Community gathers about bad smells and noise on Perkins Road

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Community members from South Oxnard and Port Hueneme gathered to express their anger and frustration at Port Hueneme City Hall, Oct. 27, as the group gathered to organize and complain about foul odors coming from the wastewater treatment plant and paper recycling plant on Perkins Road.

The meeting featured Charles Cable, chief engineer from the City of Port Hueneme, Tien Ng, Assistant Public Works Director from the City of Oxnard, Mike Villegas, from the Ventura County Air Pollution Control District, and Matt Guthrie from Supervisor Kelly Long’s office all offering to do what they can to help.

Community Activist Tom Dunn said the group wants to solve a problem that has gotten worse over the last few months and the goal is to find the cause and solution.

Dunn said Robert Bromberg started the Hueneme Foundation about a year ago and knew the wastewater plant, which is 70 years old, had severe problems. The treatment plant did get some fixes in early 2000 that n Community, see page 3

NEWS OPD checkpoint nets three arrests The Oxnard Police Department Traffic Unit arrested three impaired drivers while conducting a DUI/ Driver’s license checkpoint on Oct. 26, 2018. Police conducted the checkpoint at Rose Avenue south of Camino Del Sol between the hours of 8 p.m. and 3 a.m., resulting in 671 vehicles being screened.

Three DUI-alcohol suspects were arrested, 23 drivers cited for operating a vehicle unlicensed or while suspended/revoked,36 citations issued, and two vehicles towed.

Police place checkpoints in locations that have the best opportunity for achieving drunk and drugged driving deterrence and provide safety for officers and the public.

In recent years, California has seen a disturbing increase in drugimpaired driving crashes. Oxnard PD supports the new effort from the Office of Traffic Safety that aims to educate all drivers that “DUI Doesn’t Just Mean Booze.” If you take prescription drugs, particularly those with a driving or operating machinery warning on the label, you might be impaired enough to get a DUI. Marijuana can also be impairing, especially in combination with alcohol or other drugs, and can result in a DUI. Studies of California drivers have shown that 30 percent of drivers in fatal crashes had one or more drugs in their systems. A review of active drivers showed more tested positive for drugs that may impair driving (14 percent) than did for alcohol (7.3 percent). Of the drugs, marijuana was most prevalent, at 7.4 percent, slightly more than alcohol.

Oxnard PD offers these reminders to ensure a fun night doesn’t get spoiled with a DUI: Decide before you go out whether you plan to drink or drive. You can’t do both.

If you plan to drink, designate a sober driver before going out, or map out another way to get home safely by taking a cab, ride-share services like Uber or Lyft, or using public transportation. You can also look up designated driver services in your area using the National Directory of Designated Driver Services (NDDDS).

If you are a designated driver, bars and restaurants statewide have created non-alcoholic specialty drinks (“DDrinks”) for sober drivers: http:// bit.ly/OTSDDrinks If you happen to see a drunk driver on the road, call 911. Offer a description of the vehicle, location, and direction of travel.

See your friend or other patron impaired trying to get behind the wheel? Take the keys or help them make other arrangements to get where they are going safely.

Drivers caught driving impaired and charged with DUI can expect the impact of a DUI arrest to be approximately $13,500, which includes fines, fees, DUI classes, license suspension, and other expenses not to mention possible jail time.

Oxnard PD will be conducting another DUI/Driver’s license checkpoint on November 9, 2018, in our ongoing commitment to take suspected impaired drivers off our streets and highways, ultimately lowering the risk for deaths and injuries.

The checkpoint was funded by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Whether by bike, car, motorcycle, or walking, the Oxnard Police Department encourages everyone to be a part of the solution and ‘Go Safely California.’

Oxnard Police and EMS respond to multiple drug overdoses On Oct. 24, 2018, the Oxnard Police Department and Emergency Medical Services responded to three calls for service involving drug overdoses in a fivehour period.

At 5:35 p.m., Oxnard police officers and EMS responded to a suspected heroin overdose in a North Oxnard restaurant bathroom. The 38-year-old male victim was revived by EMS personnel after being administered Naloxone (medication designed to reverse an opioid overdose and restore normal respiration rapidly) and transported to a local hospital.

At 8:03 p.m., the Oxnard Police Department received a second call for service at a sober living facility in West Oxnard. The staff at the facility located a 62-year-old male resident in the bathroom who was unconscious and not breathing.

Despite lifesaving efforts, EMS, unfortunately, was not able to revive the victim from a fatal heroin overdose.

At 10:04 p.m., the Oxnard Police Department received several calls for service regarding a subject disturbing in the central area of the city. The victim was a 33-year-old male who was transported by EMS to a local hospital for an overdose

from suspected methamphetamine use.

In the United States, approximately 115 people die each day as the result of overdosing from opioids. The addiction to pain relievers such as Hydrocodone, Oxycontin, Roxicodone has caused a dramatic increase in heroin use nationally and Ventura County.

Heroin is cheaper and a more readily available alternative to opioid pills. Heroin is often cut and mixed with fentanyl to increase the potency and profitability of the drug. Fentanyl is approximately 50 times stronger than heroin and is lethal in small dosages. A deadly dosage amount could be as little as the size of three grains of salt.

The Ventura County Combined Agency Narcotic Team (VCAT) has recently made seizures of counterfeit Roxicodone pills which tested positive for fentanyl by the Ventura County Crime Laboratory.

In addition, the VCAT seized several kilograms of raw fentanyl and would be more than enough to kill every resident in the City of Oxnard.

The seized counterfeit Roxicodone pills were identical in size, color, and manufacture stampings; thus the user would not be able to know if he or she was ingesting a fake pill which contains a potentially lethal amount of

fentanyl. Opiate pills are not the only counterfeit pills being illegally produced which contain fentanyl.

Recent seizures across the nation have found fentanyl in counterfeit Xanax (Alprazolam) pills, which is used to treat anxiety and panic disorders.

Ventura County had a total of 165 overdose deaths during 2017, which is up sharply from 116 in 2016; this is an alarming 42 percent increase. The City of Oxnard has had an increase in both fatal and non-fatal drug overdoses during that same period.

The City of Oxnard had approximately 35 fatal overdoses and 150 non-fatal overdoses in 2017. Since January 1, 2018, the City of Oxnard is on track with the previous year’s fatal and non-fatal drug overdose rates.

In 2017, Oxnard Emergency Medical Services first responders and the Oxnard Police Department officers administered Naloxone approximately 150 times in lifesaving efforts to combat the fatal overdose/opioid epidemic.

Since January 1, 2018, EMS has administered Naloxone 105 times to opioid drug overdose victims.

The opioid epidemic crosses all demographics and boundaries. The rate of addiction and overdoses have changed the lives of the nation and Ventura County residents. Very few

people can say they do not know somebody who is not affected by the epidemic. Victims range from family members, friends, church members, co-workers, associates to professionals, basically all walks of life. Opioid pill addiction often starts from painkiller use as the result of an injury or surgery or recreational use of opioid pills and progresses to heroin dependency.

Law enforcement in Ventura County has been collaborating with agencies such as Ventura County Behavioral Health to save lives and combat the opioid epidemic.

Oxnard Police Department patrol officers carry and have administered Naloxone to overdose victims.

In addition, VC Behavioral Health provides Naloxone kits for family members or people living with an individual struggling with opiate/opioid addiction. Naloxone kits have saved the lives of numerous individuals since being distributed to family members or friends. The administration of Naloxone restores breathing/ repository system, which buys vital time until EMS arrives.

If you know someone struggling with opioid addiction or drug dependency, please refer to the Ventura County Behavioral Health for a list of resources available. Opioid education is the first and most vital step to combat the epidemic.

Nutrient study is a big step in Channel Islands Harbor

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com The conversation about safe water in Channel Islands Harbor picks up with Aquatic Eco Technologies Scientist David Caron talking about phytoplankton that isn't created the same. Some are nastier than others.

“Some produce various types of toxins that we need to be aware of because they are toxic to us as well as marine life,” he said.

One such acid, he said, contains a neurotoxin.

“Organisms produce it in this particular group,” he said.

“These organisms were quite prevalent when we started, and then they dropped off. We don’t have evidence there are toxins produced, but this is something that we, as scientists, need to be aware of.”

Caron said there are

contributions from urbanization, agriculture and livestock, residential development and sewerage treatment that are potential nutrient sources in the harbor.

“When we are trying to look at why it is our garden grows quickly, we’re not just dumping Miracle Grow on there, we have several sources of Miracle Grow coming in the harbor,” he said. “All of the waste we create gets broken down and made back into the basic building blocks like nitrogen phosphorus these things use.”

Caron said their job is to try and identify where the primary nutrient sources come from as best they can.

“We have to address the big ones if we are going to address the problem in a meaningful way,” he said. “We can all go home and save our tub water, but chances are the tub water is not where the nutrients are coming from.”

Moving forward, the study is going to focus on nutrients going into the harbor, and factors leading to low dissolved oxygen.

“Remember, if we’re growing our plants too much, we’re causing drops in our oxygen, and potentially when the phytoplankton dies, all that bacteria is chewing oxygen up," he said. None of these things are separate from one another.”

Once the oxygen level gets low and animals start dying, Caron said all heck breaks loose.

“You lose the system and could be recovering it for quite a while,” he said. “We are focusing on nitrogen and phosphorus because I told you those are the two elements that plants need most. It’s what you typically put the most of on your garden.”

Those two elements are limiting, he said, and are what’s holding the train back. n Harbor, see page 6

OPD arrests a juvenile for stealing a vehicle

On Oct. 26, at approximately 9:23 p.m., officers from the Oxnard Police Department responded to Yucca and “C” Streets reference an injury traffic collision. One of the vehicles involved, a ’08 Silver Ford Escape, was reported stolen yesterday. The driver of the stolen vehicle, a female juvenile, was arrested for the unlawful taking of a vehicle (a felony), and additional charges. She had a complaint of

pain. Two people in the other involved vehicle also complained of pain.

Our city is currently experiencing a significant increase in stolen vehicles. To combat the problem, the Police Department is prioritizing taking a proactive, comprehensive approach to the prevention, enforcement, and investigation of stolen vehicles.

A significant percentage of the

stolen vehicles are preventable.

The Oxnard Police Department would like to remind residents of the following tips to prevent a vehicle from being taken: • Never leave your car unlocked, not even for a minute.

• Never leave your keys in the car, even if you think they are really "hidden."

• Don't leave your car idling and unattended because it is

unnecessary (it doesn't get cold enough here), it is unsafe, illegal, and someone can steal your car.

• Wheel locks, brake pedal locks, and steering wheel locks are also useful.

If anyone has any information regarding stolen vehicles contact Ventura County Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS or www. venturacountycrimestoppers.org to submit a tip via text or email.

Parade Leader Ellie Cardenas stops with the kids to get a treat and a smile during the Halloween Parade at the Channel Islands Farmers Market, Oct 28.

“We love Dr. Seuss,” she said.

“Last year, at Christmas, we went to Universal Studios for Grinchmas, and we planned it out that many months ago.”

CatBoy, Geko, Alouette and Luna Girl were in full costume and character for the parade.

“We’re having a great time,” Geko said. “I think we have enough candy, so we’re going to get a smoothie and hang out.”

Vendor James Patrick Gibeson from Fair Hills Farms had a long

line of kids ready for a delicious apple slice, instead of candy.

“This is so cool,” he said. “It makes the day so much more interesting, and I love it.”

He gave out around 20 apples cut into slices.

“I have an apple cutter, and it makes my job super easy,” he said.

“It slices them into 156 pieces fast.”

Drug Takeback scores in Port Hueneme

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Port Hueneme— Drug Takeback Day at Port Hueneme City Hall, Oct 27, was a community event that engaged police, the Explorers and the community.

Residents brought their old medications to the drop-off site and took advantage of the opportunity to dispose of them safely.

Port Hueneme Police Property and Evidence Supervisor Frank Montelongo said they’ve taken part in drug takeback day since 2012 when the program started.

“We have two permanent containers inside our lobby, specifically for pharmaceuticals and the other for sharps (syringes),” he said. “Residents from the City of Port Hueneme can come in any time during the day year-round, deposit their pharmaceuticals there

“They have enough to get them through for a while,” she said. “I know it will be a late night for everybody, but it will be worth it, for sure.”

Chris Peralta from Fresh and Fabulous was a willing volunteer and was ready to go in his Slash costume.

“I’ve been a disc jockey for years, I love music, and I wanted to be something more for people my age,” he said. “It could have been easy being a Ninja Turtle, like the kids here, but I wanted something a little more challenging.”

He went shopping at the thrift store for his attire.

“I love seeing all the community come together,” he said. “I moved here a couple of months ago. I work across the street, and it’s good to see the community do this kind of stuff.”

Bernice and Jimmy Romero came as mom and dad Incredible, based on the movie characters and try to do the couple thing every year.

“Last year we were Mr. and Mrs. Clean, and this year we are The Incredibles,” Bernice said. “We’ve done Fred and Wilma before.”

Jimmy said it was their third time at the event, which is family fun for his son and granddaughter.

“I’m surprised, son Desmond Romero said. “She (mom) texted me and said wait till you see what we are going to be.”

CeCe joined in the fun and along with Adrianna in the Belle dress, Madelyn as a witch and Carly as the baby doll made the event compete.

CeCe said she would try and scare the kids later but started laughing.

“They’re not afraid of it anymore,” she said. “We’re all set for Halloween.”

In previous years, Jimmy said that CeCe made a Shrek costume for Jimmy. “It took me two or three hours,” CeCe said.

Erica Cervantes handed out Girl Scout information for interested kids, along with candy.

“We also have pumpkin bowling and ring toss on the side,” she said.

In the past, she didn’t get dressed up.

“In the last two or three years, I just go with it and have fun,” she said.

“Last year I was a shark and this year I decided to be the crazy cat lady. It’s real life speaking to me. I am a crazy cat lady. I have six cats, and on top of that, I help out with the animal shelter, and I go to PetSmart once a week and help with the cat adoption center.”

amounted to band-aids.

“Bromberg's main objective was to put together a foundation that could get the right people who knew what was going on from all over the country, get grants from different departments in the government, local, state and federal and he is making some headway on it, but it’s quite a job,” Dunn said.

About three months ago, he said a new smell emerged that was more chemical in nature, different from the sewer plant smell which expanded what the foundation would do.

“He (Bromberg) has been in touch with people from UCLA who are environmental specialists, people who understand the chemicals,” Dunn said. “Because the wastewater plant does the sewerage treatment for the City of Port Hueneme, Oxnard, part of Camarillo, the Magu Naval Air Base and the navy it is vital to national security.”

What he cited was the water kept in place that goes on the ships would be spread over the Pacific Ocean, and if something happened that caused damage and made transportation impossible, it could affect what the military can do if they also had to coordinate an emergency.

“Bromberg has been working with the Department of Defense, the Department of Agriculture, because they don’t want the agriculture to go under or have a major catastrophe because if they do, we will lose food,” Dunn said. “The Department of

Transportation is also getting involved because of all the vital things that come in-and-out of the port for military, civilian and economics. If that were upset, you would have major issues.”

Dunn has lived at Hueneme Beach for 12 years and never smelled anything, but started smelling something in the last three months.

“Not nearly as much as people in “The Hideaway” or “Surfside 3,” so I know now what you’re going through.”

He recently had a 20-month-old great-granddaughter move in, and she likes to go outside and play.

“Every once in a while, if the window is open you can smell something coming through,” he said. “We want to make sure that young people and old people with medical issues are able to live here with a healthy atmosphere.

That got me even more curious about what we need to do.”

In addition to the pungent odor, Fell said there is also a noise issue for people who live within 500 feet of the plant.

“People are reporting allergies, they have them here, but people who work like my wife does around Thousand Oaks, they come home and start having irritations and are not right at all,” he said. “Recently, I had a report from one mom, her daughter came home from school, and they were smelling an awful smell at an elementary school. Last Saturday, I got an email from somebody who said ‘hey, we were over at Hueneme High School which is over on Bard and we

smelled this unusual smell,’ and on Friday somebody said they were over at Oxnard College and they smelled a strange smell.”

Dunn said the issue might be atmospheric as there hasn’t been much wind lately.

“These are things we need to look at,” he said.

Meeting attendees took turns relating their experiences including John Ortiz, who said the only place that smelled as bad was Belview Nebraska during his Air Force tenure where they had a rendering plant that made dog food.

“I finished my Air Force career and moved to Surfside 3 and began smelling that in 1999,” he said. “I smelled it intermittently and not as strong as it’s been in the past three months.”

Recently, he has been woken up by a putrid smell.

“We live on the back 40 of Surfside 3 facing the operations of this plant,” he said. “We see what’s going on; we hear what’s going on. It seems like they put their trucks in reverse and have their beep, beep, beep, going on for 20 minutes. What are they doing at night moving stuff around? I feel like we are being gassed and slowly exterminated.”

Dan Pipkin said his neighborhood “reeks” and his wife works at “The Hill” in Thousand Oaks and has no allergies, but when she comes home, she’s on a nebulizer.

“Lately, we have aerosolized oil

covering our property from one end to the other,” he said. “The last time we cleaned it up, but this time we went ahead and saved it, we like the sample, and I want to know what’s in the air.”

Debbie Clark told the crowd that “putrid” is a perfect word to describe the odor, but horrible metal banging disturbs the community.

“It sounds to me like metal shaving,” she said. “I don’t know what the heck that is,” she said. It could be from the car facility. We live at Surfside 4, behind the Pavilion on the top floor, so we have ocean, and we see over to Point Magu, and we get all the smells and noises. It’s definitely not the point.”

Guthrie agrees there is strength in numbers and it makes a difference.

“In the past couple of weeks, we’ve heard an increased number of complaints," he said. "We’ve received phone calls and emails to our office, a few of the speakers today I’ve been in communication with or on the phone and via email and some of those emails have included video footage that had the noises at night. Part of the challenge for us is we’re getting information possibly a little later than others.”

He said it would take a collaborative effort between Port Hueneme and Oxnard and his office is on top of the issue.

“Supervisor Long has been very clear; follow the issue, listen to the residents and show up at meetings like this,” Guthrie said.

Villegas said his office has heard the complaints and had his inspectors on location at Surfside, Hideaway, and The Bungalows but did not detect the odors in the neighborhoods but did find smell on Perkins Road because of the recycling plant.

“I’ve talked to three different people who have spent time at both plants, and the general sense was when you’re talking about the stronger odors you’re talking about the headwaters at the waste treatment facility, but we are picking up some of the new Indie Odors now,” he said.

Ng said he’s been working with the Hueneme Foundation for over two years.

“It took us two years to get the rate passed and the green light to have the improvements,” he said.

“We can talk a little bit more about the wastewater improvements, but there is immediate stuff we can do from our team, so we can come up and help.”

The city of Oxnard has established a 24/7 odor hotline, he said, and people can call anytime.

“A person will come out anytime within 20-30 minutes,” he said. “What we want to do is verify where it is coming from. Is it from the wastewater, we’ll be with the division manager the next morning.”

He said if you smell something, call and don’t be shy.

“You have to call,” Ng said. “We don’t have the resources to drive up and down.”

OPED

Lessons from Ruby Bridges

By Marian Wright Edelman I recently had the joy of presenting an award from the Washington Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights and Urban Affairs to Ruby Bridges.

As a six-year-old first grader in New Orleans in 1960, Ruby Bridges became the first Black student to attend an all-White elementary school in the South. She showed unforgettable loving forgiveness and courage when faced with ugly screaming White mobs who jeered and taunted her every day as she walked into William Frantz Elementary School. Federal marshals had to escort Ruby to school every day, but she never quit or turned back.

Norman Rockwell immortalized Ruby’s courage with his landmark 1964 painting The Problem We All Live With. Ruby astonished her teacher one day when she asked Ruby why she had paused and talked to the crowd of White adults that morning.

Ruby responded, “I wasn’t talking. I was praying. I was praying for them.”

And a little child shall lead us!

As a young psychiatrist Dr. Robert Coles volunteered to work with Ruby Bridges during her first year at William Frantz. Years later she collaborated with him on his 1995 children’s book The Story of Ruby Bridges to share with new generations what she experienced.

She realized after that book was published that children had even more questions about her life, so she wrote two autobiographies for young readers including her awardwinning book Through My Eyes.

Today she is the founder and head of the Ruby Bridges Foundation, which seeks to end racism and prejudice and promote tolerance, respect and appreciation across all differences.

Ruby’s messages of tolerance and mutual respect are so urgent right now. Equal access to a quality education for all children remains the unfinished business of the Civil Rights Movement and the nation.

Our country must wake up and stop the backwards slide away from fair treatment for poor and nonWhite children. When Ruby Bridges spoke at a Children’s Defense Fund conference she took us back to her

first year at William Frantz and a few key lessons she learned that shaped her life.

Ruby explained that her parents seized the opportunity for her to attend William Frantz because they understood it would provide a better education in our separate and unequal segregated school system still too prevalent today. On her first day of school she was unaware she was making history. The chaos of milling White crowds outside her New Orleans school reminded her of Mardi Gras and at first she thought she was part of a parade. Eventually it became clear that the White adults surrounding her with racial jeers and epithets were full of hatred not celebration. But then she met Barbara Henry, the White schoolteacher from Boston who was assigned to teach her all year alone after other teachers refused to teach a Black child. Barbara Henry’s kindness set an unforgettable example for Ruby: “You cannot look at a person and tell whether they’re good or bad. Evil comes in all shades and colors. That is the lesson that I learned from the teacher that looked exactly like the

people outside that threw things, spit, and yelled—she looked exactly like them, but she was different, and I knew that at six years old, because she showed me her heart.”

You cannot look at a person and tell whether they’re good or bad.

Evil comes in all shades and colors.

Ruby Bridges Learning that you can never judge anyone from the outside was the first lesson of that tumultuous year. A second was that we must all “become brothers and sisters.” “We must absolutely take care of one another.

It does take a village, but we have to be a village first. We have to take care of each other’s children.” She remembered some of the adults in her neighborhood who did this for her: “I was escorted every day by Federal marshals, but everyone on my street walked behind the car every day . . .

I would pass [the windows of a dry cleaners’ shop] every day, and all the men that worked in the dry cleaners would wave and say, ‘How are you doing today? You do good in school.’

So when I got my report card, I would stand by those windows . . . and they would see it and they would hand me dollar bills . . . That’s a community, and that’s what we need again.”

As an adult Ruby Bridges takes very seriously her own commitment to being part of that community needed to care for the next generation of children. She is a fierce advocate for integration and equity in education and for teaching children accurate history including stories like her own. She says: “If you really think about it, if we begin to teach history exactly the way that it happened, good, bad, ugly, no matter what, I believe that we’re going to find that we are closer, more connected than we are apart.” When she was told that her plan for educational equity was grandiose, she responded: “Well, it was a grandiose plan when you marched my little butt up those stairs back in 1960, but it happened.”

In a nation desperate for moral

leadership and vision we need many more citizens with grandiosity like Ruby’s.

In 2011, President Barack Obama invited Ruby Bridges to the White House to see Norman Rockwell’s iconic painting of her which was on loan to hang outside the Oval Office.

President Obama told her, “I think it’s fair to say that if it wasn’t for you guys, I wouldn't be here today.”

Ruby Bridges is an inspiring reminder that our entire nation owes a huge debt of gratitude not just to the adults who took a stand during the Civil Rights Movement but to the thousands of extraordinary children and youths who were frontline soldiers in the war to overthrow Jim Crow in American life, from the Birmingham Children’s March to the children locked in cattle pens in Jackson, Mississippi protesting segregation. Children were the frontline soldiers in desegregating our segregated schools across the nation. Our children and young people taught us to be courageous, to stand up against injustice and to do so with uncommon dignity, maturity, nonviolence, and grace. What a contrast to the ugly violent behavior of hate-filled adults all around them.

It’s time to thank Ruby Bridges today by following her example and supporting all our children who are standing up against injustice and pervasive gun violence because we adults have dropped the ball of adult responsibility. It’s time to ensure every child equal education, health care, a strong early childhood foundation and safe passage to adulthood. It’s time to replace the greed of those at the top to ensure the hopes and dreams of our millions of children crying out for hope and help. We must all follow Ruby Bridges’ example.

Marian Wright Edelman is President of the Children's Defense Fund, whose Leave No Child Behind’s mission is to ensure every child a Healthy Start, a Head Start, a Fair Start, a Safe Start and a Moral Start in life and successful passage to adulthood with the help of caring families and communities.

I Will Vote!

Choosing NOT to Vote Still Impacts You

By Jeffrey L. Boney “I Will Vote!”

That is such an empowering statement, when you think about it, especially considering how important voting is for Black people at this critical time in this country.

The voting rights of Blacks are being targeted and threatened every day and those threats have become extremely rampant over the course of the last several months leading up to these important midterm elections in a few weeks.

Early voting has begun in several states and the shenanigans have also increased. There have been a number of reports coming out across the country about voter disenfranchisement and voter suppression tactics that are negatively impacting African Americans, and it is startling.

In Georgia, for instance, Secretary of State Brian Kemp, who is also running for governor against Democratic opponent Stacey Abrams, who is African American, has been hit with a federal lawsuit after being accused of hampering minority voters from registering prior to the midterm elections on November 6. This is troubling, especially because Kemp is running for governor, while holding the office responsible for handling the important process of voter registration.

According to reports, Kemp’s office put approximately 53,000 voter registration applications on hold because of minor discrepancies, and although Blacks make up roughly 32 percent of Georgia’s population, approximately 70 percent of the applications in Kemp’s office that were placed in this voter registration pending status were those of Black applicants.

Back in August, the Houston Forward Times published an extremely troubling story entitled, Jim

Crow 2018 – Black Voting Rights under Attack in Harris County, highlighting a voter suppression tactic that took place where roughly 4,000 eligible Harris County voters, mostly African Americans located in Houston’s historic Third Ward, had their voting rights attacked by an independent operative who used an antiquated Texas state law to legally challenge their voting status.

The issue of voter disenfranchisement, voter intimidation and voter suppression is not new, just like protecting the voting rights of African Americans has been an ongoing fight for centuries and one that cannot be ignored. Voting matters.

Voting makes a difference.

After the Civil War, Black men were elected to the U.S. Congress and the South even elected some Black senators. These political gains and the progress made by Black people as a result of Reconstruction governments in the South, empowered many Blacks financially and socially.

Many Southern Whites knew that if they wanted to reestablish control and political dominance over Black people in this country, they would have to stop Black people from voting by any means necessary. Thus, the Ku Klux Klan was formed, which came with a primary focus of taking back the South through voter suppression, voter intimidation and voter disenfranchisement. Fast forward to 2018 and the apple has not

fallen too far from the tree, as it relates to many of the same tactics being used to disenfranchise Black people in this

The worst thing African Americans could ever do in the realm of politics is: Nothing. country politically through voter suppression, voter intimidation and voter disenfranchisement.

It is impossible for Black people to be disengaged politically, and then hope to get the best treatment, outcomes or results from the elected officials they failed to engage with while those candidates were running for their respective seats.

BOLD: Black people must get engaged and must vote.

H o w e v e r, choosing not to vote at all is a completely different situation altogether.

It is detrimental to the growth of the African American community. It does not help, it hurts.

There is a quote that is often referenced when describing someone who is not a part of a major decision that affects them that goes, “If you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu.”

The worst thing African Americans could ever do in the realm of politics is: Nothing.

African Americans must know it and must show it on November 6.

Black people must show that we are actually “at the table” and are no longer just “on the menu” come November 6.

To avoid being “on the menu” as the main course meal on someone else’s table, Black people must show up to the polls this election cycle and make their voices heard. Black people must do this, in spite of the continuous neglect and lack of concentration of reaching Black voters through the mediums they are accustomed to by both political parties. Black people must not rely on others to plead their cause or fight their overall battles for them. Black people must vote.

“We want the largest, Black voter turnout in American history,” said NNPA President and CEO Dr. Benjamin Chavis. “Voter suppression

is taking place, because we’re voting.

But we’re going to overcome voter suppression this year, as this is a payback year for African Americans all over the country at the polls.”

African Americans should use these midterm elections as a beta test for the 2020 Presidential election and use the results as a tool to make demands and ensure a dedicated seat at the head table prior to 2020. In Texas, straight-ticket ballots will go away, so neither political party will be able to take a lazy approach to proactively educating potential voters on who their candidates are.

More importantly, candidates of either party will no longer be able to simply skate in to office on party affiliation alone and must put in the necessary ground work and investments to make potential voters more aware of their position on the issues that matter to African Americans. The Black vote should no longer be considered a guaranteed vote.

Whether you believe your vote matters or not—and it most certainly does—every Black person will have to adhere to any law that is passed and every decision that is made by the elected body of representatives who hold every seat.

There is absolutely no level of complaining or reactionary response that will change that.

There are no acceptable excuses when it comes to voting. Either Black people vote or reap the consequences of not voting. Every Black person should get engaged in politics if they wish to bring about change. So, this is your chance to make a difference. Say it – I Will Vote!

Now go do it! Cast your vote early or be sure to vote on November 6.

Jeffrey Boney is an award-winning journalist.

I’m Dreaming of a Commercial-Free World Dr. James L. Snyder It was one of those really busy weeks where there was hardly enough time to breathe. For myself, I was glad the week was over and I could relax for the evening.

“What do you want for supper?”

The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage queried. “Do you want to go out for supper?”

Going out for supper was the last thing on my mind. All I wanted to do was relax here at the house.

“No,” I said rather hesitatingly, “why don’t we just order a pizza and stay home tonight?”

That brought a nice smile to her face. It is the one time that I made the right decision.

So, we ordered the pizza and were ready to settle down and enjoy the evening together watching TV. Nothing could be more relaxing after the kind of week we had. It was like two steps forward and five steps backward.

The pizza arrived in good time and we were ready to turn our back on the world, the past week and just enjoy our own little companionship.

Ordering pizza can sometimes be tricky. I like pepperoni, she likes mushroom and the twain never comes together. So we ordered a large pizza half pepperoni and half mushroom. That way I know I will get my half. I know she will not eat any of the pepperoni pizza.

We were all snuggled down in our easy chairs eating pizza, drinking soda and watching TV. “What do you want to watch tonight?”

“I don’t know,” she said hesitatingly, “anything is good for me tonight.”

We settled on one of those

Hallmark movies playing that night and began watching it. If you ever watched a movie on TV, you know that they cannot go long without breaking for commercials.

It was agitating to me, but I just indulged in my pizza and soda.

Then I heard a very deep sighing on the other side of the room. For a while, I pretended not to hear it.

I just kept munching on my pizza.

The sighing got louder and I tried to crunch louder. Unfortunately, the sighing won.

The next stage was, “I can’t believe all of that.”

Again, I tried to mind my own business and focus on the movie.

At the next commercial I heard somebody say, and it wasn’t me, “I am just about tired of all that.”

I am not sure what she was tired of; I was hoping it was not me. I know it wasn’t the pizza. You can only handle something for so long.

Finally, I said, “What are you tired of?”

“I’m tired,” she said most exasperatingly, “of all those commercials. I'm tired of them all.

I want them to go away.”

I had to agree with her at this point. I am so tired of commercials.

I am dreaming of some world where there are no commercials.

While watching this movie we decided to do a little bit of research.

After every part of the movie, it came to commercial time. When the commercials started coming we started counting them. Between every segment, there were 117 commercials. It seemed that way at least.

The worst part of these commercials was the fact that most of them were political commercials.

Personally, I think that should be

against the law. And the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage agrees with me. So, if she agrees with me it must be something of consequence.

If I want to see a commercial, I will go and watch a commercial.

After all, I do have a computer. But please, do not splatter my TV screen with commercial after commercial after commercial.

When a commercial comes on I can get up, go take a shower, shave

and practice my Yogi Berra before the next part of the movie begins.

I have noticed that if I am watching TV while eating something they always have commercials about diarrhea. Why do I want to know about that while I am eating? That is most disgusting.

Even more disgusting are political commercials. Again, I think it should be against the law for any political commercials to be on

my television. They should set aside one TV station that runs nothing but commercials 24/7. Then, if I want to watch a commercial, I know where to go.

If a political candidate wants to run for some office, they should write an essay about what they believe and post it on their website.

Then, if I want to know anything about them, I know where to go.

Only please, stay off my TV set.

While watching our movie, it became very confusing. It is hard to leap across the commercials to follow the story line. We decided to time things. The movie part would last about eight minutes and the commercial part would last over 10 minutes.

Talk about being unfair. I never turn the TV on to watch a commercial. It would be hard for me to find a commercial that I have any interest in whatsoever.

The only place I can find a commercial free environment is the Bible. “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works” (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

The one pleasure in reading the Bible is that there are no distractions.

so the kids could enjoy a trunk or treat event, as well.

“It’s a fantastic evening, and it seems to grow every year,” he said. “We had great partnerships in the community that ended up donating a lot of the candy.

I know upstairs there were 75100 large bags of candy and we’re probably going to run out.”

He loves seeing all the kids at the Spooktacular.

“Rather than seeing them in some other negative environment,” he said.

Public Information Officer Melissa Valdez came as Frida Kahlo from the movie “Coco.”

“We have a theme for the event, it's villains, classic Disney villains," she said. "I’m not so much a villain, but I picked a Disney movie."

She wants to encourage families and community members to be comfortable at the police department.

“A lot of times, small children, the only exposure they get at the police department is if they are coming for an issue,” she said. “We want to invite the public because this is their home as well.”

A member of “The Cruisers” car club came dressed as Dia Los

Muertos, or Day of the Dead and providing lots of spooky fun.

“I was handing out treats with the car club earlier, but we ran out, so now I am shaking hands and taking pictures,” he said.

Aaron Barajas got a picture with Chief Whitney and also grabbed a sweet treat from the top cop.

“He loves the Blue Angels,” Mom Lucille Barajas said. “I’m dressed as the mom.”

Aaron had a simple plan for the event.

“I want my bag full,” he said.

Jordan Leone came dressed as a giant dinosaur, along with Nathan Ramone, Bentley Leone, and Joaquin Guzman.

“The Blue Angels Fly in the sky!”

Jordan Leone came dressed as a giant dinosaur, along with Nathan Ramone, Bentley Leone, and Joaquin Guzman who was ready for fun.

“He thought it was cool and he wanted it," Bentley said about Jordan, who came dressed as a dinosaur. “My mom bought it, and he doesn’t like it anymore, but my mom said to deal with it.”

Nathan Ramone was dressed as “The Bandana” and was all

smiles.

“I like how it looks,” he said.

Joaquin Guzman came dressed as a hockey player.

“I like the blood on it,” he said.

Carrie Richards, Caitlin Lievre, and Isabella Duimvich came dressed as characters from Beauty and the Beast. The star of the group was Duimvich, dressed as Belle.

“I’m Mrs. Potts, and this is our inspiration here, the princess,” Richards said. “We

wanted to be her entourage.”

Lievre wanted to take her out and enjoy the event.

“She is my daughter, and I wanted to take her out because I won’t have her on Halloween.”

Lievre came dressed as Cogsworth, the clock from Beauty and the Beast.

“I love seeing the joy she has when she gets her dress on and is a princess for a day,” she said.

“She gets to go around and get candy at the end of the night.

She likes the candy part.”

“If you are removing sediment, you are removing lots of nutrients that are tied up in the sediments, and you’re finding out how much is in the water, how fast the water is moving and where it’s going,” he said.

Caron said baseline sampling is being completed by city staff and people are driving around “busting their butts” trying to get an initial baseline of nutrients in the water before the rain hits and doing a great job.

“We are going to do two storm events at three locations in the harbor,” he said.

“Everything that washes off the land is going to bring nutrients with it, and depending on

where it comes it may bring a lot of nutrients with it. We need to know when the rains hit, what're the concentrations in the harbor.”

He said there would also be dry weather sampling, sediment sampling and anything in the water that makes it murky and dies.

“It’s either going to get washed out or fall to the bottom,” he said, “A lot of nutrients get incorporated into the sediment, and they are not out of the picture. If there is a shallow harbor or lake, those nutrients will come back to haunt you, they’ll come up, cause more trouble and fall back down and things die.”

“People will go through the trash, take it and they have controlled substances,” he said.

Montelongo said getting Explorer volunteers was no problem and the group arrived bright and early at 7:30 a.m. ready to work.

Senior Explorer James Bell had his volunteers folding boxes and getting them ready for disposal.

“Law enforcement is a career I want to go into and doing this is an opportunity to learn and see first hand the stuff that a police officer goes through every day,” he said.

“We’re getting quite a bit of drugs. We work well as a team.”

He loves going on ride-alongs as an Explorer and seeing what happens every day.

“I see how they interact with people in the community and create a bond between people,” he said.

Montelongo said the group collected over 1,000 pounds of old medications.

“We usually average between 1,000 and 1,500 pounds a year at our site,” he said. “We have a little bit during our DEA Takeback Day, and we don’t get as much because we are a year-round site. Some agencies only participate on this day.”

Harbor continued from page 2

“If you give them a lot of those, the train takes off,” he said. “We’re going to try and figure out where the source of that material is coming from.”

Caron shared the blame for growth in the harbor and said everyone is to blame, including boats, agriculture, residential, and aerial deposition, to a lesser extent.

"Any of these sources might be significant, and if they are, that presents an approach to try and reduce the amount those sources are contributing,” he said.

Getting rid of nutrients is one possibility, but if you get rid of nutrients, or flush them, you’re getting rid of water.

The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $207,211.52 If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder's sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned or its predecessor caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 2802832 or visit this Internet Web site WWW. AUCTION.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 071415-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by GERALD E. OLSEN AND JOAN C. OLSEN in the Superior Court of California, County of Ventura.

THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that GERALD E. OLSEN AND JOAN C. OLSEN be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held on 11/28/2018 at 9:00 AM in Department J6 located at 4353 E. Vineyard Avenue, Oxnard, California 93036.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing.

Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor.

You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250.

A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

A.P.N #.: 200-0-434-145 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information.

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (714) 8489272 or visit this Internet Web site www. elitepostandpub.com, using the file number assigned to this case 17-48542. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

HEALTH Trump Says New Proposal Will Lower Some U.S. Drug Prices

By Ricardo Alonoso-Zaldivar and Deb Reichmann

nearly twice as high as in foreign countries. The list includes many cancer drugs. Medicare pays directly for them under its “Part B” coverage for outpatient care.

Physician-administered drugs cost Medicare $27 billion in 2016.

HHS says the plan would save Medicare $17.2 billion over five years. Beneficiaries would save an estimated $3.4 billion through lower cost-sharing.

The plan could meet resistance

WASHINGTON (AP)—Less than two weeks before the midterm elections, President Donald Trump on Thursday announced a plan to lower prices for some prescription drugs, saying it would stop unfair practices that force Americans to pay much more than people in other countries for the same medications.

“We are taking aim at the global freeloading that forces American consumers to subsidize lower prices in foreign countries through higher prices in our country,” Trump said in a speech at the Department of Health and Human Services.

“Same company. Same box. Same pill. Made in the exact same location, and you would go to some countries and it would be 20 percent of the cost of what we pay,” said Trump, who predicted the plan will save Americans billions. “We're fixing it.”

But consumers take note: • The plan would not apply to medicines people buy at the pharmacy, just ones administered in a doctor's office, as are many cancer medications and drugs for immune system problems.

Physician-administered drugs can be very expensive, but pharmacy drugs account for the vast majority of what consumers buy.

• Don't expect immediate rollbacks. Officials said the complex proposal could take more than a year to put into effect.

In another twist, the plan is structured as an experiment through a Medicare innovation center empowered to seek savings by the Affordable Care Act. That's the law also known as “Obamacare,” which Trump is committed to repealing.

Trump has long promised

Don't expect immediate rollbacks. Officials said the complex proposal could take more than a year to put into effect.

sweeping action to attack drug prices, both as president and when he was running for the White House.

He made his latest announcement just ahead of the Nov. 6 elections, with health care high among voters' concerns.

Under the plan, Medicare payment for drugs administered in doctors' offices would gradually shift to a level based on international prices. Prices in other countries are lower because governments directly negotiate with manufacturers.

Drugmakers immediately pushed back, arguing the plan amounts to government price-setting.

“The administration is imposing foreign price controls from countries with socialized health care systems that deny their citizens access and discourage innovation,” Stephen Ubl, president of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, said in a statement. “These proposals are to the detriment of

American patients.”

Trump is linking the prices Americans complain about to one of his longstanding grievances: foreign countries the president says are taking advantage of U.S. research breakthroughs.

Drug pricing expert Peter Bach of Memorial Sloan Kettering's Center for Health Policy and Outcomes called the plan “a pretty substantive proposal” but one that faces “serious political challenges.”

“The rhetoric about finally dealing with foreign freeloading suggests that we are going to take steps to get other countries to pay their fair share for innovation,” Bach added.

But that's “quite literally the opposite of what is being proposed. What is being proposed is that we freeload off of other countries' ability to negotiate more effectively.”

Democratic leaders on Capitol Hill were dismissive. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of

California said if Trump wants to save seniors money he should seek congressional approval for Medicare to negotiate prices for its main prescription drug program, “Part D.” Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer of New York said “it's hard to take the Trump administration and Republicans seriously about reducing health care costs for seniors two weeks before the election.”

The health insurance industry, at odds with drugmakers over prices, commended the administration's action.

As an experiment, the proposal would apply to half the country.

Officials said they're seeking input on how to select the areas that will take part in the new pricing system. HHS Secretary Alex Azar said politics would have nothing to do with it.

In advance of Trump's speech, HHS released a report that found U.S. prices for the top drugs administered in doctors' offices are

not only from drugmakers but from doctors, now paid a percentage of the cost of the medications they administer. However, HHS officials said the plan is designed so it would not cut into doctors' reimbursements.

Azar said more plans are being developed on drug costs.

“This is not the end of the road, the end of the journey,” he said.

“There is more coming.”

Trump has harshly criticized the pharmaceutical industry, once asserting that the companies were “getting away with murder.” But it's largely been business as usual for drugmakers even as Trump has predicted “massive” voluntary price cuts.

A recent Associated Press analysis of prices for brand-name drugs found far more increases than cuts in the first seven months of this year. The analysis found 96 price hikes for every price cut. The number of increases slowed somewhat and they were not quite as steep as in past years, the AP found.

The Trump administration proposal is open for public comment for 60 days.

Poll: Young People Back Single-Payer Health Care

By Juana Summers WASHINGTON (AP)—Large majorities of young Americans want to see an expansion of government services, including a single-payer health care program, according to a new poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and MTV. According to the poll, 69 percent of young Americans between the ages of 15 and 34 favor a national health plan, known as a single-payer program. Eighty-eight percent of young Democrats and 40 percent of young Republicans favor a government-run health insurance program, according to the poll. Roughly two-thirds of young independents are in favor.

Young Americans called health care a very important issue in deciding how to vote. Sixty-two percent of those who will be old enough to vote in the midterms rated it as such. That's the most who said the same of any issue in the poll, including immigration and the economy.

Thirty-three-year-old Jasmine Miller, of Detroit, said that she pays $800 a month for health insurance to cover herself and her son. Miller, who describes herself as a humanitarian, said that health care is among the issues she cares about most.

“It should be a universal standard for health care,” said Miller, who prefers Democrats. “If we do have to pay deductibles, at least let our premiums be lower.”

Christopher Edwards, 28, of Columbia, Missouri, said health care was among the most

Elaine S. Povich / TNS

important issues for him as he looks ahead to the midterms.

“People sometimes get sick, and sometimes medicine is what they need,” said Edwards, who described himself as a moderate Democrat.

Majorities of young Americans also favor other types of expansion of government service, including free public college and trade school. Sixty-six percent of young Americans say they support free public college tuition. Seventy-nine percent of young Democrats and 39 percent of young Republicans are in favor.

Among independents, 72 percent said they supported free tuition.

Younger people typically do not turn out for midterm elections in great numbers. According to the new poll, more than half of young voters say voting in the upcoming midterms is very important, but just 32 percent of those who will

be old enough say they're certain to cast a ballot.

Jannette Ramirez, 27, of Winter Haven, Florida, said

According to the poll, 69 percent of young Americans between the ages of 15 and 34 favor a national health plan, known as a single-payer program. she would “probably” vote in November's elections, but she was unsure how much impact her vote would have.

“I can vote all day long, every day, 30 times a day and still my opinion wouldn't matter,” said Ramirez, who described herself as a political moderate.

Liberal Democrats are more excited than other young people about participating in the political process, according to the poll. Seventy-six percent said they are reading and watching news about November's elections, compared with 58 percent of young Americans overall.

Similarly, 71 percent of liberal young Democrats called voting in the midterms very important, compared with 54 percent of young Americans overall.

Miller, who is a tax preparer, said that while she will absolutely vote in November's election, she's frustrated by the tone of politics today.

“It's more like a big high school argument,” she said.

Dialysis Companies Spend $111 Million to Kill Ballot Measure

By Sophia Bollag SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP)—Dialysis companies have contributed an extraordinary $111 million to defeat a California ballot initiative.

Proposition 8 would cap profits for dialysis clinics that provide treatment for people with damaged kidneys.

A $5 million donation from dialysis company Fresenius pushed the antiProposition 8 campaign's total past the $109 million pharmaceutical companies spent two years ago to defeat a measure limiting prescription drug costs.

Proposition 8 opponents have raised more than any group on one side of a U.S. ballot issue since at least 2002. Ads blanketing the California airwaves feature dialysis patients saying passage could lead to clinic closures that endanger their lives.

The campaign supporting the measure, led by the Service Employees International Union, has spent $18 million. Supporters say passage will ensure dialysis companies put patients before profits.

Kelly's 'Blackface' Remarks Amplify Halloween Costume Debate

By Terry Tang PHOENIX (AP)—NBC talk show host Megyn Kelly's comments about blackface on Halloween have reinvigorated a debate over costumes that cross racial lines and what's appropriate at a time when diverse movie and TV characters like “Black Panther” have become hugely popular.

The issue has reverberated across social media, from magazine articles about whether “Black Panther” is an OK costume for white children to protests against costumes that perpetuate Native American stereotypes. Social media debates have focused on whether political correctness is spoiling the spirit of the holiday.

The fallout was swift for Kelly, who questioned on her show why dressing up in blackface for Halloween is racist: NBC said Friday it was canceling “Megyn Kelly Today.”

She found little support from her NBC colleagues, including Al Roker who called on her to apologize to people of color nationwide. He later was asked on Twitter if a woman's white son was OK to dress as his idol, “Black Panther.”

“Sure he can. Just don't try to wear dark makeup on,” Roker wrote.

Others chimed in on the thread, including Jeff Schwartz, whose white 7-year-old son also wants to don the Marvel character's vibranium suit.

“We should encourage our kids to have Black heroes whether they're white or Black kids. That's healthy,” Schwartz told The Associated Press.

Some articles warn white parents away from such a choice, arguing that while Black Panther's fabled homeland “Wakanda” isn't a real place, the character's race is essential to his identity.

Elise Barrow, a Black mother of three in New York City, said she and her husband tried to persuade their 5-year-old son to be Black Panther, but he opted to be a dinosaur instead. Barrow said she was torn by the debate.

“Kids want to be what they

want to be. I'm not going to prevent them,” Barrow said. “If my son wants to be Captain America, I'm not going to say no.”

A similar issue cropped up in recent years with the animated features “Moana,” set in ancient Polynesia, and Pixar's “Coco,” which centers on a Mexican boy named Miguel and his family. A few months before “Moana's” November 2016 release, Disney pulled a costume based on the character of Maui, voiced by Dwayne Johnson. The ensemble included a brown bodysuit with Polynesian tattoos and a fauxgrass skirt. Some argued that it was off-putting to have a child wear the skin of another race.

Jim Quirk, a white father of three in St. Paul, Minnesota, said adults should stop projecting concerns about race and gender onto what is essentially “a kids' holiday.”

“They want to be princesses, doctors, Black Panther or whatever,” Quirk said. “They do it because they want to be like them. It's adults who put meaning onto these things.”

But he

acknowledges there are some things that are over the line, such as blackface.

“You shouldn't be disrespectful,” Quirk said.

Calling out cultural appropriation is what drives Amanda Blackhorse, a longtime activist against the use of Native images for mascots and logos. On Wednesday, Blackhorse and others demonstrated outside the Phoenix headquarters of Yandy. com, a lingerie company that has been selling “sexy” Native costumes including one marketed as “Chief Wansum Tail.”

Her group delivered an online petition with thousands of signatures calling on Yandy to stop using Native American culture for costumes.

“The people have always looked at or seen Native people

By Lauren Victoria Burke Pioneering poet and playwright Ntozake Shange died on the morning of October 27 at an assisted living facility in Bowie, Maryland. She was best known for her much celebrated Obie Award-winning play, “For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow is Enuf.”

“To our extended family and friends, it is with sorrow that we inform you that our loved one, Ntozake Shange, passed away peacefully in her sleep in the early morning of October 27, 2018. Memorial information / details will follow at a later date,” her Twitter account announced.

Shange, who turned 70 on October 18, had suffered multiple strokes over the last few years.

She died in her sleep.

Fuse Media made a multi-year agreement to become the exclusive multiplatform media home of the ALMAs.
