No budget cuts for 11 Austin schools

Despite larger enrollment declines than expected, those schools won’t get less revenue By XUEER ZHANG AustinTalks

More than half of Austin’s public schools had fewer students enroll than expected, but none will see their budgets cut, while other schools that enrolled more students than was projected will get more funding, according to Chicago Public Schools. “We have heard from so many of you that stability for planning is crucial to having the strongest possible school year,” CPS CEO Forrest Claypool told principals in an email last month. “As a result, schools that experienced enrollment declines beyond initial projections will be held harmless this year and continue to operate with the budgets you received in July,” he said in the email. CPS released the adjusted school-by-school budget last week based on the classroom attendance head count taken Sept. 18 – the 10th day of school – noting schools that did not meet the projected enrollment could have lost another $35 million if the district had made the same cuts as last year. The state’s largest school district has already cut $43 million for the 2017-2018 school See AUSTIN SCHOOLS on page 6

County cans soda tax The county board voted 15-1 to repeal the unpopular measure By MICHAEL ROMAIN Editor

The Cook County Board of Commissioners voted 15-1 on Oct. 11 to repeal the deeply unpopular sweetened beverage tax, which tacked on an additional penny per ounce onto certain sugary drinks. The roll back goes into effect on Dec. 1. The tax was designed to help fill a $1.8 billion hole in the county’s budget. The office of Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle — who was the tie-breaking vote in favor of the tax back when it passed the board in November 2016 — estimated that the tax could generate $200 million a year in revenue. Preckwinkle, and other supporters of the tax, also argued that the measure could be a boon to the health of county residents by discouraging the consumption of drinks that have are correlated with obesity and other health problems. On Oct. 10, after she realized that there were enough votes to overwhelmingly repeal the tax, Preckwinkle issued a statement expressing her disappointment with the outcome.

“As I outlined last week, it is up to the commissioners to choose our direction on revenue, and I respect their authority to do so,” she stated. “Now, together, we must chart a new course toward the eighth consecutive balanced budget of my tenure as board president.” In a joint statement issued on Tuesday, the Illinois Public Health Institute and the Illinois Alliance to Prevent Obesity decried the repeal measure as a “bad deal for county residents as taxpayers will continue to cover the rising costs of treating the chronic diseases caused by drinking too many sugary beverages while also seeing cuts to healthcare services for our most vulnerable communities.” But critics of the sweetened beverage tax described it as a regressive tax that would disproportionately affect lower income residents while hurting county businesses. Cook County Commissioner Richard Boykin (1st), whose district includes Bellwood, Broadview and Maywood, expressed his approval for the repeal vote in a statement released on Oct. 11. Boykin, who voted against the tax last year, was among the most vocal supporters of repeal. “The people have spoken and I am glad that my colleagues listened to their voices by repealing this regressive tax that was bad for families and bad for the business community,” he said.

Austin Weekly News, October 18, 2017

AUSTIN SCHOOLS A dip, but no cuts from page 1 year due to a projected loss of about 8,000 students across the city, which has caused a significant loss of resources to Austin neighborhood schools, AustinTalks previously reported. While schools whose enrollment falls below expectation can proceed with July’s budget, those that enrolled more than projected will get an additional $19.6 million based on the current funding formula, CPS officials say. This is the second time in four years that CPS has decided not to take away money from schools with less-than-expected enrollment, noted Dwayne Truss, a longtime Austin resident and education advocate. “The adjustment is just not good for students because they are basically two months into the school year,” Truss said, adding schools that didn’t meet the projections had to face another round of cuts and loss of teachers over the past two years. “All of a sudden they had to experience upheaval as schools had to shift resources and staff around,” Truss said. In Austin, 11 out of 17 neighborhood schools enrolled fewer students than July’s projection and are being spared from more than $606,000 in additional cuts, while six others will receive a total of about $417,000 for the 2017-2018 school year. Ellington and Spencer each has more than 80 students short of projection, and would have lost $126,779 and $149,981 respectively if not held harmless. Leslie and Sayre each has enrolled about 30 students more than projected, and will respectively receive $165,786 and $69,253 extra funds based on the 10th-day attendance head count and other factors. Others that enrolled more than expected are John Hay, with $18,263 additional funding, Lovett at $83,525, GR Clark Elementary at $19,561 and Howe at $61,489. Overall, Austin schools saw lower actual enrollment compared to other parts of the city. Still, the majority of Austin schools are seeing budget reductions compared to last year after adjustments, with Douglass HS topping the list with nearly a 20 percent cut in funding and more than a 40 percent decline in the number of students. There is concern Douglass could be targeted for closure next year when the five-year moratorium CPS put in place in 2013 expires. The district recently announced the rules it will consider in making the decision to phase schools out or merge schools, the Chicago Sun-Times reported. “There’s no reason to be relieved,” said longtime Austin resident Brandon Johnson, an organizer at the Chicago Teachers Union. “Because they’re still cuts, and they’re services that continue to be denied in our community.” The enrollment drop in Austin neighborhood schools is caused by a number of factors, Truss said, citing problems such as lack of affordable housing, crime and the expansion of charter schools. Although deeper cuts were avoided this year, there’s still good reason for Austin schools to be “crossing fingers,” he said. “There’s still a question about whether the CPS budget is truly balanced,” Truss said, noting the “hold harmless” adjustment as well as the $19 million in extra funds comes from a bill signed by Gov. Bruce Rauner just a week before classes began. “The injection of the additional tax dollars from the state into the CPS has helped CPS at the bottom line,” he said. But “it still doesn’t have the stability within our schools.” The approved bill contains $150 million more in funding than the initial Senate Bill 1, which was vetoed in early August by Rauner, who called it “a bailout of CPS.” The bill the governor later signed will inject about $450 million more funding into CPS compared to last year. This should hopefully prevent the mid-year cuts that schools faced last year because of the budget crisis, Truss said. CONTACT: austintalks.org@gmail.com

Lifelong Austin resident Jessica LaShawn was walking with two of her teenage students by her home near North and Central avenues on a recent Saturday when they heard the sound of gun fire. She was terrified; the teens with her reacted differently. “The kids were just like, ‘Oh, they shooting,’ and just kept on their Instagram and kept walking,” LaShawn said. “They are used to this,” she told a panel of West Side elected officials and police officers who turned out for a meeting earlier this month to discuss gun violence. More than 100 people attended the meeting held at the Northwest Austin Council’s office at 5730 W. Division St. LaShawn – who founded the Austin-based Mogul Academy, which provides financial education to West Side teens and young adults – said gun violence has “increased tremendously” over the past decade in her community. “We’ve had more shootings than we ever

had before,” she said in an interview later. She’s worried about young people in Austin who have to live in a community with so many shootings and face being “constantly labelled as at risk from a young age.” From Jan. 1 to Oct. 5, 382 shootings have been recorded, leaving 66 dead and 315 wounded, according to data released by Cook County Commissioner Richard Boykin’s office. That’s far more shootings than in Englewood, the Chicago community area most impacted by gun violence after Austin; in Englewood, 43 people have died, and 168 have been wounded. Citywide, there have been 538 homicides and about 2,900 shootings. That’s an average of 60 people killed per month. “The reason why we gather tonight is because gun violence has been a major issue in this community and throughout the city of Chicago for way too long,” Boykin said. “We will help to clean up this neighborhood and make this neighborhood safer,” he said, adding he’s been working with other West Side elected officials, law enforcement and local gun violence prevention organizations to reduce shootings. As national debate over gun ownership has intensified in the wake of the Las Vegas shooting, guns flowing from neighboring states into Illinois, Chicago and eventually the West Side, have become a “public health problem,” said state Rep. Camille Lilly. “Many of the laws that we are dealing with related to guns are causing stress and issues

with the citizens,” Lilly said. The Illinois Legislative Black Caucus is pushing for legislation that would make the restrictions on guns more stringent, Lilly said. That includes bills that would require chips be inserted into guns and serial numbers put on ammunition, which would make weapons easier to trace if they were used to commit a crime after being transported across state borders. “The illegal trafficking of guns into Illinois is a problem,” she said. “All of these efforts will allow us to know who purchase the gun and where the gun was purchased from.” The legislation, along with stronger background checks and pre-ownership procedures, faces opposition at both the federal and state levels, Lilly said. “It’s not popular legislation, and it’s going to be difficult,” she said. She called on community members to become more organized – just as organized as the National Rifle Association. The only way to really counter those against gun control is for people to use their voting power, said U.S. Congressman Danny K. Davis. “The problem needs to be solved by all of us together.” Meanwhile, West Side officers say they are enhancing collaboration at the city and county levels – and upgrading technology. Earlier this year, the 15th District launched its so-called strategic deployment center, where officers can receive signals

from street monitors that detect gunshots and react more quickly, District Commander Dwayne Betts said. The district has seen fatal shootings drop by 20 percent, Betts said, but they’re still too many shootings. The community needs to get more involved when it comes to solving crimes in the neighborhoods, said Marlon Parks, deputy chief of patrol for the Cook County Sheriff ’s Department. “A lot of times the community knows so much more information than we could ever get,” said Parks, who’s been working with the local police officers in Austin the last four months as part of a county initiative to send resources to areas needing more law enforcement assistance. Representatives from violence prevention groups that work in Austin stressed the importance of having more programs for the youths and shared what they’ve been doing to reduce shootings on the West Side. While there’s been some progress, some cast doubts about whether the approach elected officials in Austin are taking to address shootings has been effective. Bertha Purnell, whose 28-year-old son Maurice Purnell was shot to death on Laramie and Division in late June, said she’s still waiting for the case to be solved. “I need justice for my son,” she said. “We need some prevention for these other children.” CONTACT: austintalks.org@gmail.com

The amazing arrogance of white supremacy

he dog whistle language of racism in America can no longer be categorized as a dog whistle. It doesn’t need decoding or interpreting anymore, it’s clear and out in the open. I used to think that white privilege itself was so toxic that it blinded those who benefited from it. I thought that they just didn’t get it. I thought the racial divide had been so one sided for so long that they were oblivious to America’s racial caste system that slanted favorably toward whites. I’m now convinced that they’re not blind, the racial disparities are much too glaring for them not to see them. White Privilege is arrogant! Arrogant White Privilege still refuses to admit that racism has left deep scars in this country and that African-Americans have endured the cruelest form of oppression for generations. Some of the assimilationist behaviors that they expect from blacks are egregious and downright ruthless. Here are just a few: 1. Stand, no matter what, during a National Anthem that deifies a country that enslaved our ancestors for over 250 years 2. Ignore the reality that 250 years of free black labor built this country and fortified generational wealth for white people. Yet self-righteous America has still not repented for its barbaric behavior. 3. Ignore the fact that the black race is the only race to ever be enslaved on American soil. 4. Ignore how African-American veterans were denied many of the benefits of the GI Bill after World War II. Banks wouldn’t make loans for houses to veterans in black neighborhoods 5. Ignore the fact that our fore parents fought and died for this country. Nevertheless, because of their military service, black veterans were seen as a particular threat to Jim Crow and racial subordination. Thousands of black veterans were assaulted, threatened, abused or lynched following military service. 6. The government and the media calls the terrible crime that occurred in Las

Vegas the deadliest massacre in modern American history. The truth is the key word is “modern.” America basically expects blacks to have selective amnesia and forget a very horrific and tragic period in our history: Three-hundred people died in Tulsa, Okla., in 1921 between May 31 and June 1, when whites torched the area’s AfricanAmerican neighborhoods, driving out victims fleeing showers of bullets from machine guns welded by whites. The damage of systemic racism has been diabolical and visible in so many aspects of society, and yet, AfricanAmericans have continued to fight for full citizenship and dignity. It’s infuriating to me that so many whites still expect African-Americans who have been treated as sub-human and as second class citizens to have a love affair with the American flag. Who do you think you are, to demand that we blindly celebrate the oppression of white supremacists? It’s completely disingenuous and racist for white America to say that blacks not standing during the anthem are being unpatriotic. African-Americans have been the most patriotic citizens in these “yet to be United States of America.” We fought for and stood up for America, when America has continuously not stood up for us and turned its back on us. It’s shameful that the abolition of slavery, the right to vote, and the end of legal segregation only came about after blacks rebelled and so many white lives were being jeopardized by the bloodshed of the civil war. On the day that our government begins working to make the ideals of Americanism honored for all Americans, that’s when those who are courageous enough to call out the hypocrisy of white patriotism will finally be able to believe in the country the way the privileged have always been able to do so. #TakeAKnee

Will the soda tax repeal be the start of a new day?

ing dong, the tax is dead, the soda pop tax, the pop tax is dead. Ding dong the wicked tax is dead! Like the Munchkins from The Wizard of Oz, I was singing the preceding tune as I saw where 15 of the Cook County commissioners voted to repeal the tax. The two who continued to stand in support of it were: Jerry ‘The Iceman’ Butler who plans on retiring at the end of his term and Larry Suffredin, an Evanston Democrat. Suffredin had the gall to write an op-ed piece in the Chicago Tribune where he defended the tax, claiming that it only affected a small number of people. Yet the projected revenue from the tax on that small number was enough to cover a $200 million budget shortfall. I guess Suffredin still believes the voters are stupid, and I hope his constituents, come next election, vote for a new commissioner. The pop tax was unpopular for a variety of reasons. For me, it was the absolutely insulting commercials claiming that the pop industry was targeting kids. One commercial in particular that grated my nerves was the grandmother who was raising five grandkids and she laments that the soda companies know kids love soda and how the pop tax will help in the fight against childhood obesity as she professes to protect her kids and grandkids. Of course she fails to mention that LINK card holders don’t pay the tax, thus they will continue to purchase such products like they’ve always done. Nor does she address the issue that, for the most part, it is adults who supply the pop that the kids drink. Following the repeal, Queen Sugar Preck-

wrinkle was quick to threaten to cut services in both the county health care system and the judicial system. The threat of what will happen is what our elected officials love to do as they attempt to spread panic in order to get folks to stand behind them. Perhaps the trend of bringing some services to the community may mean that for cost-saving purposes, people will have to travel within the county to get it. Government cannot always offer convenience when that convenience comes at the expense of constantly increasing taxes. Or how many who live in DuPage, Lake and Will County use the Cook County Services because of those convenient locations. Lastly, it would be interesting to know if the “sanctuary city policy” aspect of Chicago and many of the surrounding suburbs has helped to increase the number of illegal aliens who utilize the free services of the health care system. When it comes to the judicial system, there are areas that can be leaner. When and where can technology cut costs? And what other revenue sources are there for the county to utilize? Perhaps we need to again address the idea of a casino in Chicago where some of the revenue goes to the county? I wonder if voter interest in what our elected officials are doing will now be elevated? Far too often, the “I don’t care” attitude of the public has allowed legislation that harms the common good. The March 2018 primary will tell if voters are tired of what the politicians are doing. Especially if many of the long-term incumbents lose.
