ANNIVERSARY OF DR. KING’S ASSASSINATION

D

rawing on the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King. Jr., who was killed 49 years ago, thousands of workers, racial justice activists, elected officials and clergy waged marches, rallies, teachins and vigils Tuesday as two of the nation’s most powerful social movements united in a “Fight Racism, Raise Pay” protest that echoed across two-dozen cities.

The protests stretched from Boston to Chicago to Los Angeles, culminating

in a march by thousands on the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tenn., where Dr. King was killed April 4, 1968 while supporting striking black sanitation workers. The Rev. William J. Barber II, founder of the social justice movement Repairers of the Breach; Service Employees International Union President Mary Kay Henry, who has supported the Fight for $15 since the movement started nearly five years ago; and the Great Talladega College Tornado Marching Band led the march through

[WASHINGTON, D.C.] – U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) recently introduced the Police Training and Independent Review Act to help prevent police-involved deaths and encourage independent and impartial investigations into law enforcement officials’ use of deadly force. The legislation, introduced as a companion to identical House legislation drafted by Congressman Steve Cohen (D-TN) and Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice Congressman Lacy Clay (DMO), is supported by a broad coalition of more than 90 members of Congress as well as the NAACP. “The vast majority of our nation’s law enforcement officers do their best each day to protect and serve their communities but we’ve lost too many young men and women—from Chicago to Ferguson and around the nation—in tragic and preventable police-involved deaths,” said Senator Duckworth.

“Families like Laquan McDonald’s that have experienced heartbreak are no less deserving of justice than any other family, but too often they don’t get it. I’m proud to join Congressmen Cohen and Clay in offering this innovative approach to help ensure objective investigations of police-involved shootings while helping prevent them in the first place.”

The Police Training and Independent Review Act would create an incentive for states to eliminate the inherent conflict of interest that arises when local prosecutors are asked to investigate, and potentially prosecute, the same local police departments with whom they work so closely on a daily basis. The bill would encourage the use of independent prosecutors in cases where a civilian death or injury results from police use of deadly force. It would also encourage states to provide training to law enforcement on ethnic and racial diversity as well as best practices for working with members of the community who are disabled or mentally ill. Assigning cases of police-involved deaths to external and independent

downtown Memphis.

In downtown Chicago, hundreds rallied at Federal Plaza to honor Dr. King’s legacy and to send a clear message that they’re still fighting for the dream--$15 for Illinois and an end to racism. They also mounted protests over what they called, “Governor Rauner and President Trump’s, anti-worker and anti-union policies.”

Fast food workers, Black Lives Matter activists, and members of Fair Economy Illinois held a brief press conference and spoke out about the injustices they’re facing.

“This action is very personal for me and for my fellow fast food workers because most of us are Black and Latina workers” said Parrish Thomas, a worker at Popeye’s and KFC. “As a Black man, it’s inspiring to have seen Dr. King, another Black man, set the example for what’s right. It’s important to make his dream come true by keeping the fight alive today.”

Black Lives Matter Chicago’s role in the press conference and protest, proved how the movements for economic and racial justice are the same.

“Dr. King saw a common bond between the labor and civil rights movements and believed that union rights were fundamental to achieving racial justice” said Kofi Ademola, a BLM Chicago leader. “As King said in 1961, ‘the two most dynamic and cohesive liberal forces in the country are the labor movement and the Negro freedom movement. Together we can be

architects of democracy.’”

Fast food workers disrupted traffic as they marched in the street, carrying a huge black, red and white banner that read “Still Fighting For The Dream, End Racism, Raise Pay, $15 for Illinois”. A nearby McDonald’s was the next location where they chanted about the burger giant being a key player and leader of the economic and racial injustices workers are facing.

“48% of Black workers in Illinois would benefit from a $15 minimum wage.

“McDonald’s is a huge part of the reason we’re fighting this fight. They’re a billion dollar corporation that’s getting away with paying us low wages and forcing us to rely on government assistance” says Tarnerei Carter, a fast food worker at Domino’s. “When McDonald’s changes its greedy ways, then so will Domino’s and Popeye’s and KFC and every other fast food corporation. They are the reason we have to fight. And we’ll continue to fight as hard as we work.”

The group then marched to the Illinois

Policy Institute to hold it and Governor Rauner accountable for the policy proposals being created which protestors say, “destroy working class families in Illinois,” according to a released statement. Workers and activists blocked the entrance of the Koch Brothers funded institution and held signs that said “$15 for Illinois Families” and “No Black Liberation Without Living Wages”.

“The IPI and Governor Rauner propose that the state balance the budget by cutting the life-giving programs we know we need--which will make for strong neighborhoods, and a city that works for all” said Pastor Fred from One Northside. “They push policies that would strip workers of their union protections and lower wages for everybody.”

The marchers concluded the action with prayer, a spiritual hymn and left chanting “We’ll be back”. The evening continued at a Resist.Reimagine.Rebuild. Citywide Teach-in, that began with a moment of silence at 6:01 pm central—the precise moment Dr. King was shot April 4, 1968—and were joined in similar tributes by protesters all across the country.

“48% of Black workers in Illinois would benefit from a $15 minimum wage. That includes me. I am a Black worker, a Black woman, and a single Black mother” said Aiesha Meadows, a McDonald’s fast food worker. “Bogus policies put out by IPI and Governor Rauner destroy families like mine. And I’ll be going down to Springfield to make sure $15 for Illinois happens for us.”

Senator Duckworth & Reps. Cohen, Clay Introduce Police Training and Independent Review Act prosecutors was a key recommendation of President Obama’s Taskforce on 21st Century Policing.

“America received a wakeup call in Ferguson, Missouri,” said Congressman Cohen. “It received another in Staten Island, New York. It received yet another in Ohio, South Carolina, Illinois, Minnesota, Louisiana, Oklahoma and in my district in Memphis, Tennessee. Our nation faces sobering questions about the basic fairness of our criminal justice system. And we face sobering questions about race. These questions cannot be ignored. For too many, for too long, justice has seemed too lacking. This is why we’ve introduced the Police Training and Independent Review Act. Asking local prosecutors to investigate the same law enforcement officers with whom they work so closely is an inherent conflict of interest.

Even if the prosecutor does everything right, there is still a perception of unfairness. If we are serious about restoring a sense of trust between police and the communities they serve, we must remove this conflict immediately. We must also provide police with improved training to better help them protect us and protect themselves. I would like to thank Congressman Clay and Senator Duckworth for their partnership on this bill and tireless advocacy on these issues.”

“In the wake of Ferguson, MO; Staten Island, NY; Cleveland, OH; Sanford, FL, St. Paul, MN; Memphis, TN; North Charleston, SC; Baltimore, MD; and far too many other communities…the urgent need to require all police officers to receive specialized sensitivity training to help them deescalate volatile situations remains an urgent public safety priority,” said Congressman Clay.

“This bill would protect both police officers and the citizens they serve. I am proud to coauthor it with my good friend, Congressman Steve Cohen of Memphis, Tennessee and my bi-state colleague, Senator Tammy Duckworth of Illinois. Our legislation would require sensitivity training in the areas of race, ethnic bias, disabilities, and interactions with new immigrants. It would also establish incentives to encourage states to adopt new laws to require an independent prosecutor in all cases when police use deadly force. Our legislation incorporates key findings and recommendations from the Ferguson Commission.

Cosponsors of the legislation include House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member John Conyers (D-MI), civil rights icon Congressman John Lewis (D-GA), as well as Congressional Black Caucus Chairman Cedric Richmond (D-LA).

Rep. Stratton to Help Jobseekers Connect with Training Resources at Free Career Fair State Rep. Juliana Stratton, D-Chicago, is helping connect local jobseekers with resources that help them train for careers that do not require a four-year college degree at a free alternative pathways college and career fair on Monday, May 8 from 9 a.m. to noon at Vandercook College of Music, located at 3125 S. Federal Street in Chicago.

The high cost of a college degree shouldn’t be a roadblock to a good career,” Stratton said. “There are many different paths to a good career, and a number of ways for local residents to get ahead in a competitive job market. I am excited to bring these resources to young people who want to build for their futures, and all jobseekers who are looking for new opportunities.”

Stratton is partnering with state Sen. Mattie Hunter and state Rep. Sonya Harper to host the alternative pathways college and career fair. The fair is free and open to the public, and will allow residents to speak with representatives from various vocational and tech schools in addition to having the ability to collect free information on career opportunities and job training. Stratton’s job fair will feature information on barber and beauty college, massage therapy certification, law enforcement and security training and other certification and training programs. In addition, residents will have the opportunity to learn how to create an employer-ready resume, succeed during an interview and read common financial documents.

Federal Program Offers $35,000 to Assist Seniors Struggling with Reverse Mortgages The Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA) recently launched the Reverse Mortgage Assistance Program to help senior homeowners with reverse mortgages pay back taxes and avoid foreclosure. On April 3, IHDA began providing up to $35,000 in federal assistance to qualifying borrowers with reverse mortgages to pay overdue property taxes, eligible property expenses and future property taxes so they can avoid foreclosure and remain in their homes.

“There is a real need for this kind of assistance in Illinois,” said IHDA Executive Director Audra Hamernik. “Many of these seniors are on fixed incomes and took out a reverse mortgage to help with healthcare or everyday living costs. They don’t have the resources to weather an unexpected home repair, medical event or loss of household income. This program offers the help they need to get back on track with their payments before they lose their home.”

Reverse Mortgages allow homeowners 62 and older to borrow against the equity they have built up in their home. The proceeds the borrower receives from the reverse mortgage must be repaid when the house is sold or the homeowners move. The borrower is still responsible for paying property taxes and homeowner’s insurance, and if they are unable to keep up with their payments, they may lose the home to foreclosure.

Treasurer Frerichs to Return Purple Heart Medal to Vietnam War Veteran

On Wednesday, April 12, Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs returned a Purple Heart Medal to Vietnam War Veteran Harold J. Walker. Walker, who currently resides in Mississippi, lived in Illinois when he was drafted into the U.S. Army. The military medal is among several others belonging to Walker surrendered to the Illinois State Treasurer’s Office as unclaimed property. The Illinois treasurer’s office is the custodian of unclaimed property, including lost bank accounts, insurance policy proceeds, and forgotten safe deposit boxes. The Purple Heart is one of the most recognized and respected medals awarded to members of the U.S. Armed Forces.

Chicago native and former Quentis Bernard Garth (QBG) Foundation Scholarship recipient, Tenisha Taylor Bell awards South Shore International College Preparatory Academy senior and student-athlete DeShawn Thomas with The Ezekiel Taylor Scholarship of $1,982, which represents the year Bell’s father died on the Southside of Chicago.

ETSF Awards Scholarships to Young Black Males

By Christopher Shuttlesworth

Chicago native and former Quentis Bernard Garth (QBG) Foundation Scholarship recipient, Tenisha Taylor Bell is keeping her promise to send more black males to college and fewer to the coroner. The Ezekiel Taylor Scholarship Foundation (ETSF) partnered with South Shore International College Preparatory Academy, located on 1955 E 75th St., for the Ezekiel Taylor ‘Stop the Violence’ essay contest, where high school male seniors were encouraged to write about how Chicago’s violence has impacted their lives, and how they plan to make a difference in their communities. Bell traveled to her hometown to surprise the lucky winner of the essay contest, which was [student-athlete DeShawn Thomas], according to an (ETSF) press release.

“I want to thank the Ezekiel Taylor Scholarship Foundation for choosing me as a 2017 recipient,” Thomas said. “When I found out that I was the scholarship awardee, I was very happy, grateful and proud.”

Thomas, who is currently a South Shore International College Preparatory Academy senior, said it was a great honor to represent a foundation that has a distinct purpose of helping young African American males such as himself lead to better lives, make good choices, impact their communities and give opportunities to further their education.

As he elaborated on his essay that he wrote for the Ezekiel Taylor Scholarship, Thomas fought back tears as he shared how Chicago’s violence has affected him and his family.

“When I first heard about the scholarship, it [shocked] me because of where I grew up at,” Thomas

said. “I’ve lost family to tragic instances, but it was something that woke me up. In January 2015, I lost two of my best friends to a shooting. So, I know how much it can really impact a family,” he said.

An excerpt from Thomas’ essay reads, “It is more than just going to school and playing on a few after school sport teams, socializing with my friends, eating lunch and dinner and then calling it a day. It has to be much more than that. It has to be much, much more than that, as I attempt to rebuild the structure of my community…that is by the way one of the oldest standing communities in the world, known as the South Shore community.”

Bell said she was moved by Thomas and his essay and plans to be an instrumental figure in his college career.

“Often times in this community, we don’t celebrate our young men,” Bell said. “Unfortunately tragedy hits and it hurts, but we want young people to know that we love and believe in them and that we want to invest in them.”

The Ezekiel Taylor Scholarship Foundation was named after Bell’s father who was killed on the Southside of Chicago by three young men in 1982. The foundation strategically honors her father by awarding recipients with $1, 982 in scholarship funds, the same year her father passed away. Bell said the foundation will continue to identify young black male students who don’t qualify for the “A” or “B” scholarships.

“This should be every young man in this city,” Bell said. “We’re going to too many funerals and we’re seeing too many shoot-outs, homicides. This is our future.

This is who we should be investing in.”

A local community coalition is calling for a community benefits agreement for the Obama Presidential Library.

The Obama Library Community Benefits Agreement Coalition said they feel a Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) is necessary due to Black residents being displaced by changes in communities such as the transformation plan of the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA) and the fall out of school closings, according to an Obama Library Community Benefits Agreement Coalition press release.

Attorney Allegra Cira Fischer of The Law Project, who’s working on behalf of the coalition to create an agreement said, attorneys view the CBA as a binding agreement between the developer and community members within the neighborhood.

Dominic Surya, who is an organizer of the Obama Library Community Benefits Agreement Coalition added, “We want to make sure that during the CBA meetings, we’re not affirming language about community benefits, but bringing community benefits to the Southside of Chicago and to the people who made former President Barack Obama who he is.”

Jawanza Brian Malone, a community leader who favors the agreement and who is also the Executive Director of the Kenwood-Oakland Community Organization, said every business in the world is bound by a contract and believes that this should be no different.

Malone added, “Communities around the world have been able to hold developers accountable to the communities where they seek to build. For us, this isn’t about whether we trust the first Black president to do the right thing. This is simply about business.”

“President and Mrs. Obama chose to develop the Obama

Presidential Center in the heart of Chicago’s South Side because it is the neighborhood they call home and the place they believed they could have the most impact,” The Barack

Obama Foundation Vice President of Civic Engagement Michael Strautmanis said. “The Obama Presidential Center will strengthen the economic climate in our community by bringing thousands of visitors to the South Side every year, creating new jobs, and revitalizing historic Jackson Park, he said, adding, “the foundation maintains the position that a community benefit agreement is not the tool that will have the most lasting economic impact on the South Side,” Strautmanis said. “The Foundation is encouraged by the energy and ideas that have come from hundreds of meetings with community organizations and residents, including those who are creating an economic development strategy that will engage the creativity, entrepreneurship, and work ethic that exists in the neighborhoods around the site of the Obama Presidential Center. We appreciate the efforts of everyone who is working hard to ensure the OPC becomes a catalyst for additional growth, and encourage everyone with an idea, expertise to offer, or additional resources to share to join the effort,” Strautmanis stated.

The Obama library is estimated to cost $600 million and could potentially create 1,900 permanent jobs and help build thirty restaurants, eleven stores, and even a hotel, according to UChicagogate.com.

“The permanent Obama Presidential Library will be constructed on Chicago’s South Side in Jackson Park.

The Barack Obama Presidential Library will be the 14th presidential library administered by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), a federal agency.

The Barack Obama Foundation has selected Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects | Partners (TWBTA) as the design team, with partners Interactive Design 3rd (IDEA),” according to obamalibrary.gov.

church Inspirations

from Rev. Dr. Derrick B. Wells,

Senior Minister of Christ Universal Temple

Adversarial Awareness

T

he prophet writer of Isaiah shared that just as the rain and snow fulfill the purpose for which each is sent, so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and succeed in the thing for which I sent it. Likewise, our words do not return to us void and these same words are filled with the power to accomplish what we speak. So whether we realize it or not, we never really outperform our conversation.

If we want to change our lives, we have to change the way we think of ourselves and if we want to change the way we think of ourselves, we need to change the words we say to ourselves. Life is already full of issues and challenges. Why add to them by discouraging yourself every day with negative self-talk?

Beneath the surface, each of us has an inner voice on a loud speaker trying to convince us of something about ourselves. What does your self-talk sound like and what is it saying to you? Is it a blessing to you? Do you encourage you? Alternatively, do you curse and criticize yourself?

Become your own encourager, your own cheerleader. Every time you do a good job, do not just let it pass; give yourself a compliment. Every time you choose discipline over indulgence, encourage yourself; recognize how much you are helping you. When you make a mistake, learn from it and improve but do not beat yourself up and relive the mistake without getting the lesson.

The help, boost, and acceptance you have been looking for might be found in the things you say to yourself! Speak life, especially to yourself!

FILM REVIEW: T2 TRAINSPOTTING

By Dwight Brown (NNPA Newswire Film Critic)

“Trainspotting” was a breakthrough film back in 1996. An edgy, eccentric blend of debauchery and rebellion set to one of the best British rock soundtracks ever made.

Twenty years later, the original director Danny Boyle (“Slumdog Millionaire,” “28 Days Later”) and screenwriter John Hodge assemble the same set of Scottish miscreants and make them deal with the aftermath of a betrayal that affected all their lives.

In the ‘90s film, Mark (Ewan McGregor) and Simone, aka Sick Boy (Jonny Lee Miller), were best friends since childhood. In their midtwenties, they hung out with the tall skinny dullard Daniel “Spud” Murphy (Ewen Bremner) and the short, violent and temperamental Francis “Franco” Begbie (Robert Carlyle). The four of them, and other comrades, had one thing in common: heroin addiction. It united them. Broke them apart. Caused death and destruction.

Their depraved indifference to life and traditional mores ended with a dope deal gone bad. Mark, who flirted with sobriety, ran off with £12,000 pounds. He left Spud £4,000, which went right into his arm. Simone got nothing. Franco got a jail sentence and a grudge against Mark that was eating him alive.

In 2017, nearing middle age, Mark’s yuppyish job at a Dutch software company ends. He returns to the scene of the crime, Edinburg.

These days, Simone, a cokehead, is in love with a prostitute named Veronika (Anjela Nedyalkova). The couple makes money by blackmailing clients, “Johns,” who are secretly videotaped as they bed Veronika, who dresses up as a dominatrix.

Spud is a bit of a depressed loner.

In fact, Mark is banging at the door of his flat just as his dejected friend is attempting suicide. Mark saves his life and Spud’s sour response is: “You ruined my life, and my death.”

Meanwhile, the fiercely vindictive Franco is plotting an escape from jail.

The reunion of these four is fraught with more anger, deceit, maleficence, apologies and ill will than a feud between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.

It’s a hard task recapturing the dark humor and light spirits that made the original movie so shocking yet endearing. This script puts Mark and Simon on a mission to build a spa (brothel) that Veronika can operate.

Mark, whose libido knows no bounds, flirts with Veronika, knowing that

Simon loves her. But that’s Mark’s M.O: he can’t be trusted with a friend’s girlfriend. The character that gets the best facelift is Spud, who dares to dream big and finds an ounce of courage, when he had none in the first film. Franco, who makes a junkyard dog look like a prince, is so mean and violent he alienates himself from his family and goes after Mark with a sheer vengeance.

Boyle has a fun way with the footage. He will stop it cold; shoot scenes at odd angles (cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle, Slumdog Millionaire); Cut in flashbacks (editor Jon Harris, “Kingsman: The Secret Service”); and add colorful and textured dreamy images over scenes (production design Patrick Rolfe and Mark Tildesley; art direction Patrick Rolfe). It is a pleasure to watch him weave his artistic magic.

And though the soundtrack doesn’t boast a song as catchy as the first movie’s hit tune “Lust for Life,” some of the kinetic music has a throbbing beat.

Boyle’s innovation helps greatly as you realize that this script is not as fresh as the 1996 one, which was based on a novel

by Irvine Welsh. That screenplay treaded new territory that audiences couldn’t fathom: Poor Scottish adolescents, living in and around wealth and middle-class amenities, unable to hold down a nine-to-five and relegated to a parallel world. Their degeneracy and irresponsibility had no limits, and they were so oblivious to reality that a baby died while in their

custody. That stream of decadence was a jolt to the senses. Nothing in this film is quite as shocking. But then

again, what could be?

McGregor, Miller, Bremmer and Carlyle slip into their old characters,

friendships, jealousies and rivalries comfortably—like they were trying on a pair of old faded, torn jeans that still fit or dusting off old drug paraphernalia. At one point Veronika points out to Mark “You’re a tourist in your own youth.” That’s the way it feels watching these graying, saggy-eyed fortysomethings trying to get their mojo back. They can’t relive their lives, but they can die trying.

In the end, there is something woefully nostalgic about watching McGregor, Miller, Bremner and Carlyle running down the cobblestone streets of Edinburg with an urgency and abandonment that is similar to the chaos they wreaked in “Trainspotting.”

The guys are a few paces slower, and almost as reckless. Just like T2.
