Students For THE NEW YEAR
Reported by Inglewood Mayor James T. Butts.
Inglewood Mayor James T. Butts reported that Assemblywoman Autumn Burke had a Wellness and Back to School Backpack event on Saturday. Mari Morales and OFA (One for All) had a scholarship event with checks given to a number of Inglewood scholar youths that have been accepted to college. Maxine Waters was on hand for the OFA event. Nautica de la Cruz of 102.3 KJLH was the MC for Autumn’s event. Our Olympian Althea Moses was there as well. Great time for a lot of young people.
According to the Inglewood City Clerk’s office, five candidates have completed the requirements to be on the November ballot as a candidate to become the next mayor of the City of Inglewood. Two of the candidates provided a candidate statement and they are summarized below. The election will be conducted on November 7, 2018. Mayor James Butts has served the public for 46 years and is running for reelection for his 3rd term as Mayor of the City of Inglewood. He served 19 years with Inglewood Police Department, promoted to Deputy Chief; 15 years as Chief of Police in the City of Santa Monica; then Assistant General Manager at Los Angeles World Airport (LAX). Mayor Butts’ leadership in Inglewood has experienced seven consecutive years of the lowest crime rates recorded. Crime is down 70% since 1981. Unemployment in the City of Inglewood, under his leadership
has shrunk from 17% to 4.8%. Like cities throughout the State of California, property values have increased over 150%. When Mayor Butts assumed office, the city had a cash deficit of over $17 million. Under his leadership Inglewood has tripled its cash reserves and the city’s bond rating has been upgraded 4 times in 3 years. Thanks to his negotiations, the Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers will play in the new sports entertainment complex that is expected to be completed in 2020. The National Football League has announced that Superbowl 54 will be played in Inglewood in 2022. The City is negotiating to bring the Los Angeles Clippers to their new basketball arena by 2024. Mayor Butts and his city council colleagues have been busy making Inglewood a world-class city. The Girls Scouts are moving their regional headquarters from Marina Del Rey to Inglewood. The NFL Network is leaving Culver City for Ingle-
wood. In 2012 Mayor Butts negotiated the reopening of the Forum. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Championship game is here in 2023 and the Olympic World games in 2028. Just yesterday, the Los Angeles Philharmonic unveiled the architectural rendering of the permanent home for their Youth Orchestra Los Angeles Facility, adjacent to Inglewood City Hall. The design will transform an existing 18,000 square-foot building into a 25,000 square-foot facility that will serve up to 500 students annually from Inglewood and the surrounding community. Mayor Butts was named one of the 500 most influential leaders in Los Angeles by the Los Angeles Business Journal in 2016, 2017 & 2018 and he has led, and continues to lead a monumental transformation for the City of Inglewood that is second-to– none in the nation.

YOUTH ORCHESTRA LOS ANGELES By Francis Taylor, Asst. Editor
The Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra came to Inglewood yesterday to reveal the architectural rendering of the permanent home of their Youth Orchestra Los Angeles (YOLA) facility that will be situated adjacent to the Inglewood City Hall in Downtown Inglewood. YOLA is the embodiment of Gustavo Dudamel’s belief that music is a fundamental human right. It democratizes music education by offering free, high quality music training to students six to eighteen in neighborhoods that are often overlooked and underserved. What began as a single orchestra I 2007 has grown into eight ensembles in 10 years. YOLA began with 80 students
at one site and it now serves more than 1,200 across four Los Angeles locations. YOLS is where social programming meets music education to yield vital citizens poised to change the future. YOLA provides intensive afterschool training and ensemble based learning. Its instruction includes life skills development in leadership, mentorship and communication, with attention to academic tutoring, college preparation and parent and family engagement.

WEST ADAMS AVENUE JAZZ & MUSIC FESTIVAL FREE: FOR A CHANGE
The West Adams Avenues Jazz & Musical Festival “Under the Stars,” started 16 years ago! What started as a culturally diverse gathering of neighbors with picnic baskets and lawn chairs, enjoying local musicians from the community turned into a phenomenal event happening every Labor Day weekend. This free, three-night event will begin on Friday, August 31 and will continue on Saturday and Sunday, September 1&2, from 6 p.m. until midnight, each night, at Adams Boulevard and 7th Avenue. Last year’s event shattered all expectations with more than 5,000 attendees. The festival like atmosphere featured three full nights of music, dancing in the streets, activities for children, a dance contest, arts, crafts and jewelry from local artisans and fabulous food from area restaurants. The Inglewood community is invited to experience one of the most diverse street and neighborhood gathering events in Los Angeles.
LABOR DEPARTMENT REPORT:
COST-OF-LIVING RISING AT ITS
FASTEST RATE IN 10 YEARS President Trump’s claim to fame since being elected is that the economy is booming, people are earning more and unemployment is at its lowest levels in decades. The Labor Department released a report on Friday that contradicts Trump’s repeated claims. The report is being dubbed the ‘worst report in a decade, as it shows the cost of living in the U.S. rising at its fastest rate in 10 years. The data shows specifically that consumer prices in the U.S. increased 2.9 percent since last July, meaning that on average, even though Americans might be seeing a bit more money in their paychecks, if you didn’t receive almost a 3% raise since last year, you’re earning less overall. The money you make won’t buy you as much. In fact, Pew Research reports, despite some ups and downs over the past several decades, today’s real average wage (that is, the wage after accounting for inflation) has about the same purchasing power it did 40 years ago. CNBC reported on Friday about the rising Consumer Price Index (CPI) and noted that it rose two percent last month, and not only that, but the trend was strengthening. That trend suggests that the CPI will continue to rise, confirming that consumer buying power will continue to
decline. They noted that more price increases are expected to come about, in part, due to Trump’s tariffs which will cause manufacturers to pay more on lumber, aluminum, and steel imports. Everyone remembers the Jimmy Carter years. Hyper-inflation ended up contributing to the end of his presidency. No one is suggesting that’s what’s even close to going on here, but this newly found data will put even more pressure on the fed to increase interest rates, which will thereby mean the party will soon be coming to an end. Borrowing will have higher costs, and every decimal point change will have a domino effect on the overall economy. Expect this to put a damper on President Trump’s re-election prospects. The stock market can change on a whim and things aren’t humming along as nicely as people in the Trump administration would like you to believe.

‘BLACKK KLANSMAN’ REVIEW By Francis Taylor & JonScott Williams
Despite the title of Spike Lee’s latest film, :BlacKKKlansman,” producer (Jordan Peele of “Get Out” fame) and Lee as director this is not a “Black movie”. In the guise of a police procedural, Lee tells the true story of Colorado Springs’ first Black police officer, Ron Stallworth (John David Washington). Craving action, while stuck at a desk in the undercover unit, Stallworth answers a newspaper recruiting ad for a local chapter of the KKK. Rather than devolving into a comedy of errors, the movie follows Stallworth’s
developing, telephone relationship with the Klan chapter. Concurrently, he is also developing a relationship with the president of the Colorado Springs College Black Students Union, Patrice (who is unaware of his job). When finally asked to meet with chapter members he enlists a police colleague, Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver) to be Ron Stallworth. Stallworth himself eventually manages to contact David Duke (Topher Grace) Grand Imperial Poobah of the KKK. What follows is best seen, rather than described.
This movie is Lee’s artistic scream at the nation’s racist past and its White supremacist present. It is a brilliant mix of drama and comedy; crime solving and law enforcement; history and documentary ... there is action, but this is no “action film” in the usual sense ... there is tension without fake suspense ... there are speeches, but not polemics ... it hits you hard, but not over the head. Lee makes the movie’s point, that white supremacy is a clear and present danger, with cameos of Alec Baldwin as
a fictional racist - Dr. Kennebrew Beauregard and Harry Belafonte - as Jerome Turner, a fictional witness to an early 1900’s lynching; intercuts of “Gone With the Wind” and the Charlottesville riot (including IQ45’s “... good people on both sides ...”, nonsense); music - from The Edwin Hawkins Singers to James Brown to Emerson Lake and Palmer; a good script and solid acting. We should all see this movie ... no matter who you are ... you will learn something ... possibly about yourself.

CELEBRITIES GIVING-BACK FOR EDUCATION By INGLEWOOD TODAY Newswire
Kevin Hart teamed up with the United Negro College Fund and KIPP Public schools, a nationwide network of free open-enrollment college-preparatory schools in underserved communities, to provide $600,000 in scholarships to 18 qualifying students attending historically black colleges and universities. On Monday, the comedian surprised the recipients at an event in Los Angeles. KIPP and the Philadelphia native’s Help From The Hart Charity each donated $300,000 toward the scholarship fund. The students are attending 11 colleges including Tuskegee University, Xavier University, Morehouse College, Spelman College and Clark Atlanta University. The young scholars are from eight different cities, and Hart was proud to mention eight of them hail from his hometown.
According to the Atlanta JournalConstitution, the Night School star said, “Education and knowledge are powerful. I just wanted to do my part in providing opportunities for our future leaders, especially from my Philly hometown, and show support for HBCUs. This is just the beginning: trust me when I tell you there are a lot more kids who want to go to college who don’t have the money to make it happen.” Hart donated $100,000 to the fund in 2015. He becomes the latest celebrity including Beyoncé to help students attend HBCUs through a scholarship program. Black-ish creator Kenya Barris and his wife, Dr. Rainbow Barris, recently showed the masses just how important it is to never forget where you came from, as the pair just donated $1 million to their alma mater, Clark Atlanta Univer-
sity. The Kenya and Rainbow Barris Annual Scholarship Award kicks off the universities year-long 30th anniversary celebration and will be divided among students studying mass media arts and biology, according to a statement from the institution. “Mr. Barris has lifted his powerful voice in the entertainment industry to explore issues of classism and racism in creative and humorous ways,” said Dr. Ronald A. Johnson, president of Clark Atlanta University. “In giving back to their alma mater, he has again used his powerful voice to articulate the importance of supporting this beloved institution that is giving our students the skills and confidence to find and lift their own voices in the field of their choice.” Kenya and Rainbow Barris both gradu-
ated from CAU in 1996 with degrees in mass media arts and biology respectively. Mr. Barris also recently spoke during the HBCU’s commencement ceremony.
When life gives you more than you can stand, kneel.

MICHAEL JORDAN’S $7 MILLION
Funds Health Clinics in Charlotte’s At-Risk Areas Acting President By AP
Michael Jordan is going public with his largest philanthropic gift, donating $7 million to establish two medical clinics in troubled Charlotte communities. Jordan, the billionaire owner of the Charlotte Hornets and a North Carolina native, is making a personal gift to fund Novant Health Michael Jordan Family Clinics, according to the Charlotte Observer. The clinics, projected to open in late 2020, are designed to serve some of the city’s densest areas of poverty. “Michael really wanted to do something personally, he and his family, in the North Carolina area, separate from the work we’ve done with the Hornets,” Estee Portnoy, Jordan’s spokesperson, told the Observer. In a statement, Jordan said he hoped the clinics “will help provide a brighter and healthier future for the children and families they serve.” Over the years, one of the biggest criticisms of Jordan has been his neutrality on social and political issues. That, though, seems to be ending. The Hall of Famer spoke up when Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling was forced out for racist comments in 2014, and again in the summer of 2016, when he condemned the killing of African Americans by police. Recently, with NFL players, coaches and owners choosing to make a statement during national anthems across the country, and the NBA in the spotlight because of President Trump’s “uninvite” of the
Golden State Warriors to the White House, Jordan added his voice. “One of the fundamental rights this country is founded on was freedom of
speech, and we have a long tradition of nonviolent, peaceful protest. Those who exercise the right to peacefully express themselves should not be demonized or ostracized,” he said in a statement. “At a time of increasing divisiveness and hate in this country, we should be looking for ways to work together and support each other and not create more division. I support Commissioner Adam Silver, the NBA, its players and all those who wish to exercise their right to free speech.”

RAMS AND CHARGERS HAVE HOME GAMES ON SATURDAY By Steve Finley The Rams and Chargers will open their home pre-season schedule Saturday. The Rams play the Oakland Raiders at 1 p.m. at the Coliseum and the Chargers battle the Seattle Seahawks at 7 p.m. at the StubHub Center at 7 p.m. Both teams lost their opening day pre-season games last week so they are looking to get on the winning track on Saturday. Both teams are expected to play better but once again they will have to rely on the bench players because the starters will play limited minutes. The Rams will be trying to find a capable backup for quarterback Jared Goff. Sean Mannion is the backup now but their two other quarterbacks in the Ram’s camp are pushing Mannion. Another position that is open is at linebacker. The Chargers are also trying to find a capable backup for starter Phillip Rivers. At the moment their backups, Gino Smith and Cardale Jones are in a tight battle but right now Smith appears to have the edge. Both teams will have some tough cuts to make during the next few weeks of the pre-season. The biggest challenge for both teams will be to make the right decisions. One or two bad decisions can make a big difference between success or failure in 2018.
The Rams and defensive tackle Michael Brockers will take on the Raiders at the Coliseum Saturday at 1 p.m. This will be their second pre-season game after their loss to the Baltimore Ravens last week.
The Los Angeles Football Club defender Steven Beitashour,on the ground, interrupts a pass to Philadelphia forward Fafa Picault during a game this year at the Banc of California Stadium. The LAFC faces Colorado at home on Saturday at 7:30 p.m.
Linebacker Hayes Pullard and the rest of the Chargers will host the Seattle Seahawks at the StubHub Center Saturday at 7 p.m. for their second pre-season game of the year. Pullard played his high school football at Crenshaw and his college football at USC and he is from Inglewood.

MICHAEL JORDAN’S $7 MILLION Continued from page 5
In a lengthy statement given to The Undefeated in July 2016, Jordan wrote of the need to “find solutions that ensure people of color receive fair and equal treatment AND that police officers — who put their lives on the line every day to protect us all — are respected and supported.” Jordan added that he was donating $1 million each to the International Association of Chiefs of Police’s newly established Institute
for Community-Police Relations and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. Jordan was vocal about the North Carolina “bathroom bill” that cost Charlotte the 2017 All-Star Game. Similarly, he did not remain silent in the face of Sterling’s racist comments, saying he was “completely outraged.” “We are privileged to live in the world’s greatest country — a country that has provided my family and me the great-
est of opportunities,” his Undefeated post said. “The problems we face didn’t happen overnight and they won’t be solved tomorrow, but if we all work together, we can foster greater understanding, positive change and create a more peaceful world for ourselves, our children, our families and our communities.”
TRUMP CALLS OMAROSA MANIGAULT NEWMAN ‘THAT DOG’ IN HIS LATEST INSULT
YOUTH ORCHESTRA LOS ANGELES Continued from page 1
Francis Taylor, Asst. Editor
Omarosa Manigault Newman has made numerous television appearance to promote her book. NBC released a tape that Ms. Manigault Newman made of her speaking to Mr. Trump that she said was recorded the day after she was fired. President Trump added his former White House aide, Omarosa Manigault Newman, on Tuesday to the growing list of African-Americans he has publicly denigrated on Twitter, calling her “that dog” and a “crazed, crying lowlife” after her allegations against him of mental deterioration and racism. Even for a president who consistently uses Twitter to assail his adversaries, the morning tweet about Manigault Newman was a remarkably crude use of the presidential bully pulpit to disparage a woman who once served at the highest levels in his White House.
In an interview on MSNBC, Manigault Newman responded that Mr. Trump treats women differently from men because he “believes they are beneath him” and that he talked in derogatory ways about minorities. “He has absolutely no respect for women, for African-Americans,” she said. In recent weeks, Mr. Trump has called Don Lemon, a CNN anchor, “the dumbest man on television.” He has questioned the intelligence of LeBron James, a star basketball player for the Los Angeles Lakers. And he has repeatedly said that Representative Maxine Waters, Democrat of California, has a “low I.Q.” Mr. Trump has also deployed the “dog” insult for white people, including Arianna Huffington, a founder of HuffPost. During the 2016 presidential campaign,
Mr. Trump tweeted that a onetime political rival and fellow Republican, Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, “lies like a dog.” Tuesday morning’s tweet was the latest in what has become an increasingly per-
sonal and malicious stream of Twitter posts from Mr. Trump, many of which are responses to his critics or aimed at questioning the integrity of the continuing investigation into Russian interfer-

ence in the 2016 election and whether Mr. Trump or his aides were complicit in it. In recent days, the president has again used Twitter to lash out at his attorney general, Jeff Sessions, and at an F.B.I. agent who helped oversee the Russia investigation and who was fired for sending texts critical of Mr. Trump. Mr. Trump’s advisers and allies described the tweet about Manigault Newman, in particular, as a reaction to the accusations that she makes about the president in “Unhinged,” her tell-all book about her year in the West Wing. Scholars called it an ugly historical echo of the country’s racial divisions. “It’s important to understand the legacy, the history of the attack on black intelligence as a way of justifying our dehumanization,” said Eddie S. Glaude
Jr., the chairman of the African-American studies department at Princeton University. He said there was “something deeply racial” about the way Mr. Trump described Ms. Manigault Newman on Tuesday. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the White House press secretary, disputed the idea that Mr. Trump’s tweet about Manigault Newman was driven by racial animus, and defended the president by pointing out his willingness to lash out at people of all races. Manigault Newman has hinted that she has additional tape recordings and it has been reported that some White House personnel are concerned about what those tapes may contain. Stay tuned!
Prevention is key to maintaining good oral health!
Tips on how to brush properly: -
-
Brush for TWO WHOLE MINUTES Use short, back-and-forth and up-and-down strokes Pay special attention to your gum line, back teeth, and areas around any fillings or restoration Clean the inner and outer surfaces of your upper teeth first and then your lower teeth Brush or scrape you tongue to help prevent bad breath
Don’t forget to floss! Brushing and flossing is like peanut butter and jelly – when you think of one you can’t help but think of the other. It may seem tedious, but flossing every day is one of the best things you can do for your oral health.
