“For me, what matters is really trying to be an inspiration for others so that if they see someone eating and living, right, they then can say, ‘Oh, you know what, I'm gonna stop smoking cigarettes,’ or, it could be anything that leads someone else to make a change in their life,” MC Lyte told the Informer in a WIN-TV interview. “It doesn't have to be the identical thing that someone has changed, but just the idea that they were able to to change the trajectory of their lives by simply changing one element of it.
“I'm interested in things that matter,” the artist emphasized.
Celebrating women in Hip Hop certainly matters to MC Lyte.
“I think celebration means to hold someone high, right? It also means to enjoy oneself,” Lyte said. “Especially when it comes to women in hip hop, we get such the wrong end of the stick and a lot of times we're pushing, pushing, pushing. And it's not until others join in that push that we're able to break through these glass ceilings and achieve things that have never been achieved before and blaze new trails. And so this in itself, this celebration allows people to come and celebrate with us.”
In curating this féte, learning from last year’s packed show, MC Lyte said she wanted to ensure that this year audiences witness full sets of the featured artists. The dynamite lineup includes: Rapsody, Kash Doll, Bahamadia, Mama Sol and the concert curator herself.
“Last year was fantastic. We had everybody from the rafters representing all corners of the United States of America. And everybody had a sliver of time because there were just so many of us. As a matter of fact, I was scheduled to perform and it didn't happen because time was running short,” she explained. “This year, we decided to scale back on the number of women so that all of us really have a chance to thoroughly get the crowd engaged, and to have a good time with everyone, and have it be a little bit more focused and streamlined.”
Finding Inspiration In Stories Andartists
As a pioneering artist in hip hop, Lyte has broken barriers, opened doors and offered opportunities for others. She’s also been inspired by others.
Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Just days after the passing of Tina Turner, Lyte said the “Queen of Rock’s,” music and learning about her life, particularly after the 1993 film “What’s Love Got to Do with It,” was certainly an inspiration to her career.
“I remember, ‘Private Dancer,’ that it was a little sad. The story that she was telling with those words, it really touched on the sadness of what someone else was going through, which to me, I'm all about the story,” MC Lyte said before adding other icons who she’s loved. “You know, I'm all about Carole King, when she's creating a story. Sheila E ‘The Glamorous Life,’ like she wants to live ‘the glamorous life,’ and she finds out that it's not all that she thought it would be.’”
And Lyte didn’t forget to add the emcees who were instrumental in getting her interested in the game.
“Salt-N-Pepa, Sha-Rock. Roxanne Shanté, The Sequence. Sweet Tee, Spark D, everybody that was doing it, that I could hear. And then of course, the guys Run DMC, LL Cool J, Rakim and on,” she said.
With Hip Hop’s 50th anniversary underway, MC Lyte is gearing up for other celebrations.
“It's just a lot and I'm very, very grateful for it all, and grateful to have a team of folks that can really strategize it out,” Lyte said. “So I'm gonna be showing up all over the place.”
In addition, she’s part of a Netflix documentary examining women in music.
The multitalented artist emphasized that now is an ideal time for people to tap into their ambitions.
“This is a really great time for those who are ready to live in their purpose,” MC Lyte said. “And don't delay whatever it is that you have in your heart to do. Get out there and make it happen.” WI
TALBERT from Page 1 scribed the committee as a “melting pot” and a “really tight unit” bonded by both the park’s cause and a dedication to the community more broadly.
Then last year, neighbors learned that the developer planned to construct an 18-unit residential building on the lot, eliminating the green space entirely and making no promises about affordability.
The neighborhood association— whose members come from about 70 households on Talbert Terrace, Dexter Terrace and Talbert Street—mobilized for one more fight.
“We sort of put it out to the whole association, [asking] who wanted to be involved,” Hilliard, 68, said. “And they stepped up.”
The Ad Hoc Committee
A group of neighbors volunteered to help and quickly realized that their first task was to get organized. They began compiling all documents related to the green space, legally known as “Lot 1103 in Square 5869,” into a shared folder. That included everything from email correspondence with District officials to historic information, like the 1977 deed to the property. The Anacostia Homeowners and Residents Association had originally won the deed in a racial discrimination lawsuit against the developer, who owned many nearby properties.
In February, a handful of people, including Hilliard, began meeting weekly to strategize. Within the neighborhood association, the volunteers spending hundreds of hours on research and outreach became known as “the ad hoc committee.”
“Every email we send out, five different hands go up—and they’re not always the same hands,” said CJ Brandmeier, who chairs the ad hoc committee. “Everyone’s pitching in with what they’re good at.”
“Some people might think that this is a small thing. It's just a little, small lot,” Johnson said. “But it means so much because it's part of the legacy of this community. And these folks on this committee have been really diligent in trying to do everything they can.”
In addition to organizing neighborhood events in support of the park space, such as a cleanup and rally in April, and a BBQ in May, the committee mobilized around what Brandmeier described as three “missions.” The tri-pronged strategy included reaching out to media outlets, connecting with political leaders and researching the legalities of the lot’s sale.
As part of that third mission, Brandmeier and others began looking into Rupsha 2011 LLC and its owner, Mohammad Sikder. They found more than one red flag.
Sikder declined multiple requests for comment.
A History Of Cutting Corners
In June 2019, Sikder and another one of his development companies pleaded guilty in a federal court to crimes related to lead-based paint. Sikder’s company, District Properties LLC, had avoided oversight related to lead safety by falsely stating, in 25 permit applications, that buildings had been constructed after 1978 (the year the U.S. banned lead-based paint).
work,” she said. “I convened to let them know what’s available to them in terms of support, access to capital, and helping them get market access. Those are some of the old barriers to those being able to achieve great success.”
HARRIS TALKS WOMEN’S BODILY AUTONOMY, BLACK MATERNAL HEALTH
Finally, the vice president demanded that women have autonomy over their bodies despite the Supreme
She said her mom had always displayed passion and anger about existing disparities for women of color, particularly Black women.
“When I was in the U.S. Senate, we began proposing legislation to address this crisis, which is a crisis,” Harris exclaimed. “The United States of America is one of the world’s wealthiest, if not the richest, nations. [But], we have one of the highest maternal mortality rates, particularly Black women who are dying at three times the rate of others.
The vice president declared that the connection between Black wom- en and childbirth “has nothing to do with economic status or educational status.”
“It literally has to do with so often she walks into that hospital or clinic, and she is a Black woman who is not always taken seriously,” she said, before explaining her plan to rectify such challenges.
“I’ve been working to address a number of issues, including racial bias. We need to train medical professionals about racial bias so they can take these women seriously,” the vice president told the Informer. WI

Brandmeier, 36, moved to the neighborhood in 2020 with his wife, Sarah Brandmeier. He said that when their son was born last year, the fight to save the small park became even more important and personal.
“We saw a future here for him,” he said.
Like Talbert Terrace itself, the ad hoc committee is multigenerational and multiracial.
Eugene Johnson, a 69-year-old grandfather of eight, got involved about six months ago. A D.C. native, Johnson has lived in the neighborhood for about a year since moving in with his daughter in the Talbert Terrace home that has been in her family for three generations. Johnson de-
Sikder also hired workers for a home renovation without training or licensing in lead-safe practices. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) found four different violations at the site related to lead exposure, and sampling found lead on employees’ hands. After properly remediating the home, Sikder and District Properties LLC sold it without providing the buyer with any information about the home’s lead paint history.
Just over a month after Sikder’s conviction, the District allowed one of his companies, Rupsha 2011 LLC, to acquire the deed for the Talbert Terrace lot.
Neighbors have particular concerns about the possibility of a developer cutting corners at the property. The Talbert Terrace lot is on the same hill as River East at Grandview—a building that crumbled due to structural issues less than five years after its construction.
“I don't have any faith that this guy will come in and do the right thing,” Johnson said. “And will the District government in their compliance [enforcement] responsibility really make sure that things are done correctly?”
Tax Sales Without Guardrails
The members of the ad hoc committee say that the city had actually failed to enforce the rules long before Sikder’s 2019 conviction. They allege that Sikder should not have been eligible to purchase the playground lot—or any other properties—in the 2016 tax sale to begin with, and that the Office of Tax and Revenue (OTR) should not have allowed him to participate as a buyer.
“The District was asleep at the wheel,” Brandmeier said.
D.C. law includes some requirements for people who sign up to bid on properties in a tax sale auction. One of them is that buyers and their businesses cannot themselves be behind on their property taxes.
Yet, on the same day that Rupsha 2011 LLC bought Lot 1103 on Talbert Terrace—along with 73 other properties—Mohammad Sikder’s name appears in the sale’s records as an owner of a property being sold. That property, a small lot in Carver Langston, should only have been up for auction because its former owner, Sikder, was delinquent on the taxes.
Asked what the office does to ensure that purchasers during tax sales meet the eligibility requirements, a representative for the Office of Tax and Revenue responded that potential purchasers must certify under oath that they are not more than one year behind on property taxes.
“The information we got from OTR is that they don't have any ability to audit any of the purchaser requirements,” Brandmeier said. “Who knows how much fraud is going on? We don't know. They don't know. Nobody knows.”
What Could Come Next On The Legal Front
Since Rupsha 2011 LLC already foreclosed on the property and acquired the deed in 2019, few options remain available to prevent the company from building. The Office of Tax and Revenue representative said in an email that District law allows tax sales to be voided if the legal requirements were not met, but that the city can only take that step before the purchaser completes the foreclosure process in court.
The neighborhood group did not discover the problem until more than three years after Sikder finished the foreclosure process.
“We're carrying OTR on our backs,” Brandmeier said. “They're relying on AHRA, a neighborhood organization, to figure out who is eligible to participate in the tax sales that they've been running since the dawn of time.”
The Attorney General’s office told the group that it believed D.C. could not win a suit against the developer because the city had approved the purchase and D.C. Superior Court had granted the foreclosure.
Andrew Hunt, another neighbor volunteering on the ad hoc committee, said that the search for pro bono representation has so far proved difficult.
“This is a case that has little to no precedent,” Hunt, 30, said. “It takes a lawyer who is willing to give a community of 70 houses a chance against a city that is, in my opinion, rubber stamping developments left and right.”

“They come here, their memories open up, and they reminisce,” Burless said. “We’re going to take this to another level which will still be a grand gesture in memory loss.”
The DC Commission on Arts and Humanities has awarded a grant to GNJ for their Music Memory Café. The desired result is for retired musicians to have a good time while benefiting from a stimulating experience from music. Retired musicians who desire to participate in the jazz jam must be residents of the District of Columbia. They can bring their instruments to the GNJ jam sessions and play with a house band on June 5 and 12.
Advance registration is required to participate in the Genevieve N. Johnson Senior Daycare Center Music Memory Café jam session. For more information and to register, contact Angela Ballard at 202723-8537 or visit the website at www.gnjseniordaycare.com.

Parker credited the Crown Act as a milestone for Black women who've struggled to wear natural hair in the office. Both women also touted the importance of sisterhood and alliances with other affinity groups, particularly Black men.

Audience members had a chance to purchase copies of Copeland’s memoir, “The Wind at My Back,” which chronicled Copeland's friendship with the late Raven Wilkinson, the first African-American woman to dance for a major classical ballet company.
The release of Copeland’s memoir follows that of “The Firebird,” a children’s book that was inspired by her relationship with Wilkinson, along with two autobiographies and a documentary.
By the time Copeland became ABT’s first African-American principal dancer in 2015, she had two decades of ballet experience under her belt. Throughout her career, Copeland clinched several accolades, including the Los Angeles Music Center Spotlight Award, given to the best dancer in Southern California.
While with ABT’s Studio Company, Copeland rose through the ranks, starting out as a member and eventually becoming a corps de ballet and soloist. In her years as a soloist, Copeland experienced what experts described as maturation into “a more contemporary and sophisticated dancer.”

Replete with platitudes, Tim dropped clichés like "from victimhood to victory." "I chose personal responsibility over resentment," he said, and engaged in mindless class warfare. Biden, he says, wants to get "mechanics and waitresses" to pay for student loan forgiveness. In his rambling hourlong speech, Scott dusted off every Republican cliché about poor people, Black people and others. And he offered himself up as proof that there is no racism in this country. He can't explain the police killings of Black folks, though he did all he could to block the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act (2020) from passing. His life, he says, proves that opportunity works in America. Clearly he is too myopic to acknowledge that there is not opportunity for

We should no longer subsidize coal generation, and the electric bills of some Americans, with the lungs of Americans who live in Tatum or Cheshire, Ohio, or New Madrid, Missouri — anywhere the remaining 158 coal plants operate.

For some children, it's the first time they've seen books with characters who look like them and share some of the struggles in their lives. It's hard to be what you can't see, and just as children of color need to be able to see themselves in the books they read, all children need to be exposed to a wide range of books that reflect the true diversity of our nation and world as they really are. As one CDF Freedom Schools scholar said, "I see myself and the books give me hope." We believe experiences like plant nationally operates for less than a clean energy alternative that could replace it. It's one reason why the historic clean economy funding that President Biden and Congress approved in 2021 and 2022 is vital. We have the money to put an end to coal power once and for all.
If I had a dollar for every time Scott said "radical left" or "left" I'd be dining resplendently this evening. He did a masterful job of tarring the left and making empty promises about what he will do. I'll give him credit for energy and enthusiasm, but look askance at his promise to build up the military so that our allies can "respect" us while our adversaries will "fear" us. Military might, at what cost? Is every military dollar being spent efficiently?
What is Sen. Tim Scott running for? Secretary of Commerce, Labor or Housing and Urban Development? He mentioned his Empowerment Zone legislation (which many say has not yielded great results)? Does he want a role in foreign relations, given his rhetoric about China? Does he want to be Trump's running mate? Or secretary of education ("less CRT and more ABC")? Or is he running for chaplain?
There are 154 people who live downwind of Martin Lake who can't afford a delay of another year. And 154 the year after that. For them it's a matter of life and death. We have proven ways to make the air cleaner and we have a law that demands that. We need to act now. WI
"Stop cancelling our Founding Fathers," Scott said of the slaveholders who dehumanized million of Black people. "I am the candidate the far left the most," Scott roared. "The truth of my life disrupts their lies," he said. Tim Scott doesn't understand that it's not just about him. The fact that he lives the American dream doesn't mean that millions of others are missing it.
What is Tim Scott running for? I think he is running against a series of simple truths. Our nation is in decline thanks to the culture wars he so willingly participates in. Platitudes and attitudes won't change any of this. As long as Republicans are willing to punish the poor, restrict women's right to choose, and improve our education, we will keep spiraling downward. And the scripture-quoting man needs to understand that Bible-thumping is not public policy and faith without works is dead (James 2:26). WI these should be encouraged for all children. During National Reading Month the CDF Freedom Schools program created a list of "Banned Books We Love," a five-week curriculum of excellent diverse books for every reading level from K through 12th. Now is the time to add some of them to the summer reading list in your home this year! Children everywhere deserve the chance to find and choose books that will allow them to see themselves, understand what they have in common with others, and give them hope. As Amanda Gorman also wrote, "Together, this is a hill we won't just climb, but a hill we will conquer."

The travel advisory that we must undertake is one of intelligent research and uncompromising principles. Our first consideration must be how and where we spend our money. At what hotel will we stay? At which restaurant will we eat? What entertainment venues will we visit? Our choices will determine whether our dollars support our interests or the interests of Trumpism/DeSantism. Regardless of the circumstance or condition, we must make the con- scious choice to spend our dollars where they do us no harm.
Past patronage is meaningless. A business can make/serve/have the best fill-in-the-blank ever made, but if as you enter the business, you see a symbol such as a proTrump or pro-DeSantis poster/ banner, you MUST turn around and leave as though the poster read: KLAN RALLY AHEAD –ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!!
If there are no symbols or if no business position on the Trump/ DeSantis policies has been officially established – ASK! This might make you uncomfortable, but the discomfort is temporary while the result of inaction might be discomfort for your children or grandchildren. Local organizations can simplify this process by identifying local businesses which support or reject the principles of discrimination.
No such initiative can be comfortable, painless, or immediately resolve the challenge. There are no guarantees that it can be accomplished without casualties. The only certainty is that it cannot be accomplished without commitment!

To add insult to injury, they can't even agree if they want to negotiate. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has insisted on a negotiated deal before raising the debt ceiling. But the House Freedom Caucus — dozens of members who were key to his election as speaker — demand no negotiations — calling for default unless their entire program is accepted, including measures that they couldn't even get through the Republican House.
The House zealots are emboldened by Donald Trump who argues they should just default on the debt if they workers participate in the economic opportunity that renewable energy investments are creating. As the eminent threats of climate change continues to loom, we can no longer afford to ignore it. We have an opportunity to realize the clean energy transition in a way that creates a more inclusive and equitable economy, but we need to implement bold and innovative ideas to be part of it. WI don't get their way. He clearly figures that if they blow up the economy under Biden, he will benefit politically.

President Biden initially said that while he was prepared to negotiate over next year's budget to increase deficit reduction, he wasn't going to give into extortion over debt default. Then he foolishly agreed to negotiations, only to see the Republican extremists in the so-called "Freedom Caucus" demand an end to negotiations and capitulation to their full wish list. Inevitably, the more he bends, the more they demand — even though their demands are offensive to the vast majority of Americans.
It is preposterous to empower the zaniest extremists of the House with the power to default on the national debt, tank the stock market, discredit the dollar and drive the economy into a recession or worse unless they get their way.
There is an alternative. The 14th Amendment to the Constitution — passed at the end of the Civil War — provides that the "validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law … shall not be questioned."
It is time for President Biden to stand up for the good faith and credit of this country. He should invoke the 14th Amendment, denounce the extortion over the debt ceiling as a violation of that constitutional pledge, and instruct the Treasury secretary to pay America's debts. Republicans will howl and stomp and go to court. So be it. Better that than to enable fools and zealots to hold the country hostage. WI
