On May 17, 1954, the United States Supreme Court handed down a unanimous decision on Brown v. the Board of Education, a case which established that creating separate public schools for black and white students was unconstitutional. That verdict galvanized a people. In the mid-20th century, the battle for equal rights under the law became an idea that unified us as never before. Blacks had a strong sense of destiny. It was a time fraught with challenge, and at times peril, but we did not back down. We marched in the streets, we stood vigil over lunch counters and school house steps, and we fought for an unlikely dream that within the span of a decade became a reality with the Civil Rights Act of 1964. In the 50’s and 60’s, it was clear what we were fighting for; and each individual stood to benefit from the movement. Today the fight for education equality should be no less real, no less relevant. Nineteenth century American education reformer, Horace Mann, once said that ‘education…is the great equalizer’. If that’s so, then we’ve lost ground as we’ve moved into the 21st century. Education should be our ‘great equalizer’ and yet many seem to be unaware that our children are struggling to even graduate from high school. In 2011, the Annie E. Casey Foundation produced Double Jeopardy, a report on how third-grade reading skills and poverty affect high school graduation. The report found that Black children who live in poverty and in communities with poorly performing schools are twice as likely not to graduate from high school as white children with similar reading proficiency challenges. Blacks make up only 13 percent of the U.S. population yet Black children represent 30% of those who do not graduate from high school in this country. In some ways, this leaves us almost worse off than in the segregated education system of the 1950’s. While African Americans may no longer be forced to live in inner-city neighborhoods by segregation, an inordinate number of African-American children live in the grinding cycle of poverty. Fortunately, many of our elders remain in these communities, and like many of them did during the first major civil rights battle, they continue their fight--this time for our children. They are our community caretakers, keeping body and soul together by volunteering in churches, community centers, libraries and schools. Their sense of civic duty has been unwavering, showing the same level of commitment and sacrifice that they did during the fight for civil rights. As the CEO and VP for AARP Experience Corps, I see this first hand. Nearly 60% of the in-classroom reading tutors who volunteer for us are African American, with an average age of 70. They are steadfast in their desire to share the gift of reading with generations to come. But they can’t do it alone.

Our schools need more funding, more innovative programing, more hope and more dreams. It’s only through our collective voices, working together, that this 21st century civil rights challenge will be answered.

When it comes to looking good, staying on top of your game, and making sure your pursuit of beauty is on point, you know the African-American community has that covered. Nielsen’s latest insights highlight hair and skin beauty purchases and behavior, by the numbers among African-Americans and other ethnic groups in the U.S. and Canada in a recent NielsenWire Post titled Looking Good: Appealing to Ethnic Consumers in the Beauty Aisle. Ladies, I’m talking to all of us here. Whether we wear our lovely tresses straight, in locks, curled or rock a natural, cute afro-puff – God-given or store-bought – we all want to make sure we look presentable and feel good about ourselves, and will spend our last dime to do so. And, no, even though we usually think of women when we talk about hair care and beauty, women don’t corner the market on giving attention to good looks. You’ve likely heard the word, metrosexual, coined about 10 years ago to describe men who pay attention to the way they look. It’s ok to ‘fess up, guys. And, I think most women appreciate a man who takes care of himself in this department, right ladies? As African-American consumers, we are 43 million strong, representing just under 14 percent of the population, and we spend over 900 percent more on ethnic hair and beauty products than any other ethnic group in the U.S. More and more companies are beginning to pay attention. Have you noticed the increase of non-ethnic brands that now offer a “natural” hair care line? We also pay close attention to our skin, according the post. African-American consumers purchase skin bleaching products at a rate of a whopping 434 percent more than the general population. And before you jump to conclusions, this isn’t necessarily about reinventing ourselves. This is primarily about erasing blemishes, lightening age spots or even out skin tones. We purchase more hand lotion, body lotion and all-purpose skin creams than the general population: 54 percent and 40 percent respectively. We are 58 percent less likely to purchase suntan preparations or sunscreens and sunblock products. Here’s an instance where there are opportunities for marketers in some of these categories because there is opportunity for market growth, particularly in the suntan preparations category I have girlfriends who slather themselves with baby oil before baking in the sun – unprotected. Most of us now know (but still may ignore) that Blacks are not immune to sun damage – and that all skin can burn – this could be an opportunity for a wide-reaching education campaign for the companies that manufacture sunscreens and sunblocks. (Even if you’re not afraid of sunburn or skin cancer, what about premature wrinkling or skin that could turn to a consistency that feels like leather from years of over-exposure? I’m just saying). As a matter of fact, now I can get a tan

right in my bathroom –without even being exposed to sunlight. I use gradual tanning lotions which have SPF already included. This way, I can protect my skin and have the luxurious bronzing color highlights that I want. So, you see, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. It is imperative that you choose companies who have your best interests, needs front and center. You’ve got to make sure you have nothing but the best with you on your pursuit of beauty. Please take this into consideration the next time you stroll down those beauty aisles. This time, you’ll just be better equipped with additional knowledge in tow. ### Cheryl Pearson-McNeil is senior vice president of Public Affairs and Government Relations for Nielsen.
