rustrated because she couldn’t find books that her six-year-old African-American niece could relate to and enjoy, a Chicago-based entrepreneur created a company featuring a library of ebooks whose storylines, characters and uplifting messages mirror the lives, families and communities of Black and Latino children. It is the first time in publishing history that a minority firm has created an interactive digital platform whose offerings are specifically written for multicultural children ages three to eight. This interactive digital library of ebooks will be published by KaZoom Kids iStory Books, a division of KaZoom Digital Publishing. Award-winning marketer, Donna Beasley, is founder and president. An official launch of KaZoom Kids iStory Books digital platform took place on July 16th.

Aldermen Leslie Hairston and Jason Ervin Support Additional Community Input on Police Reform Aldermen Leslie Hairston (5th) and Jason Ervin (28th), are working together on a final police accountability ordinance that preserves and makes stronger the tenets of the Independent Citizen Police Monitor and FAIR COPS ordinances they both introduced in City Council earlier this year.

Hairston’s ordinance abolishes the Independent Police Review Authority and establishes, in its place, a credible civilian agency to investigate police misconduct and ensures the ICPM will have the powers it needs to perform high quality investigations, and be accountable to the public, unbiased, fully transparent, rigorous and independent. Ervin’s ordinance calls for establishing an auditor for the Police Department within the Chicago Inspector General’s office.

To be effective and transformational, both

require community oversight and a dedicated funding source. To get real community input they are joining their colleagues on the Chicago City Council Progressive Reform Caucus to hold a series of public meetings throughout the city on the

“Given the enormity and seriousness of this problem, it is unreasonable to think that real reform can take place in a day or two.”

urgent topic of police reform and accountability.

“Given the enormity and seriousness of this problem, it is unreasonable to think that real reform can take place in a day or two,” explains Hairston. “This is going to take time, and we have

to take the time in order to get it right.”

“I’m pleased to be joining my colleagues to work together on this critical effort,” says Alderman Ervin. “Our constituents desperately want a police force they can trust to serve and protect them. Without real reforms, we will never be able to move forward as a community.”

Hairston believes a range of five to seven public meetings should take place to evaluate what Chicago residents most impacted by police misconduct want to see in the final ordinance.

“Ald. Ervin and myself will look at our outlines and figure out what we should add and where we can improve our final ordinance,” says Hairston.

The first public meeting on police reform will take place at Malcolm X College, 1900 W. Jackson Blvd., Conference Hall A 1108 on Thursday, July 21, 2016 at 6:30 p.m.

KaZoom Kids Books iStory App Sparks Interest in Reading for African-American and Latino Children Continued from page 1

Billed as a subscription based service for children’s books, those interested in accessing the books can subscribe at their website at www.KaZoomKidsBooks.com. The library features ten titles; two additional ebooks are offered per month.

According to Beasley, books that depict the multi-cultural experience allow kids of color an opportunity to see themselves reflected positively. Elaborating on the purpose of the company, Beasley said, “Our mission is to bring greater diversity to children’s literature.

Our books will engage a child with readalong audio, sound, music, touch and animation.”

With the KaZoom Kids iStory App, each child can read the story or have the story read to them at the touch screen with words highlighted for the readalong option.

Filled with whimsical characters and illustrations that delight, and fascinate, the stories are fun, but also touch on multiculturally-sensitive issues like black hair and single parenting.

Other stories chronicle inspiring tales of successes.

Educators, parents and children are hailing the series for sparking an early love of reading and learning that could have lifelong benefits. Beasley says this Donna Beasley is another positive by-product of the series. “The series helps improve a child’s reading skills by taking advantage of interactive technology,” she declares.

Vera Smith, a teacher at Miles Davis Magnet School, was shocked by the lack of diverse books for her students. Because of this, she often has to create her own materials. She says, “It is important for children to read stories with characters that look like them. It builds their self-esteem and lets them know they are not alone with things they struggle with like bullying. It also

shows that they can overcome adversity. Like the characters, it gives them hope that they can achieve their dreams. I am super excited to become one of the first subscribers to KaZoom iStory Books.”

Mrs. Linda Jones, who was part of a focus group when the series was concept tested, said her eight-year-old daughter feels a connection to the characters and is drawn to them. As she reads the stories on the touch screen, she experiences a sense of glee and wonderment.

“Watching my daughter experience sheer joy is so uplifting and touching. She is transformed from being bored to being entertained, engaged, enchanted. We can’t wait for the launch so we can get current titles and the new offerings each month.”

The scarcity of books/ebooks that appeal to children of color is a disturbing reality that Beasley says is anchored in racism and in a failure to value black and brown children.

“If you are an African-American or Latino mother of young children you can seldom find children’s book that reflect your life, family and community,” notes Beasley. “There is a void in the publishing industry for multicultural children’s books. It is a startling fact that in 2014 only 5% of children’s literature included children of color. Yet our public school systems serve 40% black and Latino students. This is a similar demographic in urban centers nationwide.”

She sees the digital ebooks - and other similarly-inspired efforts - as part of a universal solution to the problem of children of color losing interest in school and experiencing failure in life.

A veteran marketer, Beasley drew from her vast

experience in advertising, marketing and publishing to bring the company to life. Plying her years of creative contacts, she reached out to the Chicago community and asked for help to develop the books.

“Writers, illustrators and book designers of all ages and ability levels answered the call to make a difference in the diversity of children’s books. Over half of our ibooks are by first time authors. We take great pride in opening up this industry to new and diverse talent. Our goal is to make these books entertaining and enriching for our young readers. We are absolutely thrilled and delighted about this product launch. We believe every child should see themselves and their community in a book. Our books help children grow up proud.” A Sampling of KaZoom’s titles include: Alyassa Marissa and Her Magical Hair - is a picture book celebrating being true to who you are. Alyssa’s hair can do a lot of things, but can it help her make friends? She worries if she’ll be liked in the first grade class of her new school. Written

by Angela Williams and Illustrated by Janine Carrington Born To Dance - Is an engaging story based on the life of dancer and dance teacher Doris Humphries. It is written in poetic verse that flows with fun and energy. The story is written by her daughter Kathleen Humphries in celebration of her mother’s life. Doris is still teaching tap dancing and tango at the age of 91. Illustrated by Rich Lo Nana Anna Series - Follows the life of Henry in 4 picture books including, Hard-Headed Henry, Uncle Lester’s Teeth, Henry’s Tonsils and Visit to Miz Roberts House. Each book has read-along audio. Written by Nana Anna and Illustrated by Pamela Rice.

Kason’s Kite - Kason’s makes his own kite and attends the neighborhood kite festival with his dad. Then a dog gets loose and starts chasing a cat kite. That’s when the trouble begins. This story shares the bond between a son and his single dad. Written by Donna Renee and Illustrated by Teddy Lu.

The Chicago Urban League Commemorates 100 Years The Chicago Urban League recently began a year-long commemoration of its 100th anniversary. To honor the milestone, the organization is kicking the Centennial year off with a free community cookout in Washington Park on July 23rd from Noon3:00 p.m., and a call for individuals to collectively pledge 100,000 volunteer hours across the community throughout the year.

Reflecting back a century ago, it is manifestly clear that the work of the Chicago Urban League has played a profoundly significant role in the evolution of the city’s landscape. The League was one of the first affiliates of the National Urban League organized in the United States to address the needs of African Americans migrating from the rural South to the northern cities in unprecedented numbers at the height of the Great Migration. Holding their first organizing meeting at the Wabash Avenue Y.M.C.A. in 1916, an interracial group of community, civic, and business notables set out with one main mission in mind – to create an organization to bring about social and economic justice to Chicago’s African American population.

The organization’s history can be seen as a consistent leader in confronting issues of discrimination and racism from redlining and school segregation to inequitable transit infrastructures and the suburbanization of employment.

As one of the largest affiliates in the nation, the Chicago organization remains a leader in the Urban League movement, committed to the fundamental principles upon which it was founded. However, today, African Americans in Chicago and around the country find themselves in conditions that continue to worsen in every leading socioeconomic indicator such as employment, educational outcomes and crime.

“In the 50 years since the Civil Rights Act was enacted, African Americans still struggle with the same core issues: employment, education, housing, income stability,” said Chicago Urban League president and CEO Shari Runner. “The League has consistently demonstrated that we are a movement that incites change and is committed to working with community

members and partners across the city to address the root causes of inequality, apply best practices and improve the future for our youth, our communities and the entire city of Chicago.”

Next month, the League will unveil a comprehensive 10-year plan designed to improve the most underserved communities, as identified in the organization’s research study, The Impact of Chicago’s Racial Residential Segregation on Residence, Housing and Transportation. The plan is built on three principles: 1) education as the foundation for future success; 2) employment as the foundation for poverty reduction and financial security; and 3) asset building as the foundation for sustainable wealth creation.

Importantly, the League is also tackling gun trafficking and gun violence, symptoms of inequality that increasingly impacts the health and well-being of our communities.

“The Chicago Urban League has survived and thrived for 100 years by remaining true to our core values and

mission,” continued Runner. “This has allowed us to make substantial impact, and as we step into the League’s second century of service, we are taking an intentional, focused and outcome driven approach to enacting transformational change.

We are going to make sure that the work we do is not in vain. We are no longer solely treating the symptoms of our community’s suffering at the hands of racism, but committed to dismantling its root causes.”

Series of Chicago Urban League Centennial Initiatives Planned The Chicago Urban League will use its Centennial to engage with clients, community members, business leaders and academia.

Highlights include: Centennial Kickoff Cookout Party in the Park Saturday, July 23 from Noon-3:00 p.m. at Washington Park, offering free hotdogs, hamburgers and door-prizes while they last.

KidsZone activities, Seniors Lounge, music, and more! RSVP by sending an email to culconnect@thechicagourbanleague.org by Wednesday, July 20that 5 p.m. CT Thought Leadership Breakfast Wednesday, August 24 from 7:30-9:00 a.m. Sponsored by U.S. Bank, the inviteonly event will provide a well-rounded and thought-provoking conversation about the complex socioeconomic issues detailed in the League’s research report, The Impact of Racial Residential Segregation on Residence, Housing and Transportation.

For more information, email culconnect@ thechicagourbanleague.org.

In 2010, Goldman Sachs launched the “10,000 Small Businesses” program to help business owners unlock their potential for growth and job creation by providing greater access to business education, financial capital and support services.

Six years later, the $500 million initiative continues to empower small business owners – from startups to seasoned companies – with the tools they need to achieve higher levels of success.

In December, NAACP National President and CEO Cornell William Brooks announced that his organization would join the initiative and utilize the NAACP’s

network of 2,200 local chapters and state conferences to help inform and recruit small business owners to join the program, which provides intensive specialized business management courses for applicants and opportunities to access capital.

“Small businesses are the lifeblood of every neighborhood and community,” Brooks said in a news release. “Supporting their growth and ability to thrive will only strengthen the communities in which those businesses call home and provide much-needed economic opportunity to the existing and future employees of those businesses.”

In getting the word out about the program to local communities, Moin said they always partner with local and national entities like the GS1 Alumni from the Goldman Sachs “10,000 Small Businesses” gather at a recent program in Philadelphia with city officials and a top Goldman Sachs executive.

NAACP and the National Urban League, particularly where the membership is primarily AfricanAmerican.

“It’s important to partner with these organizations…they are the community ambassadors,” she said.

“I can show up in a market and the small business owners are not going to know me, but they may know someone from the NAACP or the Urban League.”

The program is based on the broadly held view of leading experts that greater access to this combination of education, capital and support services is the best way to address barriers to growth.

“The easiest way to describe the program is that it’s a practical hands-on business education on your business,” said Sonia Moin, program manager at Boston-based Initiative for a Competitive Inner City – or ICIC, which has partnered with Goldman Sachs on the “10,000 Small Businesses” program. “In the room, the small business owners learn from other business owners who are facing similar challenges including growth opportunities, access to capital and [hiring practices].”

Moin said that the program curriculum, designed by Babson College, one of the top entrepreneurship colleges in the country, enables participants to immediately apply the lessons they’ve learned that day in a real world business environment.

The “10,000 Small Businesses” program is currently operating in Cleveland, Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Houston, Long Beach, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, New York City, Philadelphia, Rhode Island, and Salt Lake City.

Approximately 62 percent of small businesses in the United States have four or fewer employees and the Goldman Sachs initiative offers enormous and largely untapped potential in creating new jobs and

generating economic development, according to a recent report titled “The State of Small Business in America” by Babson College.

“We all benefit if we are able to foster a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem that best supports ongoing small business growth and job creation in America,” Babson College President Kerry Healey said in a statement. “Public and private sectors must work together to support small businesses, which comprise 99 percent of all U.S. employer firms and which account for more than half of the private sector’s net new jobs over the past two decades.”

More than 1,800 businesses across the United States were surveyed for the report. Most were “10,000 Small Businesses” participants, who reported that obtaining capital remains a big hurdle.

The study also found that small businesses are four times more likely to go to a bank for capital needs.

Looking across all sources of capital, survey respondents apply for a median amount of $100,000, but receive only 40 percent of what they seek. Business owners say that they need more flexible loan terms.

Further, business owners find regulation both difficult and time-consuming. On average, four hours per week is spent dealing with government regulations and tax compliance, which totals over 200 hours per year.

With the launch of ”10,000 Small Businesses” at Babson College, which is the program’s national cohort, business owners from all 50 states now have the opportunity to participate, Moin said.

This model of the program is delivered through a blend of online and in-person sessions and is intended for business owners located beyond the reasonable driving distance of a locally delivered program.

“The program helps to address the challenges faced by all small business owners, and our goal and the goal of all of our partners is to make them aware this resource exists and the impact it can have on their business,” Moin said. “Many small business owners say they don’t have the time to dedicate to a program such as this, but we try to convince them why the return on investment is important, if they want their business to grow. It’s important to step away from the business in order to work on the business.”

To date, over 6,500 small businesses have been served across 31 sites. More than 99 percent of participants graduate and more than half of the businesses reported increased revenues and expanded work forces within 18 months of graduation.

Ideal candidates are small business owners with more than $150,000 in revenue and have been in operation for at least two years.

Qualifying businesses also must demonstrate that they employ four or more workers and have a scalable business model and a commitment to grow and hire locally.

The initiative has a wealth of success stories with Moin pointing out how one of the small business owners who graduated from the program saw her revenue increase by 658 percent, enabling her business to add 110 new jobs.

Another small business owner who recently graduated from the program saw a 120 percent increase in revenue, helping to add 17 new jobs.

“We’re getting the results we want,” Moin said. “On average, when our alumni graduate, in six months, approximately 69 percent of them report growing revenue and 48 percent of them report that they’ve added jobs.”

Missouri-based shoe fashion accessory company, “Heelusions” Heels by Design, has brought to market a completely new concept in women’s shoe accessories.

Heelusions’ unique and innovative accessory can make a single pair of shoes appear to be several different pairs when wearing the interchangeable decorative fabric shoe heel covers (‘illusions’). The wear-resistant lycra fabric exterior also protects the back of heels from scratching and marring, and covers existing heel blemishes on older shoes.

Both stylish and eye-catching, Heelusions comfortably fit any size shoe with any type or height heel—from stilettos to low chunky heels—and are easily applied to shoes in mere seconds.

Further, shoe budgets can be drastically reduced. Fewer pairs of shoes can become several different ‘illusions.’

When traveling, Heelusions can simplify packing by taking only one pair of shoes and a different heel pattern for each outfit.

Heelusions was formed in Lee’s Summit, Missouri in 2014, and launched in July 2015 by founder and president Joan Mauck. The idea came to Mauck when getting into her car to go to work one day, she noticed the back of her favorite pair of black heels looked appalling from blemishes that had derived from regularly resting her heel on the floor mat.

She was soon struck with a clever idea to cover the marring on the back of her shoes.

Heelusions’ patented design ensures the stylish heel covers are held securely in place with small non-detectable Velcro coins inside the heel of the shoe. Affordably priced, ‘Heelusions’ are available in 18 fashionable patterns, with more to come. Currently available are nine collection sets; each set contains three pairs in different patterns.

View all 18 attractive pattern designs on the company’s website (www.Heelusions.com).

Dermatologists Share Tips to Stop Nail Biting Breaking a nail is one thing. Breaking a nail-biting habit is another, say member dermatologists from the American Academy of Dermatology. Nail biting typically begins in childhood and can continue through adulthood, and the side effects can be more than cosmetic, say dermatologists.

How to Stop Biting Your Nails “Chronic nail biting can cause serious problems,” said board-certified dermatologist Margaret E. Parsons, MD, FAAD, associate clinical professor of dermatology, University of California, Davis. “In addition to making the skin around your nails feel sore, repeated nail biting can damage the tissue that makes nails grow, resulting in abnormal-looking nails. It can also leave you vulnerable to infection as you pass harmful bacteria and viruses from your mouth to your fingers and from your nails to your face and mouth.”

To help patients kick the habit, Dr. Parsons recommends the following tips: Keep your nails trimmed short: Having less nail provides less to bite and is less tempting.

Apply bitter-tasting nail polish to your nails: Available over-the-counter, this safe but awful-tasting formula discourages many people from biting their nails.

Get regular manicures: Spending money to keep your nails looking attractive may make you less likely to bite them. Alternatively, you can also cover your nails with tape or stickers or wear gloves to prevent biting.

Replace the nail-biting habit with a good habit: When you feel like biting your nails, try playing with a stress ball instead. This will help keep your hands busy and away from your mouth.

Identify your triggers: These could be physical triggers, such as the presence of hangnails, or other triggers, such as boredom, stress or anxiety. By figuring out what causes you to bite your nails, you can figure out how to avoid these situations and develop a plan to stop. Just knowing when you’re inclined to bite may help solve the problem.

Try to gradually stop biting your nails: Some doctors recommend taking a

gradual approach to break the habit. Try to stop biting one set of nails, such as your thumb nails, first. When that’s successful, eliminate your pinky nails, pointer nails, or even an entire hand. The goal is to get to the point where you no longer bite any of your nails.

“For some people, nail biting may be a sign of a more serious psychological or emotional problem,” said Dr. Parsons. “If you’ve repeatedly tried to quit and the problem persists, consult a doctor. If you bite your nails and develop a skin or nail infection, consult a board-certified dermatologist.”

These tips are demonstrated in “Nail-Biting: Tips to Stop,” a video posted to the Academy website and the Academy’s YouTube channel. This video is part of the Dermatology A to Z: Video Series, which offers videos demonstrating tips people can use to properly care for their skin, hair and nails. A new video in the series posts to the Academy’s website and YouTube channel each month.

TWO FIRST-GENERATION COLLEGE STUDENTS ACCEPTED TO HIGHLY SELECTIVE THIRD ANNUAL BEATING THE ODDS SUMMIT AT THE WHITE HOUSE On Tuesday, July 19, Nia Hill and Christopher Wilson, both involved in local non-profit Chicago Scholars and rising first-generation college students, attended Beating the Odds Summit at the White House.

Beating the Odds Summit is an event hosted by Michelle Obama as part of her Reach Higher initiative to celebrate college-bound students who have overcome great odds to get to where they are today. Hill and Wilson were in the company of Christopher Wilson about 130 carefully selected students from across the country who represent urban, rural, foster, homeless, special needs and under-represented youth who have overcome substantial obstacles to persist through high school and make it to a post-secondary institution.

At the summit, students were celebrated for their tremendous accomplishments and had the opportunity to hear advice from the First Lady as well as major White House and

Department of Education representatives, staff from organizations like Google and influencers such as Tyler Oakley and Jidenna.

Students also participated in workshops and panels led by the Department of Education, author and BridgeEdU CEO Wes Moore and other leaders in K-12 and post-secondary education. The breakouts focused on sharing tools and strategies students can use to successfully transition into to college and to the resources they will need to complete Nia Hill the next level of their education. Nia and Christopher were given the opportunity to attend because Chicago Scholars was invited by the White House to nominate and sponsor two deserving students.Both rising college freshmen credit Chicago Scholars for transforming their lives and helping them overcome the grave challenges they have faced growing up in their under-resourced Chicago neighborhoods.

Ten Hints To Help You Get Home From College (NAPSI)—As Walt Whitman is quoted in numerous graduation speeches as having said, “Not I—nor anyone else can travel that road for you. You must travel it for yourself.”

However, as most graduates have discovered, the first place they have to travel is probably away from school.

Whether you’re going back to your parents’ place, your new grad school housing or a place of your own (with or without roommates), you have to get all your stuff there. Here are 10 hints on how, from the experts on moving at Penske Truck Rental: 1. Order the right truck in advance. For most students, a 12- or 16-foot truck will do. Bear in mind, you’re not the only one moving out.

Try to reserve the truck and any accessories—boxes, packing tape, bubble packing material, moving blankets, hand trucks and so on—at least two weeks in advance.

2. Plan out how long it will take you to get where you’re going. Take into account the time of day, traffic patterns and stops.

Consider that the truck is probably taller, wider and heavier than what you’re used to driving so you may have to drive more slowly.

3. Familiarize yourself with the truck. Learn what all the switches and gauges do. Adjust the seat and side mirrors. Be aware that

trucks have oversized blind spots and are tougher to turn than a car.

4. Read the rental agreement. Note that the U.S. Department of Transportation prohibits the “carrying or hauling of explosives and other dangerous articles.” You can’t pack paint, chemicals and cleaning materials, flammable solvents, propane, gasoline and the like.

5. Insure yourself. Most insurance and credit card companies don’t cover truck rentals. Consider additional coverage.

6. Pack a separate travel bag.

Put in any items you may need in a hurry: paperwork, credit cards, identification, a change of clothes, medicine, drinks and snacks.

7. Pack properly. Put the heaviest items on the truck first. Lift with your legs, not your back.

8. Find a travel companion.

Sharing the ride can help with the costs, the driving and the packing.

9. Use discounts. Penske Truck Rental offers AAA members a discount.

10. Stay safe. Park in well-lit areas and keep a padlock on the rear door. In an emergency, you can call Penske for roadside assistance at any time, day or night.

(StatePoint) You might not earn your living taking care of lawns, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get the same quality of cut as landscape professionals.

For a consistently superior cut, experts say average consumers should look for commercial grade products.

“Homeowners can also benefit from the performance and reliability a true com­ mercial mower offers,” says Lloyd von Scheliha, product manager at Exmark, a lead­ ing manufacturer of lawn care equipment.

“You’ll get lawn care done faster and it will look better in the end. Your mower will also last longer and require less maintenance.”

Homeowners should be advised however that the term “commercial grade” is thrown around a lot these days in advertising. If you’re in the market for a new mower, you should understand what commercial grade really means before making a purchase.

“Take a look at the equipment your local landscape professionals are using and you`ll get a good feel for what commercial mow­ ers look like,” says von Scheliha.

He says homeowners should con­ sider the following: * Your mower should offer superi­ or durability to stand the test of time. Look for fabricated cutting decks, which are stiffer, stronger and more durable than stamped decks — even reinforced models. The durability advantage should extend to the components as well. * Productivity and maneuverabili­ ty in a mower offer average consumers time­ savings, reducing the time that’s needed to cut a lawn, and then do trim work. Consider a zero­turn mower, which delivers a finished appearance more quickly than other mower types. * Even a commercial mower will deliver superior results longer if you perform routine maintenance. Always consult your owner’s manual to determine what specific maintenance is necessary for your machine.

Cleaning, sharpening or replacing blades as they dull, replacing belts as they become worn, oil and filter changes, and other specific mainte­ nance as outlined in your owner’s manual, will improve equipment performance and longevity.

More information about lawn care and commercial grade lawn equipment can be found at Exmark.com.

This season, take steps to be informed so you can mow like a pro.
