Douglass High could close, barring enrollment boost Local politicians nonetheless expressed support for performing arts designation By IGOR STUDENKOV Contributing Reporter
Two Austin aldermen expressed their support for Douglass Academy High School’s effort to become a performing arts school, even as the school’s declining enrollment threatens the its ability to stay open. Douglass staff, parents and Local School Council members have been hoping to acquire a performing arts designation for Douglass — a designation that’s similar to Washington Park’s Dyett High School. During a March 7, community meeting held inside Douglass’s cafeteria, Aldermen Chris Taliaferro (29th) and Emma Mitts (37th), whose wards make up most of Austin, said that they would do whatever they can to ensure that the school secures the designation. Many people who attended the meeting, however, expressed concern about factors that might deter students from choosing to attend Douglass, which could close if at least 100 freshmen don’t enroll for the upcoming fall semester. Declining enrollment at Douglass has been an ongoing issue in recent years. According to Chicago Public Schools data, the school currently See DOUGLASS HIGH on page 4

Student play explores Austin Blvd.’s divide ‘Crossing Austin Boulevard’ delves deep into charged racial histories
By TERRY DEAN AustinTalks
Austin Boulevard’s dividing line between Oak Park and Chicago’s West Side is the subject of a new play debuting this month at the neighboring suburb’s high school. Students at Oak Park and River Forest High School will debut “Crossing Austin Boulevard” March 17-20. The students and their teacher, Avi Lessing, have been in rehearsals for the last month.
The play features both acted-out scenes and monologues, with a focus on Oak Park’s housing integration efforts beginning in the early 1970s. The play will also look at how street boundaries like Austin Boulevard keep communities separate rather than bring people together. “The students have become really interested in telling that story,” Lessing said during an afternoon rehearsal at OPRF. About two-dozen students are involved as actors, writers, set designers and marketing the production.
Incorporated in 1902, Oak Park began a concerted effort to promote integration through fair housing programs in the late 1960s and early 1970s. “As a teacher, I didn’t know about Oak Park’s intent at integration and the Oak Park Housing Center,” said Lessing, who’s taught English at the high school since 2003 and been its theater director since 2005. “When we talk about borders – those inSee CROSSING AUSTIN on page 6

Sandra Harrison, social innovator Last week, I talked with Sandra Harrison, an Austin native who worked for a nonprofit that facilitated the CeaseFire program in suburban Maywood, for an upcoming story that explores CeaseFire’s absence on the West Side. Harrison has since moved on to found or co-found two nonprofits, DVA Leadership and Development Training Consultants and Leaders In Transformational Education. She discussed how important cooperation among service providers is to meeting the needs of residents in low-income, violenceridden neighborhoods like Austin. She also talked about technology in education. I can tell you there are a lot of services in these communities. People say they don’t get money, but they do. There’s foundation, federal and state money, but too often the entities getting the money don’t work together. If a kid drops out of school and gets pregnant, who’s directing her to the alternative school, who is helping her navigate the different support systems at her disposal? Nobody is coordinating those efforts. That’s what Leaders In Transformational Education does.
On today’s education disconnect We’re asking kids to go to school today
and learn the exact same way we learned when we went to school. I was in school in the early 1970s and back then listening to the teacher while she writes on a board was fine. Now, you have kids with smart phones in their hands during class. They have the whole world in their hands. You can’t expect them to learn the same way. The kids going to school now are the first generation ever to not know what it’s like to live without the kind of technology we’ve gotten used to [in 2017]. CONTACT: michael@austinweeklynews.com ww

DOUGLASS HIGH
Transformation wanted from page 1 has 155 students. As a result, it continues to lose funding. Based on CPS’s student-based budgeting model, the share of money going to individual schools is determined by how many students they serve. Catherine Jones, a member of Douglass’s LCS, said that residents’ concerns about criminal activity around Lake St. and Central Ave. are a significant factor in the school’s declining enrollment numbers. Mildred Wiley, the chairperson of the Austin Community Action Council and the chair of the March 7 meeting, said that CPS officials told her that, contrary to what many people involved in the discussions had believed, Douglass doesn’t need the Chicago Board of Education’s permission to become a performing arts school. Douglass officials only need to go before the board in order to request more money to hire additional teachers or implement additional programs. Wiley added that, although the Chicago
school board isn’t considering closing Douglass immediately, things could change if enrollment drops next semester. “The school is closed if we can’t [get] 100 freshmen,” she said bluntly. According to Robert Crawford, Douglass’s dean of students, around 83 percent of the school’s students attend classes regularly, while almost 89 percent are on track to graduate. Thirteen students are on honor roll and six out of the school’s 27 freshmen are maintaining straight A’s. Douglass officials said that, despite the deep cuts, the school still offers a PE dance class, art classes for girls during lunch hour, a culinary arts program and an afterschool drama program. They said that they hope to build on these programs in the future. But that building process is difficult when so much of the positive work that goes on inside of the building gets overshadowed by what’s happening outside of it, officials said. “Last year … we were told [by elementary school principals] that Douglass wasn’t seen in a positive light,” said Douglass’s principal, Vanessa Dereef, who called into the March 7 meeting. “They want to be able to ensure that they send students to schools that provide [students] the rigor to be col-
lege-ready.” By acquiring a performing arts distinction, Douglass could significantly improve its current reputation and boost enrollment levels, Dereef said. Wiley said that, since Douglass doesn’t have attendance boundaries, the school will look to recruit students from areas throughout the West Side, including West and East Garfield Park. “The great thing about this location is that it can be accessible by bus or [Green ‘L’ line] train,” she said. “We want to recruit kids from Belmont-Cragin to come down here, too.” Wiley said that numerous community organizations have been working with Chicago police, and 15th District Commander Dwayne Betts in particular, to improve safety in the area around the school. Taliaferro said that the police are currently investigating some businesses in the area that might contribute to the crime. The alderman also expressed his support for the performing school designation, adding that “performing arts can create opportunities” and scholarships. Taliaferro said he’d be willing to meet with members of the Chicago school board on Douglass’s behalf. Randel Josserand, chief of schools for
CPS Network 3 — which includes all schools in Austin, Galewood, Belmont-Cragin and Montclare — said that he also supports the proposal to make Douglass a performing arts school and the idea of recruiting students from other neighborhoods in the city. Mitts expressed her support while also cautioning meeting attendees about attempts to expand the Noble charter school network’s ITW David Spee Academy, which is located in the Belmont-Cragin portion of her ward. She said the expansion wouldn’t benefit Austin. Amara Enyia, the head of the Austin Chamber of Commerce and an Austin Weekly News columnist, said that she supports Douglass becoming a performing arts school before describing her organization’s attempt to re-establish the area within walking distance of Austin Town Hall as the Austin Arts and Culture Campus. Douglass was included in a preliminary proposal for the campus that Enyia introduced last May. The preliminary proposal outlined the possibility of locating a center for working families and literacy programming within the school. CONTACT: igorst3@hotmail.com

We must finally do right by Douglass Academy High School
e have an opportunity to right an injustice that is being done to the Austin community. As talks of the transformation of Frederick Douglass Academy High School continue, let’s do the right thing for the Austin community. As an elected official representing the Austin community, I envision Frederick Douglass Academy High School as a sustainable community school equipped with wrap-around supports, with an emphasis on blended learning and constructivist teaching models. We need to accomplish these things for our community: Immediately create an active and strong democratically elected Local School Council (LSC). Establish in the school an advanced placement (AP), international baccalaureate (IB) and college prep curriculum that is relevant, critical, action-based and child-centered that meets the needs of all learners. Upgrade the school with modern computer equipment for blended learning (in which a student learns at least in part through delivery of content and instruction via digital and online media with some element of student control over time, place, path or pace). Upgrade the art and music spaces, and ensure there is a well-functioning library with a certified librarian. Implement properly staffed, trained and
certified restorative justice and social emotional programs reaching into the students’ homes to eliminate the school to prison and poverty pipeline. Modernize the athletic programs with the building of a multi-purpose track and football field. Create a free and universal pre-K program for local families and/or high school students with children, and assist students who need childcare for their children. Enhance and improve medical, behavioral and social services to students and their families at the existing in-school clinic – with better coordination with current CPS nursing staff – to better identify and overcome medical, mental health and social barriers faced by students and families to ensure the student’s success in school. Add extra staff for special needs services for all students who are three grade levels below grade level to ensure all students are college-ready. Limit class size so teachers can more effectively teach, especially when many students have serious learning problems not previously identified. Reinforce the work of teachers who are convinced that they can have an impact on their students in spite of any challenges that the students may face – social challenges must be addressed, but they cannot

Ensure there is a cadre of substitute teachers who know the students and can teach a class during teacher absence. Emphasize strong and stable leadership for the high school; high expectations for students; and an orderly pleasant atmosphere for students, staff and families. Ensure adequate security so consequences for infractions are not ignored because of a shortage of security. Make available programming space more easily available to local after-school programs and community organizations providing youth-centered activities, as well as adult GED options.
We have an incredible opportunity to create a new Frederick Douglass Academy High School by providing the community with a sustainable community school. In the interest of advancing justice, fairness and equity, when we enrich Frederick Douglass Academy High School with resources and invest in the school community, we will have a positive impact on the whole community. I look forward to working with all interested stakeholders to help to marshal the necessary support and resources for a great, successful community high school in Austin. — La Shawn K.

HIDDEN WONDER: The Austin Branch Library considers retired teacher Leon Williams a community staple. He’s an institution within an institution.
Austin Library finds ‘great asset’ in local educator
The bond retired teacher Leon Williams has with those he tutors is more than academic By LEE EDWARDS Contributing Reporter
Retirement has not dampened former Chicago Public Schools educator Leon Williams’ desire to teach in his community. Since 2001, Williams has tutored youth as part of the Chicago Public Library’s “Teacher in the Library” program at its Austin branch, 5615 W. Race Ave. The goal of the program is to provide an additional academic resource to every library in the CPL system. According to CPL spokeswoman Alex Trimble, nearly 100,000 total sessions were provided by the program across all 80 branches during the 2015-16 school year. Williams said his inspiration for teaching and tutoring comes, in part, from growing up in Memphis and Chicago without having a tutor to help him with school work. He said he sees himself in his pupils. “There were times when I needed help with homework, but I didn’t have anyone I could go to who was familiar with the math and science,” said Williams, who described his opportunity to tutor youth is a “privilege.” Williams taught elementary school math and science from 2001 to 2004. He was later promoted to work in CPS’ Office of Math and Science as a city-wide math and science specialist. He did that for three years. As an instructor of math and science teachers, Williams would eventually work his way
up to being responsible for 30 schools. Williams earned his associate’s degree from Malcolm X College before pursuing both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree from Northeastern Illinois University. He also has a master’s degree in science from the University of Illinois at Chicago. Prior to teaching, he worked in the chemical industry for 30 years before retiring in 1998. Williams said he first began tutoring years ago at St. Martin De Porres Church, 5112 W. Washington Blvd., where he would help youth with their homework on weekends. Latrice Ferguson, a children’s librarian at the Austin Library, said it was “great” to have a certified teacher like Williams available. “The kids really like working with him,” said Ferguson. “There are kids who are regulars here who seek him out.” She elaborated that some youth come to the library just to spend time with Williams, regardless if they need homework assistance or not. “He’s a real asset to the community,” said Ferguson. She said Williams’ consistency at the library has allowed him to become some students’ primary educator throughout their entire academic careers. The Teacher in the Library program is entirely funded by The Chicago Public Library Foundation. Austin resident and Chicago Public Library Foundation board member Dia S. Weil and her husband, Ed Weil, personally see to it the Austin Library’s program is funded, said Trimble. For more information about the Austin Library visit https://www.chipublib.org/locations/6/.

CROSSING AUSTIN Dramatic division from page 1 visible barbed wires – what’s the difference between integration and diversity, and what do we mean by integration?” he said. “And when we talk about race, are we just talking about white and black people? What about boarders and communities with a majority Latino population?” Austin Boulevard, the boundary between Chicago and Oak Park, has been the focus of other recent artistic works. Logan Square resident and Chicago public schoolteacher Jeff Ferdinand’s book, Austin Boulevard: The Invisible Line between Two Worlds, hit bookshelves in October 2016. It looks at racial and economic disparities between Chicago’s black and white residents, and also explores Oak Park’s history. Lessing said he’s reached out to Ferdinand about the book. For the last several weeks, Lessing’s students have researched Oak Park’s history, looking through school archives and talking with longtime residents involved in the initial housing movement. The students have developed their scenes from that research. Lessing said some form of audience interaction might also be in-
cluded in the performance. Sydney Jackson, an OPRF senior, has been promoting the show on social media. A dancer and community volunteer, Jackson, 18, said the play can help get people talking about these important issues. “I think what we’re doing is really important,” said Jackson, who hopes to perform in the play. “There are many community members in Oak Park who want to address, I call it the electric fence, that separates the east and west sides of Austin. But people don’t know how to attack it themselves.” Crossing Austin’s boarder into Oak Park is something OPRF senior Jalen Reese experienced recently. The 17-year-old enrolled late in the semester this past October. Two of his teachers encouraged him the join the production because of his story. The Chicago native said he had a hard time adjusting to middle-class Oak Park and the high school’s diverse campus. “I felt like I really didn’t have a place here,” said Reese, whose grandmother lives in Oak Park. Still learning to adjust to his new school, Reese has had some highlights, including earning Student of the Quarter in English. Reese said he’s comfortable sharing his personal story in the play. “I take the Austin bus to get home (to see family), and you can really see the differences, and I see that every day,” Reese said. “I’m

‘Get Out,’ a solid thriller, will spark much-needed dialogue The controversial film, directed by half of ‘Key & Peele,’ hilariously explores life in post-Obama America
By ROBERT FELTON Contributor
Since its February 24 release in the United States, “Get Out,” the controversial horror film that takes a satirical look at race relations, has racked up $87.4 million at the box office on a mere $4.5 million budget. This kind of success could lead to the production of more films that analyze race seriously using satire. In the movie, a young photographer named Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) travels to upstate New York with his white girlfriend Rose (Allison Williams) to stay with her easygoing parents Missy and Dean (Catherine Keener, Bradley Whitford), and to meet their upper middle-class friends. Within this mostly white environment, Chris endures a series of uncomfortable interactions from whites who are trying to connect with him on an intimate level but come across as condescending (“I would have voted for Obama a third time if I could!” or “What is your take on the black experience in the new millennium?”). There are also blacks who act suspiciously servile and meek. As the film progresses, the encounters become more uncomfortable until Chris decides that something is seriously wrong and wants
to leave the house before the visit has officially ended. From that point, the film takes an inventive turn at psychological horror. The scenes of Chris at the home of his girlfriend’s parents are intercut with moments of humor in the form of Chris’ TSA friend Rod (played with high-energy by Chicago comedian Milton “Lil Rel” Howery). Rod worries for Chris’s safety throughout the trip to Rose’s parents’ estate, crediting his work for the TSA with his sixth sense about such matters. I believe part of the appeal of “Get Out” for many viewers is the way it uses the trappings of a typical horror movie to tell a story that is very familiar to many African-Americans — the ubiquitous conversation with white people who believe themselves to be enlightened about racial matters, but still find ways to courtesy to racial stereotypes. Chris’s worries about being around “too many white people” is another ubiquitous concern shared by many blacks, especially those who have climbed up to elite status. This deeply rooted apprehension is rarely explored in mainstream films. Part of the controversy surrounding the film centers on the depiction of the white characters. Some critics of the film argue that its portrayal of whites as clueless, closet racists at best and potential cult participants at worst reeks of reverse racism.
My response to this is: That’s the nature of satire. How can a filmmaker shine a light on an important subject without depicting it in its most extreme form?
First-time writer-director Jordan Peele, of the acclaimed comedy duo “Key & Peele” shows a keen eye for horror in the film. There is a scene where Chris is hypnotized by Rose’s psychologist mother to “cure” him of his smoking habit. The scene marvelously mixes slow foreboding with a surprisingly assured visual flare. The moment when Chris finds himself descended into the “sunken place” of his own subconscious is a wonderfully effective visual effect. It gives the film an otherworldly creepiness that belies the film’s minuscule budget. The film is not without its flaws. Howery’s shtick goes on a bit too long and is not always as funny as it strives to be. Other issues include the film’s overly happy ending, which has all the makings of the last-second studio change that it was (the original ending would have been much darker). There’s also that unfortunate moment where a major revelation is made when a character finds photos in a closet at a suspiciously convenient time. Nevertheless, “Get Out” is a solid effort and one of the first horror films in recent memory to look at race relations as they stand in post-Obama America. This movie should spark discussion for months to come. CONTACT: cherrycoke_duck@yahoo.com

In a nutshell, after Chance announced he was pledging to donate a million dollars to Chicago Public Schools and also told Governor Bruce Rauner to “do his job,” Chance was taken to task by Mitchell because of his ongoing child support court case. Well, a lot of young people and some old ones, too, myself included, took offense at the column. Especially when a
column starts off with, “I don’t want to go hard ...” and then proceeds to do just that. There are a variety of reasons why people go to child support court. With so many black children being born out of wedlock, child support court establishes a legal precedence for paternity, the amount of money that a child is entitled to cover food, clothing and shelter. Other things like education costs, medical/ dental, daycare or extracurricular activities are not currently a necessary part of it. However, since Chance’s baby mama didn’t come to Mitchell lamenting her child support fight, one has to cast a wary eye on why

Cook County State’s Attorney visits West Side Kim Foxx addressed bail reform, gun laws with local lawmakers during forum
By LEE EDWARDS & MICHAEL ROMAIN Austin Weekly News
Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx was on the West Side last week for a forum on public safety and criminal justice hosted by Cook County Commissioner Richard Boykin. The event, held March 11 at Hope Community Church, 5900 W. Iowa Ave. in Austin, comes in the wake of a new bond reform initiative that Foxx announced earlier this month. According to a statement released by Foxx’s office on March 1, the State’s Attorney will “begin proactively supporting agreed motions requesting I-Bonds in cases for defendants who have been detained in Cook County for lengthy periods of time due to their inability to pay a bond of $1,000 or less.” Kim Foxx Unlike a D-Bond, which requires defendants to pay 10 percent on the bond amounts place where independent investigations will in order to go free, an I-Bond allows defen- be conducted in the future to ensure that dedants to be released on their own recogni- cisions for prosecutions are based on deliberate and thorough information. zance.
