Black women Lee, Mayes cruise to election wins

by Rob Taylor Jr. Courier Staff Writer

Congresswoman Summer Lee and state Rep. La'Tasha D. Mayes both had challengers in the May 19 Primary Election for the Democratic nomination for Pa.'s 12th Congressional district and Pa.'s 24th House district, respectively.

But in the end, there really was no competition.

The two Black women,

fully entrenched in the communities they serve, went on to landslide victories in the May 19 Primary Election. U.S. Rep. Lee won with 81 percent of the vote to challenger William Parker's 18 percent. As for state Rep. Mayes, she won with nearly 88 percent of the vote to challenger William Anderson's nearly 12 percent. Both of the challengers to Congresswoman Lee and state Rep. Mayes were Black men.

“I want to express my gratitude to all of the voters in my district who overwhelmingly gave me their support in this Primary Election,” said Rep. Mayes, in a statement to the New Pittsburgh Courier. “Thank you for your belief and confidence in my leadership and for sharing in our collective vision of progress and prosperity for District 24.

Memorial Day started with freed Blacks decorating soldiers’ graves in 1865

by Erick Johnson

(Editor’s Note: This story originally was published in the Chicago Crusader on May 25, 2017.)

The date was May 1, 1865. One year after Arlington National Cemetery was founded in Virginia, another cemetery 532 miles south was becoming part of history. Located in Charleston, SC, it was the final resting place of over 200 soldiers of color who died during the Civil War. What happened some 152 years ago would remain buried for over a century until David Blight, a renowned Yale University professor, scholar and author, discovered that Blacks founded what is now known to millions of Americans as Memorial Day. Erased from history, it’s a story that has stirred mixed emotions and jolted the pride of White cities, some of which for decades have claimed to be the birthplace of one of the nation’s most hallowed holidays.

None of these claims included the Black narrative, but what was once Union Cemetery is now a sprawling, 60-acre park in predominantly White Charleston, which amid lush gardens, ponds, a gazebo and fountain sits a bronze plaque acknowledging the park as the site of the first Memorial Day and where thousands decorated the graves of Black soldiers who were re-buried there after Confederate soldiers interred them in a mass grave in 1865.

The soldiers’ families held a parade and decorated the graves on May 1, 1865.

Back then, it was an event that was known as “Decoration Day.” Today, the holiday is known as Memorial Day, after Congress passed a law in 1968. The move made Memorial Day an official federal holiday that went into effect in 1971.

Today, Memorial Day is considered the unofficial start of summer as beaches and theme parks around the country open for the season. While the holiday has become a time for picnics and backyard barbeques, Memorial Day is still considered a solemn time to honor fallen war heroes.

For many Black veterans, the day can be bittersweet as they honor a nation’s heroes after experiencing decades of racism and discrimination in America.

Despite integration and civil rights gains, many Blacks struggle to feel ac-

cepted as Americans because their history is often not included or is shut out of the national narrative.

In 2001, Blight published his award-winning book, “Race and Reunion: The Civil War in American Memory.”

Blight, who spoke to the Crusader during a telephone conversation from the Ivy League school in New Haven, CT, says the book capped years of research that began when he found records about Blacks during the Civil War at one archive at Harvard University. There, he found a story from the New York Herald Tribune about Blacks celebrating and honoring the war dead. He said the old newspaper clipping was on a piece of cardboard in a file labeled, “First Decoration Day,” the same title Blight used for his article that was published in several newspapers.

Vivid in detail, the book includes notes of the New York Herald Tribune reporter’s personal account of the celebrations that led to today’s most eye-opening event: Blacks decorating the graves of their fallen soldiers who had been reburied in what was then called Union Cemetery, which is today Hampton Park.

Historical reports indicate that between 90,000 to 179,000 Black soldiers fought during the Civil War; of this number, 40,000 died.

Blight stated that during the final year of the war, Confederate soldiers in Charleston in 1865 had converted the Washington Race Course and Jockey Club—a former plantation—into an outdoor prison. Horrible conditions existed there for Black Union soldiers. After they died from exposure to diseases, the Black soldiers were hastily buried in a mass grave behind the grandstand.

Blight noted that, “Twenty-eight Black workmen went to the site, re-buried the Union dead properly and built a high fence around the cemetery. They whitewashed the fence and built an archway over the entrance on which they inscribed the words, ‘Martyrs of the Race Course.’”

The burial ground became known as Union Cemetery.

In May 1865, seven days before President Abraham Lincoln declared the end of the Civil War with his Emancipation Proclamation, freed Blacks in Charleston, SC were already celebrating the defeat of Robert E. Lee and his Confederacy. Whites in Charleston had abandoned the city to escape the war, but Blacks had remained.

About 10,000 Blacks, in cooperation with White missionaries, “staged an unforgettable parade on the slaveholders’ race course.”

The 54th Massachusetts U.S. Colored Troops, the infantry where Denzel Washington portrayed a fearless, but tormented leader in the movie, “Glory,” was among a full brigade of troops marching up Charleston’s prominent Meeting Street.

Following the solemn dedication, Blight said in his reports, the crowd held picnics, listened to speeches

and watched the 54th Massachusetts and the 34th and 104th Colored Troops perform a special double-column march around Union Cemetery.

“This was the first Memorial Day [Monday, May 1, 1865],” wrote Blight in Race and Reunion. “African Americans invented Memorial Day in Charleston, SC. What you have there is Black Americans freed from slavery announcing to the world with their flowers, their feet and their songs what the war had been about. What they basically were creating was the Independence Day of a Second American Revolution.”

The official birthplace of Memorial Day was declared in 1966, when President Lyndon B. Johnson chose the town of Waterloo, NY because it hosted an annual, community-wide event, during which businesses closed and residents decorated the graves of soldiers with flowers and flags.

However, many historians agree that Memorial Day’s origins are deeply rooted in the Civil War and Blight’s account of the first celebration in Charleston has gained the attention of scholars and mainstream news organizations.

Union Cemetery is no longer a burial site. The graves were eventually removed and reinterred in the 1880s to a national cemetery in Beaufort, SC. The former Union Cemetery became a zoo in 1932, before it became Hampton Park in 1975. The old racetrack— an oval roadway—is still there.

A plaque commemorating the site as the place where Blacks held the first Memorial Day was dedicated on May 31, 2010.

The statue was created by Ed Dwight, a former NASA astronaut applicant, who also created the statue in front of the Harold Washington Cultural Center in Chicago’s Bronzeville neighborhood.

Near a reflecting pool at Hampton Park is a plaque commemorating the site as the place where Blacks held the first Memorial Day on May 1, 1865. It was dedicated on May 31, 2010.

It was an extraordinary proclamation, considering Charleston is a predominantly white city and the park is named after Confederate Gen. Wade Hampton III, one of the biggest slaveholders in the South at the time.

During the dedication of the plaque, the city’s mayor, Joe Riley, was present to celebrate the historic occasion which included a brass band and a reenactment of the Massachusetts 54th Regiment.

Dot S. Scott, the president of the NAACP branch in Charleston, attended the 2010 dedication.

“It was a revelation because I wasn’t aware of it,” she told the Crusader.“ I was thinking, all these Black soldiers were being memorialized there, and it was like going to graves of people who you didn’t know at all.”

This Week In Black History

A Courier Staple • MAY 27

1958—Ernest Green graduates from Little Rock, Ark.’s Central High School, becoming the first Black to do so. Green was a member of the “Little Rock Nine”—the group of Black students who first integrated the high school with the aid of federal troops.

2010—The Institute on Assets and Social Policy at Brandeis University releases a stunning study showing that the typical White household had accumulated 20 times as much wealth as the typical Black household.

According to the study, median White family wealth stood at roughly $100,000 while median Black family wealth was estimated at $5,000.

• MAY 28

1936—Betty Shabazz, the widow of Black nationalist leader Malcolm X, was born on this day in Detroit, Mich.

Shabazz was born Betty Jean Sanders and raised by foster parents. She attended Tuskegee Institute (now university) and became a registered nurse. In 1994, she created a national controversy when she linked Nation of Islam leader Min. Louis Farrakhan to the assassination of Malcolm X. However, she and Farrakhan reconciled in 1995 and she spoke at the historic Million Man March. She died June 23, 1997 as a result of injuries received in a house fire set by her grandson.

2010—A book is released revealing that during the mid-1970s when much of the world was lining up to help overthrow racist White minority rule in South Africa, Israel was attempting to aid the racist regime up to the point of providing it with chemical and nuclear weapons for possible use against the country’s majority Black population. The documents were discovered by American scholar Sasha Polakow-Suransky while researching the book “The Unspoken Alliance: Israel’s Secret Relationship with Apartheid South Africa.”

Though seldom mentioned by American media, it was an open secret during the 1970s that Israel was one of the Apartheid regime’s closest allies. Apartheid is what the minority White government called its system of racial oppression.

• MAY 29

1854—Escaped slave and abolitionist Sojourner Truth delivers her famous “Ain’t I a Woman” speech at the Ohio Women’s Rights Convention in Akron. Truth, born Isabella Baumfree, had been physically and sexually abused by various slave owners and their wives in New York. She sought refuge in religion. She finally escaped after her last slave owner reneged on a promise to free her.

She became the leading female abolitionist of the period giving powerful speeches. She traveled widely in her anti-slavery mission telling friends “The spirit calls me and I must go.”

1865—President Andrew Johnson announces his Reconstruction program after the Civil War. However, Johnson was one of the greatest betrayers of Blacks in American history.

He went back on many of the promises made to the former slaves by the recently assassinated Abraham Lincoln. Indeed, Johnson’s Reconstruction program was more favorable to the former slave owners and Confederate soldiers than it was to the ex-slaves. Johnson even opposed granting Blacks voting rights.

• MAY 30

1822—What could have been the largest and most elaborate slave rebellion in American history is betrayed by a house slave seeking favors from his White master. The rebellion was organized by Denmark Vesey and involved thousands of Blacks in the Charleston, S.C., area.

Vesey was actually a free man who had purchased his freedom. He was doing a thriving business as owner of a carpentry shop. But he had secretly vowed “not to rest until all slaves are free.” The betrayal of the Vesey plot by a house slave resulted in dozens of people, including four Whites, being arrested and many of them were eventually hanged. Vesey was put to death on June 23, 1822.

1903—One of the most outstanding poets in the history of Black America, Countee Cullen, is born in Louisville, Ky., or Baltimore, Md. The exact city

of his birth is still debated. However, he was raised in New York City and rose to fame in the early 1920s and became a leading figure in the Harlem Renaissance. Cullen married, but there were persistent rumors that he was a closet homosexual resulting from his troubled childhood including being abandoned by his mother. He died in 1946 of high blood pressure and what was then called uremic poisoning or acute kidney failure.

• MAY 31

1870—Congress passes the first Enforcement Act providing stiff punishment for both private citizens and public officials who conspired to deprive the recently freed slaves of either their civil rights or their right to vote. The Act was in response to the old plantation aristocracy and the defeated rebel soldiers who were taking control of Southern governments and enacting “Black Codes” aimed at the suppression of Black freedoms and voting rights. The Act was also in response to the growing power of White terrorist organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan.

1921—The infamous and bloody Tulsa (Oklahoma) Riots begin. Whites go on a violent rampage lasting several days. When the rioting was over, an estimated 21 Whites and 60 Blacks were dead. In addition, as many as 15,000 Blacks were left homeless as hundreds of homes and businesses were burned to the ground. The area bearing the brunt of the destruction was known as the “Black Wall Street” because of its large number of African American owned businesses. As recently as 2007, Detroit Congressman John Conyers was working on legislation designed to give the few remaining Black survivors of the rioting additional time to sue in order to recover some of their loses. The rioting was reportedly sparked by a false claim from a White female elevator operator of being assaulted by a Black man. But White jealousy of Black success in the Tulsa area may have also played a major role.

• JUNE 1

1835—The Fifth National Negro Convention convenes in Philadelphia, Pa. The gathering of free Blacks demonstrated how history can sometimes come full circle. One major focus of the convention was to urge Blacks to stop referring to themselves as “Africans,” “Blacks” or “Coloreds” and instead adopt the word “Negro” as the official racial designation. Gradually, the designation became popular even though all Blacks did not agree with it. Researcher Richard Benjamin Moore writes that at the time some Blacks felt word “Negro” was “a symptom of the degrading sickness of opportunism and the increasing acceptance of inferior social and political status.”

1864—Solomon George Washington Dill is murdered by angry Whites.

Dill was one of those rarities in Southern society—a poor White man who supported an end to slavery and Black demands for social justice.

Dill’s “crime” was giving what some Whites considered “an incendiary speech” to a group of South Carolina Blacks.

1973—Detroit’s WGPR becomes the nation’s first Black-owned television station. It was granted a license to operate on this day in 1973 but did not actually go on air until September 1975.

• JUNE 2

1863—Abolitionist and “Underground Railroad Conductor” Harriet Tubman leads a force of Union Army guerrilla soldiers into Maryland and frees more than 700 slaves. Tubman was one of the most noteworthy women in the anti-slavery struggle prior to the Civil War and became a leading voice in the call for the federal government to allow Blacks to fight in the war.

1899—African Americans observe a “National Day of Fasting” to protest lynching and other racial attacks against Blacks. The day of protest was called by the National Afro-American Council.

Black women Lee, Mayes cruise to election wins ELECTION FROM A1

As we head towards November, I will continue to fight for our families, our freedoms and our future in Pennsylvania, and I will continue to earn your vote and the opportunity to represent our district in our state's Capitol.”

While Rep. Mayes and Congresswoman Lee will

have challengers on the Republican side in the General Election this November, it's basically a formality that they'll prevail in their heavily-Democratic districts. As of now, Rep. Mayes is running unopposed in her 24th district come November.

Congresswoman Lee will be up against Republican

challenger James Hayes, another Black man. He practically ran unopposed for the Republican nomination on May 19, and so, the two African Americans will face-off once again in November. In November 2024 when the two were up for election for Pa.'s 12th Congressional district, U.S. Rep. Lee, the incumbent,

won with 61 percent of the vote to Hayes' 39 percent.

In the Democratic nomination for Pa. Governor/ Lt. Governor, there was/is no discussion. Josh Shapiro and Austin Davis, the current governor and lieutenant governor, very easily won their races. The race for governor in the November General Election will

be Gov. Shapiro against Republican Stacy Garrity.

“Serving the Pittsburgh community for over 25 years has been an honor," Rep. Mayes said in a statement to the Courier. "And I am so excited to keep doing the critical work to improve the lives of my constituents and neighbors. From advocating for family-first

health care and fighting for an economy where everyone can afford to live and thrive, to ensuring working families can secure access to quality, affordable childcare, I will continue delivering for the people of the 24th every day.”

Sheldon Ingram—on to his next chapter INGRAM FROM A1

of his friends and colleagues at WTAE. A few hours later, he’ll head to the Pittsburgh Public Theater, Downtown, to star in the New Horizon Theater play, "Coconut Cake." It's the opening night for the play, a 7:30 p.m. showtime.

Sheldon Ingram. Going from one stage to another.

"My first acting job was in 1990 in Norfolk, Virginia," Ingram told the New Pittsburgh Courier exclusively, May 25. "I did, 'A Soldier’s Story' —my first-ever acting performance."

Ingram said the director who got him the acting gig in 1990, he saw again 30 years later, in 2020. That same director cast him in another play in 2020, "and it was after that, that I wanted to commit myself to acting," Ingram said.

That's when Ingram embarked on a rigorous, 16-month training in acting. "Not just the skill of acting, but the business of acting," Ingram said. "May 2022 is when I launched myself professionally as an actor and then started booking roles right away."

Ingram found himself in a dark suit and tie, playing the role of a deputy mayor on NBC's "Law & Order: SVU." He earned more roles, as a gynecologist in "The Deliverance," and as a pediatric surgeon on "Gaslit by My Husband: The Morgan Metzer Story."

In the past few years, he was seen in local the-

ater, whether it was for Pittsburgh Playwrights, Becoming Arts Collective, or New Horizon Theater.

Ingram was getting local roles, national TV/ film roles and working the dayshift as a reporter for WTAE. Seems like a lot to juggle, but Ingram was all in.

"I was doing everything," Ingram told the Courier. "It was a grind, but I like that kind of juice, I like staying busy, staying on my feet, keeping it moving, so that kind of busy schedule is...I enjoy it."

Stepping away from WTAE, the place he's worked since 1992, affords him the opportunity to not only pursue acting full-time, but the ability to accept any acting role he desires, anywhere, anytime.

Ingram, the Atlantic City, N.J., native, was in TV news in Atlanta, Chattanooga, Tenn., and Norfolk before coming to Pittsburgh.

"I came up here to do the interview, got the gig, and everything else is history," Ingram said, reflecting on a 40-year career in TV news, the last 34 in Pittsburgh.

“Sheldon Ingram has been one of the most trusted journalists in our newsroom for more than three decades,” said WTAE News Director Baylor Long, in a statement. “His commitment to Pittsburgh, his passion for storytelling, and his connection with our viewers have left a lasting mark on this community.”

“Sheldon brought depth, credibility, and compassion to every story he covered,” said Charles W. Wolfertz III, WTAE President and General Manager, in a statement. “He has been a steady, powerful presence in our newsroom and a journalist our audience could always count on.”

Ingram's impact on the Pittsburgh community, but particularly the African American community, is cemented. Over the years, he's emceed hundreds of events, including numerous times as celebrity host for the Courier's signature events like the "Women of Excellence" in 2022 and 2024.

In the 2022 "Women of Excellence" event, Ingram showed off his dancing chops with that event's Legacy Honoree, Esther L. Bush, the retired President/CEO of the Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh.

"It's been a pleasure to meet so many fascinating people in Pittsburgh," Ingram said.

"So many movers and shakers in the Black community; I appreciate the people who allowed me into their lives to tell their stories, both bitter and sweet. Through my encounters with all of these people, I just became a wiser man, through their experiences, through their knowledge, through their work in the community.

That's how I grew as a man, and that's how I grew as a storyteller.

It's just been a beautiful ride."

UPMC's Senior Health and Wellness Fair 2026 The New Pittsburgh Courier was there as UPMC held its first Senior Health and Wellness Fair at the UPMC Health Plan Neighborhood Center in East Liberty.

The two-hour event was held, May 20.

About 80 seniors came out to get services like a dental exam from Golden Onsite Dental, blood pressure, bone density and BMI screenings, participate in different exercises, and exploring health insurance options.

But that wasn't all. Former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Charlie Batch interacted with the seniors as well. Batch is entrenched in the Pittsburgh community through his "Best of the Batch Foundation," which impacts thousands of young people each year.

Some seniors also received food boxes if needed.

Sharon Svoboda, program coordinator for the UPMC Neighborhood Center in East Liberty, told the Courier there were more than 30 ven-

dors at the event, such as information-based organizations like the "Fraud Squad," the Alzheimer's Association Pittsburgh and Literacy Pittsburgh.

Some seniors even received hip and knee x-rays on site, Svoboda said.

The Courier caught up with Darlene Buckner and Cynthia Oakes, who received some community information from Anwan Wesley, who works with the UPMC Neighborhood Center through Strategic Consulting Partners.

Buckner, who is part of the Lincoln-Lemington-Belmar Consensus Group board, was connecting with Wesley on how the organization can attract more youth to its programming.

The UPMC Neighborhood Center in East Liberty is open Mondays through Saturdays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sundays and evenings by appointment. It's located at 6401 Penn Ave., in the Village at Eastside.

FORMER PITTSBURGH STEELER CHARLIE BATCH ATTENDED THE EVENT...

SPOTLIGHT ON SENIORS Have seniors been left behind when it comes to being online?

Do you have an understanding of the following terms: gigabyte, hard drive, download, cursor, thumb drive, software, Microsoft, disk drive, Excel, PowerPoint, memory? Do you know what it is to cut and paste? Can you transfer a file? Do you have an email address?

These are all terms that I would put on a test if I were trying to determine your technological acumen or how much you know about the living land of computers and the mystical world of the Internet. One would think that at this time in 2026, we would all be up to speed on the use of computers, and be savvy on sending and receiving emails.

Truth is, many of us seniors are not. There are many reasons for this, some are institutional and others are individual.

There is the flat out intimidation, and the belief that learning about technology is far too complicated and true knowledge is unattainable. There are those of us who fear that they can do something that will break the computer, but short of pouring water in it or throwing it out

of a window, breaking a computer is not very easy.

Whatever the reason, it is essential that we drop our fears, lose the intimidation and embrace this tool that can ultimately serve us in a positive way.

Back in 2008, Donna Baxter-Porcher, the CEO of Soul Pitt Media, and her business partner, Kirsten Womack, ran a web-based business called "2 Tech Divas." Their business specialized in helping small- and women-owned businesses harness the power of the Internet.

Donna, a former rapper, coined the phrase, “Get online or get left behind.”

Here we are in 2026 and those words hold just as much relevance today as they did back then. "The message I was sending at that time still remains today—it may be even more important because of the speed with which technology is expanding,” she said.

Jumping on the digital highway is becoming more essential in every way of life. And AI is an entirely different level of technical advancement.

Technology is a phenomenon that society cannot get away from, but is con-

tinuing to show up in places that we need to access.

Along with devices like smartphones, tablets and laptops, there are watches on which you can answer your phone and keep up with your heartbeat, steps, and blood pressure.

Additionally, there is an app for everything from weight loss to cooking to looking for love. Unfortunately though, unfamiliarity creates more angst.

When you think of access, applying for jobs, getting health care information, making hotel and/ or plane and car rental reservations at this juncture, these all require computer literacy.

For Gen Z’ers and Millennials, the matters of technology are second nature. Why? Because the past two generations (including my 8-year-old grandson’s generation) have never lived without technology and literally grew up with digital tools.

On the other hand, us Baby Boomers and Generation X'ers did not. We were late to the technology party, thus creating a steep learning curve.

The following are some areas that build the barriers and keep seniors from

embracing technology as much as youngers.

1. Frequent updates and new platforms can feel overwhelming and frustrating; remember life before Facebook, it was Myspace. Remember when iPhone 7 and 8 were the top dog; we are now at the iPhone 17.

2. Anxiety or fear of “doing something wrong,” being scammed or therefore choosing avoidance of technology altogether.

3. The feeling of being ostracized from family communication (group chats, social media) often leaves us feeling left out of cultural conversations and trends, thereby being dependent on others for basic digital interactions.

How then do we begin to address what feels like a bottomless pit of ever-increasing challenges for seniors in this expanding age of technology? It seems a good start would be for families with seniors who struggle with technical skills can help their elders who are seriously interested in getting better...without judgement or impatience, begin to slowly indoctrinate them to using the Internet.

Recognize that learning tech is actually like learning a new language and requires practice and sometimes repeating oneself to get the message

RENEE P. ALDRICH

over. Also, validate seniors’ feelings instead of minimizing them. Show them the relevancy of technology and connect its use to what matters to them, such as video calls with grandchildren and exchanging photos as grands are growing.

Also, seniors can watch church services online, keeping in mind that even

churches are no longer simply “passing the plate,” they offer four ways to pay (Zelle, Paypal, Cashapp and Givelify). I am not sure what my dearly departed mother would do with any of these.

The IT industry can do its part as well by incorporating simpler user interfaces; making it standard to use larger text options and accessibility features; and provide clearer instructions and customer support. Technology should adapt to people— not the other way around.

We are all in this together, and regardless of the generation, we all need each other. Technology should connect generations—not divide them.

When we intentionally work together, seniors regain confidence and independence, and younger generations gain patience, empathy and wisdom.

Bridging the digital divide is not just about devices—it’s about dignity, inclusion and community.

My NBA Finals prediction— Knicks vs. Wemby and the Spurs! :10—Seriously...Seriously??? Somehow you want me to honestly accept that just because you’re a Knicks fan...(and yes, I am talking to you, “Sweet Pea”), that you actually want to put Jalen Brunson on the Mount Rushmore of the greatest New York Knicks of all time.

Are you outside your mind? Yeah, Brunson’s a great player and he’s certainly lighting it up and is the heart and soul of the Knicks. But here’s the four heads that go on that

mountain, and make no mistake about it. #1 Willis Reed; #2 Walt Frazier; #3 Dave DeBusschere; #4.

Patrick Ewing. Now, if you start to carve out another landscape, here are the next four who get placed... #5 Bernard King; #6 Earl Monroe; #7 Bill Bradley; #8 John Starks. Then, if you got some mountaintop left, you can put Jalen Brunson and Carmelo Anthony in. (C’mon man, who are you going to take out of that first four and put Jalen Brunson in???

Nobody, that’s who.) :09—That being said, it’s not shocking that the Knicks swept the Cavs.

I’m gonna tell you this here and now. I will be surprised, not shocked, if the San Antonio Spurs don’t win the West. So, there you have it. The Knicks and the Spurs in the NBA showdown. I’ve got the Spurs to win it all, and here’s why. Come Wednesday, June 3, when the finals tip off, 7’4” superstar and Defensive Player of the Year (he should have been crowned MVP!) Victor Wembanyama will be even better than he is now! Wow!!! :08—It’s not that “Wemby” made that shot from halfcourt at the halftime buzzer in game 4. It’s that he did it with ease and he expected it to go in. Wow... and Double Wow! :07—Remember, I told ya last year...go ahead, pull out your old Courier and look it up. Aaron Rodgers would be back and be the Steelers starting quarterback. Also, as stated, Will Howard will be your backup. They will find a bone to break on Drew Allar’s throwing hand and put him on I.R. and out of loyalty and respect keep Mason Rudolph one more year for as needed backup issues. Take that to the bank, boys and girls, and take all those pennies you’ve been saving and cash them in...or haven’t you heard pennies are done? :06—It’s not cold anywhere in the United States, not a snowflake to be found this side of the tundra, and “they’re” still

playing hockey. Can anyone tell me why? :05—If you’re shocked or the least bit surprised that your Pittsburgh Pirates are not better than they are, you’re just not paying close attention.

OK, they’re starting to spend money. They locked down Paul Skenes, Konnor Griffin, Mitch Keller, and Oneil Cruz. But they are still 2-3 bats away from the power they need.

Lord knows, the bullpen needs a major overhaul, and it pains me to say it, but once again we have a manager making bad decisions and pulling pitchers too soon...or is that ownership pulling pitchers??? :04—Donald Trump Jr. is sponsoring the “Enhanced Games” where athletes can load up on any drugs or supplements they want. Regulated or not. Of course you’re not surprised...cheating is what the Trumps do by nature! If you want more information, just Google it. :03—Just thinking out loud. How much would you pay to see an Ali-Frazier, Sugar Ray-Duran, or a Hearns-Hagler fight tonight at 10 with chicken wings and your best boys at the crib! C’mon man, those were the days. :02—Do yourself a favor and stop hating. The WNBA is legit and exciting. And the ladies...sometimes not so ladylike... they be balling! Sit down, tune in, and pretend like

THE SPURS’ VICTOR WEMBANYAMA your daughter is playing. :01—Spots are still open for this week’s Connie Hawkins “Legends” Youth Basketball Camp at Penn

DISHONORING THE HONORABLE

Is it right to say, ‘Happy’ Memorial Day? There was a movie called “A Soldier’s Story” that was released in 1984. The storyline begins in 1944 during World War II. Vernon Waters, a master sergeant in a company of Black soldiers, is shot to death with a .45 caliber pistol outside Fort Neal, a segregated Army base in Louisiana. Captain Richard Davenport, a

Black officer from the Judge Advocate General’s Corps, is sent to investigate. Most assume Waters was killed by the local Ku Klux Klan, but others are doubtful. Through it all, even though the Sargent was murdered, a few soldiers had enlisted after repeating stints in the Negro Baseball Leagues. A White officer seemed to be primarily focused on Black players performing on the Army base’s baseball team, preparing to play and beat the New York Yankees in an exhibition game, rather than investigating and solving the murder of the Black NCO. For you movie buffs, this description is just an outline, nothing more.

In addition to that scenario, the Black soldiers were trying hard to prove that they were loyal and smart enough to be sent to fight against Hitler. Also, the Sargent was a jealous-hearted and judgmental individual, who was embarrassed by a

soldier who he considered a poor and invalid example of the social progress of Black people since they were emancipated. However, society in general felt far more secure with a Black man with a baseball bat in his hand than a rifle.

Unlike one of the men who have occupied the Oval Office, I have never in the past, present nor will I ever in the future define or refer to all of the men and women who have selflessly and willingly served and sacrificed blood, guts and tears in the service of the United States of America as, “suckers.”

It may not be part of the main theme, but I would be totally remiss if I did not give a mention of high honor to one of the legendary soldier/ NFL athlete hybrids, the former Pittsburgh Steelers fullback, and U.S. Army Specialist 4, Robert Patrick “Rocky” Bleier. He suffered a gunshot wound to the left thigh and severe shrapnel damage to his lower right leg and foot from a grenade blast in 1969 while serving in Vietnam. I mentioned him because he was aware as being ready, willing and able to fulfill and perform the role that he was hired to play. Even though Army Sargent boxer Joe Louis had a mostly ceremonial role, he still wore his uniform with pride and dignity. Let us surely not forget, Second Lt. Jackie Robinson was the solitary soldier who helped change the social and racial landscape of the United States military forever.

In the late 1990s, I conducted an interview with the late, great

MLB Hall-of-Famer, Frank Robinson. We chopped it up about the broader impact of Jackie Robinson on both Major League Baseball and society in general. Robinson said: “Jackie not only had a lasting effect on Major League Baseball, but he also had an even bigger impact on society in general, especially the corporate world. His performance as an athlete caused a few power brokers in the corporate world to pause and ask themselves the question: if Blacks could perform at such a high level on the field, maybe that excellence could be duplicated in the boardroom?”

Throughout the history of American warfare, many Black “volunteer” soldiers were oftentimes prohibited from brandishing firearms because of the guilt and paranoid views held by White officers and soldiers who were fearful of being fired upon from behind, based on the past atrocities that they perpetrated on the Black population without cause or pause. Starting with the American Revolutionary War through middle eastern conflicts, from the Buffalo Soldiers to the Tuskegee Airmen, Black soldiers who hail from sports and athletic backgrounds have often served with distinction and honor.

From cotton fields to the battlefields and from the baseball diamonds and on gridirons, the only field or venue that didn’t threaten the security of the powersthat-be was the cotton field. Although it may not be as somber as our commemoration for

Memorial Day, America should set aside a date to honor those who were denied the right to fight for and earn honor on the battlefield and excel on the playing field without recording a manipulated and flawed history.

But some folks couldn’t bear the notion that soldiers and possibly athletes from diverse genres of sports for whatever reasons, have a leg up on them, with or without an explanation.

Usually, society only reflects actions that are already occurring.

If Black baseball and football athletes were elevated to prominent roles as athletes, there would be less “culture shock” when Black professionals were elevat-

ed to more leadership positions in the corporate world. Crossing the color lines in sports may have been a great precursor to crossing the color line in the corporate arena. As far as I can determine, Frank Robinson smashed the “golden spike” on the head.

I have deep respect for those who were forced to demolish the walls of oppression and exclusion. Even after Black athletes were freed from literal bondage, many were again imprisoned and shackled by many invisible and covert social, economic, and psychological barriers.

The injustices that will stain future Memorial Days have not yet come to light, because those wrongs are currently in

their embryonic stages and haven’t manifested.

When will society honor good people just for performing good deeds, with no exceptions?

I have heard many people start with the salutation, “Happy Memorial Day.” I do not. I prefer to say, “Have a peaceful Memorial Day” because there is nothing happy about it. The only way that we may honestly honor Memorial Day is with peace.

Property is Power!

The new American Dream comes with a wealth requirement For years, Americans were told that if they worked hard, earned a degree, secured stable employment, and managed their finances responsibly, homeownership would eventually follow.

Property, after all, was presented not simply as a financial milestone, but as the central mechanism through which middle-class stability and generational wealth were built. Yet for a growing number of first-time buyers, particularly first-generation professionals, that promise feels increasingly detached from reality. The modern housing market is often described as “challenging,” but that word understates the deeper structural shift underway.

Home prices remain historically elevated despite modest stabilization in some regions. Mortgage rates continue hovering near 6 to 7 percent,

ANTHONY O. KELLUM dramatically increasing monthly payments even when prices soften slightly. At the same time, first-time homebuyers now make up only a small share of overall purchases, reaching some of the lowest levels recorded in decades. The issue is not simply affordability in the traditional sense. The issue is that access to ownership increasingly depends on whether one already possesses money before entering the market.

That distinction matters more than most economic conversations acknowledge. A generation ago, a strong income and disciplined savings habits could often compensate for the absence of inherited wealth. Today, that equation has changed.

In many metropolitan areas, buyers are competing not just against other working professionals, but against investors, equity-rich homeowners, and cash buyers capable of moving through the market with speed and leverage. Increasingly, liquidity determines who gets access to ownership.

This creates a profound dilemma for first-generation buyers. Many are highly educated. Many have respectable incomes. Many have done precisely what society instructed them to do. Yet they remain trapped in a financial paradox earning too much to qualify for meaningful assistance but lacking the accumulated family wealth necessary to compete comfortably in the market.

The result is a quiet restructuring of who homeownership is really for.

The prevailing national conversation often treats this affordability crisis as a temporary cyclical imbalance tied to inflation, interest rates, or housing supply. But beneath those surface-level SEE PROPERTY IS POWER B2

The investing world is rapidly changing to fit the growing needs of new investors. The great news is that in 2026, more and more Black investors are taking an active role in managing their finances and investing in real estate, stocks, and other beneficial markets.

Some reasons why Black investors are making smart financial moves in recent years are greater access to financial education, investing apps,

Long-Term Strategies Rather than Short-Term Speculation Broad-market index funds, retirement accounts, and dividend-paying stocks are gaining attention because they offer opportunities for steady growth over time.

Are you ready to get some financial investment advice and start making some generous money moves towards your financial freedom?

Stock Market Investing Historically, many barriers contributed to lower market participation among some communities, such as: Lack of access Limited financial education Distrust of traditional financial institutions However, mobile investing platforms, educational content creators, and social media discussions have helped make investing feel more accessible to first-time investors. That’s the brilliant thing about the tech age.

Remember that the compound effect was dubbed the eighth wonder of the world, according to Albert Einstein (the quote has been attributed to many different people). If you keep on taking money out of your investments, then you are not allowing the compound effect to do its job.

Think long-term!

Retirement Planning at an Earlier Age Rather than waiting until later in life, many younger professionals are exploring different choices designed to support long-term financial goals, such as: Employer-sponsored retirement plans Individual retirement accounts Automated investing options Starting earlier allows investments more time to potentially grow, mak-

come streams: Purchasing starter homes Multi-family properties Income-generating rental units Others are becoming interested in real estate investment trusts (REITs), which offer exposure to real estate markets without directly purchasing property.

Always keep in mind that your primary residence is not an investment property and should never be considered in your net worth calculations. It is always going to be just a home for you and your family to live in, nothing more.

If you need additional funds to buy real estate, consider 100 percent hard money financing.

America is saving on a prayer—and too many folks are one flat tire away from financial disaster!

America has a savings problem. A BIG one.

According to a recent survey, 40 percent of Americans have less than $500 saved, while 14 percent have absolutely nothing put away. Zero. No emergency fund. No financial cushion. No backup plan. That means millions of people are one car repair, one emergency room visit, one layoff, or one life emergency away from complete financial chaos.

And let’s keep it real—that’s not just a money issue. That’s a stress issue.

That’s a mental health issue. That’s a relationship issue. Financial pressure has a way of creeping into every corner of a person’s life.

What makes this even more troubling is who’s getting hit the hardest: women and lower-income households. The very people already trying to stretch every dollar are being told to somehow “save more” while rent, groceries, utilities, childcare, healthcare, and insurance continue body-slamming their budgets month after month.

Meanwhile, experts say the average American savings rate hovers around 4 percent.

Let me say this plainly: a 4 percent savings rate is not a financial plan.

That’s hope and a prayer dressed up as

responsibility.

And honestly, the word “average” hides what’s really happening in America financially. The so-called “average American” barely exists. You’ve got one group quietly stacking wealth, maxing out retirement accounts, building emergency funds, and investing consistently. Then you’ve got another group trying to survive by leaning on credit cards, Buy Now Pay Later plans, payday advances, and borrowed money just to keep the lights on.

That’s not balance. That’s a financial tug-of-war.

A lot of households aren’t simply failing to save—they’re moving backwards every single month. We’ve quietly normalized negative saving.

People now carry revolving credit card balances like it’s just another utility bill. Klarna, Affirm, Afterpay, and installment plans have become everyday survival tools instead of occasional

conveniences. Folks aren’t just financing luxury purchases anymore. Some are financing groceries, school clothes, household necessities, and basic living expenses.

That changes the conversation completely.

Too many financial gurus still love pushing the old “stop buying coffee” narrative as if lattes are the reason people are financially struggling. But the reality runs much deeper than that. Housing costs exploded. Health care costs exploded. Childcare costs exploded. Food prices exploded. Insurance costs exploded. Meanwhile, wages haven’t kept pace with the real cost of living.

Many Americans don’t lack discipline.

They lack breathing room.

Now don’t misunderstand me—saving still matters. A lot. But saving today has to become intentional because the entire system is designed to make spending easy while saving feels man-

ual.

Everything today encourages spending.

One-click purchases.

Tap-to-pay.

Food delivery apps.

Auto-renew subscriptions.

Flash sales.

Buy Now Pay Later offers at every checkout screen.

Algorithms constantly tempting you to spend money you haven’t even earned yet.

Meanwhile, saving requires effort, planning, and consistency.

That’s why automation matters so much.

If your financial system depends on you “remembering” to save money every month, you don’t really have a system. You have a wish.

One of the smartest financial concepts out there is increasing your savings little by little over time instead of trying to become a super saver overnight.

That approach works because it respects human nature.

People don’t usually fail because the goal is too small. They fail because the first step feels too big.

Financial investment moves young Black investors are exploring INVESTMENT FROM B1

Many younger investors are diversifying income through: Side businesses Digital brands Consulting work Content creation, E-commerce ventures Business ownership is often viewed not only as an income opportunity but also as a pathway toward greater financial control and long-term asset building.

Financial Literacy No matter where you are in your financial journey right now, you can start becoming more financially literate from the comfort of your home.

Podcasts, YouTube channels, online courses, books, and finance-focused communities have created more opportunities for younger investors to learn about: Budgeting Debt management Investing principles Taxes Wealth preservation Online conversations around money management have become more normalized, especially among younger generations seeking practical strategies for financial growth.

Frequently Asked Questions Should You Invest First or Pay Off Debt First?

A lot of people wonder about this question, and it’s an important one to consider, but everyone is going to be in a

different situation and have a different answer to this conundrum.

If you have a lot of credit card debt that has a high interest rate, you might consider paying that off first before starting to invest. However, mortgages, student loans, and car loans, which have a low interest rate, are fine to pay down slowly,

while investing at the same time.

Many younger investors are balancing investment goals while managing student loans, housing costs, inflation, or credit obligations. Financial planning often involves finding a balance between paying down debt and investing consistently for future growth.

Are Financial Investment Apps Safe?

Absolutely! Of course, you don’t want to choose just any investment app. The best way to go about it is to pick one that’s associated with your primary bank or financial institution.

Every bank has an investment platform built into it. There are also independent FinTech companies that you can use, like Robinhood and Interactive Brokers, which have been around for a long time and are well-liked by investors.

They also have a very low barrier to entry and are easy to use.

The most important thing here is to get over your fear and anxiety and start investing now. Do not wait for some mysterious time in the future.

The more time you waste, the longer it will take you to reach your retirement goals. Remember, time and compound interest are two important parts of the financial freedom journey.

Get investment advice if you need it, but start investing as soon as possible.

Smart Money Moves Include Sound Financial Investment Strategies Your financial freedom journey will not begin unless you start investing in real estate, stocks, and more. Financial investment is becoming important to Black investors, and that’s such a great sign of the times to come.

What are you waiting for?

Property is Power! The new American Dream PROPERTY IS POWER FROM B1

explanations lies a deeper issue. America’s housing market increasingly advantages those who are already positioned inside the asset economy while making entry substantially harder for those attempting to build wealth for the first time.

This is not accidental; markets tend to reproduce existing advantages unless deliberate intervention alters their trajectory, and housing, perhaps more than any other sector, reflects the accumulated effects of historical inequality.

For Black Americans, this reality carries particular weight.

The Black middle class today is more educated and professionally accomplished than at any previous point in American history. Yet educational advancement has not translated proportionally into wealth accumulation. One reason is that wealth in America is still overwhelmingly tied to property ownership and asset appreciation, not simply income.

But many Black households enter the housing market without the advantages that quietly support many other buyers. Lower median family wealth means down payments are harder to assemble. Parents are often less able to contribute financial assistance. Student debt burdens are typically higher, even among Black college graduates.

Rising rents consume larger portions of monthly income, slowing the ability to save aggressively. Meanwhile, homes at the entry-level price point, the very segment where many first-time Black buyers compete, face intense pressure from investors and cash-heavy buyers.

In practice, this means Black buyers are often forced to work from an entirely different starting point within the same market. The challenge is not simply qualifying for a mortgage. Many Black professionals qualify. The challenge is competing in a system increasingly designed around existing capital rather than future earning potential.

This distinction exposes a larger truth about inequality in modern America.

Economic exclusion no longer always appears through overt denial. More often, it emerges through structural conditions that appear neutral while producing highly unequal outcomes. A market does not have to explicitly reject first-generation buyers to systematically disadvantage them. It merely has to reward preexisting wealth aggressively enough.

The consequences extend far beyond housing itself. Delayed homeownership delays equity accumulation. Delayed equity accumulation delays business formation, retirement security, educational investment for children, and intergenerational transfers of wealth.

Every year spent outside ownership in appreciating markets widens the longterm gap between those building equity and those that aren’t.

This is why property remains such a critical issue within the Black community. Specifically, property is not simply about status or consumption. It is about positioning ownership, determines who participates in appreciation and who merely absorbs rising costs. It determines who can borrow against assets, who can weather economic shocks, and who can transfer opportunity forward instead of restarting from zero.

And yet despite these realities, there remains an urgent need for a more sophisticated conversation within both public policy circles and Black communities themselves. Too often, discussions around housing become overly simplified into personal responsibility narratives or partisan talking points. But the truth is more complex. The modern affordability crisis is not solely the result of poor planning or individual financial behavior. It is deeply connected to decades of uneven wealth accumulation, restricted access to ownership, zoning policies, institutional investment patterns, wage stagnation relative to asset growth, and educational debt burdens that disproportionately affect first-generation professionals.

Understanding this complexity matters because solutions require more than motivation. They require strategy. Politically, there must be stronger efforts to increase affordable inventory, regulate predatory investor concentration in residential markets, and expand access to down payment assistance and first-generation homebuyer programs.

Financial institutions must continue evolving underwriting models that recognize rent history, non-traditional income streams, and broader indicators of financial responsibility. Universities and professional organizations should also treat financial literacy and asset acquisition with the same seriousness as career advancement, particularly for first-generation graduates navigating systems their families may not have historically accessed.

But culturally, there is another challenge Black America must confront honestly. Ownership can no longer re-

main a secondary conversation behind income alone. Too often, professional success is measured by salary without equal emphasis on asset positioning.

Yet in America, wealth gaps are rarely income gaps alone, they are ownership gaps, and ownership gaps compound over generations. The danger of this moment is not simply that homes are expensive, homes have always carried cost. The deeper danger is that the pathway into ownership is becoming increasingly conditional, less dependent on discipline and more dependent on whether one begins with existing financial leverage.

That is a profound shift in America’s contract because when markets primarily reward those who already own assets, mobility slows, and when mobility slows for first-generation buyers, particularly Black buyers, inequality hardens into permanence.

Which raises a question larger than housing itself. What happens to a society when the gateway to wealth creation becomes increasingly inaccessible to those attempting to enter it for the first time? The answer may define not only the future of the housing market, but the future of economic mobility in America.

Property is Power! is a movement to promote home and community ownership. Studies indicate homeownership leads to higher graduation rates, family wealth, and community involvement.

America is saving on a prayer—too many face financial disaster DAMON CARR FROM B1

Telling somebody living paycheck to paycheck to suddenly save 15 percent of their income feels impossible. But increasing your savings rate by just 1 percent every six months? That feels manageable.

That feels realistic. That feels achievable.

Think about it this way: if you received a raise tomorrow, could you redirect just 1 percent toward your future instead of immediately upgrading your lifestyle?

Most people probably could. That’s how wealth quietly gets built over time.

And here’s another important point: the goal of saving isn’t simply retirement. The goal is freedom.

Freedom to survive emergencies. Freedom to leave toxic jobs. Freedom to help family. Freedom to breathe easier. Freedom to age with dignity. Freedom to sleep at night without financial panic sitting on your chest.

Because when you’re financially fragile, every inconvenience feels like a catastrophe.

A flat tire becomes a crisis. A medical bill becomes depression. A job loss becomes desperation.

That’s what happens when there’s no financial cushion between you and life.

And life does not care about your budget.

Another reality Americans don’t talk about enough is how culturally different we are from many other countries when it comes to saving. In some parts of Asia and other regions around the world, households save aggressively because they view savings as self-funded insurance. Their savings account is their unemployment protection, health care cushion, and retirement strategy all rolled into one.

In America, too many people unconsciously assume Social Security, pensions, government programs, or simply “working forever” will somehow carry them through retirement.

That’s dangerous thinking.

Because at a 4 percent savings rate, you’re basically betting your future on everything going perfectly: Your income staying stable Your health remaining good No family emergencies happening Your car not breaking down Your ability to work never declining

That’s a risky gamble.

And here’s the part many people underestimate: small financial improvements made consistently over time can completely change your future.

Most people overestimate what they can accomplish financially in six months and underestimate what they can accomplish in five years.

That’s why I encourage people to stop approaching debt emotionally and start approaching it strategically. Too many folks say things like, “I’m gonna pay all this debt off in 90 days!” Then life happens. Motivation fades. Emergencies pop up. Discouragement kicks in.

Instead, treat debt payoff like a long-term lifestyle adjustment.

Build savings while paying off debt.

That part is critical.

Waiting until you’re completely debt-free before saving leaves you vulnerable to falling right back into debt the next time life punches you in the mouth. You have to break the debt-crisis cycle, not just temporar-

ily survive it.

The good news is this: you don’t need perfection to improve your finances.

You need a system. You need consistency. You need patience. And you need the willingness to start where you are instead of waiting for the “perfect time.” Because the perfect time rarely comes.

Saving money isn’t flashy. Nobody posts emergency funds on Instagram. Nobody brags about automated Roth IRA contributions at the family cookout.

But when life hits hard—and eventually it will— savings become the difference between inconvenience and devastation.

Right now, far too many Americans are financially living on the edge.

One flat tire away. One missed paycheck away. One emergency away. That should concern all of us.

Watch out for the traps

Commentary The shackles our founders warned us about (TriceEdneyWire.com)—My grandmother was born in 1916 on the same red Virginia ground where her grandfather was born enslaved.

She lived to one hundred and five. She carried the weight of what her family had been to my family, and what her family had been to itself, the way you carry a stone you cannot put down. When she died, the stone passed to me.

I went looking.

What I found was a paradox written in blood.

The man Thomas Jefferson called “the most learned and logical” of the founding generation was my fifth great-grandfather. In 1766 he wrote that Parliament’s fleets and armies might give it power, but not right. He wrote that shackles, however nicely polished, would never sit easy on free men. He was Jefferson’s cousin and political mentor.

He helped invent the American argument.

He owned thirty human beings.

In 1769, in Jefferson’s first session in the House of Burgesses, the young man asked his old mentor to do one brave thing: introduce a bill making it easier for masters to free the people they enslaved.

Bland did as Jefferson asked. He was denounced as an enemy to his country. In Jefferson’s words, he was “treated with the grossest indecorum.”

He kept his thirty slaves. He died still holding them.

That is the strange courage of the founding. A man who understood that government without consent is tyranny could not break the shackles in his own house. He indicted himself with his own argument. So did Jefferson. So did every Virginia patriot who signed his name to natural rights while holding the title to another human being.

They wrote the creed anyway. They knew it would destabilize

Ben Jealous

Commentary them. And the argument they could not finish was picked up by the people they would not free.

A hundred years later, the great-great-grandson of the man they would not free left the place of his enslavement as a teenager and never looked back. He cobbled shoes. He preached. He kept a lighthouse on the same point of land where the patriot’s plantation once stood. In 1879 the people of Prince George and Surry Counties elected him to the Virginia House of Delegates as part of the most successful biracial coalition in the nineteenth-century South.

They abolished the poll tax. They tore down the public whipping post. They founded what is now Virginia State University. They rebuilt the colleges the war had broken. They funded free public schools for every Virginia child, Black and White. They built, for one bright moment, the Virginia the patriot could have written into law and would not.

The Danville Massacre of 1883 ended that coalition with bullets.

The argument went unfinished again.

It is unfinished still.

Read the grievances in the Declaration of Independence one more time. Standing armies in our streets without the consent of our legislatures. The military rendered superior to the civil power.

Quartering armed troops among us. The protection of armed men, by mock trial, from punishment for murders committed against us.

Last June the President federalized California National Guardsmen and active-duty Marines and sent them into Los Angeles over the governor’s objection. A federal judge ruled it violated the Posse Comitatus Act. Patrick Henry warned of exactly this in 1788. He used almost the same words.

The Fourth Amendment was written because British officers used general warrants—blank checks to search any home, any paper, any person. In 2024 the Fifth Circuit ruled that geofence warrants, which sweep up the data of everyone near a crime scene, are “modern-day general warrants” forbidden by the Constitution. The court named the colonial writs of assistance.

Section 702 of FISA lets the government query Americans’ communications—swept up in surveillance of foreign targets—without a warrant. The 1033 Program has poured seven billion dollars of military gear into ten thousand local police departments. Breonna Taylor was killed in her bed. Amir Locke was killed in his sleep. Both by officers serving no-knock warrants. Both, in the language of 1776, victims of armed troops quartered among us, protected from punishment by a mock trial.

This is not a left issue. It is not a right issue. Ron Wyden and Rand Paul wrote the Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act together. The ACLU and Cato agree. The grievances are not partisan because the grievances are not new. They are the same grievances written in the same hand against the same kind of power.

The patriot understood the principle and could not live by it. His descendant lived it and was outvoted by force. My grandmother carried the weight of that unfinished business her whole life and never put it down.

It was unfinished in 1776. Unfinished in 1865. Unfinished in 1965.

It is unfinished now.

And it is ours to finish.

(TriceEdneyWire.com)—I don’t know if you have ever heard of Candace Owens, but those in the know will tell you she is no friend of most of the people you know if you are African American. We have enough people out there who look like us, but choose to work against our interest in any way they can.

When they were born into the same race as we are, many of us assume they have the same interests as we have—especially when it comes to issues of race, justice, equality, goodwill, etc.

The enemy often chooses somebody who looks like us to make their point. Well, in the case at hand, since this is the political season, somebody who looks like us chose somebody whose family was often a friend. His father once led the political party to which many of us belong and more often than not, worked in our best interest. Before he was out of office he often did what he thought was in our best interest. You’ll know who I’m talking about by saying he appointed one of us to run for the office to replace him in 2024.

That’s fair, but, as for me, I wondered why he didn’t just resign from office when he decided not to run again, and allow the woman who would have become President when he resigned before his term was up. Of course, you know I am talking about former President Joe Biden who could have given us the

Dr. E. Faye Williams, Esq.

Commentary First Black Female President—Kamala Harris. That would have allowed her to run as the incumbent President. That would have put another note in the annals of Black History (and women’s history) while others who don’t look like us were making every effort to erase the great positive history we’ve already made—against great odds.

So much for that disappointment, but we shouldn’t have expected too much as Dinah Washington once sang “How Can You Be Disappointed When You Are Disappointed All The Time?”

By now, you know what I was leading up to. Why was Hunter Biden sitting down with Candace Owens making a clown of himself? Did he know her history? Did Hunter think she was a friend to the Black people who took the lead in electing Hunter’s father to be President of the United States— providing him with privileges he personally screwed up?

We, Black people, stood by his father to the end—but Hunter still did an interview with Candace Owens who is known not to

be a friend of Black people. Didn’t he know that? Through his and his dad’s tough times, who stood by them? Didn’t he know that in good times and bad times, Black people stand by and support our friends? He didn’t do himself any favors by interviewing with Ms. Owens. Instead of presenting himself as one who was moving toward recovery, Hunter just gave his enemies more reasons for blocking his healing from the mistakes he made that hurt his father’s chances of becoming President for a second term. That would have been far better than what we are dealing with today!

My advice to Hunter and to others is to watch out for everything because there’re many out there doing all they can to betray us while pretending to help us. It’s time for us not to be led into mistakes by not knowing with whom we are talking and what the intentions of their conversations are! Hunter hasn’t helped our causes or his. We could have lived without the things he was led to discuss. MS. Owens saying Democrats want Black people to fail is something that was true at another time, but if she wants to help us, she needs to update her position on who is working to make us fail now!

(Dr. E. Faye Williams, President of The Dick Gregory Society.)

The ‘Out of Bounds’ boycott (TriceEdneyWire.com)—History tells us that Alexander Stephans was a very dangerous man. As vice president of the Confederate States of America, Stephans gave his famous “Cornerstone Speech” when referring to the equality of races. During his speech, Stephans stated “Our new government is founded upon exactly the opposite idea; its foundations are laid, its cornerstone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery subordination to the superior race is natural and a normal condition”.

In 1861, as the second highest ranking official in the Confederate government, he used his position and platform to make very clear his belief in racial superiority and dominance of the White race.

He actually called it the “great truth”.

His words were validation to those who shared the same shameful beliefs.

While the Confederate government lost the war, this belief still remained in the hearts and minds of Confederate sympathizers for decades and centuries. In 2026, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is also proving to be a very dangerous man. In his high-ranking position within the Trump administration, Hegseth uses his platform to set governmental policies that are aligned with and consistent with the cultural beliefs of Alexander Stephens.

In his recent commencement address at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, Hegseth harshly criticized diversity, equity and inclusion programs and blasted former military leadership for prioritizing correctness over combat readiness. He argued that previous “foolish and feckless” military leaders had “embraced the DEI craze and tried to introduce diversity and inclusion studies,” which he blamed for endangering soldiers. Addressing the graduates directly, Hegseth pushed back against the recent cultural shifts within the armed forces, including the removal of Confederate monuments from military grounds.

He told the graduating cadets, “Many of you, even in your short time in uniform, have endured what I called the slow slide of the U.S. Army. You’ve seen standards lowered, you’ve seen an obsession with race and gender, you’ve seen the watering down of discipline, codes weakened, and traditions tossed aside in the name of political correct-

David W. Marshall

Commentary ness, statues taken down, painting placed in the basement.” As people of color, we are not fooled. When we hear Hegseth’s polarizing and misleading remarks, we see and hear Alexander Stephens under the cover. When we see Hegseth defending military bases and monuments that honor Confederate generals who led the rebellion against the Union, we see and hear the rise of the modern-day Confederacy.

Hegseth is correct. As people of color, we want to toss aside the traditions and legacies that support the untrue notion that the “negro is not equal to the white man”. Yes, we are obsessed with race and gender because we want our current and future military leaders to be strong men and women of character and integrity; leaders who treat people of all cultural backgrounds with fairness while giving them the respect they rightfully deserve. This represents the mark of true leadership which should serve as the example for all graduating cadets. And yes, we challenge any reframing of DEI which supports the idea that maintaining diversity and inclusion means the weakening of standards and the lowering combat readiness. The need for a strong pushback will always exist.

There will always be men and women in powerful positions who will be resistant to any form of progressive change, equality for people of color and the rightful sharing of political power.

The deep disrespect will never go away.

Hegseth is not alone in perpetuating the foundational beliefs of the Confederacy. There needs to be a moral pushback to what is happening under the direction of Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth and Chief Justice John Roberts. Their efforts are organized and strategic. The pushback must be as well.

The “Memphis boycott” refers to the 1968 Memphis Sanitation Strike. Black sanitation workers utilized labor strikes and community boycotts to demand bet-

ter wages, safe working conditions and union recognition. What stood out with Memphis pushback is how organizers developed the “I AM A MAN” slogan to directly confront the dehumanizing social and economic conditions faced

by Black laborers. It was a powerful statement to White individuals during the Jim Crow era who systematically used the term “boy” to address adult Black men. The statement by Blacks demanded that White individuals recognize their adulthood and equality. Rev. James Lawson, a key architect of the strike, galvanized the sanitation workers by stating, “At the heart of racism is the idea that a man is not a man….You are human beings. You are men.”

The NAACP’s new “Out of Bounds” campaign is the latest campaign in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling in Louisiana v. Callais. This pushback calls for Black athletes, families, fans, alumni and consumers to withhold athletic commitments and financial support from public universities in states where Black voting power will be severely eroded. The targeted states include Tennessee, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas and Georgia. These are states where legislatures are pursing maps to reduce Black political representation and whose flagship programs rely heavily on top-tier Black athletes in football and basketball. Today, top-tier Black athletes can earn substantial income through Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) agreements, with top earners commanding million-dollar deals.

This is a game changer for top high school recruits. If this boycott effort is to have any long-term impact, we have to remind all generations concerning the “why”. Remind them of the words of Alexander Stephens, Pete Hegseth, and Rev. James Lawson. Remind them of the moral reasons behind the “I AM A MAN” slogan. Remind them that in 2026 their friends, family and neighbors are suffering from increased racial hostility on multiple fronts resulting from anti-DEI agendas being carried out.

Once the “why” is presented, let their conscience take over.

Mississippi made a commitment to its kids. It’s time we all do the same

by Marc H. Morial (TriceEdneyWire.com)—“A literacy law is an equity law, so states must make a bold stand and say they want this science-based approach. State education agencies should walk in their authority and ensure that their teachers are equipped, knowledgeable, and empowered to teach children how to read from the first day of class.

That way, all states can start to see improvements in reading, the kind which will enable their students to enjoy the lifelong benefits of a quality education.”—Kymyona Burk A few weeks back, a viral video that showed high school students struggling to read words below their grade level garnered millions of views.

The kids who mispronounced the word “silhouette” and failed to sound out “gauche” became the butt of jokes and the subject of conversations about the future of our country being “cooked.” But for our movement, it was a call to double down on our work to ensure that every child is ready for work and life, and that starts with reading.

As we assess ways to improve our

education programs, like Project Ready, which provides on-site services to supplement what students learn in the classroom, we can look no further than Mississippi for a model of excellence.

Just over a decade ago, Mississippi ranked at the bottom of national K-12 education, sitting at 48th in on-time graduation, attendance, and reading proficiency. Rather than accepting a system that left students behind, it got to work. In 2013, the state passed the Literacy-Based Promotion Act. The law brought the “science of reading” to every classroom and provided teachers with literacy coaches to help fill skill gaps, focusing on students in K-3.

12 years later, the state ranks number 1 in reading and math gains since 2013 and number 9 in the nation in 4th-grade reading scores, according to the National Assessment of Educational Progress. For Black students, the impact was even greater.

Today, Mississippi Black 4th graders rank 3rd in the nation in reading and math scores among their peers.

The law has become a model

across the nation and a reminder that investing in the future of our children is a choice, and a choice that every city and state should make.

Improved literacy has a direct correlation to life outcomes, political participation, and critical thinking; a skill that experts say will not only be in demand, but essential in the artificial intelligence economy.

To put it plainly, we cannot afford to raise another generation of young people who cannot read. We can no longer cite the pandemic and state budget deficits as excuses to fail our young people.

A more literate America is a more competitive one. When our children succeed in school and can participate in our economy and our future, they feel a sense of pride and have a vision for their lives that goes beyond the limitations too often imposed on them.

The Urban League applauds Mississippi’s comeback story. It will continue to support our affiliates, state superintendents, and leaders who are fighting to stop our children from being the butt of cruel jokes and instead celebrate them as the guardians of our future.

The Slush Fund Presidency: The Imperial Presidency meets the family business (TriceEdneyWire.com)—America once worried about an imperial presidency. Now we have an imperial presidency merged with a family business.

And somehow, too many Americans are shrugging.

Perhaps that shrug is less agreement than exhaustion. Americans are tired—tired of the scandals, the outrage cycles, the endless circus where every day produces another ethical breach, another fundraising scheme, another spectacle competing for attention. People are struggling with rent, groceries, healthcare, caregiving, and retirement. Corruption fatigue has become part of our political culture, and that exhaustion is dangerous because corruption flourishes when people become too weary to resist it.

Donald Trump did not invent corruption. He simply removed the curtains. Previous presidents at least understood that public office required the appearance of restraint. Trump has transformed the presidency into something between a branding opportunity, a grievance machine, and a family business.

Campaign fundraising, cryptocurrency ventures, donor cultivation, luxury branding, political memorabilia, legal defense funds, and influence-peddling now swirl together into one giant transactional enterprise where political power and private wealth are increasingly difficult to separate. The presidency is no longer merely an office; it is becoming a monetization platform.

Trump’s defenders often say, “Well, he was rich before politics.” That misses the point entirely.

The issue is not whether Trump entered office wealthy. The issue is whether political power is now being openly leveraged for personal financial gain while ethical guardrails collapse around us.

Julianne Malveaux

Commentary Reports estimate Trump-linked crypto ventures alone have generated staggering sums for Trump-affiliated entities while the administration influences the regulatory environment surrounding those same markets. In another era, such conflicts would have triggered bipartisan outrage. Today, many Americans barely react before the next scandal arrives.

Corruption survives when exhaustion sets in and citizens begin believing that everybody is dirty anyway, although everybody is clearly not dirty in the same way.

Poor people are investigated for survival. Working people are lectured about personal responsibility. Black families are criminalized for minor infractions. Yet wealthy elites convert influence into wealth and are celebrated as savvy businessmen.

A poor woman receiving excess food stamps is treated like a criminal mastermind. Billionaires gaming the tax code are called “smart.”

America still punishes poverty more aggressively than it punishes corruption.

That is why the debate over IRS enforcement matters so much. Efforts to strengthen tax enforcement against wealthy tax evasion provoke immediate political backlash. Politicians rage about “government overreach” when auditors examine millionaires, but remain silent while ordinary taxpayers face penalties and garnishments over comparatively tiny sums.

There are effectively two tax systems in America—one for people with lawyers and one for people without them.

Trump did not create that system. He understands it instinctively because he has benefited from it for decades. But his presidency has accelerated something even more corrosive: the collapse of ethical expectations altogether.

Conflicts of interest barely register anymore.

Foreign money moves through luxury properties and investment vehicles. Campaign funds circulate through politically connected businesses.

Political branding and family enrichment now operate side by side with governance itself, and Americans are increasingly expected to accept all this as normal.

This is neither normal nor harmless; it is dangerous.

A democracy cannot function when citizens conclude that public office is simply another avenue for private enrichment. Once people stop believing government serves any public purpose, cynicism replaces citizenship. Voters disengage.

Institutions weaken. Democracy itself becomes transactional, and transactions always favor the wealthy.

What worries me most is not merely Trump himself, but the national adjustment surrounding him. Americans are not embracing the circus so much as surrendering to it. The daily chaos creates a numbing effect. Every scandal competes with five others. Every outrage is replaced before citizens can fully absorb its implications.

Exhaustion itself becomes a political strategy, because if the public remains overwhelmed long enough, accountability begins to erode. People stop asking, “Is this acceptable?” and begin asking only, “What happened today?”

That shift in public consciousness is profoundly dangerous.

History teaches us that republics rarely collapse in one dramatic moment. More often, they are hollowed out gradually—one indulgence, one rationalization, one ethical compromise at a time.

The presidency is not supposed to be a family inheritance project, a licensing operation, or a speculative investment vehicle. Public office is supposed to involve public trust.

Yet public trust is eroding rapidly.

The grift matters. But the greater danger is the national numbness surrounding it.

History will not judge us solely by the corruption we tolerated. It will judge us by how quickly we became accustomed to it.

NEW PITTSBURGH COURIER

Jim Crow 2.0 or Fearmongering 2.0 If the term “fearmongering” means “deliberately arousing public fear about a particular issue,” then “fearmongering 2.0” is “deliberately arousing public fear as a desperation tactic.”

The distinction between the two is that fearmongering exaggerates a valid issue, whereas fearmongering 2.0 instills fear about an unfounded one.

In Shelby County v. Holder (2013), the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Section 4(b) of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which required states and localities with a history of racial discrimination to obtain federal approval or “preclearance” before changing voting laws or procedures.

It’s vital to remember that the Voting Rights Act of 1965 included both permanent and temporary provisions. Certain provisions were scheduled to expire due to expected racial improvement. The assumption was that decades of racial progress would eventually render those provisions obsolete, but if intentional racial discrimination in voting was found to persist, Congress could extend the provisions that were set to expire. Civil rights advocates chose to deny racial progress in order to demonstrate that racial discrimination would persist indefinitely to extend the temporary provisions.

The Court decided that Section 4(b) of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was unconstitutional because the formula was based on outdated data and no longer reflected current conditions, thereby violating the principles of federalism and state autonomy. In other words, states cannot be permanently punished for past discrimination once racial progress has been made.

Civil rights groups argued that the Shelby decision represented a “step back toward Jim Crow,” referring to a period when Black people were prohibited from voting because of poll taxes, literacy tests, and various other restrictions. The Voting Rights Act of

J. Pharoah Doss

Check It Out 1965 eliminated Jim Crow restrictions that prevented Blacks from voting.

Following the Shelby decision, the NAACP stated that federal “preclearance” was a critical tool in preventing the resurgence of Jim Crow-era restrictions, and the Supreme Court has recently allowed states to reinstate discriminatory practices under the guise of race-neutral laws that will be systematically designed to make it more difficult for Blacks to vote.

Civil rights advocates told Black voters that the Supreme Court’s decision permitted the suppression of the Black vote through photo ID laws and reduced early voting.

Photo ID laws and reduced early voting may have inconvenienced Black voters but suggesting that they were equivalent to poll taxes and literacy tests, which prevented Blacks from voting, was fearmongering 2.0.

Although Black voter turnout did not dramatically drop due to voter suppression as predicted, civil rights groups still maintained that states were reverting to Jim Crow 2.0 to disenfranchise Black Americans.

The U.S. Supreme Court recently struck down a congressional map in Louisiana v. Callais.

The Supreme Court found the map an illegal racial gerrymander based too heavily on race. According to ABC, the Supreme Court reversed a lower court’s decision that said Louisiana’s map, drawn after the 2020 census, violated the Voting Rights Act of 1965 because only one of six districts was majority Black while more than a third of the state’s voting-age population

was Black. The lower court ordered Louisiana to add a second majority-Black district, a process that overtly relied on race.

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito said, “In considering whether the Constitution permits the intentional use of race to comply with the Voting Rights Act, we start with the general rule that the Constitution almost never permits the Federal Government or a State to discriminate on the basis of race.” As a result, the Supreme Court affirmed the Fifteenth Amendment and the original intent of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Even if some majority-Black districts disappear, it does not follow that Black candidates will be unable to win elections in non-majority-Black districts or that Black voters will lack representation or face Jim Crow 2.0. However, fearmongering 2.0 began immediately following the Supreme Court’s decision.

The NAACP’s president and CEO, Derrick Johnson, declared that the Supreme Court “betrayed Black voters; they betrayed America and our democracy.” He referred to the verdict as a grave setback for our country because it threatens to undermine hard-won victories for which Black people died.

Then he made a contradictory statement: “Our best defense and offense is the ballot box, and we’re going to turn out voters in the midterm elections to make sure we can elect representatives who look out for us. “ But how can that be if the Supreme Court just dealt, as he put it, “a devastating blow to what remains of the Voting Rights Act”?

Cliff Albright, co-founder of the group Black Voters Matter, stated that the Supreme Court’s decision “is literately throwing us back to the Jim Crow era unapologetically, and that’s not exaggeration.”

He’s right; it’s not exaggeration. It’s fearmongering 2.0.

Is Donald John Trump a racist?

Throughout his time on the public stage, including the time that he campaigned for the presidency and served or is serving as the President of the United States, Donald Trump has made divisive, controversial statements about Black people, about majority-Black cities and about Black African countries. His companies’ actions have also been open to scrutiny. This commentary is to state the facts as reported in media outlets. I leave it to you to decide if Trump is a racist.

Donald Trump and his father, Fred, were sued by the U.S. Department of Justice in 1973 for systematically discriminating against Black Americans in housing rentals. Media stories state that former employees testified that they were instructed to code applications of Black applicants with a “C” for colored and steer them toward specific buildings that were mainly minority. The Trumps filed a $100 million countersuit. (Sounds familiar.) News records indicate that the case was settled by a consent decree with no admission of wrongdoing, but required the company to institute safeguards to ensure the apartments were rented without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Other news media in the 1980s reported that when Donald and his then-wife, Ivana, visited Trump’s casino, the bosses would order all Black people off the floor and put them all in the back.

In 1989, prior to his entrance into politics, he took out ads calling for the execution of the suspects in the Central Park jogger rape case. The five Black and Latino teenagers were wrongly convicted and served between 6 and 13 years in prison before a serial rapist admitted to the crime and his confession was supported by DNA evidence.

Donald Trump first publicly questioned Barack Obama’s birthplace and citizenship in interviews in March 2011 during interviews on ABC News and on The View. Even after the allegation was proven false, Trump continued to promote the false accusation until Septem-

Cynthia Ackron Baldwin

Commentary ber 2016 when he finally admitted that Obama was born in the United States. But Trump wasn’t finished questioning the heritage of Black people and questioned the racial identity of Kamala Harris, falsely suggesting that she has misled people about her Black ancestry.

Trump has called prominent Blacks like Colin Kaepernick and other NFL players who kneeled during the national anthem “sons of a b_tches,” and television host Don Lemon the “dumbest man on television.” He has called Congresswoman Ilhan Omar “a hate-filled, American-bashing socialist,” “garbage,” and “despicable.” He described the country of her birth, Somalia, as a “filthy, dirty” country. Invited to speak at the Black Conservative Federation in 2024, Trump said that his indictments made him more popular with Black voters, “The mug shot… You know who embraced it more than anybody else? The Black population.” At the beginning of 2026, Trump shared a social media post on Truth Social depicting President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama as apes. This was even too much for Tim Scott and others in the GOP. While the video was taken down and blamed on a staffer, Trump refused to apologize.

In a 2016 television debate, Trump said, “Our inner cities, African Americans, Hispanics are living in hell because it’s so dangerous. You walk down the street, you get shot.”

In describing the late Elijah Cummings district in Maryland, he said it was “a disgusting rat and rodent infested mess.” In 2018, during a meeting at the White House, Trump referred to Haiti, El Salvador, and African nations as “sh__hole” countries and asked why the United

States couldn’t have more immigrants from Norway. During his 2024 campaign, Trump repeatedly made false and baseless claims about Haitian immigrants eating pet dogs and cats in Springfield, Illinois.

On January 20, 2025, Trump signed Executive Order 14151 dismantling all federal DEI initiatives.

In November 2025, Trump promoted the false conspiracy theory that “White genocide” was occurring in South Africa to expand the refugee program for White South Africans while his Department of Homeland Security was attempting to terminate Temporary Protected Status for approximately 350,000 Haitians arguing that conditions in Haiti had improved enough for them to return.

Trump then boycotted the G20 summit in Johannesburg. In May 2026, Trump announced plans to admit another 10,000 White South Africans again alleging that they face systemic discrimination and violence in South Africa, claims that the South African government states are baseless. Why is the Trump Administration determined to get more White immigration and limit immigration from majority Black, brown or Asian countries? Demographic reports indicate that the United States will become “majority-minority” between 2044 and 2045.

Could that also be the rationale for asking Americans to have more babies? Critics and political observers have argued that this message is targeted toward White, conservative, fundamentalist families.

At a campaign rally in Michigan during the 2016 campaign, Trump asked Blacks this question: “You’re living in poverty, your schools are no good, you have no jobs. What the hell do you have to lose?” For those Blacks who voted for Trump and for those who still support him, what is your answer now?

When hate crimes hit home While we all grieve the loss of life and the attack on our local Islamic house of worship, we must not allow our condolences to become a bandaid on the manifestation of hate expressed in this violent attack.

Freedom of Religion, as guaranteed by the First Amendment to the Constitution, means everyone has that right and not just a chosen few. The fact that two young men would have such a “learned” hatred is indicative of the growing problem in America, where a few people assume that their rights override the lives and rights of others who do not either agree with them or worship as they do.

Once again, we have the deadly misuse of the right to keep and bear

John E. Warren

Commentary arms. Once again, we must remind the people of this state that while the attack was on members of our Muslim community, Blacks still have the highest incidents of hate crimes in the State of California.

The tragic attacks and loss of life at the Islamic Center of San Diego is a reminder that hate is a “Clear and Present Danger” right here

at home, that the “Stop The Hate” Project that this newspaper conducted during the past two years is needed now more than ever, and that those who publicly mourn and express their outrage at times like this, must step up their support for all our anti hate efforts so that we fight this problem before we experience more such attacks and threats to all our safety, just because of how we worship.

Where do you stand? Let’s have your voice and response to such efforts.

(Dr. John E. Warren, Publisher San Diego Voice & Viewpoint Newspaper, Chairman of the Board of Directors, NNPA)
