Nationwide movement for a living wage strikes Milwaukee

Fast food workers in Milwaukee walk off the job, call for wage increase, right to a union without retaliation

Inspired by recent workplace actions in New York City, Chicago, St. Louis and Detroit, low-wage workers in Milwaukee joined the nationwide movement for a living wage Wednesday, May 15, 2013, by walking off the job. Workers are calling for a wage increase and the right to form a union free from employer harassment or retaliation. Hundreds of workers walked off the job at places like Wendy’s, Burger King, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, Old Country Buffet and Popeye’s. Workers were joined by community supporters and religious groups throughout the day and marched from the Milwaukee County Courthouse to downtown Milwaukee at 4:30 p.m. “The Wisconsin State AFL-CIO is proud to stand in solidarity with striking fast food workers whose actions are calling attention to income inequality, worker exploitation, and the right to

Many low wage workers and their supporters convened at Mt. Zion Baptist Church, 2207 N. 2nd Street, on Wednesday afternoon to discuss strategy over their workplace actions before going to the Milwaukee County Courthouse and later to the Grand Avenue Mall for a huge demonstration. The workers are calling attention to income inequality and the right to better wages. a living wage and to a union,” said Phil Neuenfeldt, President of the Wisconsin State AFL-CIO. “The economy is bouncing back but workers are not seeing their fair share of the economic gains. We’re here to say ‘raise up the wage’ -a living wage helps the entire community by solidifying the middle class and creating a virtuous cycle of growth.” “Many low-wage workers are forced to hold down multiple jobs in an attempt to feed their families and often rely on

Legislature passes bill to cut budget of Milwaukee County Board State lawmakers Tuesday, May 14, 2013 completed action on a bill to cut the power and budget of the Milwaukee County Board and to hold a referendum next year on cutting supervisor pay. Gov. Scott Walker, a former Milwaukee County executive, has said he supports the legislation. The state-imposed change is necessary, according to its backers, because of ongoing problems with county finances and the County Board's unwillingness to adopt reforms that have been recommended by several studies over the past decade. The board, however, last month adopted a similar reform plan, but with lesser cuts to its budget and pay. The bill, approved by the Senate on a 19-14 vote and ratified by the Assembly on a voice vote, would cut the board's budget by two-thirds and limit supervisors' role in contracts, labor negotiations and land sales. It also would effectively convert the job of supervisor to part time beginning in 2016, if voters approve a pay cut of 50 percent to about $24,000 in an April 2014 referendum. Supervisor terms also would be reduced from four to two years, beginning in 2016, under the legislation. An amendment approved by the Senate modifies the spending limit for the board's budget and would shift four County Board research analysts to the independently elected county comptroller's staff. It also would shift just one rather than both County Board lobbyists to the control of the county executive. That improved the legislation, said County Board Chairwoman Marina Dimitrijevic. But she said she'll confer with lawyers about the provisions, and didn't

The Milwaukee County Board

"Milwaukee County is being picked on…" -Sen. Tim Carpenter rule out taking legal action to block the law. "I need to have some serious conversations with our legal counsel, because I'm not sure of that," Dimitrijevic said. Supervisor John Weishan Jr. raised the issue of the reform law's legality last week, questioning whether its separate treatment for Milwaukee County on budget and other matters violated the state constitution's uniformity clause. The Senate approved the bill late Tuesday, after a lengthy delay while lawmakers huddled just off the Senate floor. All 18 Republican senators plus one Democrat - Lena Taylor of Milwaukee voted for the bill. A series of amendments by Democratic

lawmakers all were rejected. The bill has the backing of County Executive Chris Abele, the Greater Milwaukee Committee and local business groups. They have argued that supervisors meddle in day-to-day county operations. That would be curbed under the legislation, which restricts direct supervisor contacts with county department heads. Opponents have said the legislation's hidden agenda is to yield control of county parks or other assets to business interests, some calling it an attempted power grab by Abele. He has countered that supervisors would retain their voice on the county budget and other official decisions. The board's own reform plan calls for cutting its budget and staff by 50 percent, trimming supervisor pay by $10,000 to about $40,000 a year, and requiring supervisors to get training every other year on their proper role. Hundreds of people who attended County Board town hall meetings over the

past few months said they preferred reforms done locally, not by the state, according to Dimitrijevic. 'Being picked on' Sen. Tim Carpenter (DMilwaukee) said the Milwaukee County Board legislation was another in a list of antiMilwaukee measures working their way through the Legislature. "Milwaukee County is being picked on," Carpenter said. "In Milwaukee, we are really feeling under siege." Other legislation affecting the area includes budget bill provisions restricting local residency requirements and one aimed at hobbling a streetcar project for the city. Carpenter also suggested that Abele and local business interests want the County Board restrictions in order to pave the way for use of vacant county-owned Park East Freeway parcels for a new arena for the Milwaukee Bucks. Because of the push for curbing the Milwaukee County Board, he and other legislators will resist future

Being Frank

By Frank James IV

Extended holiday Mother's Day has passed. The love shown to all females on May 12th is quickly dwindling. On Mother's Day all females are looked upon with respect, even those who aren’t mothers. This love and respect is something every woman needs in order to be a woman. So let’s extend Mother's Day for a year. On Mother's Day even the worst child calls or sends his Mother a card. This ceremony has become a standard in the USA. You hear stories of hardened criminals calling or visiting their mothers. On this day dead-beat dads have a toast to their estranged baby mama's. The USA seems to take a positive look at one aspect of womanhood and it makes all women feel special. The special feeling women have on Mother's Day is something that can be perpetrated throughout the year. Imagine if all women felt respected and appreciated throughout the year. What ramifications would this have on the American society? Could this respectful and loving atmosphere clean up some of the issues in all communities? Many feel low self-esteem

contributes to creating teen mothers. It is believed that a girl who has low self-esteem is more likely to become a teen parent. This may be true and if so how would prolong exposure to a warm loving atmosphere affect this situation? If the respect for women shown on Mother's Day carried throughout the year this dilemma would vanish. How would this new paradigm affect relationships? In many relationships the woman has become both victim and aggressor. Many men complain that women are nags or leeches. On the other hand, many women have no confidence in men and stride forward on their own. The hard working single mother is normal in the USA. But what if women felt more at ease in their lives? What it they felt more respected as a whole? What if women felt the love and respect given was just that, freely given not taken? Would so many marriages end up in divorce court? Some strands of psychology state that anger towards others stems from insecurities with oneself. If this is true then the dysfunction

shouldn’t be just for a select group of women. This love should extend to all women. Even the hardest woman deserves to be treated with kindness and respect. If some women reject the love that’s cool too, because it will be around if they decide to change their mind later. An extended Mother's Day could change the plight of the USA. Even if the concept fails what would Americans have to lose, a few kind words or gestures?

many women in the USA exhibit towards men comes from their own mind’s shortcomings. If this were to be corrected how would this affect children? In many households mothers raise the children in reverse roles. This comes from the hard, bitter path many mothers have been on throughout life. The result is warrior women and housewife sons. In order for a woman to be a woman she needs to feel loved and secure. If these two things are given then she can form a view of herself that is positive. Many equate security with money but

The project’s first training group consists of eleven women and men refugees from Iraq, Ethiopia, and Eritrea. During a recent class, instructor Mamadou Guisse outlined accounting and record-keeping needed to satisfy state and county childcare business regulations. He showed participants tools they can use to monitor attendance, income and expenses, and other processes needed for a wellrun daycare. Guisse fielded questions from the engaged students through translators who were helping participants. Rula Ayoub, an Iraqi refugee who moved to the United States seven months ago, registered for the SDC program because she wants “to help her family become successful by starting a childcare business.” She said the coursework she and her classmates have gotten has been “terrific for us.” She stated, for example, that learning for the first time about the American tax system was eye-opening for her and fellow class participants. The microenterprise program works well for Ayoub because “I love children as well as teaching and interacting with them.” She notes that when the program class-

es end in mid-June, she will look at possibly opening her own licensed childcare business in her home. She added that she is recommending the program to anyone she meets as a way to become self-sufficient and contributing to the Milwaukee community. SDC is partnering with the Multicultural Entrepreneurial Institute, the Pan African Community Association, and the Office of Refugee Resettlement on the two-year project. It is being funded by the Wisconsin Administration for Children and Families.

This trend furthers income inequality in the United States and forces many families into poverty.

cated blacks in business and the professions that they are different than other blacks. The notion of a racial exceptional black stems from the ingrained, but terribly misplaced, belief that blacks are perennially disgruntled, hostile, and rebellious, and are always on the lookout for any real or perceived racial slight, and they ache to pick a fight over it. African Americans who don't fit this brash, outspoken, faintly threatening type have been touted, praised, even anointed over time by some as the reasoned voice of black America. This, however, doesn't negate the fact that a significant number, perhaps a majority of whites, do not reflexively associate the old crime, violence, and dereliction stereotypes with even the poorest, most downtrodden blacks. This in part reflects the fast racial changing demographics in America, an America that's well on its way to becoming a majority-minority country within the next few

decades. It's also in part due to a half century of change in law and public policy that has made any public expression of racism taboo. The penalty for crossing the line is an instant smack down of the offender. Ramsey then was a prime benefactor of the evolution of racial thinking in America -- an evolution that's a continuing work in progress. But it's an evolution that's in forward motion. The next step in that evolution is to reach the point when an African-American male such as Ramsey with all the top heavy baggage he carries does a good or better yet a bad deed and will not be the butt of endless debate about the role of race in his actions. He will be seen as just a good or bad man, hero or villain, without putting a racial notation in front of hero or villain. But for now Ramsey and his act and the overwhelming public defense of him stood racial stereotypes on their head. Earl Ofari Hutchinson is an author and political analyst.

By Rev. Judith T. Lester, B.Min. M.Th

Christianity 101: Salvation (conclusion)

In the final article in the series on Christianity 101, our focus will be redemption. Redemption (Hebrew: ge’ullah, Greek: lytrosis, apolytrosis, meaning to tear loose; a ransom) is a metaphor used in both Old and New Testaments to describe God’s merciful and costly action on behalf of His people (sinful human beings). The basic meaning of the word is release or freedom on payment of a price, deliverance by a costly method. When used of God, it does not suggest that He paid a price to anyone, but rather that His mercy required His almighty power and involved the greatest possible depth of suffering. Thus God redeemed Israel from Egypt by delivering the people from bondage and placing them in a new land (See Exodus 6:6;

15:13, Psalm 77:14-15) and God did this by His “mighty hand.” To appreciate the New Testament theme of redemption, the position of human beings as slaves of sin must be assumed. Thus they must be set free in order to become the liberated servants of the Lord. Mark 10:45 states: “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” The use of the metaphor of ransom does not require that the question, “To whom was the ransom paid?” be answered. The emphasis is on costly sacrifice, the giving of a life. Paul wrote of the “redemption that came by Christ Jesus” (Romans 3:24) and claimed that in Christ “we have redemption through his blood” (Ephesians 1:7). Through Christ, God has redeemed and forgiven us

from our sins. The picture we see is a man or woman being set free by the paying of a ransom. Jesus Christ has paid a price; He has paid the ransom for our freedom. (Source: Bible Reference Guide, Zondervan, p. 523). Why is redemption necessary? This question often comes from unbelievers as to why and from what we need to be redeemed. The answer was introduced last week – “SIN.” Sin enslaves,

blinds and binds. Mankind needed Jesus to offer Himself as a ransom. When a man or woman accepts Christ as their Savior, they are no longer blinded by sin but set free from the bondage of sin. The chorus of the hymn written by Elvina Hall in 1865 inspired by 1 Peter 1:18-19 sums up the premise of Salvation and Redemption: Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe;

Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow. Beloved, let me offer a final word. This month we presented just a handful of basic Christian beliefs as relates to God, the Holy Spirit, Salvation and concluding with a great spiritual blessing, Redemption. Remember, not only did Christ come to pay the price for our sins; He also set us free so that we may share this Good News with others.

On a visit to his home that he has lived in with his wife, First Lady Fannie (Pitchford) Smith for over 50 years, Rev. Smith invites me in to share his journey to finding his life’s calling. His beginnings He was one of five boys born in Lexington, MS, on January 26, 1922, on a cotton, corn, and pea farm, which belonged to his parents James Edward Smith and Mary Meckie Smith. One day in 1936, Walter Lee found his hope in Christ, became one of His children, and accepted Him as His personal Savior. Walter Lee met his high school sweetheart Fannie Pitchford at Ambrose Vocational H.S. in Mississippi. Before they moved to Milwaukee to live with her

Staff Sgt. Walter Lee Smith (then) family, Fannie taught Black children from kindergarten to 8th grade in Mississippi. They were married on April 26, 1944. Shortly thereafter, Walter Lee was drafted into the U.S. Army, went to Camp Lee in Virginia for basic training and served as a Staff Sergeant in the Philippines, North Korea and South Korea. Walter Lee was recently honored at the celebration for Veterans at Miller Park. Walter Lee came to Milwaukee because his inlaws asked him to come, so on March 23, 1947, he and his wife Fannie arrived during an intense snowstorm. I need to hear it from the Lord Himself But it wasn’t in Milwaukee where he got his calling; it was actually a series of events that led Walter Lee to the Lord and his life changed. The first sign was in 1957 when he was approached by people in their church and

D. Smith and Anthony D. Smith. Originally, he wanted a basketball team and he got that along with two cheerleaders. Additionally, they have 13 grandchildren, and 10 great-grand children.

“Ok Lord, whatever you want me to do, I’ll do it right now!” - Rev. Walter L. Smith elsewhere who said, “Walter, the Lord showed me and told me that you were a preacher, and that the Lord called you into the ministry.” And he replied, “The Lord told you?” “Yes!” They said, “The Lord told me and showed me.” And Walter said, “I know the Lord is not afraid of me. Why didn’t He tell me?” “You just didn’t heed to it,” they replied. And on that particular day, the Lord appeared to Walter Lee while in an accident in Marion, AR. He recalls the vivid story, “I was in an automobile accident and the Lord said, “Look at ‘ya; I could have killed you, but I want you to live. Now go do what I want you to do.” And Walter Lee said, “Ok, Lord, whatever you want me to do, I’ll do it right now!” He then attended the National Baptist Convention, General Baptist State Convention. He recalls one very particular Sunday morning. Walter Lee was a member of the Tabernacle Community Baptist Church, and he was one of the deacons. “I was overcome by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Ghost got up in me, so I got up from where I was and went to the Pastor’s office to tell him about what happened. I said, “The Lord called me to preach.” And Pastor Williams said, “I knew it before you came in here. I’m gonna let you preach a trial sermon.” “I remember what I preached about,” Walter Lee told me and as he said it, he screamed, “Oh!” because he was so overcome by the Holy Spirit. He preached, “A letter of authority from the wrong authority.” As he gave his sermon, he was not nervous or excited, even though the church was packed and had an overflow up in the bal-

“We have a beautiful life and I love Milwaukee,” said Fannie Pitchford.

With his wife, First Lady Fannie Smith always by his side, Rev. Smith is one of the most highly regarded, highly respected pastors in the community. In fact, other members of other churches will often call on pastor Smith for scripture help, for prayers, for support. Over the years, the Reverend and his wife have enjoyed travelling together and in 1984, they went to the Holy Land, and while in Jerusalem he baptized people in the Jordan River. Rev. Smith said, “The church is on the same lines as when I was coming up, but in some ways it has changed. Back then we had a “mourner’s bench,” and you would confess your hope in Christ and you would be endowed by the power of God with the Holy Spirit. Today, my message is the same: Jesus “The church is on the Christ is the same today as yesterday. You still get all same lines as when I was kinds of people that come down to church today the coming up, but in some same as yesterday, but the person changes.” A family that prays toways it has changed.” gether, stays together - Rev.

obedient and he tells us even now, ‘One of these days I’m going to let you grow up to be a man or a woman, but until then…’ and they all smiled." His daughter Pamela said, “When we came home from school, dinner was on the table and we all ate together. We had prayer service and bible study together and this is where we got our foundation.” She continued, “He’s the best dad in the world: sweet, understanding, and he’ll do anything he can for you and for everybody else. A lot of people call him dad, because he’s there for them.” A testament to his family is this: All the children are members of Newport Missionary Baptist Church, he pastored all of them. Rev. Smith’s sons are his assistants, conducting service at the church and they oversee different programs in administration. They serve on deacon board, usher board, there are three preachers and one deacon and three missionary, and a son-in-law who is a pastor, an executive secretary and a choir president. At 91 years old, Reverend Walter Lee Smith is still pastoring. To hear one of his compelling sermons, attend Newport Missionary Baptist Church, located at 2237 North 11th Street, Milwaukee, WI, on Sunday for their morning worship at 11 a.m.

Bradley Tech student-built motorcycle, Gaenslen student-built solar mini-car in action Projects among 25 from 20 MPS schools at this year’s MPS STEM Partners Spring Student Showcase A motorcycle built by students at Milwaukee Public Schools’ Bradley Technology and Trade School and a solar mini-car made by students at MPS’ Gaenslen School are among more than two dozen projects that were in action Tuesday, May 7, 2013 at the MPS Science/Technology/ Engineering/Math (STEM) Partners Spring Student Showcase. The Bradley Tech students’ motorcycle is part of the BUILD project that promotes the hands-on experience of re-manufacturing vintage motorcycles into modern racing machines. Founded by The Iron Horse Hotel in 2011, BUILD is a non-profit organization pairing high school students with bike-building mentors in an effort to learn valuable trade, design and life skills. Gaenslen’s solar mini-car was designed in part by students – a 5th grader, two 7th graders and one 8th grader. Much of the project was made using a 3D printer and the students’ effort beat out dozens of entries from Wisconsin and Illinois to take first place at a University of Wisconsin engineering expo. Other projects in action included Riverside University High School’s robotics demonstration, a “medical detectives” project from Escuela Vieau and Harold S. Vincent High School’s urban agriculture/landscape design project. “This is an outstanding showcase allowing our teachers and students to exhibit some of the exciting STEM projects they’ve been working on during the year,” said Eric Radomski, MPS’ Coordinator of Career and Technical Education. “At the same time, it provides us a wonderful opportunity to deepen and expand our business and community partnerships to further enhance the STEM education we provide.” STEM education in Milwaukee Public Schools includes Project Lead the Way, a rigorous, innovative program helping students learn STEM through hands-on projects and activities. With 5,500 middle- and highschool students involved, MPS has the nation’s largest concentration of students connected to Project Lead the Way. Nearly half of the MPS students (45 percent) who take part are female and roughly 85 percent are students of color. Project Lead the Way is part of MPS’ Career and

Talking Health with Dr. Carter

By Dr. Lester Carter Owner, Carter Drug Store

Bee well: Health from the hive (part 4) When we think bees, most of us think of honey. For millennia, people have enjoyed honey's sweetness and other benefits. What is little known is that the hive is the source of three more health enhancing substances. These are pollen, propolis, and royal jelly. This week we discuss the benefits of royal jelly and how it can support your health. Royal jelly is a milky white glandular secretion made by nurse worker bees and fed to the queen bee. For several days, all bee larvae are fed royal jelly. From the fourth day, only the queen candidates continue to receive the royal diet. The queen eats this food throughout her life. She grows to a size nearly twice that of the workers, and lays from 2,000 to 2,400 eggs per day for the remainder of her long life. That's right. The queen lives four to five years as compared to the 40-50 day life span of the worker bee. It is this latter phenomenon that has made royal jelly (RJ) so fascinating to humans. Recent research has revealed that RJ contains a spe-

cial protein called royalactin that causes a modification of DNA, resulting in the development of the queen. Studies have not specifically investigated the effects of royalactin on human health. Researchers use the entire royal jelly complex, which is rich in protein, loaded with B vitamins, particularly pantothenic acid, and many other nutrients, including acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter. Until the discovery of this last component, the energy, mental alertness, and general feeling of well-being people experienced was attributed solely to RJ's B vitamin content. Royal jelly is the only known natural source for acetylcholine. Generally, those who are looking for a brain booster take phosphatidyl choline, which becomes acetylcholine in the brain, spinal cord, and various areas of the nervous system where it regulates memory and transmits nerve messages. According to the online Apitherapy Review, optimal levels of acetylcholine are associated with improved memory, fluidity of thought, and en-

hanced cognitive function. (http:/ /apitherapy.blogspot. com- Search royal jelly.) Over the last few years, researchers have looked at many applications of royal jelly to health using laboratory animals. One of these is Alzheimer's disease. A study in Advanced Biomedical Research (20 12, 1 :26) was designed to examine the effect of RJ on spatial learning and memory. Rats with induced AD that consumed RJ-containing food performed better than those not receiving the RJ food. Among other studies

Many parents give kids cold medicines when they shouldn’t, survey finds tails are often on the back of the box, in small print. That’s where parents and caregivers can find instructions that they should not be used in children under 4 years old.” Parents need to read cough and cold medication labels carefully and should always call their child’s doctor if they have questions about over-the-counter medicines, Davis urged. according to the University of Michigan C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll on Children’s Health. The survey included 498 parents of children aged 3 and under. Children can get five to 10 colds a year, so parents often turn to over-the-counter cough and cold medicines to relieve their child’s symptoms. But that can be dangerous, the study authors stressed. “Products like these may work for adults, and parents think it could help their children as well. But what’s good for adults is not always good for children,” survey director Dr. Matthew Davis said in a university news release. Davis said parents can be confused by the fact that many of “these products are labeled prominently as ‘children’s’ medications. The de-

They often miss fine print on the label warning against use in children younger than 4 years old. More than 40 percent of American parents give overthe-counter cough and cold medicines to kids under age 4 even though they’re too young for such products, a new survey finds. In young children, these medicines can cause allergic reactions, increased or uneven heart rate, slow and shallow breathing, confusion or hallucinations, drowsiness or sleeplessness, convulsions, nausea and constipation. Since 2008, labels on cough and cold medicines have warned that they should not be given to children under age 4. The use of cough and cold medicines in children in that age group did not differ by parent gender, race/ethnicity or household income,

Many U.S. teens struggle with extreme fatigue Problem often goes hand-in-hand with emotional disorders like depression, expert says Extreme fatigue is common in U.S. teens and often goes untreated, a new study finds. Researchers surveyed more than 10,000 teens, aged 13 to 18, and found that 3 percent reported having extreme fatigue that had lasted at least three months and was not relieved by rest. Half of the teens with extreme fatigue also had depression or an anxiety disorder. More than half of those with long-term fatigue said they experienced severe or very severe problems in school, family or social situations, according to the study, which was published in the May issue of the American Journal of Psychiatry. Only 14 percent of teens with long-term fatigue alone received any type of treatment for emotional or behav-

ioral symptoms in the previous year, the survey found. Those with depression or an anxiety disorder in addition to long-term fatigue were more likely to have received care than those with fatigue only or with depression or an anxiety disorder only.

"Also, teens with a depressive or anxiety disorder plus persistent fatigue appear to be sicker than those without fatigue."

Living near a major road may result in reduced kidney function, which could, in turn, increase people's risk for heart attack and stroke, according to a new study. The study, published online May 13 in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, involved more than 1,100 adults who were admitted to a Boston-area hospital after suffering a stroke between 1999 and 2004. Half of the participants lived within three-fifths of a mile of a major road. The rest lived up to six miles away. Each patient underwent two tests to measure how well their kidneys were working.

product of muscle metabolism. Their glomerular filtration rate, which shows how well creatinine is filtered out of the body by the kidneys, also was analyzed. A low filtration rate indicates worse kidney function. Patients who lived closest to a busy road had the lowest glomerular filtration rate, after their age, sex, race, smoking status, and previous treatment for heart disease or other underlying conditions were taken into account, according to a journal news release. Although the study tied living near heavy traffic to possible harm to kidney function, it did not establish a cause-and-effect relationship. "If causal, these results imply that exposures associated with living near a major roadway contribute to reduced renal function, an important risk factor for cardiovascular events," wrote Dr. Murray Mittleman, of the cardiovascular epidemiology research unit at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, and colleagues. Pollution caused by traffic can lead to the accumulation of arterial plaque and changes to peripheral arteries, the researchers said. The kidneys are very susceptible to the build-up of arterial plaque, they added. Impaired kidney function is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Therefore, the researchers suggested, living near a roadway with heavy traffic could contribute to negative effects of air pollution on heart health. The authors estimated that living very close to a major road was associated with a 4 percent higher rate of cardiovascular death and a 1 percent greater risk of death from any cause compared to the risk of people living at least a few miles away. "There is growing evidence that living near major roadways contributes to the incidence of vascular disease, and adverse prognosis among patients with prevalent cardiovascular disease," the researchers wrote.

Improving women's financial literacy, worldwide Are the 70 percent of the developing world's adult population with no formal bank account doomed to a life of economic uncertainty and financial illiteracy? If a woman's culture dictates that she should always put her family's financial needs ahead of her own, can she learn to set aside money for her own retirement without feeling guilty? These are just some of the complex issues raised at the seventh annual Financial Literacy and Education Summit hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and Visa Inc. Renowned U.S. and international financial experts and journalists led a lively discussion – and fielded Twitter questions from roughly 2,000 participants – around the theme, "Improving Women's Financial Literacy & Capabilities Globally." Fascinating details revealed include: Richard Cordray, Director of the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, noted that "a large majority of K-12 teachers say that personal finance should be taught in school, yet less than a third say they've taught lessons about money, and more than half feel unqualified to teach their state's financial literacy standards." Linah Mohohlo, Governor, Bank of Botswana, emphasized that it's not only important to teach women about money management, but also to teach them activities to avoid – such as Ponzi schemes or lending money to people without setting repayment and interest terms. Bernie Ripoll, Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasurer, Australia, added that women should feel empowered to ask questions or say no if they're asked to invest in something they don't understand. According to South African financial journalist Maya Fischer-French, among the biggest financial hurdles an overwhelming number of women in her country face is their status as single mothers – around 56 percent. Of those, only about 21 percent can rely on financial help from their children's fathers. On the question of whether financial literacy hinges on access to traditional bank accounts, Egyptian journalist Amira Salah-Ahmend said roughly 90 percent of the Egyptian population is unbanked, meaning most of their transactions are unregulated and therefore more

risky. Mexican journalist Adina Chelminsky added that many third-world people have much easier access to credit through informal lending channels than to bank products. "The idea is not to formalize all this informal lending, but rather for banks and governments to think outside the box and develop new products that cater to women who have minimal savings," she said. The panelists shared some alternative financing methods that are already in place

and thriving: Microfinance, where organizations like Kiva make small loans to people who can't get credit from traditional banks, is helping women achieve financial stability in many underdeveloped

nations. For example, a young woman in Pakistan or Mexico can now take out a microloan to buy a sewing machine, thereby creating her own thriving business. Also in Pakistan, a large telecommunications company has partnered with a microfinancer to provide "branchless banking" via mobile phone technology to people far removed from banks. "We've got 45,000 agents transacting this kind of business now compared to only 13,000 in the branch network," explained Yas-

een Anwar, Governor, State Bank of Pakistan. Bottom line: Women throughout the world face unique economic and financial literacy challenges. The key is for governments, financial institutions, educators and entrepreneurs to work together to devise financial tools and educational materials that can reach the female half of the world's population – the younger, the better.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Happening?

Homecoming, Memorial, Friends and Family Day observed at True Heart

Staff Photos

True Heart Missionary Baptist Church, 4300 W. Villard Avenue, extended an invitation to anyone who was or is currently a member of the church to come and worship and participate in the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual Family and Friends, Homecoming, Memorial, and Friends Day held on Sunday, April 21, 2013. During the morning service, the names of all deceased individuals were read aloud. States represented this

year included: Wisconsin, Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi. The delegates from each state taunted delegates from another state jokingly and in a funny way, which evoked much laughter and fanfare during the afternoon program. The event also served as a fundraiser for the church. The Arkansas delegates raised the largest amount of money this year. Rev. Robert McFarland is pastor.
