived in an unmarked sedan after receiving information that a Black man armed with a handgun was in the parking lot of a business known to house an illegal gambling operation. Adams ran toward two parked vehicles with the gun in his right hand, according to a video statement SBPD Chief Darren Goodman posted on the department’s website. “The cops briefly chased Adams,

The answer finally came last week, when SDCC returned to the San Diego Convention Center from July 20 to July 24. For four days, over 130,000 nerds and San Diegans of every kind descended on Downtown San Diego. Outside the convention center, flocks of people walked the streets of the Gaslamp district, whether they had ComicCon tickets or not. . On the exhibit floor, hundreds of Black cosplayers posed for attendees in a variety of characters. Seen in specific were a troupe of characters from Batman, all Black teenagers, in a ‘punk’ or ‘rocker’ version of those characters. Seen on the ‘punk’ Catwoman, was a batman patch with an “X” scribbled over his face, showing the amount of detail that these cosplayers put into their costumes. One superhero seen outside the Convention Center dubbed himself, “The Black Man.” His secret weapon? An afro-pick. Another popular cosplay was from the world of Wakanda, with many dressing up
“but seeing” that Adams had no outlet, “they believed he intended to use the vehicles as cover to shoot at them,” Goodman said, describing his understanding of the events that preceded the shooting. While SBPD says that Adams had a gun in his hand as he ran from the officers, the attorneys for the Adams family, Bradley C. Gage, and civil rights lawyer Ben Crump say he was holding his cell phone. Gage said, “There are millions of Black men so any one of them could be a suspect. When you’re holding a cell phone it could look like a gun especially when you think it’s one.” “They needed it to be a gun because God help them if they shot an unarmed man running away,” Crump said of the officers who shot Adams. Adams’ mother, Tamika DeavilaKing, said the shooting was not necessary and the officers’ version is untrue. “I’ll say it again, it was not a gun. I have proof on my phone of the exact time that they killed my son that I was on the phone with him.” As of July 1, 2021, it’s been the DOJ’s responsibility to investigate offias warriors from the Marvel movie Black Panther. The trailer for the next installment in this franchise, Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever, was released exclusively at ComicCon on Saturday, July 23. The trailer is now online and can be accessed on Youtube, and the movie will premiere in November of this year. Held every year is the “AfroFuturism–Black to the Future” panel, with the title, “No Jive–Talk Black to Me!”. It featured a panel of women who spoke about new technologies, the consequences of racism on these technologies, and how they affect the Pan-African diaspora. The panel featured Astronaut Dr. Yvonne Darlene Cagle, M.D., associate professor of Africana studies at San Diego State University; Dr. Sureshi M. Jayawardene, Ph.D.; and Dr. Lauren Thomas Quigley, Ph.D., who is a technology curriculum specialist and is a part of HackTheHood.Org.

students would not leave and calmly remained in their seats in protest of the racial inequality of that time. This simple action would inspire activists around the United States and spur the non-violent civil rights ‘sit-in’ movement. Hundreds of students, community members, churches, and civil rights groups joined the A&T Four, planning sit-ins between white and Black patrons at the lunch counter. The Greensboro sit-ins would go on to last six months, when finally, on July 25, 1960, the lunch counter was racially integrated, and would be forevermore. The International Civil Rights Center & Museum, which is located at the site of the original F.W. Woolworth’s lunch counter, has spearheaded celebrations throughout Greensboro and North Carolina over the past 60+ years to commemorate this important moment in civil rights history. The Museum will hold their annual

cer-involved shootings that result in the death of an unarmed civilian. A published public report on each investigation must be released, pursuant to AB 1506. The DOJ states on its website that “when an officer-involved shooting occurs, transparent and open communication is critical to maintain public trust.” Currently, Attorney General Rob Bonta and the DOJ have 21 officer-involved shootings under investigation in jurisdictions such as Anaheim, Salinas, Fontana, Adelanto, San Francisco, Fresno, Bakersfield, and Los Angeles and Riverside counties. More than 42 law enforcement officers are being investigated and their cases are under review for potential criminal liability, according to the DOJ. The DOJ recently opened up an investigation of a San Bernardino County Sheriff ’s deputy who shot and killed an unarmed man in Adelanto on June 21 following a vehicle stop. DOJ said in a written statement. “Following notification by local authorities, the California Departlearned from her trips beyond the earth’s atmosphere. She praised the human body, explaining how versatile we can become when pursuing space exploration. “You are amazing. It has been less than 8 minutes and 31 seconds, and you’re already 250 miles above the Earth, going 17,500 miles per hour on your way to Mach 25. Physiologically, you have effectively already run the equivalent of no less than six 25K marathons. And your DNA is already re-coding you — your mind, body, soul, and epigenetics. From that person you may never be again, you will go to become, possibly, that very extraterrestrial we go in search of. That is awesome,” she said with a smile, describing what it felt like to travel in space. Dr. Quigley went on to explain the background of artificial intelligence (A.I.) and how it is already biased due to being made by mainly white creators, and that Black engineers will be the answer to making sure that our future A.I. is not racist. Outside the Convention Center, Dr. LaWana Richmond held the Afrofuturism Lounge at
ment of Justice’s California Police Shooting Investigation Team for Southern California deployed to the scene of the incident. Alongside other law enforcement partners, the California Department of Justice is investigating.” What concerns the Adams family, according to their attorneys, is from what they viewed in the video shared widely on social media, is that Adams appeared unaware that police officers were in the unmarked car. Adams could have believed that he was about to be robbed or attacked. The officers’ version of the events declares that when they exited their vehicle, they gave Adams verbal commands before opening fire. He immediately ran toward “two parked vehicles with the gun in his right hand,” Goodman said. The gun the police recovered at the scene of the shooting, was a black 9mm Taurus G3C with a round in the chamber, and 10 rounds in the magazine Goodman said SBPD is conducting an administrative investigation to ensure department policies and procedures were followed. He also the Quartyard. To read more on that event, see page 9. Across the convention center, another panel was taking place with the writers of the novel Blackout. The novel, written by five Black female authors, is a story of intertwined Black love and chance meetings, all taking place during a blackout. The book has been picked up by the Obamas’ production company, Higher Ground, and will be developed by Netflix. The authors are Ashley Woodfolk, Nicola Yoon, Nic Stone, Tiffany D. Jackson, and Dhonielle Clayton, and they are each acclaimed and accomplished in their own right. Together, they “created something magical,” according to Nicola Yoon. “We are all motivated by the same mission,” said author Nic Stone. “And that is to tell stories with people who look like us.” This sentiment is reflected in casting choices for upcoming shows, such as Anne Rice’s Interview With The Vampire, where two main characters for traditionally white roles were given to Black actors. In the role of Claudia, African American
Goodman asks the public and the media to allow his department to complete its investigation and gather all the facts. Adams family lawyers say they will file a lawsuit on behalf of the Adams family. “Make no mistake about it, this is not the first time that we’ve seen them unjustly kill a young Black person. They shoot first and ask questions later,” Crump said. “And then after they assassinate our bodies…they then assassinate our character. They’re going to say all kinds of lies and innuendos to say, ‘Hold on, Rob wasn’t worth it.’ Well, we want you to know that Rob’s life mattered.” actress, Bailey Bass, was cast, and for the titular character of the vampire, Louis, actor Jacob Anderson won the role. Additionally, in Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman, which is being adapted for television, Kirby HowellBaptiste was cast in the coveted role of Death, which caused some controversy as she is Black and the character is traditionally a very pale white. Nonetheless, Neil Gaiman has come out in support of the casting choice and the show is set to premiere at the end of this month. “I loved Death when I first read the comic, but never could’ve imagined playing the character,” Ms. HowellBaptiste exclaimed during a panel for the show. At SDCC, all things are possible, and the support of fans keeps the pop culture and literary scene alive. After years of living in a pandemic, the attendees finally got everything they asked for: a weekend in beautiful San Diego, surrounded by like-minded people, in celebration of creativity with some escapism thrown in.

EDITORIAL/COMMENTARY/OPINION African Americans,
Hate Crimes And Money By Dr. John E. Warren, Publisher
Recently, the California Department of Justice released a report which showed that African Americans are the greatest victims of Hate Crimes in the State. This is not surprising since we have always been the victims of Hate Crimes, with law enforcement seeking to underreport for fear of looking bad. At the writing of this editorial, there are more than 42 active investigations of shootings by law enforcement personnel in the State of California. This fact came to light recently as the San Bernardino Police Department attempted to avoid an investigation of the shooting of Rob Adams, who was shot 7 times in the back on July 16th. The reason for shooting this Black man while he was running away from police was because they thought he had a gun in his hand instead of the cell phone on which he was talking to his mother at the time he was shot. He was a Black man reported by a call to the police, in an area where there was supposedly a lot of gambling. The police, for their own sake, contend he had a gun instead of the cell phone. Question: How many Black men have been killed so far by police because they had a cell phone in their hands, which police assumed was a gun? We can count at least three: one here in San Diego county shot in broad
daylight because of a cell phone in his hand, one killed in another state standing outside his garage with a cell phone in his hands that police thought was a gun. Now, Mr. Adams, who we are sure is just one more. Oh, let’s not forget the young man in Minnesota who was shot in his car by an officer who thought she was reaching for her taser instead of her gun. Now that everyone is aware of just how great Hate Crimes are against African Americans, are we going to be treated like the Asian community following what we clearly called a Hate Crime massacre at the Massage Spas in Atlanta, Georgia, or, to be more specific, here in California where hundreds of thousands of dollars have been made available for grants to fight Hate Crimes, primarily in the Asian communities? While some Black media outlets received some of the funding, where is the similar grant allocation budget to fight Hate Crimes in the African American community beyond the State Attorney General announcing the creation of an office with a Black man over it, in response to this crisis? Where is the money which makes the same level of commitment to the Black community that the State has made to the Asian Community? A public relations campaign without the dollars to match what has been done for the Asian community, is just window dressing.
A Letter to the Church —
Are you living in vain?
and their families would be protected from violence that exists in the home and outside of the home.
By Dr. Froswa Booker-Drew Texas Metro News Dear Body of Christ,
This isn’t for all of you. I want to commend those of you who step up to the plate daily supplying the support that our communities need. This is for those who are focused on dealing with certain people because it’s easy and comfortable. As I witness you celebrating the overturning of Roe v. Wade, I want to challenge you. I want you to really consider the way you are currently supporting women and children in your congregation. I hope that you will also embrace the young women who are single mothers without judgm ent and that your church has a ministry that caters to their needs offering both financial and emotional support beyond just the spiritual. As churches, I hope that you are taking the time to address the needs of those who you are called to serve instead of just teaching them without the practical application of what they are hearing on Sundays and Wednesday nights. I hope that you are talking to those young men in your congregation about what it means to be a man — that it is more than the ability to create babies but to be accountable
and responsible for your actions. My prayer is that you will show them what it means to be in a loving, committed relationship that supports your partner to fulfill their God-given purpose, too. I hope that instead of allowing the women to carry the responsibility of parenthood — since their conception was not a solo act — that you will hold the men in your congregation to a stand ard of being involved, even if they are not with the mother of their child/children. Church, if human life is so important to you then it must go beyond conception and pregnancy to life outside the womb. How do we care for the unborn but not their mothers or fathers? We do not fight for universal health insurance, livable wage jobs, housing, and other necessities so that children can come into the world healthy, safe and provided for. We do not question infant mortality and the rates of Black women who die in childbirth and after the birth of their babies. If babies are really important to you, you would be concerned about their educational opportunities. They would have quality child care centers with teachers that are trained and paid well. We would care about their safety — children
They could be free to shop in grocery stores, go to the movies, attend parades or even go to school without the fear of being massacred in places that are supposed to be safe. Just as Jesus listed several is sues with the Pharisees, those same issues exist today within the Church. Matthew 23:14-36 lists seven woes to the Pharisees which are relevant today:
• Teaching about God but not genuinely loving God (claiming you love God who you’ve never seen but hate your brothers and sisters you see every day (1 John 4:20)). • Preaching about God but you don’t live out what you are teaching. • Confusing what’s sacred and what is not. • Teaching the Bible but not practicing justice, mercy, and faithfulness to God. Getting caught up in the minuscule but not paying attention to what’s major. • Appearing to be righteous but filled with a heart of greed and self-promotion. • Speaking about your love for Jesus but if He were alive today, many of you would cond emn Him as well. I hope that in your moments of celebration, there is time for true reflection and change. Without it, our witness to the world is filled with hypocrisy—like the Pharisees.

Providing Mortgage Relief to Californians Post-COVID By Tiena Johnson Hall Special to California Black Media Partners The California Mortgage Relief Program helps families impacted by COVID19 save their homes. For many Californians of color, housing instability and inequity did not begin with the COVID-19 pandemic. Discriminatory housing and lending policies have long prevented communities of color from securing the right to stable housing. The gateway to homeownership – proven to be one of the most effective ways to build intergenerational wealth in America – has only drifted further and farther out of reach for people of color in America and especially in California. While the pandemic did not create these issues, it has
compounded them, forcing more families into vulnerable positions and putting their homeownership at risk. To those who are familiar with our country’s history, it is no surprise that Black and Latinx communities are especially impacted. The Little Hoover Commission found that over the course of the pandemic, Black and Latinx homeowners were more than two times as likely as white Americans to report being behind on their housing payments. Responding to the most recent chapter of this crisis, California has $1 billion in federal support available to homeowners at risk of losing their homes due to lost work, increased medical costs, and other hardships brought on or exacerbated by COVID-19 and the asso-
ciated economic impacts. Launched in December 2021, the California Mortgage Relief Program has distributed grants of up to $80,000 to eligible homeowners from socially disadvantaged communities, including families of color, who have fallen behind on their housing payments. Over the past six months, California has distributed relief funds to more than 2,800 households. Recent expansions to the program’s eligibility guidelines have opened the opportunity for even more homeowners to get caught up on missed housing payments. In July, the program celebrated distributing $100 million in relief to California homeowners. We have made it a point to embed
ourselves in our local communities and connect with vulnerable homeowners in the language that is most accessible to them. As these families work to recover from the ongoing financial burdens of the pandemic, there should be no additional barriers for them to access these resources. A home goes beyond four walls and a roof. It is security. It is peace of mind. For many families, buying a home represents the unraveling of a system entrenched in inequality and lays the foundation of opportunity for future generations. This housing relief cannot undo a history of exclusionary practices, nor end a global pandemic, but it can ensure that whatever progress these families have made toward intergenerational wealth is

not erased due to circumstances beyond their control. And that is the work we will continue to do for these families. For anyone suffering from inequality, we must always strive for better. For Californians who lost wages, lost jobs, or faced the tragedy of a lost loved one during this terrible pandemic – and especially for those who have faced the additional challenges of historical housing discrimination – the California Mortgage Relief Program is here to alleviate some of the burden. Apply today at CaMortgageRelief.org. Tiena Johnson Hall is the Executive Director of the California Housing Finance Agency (CalHFA).

ARRANGEMENTS BY PREFERRED CREMATION & BURIAL MORTUARY On June 26, 1941, in Kansas City, Kansas, ROSEMARY SHOCKLEY was gifted into this world to the proud parents of Anna Iola Reed and John Reed. Rosemary Shockley grew up in Kansas City, Missouri where she attended Lincoln High School. She achieved perfect attendance through high school. Rosemary participated and was recognized as a well accomplished majorette and was notably skilled with the baton. In 1959, Rosemary received her high school diploma. She later opened a dance studio and became a ballet instructor. In 1971, Rosemary traveled by train with her four children to California to be close to her mother and siblings. Among her children and friends, Rosemary,
Love Lives On
was known to be a compassionate and giving person who opened her home to those in need. In fact, she would give her last dime without hesitation. Rosemary was a great provider to her children and known to be a loving mother and friend. On July 6, 2022, after valiantly battling a long illness, the Lord called Rosemary Shockley to her heavenly home to be with Him. Rosemary was preceded in death by father John Reed; mother Anna Iola Reed; son Donald Shockley; nephew Darrell Peace; and brother John Reed. Left to cherish her memory are daughter Rosalind Reed; sons Pastor Robert Clay, and Dr. Ronald Shockley; nephew Dalon Reed; sister Shirley Peace; and a host of nieces and nephews.
ARRANGEMENTS BY ANDERSON-RAGSDALE MORTUARY Funeral services were held on 07/19/2022 at Memory Chapel of Anderson-Ragsdale Mortuary with the burial following at Mt. Hope Cemetery. Final arrangements were entrusted to Anderson-Ragsdale Mortuary. Our beloved LOUISE BLAIR EDWARDS (NÉE TATE) departed from the earthly realm on Saturday, July 2, after living a full, colorful life. She was 94 years old. The vibrant matriarch was born to Shawnee and Mattie Mae Tate on March 24, 1928, in Okmulgee, Oklahoma. Louise was the youngest sibling (Verlyn and Rosie preceded her in death) and was affectionately known as “Big Sis.” The proud Oklahoman attended Wheatley High School in Beggs, Oklahoma. At 18 years of age, Louise relocated to San Diego, California, with her late husband Cornelius Claymon Edwards, Sr. in 1946. The couple had six children during their union – Doris (Joseph), Ronald, who preceded her in death, Yvonne (James), Cornelius Jr (Sheila), Michael Sr (Sally) and Larry Sr (Deborah). The doting matriarch had 15 grandchildren: Laron, Kevin Sr., Katrina, Marcus, Christian, Jason, Larry Jr., Michael Jr., Aaron, Jennifer, Charlton, Eric Jr., Dieynaba, Shawnee and Samona, 24 great- grandchildren, and 1 great-great grandchild. Felicia Edwards preceded her in death.
Those we love are never really lost to us — we feel them in so many special ways —
through friends they always cared about and dreams they left behind, in beauty that they added to our days… in words of
wisdom we still carry with us and memories that never will be gone… Those we love are never really lost to us — For everywhere their special love lives on.
A. Bradley
Louise took pride in her career, family and worship. She joined Linda Vista 2nd Baptist Church. She also worked for Convair and then the University of California, San Diego, where she retired from a Senior Supervisor position after 23 years. The 94-year-old spirited woman was an avid traveler — enjoying the treasures the Caribbean Islands offered. She also enjoyed spending time with her family and friends playing Pakeno.
May Time Soften Your Pain In times of darkness, love sees… In times of silence, love hears... In times of doubt, love hopes… In times of sorrow, love heals... And in all times, love remembers. May time soften the pain Until all that remains
To Honour You
Is the warmth of the memories And the love.
Connie F. Kiefer Byrd
To honour you... I get up every day and take a breath. And start another day without you in it. To honour you... I laugh and love with those who knew your smile And the way your eyes twinkled with mischief and
secret knowledge. To honour you... I take the time to appreciate everyone I love, I know now there is no guarantee of days or hours spent in their presence. To honour you... I listen to music you would
have liked, And sing at the top of my lungs, with the windows rolled down To honour you... I take chances, say what I feel, hold nothing back, Risk making a fool of myself, dance every dance.
You were my light, my heart, my gift of love, from the very highest source. So every day, I vow to make a difference, share a smile, live, laugh and love. Now I live for us both, so all I do, I do to honour you.

Emmett Till’s House, Black Sites to Get Landmarks Funds By Don Babwin Associated Press Emmett Till left his mother’s house on Chicago’s South Side in 1955 to visit relatives in Mississippi, where the Black teenager was abducted and brutally slain for reportedly whistling at a white woman.

A cultural preservation organization announced Tuesday, July 19, that the house will receive a share of $3 million in grants being distributed to 33 sites and organizations nationwide that are important pieces of African American history. Some of the grant money from the African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund will go to rehabilitate buildings, such as a bank in Mississippi founded by businessman Charles Banks, who won praise from Booker T. Washington; the first Black masonic lodge in North Carolina; and a school in rural Florida for the children of Black farm workers and laborers.

The money will also help restore the Virginia home where tennis coach Dr. Robert Walter “Whirlwind” Johnson helped turn Black athletes such as Arthur Ashe and Althea Gibson into champions, rehabilitate the Blue Bird Inn in Detroit that is considered the birthplace of bebop jazz, and protect and preserve African American cemeteries in Pennsylvania and a tiny island off the coast of South Carolina. Brent Leggs, executive director of the organization that is in its fifth year of awarding the grants, said the effort is intended to fill “some gaps in the nation’s understanding of the civil rights movement.” Till’s brutal slaying helped galvanize the civil rights movement. The Chicago home where Mamie Till Mobley and her son lived will receive funding for a project director to oversee restoration efforts, including renovating the second floor to what it looked like when the Tills lived there. “This house is a sacred treasure from our perspective and our goal is to restore it and reinvent it as an international heritage pilgrimage destination,” said Naomi Davis, executive director of Blacks in Green, a local nonprofit group that bought the house in 2020. She said the plan is to time the 2025 opening with that of the Obama Presidential Library a few miles away. Leggs said it is particularly important to do something that shines a light on Mamie Till
Mobley. After her 14-year-old son’s lynching, Till Mobley insisted that his body be displayed in an open casket as it looked when it was pulled from a river, to show the world what racism looked like. It was a display that influenced thousands of mourners who filed by the casket and the millions more who saw the photographs in Jet Magazine — one of whom was Rosa Parks whose refusal to give up her seat on a Montgomery, Alabama, bus to a white man about three months later remains one of the pivotal acts of defiance in American history. “It was a catalytic moment in the civil rights movement and through this we lift and honor Black women in civil rights,” Leggs said. And the news follows a recent revelation about the discovery of an unserved arrest warrant of the woman whose accusation put in motion the chain of events that led to the teen’s lynching. The house and the story of the casket highlight the risks that the remnants of such history can vanish if not protected. As recently as 2019 when it was sold to a developer, the red brick Victorian house built more than a century earlier was falling into disrepair before it was granted landmark status by the city of Chicago. And the glass-topped casket that held Till’s remains was only donated to the Smithsonian Institution because it was discovered in 2009 rusting in a shed at a suburban Chicago cemetery where it was discarded after the teen’s body was exhumed years earlier. That discovery of the casket, which only happened because of a scandal at the cemetery, underscores how easily significant pieces of history can simply vanish, said Annie Wright, whose late husband, Simeon, was sleeping with his cousin, Emmett, the night he was abducted. “We got to remember what happened and if we don’t tell it, if people don’t see (the house) they’ll forget and we don’t want to forget tragedy in these United States,” said Wright, 76.

COVID-19 UPDATES What to Know About the Novavax COVID Shot By Lauran Neergaard AP Medical Writer
vaccinated.”
U.S. adults who haven’t gotten any COVID-19 shots yet should consider a new option from Novavax — a more traditional kind of vaccine, government advisers said Tuesday, July 19.
All of the vaccines used in the U.S. train the body to fight the coronavirus by recognizing its outer coating, the spike protein — and the first three options essentially turn people’s cells into a temporary vaccine factory. The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines deliver genetic instructions for the body to make copies of the spike protein. The lesser-used Johnson & Johnson option uses a cold virus to deliver those instructions.
years to prevent other diseases including hepatitis B and shingles.
THE NOVAVAX DIFFERENCE
Regulators authorized the nation’s first so-called protein vaccine against COVID-19 last week, but Novavax shots cannot begin until the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends how to use them. CDC officials say that between 26 million and 37 million adults haven’t had a single dose of any COVID-19 vaccine — the population that Novavax, for now, will be targeting. “We really need to focus on that population,” said CDC adviser Dr. Oliver Brooks, past president of the National Medical Association. Hopefully, the vaccine “will change them over from being unvaccinated to
HOW WELL IT WORKS Large studies in the U.S., Mexico and Britain found two doses of the Novavax vaccine were safe and about 90% effective at preventing symptomatic COVID-19. When the delta variant emerged last summer, Novavax reported a booster dose revved up virus-fighting antibodies that could tackle that mutant.

sky, must sign off on the advisory panel’s recommendations for adults to get the first two Novavax doses. In its first purchase, the U.S. government bought 3.2 million doses.
HOW TO USE NOVAVAX SHOTS
Also, the two doses typically are given three weeks apart. But CDC officials said that like with other COVID-19 vaccines, it’s possible to wait up to eight weeks for the second dose — except for people at the highest risk, who need protection quickly.
The Novavax vaccine also is used in Europe, Canada, Australia, South Korea and other countries. Many allow booster doses, and European regulators recently cleared the shots to be given as young as age 12.
The CDC’s advisers unanimously endorsed the two-shot primary

Typical vaccine reactions were mild, including arm pain and fatigue, but regulators did warn about the possibility of a rare risk, heart inflammation, that also has been seen with the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, mostly in teen boys or young men.
In contrast, the Novavax vaccine injects copies of the spike protein that are grown in a lab and packaged into nanoparticles that to the immune system resemble a virus.

1 in 8 U.S. Deaths From 2020 to 2021 Came From COVID-19 By Emily Smith-Greenaway, Ashton Verdery, Haowei Wang, and Shawn Bauldry COVID-19 was the third-most-common cause of death between March 2020 and October 2021 in the U.S., behind only heart disease and cancer, according to a recent study. As sociologists who study population health, we have been assessing how losing a loved one to COVID-19 has affected people’s well-being. Research shows that more than 9 million people have lost a relative to COVID-19 in the U.S. This rise in bereavement is troubling because our research finds that COVID-19 bereavement not only increases people’s risk of depression, but can make them vulnerable to mental distress.
THE DISTINCTNESS OF GRIEVING COVID-19 DEATHS Researchers have a sense of what constitutes “good” and “bad” deaths. Bad deaths are those that involve pain or discomfort and happen in isolation. Their unexpectedness also makes these deaths more distressing. People whose loved ones die “bad deaths” tend to report greater mental distress.
COVID-19 deaths often bear many hallmarks of “bad” deaths. They are preceded by physical pain, often occur in isolated hospital settings and happen suddenly – leaving family unprepared. The ongoing pandemic has inflicted an added layer of agony, as individuals are grieving during a time of social isolation, economic precarity and general uncertainty. In another study, our team used survey data from 27 countries to test whether the mental health impacts of COVID-19 deaths are more severe than death from other causes. We focused on the case of spousal death and compared two groups: those whose spouses died of COVID-19 in the pandemic’s first wave and those whose spouses died of other causes just before the pandemic began. We found that COVID-19 widows and widowers face higher rates of depression and loneliness than expected based on widow and widower mental health outcomes pre-pandemic.
THE SECONDARY POPULATION HEALTH CONSEQUENCES OF COVID-19 DEATHS The effects of COVID-19 deaths on grieving spouses’ mental health is troubling because

we estimate that nearly 500,000 people have lost a spouse to COVID-19 in the U.S. The mental health problems that people face after losing a loved one can also lead to declines in physical health and even increase a person’s risk of death. Our research suggests that COVID-19 not only increased rates of family bereavement, but that people who lost loved ones to the coronavirus were particularly distressed afterward. We studied only widowhood; future research
needs to identify the potential consequences of COVID-19 losses for other bereaved relatives. It is critical to continue taking steps to prevent future COVID-19 deaths.

Reel Teens Summer Nights
Western Roundup A Community Success
GenSend volunteer Cara Monk playing a game of Connect Four with one of the Reel Teens.
By Amara N. Beaty Staff Writer Friday night July 22 at City of Hope International Church, the Reel Teens program kicked off another successful Summer Nights with the theme, Western Roundup. From 5pm to 8pm, kids from middle to high school enjoyed a night of country-themed fun! From ping-pong and pool to Mario Kart, square dancing, and barbecue so good it would make you wanna slap your mama, everybody fully enjoyed themselves the whole night through.
James Wiley Jr., the founder and president of Reel Teens, began doing summer nights for teenage kids last year, but his journey into youth ministry started in his youth. Reel Teens seniors pose for a picture.
Twenty-two years ago and fresh out of high school, a young James, after giving his life to Christ, felt compelled to give back to his community with the Grace and the gifts God gave him. So what does he do? He begins his journey in youth ministry, serving the children from the community he grew up in. Fast forward 18 years later. In 2018, after mentoring kids all throughout the Southeast community, Mr. Wiley, as some of us know him, started his own ministry, Reel Teens.
nity need a safe place where they can be in the company of loving, caring adults. To have a good time, and to hear the word of God in a way they can understand,” Wiley stated. When asked how he managed to do what he’s doing now, he responded, “[Reel Teens] is definitely God. I see God all through this. I look at the mobile teen center and everything I have for the kids and wonder, ‘How did I get this?’ It’s nothing but God.” This particular Summer Nights event was an extra special one, as a group of Arkansas youth volunteers were in attendance. Spending eight weeks of their summer in San Diego, five young people between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five were unexpectedly sent out to help Wiley with his program over the summer. Jessica Taylor, a twenty-two-year-old working with GenSend - North American
Mission Board, shared what “being where your feet are” means when it comes to missionary work and overall evangelism. “We’re going home soon and we’re excited about it, but we still have work to do where we are right now,” said the young missionary when talking about doing door-todoor evangelism. “I’ve learned that while I’m here I may not see a bunch of people come to Christ, but I don’t know how God is working and how the Holy Spirit is moving. A lot of times, it takes more than one connection to accept Christ, so any connection is a win—even when they slam the door in my face,” Taylor said. There are only three more Summer Nights on the docket this summer. The next Summer Nights will be August 5, 2022, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Follow @jwileyjr18 on Instagram to keep up with the latest at Reel Teens!

Southeast Community
PEACE WALK
By Amara N. Beaty Staff Writer
Too many lives of the young men and women in our communities are being lost to senseless acts of violence. Members of Southeast San Diego who feel that enough is enough, plan to make that message loud and clear. On Saturday July 23, Mother’s With A Message and Epiphany, two organizations headed by women in the Southeastern community of San Diego, along with other community organizations, lead a peace march on Logan and Imperial Avenue; banding together to walk in the memories of the young men and women who lost their lives due to gang violence. Bevelynn Bravo, the organizer of the event and founder of Mother’s With A Message, believes that the District 4 community needs help. Her organization offers resources to children and adults who are struggling, in an effort to help them and to keep the youth off of the streets. “We want our kids to live,” said Bravo when asked what her message was. “It should be an emergency for everybody that our youth are dying. We now have youth who aren’t even making it to fifteen years old. They’re dying.” Rasheeda Hameed, founder of T.H.E. C.I.R.C.L.E. by Epiphany, another organization in the community delivering resources, training, and education for those in need,
says enough is enough. “It’s old, and we’re tired of it. That’s the message,” Ms. Hameed said. She and other members of the neighborhood came out with the goal of spreading awareness and positivity into the community.

Most signs were marked with the names Photo: of those who lost their lives far Amara N. Beaty too young, others with statements that forced onlookers to stop and think about the organizations’ cause. People driving by honked their horns in solidarity. The march ended with a powerful rap performance by a young Zvon “ZJ” Butler, sharing his love for the community he’s growing up in and calling for peace for the sake of his and his peers’ futures. These marches will occur monthly, with the next march taking place at “4 Corners,” a cross-section of Imperial Avenue and Euclid Avenue in Lincoln Park, and will end at John F. Kennedy Park to commemorate the life of Orlando Fabian Montoya, who was murdered at the park over three years ago. The date has yet to be announced.

Black Creatives Gather for 5th Annual Afrofuturism Lounge By Ahliyah S. Chambers Contributing Writer
Closely connected to the Black Speculative Arts Movement is Afrofuturism. It was scholar Mark Dery who suggested that the purpose of the term “afro-
A few years ago, Dr. LaWana Richmond founded the Afrofuturism Lounge that sought to provide an educational, entertaining, and informative space for creative and critical thinkers alongside community builders. Last weekend, many traveled a great distance to support Dr. LaWana Richmond’s efforts. Her hopes of individuals gathering was to cultivate a space for Blacks to imagine speculative futures and the multiverse as an exploration of art as well as a world filled with opportunities. The event was also in collaboration with “The Buses are Coming,” an installation hosted by the San Diego African American Museum of Fine Art, and reported on in this newspaper last month. “The exhibit was intentionally hosted at the Freedom Riders exhibit because the exhibit

is filled with QR codes that include augmented reality. We wanted people to be able to see how connecting the past and present can help us imagine the future of the African diaspora as we would like to see it,” said Dr. Richmond. Throughout the two-day event, a variety of vendors and panelists came out to share their take on Afrofuturism. Dr. LaWana reminded guests, “Afrofuturism is interdisciplinary and inclusive. With that being said, we found it important to highlight those within business, art, music, dance, community healing, and science that all bring value to Black speculative thought.” Then it is our job to reverse engineer the process to outline what steps we need to take as a community to get there.”

Dr. Sarah Boswell, an attendee of the 5th Afrofuturism Lounge shared “I found the conversations about creatives and business to be powerful. It was helpful to hear strategic ways to navigate your business, as well as, protect your intellectual and creative property. All in all, I was very impressed with the panel selection and vendors!”
Good music, good food, and good people all came together in an effort to let Dr. Williams and her team of four women, including Dr. Williams, know that they’ve got the support of the community.
“[My wife Lisa Corsair and I] love supporting the community,” said Hariel Corsair, who DJ’d the event. “When we find somebody young and Black who’s building a business right here where it’s needed the most? We can’t help but support that.” Some in attendance saw this event as an opportunity to look towards the future; believing that this grand opening could be the precursor to greatness for Black businesses, not only in San Diego. “The whole block can be filled with Black businesses if we want it!” said Yolanda Atkins, a local multi-business owner and entrepreneur. For Dr. Williams, the support of her business’ grand opening was much to take in. There were about one hundred people who attended the event all throughout the day. “I’m excited overall! Being in this community and a new dentist feels great! I’m from
New York, so I feel very welcome. Taking over a practice that has been established for years, where patients trust the doctor, I want to gain the same exact trust,” Williams said. The practice has been updated with the flair that only a young Black woman could bring: with paintings on the hallway wall that celebrate Black culture, such as the infamous Sugar Shack painting by Ernie Barnes, magazines that represent Black people such as Essence, and furniture and decor that all around makes the office feel like home. Visionary Dental Arts offers general dental services including teeth cleaning, whitening, and x-rays. There are no orthodontist services offered. The office is located at 5106 Federal Blvd, Suite 209 in San Diego, CA directly behind the US Bank building. Call (619) 264-0179 for more information. Patients from any age and background are welcomed.

Visionary Dental Arts Grand Opening Celebration Gains Community Support
By Amara N. Beaty Staff Writer For decades, Dr. Victor Crawford, of Victor X Crawford DDS Inc, has served the Southeast San Diegan community in dentistry and for decades the community of Southeast San Diego has supported him right back. After retiring from his business, Dr. Crawford sold his practice to the young, Black, female entrepreneur Cathy Williams, DMD. On Saturday July 23, Visionary Dental Arts, Dr. Williams’ new dental office, celebrated its grand opening. The same patients who have entrusted Dr. Crawford to care for them as well as other long-time members and friends of Southeast came out to support the transition.

Today, we notice a rise in Black speculative imagination that can be attributed to the Black Speculative Arts Movement, a global community of intellectuals that seeks to present, promote and support human centered speculative imagination to catalyze streams of new thought that envision an inclusive future society.
futurism’’ was to designate “speculative fiction that treats African American themes and addresses the concerns in the context of 20th century technoculture. African-American voices have stories to tell about culture, technology, and things to come.”

After two long years, people traveled from all over to participate in and admire ComicCon, the annual international comic book convention and nonprofit multi-genre entertainment event that has been hosted in San Diego since 1970.

COMMUNITY FLAG FO TBALLERS STILL HAVE PASSION FOR THE GAME By Darrel Wheeler Contributing Writer The 8 on 8 XFlag Football League season came to a dramatic conclusion last Saturday, July 21, on the campus of SDSU.

Former Pop Warner, pre collegiate and semi-pro players who never lost their passion for the game are still able to participate minus the helmets and shoulder pads. However, last week’s playoffs and Championship game were not for the faint of heart — football is still football. On the Aztec practice field there was some blood, sweat, and pain, but no place for fear. In spite of all the rough-stuff the opposing combatants could also be seen laughing, hi-fiving and complimenting the opposition.
“A lot of us have been playing together for years. Some of us have played on the same team in other leagues,” Maurice Douglas, of Team Blessed, shared. “I’ve been playing in various flag leagues ever since I was 19 and I’m 42 now. I still enjoy playing, it helps me stay active and I love to compete.” The defending Hippo’s team pulled off a three-peat with a last minute victory over their arch rivals, SD Blessed, capturing their third Championship. “I knew it was going to be a close game between us because we are the two best teams in the league,” said Charles Warren of SD Blessed. “We’ve been playing for about 12 years now. We used to be at Robb field until we got the Aztecs field — it’s way better. I’m out here just having some fun with people I used to watch play, and some I played against and with in high school. I have met a lot of interesting and cool people since I’ve been participating in flag football. As long as I have the passion, I will keep playing,” Charles shared.

CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM IN KENYA STAINED BY PERVASIVE POLICE KILLINGS Global Information Network
F
or Kenyans who waited six years and one month for justice, a court finally handed them a decision finding three police officers guilty in the kidnapping of a human rights lawyer, his client and their taxi driver - all of whom disappeared after being locked up at a police station. The mutilated bodies of Willie Kimani, his client Josephat Mwendi and the driver Joseph Muiruri were found two weeks after their disappearance. They had reportedly been taken to an open field at night and executed, sparking outrage among Kenyans. Hundreds protested in the streets and a strike was called by Kenyan lawyers demanding an end to the extrajudicial killings by police that some called pervasive. The case highlighted the many extrajudicial killings and disappearances that have been linked to the Kenyan police. When he was disappeared, Kimani had been working for the Washington, DC-based International Justice Mission, a global organization that combats trafficking and slavery, violence against women and children and police abuse of power. At the time he was representing Mwenda who had been shot and injured by police. After the court ruling, Kimani’s wife Hannah spoke of six difficult years waiting for a decision. “I would like to say that us getting justice today offers a source of comfort to our hearts,” she said. “Although it may
not bring Willie Kimani back, it may bring comfort to our hearts.” Kenya’s Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) has received and processed 20,979 complaints in the 11 years since it was established, but only 3,437 investigations have been completed. By the end of last year, there had been 17 convictions and 141 cases filed before courts, the Guardian newspaper reported. When the murder of George Floyd sparked global uprisings against police violence, Kenyans also mounted greater public demands for accountability through grassroots organizing and a series of anti–policebrutality demonstrations. However, these protests have not been met with fewer killings or a significant change in police operations. In 2020, police killed or disappeared 167 people, according to Missing Voices Kenya, a consortium of human rights groups tracking extrajudicial killings. “We want to honor every life, but there are so many [killings],” said Wangui Kimari, an urban ethnographer who co-founded a social justice center in Mathare. “They become blurred in your mind because there are so many. Some we don’t even announce because it just happens so fast.” Kenyans have also turned to cell phone videos to record police violence and many can now be seen on YouTube. Sentencing of the three officers and a police informer will be announced at a later date.
First Malaria Vaccine to Roll Out in Africa
A bill before parliament in the Ivory Coast would upend monogamy and restore polygamy - a marriage that includes one husband and at least two wives. Outraged women’s groups call it a return to inequality. The move mirrors setbacks around the world including the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on Roe vs Wade. The bill, proposed by Yacouba Sangare of the ruling Rally of Houphouetists for Democracy and Peace, would acknowledge a practice still widespread across the country and therefore, he says, one that should be legally permitted. “Men have multiple wives and communities accept that. Exclusive monogamy doesn’t fit with our realities, our customs. “We can’t just copy-paste legislation that was put in place in Western countries. We have to give people the option,” he maintains. While polygamy has declined in recent years it is still widely accepted in Burkina Faso, Mali, and Nigeria, with a 10th of the population living in polygamous households, according to a 2019 study conducted by the Pew Research Center.

The war in Ukraine is draining millions of dollars away from crises in Africa as funds are being redirected to Europe.
Meanwhile, over 80 million people in the eastern African region are food insecure. Acute malnutrition is high, especially among children.
Somalia, facing a food shortage largely driven by the war, could be the most vulnerable. Its aid funding is less than half of last year’s level while Photo: Courtesy of GIN Western donors have sent more than $1.7 billion to respond to the war in Europe. A $2.2 billion appeal for Ukraine is almost 80% funded, according to U.N. data - an “exceptional” level for any crisis at the midway point of the year. By comparison, a smaller appeal for Somalia is just 30% funded. “They’re not saying openly, ‘We’re focused on Ukraine,’ ” said Nimo Hassan, director of the Somalia NGO Consortium. “But you can see what they’re doing in Ukraine.” Hassan and several others said they believe donor countries understand the urgency, but decision-makers in capitals like Brussels and London appear distracted by the war in Europe.

backer.
“We’re really trying to stave off mass deaths at this point,” Sarah Charles, assistant to the administrator for USAID’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance, told the AP, adding that “unfortunately, the nature of these crises is such that they go slow and then go very fast.” At a single hospital in Somalia, more than two dozen children have died of hunger in the past two months. Dr. Yahye Abdi Garun has watched their emaciated parents as they stumble in from rural areas that are gripped by the driest drought in decades. And yet no humanitarian aid arrives. Fleeing the drought, Somalis fill more than 500 camps in the city of Baidoa. There, aid workers are forced to make “horrific” choices to help one camp and ignore 10 others, Norwegian Refugee Council Secretary General Jan Egeland said, telling The Associated Press he is “angry and ashamed.” His group’s Ukraine appeal was fully funded within 48 hours, but its Somalia appeal is perhaps a quarter funded as thousands of people die.

California Black Health Network Free Short-Term Classes Prepare Students for Jobs
Reaches New Heights More than 250 statewide organizations join the Black Health Network Voice & Viewpoint Newswire
O
n July 22, the California Black Health Network (CBHN) announced surpassing a milestone of more than 250 Black Health Network (BHN) members, a new record reflecting a growth rate of 100% since December 2021. Established in May of that same year, the BHN serves as the membership arm of CBHN. The virtual community of likeminded health equity leaders, professionals, policymakers, advocates, individuals, and partners work together to ensure that Black Californians live a life free from violence, racism, and health inequities. In addition, the statewide network aims to inspire and empower members to advance health equity for Black Californians by offering them opportunities to build skills, knowledge and capacity, expand their impact, and engage in advocacy. “The Black Health Network is founded on The Principle of Ujumaa, which focuses on collective work and responsibility. Through harnessing our communal power and recognizing our brothers’ and sisters’ problems as our own problems, we can begin to eliminate health inequities for Black Californians,” says Jamila Jabulani, Network Mem-

As the BHN continues to grow, more offerings will be available to provide support and resources for students, individuals, community-based organizations,
and corporate members that aim to improve the health and well-being of the Black community. “We started the Black Health Network to provide a place where people who work to advance health equity for Black Californians could connect, communicate, and collaborate virtually. The significant growth that we have seen over the past few months and the robust engagement from our members proves that this was an unmet area of need, until now,” says Rhonda Smith, Executive Director, CBHN. “We expect to see 500 members by the end of the year, without showing any signs of slowing.”
How to Get Your Baby to Sleep Through the Night Voice & Viewpoint Newswire Trying to get a young baby to sleep through the night is challenging for every parent. Experts advise doing things like building a routine and weaning little ones off of night feeds to promote a longer sleep that lasts all night. Here are some tips on how to get your baby to sleep through the night:
Build a routine Sleep experts advise building a simple routine so you can ensure you are able to follow it each night. This could include bath time, a feed and some one-on-one time with your baby before putting them down to sleep. This way your baby will start to associate certain activities with bed time.
Establish a difference between day and night Try to teach your baby that there is a difference between day and night and they’ll soon learn that nighttime is for sleeping. Do this by having the curtains open in the day, doing activities together and having playtime. At night, try to keep the lights low, keep your voice quiet and avoid having too much playtime.
Give them a relaxing bath A warm bath will help relax your baby and will help them fall asleep quicker. The reason for this is that after a warm bath, your baby’s body temperature will lower and begin to cool, helping them to fall asleep.
Try to soothe your baby less in the night If your baby wakes up in the night, it’s instinct to soothe them until they fall asleep again. However this could prompt them to become reliant on you and they’ll start to think in order to fall asleep they must be held. When your baby wakes up in

the night, place your hand on their chest to calm them but then try to leave the room and reduce the time you spend in there - This will encourage them to soothe themselves.
Wean your baby off night feeds when appropriate Your doctor will tell you when it’s okay to begin weaning your baby off of the night feeds and when they do you should slowly cut back on them. A common technique is to dream feed your baby instead which should help them sleep for longer throughout the night.
Create a calming ambience Keeping your baby’s room dark and adding some soft lighting is a great way to create a calming ambience. You could even purchase a white noise machine which mimics the environment of the womb, making your baby feel safe and relaxed which will encourage them to sleep.
Have patience Getting your baby to sleep through the night isn’t an easy task and it takes both time and trial and error. Be patient with yourself and your baby as you both go through this transition.
Whether you’re interested in becoming a property manager, a teacher’s aide, an office clerk, or want to learn more about using Google apps, MiraCosta College is offering free short-term classes in fall 2022 to help train students for the job market. Students can earn a certificate in just a few weeks or no more than a semester. Classes begin August 22, and all are being offered online. The Affordable Housing Management certificate provides students with the tools and skills to be successful in the property management industry with an emphasis on affordable housing. Through a partnership with the San Diego Housing Federation, students will work directly with mentors from the housing industry. Classes are being offered in Introduction to Affordable Housing Management and Emerging Leaders in Affordable Housing Management. A certificate can be earned in eight weeks. The Teacher’s Aide certificate was created after MiraCosta College faulty member Regina Darling, who is also a K-12 instructor, noted a shortage of teacher’s aides in area school districts. The certificate can be earned after completing two of the three offered courses—The Basics, Educational Technologies, and Special Education.
Erica Duran, chair of the noncredit and short-term vocational programs at MiraCosta College, said the certificate program is designed for students interested in becoming a teacher’s aide as well as currently employed aides who want to brush up on their skills. “For those wanting to enter the field, it gives them a step up for applying if they don’t have any experience,” Duran said. The Office Clerk certificate was developed after area business leaders said they needed more qualified applicants for the available jobs. A certificate can be earned in one semester after completing five courses—Beginning Microsoft Word, Beginning Microsoft Excel, Applied Computer Skills, Word Processing, and Office Skills and Procedures. A Google Apps certificate was created to assist students in working with Google apps, such as Google Docs, Google Slides, Gmail, or Google Calendar. The apps are becoming increasingly common, especially for elementary and high school students, Duran said. “Many of our students are parents, and this was developed out of a recognition that our own students were struggling to help their kids,” she said. A certificate can be earned in eight weeks. To apply for classes, go to miracosta.edu/jobtraining. For more information, contact Erica Duran at eduran@miracosta.edu.
Southwestern’s Apprenticeship
Readiness Program Expands Voice & Viewpoint Newswire After nearly two years in San Diego County, the San Diego County Building & Construction Trades Council in collaboration with the San Diego Workforce Partnership, on July 14, announced that the High Road Construction Apprenticeship Readiness Program (ARP) will expand to Southwestern College. This free program will prepare students for well-paying careers, focusing on opening opportunities for under-represented populations to enter careers in the building and construction trades. “There are millions of jobs in the skilled trades, but millions of workers have never seen themselves in these jobs because they’ve never seen someone like them in these jobs,” said Carol Kim, Business Manager of the San Diego Building & Construction Trades. “Southwestern serves a diverse student population—nearly ninety percent students of color. On behalf of the member unions of the San Diego Building & Construction Trades, we can’t wait to welcome your students into rewarding careers as union workers.” The program will expand to Southwestern with a slated opening in Fall, 2022, after two successful years through San Diego College of Continuing Education
(SDCCE). SDCCE has placed 97% of graduates into construction careers and related college programs, with approximately 68% placed into targeted registered trade union apprenticeships – among the highest in the nation. The 12-week program is built on the nationally-recognized MultiCraft Core Curriculum (MC3) model developed by the National Association of Building Trades Unions and fast-tracks graduates to rewarding careers as union workers in the skilled trades. More than 10,000 skilled workers are needed in coming years to meet the demand simply for projects already approved in San Diego County, and the expansion to Southwestern will help prepare more students for rewarding union careers. Myesha Jackson, Director of Continuing Education and Special Projects Southwestern Community College District, highlighted that this program is free to participants, saying, “Thanks to the partners who make this program possible, we’re able to offer this valuable experience at no cost to our students—meaning that our students can earn valuable experience and certifications they wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford.” Register at workforce.org/apprenticeship-readiness.

The U.S. Senate on Tuesday, July 19, confirmed the nomination of South Carolina jurist Michelle Childs — recently under consideration for a slot on the U.S. Supreme Court — to sit on the federal court typically seen as a proving ground for the nation’s highest bench.
On Tuesday, she got support from some Republicans including both Graham and his fellow South Carolinian, U.S. Sen. Tim Scott.

Earlier this year, she was on a short list of candidates being considered by President Joe Biden for an upcoming vacancy on the U.S. Supreme Court, given the pending retirement of Justice Stephen Breyer. Childs had a litany of high-profile advocates, including U.S. House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn, on whose advice Biden pledged during the 2020 campaign to nominate a Black woman to the high court.

BLACK HISTORY 1868
1917
14TH AMENDMENT TO THE U.S. CONSTITUTION
THE NEGRO SILENT PROTEST PARADE
The 14th Amendment officially became part of the U.S. Constitution when Secretary of State William Seward issued a “without reservation” proclamation certifying it. One of the Reconstruction Amendments (alongside the 13th & 15th), it states in part:
When the East St. Louis-based Aluminum Ore Company hired Black workers to break a strike in early 1917, the White blue-collar population was enraged. A mob-led massacre of Black Americans extended across nearly a month, resulting in countless deaths and injuries. The NAACP organized a coalition of churches and civic groups, marching through New York in protest of the increasingly outrageous number of lynchings. Dead silent but for the sound of drums and feet, the 10,000 protesters carried signs highlighting the emotional toll of lynchings and the responsibility the government had to stop them. This is one of the first and the most successful early demonstrations against racial violence.
“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
