STILL MARCHING FOR JUSTICE: Rev. Jesse Jackson leads a march from Marquette Park on Aug. 6 to commemorate the Aug. 5, 1966 march from Marquette Park led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Fifty years ago, Jackson recalled, “I got hit in the shoulder with a bottle.”

Remembering King in Chicago – 50 years later By MICHAEL ROMAIN Editor

On Aug. 5, 1966, Dr. Martin Luther King, along with several hundred other marchers, descended onto Marquette Park on the city’s

South Side for a demonstration designed to help stamp out Chicago’s galling racism and discrimination. The marchers’ logistical goal was to part the sea of Italian and Polish and German humanity on their way to a real estate office

in the neighborhood. Despite a heavy police escort, however, not many demonstrators would make it. As soon as the marchers arrived at Marquette Park, writes Rev. Jesse Jackson in a recent column published in the Chicago

Tribune, “We were confronted by more than 4,000 angry whites, hurling bricks, beer bottles, firecrackers, knives and the N-word. Some let loose from up in the trees. The air See MARQUETTE MARCH on page 4

MARQUETTE MARCH A non-violent act from page 1 was so thick with projectiles flying every which way it was a miracle that Dr. King was only hit by one rock.” Nancy Jefferson, a longtime West Side activist, told the editors of The Chicago Freedom Movement: Martin Luther King Jr. and the Civil Rights Activism in the North (2015) that she “was right there when Dr. King was hit.” “Having come from the South — I grew up in TenNANCY JEFFERSON nesse — I don’t Log-time West Side activist think we saw as much hatred out of Bull Connor and all of them as we saw in Marquette Park in Chicago,” Jefferson recalled. ‘ “Dr. King used to say to us, ‘The people are afraid of anything they don’t know,’” she said. “And he says, ‘People or things, conditions or housing or whatever it is that they don’t know, they are afraid of that.’ So we tried to demonstrate with the nonviolent attitude, with love.” On an overcast Friday exactly 50 years later, Jackson and some of his fellow marchers reconvened at Marquette Park to remember. They cut the ribbon on a permanent memorial that was recently installed in the park before heading across the street for a short ceremony. On Saturday, the marchers retread King’s footsteps. The event was planned and facilitated by the Inner-City Muslim Action Network (IMAN), a venerable community organization based in Marquette Park. The group has convened a fundraising committee for the installation of a much more comprehensive project in the park, which would include a ceramics studio and a Youth Policy and Leadership Fellowship Program.

A TIME TO REMEMBER: On Aug. 5, community leaders and civil rights activists, many of whom marched with Dr. King in 1966, cut the ribbon on a memorial in Marquette Park.

‘Black Lives’ picks up where King left off, says filmmaker

Seth McClellan, director of Chicago Freedom Movement documentary, compares past to present By MICHAEL ROMAIN Editor

An Oak Park filmmaker’s documentary on the Chicago Freedom Movement, which aired on WTTW Channel 11 last week in commemoration of the movement’s 50th anniversary, may be about a significant, if often overlooked, period in American history, but it’s director says it’s far from over. In fact, said Seth McClellan in a recent interview, that specific movement in the past was just prologue for today’s struggles against urban poverty and racial injustice. In January 1966, Martin Luther King Jr. announced plans for the movement, which included his decision to stay in an apartment in North Lawndale “to help eradicate a vicious system which seeks to further colonize thousands of Negroes within a slum environment,” the civil rights leader said at the time. “I shot the film about a decade ago and it aired on Channel 11 in 2009,” said McClellan, who teaches video production and film history at Triton College in suburban River Grove. “They wanted to broadcast it again, particularly since a lot of the struggles of the Freedom Movement continue to resonate, because we’re dealing with some of the same problems now.” According to Stanford’s King Institute Encyclopedia, planning on what’s often called King’s Chicago Campaign began during the summer of 1965, when a group of Chicago civil rights organizations asked the prominent minister to help them fight segregation in schools, housing and most workplaces in the city. Almost immediately, King confronted challenges that were different from the ones he’d encountered while successfully challenging the Jim Crow laws across his native South. The leaders confronted a unique urbanized form of racism that was much quieter and more sophisticated than the overt racism symbolized by Birmingham Public Safety Commissioner Eugene “Bull” Connor’s barking dogs and fire hoses. King noted at the time that “many whites who oppose open housing would deny that they are racists. They turn to sociological arguments … [without realizing] that criminal responses are environmental, not racial.”

McClellan said the struggle that King and other local activists started 50 years ago is now being waged by the diverse array of activists and organizers affiliated with the Black Lives Matter movement. “I think Black Lives Matter and people like Michelle Alexander (author of the popular book The New Jim Crow) are working on the same stuff that King was fighting 50 years ago,” McClellan said, adding that those thinkers and activists are much more engaged with how the myth and stigma of black criminality reinforce certain aspects of systemic racism. “They’re talking about the prison industrial complex as well as urban poverty,” he said. For McClellan, today’s era of civil rights activism demonstrates one of his film’s central messages. King’s Chicago period, he said, is often considered by observers a failure in relation to his overwhelmingly successful Southern campaign despite the Freedom Movement’s widely recognized influence in the passage of the federal Fair Housing Act of 1968, which outlawed discriminatory real estate practices and created federal agencies to ensure that the law was enforced. What gets lost in the schoolbook romanticism of the Civil Rights Movement, McClellan said, is how much time and hard work by ordinary people predated it. The cinematic successes, he said, were just climaxes to a centuries-long struggle. But that was then, the filmmaker argues. The new civil rights struggle, placed squarely in the country’s crime-ridden urban ghettos, is just beginning. “I made the film because nobody had ever tried to put this story into a coherent documentary,” said McClellan. “We like stories that have a certain structure and have clear bad guys and good guys — and where somebody wins at the end. That was very much the Southern story. Chicago, however, is the beginning of something new. These are hard problems. They’re massive, massive problems even though you see people like our current Republican nominee saying he’s going to fix things in a minute. That’s not how things work.” CONTACT: michael@austinweeklynews.com

Help teachers help your child

For most of the year, teachers are busy helping your children the best they know how. Whether it’s getting them excited about books or getting them excited about their futures, teachers work hard to educate children. Yet, they are capable of doing so much more, given the right help. That help comes from you. Giving your child the most enriching learning experience involves showing up, keeping your child’s teacher informed and staying informed yourself. Below are some of the most critical ways you can make that happen.

Understand school policies

Attendance is strong indicator of a child’s success in school. This makes sense. A child who is at school every day and on time has a greater chance of learning more, practicing more and being challenged more than a child who is not. Yet, many parents don’t struggle with keeping their child home a couple of Fridays a month or dropping their child off at school twenty minutes later than the start of the school day. When a child misses school, no matter if it is 15 minutes or 15 hours, they also miss instructional time, time when students debate important concepts and use critical thinking to understand vital information, information that can’t necessarily be explained on a homework sheet or from a friend’s notes. So make an effort this year to help your child be present and punctual. For assistance, consult the website Absences Add Up for great resources on improving your child’s attendance.

What warrants an out-ofschool suspension? What type of shoes is your child required to wear? These are questions in which you should have the answers before the school year starts. Different schools (Chicago Public Schools, charter, private) have different and varied rules. Complete homework every day. Always wear black shoes. The list goes on and on. And with so many rules, it can be easy to violate one of them. What is not easy are some of the consequences given when broken — detention, suspension, fines. Such consequences may lead to your child missing school and inevitably missing class time. This can cause your child to fall further and further behind. Therefore, identify your child’s school policies ahead of time, so you can prevent loss of learning for your child this school year.

Communicate learning differences If your child has learning differences or an individualized education plan (IEP), please be sure to make each of your child’s teachers aware. Often, parents believe that the school or former teacher will be responsible for sharing their child’s IEP accommodations and goals with current teachers. Although this is proper protocol, there are times when current teachers are not properly informed, due to late hiring or understaffing. Because your child’s education is ultimately your responsibility, you must see to it that teachers are fully aware of how your child should best be served. Whether it’s more time for tests or a quiet environment for independent work, letting teachers know this at the start of the school year may prevent your child from falling behind as the school year progresses.

Know your child’s grades Helping teachers help your child also means staying informed of your child’s academic progress. Do this by attending parent-teacher conferences and continually monitoring your child’s grades online. Most schools allow parents to view their child’s grades and attendance via the Internet, eliminating the excuse that your child doesn’t report school information to you. Most grade reporting systems even have alerts sent to you if your child fails or misses an assignment. Therefore, be sure to find the username and password to your school’s online grade reporting system, so that you may continually remain informed of your child’s academic progress. With Parent Portal at Chicago Public Schools and PowerSchool at most charter schools, you will find that it is easy to know your child’s grades for each and every assignment. If you are not knowledgeable of the online system your child’s school uses or lack the account information, simply phone your child’s school and inquire about how you may gain access. Continually monitoring your child’s grades allows you to prevent your child’s teacher from contacting you with failure warnings and notices. Remember, you are ultimately responsible for the educational well-being of your child. So play a role in your child’s schooling by showing up and keeping communication constant with your child’s teachers. Then pleasurably watch the differences these changes make.

The price of criminality

ike the majority of people in Chicago, I watched with trepidation the recently released video of Paul O’Neal’s encounter with the police. Right now Laquan McDonald’s death at the hands of Chicago police is my litmus test. So my worry was — would it reveal worse or what? I had heard the news reports and knew of O’Neal’s alleged car theft. At age 18, driving a stolen car shouldn’t be a death sentence. However, attempting to run over cops with a car is an invitation to receive one. I am quite aware that my opinion on this is out of line with what many have been saying. Hindsight is always perfect. But while many will speak loudly on what the police “should have, would have, could have” done, I don’t see the same being said of Paul. Why? The criminal life in the 21st century is not what it was two decades ago. Cameras and digital video systems are capturing what was in the past mere hearsay about incidents. There is no doubt the driver of the black Jaguar evaded police, almost ran over one cop and then crashed into an oncoming squad car. And all because those who commit the crimes never want to face up to the reality of doing the time. There is also a reason why the western suburbs are the preferred sites for criminal elements to do their dirt. Unless you’re in the northern suburbs, black faces don’t look so out of place. O’Neal and his crew are alleged to have been caught on security cameras filling up their stolen vehicles’ tanks with stolen credit cards. A 17-year-old who was also in the car and remains unnamed, was arrested and charged with possession of a stolen vehicle. Note that he didn’t run and he also didn’t get a bullet in him. That 17-year-old should not only be charged with attempted murder of the cop but also in the

death of Paul O’Neal. There is something very sick and wrong when young people still in their teens are committing such egregious acts. It’s as if we are producing children with doctorate degrees in criminality while they lack education in more worthwhile pursuits. At age 18, O’Neal was born just prior to this new millennium. He has grown up in a computer generation and I sure would love to read and hear about all of the “impoverished circumstances” that led him to a life of crime. You know, how there was no food in the house and he wore the same pair of shoes three sizes too large so his feet could grow into them. How his clothes only came from a second-hand store while the lights and gas to his house were off more than on. How his stealing cars was his only option and he did so reluctantly. Well, we know that ain’t gonna happen. What is true is that somewhere in Bolingbrook lives an individual whose hardearned money, in the form of a Jaguar, was stolen by someone who didn’t give a damn. Somewhere in Bolingbrook, that individual will be without his/her car, and have to deal with an insurance company that may or may not pay off what the car is worth. Somewhere in Bolingbrook, there is the “other victim” who may or may not be upset that the person purported to have stolen his or her vehicle lies dead. Many of us who have been the victim of such crimes don’t lament when the perps suffer from their own criminality. As the O’Neal family files a civil rights lawsuit because of Paul’s death, I hope the owner of the Jaguar sues the estate of Paul O’Neal. Until those who perpetrate the carnage learn there is always a price to pay, we will continue to have mayhem.

Nike basketball event unites South and West Sides The Chi-League Classic, sponsored by the famous shoe company, also brought police and youth together By LEE EDWARDS Contributing Reporter

The 2016 Chi-League Classic served as the most recent reminder that basketball can unify an entire city based on the love of the game. Sponsored by Nike, the Chi-League Classic, which was held between July 30 and July 31, is the culminating event of the nine-week summer Pro Am Basketball Association. In a statement, Nike expressed its serious commitment toward inspiring and enabling Chicago’s basketball players to maximize their potential on and off the court. “We will always be there connecting fans to memorable experiences like Chi-League Classic, as well as elite players who shaped the game like Michael Jordan, and those who are thrilling us today like LeBron James, Jabari Parker, Kyrie Irving, Elena Delle Donne, Paul George, Skylar Diggins and more.” Chicago Police Department officers from multiple districts across the city’s South and West Sides bussed in dozens of young men and women to participate in the weekend basketball festival held at Whitney M. Young Magnet High School. Event organizers provided clinics, open courts, a Rising Stars Game for younger players, and high school showcase games for both girls and boys. CPD officer Zack Ramirez experienced Chi-League for the first time this summer as he and his partner, Officer Will Martinez, chaperoned a group of youths from within the Austin community on the second day of the festivities. Ramirez said he’s previously organized basketball games

Ramirez said youths engaging with officers at Chi-League can help change perceptions for both groups. “We enjoy playing basketball and to see us out there with them shows that we are human, we are one of you guys, and just because we wear the blue uniform it doesn’t mean that we’re not people,” said Ramirez. Whitney Young Boys Basketball head coach Tyrone Slaughter said that, while its common place for South and West Side residents to seldom venture out of their communities, events like Chi-League does a great job bringing people together. “I think we’re all the same, we just happened to be bordered by different lines,” said Slaughter, who has won several IHSA state championships. “It’s good for people to come to the west side and experience our great hospitality.” Urban Prep Bronzeville incoming senior Tyler Jarmon called off work to take part in Chi-League. He described seeing the assembly of youth basketball enthusiasts as “exciting”. He said there should be more events on the scale of Chi-League with other focuses besides basketball. He plans on attending the University of Michigan and hopes to be a restaurateur if his dream of playing in the NBA does not pan out. “You have people of all different ages coming out to play; it’s just amazing to see all of these people come out to one event in Chicago,” said Jarmon. “This brings the community together and it’s not just a funeral or something happening for everyone to come together.” CONTACT: leeme117@gmail.com

‘This could’ve been my church,’ says pastor of Austin shooting By MICHAEL ROMAIN Staff Reporter

“No one saw this coming,” said Rev. Kenneth Giles during an Aug. 3 press conference outside of the Second Mount Olive Missionary Baptist Church, 5729 W. Chicago Ave., in Austin. The previous Sunday, the church was the unlikely site of what the Rev. Ira Acree, pastor of the Greater St. John Bible Church in Austin, called an “unfathomable and “unacceptable act.” Cook County Commissioner Richard Boykin (1st), who convened the press conference with Giles’s blessings, said the tragedy “underscores the serious need for resources” to address mental health challenges and gun violence. On July 31, as she was leaving an afternoon service at the Chicago Ave. church, Trinyce L. Sanders-Wilson, 40, was shot to death by Roshaun D. Wilson, 38, who afterwards fatally shot himself. Giles, the church’s pastor, said the married couple from suburban Broadview may have been estranged at the time. They were both longtime members of the church, as were both of their families. Sanders-Wilson, the pastor said, sang in the young adult choir and helped in the kitchen during church meals. She had five children. “I was inside when I heard shots fired,”

Giles said of the shooting. “I heard screaming and rushed out. It was 20 minutes after service had ended.” One resident who lives a block away from the church, near Iowa and Massasoit, said when he heard the shots, he walked down to Chicago Ave. and saw the victims on the ground. “It’s sad,” said the man, who simply goes by Mr. Marvin. “It’s truly sad. This block is one of the quietist blocks in the community.” Marvin said a big reason for the sense of tranquility is Mount Olive, which he said has been an anchoring presence in the neighborhood for as long as he can remember. Founded in 1956 by Rev. James Bass, the church moved to its current location on Chicago Ave. in 1980, according to a history on the church’s website. Giles, who has pastored the church since 2002, has presided over numerous social service programs — including a clothing distribution ministry and annual Christmas basket and gift program. In 2004, the church was the Austin host site for the city’s Summer Nutrition Enrichment Program. “A line has been crossed when a person shoots someone coming out of the house of God,” said Acree, who added that the “sanctity and sanctuary of the church was violated.” “This could’ve been my church,” he said. Giles said he wasn’t familiar with Wilson’s mental history and said that the man had

been to the church within a month of the shooting. “As far as I’m concerned, they’re both victims,” said Giles. “The brother loved his family. He loved his children.” Giles said he’s been overwhelmed “with the show of love demonstrated toward this church during this time” and that his main focus, in the days since the tragedy, has been to be “a shepherd to this community and to this family.”

Then, just before walking into his church to convene a prayer vigil for family and community members, Giles began reciting some of the words of old hymns and scriptures that he said will be dispatched to comfort his flock. “Although there may be weeping for the night, joy will come in the morning,” went one. “By and by, we’ll understand it better by and by,” went another.

THE ONLY ONE: Ron Lofton, who owns the only black-owned McDonald’s restaurants on the West Side, says some of the challenges to ownership include the city’s new minimum wage hike.

W. Side’s only black McDonald’s operator lends business insight Ron Lofton, member of black operators’ organization, says higher minimum wage has hit his bottom line By WENDELL HUTSON Contributing Reporter

The Black McDonald’s Operators Association sponsored its 10th annual Inspiration Celebration Gospel tour last week, and this week will give away free school supplies on the West Side. The 14-member BMOA, which consists of black franchise owners in Chicago and Northwest Indiana, includes Ron Lofton as the only member with West Side restaurants. His restaurants are located at 3200 W. Roosevelt Road, 5015 W. Madison St., 23 N. Western Ave., and 5133 W. Chicago Ave. And according to Lofton, he is looking into the possibility of opening a fifth McDonald’s restaurant at Ogden Avenue and Roosevelt Road. As the sole black McDonald’s owner on the West Side, Lofton explained that there are more opportunities on the South Side than the West Side for potential franchise owners. “The South Side is a (larger) geographical area than the West Side,” said Lofton. “It takes a lot to support a McDonald’s so you can’t oversaturate one area.” Beyond competition from other restaurants, Lofton said another challenge he is having as a business owner is the city’s rising minimum wage, which is currently $10.50 per hour. “The increase in minimum wage has not affected my business per say, but it has affected my bottom line tremendously,” added

Lofton. “It’s a concern I have going forward.” One way Lofton said he has balanced his costs is by reducing employee hours and days. “I want to avoid laying off anyone, but I have to be able to stay in business and higher wages makes it difficult for small business owners like myself,” said Lofton. “I hire convicted felons and ex-drug offenders because I am true believer in helping ‘my brothers and sisters’ off the street.” BMOA plans to distribute 45,000 school supplies from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday at Lofton’s Roosevelt Road restaurant. The school supply giveaway follows a free concert BMOA sponsored Aug. 4 at the House of Hope on the Far South Side. The sold out concert at the 25,000-seat venue featured gospel singers Dorinda Clark-Cole, Donald Lawrence, DeWAyne Woods, Ricky Dillard, and Chicago’s Rev. Charles Jenkins, pastor of Fellowship Chicago. The concert was an opportunity to thank customers for their years of support, said Derrick Taylor, president of BMOA. “It’s our way of giving back to the community and to let them know we appreciate their business,” said Taylor, who owns seven South Side McDonald’s restaurants, the most among any local, black franchise owner. “Last Thanksgiving we gave away turkeys on the West Side and we hope to do more events on the West Side if the facilities we need are available.” CONTACT: wreporter@yahoo.com

Gardening with Gabby: Learning as we grow

Hello, this is Gabby. I’m back again! I just want to share that the garden has been doing well and new changes have occurred. The zucchini and Swiss chard are growing. The bell peppers are still developing. The collard green and Brussel sprouts are struggling a little bit. The collard greens have holes in the leaves and the Brussel sprouts appear to have some type of fungus. We have contacted a Master Gardner through the Cook County Farm Bureau and the University of Illinois Extension Horticulture Program to come out to the garden and help us to find a way to get rid of the fungus and prevent bugs from eating the produce. The garden brings peace to our community. We see a lot of violence in everyday life. It is not alright, so our work in this garden brings peace because people just walk past and say, “This is so pretty!” -Gabby, Garden Leader

The 2016-2017 youth garden in Austin has been very productive and off to a great start, with minor challenges to a few of our produce. Students have the opportunity to learn valuable skills to use as a platform to bring awareness to the community by building community through the garden. Students have expressed concern about the recent gun violence in the Austin neighborhood. Our students have been working to help maintain the garden and are proactive in noticing the changes within the garden, as you’ll see in the comments from our 11-year-old blogger, Gabby, and her friend Markell, below. You can read more about the garden, which is part of Mercy Housing Lakefront’s summer youth program, in our earlier article at this link. www.austinweeklynews.com/Community/Blogs/6-29-2016/Gardening-withGabby:-Welcome-to-Our-Garden/ -Dominique Davis, Resident Services Manager, Mercy Housing Lakefront

What I like about the garden is that the garden is growing a lot and we have some very hard workers. I just want everybody to keep working hard. We are growing fruits and vegetables, which we sell by the pound to people within our community to give them fresh fruit and vegetables. We are planning to have our ﬁrst community garden market within the next two weeks. -Markell, Co-Garden Leader
