Westside Community

Garden GrowsBy Dianne AndersonStaff Writer

For at least six months out of the year,

Terrace West families can put some good nutritious food on the table for only $20 – the catch is that there is a little elbow grease involved.

Charle Jacobs is calling on people who aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty and come out a few times a week to Nicholson Park gardens to help grow dinner.

“Once the trees and garden start producing fruit, it’s all you can eat,” said Jacobs, president of Terrace West Neighborhood Association, at the border of San Bernardino and Rialto.

These days, real food is hard to find, aside from the health food store where produce usually runs high. She said it’s sad that most city kids have never seen how food grows. They are totally disconnected from nutrition.

“They need to know where it comes from, and what it looks like. Many kids don’t know,” she said.

Above ground and in-ground planting starts in about four weeks. Last year, a handful of residents participated, some pulling bumper tomato crops. Others tried their hand at square-foot gardening.

“You can get a pretty good haul,” she said. “We’re totally organic.”

At Nicholson Park, Terrace West also hosts its fruit orchard. At one time, they had about 30 trees, but she wasn’t completely surprised that some people got greedy.

“They stole 11 trees. They were in the ground, and small. We knew it was going to happen. The trees are big now, they would have a heck of a time,” she laughed.

Still, she is not interested in “policing” the food. They provide it for the community.

As the trees start producing fruit, everyone can access the food. For the most part, people respect the gleaning process, but she would like to see more residents get involved helping those who are less fortunate.

In the next few weeks, they will prepare the ground under a master gardener from Cal State San Bernardino to give tips on best growing techniques. The garden is located 2750 W. 2nd Nicholson Park, Meridian and 2nd Street.

Around the city, she has seen other community gardens flourish with increased participation from residents, but she said Terrace West has been slow to get in on the action. Because the area is off the beaten path of San Bernardino, she said it’s up to local residents to pick up some of the slack as the city fights through the bankruptcy.

The city doesn’t have adequate staff, resources or the time to keep on top of all of the local issues.

“But there’s a lot of things we can do for ourselves to make our community better,” she said.

Whenever residents see any negative activity related to blight, graffiti or trash, she said they should call in complaints frequently at 909.384.7272.

In the past, the area has had vacant

UCR New Black

Law AssnBy Dianne AndersonStaff Writer

Getting into the legal field isn’t all about the coveted esquire designation, or even the potential to earn a six-figure income.

For African Americans, the legal system has become synonymous with the pipeline to prison, and hardly any fair representation from Black law professionals.

This month, Mekdelawit Tsehay said that UCR Black Student Law Association will spotlight important stories of how local African Americans made it through the tough study and are now making a difference in their communities.

With so few Black students pursuing legal careers, she said the new law club is focused on extra support for students that may feel law school is beyond their reach.

On February 27, the UC Black Student Law Association hosts its Professional Speaker Series: “So you want to be a

Lawyer?” The event will be held at INTS 1134 from 6:10 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., featuring guest speakers from the Richard T. Fields Bar Association, along with attending judges.

Tsehay, co-president of the association, said she wants to share their stories.

“Especially for African Americans because there is a different obstacle you face in law. It’s important to hear how they got where they got, and how they bounced back from the obstacles,” she said.

The club, co-founded last year by

Washington - President Obama will select a nominee to succeed the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia despite fierce opposition by Republican leaders who prefer the seat be left vacant for nearly a year so that it can be filled by the next president.

Obama said in a statement Saturday, “I plan to fulfill my constitutional responsibilities to nominate a successor in due time. There will be plenty of time for me to do so, and for the Senate to fulfill its responsibility to give that person a fair hearing and a timely vote. These are responsibilities that I take seriously, as should everyone. They’re bigger than any one party. They are about our democracy.”

Scalia, one of the most conservative members of the court, died of an apparent heart attack over the weekend while on a hunting trip in Texas. He was part of the 5-4 conservative majority on the nation’s highest court. Were he to be replaced by a moderate or liberal jurist, that would shift the balance of the court, something Republicans had pledged to fight against.

Under the constitution, the president has an obligation to appoint the Supreme Court justice, who must then be confirmed by the Senate. However, conservatives who normally boast of being strict adherents of the U.S. Constitution, are altering that stance in a presidential election year.

Senator Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), who had already pledged to block any Obama nominations prior to Scalia’s death, urged President

Obama not to submit a nominee and said if Obama does, the Senate will not act on the nomination prior to the expiration of Obama’s term next January.

“The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice,” McConnell said in a statement. “Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new President.”

Democrats countered that the American people made their voice heard in the last two presidential elections, voting Obama into office in 2008 and re-electing by a wide margin in 2012.

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) issued a statement saying, “The President can and should send the Senate a nominee right away. With so many important issues pending

Showdown Brewing Over Naming Scalia’s Successor

Dreamers, Visionaries & Leaders Project

By Eliz DowdyStaff Writer

The community recognition project known as Dreamers, Visionaries, and Leaders (DVL) that chronicle the accomplishments of African Americans in the high desert has reached maturity. This was the seventh year that the accomplishments of community leaders were brought into prime focus by the DVL Project. It is the brainchild of Mrs. Regina Weatherspoon Bell. Each year, Weatherspoon-Bell has expanded the DVL Project, there are video exhibitions in the various city halls public places, past and current recipients are engaged in community sharing at public libraries, and this year a radio program and ads on buses chronicling some of the awardees. She has brought together a coalition of supporters that are determined to make sure the knowledge is flowing back into the Black communities.

The project has set up a scholarship program for award recipients to give back into the community. The scholarships are named for three of the former award recipients that are deceased. Dr. Gerard Brown, Bishop Nathaniel Ruffin, Leona Griner, and Anna Sugi.

Another expansion is the Lifetime

Achievement Award. Among the recipients this year is Dr. Vincent E. Ajanwachuku, who came to the United States in 1973 from Nigeria, attended New York University earning a bachelor’s degree in biology. Then it was off to Howard University, where he met his wife to be Melanie Brown Ajanwachuku. She was also a student at Howard University. Her father, Dr. Gerard Brown, was the first African American oral surgeon in the High Desert. Dr. Ajanwachuku has distinguished himself in the medical community, having obtained a stellar record at each juncture in his career. He joined the staff of St. Mary’s Medical Center, now St. Joseph’s Health, and has been Chief of Surgery since 2004. He and Melanie have two sons.

The Lifetime Achievement Award was also bestowed upon Dr. Mildred Dalton Hampton-Henry. She was the first African American to attain tenure and the status of Full Professor in the School of Education at California State University San Bernardino. When she retired, then CSUSB President Al Karnig awarded the title of Professor Emeritus to Dr. Henry. In 1984, she founded the community non-profit organization the PAL Center, the Provisional Educational

Services Incorporated that provides education, employment training, social services and placement for those in need.

Dr. Henry is a native of Tamo, Arkansas, where she grew up on a farm doing all the chores of the day to survive, while attending inferior and segregated schools.

The PAL Center was given permission to operate the first charter school approved by the San Bernardino City Unified School District. There is a new elementary school that carries her name that opened in August 2013. She has received wide recognition for her accomplishments.

The 2016 DVL honorees are: Ms. Mina Blazy, Principal, Gus Franklin STEM Academy; Dr. Lakieta Emanuel, SLPD, Chief Clinical Director, HD Speech & Language Center, Inc.; Cedric Evans, President, Field Hogz Sports; Alexandra Gessesse, Academic Achievement & Community Service; Thomas & Tamara Lee, president and vice president High Desert Black Heritage Committee, and Founders of Trubian Village; Vickie Mack, Executive Director, Sterling Solutions; Joan Rudder-Ward, photographer and filmmaker.

Mistress of ceremonies was Dawnn Lewis noted actress and humanitarian.

Project21Dance will bring dance, music and spoken word to San Bernardino Val-ley College this Friday, Feb. 19 at 7:30 pm in the main Auditorium as part of the Black History Month celebration. The event is free and open to the public. For more in-formation go to project21dance.org

From community partnerships with Pomona Unified School District to improve literacy, to providing jobs for previously incarcerated women looking for a second start in life, the Webbs are leaving a legacy in Southern California.

“There is so much that we get from giving back to our community and that truth as a legacy is something that I want to move forward with everything that’s in my being,” says son, Kyle. The ability to provide first jobs and initial training for people of different backgrounds is what Kyle says he enjoys the most working in partnership as a franchisee with McDonald’s.

ADVERTORIAL

Celebrating Black History 365 days of the year.

When McDonald’s® was founded, the company was built on the foundation of opportunity and community. During the discomfort of the Civil Rights movement in 1968, it was realized in

order for business leaders to provide hope and inspiration – as well as be deeply-rooted in their community – they needed to own restaurants in the areas where they lived. When Southern California McDonald’s owner/operator Reggie Webb started as a management trainee with McDonald’s over 40 years ago, he knew he wanted to tie his rising star to an innovative company. Today, along with his wife Renee and two children Kiana and Kyle, Reggie owns 17 restaurants spanning the Inland Empire and throughout Los Angeles.

Kiana says she believes the family legacy is rooted in being visible and taking care of the community. “It’s so nice to walk into stores and see familiar faces and have conversations with our restaurant guests about taking care of each other, finding out how they are doing, getting involved in others’ lives,” she states. “Every one of the employees who work with us comes from the communities where we have our businesses. It’s important to me to give them the best opportunity, not from just the moment they come to the store but from the moment they are within our communities, to be successful in life the way they choose it.” Today, there are 300 African-American families that own McDonald’s restaurants in the United States and six African-American families that own close to 50 restaurants across Southern California. McDonald’s owner/operators, like Reggie Webb, are continuing what McDonald’s was founded on by building legacies and opportunities for their community. You can hear more of the Webb’s story, and learn about the importance of opportunity at McDonald’s, by visiting: youtube.com/mcdonaldssocal.

“Our legacy is all about initiating and starting something that continues well beyond us into generations that we don’t even know, says Reggie. “My wife and I have transitioned from being the leaders of our business to having our children be the leaders. I can see a day where their children are coming up to do what they are doing today.”

Scalia’s Successor(Cont. from Page A-1)

before the Supreme Court, the Senate has a responsibility to fill vacancies as soon as possible. It would be unprecedented in recent history for the Supreme Court to go a year with a vacant seat. Failing to fill this vacancy would be a shameful abdication of one of the Senate’s most essential Constitutional responsibilities.”

And the record appears to support Reid.

Writing on the Supreme Court site Scotusblog, Amy Howe observed, “The historical record does not reveal any instances since at least 1900 of the president failing to nominate and/or the Senate failing to confirm a nominee in a presidential election year because of the impending election.”

Ironically, McConnell and every other Republican voted on Feb. 2, 1988 to confirm Ronald Reagan’s Supreme Court appointment in his last year in office, which was also an election year. The Senate, then under Democratic-control, voted 97-0, with three absent, to confirm Anthony M. Kennedy. Kennedy was supported by 51 Democrats and 46 Republicans.

Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), the chairman of the

Senate Judiciary Committee, issued a statement Saturday saying, “The fact of the matter is that it’s been standard practice over the last 80 years to not confirm Supreme Court nominees during a presidential election year.”

However, Grassley was also among those voting for Kennedy in the 1988 election year.

As conservative as Scalia was, he was not as far to the right as justice Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, according to the Judicial Common Space project, which measures the ideology of Supreme Court Justices from 1953-2000.

Because of a progressive Black voice on the Supreme Court, some Obama supporters have urged him to nominate a Black woman - either Attorney General Loretta Lynch or California Attorney General Kamala Harris, a Howard University graduate - to fill that vacancy. Former U.S. Attorney General H. Holder, among others, has also mentioned as a possibility.

However, at the beginning of this week, the leading candidate appeared to be Sri Srinivasan, a judge on the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals, a popular stepping stone to the

Supreme Court. The son of immigrants from India, he clerked for conservative appeals court Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson and Sandra Day O’Connor, a frequent swing voter on the Supreme Court.

Srinivasan, 48, former chief deputy to the U.S. solicitor general, was confirmed for his present position by the Senate by a vote of 97-0 in 2013, a fact Obama hopes will make his nomination more difficult to oppose.

A ruling in at least a six major court cases may be postponed until a new justice is seated. The cases involve:

Whether universities can use race as a factor in admissions (Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin);

Whether states can change how voting districts are drawn based on total population or the number of eligible voters (Evenwel v. Abbott and Harris v. Arizona Ind. Redistricting);

Whether unions can collect fees from non-union workers to use for collective bargaining (Friedrichs v. California Teachers Association);

Whether states can impose strict medical regulations on abortion clinics that may cause many of them to close (Whole Woman’s Health v. Cole);

Whether religious nonprofit groups can be required to provide employees with birth control

that conflicts with their religious beliefs ( Zubik v. Burwell) and

Whether the federal government can defer deportation of undocumented immigrants and give them legal protection.

Although some of the cases have already been argued, they will be re-argued, if court precedent is followed.

The threat to sideline any Obama nomination to the Supreme Court follows a Republican slowdown of judicial appointments already underway.

According to a Brookings Institution study in September, “Senate Republicans’ aggressive slowdown in judicial confirmations so far in 2015 - and what is likely to be a continued slowdown through 2016 - are contrary to the confirmation records in the final two years of the other two-term presidencies since 1961 - Ronald Reagan, William Clinton, and George W. Bush.”

And the obstruction is not limited to judges.

According to an investigation by Politico, “New data compiled by the Congressional Research Service and obtained by POLITICO found that the Senate in 2015 confirmed the lowest number of civilian nominations - including judges and diplomatic ambassadors - for the first session of a Congress in nearly 30 years.”

properties, but she said her association fought off negative development. At one time, there was talk of putting an industrial commercial car yard in the community. They also fought against it.

Over the decades, she has seen the peaks and valleys of the area, and the impact of bad development, or under-development, has had on the Westside.

She remembers the 1950’s when many Black businesses were thriving.

“They pushed the freeway through, and you had all the bridges you had to go over. Before that, on Mt. Vernon, you could walk straight to E Street. It was robust,” she said.

Segregated by the freeway system, the Black community took a big hit when all of the businesses on Mt. Vernon dried up. Back in the early 1980’s, she recalls contacting former 6th Ward Councilman John Hobbs, saying that something needed to be done. She wasn’t sure what, or how to start.

“I just knew that I didn’t like it. That’s how people are today. They’re not engaged in the process. You’re dissatisfied, but you don’t know where to go,” she said.

This year, between the garden and their regular association meetings, she hopes more residents will come out, and learn how they can have a hand in cleaning up and developing their neighborhood.

“Hopefully, we’ll have more classes and information. We want to be a go-to location for the community and try to turn things around,” she said.

For more information, call Ms. Jacobs at 909.889.0181

Tsehay and Nichole Martin, hopes to continue the event annually because many students are still not aware that UCR offers pre-law studies.t

Law and Society can be added as a dual major in any area of study, she said. But, her biggest concern is making sure students have access to courses to pass the LSAT test. It doesn’t come cheap.

Getting those critical courses to Black students is a major part of the process because they usually can’t afford to prepare for the test. This year, the club’s is giving away one prize LSAT course to help a student pass the admissions test, valued at $1,400.

In the future, she hopes to give away more.

“Not being able to pay for a class shouldn’t be the reason why you don’t take law. We’re trying to get at least five scholarships per year for students that are members of our club,” she said.

Tsehay, 21, a fourth-year student, and has been interviewing and applying for a variety of fellowships this past year, including a diversity initiative fellowship in DC. to work in federal government.

Both law and litigation are interesting, but she loves politics

and policy.“I’m not holding myself back

from anything and I’m applying to a lot of different things,” she said.

In other UCR Black History Month events, several screenings and lectures will also spark important dialogue among all students.

Next week, the Black Student Union is calling on students to dust off their dashikis and join in the celebration of Spirit Week from the 21st through the 26th with dress up and photo ops.

Beyond the festive mood, Sharee Hughes, interim program coordinator for African Student Programs, said the Black History lineup is helping open awareness for context around current events.

This year, the organization has hosted several collaborations, including a screening of Bob Marley, and Straight Outta’ Compton, an area of South Central Los Angeles where she spent part of her growing years. Although she was born after much of the chaos of the early 1990’s had subsided, she said the social trauma has had a lingering impact.

Hughes, who graduated UCR last year with dual majors of psychology and Law and Society, said that after the screening, many white and Asian students came up to her to talk about some concepts they had only learned from their textbooks.

The film was focused on the start of prison pipeline when many young Black men were killed.

“It resonated because they had learned these things in the classroom, and the movie is supposedly based on a true story. They said it was good to see it on screen,” she said.

Healthy Hearts and Lifestyle Changes Awareness

By Eliz Dowdy,Staff Writer

Hearts of Color presented the first Healthy Hearts and Lifestyle Changes Awareness summit recently. The event was held at the Heritage Neighborhood Center in Fontana.

February is designated, “Healthy Heart Month” so the informational/lifestyle change summit brought professional knowledgeable presenters to help the attendees make wise decisions.

Following the opening/welcome by mistress of

ceremonies, Joanne Gilbert, the invocation was delivered by Pastor John Braxton. To assure that all the speakers would have their allotted time the sessions began immediately.

The first presenter was Linda Smith. She has amassed thirty-eight years in the medical field; and founded Four-D College which was operational for twenty-three years. Smith’s topic was, “Let Your Voice Be Heard,” the primary focus was to parents, to enable them to set the culture of their homes. She stated that children eat what you eat, wear what you purchase, and the role of parents is to make better decisions for their children. Stress is one of the precursors for certain types of cardiovascular disease; when the

balance of power in the home is skewed, the parents are placed in a state of continual stress, and stress related diseases follow.

Brandie Taylor, a victim of heart disease and heart transplant recipient, shared the methods that did not work for her, and told the attendees not to be afraid to ask questions when they are with their physicians. They should also have a knowledge of their family’s medical history. Brandie, a Native American ended her session with a Native American blessing from her lipay Nation of Santa Ysabel. She is also a legislator for her nation, serving her fourth term in the political arena. She spoke about the symptoms of heart

Starving Government Creates a Disaster Like Flint

Standing on Sacred Ground

All Eyes on the Black

VoteBy George E. CurryGeorge Curry Media

Now that we have gotten the first two political anomalies out of the way en route to electing a new president - mostly White Iowa and New Hampshire - the primaries and caucuses are moving to states that are more representative of a diverse America and the outcomes will be heavily influenced by the Black vote.

Black voters will make up half or nearly half of all Democratic voters in North Carolina, Georgia and Louisiana.

Super Tuesday, March 1, has also been billed as the SEC Primary. Six southern states - Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia - will hold a primary or caucus that day.

More than half of all African Americans live in the South and they will play a crucial role in determining whether Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders gets the Democratic nomination and whether a Democrat or a Republican succeeds Barack Obama, the first Black U.S. president.

In its report, “50 Years of the Voting Rights Act: The State of Race in Politics,” the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies pointed out, “Turnout among black Southerners exceeded that of their white counterparts in four of the twelve presidential elections since 1965, and nationwide black turnout clearly exceeded white turnout in presidential elections in 2012 and perhaps in 2008.”

Black political clout will not be limited to the South.“Deconstructing exit poll data from 2012, African-American

voters accounted for Obama’s entire margin of victory in seven states: Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia,” according to the Cook Political Report. “Without these states’ 112 electoral votes, Obama would have lost decisively. African-Americans also accounted for almost all of Obama’s margin in Wisconsin. All of these states, except Maryland, will be crucial 2016

battlegrounds.”The Black vote will also

be important in determining whether Blacks gain a stronger foothold in elective politics.

The Joint Center report noted, “Based on the most recent data, African Americans are

12.5% of the citizen voting age population, but they make up a smaller share of the U.S. House (10%), state legislatures (8.5%), city councils (5.7%), and the U.S. Senate (2%).”

That same pattern holds true for other people of color.

“Latinos make up 11% of the citizen voting age population, but they are a smaller share of the

U.S. House (7%), state legislatures (5%), the U.S. Senate (4%), and city councils

(3.3%),” the report stated. “Asian Americans are 3.8% of the citizen voting age population but a smaller share of the U.S. House (2%),state legislatures (2%), the U.S. Senate (1%), and city councils (0.4%).”

Because Blacks vote at a higher rate than Latinos at this point and are more diverse geographically, the major attention is being paid to them.

The contest between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton is an intense one, splitting families, pitting friends against one another and, unfortunately, are characterized by attacks that misrepresent the record of the opposing side.

Firmly lined up in the Clinton camp are most members of the Congressional Black Caucus, who through the CBC PAC, endorsed her candidacy. She is also supported by many other Black elected officials, former Attorney General Eric Holder, and Lucy McBath, whose son, Jordan Davis, was killed in Florida in 2013 for allegedly playing his music too loud.

n the Sanders corner are entertainer and long-time civil rights activist Harry Belafonte, Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), Professor Cornell West, former NAACP President Benjamin Jealous and writer Ta-Nehesi Coates.

In endorsing Clinton, Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) said in response to a reporter’s question, “I never saw him. I never met him [Sanders]. “I was chair of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee for three years, from 1963 to 1966,” Lewis said. “I was involved with the sit-ins, the Freedom Rides, the March on Washington, the march from Selma to Montgomery [Alabama] and directed [the] voter education project for six years. But I met Hillary Clinton. I met President [Bill] Clinton.”

Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton is being attacked for policies of her husband that expanded the incarceration rate of African Americans, especially Black males.

Michelle Alexander, the author of The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness, wrote an article for the Nation magazine under the headline, “Why Hillary Clinton Doesn’t Deserve the Black Vote.”

Each side needs to step back and acknowledge that both Sanders and Clinton have excellent records on civil rights - each consistently earns an A on the NAACP Legislative Report Card. And yes, both have longtime ties to the Civil Rights Movement.

Frankly, I am tired of hearing each of them say how much better Blacks would be under a Sanders or Clinton administration without offering any evidence. Without a doubt, either would be infinitely better than anyone running for president on the Republican side. And each Democratic candidate, in his and her own way, have acknowledged as much.

Rather than continuing a mindless debate about who is the real progressive in the race, let each of them offer detailed proposals that show that Black Lives Matter. So, far when the subject of race has come up, neither has been particularly impressive. They tend to focus their remarks on reforming the criminal justice system - which is extremely important -but our problems extend beyond the prison pipeline.

After they detail their specific proposals, Black voters will determine who is the real progressive.

Three unarmed Black men encountered a group of White men walking down a dirt road in Slocum, Texas on July 29, 1910. Without warning, and with no reason, the White men opened fire on the Black men. And for two days White men simply slaughtered Black people. Eight deaths have been officially acknowledged, but historians who have studied the Slocum Massacre say that it is likely that dozens more were killed, with some saying as many were killed in Slocum as in Tulsa in 1921 (and those numbers range into the hundreds). The New York Times

quoted William Black, the sheriff at the time of the massacre:

“Men were going about killing Negroes as fast as they could find them, and so far as I was able to ascertain, without any real cause. I don’t know how many were in the mob, but there may have been 200 or 300. … They hunted the Negroes down like sheep.”

History mostly swallowed the horror of the Slocum Massacre. Some descendants of those massacred pushed for official acknowledgement of the horror, but there have been efforts to cover up the carnage, with

some in Slocum pretending that the Massacre never happened. It took more than a century, until 2011, for the Texas Legislature to formally acknowledge the massacre. A roadside marker commemorating the tragedy was just placed on January 26, 2016. A local member of the Anderson County Historical Commission opposed the marker because, “The citizens of Slocum today had absolutely nothing to do with what happened over a hundred years ago. This is a nice, quiet community with a wonderful school system. It would be a shame to mark them as racist from now until the end of time.”

E.R. Bills, author of The 1910 Slocum Massacre: An Act of Genocide in East Texas, says that there are more than 16,000 historical markers in the state of Texas. “The Slocum Massacre historical marker

will apparently be the first one to specifically acknowledge racial violence against African Americans.” His book meticulously documents the Slocum facts, and asserts, “Many white folks got away with murder”. Only 11 were arrested for their role in the massacre. Seven were indicted but none were prosecuted for their crimes. The eleven were only the known criminals. According to Bills, many murderers buried dead bodies on their land to perpetuate the cover up.

The Slocum historical marker stands on sacred ground. There is much other sacred ground in these United States, ground that is soaked with the blood of lynched and murdered African Americans. Yet there are few markers of our nation’s historical madness. The Equal Justice Initiative, an Alabama-based organization that has documented the magnitude of our nation’s lynching history, hopes to build markers and memorials on lynching sites, much like the one in Slocum. We need these memorials to remind us of an era of racial terror, and to consider the contemporary consequences of that terror.

This year the association for the study of African American life and history (ASALH) has chosen Hallowed Grounds: Sites of African American Memories as their Black History Month Theme. While ASALH has not focused specifically on markers and memorials for sites of lynching and massacres, the focus location is important. They mention plantations, historic homes, and historic streets (like Beale Street in Memphis, Sweet Auburn Avenue in Atlanta, and 125 Street in Harlem) as important places to embrace and celebrate.

Many of our nation’s major cities have experienced gentrification in the past decade or so. Washington, DC is no longer Chocolate City – more like neapolitan or chocolate chip. The 125 Street of the Harlem Renaissance has diversified, as young whites with deep pockets are pushing the prices of historic brownstones into the seven or eight figure price range. No matter. The places are still sacred ground, and should be recognized as such. It is important to acknowledge these places with statues, markers, and memorials, lest we forget. Those who don’t know history are doomed to repeat it. We assert that Black Lives Matter because so many black lives were obliterated in Slocum, and because for far too long it was convenient and comfortable to forget a heinous massacre.

For the residents of Flint, Mich., the water crisis continues. Their governor and President Obama have declared a state of emergency. Congress is holding hearings. Presidential candidates are doing tours and debates. Free filters are being handed out. Resident can pick up bottled water. The city has gone back to water coming out of Lake Huron rather than the Flint River. But for parents, the fears remain - and almost nothing has been done. They will join in a March on Flint on Feb. 19 to demand action at the national and state level.

Flint residents don’t know if the filters work. They don’t know if they should bathe in the water or use it to wash clothes. Almost all the children in Flint under age 6 have been exposed to elevated levels of lead in the water. And the water still isn’t safe. Flint, already impoverished before the calamity, has been devastated. People don’t know whether to trust eating in restaurants. Universities are finding it hard to recruit students. Businesses aren’t about to move into Flint.

Even before the crisis, Flint had 11,000 vacant lots and 10,000 abandoned homes, according to the Washington Post. The population has fallen by more than half since 1960, as General Motors shipped jobs away. Forty percent of the city’s population is living below the poverty line. The average household income is about $25,000, less than half that of typical U.S. household.

Now, the 30,000 homes that are occupied have lost virtually all their value. Who would buy a house where the water is not safe to

drink?Mayor Karen Weaver estimates it will cost $45 million to replace

the lead service lines to 15,000 homes in Flint, according to the Post. Mona Hanna Attisha, the pediatrician who helped exposed the lead poisoning in children, estimates it will cost $100 million to combat the potential effects. Overhauling the Flint water distribution system will cost an estimated $1 billion.

No one knows where the money will come from. The president’s state of emergency freed up a few million federal dollars in short-term assistance. State and private donations have added up to $28 million, but a good portion of that has to repay Flint residents for the water bills they are paying when they can’t use the water.

For the residents of Flint, this is a disaster. The damage suffered is like getting hit by a Katrina-like hurricane. The federal government should declare it a national disaster and mandate action. Congress should step up and appropriate emergency funds. Flint residents may

be disproportionately older, poorer and Black - but they are part of this country.

The national disaster has hit Flint but it is already coming to other communities. Lead pipes were banned 30 years ago, but there are an estimated 3.3 to 10 million still in service, according to the New York Times. EPA’s trigger level for action - 15 parts of lead in a billion - is arbitrary, set not on the basis of a health standard, but so 90 And EPA’s annual budget for safe drinking water has fallen 15 percent since 2002, with 10 percent of its staff lost. In 2013, 17 states cut their

drinking water budgets by more than a fifth.One-third of Americans get drinking water from wetlands and

tributaries not yet supervised by EPA. When the Agency sought to issue a rule, reports the Times, the Republican-controlled Congress passed legislation to overturn it and two dozen states sued to stop it, worried that it would hurt business.

The Guardian reports that its inside sources suggest that in “every major U.S. city east of the Mississippi,” water authorities “systematically distort water tests” to downplay the levels of lead in the water.

At $5,000 a pipe, according to the Times, it is estimated that it would cost up to $50 billion to get rid of lead pipes servicing homes with water. That’s on top of the $384 billion EPA estimates it will need in deferred maintenance to keep drinking water safe.

Yet conservatives keep slashing core budgets in order to keep cutting top end taxes. The problem with making government so small that you can “drown it in a bathtub” - conservative lobbyist Grover Norquist’s famous quip - is that you’ll end up like Flint, with your children drinking and bathing with poisoned water.

Clean and safe drinking water isn’t a luxury. It shouldn’t require purchasing bottled water. It should be provided and policed by our government. It should be a basic necessity that we share in providing securely. Flint shows the horror of violating that basic trust. Only Flint is not alone. If we continue to starve basic functions of government, we will see more and more Flints in our future.

It is Saturday afternoon at the world renowned Pan African Film Festival (PAFF) in Los Angeles. The RAVE theatre is packed, standing room only. The Fire Marshal is not far away watching and warning the overly excited crowd of their safety presence. “Will everyone please take their seats,” says a booming loud voice from a far right corner. Moments later, in strolls actor Nate Parker and his team that includes author and historian Dr. Gerald Horne, and film producer Preston Holmes. The audience explodes into applause as the team takes their seats for an intimate conversation about the most talked about new film “The Birth of a Nation.”

Parker, who has starred in several popular movies (Beyond the Lights, The Secret Life of Bees & The Great Debaters), has reclaimed the story of his #1 hero, since he learned of him in college seven years ago. “In my African American history growing up, usually I was the only African American in the room.” He continues, “When I learned about Nat Turner and his contributions, the suffering and his courage, I started to look people right in the eye and say, Nat Turner is my hero.”

The movie “The Birth of a Nation” is a 2016 American biographical film about Nat Turner, the African-American slave who led a slave rebellion in Southampton County, Virginia in 1831. The film is written, produced, and directed by Nate Parker, who also stars as Nat Turner. Parker wrote the screenplay and petitioned financiers to invest in the film. It was filmed for 27 days in the State of Georgia in May & June 2015. Along with Parker, the film features Armie Hammer, Aja Naomi King, Jackie Earle Haley, Penelope Ann Miller, and Gabrielle Union.

“Everyone was especially chosen for this project by me,” said Parker. In January, the film premiered in competition at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival. It won the Audience Award and Grand Jury Prize in the U.S. Dramatic Competition. Fox Searchlight Pictures bought worldwide rights to the film in a $17.5 million deal, the largest

deal at the film festival to date.Parker stated, “As a people

we do not tend to celebrate resistance. This movie is not your usual Hollywood type of thing. I am unapologetic about the solid truths in this movie. So, I knew that making this movie was going to be a journey. For two years, I have kissed many frogs talking with anyone who had money to finance this film. And I received negativity about committing career suicide from people who dearly love me and protect me.” Continuing Parker said, “But I embraced the film and its purpose. There is a value system that discredits a human race. If we are to tell our stories then it is going to take these three things: courage, faith and sacrifice. As Maya Angelou once said, the world gains nothing from you being small.”

The story of Nat Turner is a conflicting story with many untruths and half-truths documented about the slave who led an historic rebellion of slaves and freed black men in South

Hampton, County Virginia. Parker said, “But, I did the years of research on this historical character. And from the moment I learned of him, I have always felt and known that I would play him one day. Hook or crook, I knew that I would play this role and tell his story. And this movie means to deal a massive blow to white supremacy, a healing in racism, designing and creating a new nation of thinkers.”

The PAFF established in 1992, is dedicated to the promotion of cultural understanding, racial tolerance through the exhibition of film, art, and creative expression among people of African descent. The festival showcases over one hundred fifty (150) quality new films all highlighting the diversity and complexity of people of African descent. The film and arts festival was held at the Baldwin Hill Crenshaw Plaza and RAVE Cinemas 15 from February 4-15.

A Conversation with Nate Parker

“The Birth Of A Nation”

Film Review:

T r i p l e 9By Dwight Brown NNPA News Wire Film Critic

Honor among thieves? Not with this bunch. These guys are playing a mean duplicitous game, and as they do, you can’t guess who will survive. That’s the mark of a solid, tense cop/crime/thriller. A good one will keep you speculating, until the last bullet leaves its chamber.

Terrell Tompkins (Chiwetel Ejiofor), Russell Welch (Norman Reedus) and his brother Gabe (Aaron Paul) go back a long way. They were in a special ops unit, and they haven’t lost their nerve. They can shoot a guy, rob a bank and create a lot of chaos without much of a conscience. Marcus Atwood (Anthony Mackie) and Jorge Rodriguez (Clifton Collins Jr.), two dirty cops, work with them.

The guys rob a bank in broad daylight in Atlanta. They’re out to steal a safe deposit box. Gabe, not one to stick to a plan, takes money too. They’re in the midst of a getaway when a red dye bomb in the dough goes off and causes mayhem. The heist was a job for a Russian-Israeli mob boss named Irina Vlaslov (Kate Winslet). She is not satisfied with the catch. She has another assignment for the group, and if they balk, she will kill them, one by one. Or, she won’t allow Terrell to see his son who is the offspring of her flighty, dizzy sister Elena (Gal Gadot, Fast & Furious 6 & 7).

A Sergeant Detective Jeffrey Allen (Woody Harrelson) tracks

the robbers. His nephew, Chris Allen (Casey Affleck), a cop, joins Marcus’s gang task force unit, becoming Marcus’ partner. Things are getting too close. The guys may have to resort to a deadly “999” scheme diversion. Triple 9 is a highest priority police code for “officer down.”

With movies like “The Proposition,” a Western, and “Lawless” (starring Tom Hardy and Shia LaBeouf) a Depression-era drama, Australian director John Hillcoat has demonstrated a penchant for cold violence perfectly orchestrated in gunfights and brawls. He is the steady hand that starts this urban story with a bang and ends it with more murder. Scenes of cops in the projects chasing drug dealers feel real. When the robbers deceive each other you don’t question much. Rarely has Atlanta seemed so gritty, but cinematographer Nicolas Karakatsanis (The Drop), production designer, Tim Grimes (The Wrestler) and Hillcoat take you to the wrong side of the tracks and hold you hostage.

Matt Cook’s screenplay puts a slight twist on the crime genre by grouping several disparate variables into one story: dirty cops, former special op soldiers, an alcoholic investigating detective and a heartless lady crime lord. Mix in a largely African American city, a depressed Latino neighborhood, White working class cops and the “Kosher Mafia,” and the multi-cultural potpourri becomes intriguing.

Chiwetel Ejiofor and Anthony Mackie are superb actors, but both look a bit too clean-cut to be sleazy. Within the confines of their physical attributes and perfect diction, they do their best. Norman Reedus is decent. Winslet’s accent as the unforgiving Irina is tolerable.

Clifton Collins Jr., one of America’s best character actors, is far more believable in his role as a filthy, devious lawman. Casey Affleck proves once again that he is the better actor in the family. (Why didn’t they cast him in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice?) When Harrelson smokes a joint, drinks booze or snorts drugs, you never question his commitment—to the character. Aaron Paul as the weak-minded, low-life, prostitute-using Gabe and Luis Da Silva Jr. as the skinny, but deadly gang leader Pinto give the most invisible portrayals. You know they’re actors, but their characters seem like they were fished out of the gutter.

In the beginning the boys seem like they are committing a simple, but elaborately planned crime. As the film progresses, it is obvious that they have entangled themselves in a bigger, more powerful web than they perceived. That’s when you move from the back of your seat to the edge, as the noose around their necks tightens.

The solid direction, storytelling and acting by Hillcoat, Cook and the cast don’t reinvent the crime thriller genre. They just add to the trove.

Making History: Rap music legend Dr. Dre is all set to headline in Apple’s first original television show. The Beats Music co-founder, which Apple bought nearly two years ago in a deal

valued at $3 billion, will star in and produce “Vital Signs,” a six-episode series the report described as a semi-autobiographical “dark drama with no shortage of violence and sex.” Financial backing for the series is being provided by Apple, but it remained unclear what roles

Apple Music, Apple TV, the iTunes stores and the California companies’ other resources would play when it comes to digitally delivering the show, according to the report. Apple in mid-2014 closed its deal for Beats, the high-end audio equipment and streaming music service. Apple’s biggest-ever acquisition also bring onboard the talent of Beats brains and co-founders Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine. The television series project evidently originated with Dr. Dre, who conceived the idea and pitched it directly to partner Iovine.

All Def Movie Awards: In response to the lack of Black Oscar nominees, Def Jam co-founder Russell Simmons has announced that he’s launching his own movie awards show. It’s set to debut just four days before the Academy Awards. Simmons’ All Def Movie Awards “will see “Beasts of No Nation,” “Chi-Raq,” “Concussion,” “Creed,” “Dope,” and “Straight Outta Compton” compete for the best picture award.” Other awards will honor Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Director, as well as Best Bad Muh F**ka, Best Helpful White Person and Best Black

Survivor in a Movie. The awards will be recognized by members of the All Def Academy, and members of the public can vote online for two categories – Best Picture and Most Quoted Movie – through midnight on Feb. 23. “The All Def Movie Awards are not the Black Oscars,” Simmons said in a statement, “But they could be. This will be a fun, entertaining

Dr. Dre

Damon Wayans

and hopefully thought-provoking celebration of the uncelebrated.” The ceremony is set for February 24 in Hollywood at the Mann’s Chinese theater. Tony Rock, (Chris Rock’s younger brother), will host the event, which will feature a Black Carpet for celebrity presenters, arrivals and VIP guests. The All Def Movie Awards will be programmed as part of All Def Comedy Live, and admission to the show is by invitation only, with a select number of seats reserved for fans by lottery. “I don’t expect a 90-year-old Academy member to see ‘Straight Outta Compton’ or vote for it. I’m more concerned that in 2016 there continues to be a stunning lack of diversity in the studios, in the green light process, in the decisions of what films and television series get made, and what actors get chosen. This needs to be addressed institutionally,” said Russell Simmons. According to The Wrap, the All Def Movie

Awards will also feature a special live musical performance and a steady stream of “video content before, during and after the show on all of ADD’s social channels,

including Facebook, YouTube, Snapchat and Periscope.”

Briefly: DMX is out of the hospital after collapsing in the parking lot of a Yonkers, N.Y., hotel his attorney said. The 45-year-old rapper, real name Earl Simmons, didn’t have a pulse when authorities arrived, police said. Murray Richman, DMX’s lawyer, told the AP that although he didn’t know why his client stopped breathing, the performer does suffer from asthma…. Fox has ordered its Lethal Weapon TV remake to pilot with Damon Wayans as your new Roger Murtaugh. Danny Glover played the part in the original movies.

Finally: Toni Braxton and Babyface’s 2014 studio album titled “Love, Marriage & Divorce” will have a follow up project. The album spawned the #1 hit, “Hurt You,” and earned the duo a Grammy Award in 2015. The two artists subsequently toured together. Braxton revealed recording is not in progress but the two are talking “details.”

Broncos Pull Off 73-69 Overtime Win

Top-notch defense down the stretch lifted the nationally-ranked Cal Poly Pomona men’s basketball team to a 73-69 overtime victory over Cal State East Bay over the weekend at Kellogg Arena.

In overtime, the Broncos’

defense limited the Pioneers to just one point in the final 100 seconds. Meanwhile, CPP knocked down five free throws to pull away for the four-point win.

The victory improves the Broncos to a 12-5 mark thus far in the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) en route to their season tally of 19-5. The Pioneers record on the 2015-16 season falls to an overall 8-16 mark, complete with a 4-12 mark in conference play.

Jordan Faison led the Broncos’ offense with 20 points on an 8-for-15 performance complete with a three and three good shots from beyond the arc. He also tallied eight rebounds in the contest, three blocks and four steals.

Also reaching the double-digit point mark in the game was Jordan Ogundiran. His 12-point performance came with three good shots from the field and six free throws. He tallied eight assists in the contest as well.

The first half saw the home town Broncos’ squad with a couple of impressive runs, each tallying nine points. The visitors to Kellogg Arena opened off scoring in the contest with a layup, but Faison answered back with one of his own. A three pointer gave

the Pioneers another lead, but CPP then went on its first nine-point streak.

Even scoring was what fans in the next few minutes saw, then the Broncos, with the score at 19-15 in their favor, would go on their second nine-pointer. At the halftime break, the Broncos led the Pioneers 32-20.

The second half began with a strong showing from CPP’s opposition. CSUEB went on an 18-4 run to take the lead for the first time since the game’s opening minutes. The Pioneers continued to fend off the Broncos for much of the second half, scoring each time the Broncos did to maintain the advantage.

CPP regained the lead with just over a minute to play after a layup from Bell and a subsequent point after boosted them above the Pioneers 57-56. The final minute in the contest was tense, but CSUEB scored once more than the Broncos and sent the game to overtime with the regulation score ending at 59-59.

The Broncos won the overtime tip and immediately Dennis proceeded to score with a layup. A back-and-forth game would go from there as each time the Broncos’ offense scored, the visitors would answer back. The final points for the Broncos however would be four-straight free throws to take the 73-69 lead.

CPP team will take to the road next week for the final road trip of the regular season. They will head north to challenge the Chico State Wildcats and the Stanislaus State Warriors. The game against Chico will be televised by ESPN3 and will take place at 7:30 p.m. on February 19.

Women’s BasketballThe Cal Poly Pomona

women’s basketball team was defeated recently as they fell to the Cal State East Bay Pioneers at Kellogg Arena. The Pioneers are currently ranked sixth in the West Region and topped the Broncos 54-39.

The loss for CPP dropped their record to 9-15 thus far this season. Their tally is complete with a 7-10 mark in

the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA). The Pioneers, who are tied for second with a 15-2 record in conference play have recorded a season tally of 20-3.

CPP’s offense struggled to hit its mark in the game as the Broncos sank just 21.4% of their shots taken. The scoring leader was Mary Williams, who sank a game-leading 12-of-13 from the free throw line to reach a total of 14 points. She also added six rebounds.

The Green and Gold offense was led in the efficiency category by Priscilla Brooks. The sophomore led the team with 4-of-6 shots made and eight points of her own.

Each member of the CPP squad secured at least one rebound in the game, and the Broncos pulled down 29 as a team.

The visitors to Kellogg Arena shot 41.3% from the field on a 19-for-46 showing complete with three baskets from beyond the arc and 13 free throws made. The Broncos outshot the opposition from the free throw line as they went 21-for-23.

The game consisted of a

number of runs for the East Bay squad. After the Broncos scored first with a Brooks layup, CSUEB answered back with a pair of free throws of their own. CPP then scored three points to take their largest lead of the contest.

After CPP’s lead, the Pioneers’ offense outscored the Broncos 11-4 to take the lead for the remainder of the first half.

In the second half the Green and Gold did tie it up at 23-23 with a free throw from Williams. The second half however was the half in which the Pioneers would run away with it. After taking a double-digit point advantage, they never led by fewer than 10 points again.

In the second half, CSUEB outscored the Broncos 33-23 to wrap up the final result at 54-39.

The CPP team will take to the road next week for the final road trip of the regular season. They will head north to challenge the Chico State Wildcats and the Stanislaus State Warriors. The game against Chico will be televised by ESPN3 and will take place at 5:30 p.m. on February 19.

For the second game in a row, a Highlander had a career-high scoring output in leading the team to victory. Just two nights removed from fellow John W. North alum Brittany Crain’s career night, Simone DeCoud poured in a career-high 24 points in a, 75-62, win at Cal Poly.

The UC Riverside Women’s Basketball team overcame a first half deficit to claim their 10th straight Big West conference victory.

Crain scored 11 straight Highlander points in the second period, after going scoreless in the first. DeCoud had 13 at the break, including nine in the opening period to help the Highlanders maintain striking distance.

UCR (17-7, 10-0) trailed 36-33 after two quarters played. They got 26 of their 33 points from Crain and DeCoud, who had 13 apiece.

Cal Poly (11-13, 4-7) led the entire first half and UCR’s first lead was at 45-44 early in the third.

With the score 50-48 near the end of the third, DeCoud stole the ball in backcourt, dribbled to the corner and knocked down a three to put the Highlanders ahead. The

Mustangs would answer with a three of their own to reclaim the lead, and on the last play of the quarter DeCoud dribbled into space to knock down a jumper, but landed on a Cal Poly defender’s foot.

D e C o u d would remain on the floor in pain as the third period buzzer sounded with the Highlanders leading, 52-51.

Rejane Verin, who picked up two quick fouls in the first minutes of the game, had her sixth double

double of the season heading into the final frame with 11 points, 10 rebounds.

Coyotes Scores 8 in First Inning For 8-6 Win

The Coyotes wasted little time recently against Texas-Permian Basin, scoring eight runs in the opening frame and earning a 8-6 victory in non-conference play at UC San Diego.

CSUSB, now 4-7 overall, play four games in three days in Lancaster, beginning Wednesday afternoon against the University of British Columbia.

The Coyotes sent 14 batters to the plate and came through with seven hits.

Damion Edmonds, Grant Buchanan, Brian Lockey all reached base on singles, with Lockey earning a two-run shot up the middle for a 2-0 lead.

After Austin Lundeen and

Daniel Romo reached on walks, Ryan Rich singled up the middle to score Lundeen. William

Ouellette followed with a two-run single down the left-field line and CSUSB led 5-0.

Jordan Simon added a fielder’s choice that scored Rich, and Edmonds earned an RBI with

a single to center and the Coyotes padded the lead to 7-0. They stretched the lead to 8-0 when Simon scored on Lundeen’s single to short.

That eight-run lead held up as UTPB pecked away with two runs in the thid, one in the fourth and seventh and two in the ninth.

Noah Simon earned the start and went 3 2/3 innings with a strikeout and allowed six hits with three runs (two earned).

Joshua Murtha (2-1) earned the win with 2 1/3 innings of scoreless relief. He allowed two hits.

Buchanan led with three hits and Edmonds had two. All nine CSUSB hits were singles.

Men’s BasketballThe Coyotes gave a

complete effort against nationally-ranked Chico State recently and pushed the Wildcats into overtime.

Chico State, though, gained the upper hand in

the extra period, scoring the first 10 points of OT and defeated the Coyotes 91-79 at Coussoulis Arena.

J u a n Martinez led the Coyotes (8-13, 5-12 CCAA) with 19 points and three others scored in double figures in a quality game played by both teams. Desi Barmore added 14, while Darryl Adigwu had 12 and Everett Turner 10.

CSUSB shot 49.2 percent for the game, but the Wildcats (20-3, 14-2) were better from the field, hitting 54.2 percent

with 13 3-pointers.The game featured 11 ties

and 13 lead changes and the

favored Wildcats never led by more than four during regulation. Meanwhile, the Coyotes created momentum early in the second half, thanks to a 12-3 run that gave them their largest lead of the game at 41-34 with 16:26 left.

But the Wildcats crept back and the game was tied four more times until they forged ahead with a four-point lead (72-68) with 53 seconds left on a Corey Silverstrom layup.

Martinez answered with a three-pointer, and on Chico’s next possession, its leading scorer Robert Duncan went to the line on a two-shot foul. He hit the first, but the second rimmed out and the Coyotes had a shot to go for the win or force OT.

tTurner attempted a three that was off, but teammate Zeke DeBlase grabbed the rebound and fed the ball back to Turner, who was fouled.

He hit both free throws to tie the game at 73-73 with five seconds left, and the game went into extra time after the Wildcats’ Jalen McFerren’s 3 was off before the buzzer.

The Wildcats then showed why they are the conference’s leader, hitting 10 straight points, capped by successive threes by Tyler Harris and McFerrin.

Silverstrom led the Wildcats with 25 points including seven 3s and Duncan hit 18.

Adigwu led with eight rebounds, while Keith Smith and DeBlase each had six assists.

The Coyotes are at Cal State San Marcos on Saturday, February 20 for their only game of the week.

Basketball Team got a 25-point, 10-rebound performance out of Taylor Johns recently, but it wasn’t enough as the Highlanders dropped an 86-78 decision to visiting Cal Poly.

The Highlanders (13-14, 4-7) scored the first seven points of the game, but the Mustangs netted 11 of the next 15 to tie the score at 11. UCR quickly regained the lead, but an 8-0 run late in the first put Cal Poly (9-15, 3-8) on top for good.

disease that may go unnoticed. She received the heart transplant in 2008.

Nutritionist and educator Robin Allen is founder of The Necessary

Nutrition Academy, which seeks to inspire individuals to incorporate food and nutrition in the fight against obesity, illness, and disease. Changing mindsets about health and nutrition are a necessity. The food eaten can heal or it can kill was the sage advice Ms. Allen imparted.

Angela Alexander spoke to the spirits and souls from her life experience of having lost two sons in a tragic accident while stationed in Japan with the

United States Air Force. When she did not have the strength to make it through another minute, a strength outside of her entered, sustained her and enabled s her family to continue living, not just surviving from day to day. Through tragedy and despair, Alexander discovered experientially that the Divine One is definitely “Able to keep us in all of our ways”. Her topic was, “Tools for Empowerment.”

Dr. Joseph A. Bailey II, MD spoke on the topic “Ask Your Doctor & Heart Disease Does Not Discriminate.”

He has acquired a plethora of information that impart information to African American

people, the diseases physical, mental and emotional that impact us, and what we can do to alleviate these chronic negative trendsetting acts and impulses.

Hearts of Color was founded by Joyce Fairman after a near death experience from cardiac problems. She uses the platform to disseminate quality information to people of color about changing the statistics where we lead in death rates, disabilities, and the attendant side effects.

Hearts of Color will be hosting other events throughout the year to help residents make wise choices in nutrition, exercise and lifestyles.
