Voters Are By Kenneth Miller, Publisher

America is more divided after the most consequential election in our history, one that inspired more than 150 million people to exercise their precious right to cast a ballot for the candidate of their choice, than they were before it. For four excruciating days, combing through all of our television channels hoping for any finality to an election that much like four years ago pundits forecast that the Democratic candidate would be a sure bet, but was anything but. What we learned was that the only sure thing is no sure thing, especially since Donald J. Trump strolled down the golden staircase at Trump Tower in New York to announce that he would be entering in the realm of politics in 2015. While most scoffed that he was a celebrity stunt that would quickly be gone, it turned out to be a foundation reckoning of our democratic norms as we knew them and to his credit he exposed the system of America for the world to see and it is flawed, tainted, racist and wicked. It is a system that many of us were blinded to before as our public servants, some of them, did the best to navigate it to for the purpose of serving their constituents. Trump turned the system on its head as any political novice and professional con man could, and after Joe Biden protected the Blue wall and eked out a victory for decency and a return to a normalcy that we scorned before, we sure as hell hope to get back there soon. Instead of accepting the will of the people vote in the election that favored Biden and his historical Vice President elect Kamala Harris, Trump is instead digging in for one Continued on page 2

Mayor James T. Butts Jr. By Mayor James T. Butts Jr., Exclusive for Inglewood Today

Inglewood is fortunate to have someone of the experience and decisiveness of Senator Holly Mitchell as our next County Supervisor for our district. With the reelection of Assemblywomen Sydney KamlagerDove and Autumn Burke along with Senator Steve Bradford, Inglewood

will continue to receive the support we need as we transform into a worldwide destination city. Furthermore the reelection of Eloy Morales will allow the City to continue tap the decision making and institutional knowledge of the longest serving Councilman in the history of Inglewood. We also welcome our newest Councilwoman for District 4, Dionne Faulk to the leadership and policy team

of Inglewood. She will be only the 2nd elected Councilwoman in the history of Inglewood. Finally, the City Clerk’s office will be in good hands with the election of Aisha Thompson who was elected with over 70% of the vote. Her long-term service as the Deputy City Clerk will allow a smooth transition from the leadership of City Clerk Yvonne Horton who will be sorely missed.

Rams host Wounded Warriors in Honor of Veterans Day By Kenneth Miller, Publisher

Victorville Army Veteran John Chambliss Jr. said the opportunity to play Madden video football against Rams players in honor of Veterans Day on Nov. 11 at SoFi Stadium is a moment that he will relish for the rest of his life. Chambliss served in The United

States Army from 2002 until 2008 and then served in the National Guard from 2008 until retiring in 2013. “It just means a lost that they would remember us Veterans past and present and to bring us out here to their stadium play a video game and hang out personnel and players,” Chambliss told Inglewood Today. “ It means a lot to the

Election 2020: Results Show California May Not Be That Liberal After All

Quinci LeGardye | California Black Media

California’s unofficial 2020 proposition results have shown an electorate that is fairly moderate, supportive of business interests and concerned about issues affecting older citizens. It also showed that there is limited support for progressive policies. Initiatives a majority of African Americans and young Californians supported such as affirmative action and rent control also fell short. Prop 16, the ballot initiative to reinstate affirmative action programs in California, failed with 56 % of voters voting no. The proposition would have allowed public universities and state and local governments to consider race, sex, ethnicity and national origin in their hiring, contracting or admission decisions. Although supporters of the proposition argued that it would increase racial equity in the state, it faced heavy opposition. With the no vote, affirmative action is still banned in California. The most recent attempt at rent control also failed, with 60 % of voters rejecting Prop 21. The initiative would have allowed local governments to enact rent control on housing built over 15 years ago, while exempting landlords who own no more than two properties. Instead, California’s statewide ban on new forms of rent control will stay in effect, at a time when millions of Americans are struggling with rent or facing eviction due to the COVID-19

pandemic. After months of high spending and heated debate, Proposition 22 passed with over eight million yes votes, as of Nov. 8. Gig economy companies including Uber, Lyft and DoorDash are now exempt from AB 5, the California law that classifies workers. The companies will be allowed to continue classifying their drivers as independent contractors. The Yes on 22 campaign received over $202 million in contributions, making Prop 22 the most expensive ballot initiative campaign in California history. According to Ballotpedia, the top five donors for Yes on 22 were Uber, DoorDash, Lyft, InstaCart and Postmates, with Uber and Lyft spending over $50 million each. Voters also struck down Prop 23, which would have required dialysis

clinics to have at least one licensed physician on site during treatment. Opponents of the proposition had argued that the ballot initiative’s passage would force multiple clinics to reduce hours or shut down due to the increased hiring costs. Voters said no to rolling back previous criminal justice reforms, rejecting Prop 20 by the widest margin, with 62 percent of voters voting no on upgrading several crimes to violent felonies and upgrading some theft crimes to be chargeable as either misdemeanors or felonies. Voters also rejected replacing money bail with a risk assessment system, with 55 % voting no on Prop 25. Although it was billed as an attempt at serious bail reform, multiple social justice groups had concerns that the risk assessment system would lead to increased racial

final scare that will bare the system to a bit more of bone. Essentially, Trump is doing what Hillary Clinton would not do, go full blast in any vague zeal to win and continue to erode the system to its core. Many of the same pundits who predicted that I would not endure the sleepless nights of 2016 all over again says that he has no chance to over turn an election and that eventually he will be gone from the White House. However, Trump albeit evidently dangerous, is not the gravest challenge that we as a nation have before us. We should be most concerned about 72,293,492 million people who have decided the follow him to cliffs edge. Many of them are Blacks, Hispanics, racist, doctors, lawyers, athletes, celebrities, casino moguls, sports team owners and outright gun toting segregationist who are willing to die for what they believe in. My hope is that President elect Joe Biden can convince many of them that America is a place for everyone of every shade, religious background, gender, rich and poor to reside in harmony. Donald J. Trump may soon become a footnote in all of this eventually, we pray…we hope, but one thing is clear it will not be without more destruction to the foundation of the republic.

profiling against Black and Brown suspects awaiting trial. Two propositions this year focused on voter rights. Prop 17 passed with 59 % of yes votes, giving parolees the right to vote upon release from incarceration. With Prop 17’s passage, tens of thousands of predominately Black and Brown parolees have regained their voting rights. However, Prop 18 fell short, with 55 % of voters saying no to allowing 17-year-olds to vote in primaries if they turn eighteen by the next general election. In both of this year’s propositions related to property taxes, voters resisted tax increases. Prop 15, which proposed an increase on property taxes for commercial properties to fund education and local governments, failed by a margin of about 425,000 votes as of Nov. 8. Prop 19 passed, with 51 % of the vote approving tax breaks for property tax assessment transfers for homeowners over 55 years old, people with severe disabilities and victims of natural disasters. Voters approved Prop 24, to strengthen the California Consumer Privacy Act and establish and limit the use of sensitive consumer data among businesses. Also, Prop 14 passed, approving the issue of $5.5 billion in state bonds to fund stem cell and other medical research.

it just thankful. Feel like you’re appreciated and words can’t explain what they are doing for us today.” The Rams invited two veterans with the Wounded Warrior Project to SoFi Stadium to participate in a Madden 21 gaming match with Rams Offensive Guard Austin Corbett and Defensive Lineman Morgan Fox. The match was be played on the stadium videoboard and each of the Rams players participated virtually over Zoom. The players and Veterans were

displayed on the stadium’s 70,000 square foot videoboard while the veterans are positioned on the field level of the stadium. Veterans Day honors all of those who have served the country in war or peace — dead or alive — although it’s largely intended to thank living veterans for their sacrifices. It was originally called Armistice Day, commemorating the end of World War I.

Covered California officially launches open enrollment Free masks offered for encouragement during COVID IT News Wire

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Covered California officially kicked off its annual open-enrollment period on Monday with a statewide effort to encourage Californians to protect themselves, their families and their friends from the COVID-19 pandemic by wearing a mask and signing up for health care coverage. The campaign includes sending face masks, emblazoned with the message “Get Covered/Stay Covered,” to every Covered California enrollee who is renewing their coverage as well as all new enrollees. “The pandemic shines a light on the importance of health insurance and access to quality care, and now is the time when people can sign up for coverage through Covered California,” said Peter V. Lee, executive director of Covered California. “We will be reaching into every corner of the state to encourage Californians to keep

COVID-safe and to get health coverage now.” An estimated 1.2 million uninsured people in the state are either eligible for financial help through the exchange, or they qualify for low-cost or no-cost coverage through Medi-Cal.

“Covered California opens the door to quality care by making financial assistance available to help Californians get the coverage they need. Now is the time to get covered and stay covered,” said Gov. Gavin Newsom.

Sonya Young Aadam, CEO of the California’s Black Women’s Health Project, joined the panel of distinguished guests and spoke about the importance of health care, particularly in the Black community. “We advocate statewide for policies and practices that address the social and system determinates of health and the elimination of disparities in the health outcomes for Black women, families and communities. Continued access and coverage under Covered California are of paramount importance in addressing disparities, especially those that have been exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Aadam.

Implications of the Presidential Election and Context of Supreme Court Hearing The launch of the statewide campaign comes in the midst of two critical developments regarding the future of the Affordable Care Act. Most importantly, President-elect Joe Biden campaigned on two core health care issues — responding effectively to the COVID pandemic and building on the health care law to make it work better, including expanding financial help and coverage options for millions of Americans. California has been on the forefront nationally of implementing and protecting the Affordable Care Act. While the inauguration of Biden will take place after open enrollment has closed for much of the nation, Californians will be able to sign up through Jan. 31.

Sports & Entertainment First Look: Rams return from bye week to host Seahawks

By Stu Jackson, Therams.com

The Rams (5-3) resume divisional play this week hosting the Seattle Seahawks (6-2) on Sunday, looking to get back on track after a disappointing loss to the Miami Dolphins. Kickoff from SoFi Stadium in Inglewood is scheduled for 1:25 p.m. on FOX. In advance of the contest, here is your first look at Rams-Seahawks on Nov. 15, including notable Seahawks additions, some of Seattle’s top statistical performers in Week 9 and key storylines: Notable Seahawks additions Acquired All-Pro and Pro Bowl safety Jamal Adams (and a 2022 fourth-round pick) in a trade with the New York Jets in July in exchange for their 2021 first and third-round picks, a 2022 first-rounder, and safety Bradley McDougald. Adams was sidelined for four games due to a groin injury sustained in Week 3 against the Cowboys but returned last week. In the four games Adams has been healthy, he’s registered 28 total tackles, 3.5 sacks and one pass breakup. Acquired Pro Bowl defensive end Carlos Dunlap in a trade with the

Cincinnati Bengals on Oct. 28 in exchange for center B.J. Finney and a 2021 seventh-round pick. Brought in to improve Seattle’s pass rush, 31-year-old Dunlap posted five total tackles (three for loss), one sack and two quarterback hits in his Seahawks debut last week. Top performers in Week 9 QB Russell Wilson completed 28 of 41 pass attempts for 390 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions in the Seahawks’ 44-34 loss to the Bills, also adding a four-yard rushing touchdown to his stat line. Wilson also lost both of his fumbles. With starter Chris Carson (foot) and backup Carlos Hyde (hamstring) each missing their second consecutive game due to injury, rookie RB DeeJay Dallas got the start against Buffalo, tallying seven carries for 31 yards and one touchdown plus two catches for eight yards. Travis Homer added six carries for 16 yards and three receptions for 64 yards. WR D.K. Metcalf led Seattle receivers with seven receptions for 108 yards and one touchdown. Fellow receiver David Moore (four receptions for 71 yards) was on the receiving end

of Wilson’s other passing touchdown. S Quinton Dunbar, CB Tre Flowers and LB Bobby Wagner led the Seahawks’ defense with six total tackles each. Besides Dunlap’s performance, Adams posted 1.5 sacks and DT Jarran Reed 2.5. On special teams, K Jason Myers made both of his field goal attempts (long of 45) and all four of his extra point attempts. Early storylines to watch, and what they mean for the Rams With the Seahawks, Cardinals and 49ers all losing in Week 9, Week 10 presents a massive opportunity for the Rams when it comes to the NFC West. In fact, a win would move Los Angeles into a tie with Seattle for first place in the division, though an Arizona win could also make it a three-way tie. Standing in the Rams’ way of what would be an optimal start to the second half of the season, though, is an early NFL MVP candidate who has given opposing defenses fits. Seahawks fans, for more than a year, have been begging for their team to “Let Russ Cook,” or allow the signalcaller to play with his fourth-quarter

aggressiveness from the onset of a game rather than toward the end of it. The result through the first eight weeks: The NFL’s top passing offense in 2020, with Wilson averaging 317.6 yards per game. His 28 passing touchdowns lead the league and are three shy of his total in 16 games last season. Consequently, Sunday’s game will require an extra-disciplined effort by the Rams’ pass rush and secondary and place an increased emphasis on creating takeaways. The Cardinals picked off Wilson three times in Week 7, and though they were unable to capitalize on the first two, the third led to their game-winning field goal in overtime, a 34-31 victory. The Bills scored 16 points – three field goals, one touchdown – off Wilson’s turnovers in their 44-34 Week 9 victory, the points and the timeliness of those takeaways helping prevent a Seahawks comeback. If the Rams can do the same – they have shown they are capable against other opponents this season – it will help their chances of winning on Sunday.

With the bye week getting underway, it’s a good time to get a sense of the state of the Rams after their first eight games. Here’s a look at where they rank in key statistical categories on offense, defense and special teams, plus Los Angeles head coach Sean McVay’s assessment of each unit from his Monday video conference. Sean McVay on Rams at the bye week Offense No. 8 in Total Offense (396.4 yards per game)

No. 13 in Pass Offense (258.6) No. 7 in Rushing Offense (137.8) No. 21 in Scoring Offense (24.1 points per game) McVay: “I think offensively it’s been up and down. Yesterday, obviously being as frustrating as it is, it was such a weird game where there’s a lot of positives on some of the early downs and really what it boiled down to was our inability to be able to consistently handle when they were bringing some of their zero-pressures, like I talked about after the game yesterday and Continued on page 6

The Lion Queen AMBITIOUS

GIRL

By Michelle Lyons, Columnist

On January 21, 2019 Senator Kamala Harris announced her campaign for Presidency on Good Morning America. Eleven months later, November 2019, I decided to volunteer for her, “Kamala Harris For The People”. My aunt at the time told me she did not care for Kamala “She’s too ambitious,” she said. I, then, wondered what my aunt thought about me, a Black woman with a business for four years outside of Beverly Hills who speaks several languages. “Too Ambitious? What does that say about me?, I asked her. Often times Black women are overlooked. Therefore, we are “all” too ambitious because in an American Society we are repeatedly up against all odds, like Maya Angelou said, “Still [We] Rise”. I want to raise my daughter in a world where women are unbounded like Jennifer Lopez and fearless like Kamala Harris because for far too often women have been taught to be less than. Often women dumb themselves down to make their male counterparts feel superior, and as a result we are left with a society that is not maximizing its productivity. However, when women break barriers men then power themselves to break barriers also. I have never dated a guy that did not become drastically more ambitious just by dating me. After all, “A man with dreams needs a woman with vision”. Often times, women are the ones that see the unknown and help manifest it. Kamala Harris as our next Vice President will send a clear message to the rest of the world because she will motivate women, and all the women will motivate the men and children. Michelle Obama said it best, “Our future is only as bright as our girls”. We can now start calling America Sirius A, the brightest star in the sky, thanks to an ambitious girl.

I thought we covered really well. We knew we were going to have to do the same thing against (Dolphins WR) Jakeem Grant, a really dangerous returner and we didn’t do that. It’s a great challenge for us to really be able to focus on coming off of the bye, but it’s kind of where I see us right now.”

that’s what it boiled down to.” “You give them credit, they did a nice job, but three of our four turnovers came on that and they in essence got 21 of their 28 points off of those turnovers based on the short field where they score a touchdown, one of those drives ends up starting on the 1-yard line and then the other one on the 33 (yard line) which was their longest offensive drive that led to points for the Dolphins offense yesterday, all of which resulted in turnovers from the offense, giving the Dolphins’ offense short fields.” “We’ve got to be better. It’s something that we’ll look at and we’ll be able to address moving forward, but that’s the beauty of this game – is you’ve got to be able to address it, you’ve got to be able to move forward.
