Calls to help teens, curb violence after 17-year-old killed Downtown Second shooting death of teen Downtown this year

by Rob Taylor Jr. Courier Staff Writer

In between the Saturday, June 13, fun and excitement of the Three Rivers Arts Festival, and the fun and excitement of its closing day, Sunday, June 14, tragedy struck.

A 17-year-old, Alijah Thomas-Hayden, was shot and killed, police allege, by a 15-year-old, Riley Doubt. The shooting happened following a brief altercation at Katz Plaza, which is one block away from Arts Landing, the new park that housed the Three Rivers Arts Festival this year. The shooting happened at 12:15 a.m.

Sunday, June 14, just a few hours after the Arts Festival wrapped up on Saturday, and about eight or nine hours before the festivities were to resume.

About a month ago, on May 12, 19-year-old Terryll Little was shot and killed in Market Square, Downtown, police allege, by a 16-year-old. Thus, the shooting death of another teenager in Downtown, Thomas-Hayden, in the face of numerous forums and meetings and policies and discussions, has been front-page news since it happened.

Sheldon Williams is the City of Pittsburgh's Public

Safety Director. On June 5, Williams spoke exclusively with the New Pittsburgh Courier to discuss the issue of teen violence happening Downtown, a place where people of all ages and ethnicities gather daily.

"I want to let people know that the youth are a part of our community," Williams said. "We want to make sure that we have spaces and places they can go and be with their friends and do the things they like to do. With that said, there has to be some commitment from our community and the city to make sure that we have these spaces for our youth."

Williams continued: "I want to know what it is that the youth actually want, so we have to provide some of those opportunities to hear from them. That's what my administration is doing as well—it's not about just problem-solving to try to push youth out, it's how do we make it inclusive so youth can be part of our community."

Khari Mosley, Pittsburgh City Councilman, has told local media outlets in Pittsburgh that actions

“We want our youth to get involved, and be able to take advantage of the programs that are available to them, because there is so much for them. The sky is the limit.”

How does a salary of at least $53,000 sound?

That's what the Pittsburgh Bureau of Fire is paying its fire recruits

these days. By the time a Pittsburgh firefighter is in their second year, they're getting paid at least $62,000. By their fourth year, they're making more than $81,000. And master firefighters are bringing in

at least $85,000 per year.

by Dollita Okine King Charles held an investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle on June 2, where he honored several high-profile figures, including actor Sir Idris Elba. The 53-year-old star, best known for his roles in Luther and US crime series The Wire, has been knighted in the New Year Honours for services to young people.

Elba was knighted in the New Year’s Honours list for 2026 by King Charles, and the moment was made official at the investiture ceremony.

Only King Charles, Princess Anne, and Prince William preside over the ceremonies, presenting knighthoods, damehoods, and other awards after lists of those being honored are announced twice a year.

The 77-year-old monarch did the honors, tapping a sword on the star’s shoulders as he knelt, with a photo of the moment making the royal family’s official Instagram grid, according to the BBC. “Congratulations to everyone who received hon-

ours at today’s Investiture ceremonies, hosted by The King at Windsor Castle,” courtiers captioned the carousel, which Elba reposted on his own Instagram Stories.

“We are thankful. The work continues,” The Wire alum wrote over another photo that showed him sporting his medal and holding hands with his wife, Sabrina Elba, at the castle grounds. The star

it. I don’t even know how to talk about it.”

Elba and the King surprised everyone recently by jumping behind the DJ booth at a garden party at Buckingham Palace in London on May 14. The event was celebrating the 50th anniversary of the King’s Trust.

“It was the 50th year of The King’s Trust, who I work with sometimes.

One of our programs,

tagged the handles for Sabrina’s Instagram and the Elba Hope Foundation, the charity the couple co-founded in 2022 to support diaspora communities and create greater opportunities.

In 2022, Sir Idris founded the Elba Hope Foundation, an organization focused on community empowerment, education, youth advocacy, and sustainable development.

It was announced last year that the Luther star and the King would work together on a Netflix documentary commemorating the charity’s 50th anniversary of its founding, which is set to debut this autumn. Speaking to People exclusively at the Hijack season 2 screening in January, Elba admitted the accolade was still sinking in.

“I haven’t really spoken about it, but I will say that it’s a real honor to be recognized for the work,” he said at the time. “Especially trying to make as much noise for young people and the things that some of them are going through.

So it feels like an honor.

My family is honored by

Elba Hope and The King’s Trust, we had this DJ that I trained. He’d done one of my courses, and he was DJing. King Charles came over, and he wanted to do a back-to-back, so he got on,” the star told People earlier this month at the Los Angeles premiere of his upcoming film, Masters of the Universe.

Elba first joked that his brush with royalty was “alright” before correcting himself to say it was “amazing” to DJ alongside the King.

Since its founding as The Prince’s Trust in 1976 by the future King Charles, the King’s Trust has assisted over a million young people by providing them with the skills they need to thrive.

Notably, at the age of 18, Elba attended the National Youth Music Theatre with a grant from the Prince’s Trust, now known as the King’s Trust. Elba, a multi-hyphenate entertainer, is also a Goodwill Ambassador for The King’s Trust and has credited the grant he received from the royal charity for helping him get started in the arts.

1775—Blacks fight in two of the major battles of America’s war of independence from England—the battles of Bunker Hill and Breeds Hill. Two of the most outstanding soldiers were Peter Salem and Salem Poor.

1871—James Weldon Johnson is born in Jacksonville, Fla. Johnson is clearly one of the most multi-talented men in Black American history. He was a poet, writer, lawyer, diplomat and civil rights activist. Johnson was one of the leading figures in the Black cultural revolution of the 1920s known as the Harlem Renaissance. He was the first African-American admitted to the Florida bar to practice law. He was the first Black executive of the NAACP. He served as one of the first Black diplomats to Latin America and he is co-author of the “Black” National Anthem—“Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing.” He died in an automobile accident in 1938.

1928—The “Godfather of Soul” James Brown was born on this day in Pulaski, Tenn. He was also referred to as “Soul Brother Number One” and “Mr. Dynamic” for his sensational dancing. Brown died in December of 2006.

1948—Actress Phylicia Rashad is born on this day in Houston, Texas. Rashad is best known for her role as Bill Cosby’s wife in the once highly popular NBC television series, “The Cosby Show.”

1980—Tennis great Venus Williams is born in Lynwood, Calif. Venus is the older sister of fellow tennis great Serena Williams.

• JUNE 18

1941—Labor and civil rights leader A. Phillip Randolph initially rejects a plea

by President Franklin D. Roosevelt to call off the first-ever Black-organized March on Washington designed to protest unfair employment practices by the military and the defense industry.

The march was planned by Randolph, Bayard Rustin and A.J. Muste—all relatively unsung heroes of the early civil rights movement. The march was not cancelled until Roosevelt signed the Fair Employment Act. Ironically, more than 20 years later, Randolph would be one of the principal figures helping Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. organize his historic 1963 March on Washington.

1968—The United States Supreme Court bans racial discrimination in the sale and rental of housing. The decision came in a case known as Jones v. Alfred H. Mayer Co. The court used as its precedent the Civil Rights Act of 1866 to state that housing discrimination by either the government or private industry was unconstitutional.

2010—A study gains widespread publicity indicating that a growing number of Black males are abandoning Black females when it comes to marriage. The report, analyzing data from 2008, found that 22 percent of Black male newlyweds married a woman who was not Black. Meanwhile, 9 percent of Black female newlyweds married a man who was not Black. The study was compiled the Pew research Center and based on data from the Census Bureau’s “American Community Survey.” The actual report had been released in early June.

• JUNE 19

1865—The Juneteenth Celebration begins. June 19, 1865 marks the day that many Blacks actually became free, especially those in Texas. Even though the Emancipation Proclamation technically freed all slaves in 1863, slavery actually continued in Texas until the end of the Civil War. It was not until June 19, 1865 that many slaves learned they had been freed. They called the day of freedom “Juneteenth.” It is normally marked with picnics, barbecues and commemorations. In 1980, the day became an official holiday in Texas.

1918—Ebony and Jet magazines founder John H. Johnson is born in Arkansas City, Ark. He moved to Chicago to build his publishing empire.

Johnson was the first African-American to appear on the Forbes magazine list of 400 richest Americans with an estimated wealth of $500 million. Johnson died in August 2005. However, both magazines are now in financial trouble.

2009—The U.S. Congress issues a formal apology to Black Americans for the slavery of their ancestors. The resolution acknowledged the “fundamental injustice, cruelty, brutality and inhumanity of slavery and Jim Crow laws” which followed slavery. However, the resolution specific rejected paying Blacks reparations for past, discrimination, mistreatment and brutality.

1871—The first anti-Ku Klux Klan trials SIR IDRIS ELBA AND HIS WIFE, SABRINA.

begin in Oxford, Miss. The trials were part of an effort begun by President Ulysses S. Grant to crush the Klan, which was populated by defeated Confederate soldiers from the Civil War and which was becoming increasingly powerful throughout the South. In Mississippi, White doctors, lawyers and even ministers were indicted for violating Black rights and conspiring against the U.S. government. More than 900 were indicted in Mississippi and 243 convicted. Similar trials took place throughout the South—most notably in South Carolina and North Carolina.

Grant’s efforts succeeded in crushing the terrorist organization and it would not rise again until 1915.

• JUNE 21

1832—Joseph Haynes Rainey, the first African American to serve in the United States House of Representatives, is born in Georgetown, S.C. He was elected in 1870 from the state of South Carolina. He served five terms in Congress and died in 1887. In 2005, a portrait of Rainey was finally hung in the U.S. Capitol Building.

1859—Henry O. Tanner, the first African American painter to achieve international acclaim, is born in Pittsburgh, Pa, to a middle class Black family. His most notable work was “The Banjo Lesson,” which he painted in 1893. Tanner would later teach at Clark University in Atlanta, Ga. Tanner was considered a formalist—meaning his paintings tended to be beautiful depictions of reality.

He died in May 1937.

1915—The United States Supreme Court declares in the Guinn v. United States case that “grandfather clauses” in many Southern state constitutions and laws were illegal. The case grew out of the practice, common in the South, of setting up stringent requirements in order to prevent Blacks (former slaves) from voting. But in order to ensure that Whites could vote, the laws exempted them from the difficult requirements by asserting that anyone (or his grandfather) who could vote prior to 1867 did not have to meet the tough standards. Since virtually no Blacks could vote prior to 1867, “grandfather clauses” had the effect of denying Blacks the right to vote.

1964—Three civil rights workers (Andrew Goodman, James Chaney and Michael Schwerner) disappear near Philadelphia, Miss., and are later found murdered. Seven Ku Klux Klan members, opposed to a Black voting rights campaign, were indicted for the killings, but none served more than six years in prison. The incident became one of the major sparks to the then young Civil Rights Movement.

Justice for the three was finally completed in June 2005 when the leader of the group of Klansmen—Edgar Ray “The Preacher” Killen—was convicted of their murders. Ironically, Killen was convicted on June 21, 2005—41 years to the day that Goodman, Chaney and Schwerner were killed.

• JUNE 22

1863—The War Department establishes the Bureau of Colored Troops and began to aggressively recruit Blacks for the Civil War. The Black troops would play a major role in turning the tide of battle against the rebellious Southern slave states.

1959—Benjamin O. Davis Jr. becomes the first African American general in the U.S. Air Force. His father, Benjamin O. Davis Sr., had been the first Black general in the U.S. Army.

• JUNE 23

1921—“Shuffle Along”—the first of a succession of widely popular Black musicals performed for White audiences—opened at the 63rd Street Theatre in New York City, becoming the first African American Broadway musical. The musical comedy combined the talents of the legendary team of Eubie Blake and Noble Sissle. “Shuffle Along” produced a long list of hits including “Shuffle Along,” “I’m Just Wild about Harry,” “Gypsy Blues” and “Love Will Find A Way.” 1981—Legendary Reggae artist Bob Marley is given an official state funeral in his homeland of Jamaica. He had died of cancer on May 11 in Miami.

Marley and his band “The Wailers” had made Reggae popular worldwide with such hits as “Stir It Up” and “No Woman, No Cry.” He was considered the first third-world superstar and a prophet of the Rastafarian religion. He was only 36 when he died. His body now lies in a mausoleum in Jamaica.

Calls to help teens, curb violence after 17-year-old killed Downtown Second shooting death of teen Downtown this year TEENS FROM A1

such as a teen curfew might have to come into play if violent actions involving teens continues in Downtown and other parts of the city. So far, though, Pittsburgh Mayor Corey O'Connor isn't speaking those words.

But the issue about teens, teens Downtown, teens in East Liberty, etc., isn't going away.

Mayor O'Connor told the Courier and other media outlets that the city's "Learn & Earn" program, where teens ages 14-23 can work a summer job in the city and Allegheny County, has been extended to a yearround program, thanks to funding from The RK Mellon Foundation. The mayor called the idea of teens working yearround a way of bringing more financial stability into some households, as well as giving them something productive to do and look forward to throughout the year.

What are other ways to keep the youth involved in positive activities?

"We're working on a program to extend hours at all of our rec centers and bring opportunity directly into neighborhoods at those rec centers," Mayor O'Connor told the Courier exclusively, June 5. "Bringing the great art and culture that we have here directly to our youth at those rec centers. Taking in local artists, having them in our rec center on a Thursday night, teaching young people about how they got into it and telling those stories."

Unfortunately, teens have been victims of gun violence over the past week and a half in the Pittsburgh area. On Saturday, June 13, police in Penn Hills responded to multiple shots fired at a pool party involving teens and young adults on Twin Oak Drive, at the Olympic Swim Club.

One person was shot.

On Monday, June 8, a

LEE DAVIS has been a community advocate in the fight to stop youth violence in Pittsburgh for decades.

17-year-old girl was shot in the leg in Clairton following an argument.

On Sunday, June 14, a teen was shot along James Street in Turtle Creek. As of press time, there was no word on the age of the teen.

Also on Sunday, June 14, a teen and an adult were involved in a dispute in Swissvale, and when another man intervened, he was shot, police allege, by the first adult male. The teen in that incident was not injured.

New Evangelistic Ministries Pastor Dorothy Stubbs spoke with the Courier exclusively on Tuesday, June 16, about the recent violence involving teens.

"We want our youth

to get involved, and be able to take advantage of the programs that are available to them, because there is so much for them," she said. "The sky is the limit. I had to go to school for my master's. They don't have to go to school. They have everything at their fingertips. Take advantage of it. They have AI (artificial intelligence), they have Google...It's still half of the year left, there's still time left to be able to finish strong...

Get involved. There are people that want to help you."

And Pastor Stubbs' message to parents of teens?

"You're either part of the problem or part of the solution. What you gonna do, mom, dad, aunt, uncle? Pick one.

Because both of them won't work. You're either part of the problem or the solution."

A Pittsburgh firefighter—pays well, good pension, and 'helps the community' Recruitment event held, June 13 FIREFIGHTER FROM A1

Pittburgh's Fire Career Showcase, Saturday, June 13, on Washington Boulevard in East Liberty. He loves the firefighting profession, ever since his father, Micah Taylor, took him on a ride to a non-serious fire call while Micah Taylor was a volunteer firefighter in Baldwin some seven years ago.

"I just remember going, 'this is what I want to do,'" Ayden Taylor told the New Pittsburgh Courier at the June 13 event.

Ayden Taylor loved hearing about his father's day as a firefighter.

"He would always tell me about what he had to do and what he learned," Ayden Taylor, now 17, said.

Firefighting, for all of its blaring sirens, big trucks and tall ladders, doesn't seem to attract as many African Americans to its profession as some would like. The

National Fire Protection Association reports about eight percent of all firefighters in the U.S. are Black.

In the Pittsburgh Bureau of Fire, even though the leader of the department, Darryl Jones, is Black, it's estimated on any given year that there are between seven and 10 percent of the department's firefighters who identify as Black.

That's not deterring Ayden Taylor or his family.

"We (as African Americans) take it (firefighting) for granted but we don't take advantage" of its salary, benefits, etc., expressed Ayden Taylor's mother, Tia Spells-Turner.

She continued: "I have a lot of respect for what our first responders do, whether it's firefighting, EMS, or police officers.

They put their lives on the line. It's very stressful, they encounter people at their worst. It's incredibly noble what

they do and they give so much of themselves, their time. More people need to be appreciative of it. We wouldn't be here without them."

City officials at the event said that those interested in becoming a Pittsburgh firefighter should visit the website

pittsburghpa.gov/safety/ fire or email:

ronda.sherrill@ pittsburghpa.gov.

The city will be taking applications again for firefighter recruits in the spring of 2027.

"Monetarily, we are compensated very well for the dangers that we face," expressed Pittsburgh Bureau of Fire Lieutenant Matthew Novotny, to the Courier. "We are also given an incredible pension, we have one of the best pensions in the state, and we have some of the best benefits in the city through our union contract."

For Novotny, he said being a firefighter is a dream job.

"We also get to go to work every day and help our community, help everyone around us," he said. "Wherever we go, people are happy to see us usually, and kids love

us. It's a great feeling going to work knowing you're living every kid's dream. What little kid didn't grow up wanting to shoot water out of a fire engine?"

In closing, Novotny said: "We're paid very well, my family's taken care of, and I know that when I retire, I'm going to have a good pension to fall back on."

Trump celebrates 80th birthday with unnecessary UFC fights on White House lawn “Let them eat cake and when they become hungry again, let them eat more cake.”

(Quote by an unidentified heir of Marie Antoinette attending the Donald Trump UFC birthday fiasco held at the White House outside ballroom on June 14, 2026.)

Hey folks, have you been paying attention? Well, if you haven’t, please allow me to bring you up to speed.

While Donald Trump was in the process of spending millions of dollars recently just to stage a UFC cage match which is the human equivalent of a cockfight as a birthday present for yourself, the remainder of the population of America has been counting pennies (which no longer are supposed to exist), as they debate whether to purchase one or two slabs of spareribs to celebrate July 4th.

Does anyone consider it ironic that Donald Trump has an investment in the UFC’s parent company, TKO Group Holdings?

According to recent financial disclosures, he purchased somewhere between $15,000 and $50,000 worth of shares

back in March 2025. Truth be told, if there were a genuine cage match, the American people would have been locked inside of that economic and socially “gilded cage” armed only with cap guns, while the opponents have been provided with AK-47s.

Does the irony continue with the fact that this investment coincided with his promotion of the UFC event that recently took

place on the White House South Lawn, Sunday night, June 14? Trump has allegedly invested in the company that stands to benefit from the extra publicity that that event generated. How can a man be sued for allegedly not paying painters and plumbers, but spends excessive amounts of money from the government without hesitation? Presidents Barack Obama and

Theodore Roosevelt are and were sportsmen, but they didn’t spend millions of dollars filling out March Madness brackets or by going on a safari or two, did they?

There is also a flurry of activity simultaneously taking place around the former east wing of the White House during the construction of a “vital” and falsely secure $1 billion “armor plated ballroom,” just in case the revolution is televised and the folks in the ‘Big House’ may watch it uninterrupted. People theorize that the additional security is justified because of the multiple assassination attempts on the president and that may be true. I also agree with protecting the president regardless of the cost. Is it justified to shut down New York City just so president could avoid a boring evening by personally attending a hoop game?

What happened on September 19, 2014? A knife-wielding intruder identified as Omar J. Gonzalez scaled the north perimeter fence and entered through the un-

locked North Portico doors around 7:20 p.m. He was carrying a 3.5-inch folding knife and was subdued by U.S. Secret Service officers inside the East Room.

Some people blamed the security lapse on the fact that at the time of the breach, President Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, and their daughters were en route to Camp David, avoiding immediate risk but prompting heightened security reviews and reforms.

How much funding was committed to the security of President Obama and his family after their security was breached not once but twice? On Tuesday, October 21, 2025, at approximately 10:37 p.m., a car crashed into a barrier that was placed to protect the perimeter of the White House. The driver was taken into custody for mental evaluation.

Donald Trump always conveniently uses athletes of color as a springboard for publicity when he decides to attend a sporting event. Any sporting event he will always and only be motivated by the publicity that he will be able

to glean from the activity.

I am shocked that he has not placed a full-page ad in the New York Times portraying the Houston Rockets center Victor Wembanyama as “classless” for refusing to shake hands with the New York Knicks players after the Knicks defeated the Rockets for the NBA championship.

If Victor Wembanyama has been called “classless” for avoiding a handshake with the opposition after a disappointing loss, how can the character of Tom Brady continue to be worshipped after he refused to shake Eli Manning’s hand when the Giants defeated the Patriots in Super Bowl XLII? Also, do many of you remember Super Bowl LII? That’s when many people expected Tom Brady to provide a masterclass for the Philadelphia Eagles QB Nick Foles, but Foles was the one that sent Tom Brady out to get one of “grandma’s switches” so that Nick Foles could administer the discipline and wake up call that the Patriots needed.

Oh, I almost forgot. Here are a few quotes from “Sir Lie-a-lot,” not Sir Lance-

lot that were featured on “Untruth Antisocial.” “Sir Lie-a-lot” said: “Congratulations to Jim Dolan and the New York Knicks!

What a year it has been but, even more so, what incredible playoff wins we have all witnessed, especially the last four— Maybe the greatest in the history of basketball. Also, tonight, a superstar was born. His name is Jalen Brunson, and there are others, including, Karl Anthony Towns, OG Anunoby, and great Patriot, Mitchell Robinson! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP. Maybe the greatest in the history of basketball?”

I guess all the Los Angeles Lakers championships and the Chicago Bulls titles, and the Wilt Chamberlain-Bill Russell clashes are a moot point?

I guess the New York Knicks’ championship win is one of the primary reasons that America will become great again? I’m sorry, history cannot be rewritten, because America and basketball are and have never stopped being great!

New York Knicks, NBA Champions!

Here's thoughts from the pros :10—Needless to say, and of course I could give you all the answers you’re looking for, but that would be too easy, and you know how you are about second guessing me, all because I said “your” Pittsburgh Steelers would beat the Houston Texans in the first round last year (lost 30-6) and would have beaten the New England Patriots in the Divisional Round...a brother makes one bad call and you never let him live it down!? (wait . . . what, one...C’mon

Neal, get real). :09—Anyway, just to keep y’all off my back and to reintroduce you to your local legends, here’s what the following PITTSBURGH PROS had to say about the NBA Finals. I should point out, they are all Connie Hawkins Summer Basketball League Hall of Fame Inductees as well. RON CARTER, MYRON BROWN, JENNIFER BRUCE, and KIRK BRUCE. Be advised, all these former Pittsburgh Great Ballers were asked the following questions. #1. Who did you pick to win the NBA Finals and why? #2. How do you feel about Jalen Brunson of the Knicks? #3. How do you feel about Victor Wembanyama of the Spurs? #4. How did you feel about the coaching? #5. Should De’Aaron Fox

have gone for the layup or ran out the clock in game 4!?!? :08—First up, “Rockin’ Ron Carter, Perry H.S. grad, VMI (Virginia Military Institute) legend and all-time greatest player, former draft selection and team member of the World Champion L.A. Lakers. “I picked San Antonio to win because of their youth, then realized their youth would be their downfall.

I will tell you this. Having played with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the greatest center in NBA history, and arguably the greatest basketball player of all time at any level...when Wemby puts on 50 pounds of muscle and continues to get his footwork training from Hakeem Olajuwon, he will be unstoppable! I give the coaching a C-, but he’ll get better. And yes, De’Aaron Fox should be shooting those foul shots right now. As for Jalen Brunson, he gives 110 percent at all times, and that’s what you want from your team leader.” :07—“Flyin’ Myron” Brown, a standout player at Sto-Rox High School out of McKees Rocks, went on to become a Hall-of-Fame player and all-time leading scorer at Slippery Rock University, drafted by the Minnesota Timberwolves, and on to a fabulous career overseas in the European League.

“To begin with, I am not a big fan of today’s NBA... glorified 3-point shooting, no one in the low post, and no inside game whatsoever. As for Brunson, I see him as a combination of James Harden and Luka Donic, a lot of ball-handling and shooting a low percentage. Most importantly, as it relates to coaching, I expect coaches to put the best players on the floor and other “professional” players in the locker room should expect and want the same thing.

That clearly didn’t happen with the Spurs. For those reasons, and some others, I didn’t have a selection.” :06—It’s really not necessary to state the obvious, but since some of you folks have a tendency to forget your basketball history, please be reminded that Jennifer Bruce was a star player at Carrick High School, on to Pitt where she became the

THE NEW YORK KNICKS ARE THE 2026 NBA CHAMPIONS. University’s all-time leading scorer for both the men’s and women’s divisions. That being said, she would have clearly been a first-round #1 draft selection in the now WNBA. Her greatness preceded the coming of the league by a few years. “I had the Spurs. I liked the Spurs and Wemby as well. At least in the beginning.

But some of Wemby’s actions, comments and attitude toward the media kind of changed my position on him. And it really bothered me when he walked off the court without shaking hands.

But he’s still young. As for coaching, I thought the Spurs did a really bad job in not taking advantage of the Knicks’ mistakes, most especially using the shot clock to their advantage...for example, not letting the possession clock run down before jacking up a 3. All that being said, I started to gravitate to the Knicks. Their attitude as a team and Brunson’s chilled demeanor. I know he’s listed at 6'2", but I think it’s more like 6'1".

But regardless, he brings it!” :05—Kirk Bruce has the honor of being the older brother of Jennifer. (Well, honor might be a bit much, but Jennifer makes me say things...) Anyway, Kirk was a high school star at the old South Hills High School. He went on to Pitt where he ascended to star status with the great

Billy Knight, when the team went 25-4 and onto the East Regional Finals of the NCAA Tournament.

Bruce was drafted by the Utah Stars of the ABA, after which he returned to his alma mater to have a great administrative and women’s basketball team coaching career. “I had the Knicks from the start.

Property is Power!

Why banking matters to Black homeownership and why America cannot afford to get this wrong There is a fundamental truth that America often overlooks when discussing wealth, economic mobility, and racial equity. For generations, policymakers, economists, and community leaders have focused on the homeownership gap between Black and White Americans; yet many fail to recognize that the homeownership gap is often the final chapter of a much larger story, the story of access to financial institutions, credit, capital, and trust. If Property Is Power, then banking is the infrastructure that makes that power possible.

The question before us is not whether Black Americans desire homeownership. The evidence overwhelmingly shows they do. The question is whether our financial institutions are willing to

ANTHONY O. KELLUM create meaningful pathways that transform aspiration into ownership.

The Historical Context We Cannot Ignore Any serious discussion about Black homeownership must begin with an honest examination of history. For much of America’s history, African Americans were systematically excluded from the mainstream banking system. Through redlining, discriminatory lending practices, unequal access to credit, and decades of public and private policies, entire communities were denied the financial tools necessary to build generational wealth.

While homeownership became the primary wealth-building mechanism for millions of American families after World War II, many Black families were locked out of the very system that created the modern middle class. The consequences remain visible today.

Lower rates of homeownership often correlate with lower household wealth, reduced access to business capital, diminished inheritance opportunities, and fewer economic resources available to future generations. When a family develops a strong relationship with a financial institution, that relationship can become the bridge between renting and owning. Unfortunately, many Black communities continue to experience what economists call “financial deserts,” areas where access to meaningful banking services remains limited.

Even when branches exist, trust often does not.

Communities that have experienced decades of exclusion are understandably skeptical when institutions suddenly arrive promising opportunity.

What Banks Must Do If banks genuinely want to narrow the homeSEE PROPERTY IS POWER B2

For more than 50 years, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) has been an effective federal safeguard to ensure that Black, Latino, Native Americans and other economically marginalized people have fair access to safe and affordable credit. Enacted with bipartisan support in Congress and signed into law by President Gerald Ford in 1974, ECOA has been a legal backbone in the fight against financial discrimination for literally millions of qualified borrowers.

Think a 529 Plan is only for college? Think again.

Whenever I bring up a 529 Plan with clients, I usually hear the same concern.

“Damon, what if my child doesn’t go to college? What if they decide to become an electrician, start a business, or simply choose a different path? I don’t want to save all that money just to get hit with taxes and penalties.”

It’s a fair question.

For years, many Americans viewed a 529 Plan as a one-trick pony—a savings account designed exclusively for a traditional four-year college education. If college wasn’t in the plans, many assumed the account would become more of a burden than a benefit.

That thinking is officially outdated.

Today’s 529 Plan has evolved into something much bigger: a flexible, tax-advantaged lifetime learning and wealth-building tool that can benefit children, parents, grandparents, and even working adults looking to sharpen their skills.

In other words, your education money just got a major promotion.

Education Doesn’t End at Age 22 The days of earning one degree and working the same job for 40 years are disappearing. Artificial intelligence, automation, and rapidly changing industries are reshaping the workforce faster than ever before.

The people who continue learning will continue earning. That makes investing in yourself one of the smartest financial decisions you can make.

Fortunately, the rules surrounding 529

Plans have expanded to reflect today’s economy.

Yes, the account still covers traditional college expenses such as tuition, books, fees, and certain room and board costs.

But that’s only the beginning.

Today, qualified tax-free withdrawals can also be used for trade schools, vocational programs, professional credential programs, licensing exams, certification testing, and continuing education courses required to maintain many professional licenses and certifications.

Want to become a real estate agent? An electrician? A nurse?

A teacher? An IT professional? A financial planner? A commercial truck driver?

A 529 Plan may help pay the education and testing costs required to get there.

That’s a game-changer.

It’s Not Just for College Students One of the biggest misconceptions about 529 Plans is that they’re only for young adults heading off to campus. Not true.

You can use a 529 Plan to pay qualified education expenses for yourself if you’re returning to school or pursuing a professional credential. You can also use the funds for an eligible family member.

Even better, if the original beneficiary doesn’t need the money, you can generally change the beneficiary to another qualifying family member without triggering taxes or penalties.

That means funds originally saved for one child could potentially be transferred to a sibling, grandchild, parent, spouse, or other eligible family member who needs educational assistance.

Life changes. Families change. Career paths change. Now your education savings can change with them.

Don’t Forget K-12 Education Many people also don’t realize that 529 Plans aren’t limited to higher education.

Federal law allows up to $10,000 per year, per student, to be withdrawn taxfree for qualified kindergarten through 12th-grade tuition expenses at eligible public, private or religious schools.

For families paying private school tuition, that can provide another valuable tax-advantaged planning opportunity.

Keep in mind that individual state rules may differ, so it’s important to understand how your state’s tax laws apply before making withdrawals.

Building Skills Instead of Student Debt Every certification earned creates opportunity. Every license obtained increases marketability. Every new skill strengthens earning power.

Yet many people hesitate to invest in themselves because of the upfront cost.

Instead, they charge tuition to a credit card, take on expensive debt, or postpone career advancement altogether.

A 529 Plan offers another option.

Rather than using after-tax dollars, you can potentially use money that has grown tax-free to invest in the very thing that has the greatest potential return—you.

That’s not spending money. That’s investing in human capital.

And in today’s economy, your ability to generate income will always be one of your greatest wealth-building assets.

The Hidden Retirement Opportunity The upgrades don’t stop with education.

One of the most exciting changes allows certain unused 529 funds to become retirement savings.

If a 529 account has been open for at least 15 years, eligible unused funds can be rolled into a Roth IRA for the beneficiary, subject to annual Roth IRA contribution limits, earned income requirements, and a lifetime rollover maximum of $35,000.

Think about what that means. Maybe your child receives scholarships.

Tariff whiplash and a rising Black recession

by Eric Morrissette At the start of this year, the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies released a report naming what many Black households and business owners were already living: signs of a Black recession. Not a metaphor, but a documented decline in living standards, marked by record Black unemployment, business contraction, and the cumulative weight of a 2025 policy agenda that has targeted the predictability, programs, and protections that Black economic participation depends on. That warning now looks prescient.

Hours after the Supreme Court ruled the President’s tariff policy unconstitutional—a ruling that, whatever its complications, injected a measure of clarity into markets that have been starved of it—the President addressed the country and promptly injected further uncertainty, announcing he would impose different tariffs to offset those struck down. For most Americans struggling with affordability, this was another whiplash moment. For Black-owned small businesses and the communities they serve, it was something more: the latest entry in a pattern of policy choices that have made planning, survival, and growth measurably harder.

Uncertainty Is the Policy Uncertainty is one of the most disruptive forces for a small business. Simply put, you can’t plan if everything keeps

changing. If you own a clothing business and the price of fabric fluctuates wildly, it becomes nearly impossible to determine how to produce and price your goods. In that environment, simply knowing what fabric costs becomes the foundation upon which every other decision rests. That basic economic stability has been denied, and this past week’s deliberate reinjection of confusion is not a detour from the pattern. It is the pattern and increasingly appears to be a governing philosophy.

The Federal Reserve has been monitoring tariff policy carefully, and its officials have been unusually candid in response.

Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic captured the moment plainly, describing how businesses are processing the whipsaw of tariff moves: “We are all doing calculus now, trying to figure out sort of how this feeds through to our individual businesses, as well as to our partners, our suppliers, and then to consumers.” Bostic noted that businesses were already beginning to pass tariff costs on to consumers, and that he expects higher prices through the first half of the year. New York Fed research grounds that concern in data: 90 percent of the economic burden from 2025 tariffs fell on U.S. firms and consumers.

When Small Businesses Contract Small businesses are the country’s leading private sector employer, and when they contract, entire communities feel

it. Black-owned small businesses face a compounding burden: the broad economic headwinds created by tariff uncertainty, and the targeted dismantling of the equity programs and administrative structures this administration has moved aggressively to eliminate.

The data is bearing this out. The Labor Department reports Black unemployment reached its highest level in four years in 2025, while tariffs have driven up both input costs for businesses and retail prices for household staples. Small businesses with fewer than 20 employees, the size category that includes most Black-owned firms, have shed 62,000 jobs since January 2025.

The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities has been direct: “The standard of living for Black households and small businesses faltered in 2025 due to a variety of targeted policies from the Trump Administration, including tariffs.”

This is what the Joint Center meant by signs of a Black recession. Conditions that, applied to the broader population, would meet the textbook definition of a recession. It is an accumulation of choices, and this past week was another one.

A Missed Opportunity for Stability The Supreme Court’s tariff ruling last week represented a genuine, if narrow, opportunity; a moment where the policy environment might have offered some relief to businesses and households that have had very little of it. Instead, with-

in hours, that opening was closed by the President’s decision to impose new tariffs.

Lawmakers and the administration still have a choice. Congress can reassert its constitutional authority over trade policy. The administration can acknowledge that the uncertainty it is generating has costs—measurable, documented costs borne disproportionately by communities that not positioned to bounce back.

The Supreme Court’s decision also left open the question of what happens to the estimated $175 billion in tariff collections now subject to potential refund.

That is not just a legal question—it is a policy opportunity. Lawmakers and the administration could use this moment to deliver the predictability and stability that markets and small businesses are demanding: by prioritizing refunds to small businesses harmed by those tariffs, by investing in rehiring some of the 62,000 jobs shed since January, and by finally giving some breathing room to the communities that can least afford another year of this.

Those communities deserve more than acknowledgment. They deserve the relief, stability, and political prioritization that this moment makes possible.

ownership gap, they must expand their view of community reinvestment beyond traditional compliance measures.

One of the most impactful steps financial institutions can take is directing more CRA resources toward initiatives that produce actual ownership outcomes. Down payment assistance programs can help families overcome one of the greatest barriers to purchasing a home. Closing-cost assistance can prevent otherwise qualified buyers from abandoning their dream at the final stage of the transaction. Homebuyer education programs can equip future homeowners with the knowledge necessary to navigate the mortgage process confidently, while credit counseling can help families address financial challenges before they become obstacles to approval. Affordable mortgage products designed with underserved communi-

ties in mind can create opportunities where conventional lending standards may leave qualified families behind.

Success should not be measured by how many programs are offered but by how many families ultimately receive the keys to their first home.

Equally important is the issue of representation. Communities are often more willing to engage with institutions when they see themselves reflected in those institutions. This does not mean representation alone solves systemic challenges, but it does help build trust.

Banks should recruit, develop, and promote professionals from the communities they serve and ensure those professionals have meaningful authority in decision-making roles. When leadership reflects the diversity of the marketplace, institutions gain valuable perspectives that can improve products, services, and community engagement strategies.

Banks must also rediscover the val-

ue of relationship-based lending. While technology and automated underwriting systems have increased efficiency, they should not eliminate the human element of banking. Credit scores tell an important story, but they do not tell the entire story. A family’s history of responsible banking, consistent savings habits, stable employment, and financial discipline often provides valuable context that may not be fully reflected in a numerical score. The most successful financial institutions will be those that find ways to combine technological innovation with relationship-driven service.

Finally, banks should invest in financial education long before an individual begins shopping for a mortgage. Homeownership preparation should start years before the loan application is submitted. By partnering with schools, churches, community organizations, and Historically Black Colleges and Universities, banks can help create a

culture of financial literacy that prepares future generations for ownership.

Education is one of the most powerful investments a financial institution can make because informed consumers are better positioned to build wealth, manage risk, and achieve long-term financial success.

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.

Think a 529 Plan is only for college?

DAMON CARR FROM B1

Maybe they attend a trade school that costs less than expected. Maybe they simply don’t use every dollar in the account.

Instead of paying taxes and penalties on non-qualified withdrawals, eligible funds can begin building tax-free retirement wealth.

Education savings can become retirement savings. That’s financial flexibility.

Financial Planning Is About Creating Options One of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming life will unfold exactly as planned. Rarely does it.

A child may choose a trade instead of a university. A working adult may need new credentials after losing a job. A professional may need continuing education to remain licensed. A family member may decide to return to school later in life. A young adult may benefit more from jump-starting retirement savings through a Roth IRA rollover.

A modern 529 Plan can support every one of those scenarios.

That’s why I no longer look at a 529 Plan as simply a college fund.

I see it as a lifelong learning account, a career development tool, and a

wealth-building strategy wrapped into one tax-advantaged package.

The Bottom Line The economy is changing. Technology is changing. Careers are changing.

The people who thrive won’t necessarily be the ones with the most degrees. They’ll be the ones willing to continuously learn, adapt, and increase their value.

A 529 Plan can help finance that journey from kindergarten through graduate school, from trade school to professional certifications, from continuing education to retirement planning.

Don’t let your money sit on the sidelines when it can help you level up.

Because your greatest investment isn’t just the money in your portfolio.

It’s the knowledge, skills, and earning power that no market downturn can ever take away.

And remember, information without application is suffocation.

Get a grip on your money, invest in yourself, and let your education dollars build wealth for generations to come.

authority to Senate-confirmed CFPB Directors, which Vought is not.

According to the advocates, during an abbreviated public comment period, an estimated 64,500 industry participants, including a coalition of 78 civil rights organizations, other consumer advocates, state attorneys general, and Members of Congress, registered their opposition to the reversal.

“The CFPB set an unusually short thirty-day public comment period over the Thanksgiving holiday, failed to employ a small business advocacy review panel, and made not a single material change to the rule in response to tens of thousands of comments, the overwhelming majority of which opposed the rule,” said Janell Byrd-Chichester, National Fair Housing Alliance General Counsel.

Recapping registered opposition comments, the housing plaintiffs found that more than 90 percent opposed dropping disparate impact liability, changes to discouragement protections, and the elimination of Special Purpose Credit Programs that expand credit access for communities that historically face persistent barriers.

“The CFPB needs to follow the law and return to its core mission of protecting consumers and small businesses,” said Paulina Gonzalez-Brito, CEO of Rise Economy, whose organization is also a plaintiff.

If allowed to stand, CFPB’s new rule will shift the burden of proof in cases of discrimination from the powerful to the vulnerable. It is also a misguided effort to make consumers prove intent instead of analyzing available, fact-based patterns of economic exclusion.

Equity in our nation’s housing finance system cannot be achieved until or unless families of color are afforded equal opportunities to build wealth through homeownership. Disparate impact rightly places the burden in proving marketplace discrimination on lenders and should be preserved.

“When the agency built to enforce civil rights and protect consumers walks away from the job, the rule of law remains” added NFHA’s Rice. “That is why we are in court.”

OPINION

NEW PITTSBURGH COURIER

Commentary

For Sale: Children’s nutrition (TriceEdneyWire.com)—They are calling it a budget cut. But let’s be clear: when Congress cuts WIC, it is taking food from pregnant women, babies, toddlers, and young children.

WIC is not cash welfare. It is not a giveaway. It is one of the most efficient and humane nutrition programs this country has ever created. It provides targeted food support, breastfeeding support, nutrition counseling, and health referrals to pregnant and postpartum women, infants, and children up to age five. It helps families buy milk, eggs, cereal, formula, fruits, vegetables, and other basics that make the difference between nourishment and hunger.

Now the House has decided that these families should do with less.

On June 4, the House passed the FY2027 Agriculture appropriations bill, including a $200 million cut to WIC and a reduction in the fruit-and-vegetable benefit. For a family already stretching every dollar, that is not an abstraction. That is fewer apples. Fewer greens. Less formula. Less food at the very moment when food matters most.

The numbers are stark. The House bill cuts WIC by $200 million and reduces the fruit-and-vegetable benefit. The White House proposal goes even further, slashing the monthly produce benefit for young children from $26 to about $10. That is a $16 cut per child each month—more than 60 percent—in the very part of WIC designed to put fresh food on the table.

Some will say that $16 a month is not much. But $16 is only “not much” to people who have never been down to their last $16. For a family living on the edge, $16 is milk and bananas, eggs and apples, bus fare to the grocery store, or the difference between buying fresh food and buying the cheapest calories available. A cut does not have to be large to be cruel. Sometimes the last $16 is the last straw.

This is what cruelty looks like when it wears a green eyeshade.

We are told, endlessly, that this nation cares about children.

Politicians pose with babies, praise mothers, salute families, and campaign on “values.” But values are not measured by slogans. They are measured by budgets. And a budget that takes food from women and children tells us exactly whose lives are expendable.

WIC also supports farmers, grocers, and local food economies. When a mother uses WIC dollars to buy fresh fruit, vegetables, milk, eggs, cereal, or formula, that money does not disappear. It goes to grocery stores, farmers markets, dairy producers, food distributors, and growers who depend on regular customers. Less WIC money means fewer purchases of healthy food. It means fewer dollars circulating in local communities. It means that a cut aimed at poor women and children also reaches farmers and small businesses. Nutri-

Julianne Malveaux

Commentary tion dollars are economic dollars, too.

That is especially important because healthy food is already too expensive for too many families. Fruits and vegetables are often the first things to disappear from a household budget when money gets tight. WIC helps keep those foods on the table. Cutting the fruit-and-vegetable benefit does not simply reduce choice; it narrows possibility. It tells a mother to stretch, substitute, and make do. It tells a child that fresh food is optional. It tells farmers that the public dollars that helped families buy their produce are no longer a priority.

What kind of country negotiates over the nutrition of infants? What kind of Congress looks at pregnant women and toddlers and says, “You cost too much”? What kind of moral arithmetic takes fresh fruit and vegetables from a child’s plate while protecting tax breaks, weapons contracts, corporate subsidies, and political theater? What kind of Congress spends nearly $2 billion a day on an undeclared war against Iran, then skimps on food for children?

The House has acted, but the Senate has not finished its work. Final negotiations are still ahead. That means advocacy matters now. Not next month. Not after recess. Now. The ask is simple: fully fund WIC. Reject cuts to the fruit-and-vegetable benefit. Preserve the virtual and remote services that make WIC accessible to working mothers, rural families, and those without easy transportation. Do not balance the budget on babies.

The United States can find money for tax breaks, weapons, walls, corporate subsidies, and billionaire giveaways. Surely it can find money for bananas, carrots, milk, cereal, formula, and breastfeeding support.

The families who rely on WIC are not asking for luxury.

They are asking for food. They are asking for nourishment.

They are asking for a basic public commitment that babies should not go hungry, that pregnant women should not be undernourished, and that children should have access to the building blocks of health. That should not be controversial. It should be the floor beneath our politics.

When children are hungry, delay is a decision. When pregnant women are undernourished, silence is complicity. And when Congress chooses austerity for babies while protecting abundance for the powerful, we should name it for what it is.

This is not fiscal discipline.

It is moral failure.

My letter to Mike Johnson (Trice EdneyWire.com)—Trump continues to brag about his violations of our laws and Mike Johnson nothing is being done about it on your watch. Just the other day, Trump and his warmongers decided to hit and destroy an Iranian water system.

Isn’t that against international laws?

Where are the so-called law-abiding Republicans? Mike, as Speaker of the House of Representative, as a Louisianian and a professed Christian, I truly wanted to give you a chance to succeed for our people. I assumed you couldn’t be worse than any other Republican Speaker in the past few years. Well, many times since I was thinking that, you have given me many reasons to know I was wrong!

Now, being from Louisiana, and keeping up with what goes on there since Governor Edwin Edwards came down those courthouse steps and being asked if he were guilty, he responded “Hell yes, but the SOBs are not smart enough to prove it.”

With all his bravado, Edwards was not a mean man when it came to the welfare of the people of Louisiana. I don’t choose friends lightly, but I can honestly say that Edwin was a friend to many people who look like me. He had another friend around him by the name of A.Z. Young who worked for him, and I can’t help but believe A.Z. was a positive influence on Edwin.

Mike, I wish you had such a person

Dr. E. Faye Williams, Esq.

Commentary on your staff When I look at current leaders in Louisiana, I wonder if any of them even try to influence you to do the right thing when it comes to the good of the people of Louisiana.

I have heard you speak and vote against many programs that could help those you serve. You know Trump and many people have no concern for what is good for the people of Louisiana. The state finally rose from 49th from the bottom of states in education. Yeah, Louisiana rose a little bit, but what if you, as Speaker, encouraged your friends to vote for the kinds of things that would be even better for your constituents? I see those huge votes for what Trump wants (like war spending billions to conduct them, personal aggrandizement making himself and his family rich at the expense of the people you serve. Yet, you also voted for cuts in health care and never came up with a better plan.

We heard Trump talk about “loving” inflation without a word from you.

You witnessed what I did. Trump’s insistence upon working to get a multi-billion dollar fund to pay criminals and put them on his staff to run the country, while firing over 300,000 Black women who do more to improve this country than anybody. You heard Trump say, “I love inflation”, and you didn’t object while families have no health care because they can’t afford it, can’t afford much needed food for their families, can’t send their children to college, etc. Black farmers have insufficient fertilizer to grow food and the list goes on while Trump becomes a billionaire and his good friend, Musk, becomes a Trillionaire!

The world has become a mess on positions taken by Trump who has declared himself King with the help of his Supreme Court on the position he stole from President Obama so he could be able to select someone who really cared about the least of God’s children. Some in your party are begging to have you wake up and see the true negative impact of Trump and his MAGA believers on many of the people you were elected to serve.

Please wake up and help America become a righteous nation for all our people—something it has yet to be. At least, ask your colleagues to vote for decency for all of God’s children! Act like the man of God you profess to be.

(Dr. E. Faye Williams is president of The Dick Gregory Society.)

Shame on you, Mike Johnson We have probably all used the phrase, “Shame on you” to express our disapproval of someone’s action or inaction. We are telling them that they should feel guilty, dishonored, or at least embarrassed for their actions and, in this case, inactions.

Mike Johnson, the 56th Speaker of the United States House of Representatives and member of the Republican Party, is in his fifth term as the representative of Louisiana’s 4th Congressional District. Prior to entering politics, he was an attorney for Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona.

ADF has been described as a 501(c) (3) nonprofit conservative Christian advocacy group. The group works to expand Christian religious practices in public schools as well as working to outlaw abortion, oppose same-sex marriage and other LGBTQ rights.

Others who have been associated with ADF are U.S. Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett, former Vice President Mike Pence, former attorneys general William Barr and Jeff Sessions, and Senator Josh Hawley. Mike Johnson has the right to be associated with ADF, but when he was elected to Congress, he became the representative of all the people in his district, not just those associated with ADF or having the same beliefs as those in ADF. Like every other person in Congress, Mike Johnson took the oath prescribed by Article VI of the United States Constitution which states that Senators and Representatives shall “be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.” The current oath taken by members of the U.S. Congress is as follows: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and

Commentary domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.” In 2015, Mike Johnson said this about Trump: “The thing about Donald Trump is that he lacks the character and the moral center we desperately need again in the White House.”

He added this about Trump: “I am afraid he would break more things than he fixes. He is a hot head by nature, and that is a dangerous trait to have in a Commander in Chief.” In 2015, while watching Trump’s performance in the debates with his family, during which Trump was asked about his history of calling women “fat pigs, dogs, slobs and disgusting animals,” he saw Trump interrupt to answer, “Only Rosie O’Donnell.” In response, Johnson said, “Can you imagine the noble, selfless characters of Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Lincoln, or Reagan carrying on like Trump did last night?” He then said that the voters needed to demand a “much higher level of virtue and decency.” How insightful Mike Johnson was then.

Johnson began singing a different tune about Trump and on January 6, 2021, Johnson joined 146 other House Republicans in voting against the certification of the 2020 election results in favor of Biden. Trump strongly supported Mike Johnson to become Speaker of the House in 2023 and later to remain Speaker in 2025.

During Trump’s 2024 campaign, Johnson said this: “When I got to know him personally shortly after we both arrived in Washington in 2017, I grew to appreciate the person that he is and the qualities about him that made him the extraordinary president that he was.”

Now, Johnson’s loyalty to Trump appears cemented. When Johnson was re-elected Speaker of the House in 2025, he said that Congress would “drastically cut back the size and scope of government.” “We are going to return the power back to the people.” Johnson promised, “a leaner, faster, and more efficient federal workforce.” Critics have argued that Trump’s actions with Johnson’s support have, instead, reduced government responsiveness, gotten rid of expertise, and led to reduced service. One need only to look at what has occurred with disaster assistance. Johnson has so aligned himself with Trump that, according to press reports, Trump has privately joked that “I’m the speaker and the president.” Trump has recently been more open in discussing his relationship with Mike Johnson saying, “I have two jobs: being president and being the speaker.” In News of the United States, an article was headlined, “It’s Johnson’s Gavel But Trump’s House.” An opinion piece in The Jerusalem Post in 2025 was entitled, “Mike Johnson, the weakest speaker, Trump’s puppet, and Musk’s Doormat.” Johnson appears to have little support and no respect.

According to Baptist News Global, “While Speaker of the House Mike Johnson gave glory to God for final passage of the ‘big beautiful bill,’ other religious leaders decried the legislation as un-Christian, un-American, evil and dangerous.” One wonders how Johnson can rationalize his radical turnaround concerning Trump.

Shame on you, Mike Johnson.

The Obama Presidential Center a model for equitable growth (TriceEdneyWire.com)—“This is an economic engine, not just for the South Side of Chicago … most certainly here, but it’s going to be an engine for the city and the region. It’s going to be a beacon of hope to the world at a time where I think we can all use a little hope.”—Valerie Jarrett At a moment when a sitting president squanders resources on hollow symbols of personal aggrandizement, the Barack Obama Presidential Center stands as a transformative investment in community, economy, and civic life.

I recently had the opportunity to visit the Obama Presidential Center – and I will attend the its grand opening on Juneteenth—and I found it to be a powerful testament to leadership, community, and the ongoing mission to create opportunity.

Rooted in the values of service, democracy, and opportunity, this critical space reminds us what’s possible when we invest in people, in hope, and in shared progress.

President Obama has called the Center “a living destination for people who refuse to accept the status quo”. In a democracy that demands active participation, a space dedicated to inspiring civic engagement is essential.

Economic projections tied to the Center estimate hundreds of thousands of annual visitors and billions in longterm economic activity, with thousands

Marc H. Morial

To Be Equal of jobs created during construction and ongoing operations. In communities that have endured decades of disinvestment, that level of economic investment represents opportunity for residents who have too often been left out of the wealth generated in their own neighborhoods.

Like Chicago, cities across the country are grappling with the challenge of attracting investment while protecting vulnerable communities from displacement. The Obama Presidential Center is unfolding in real time as an example that policymakers, advocates, and developers alike will study closely.

The Center has an opportunity to demonstrate that economic development and equity are not competing goals, but complementary ones. It can show that inclusive planning, community input, and enforceable protections can produce growth that benefits everyone.

Our own Urban League Empowerment Center was conceived in this very same spirit, with a projected economic impact of $300 million right here in

Harlem.

But the Center’s mission, like our own, goes beyond its own economic impact.

As Chicago Tribune art critic Lori Waxman wrote, “Visiting the OPC felt like being in an alternate reality. One where people of diverse origin, ability, and belief co-exist peacefully and productively; the value of the environment, public space, human health, and the arts finds expression everywhere, for everyone; and the future appears collaborative and hopeful.”

More than a traditional presidential library, the Center’s Forum includes the Hadiya Pendleton Atrium, a media suite for recording music and podcasts, and the Elie Wiesel Auditorium for performances and lectures. There’s a regulation-sized basketball court, a branch of the Chicago Public Library, the Eleanor Roosevelt Fruit and Vegetable Garden. The campus playground even includes a sledding hill; Michelle Obama had always wished for one when she was growing up in the largely-flat neighborhood.

The Obama Presidential Center is a reminder that development can be a catalyst for both growth and justice.

When we center community, honor history, and invest with thoughtful intention, we can build institutions that uplift neighborhoods rather than displace them. At a time when our nation is searching for models of progress that are inclusive and sustainable, the Center offers a hopeful blueprint.

Exposing racially coded strategies (TriceEdneyWire.com)—Donald Trump actually stated he could “shoot somebody” in the middle of Fifth Avenue in New York City and not lose any voters. He made the comment during a January 2016 campaign rally in Sioux Center, Iowa to emphasize the unyielding loyalty of his political base. The idea of a “kindred spirit” where separate individuals share the same opinions, feelings, interests, and values is not something we automatically associate with American politics. When like-minded individuals whose shared passions, perspectives and even prejudices form deep emotional ties, it counters the notion that opposites attract.

The shared energy between like spirits can create an unbreakable tie which explains the cultlike following achieved by Donald Trump. Conceited people are drawn to other conceited people.

Brash and egotistical people are drawn to other brash and egotistical people. Unfortunately, people who held a disdain for Barack Obama were drawn to Trump’s “Birther” conspiracy theory where he relentlessly promoted the false claim that Obama was not born in the United States, casting doubt on his legitimacy as a U.S. citizen and president.

We should never forget birtherism and the true meaning behind it. We should always see it as a racially coded strategy that helped Trump rise to power as a political figure by channeling fear and

David W. Marshall

Commentary resentment among many White voters, especially those who were uneasy with a Black president and the demographic changes in our nation. Researchers have shown that belief in birther claims was especially strong among conservatives with high levels of racial resentment toward Black people and saw it as a means of defending “real Americans”.

The insults, criticisms and conspiracy theories directed toward Obama shows a pattern of blatant racism which has never ended. During Black History Month, Trump drew significant bipartisan condemnation and public backlash for sharing content on social media that depicted Barack and Michelle Obama as apes. Racially coded strategies will always work because racist people are drawn to other racist people. It is a fact that elected officials and candidates will use racial hate as a means of political manipulation and control. Therefore, if any past, present or future acts of racism promoted by Trump is embraced by Whites who share the same kindred spirit, why are Blacks also receptive and willing to downplay this side Trump? When Black Trump supporters choose to downplay or reframe birtherism, it makes it easier for the broader MAGA movement to deny that its true origins and motives are deeply driven by anti-Blackness. This is why the Kanye West and Donald Trump highly publicized relationship was key during Trump’s first term.

West was a high-profile messenger and outspoken supporter of Trump wearing the MAGA hat and meeting with Trump in the White House. In 2018, West famously delivered a wide-ranging animated speech in the Oval Office praising the president’s “male energy”. Kanye West is not the only Black person drawn to Donald Trump’s “male energy” while ignoring the broader threat Trump poses to women and all people of color. This kindred spirit, in the form of “male energy” kept many Black men from voting for Kamala Harris for president despite her qualifications and experience.

More Black celebrities are now openly supporting Trump despite the threat of backlash from their fans and industry peers. Amber Rose, Snoop Dogg, Nicki Minaj and Nick Cannon have stepped out publicly in support of Donald Trump. Nicki Minaj is no longer holding back. She has branded herself as the president’s “No. 1 fan”. In an interview with Time, she stated, “Many celebrities feel the way I do, but they don’t say it. Sometimes you need one brave person to get the brunt of the impact. I think I am the catalyst for that change.

Hopefully, when they see me and hear me speak and feel my energy.”

It is not uncommon for Black professional athletes and entertainers to support Republicans because the GOP has always been the party of the wealthy. Many Black professional athletes and entertainers are wealthy individuals, and therefore they will vote and support their personal financial interests. But this is a different political climate where the rights of women and people of color are systematically being taken away. While Black entertainers may feel a kindred spirit connection with President Trump, many of their fans are being negatively targeted by Trump administration policies. MAGA support for Trump is rooted in racial hate, but it is also rooted in the belief that he fights for their priorities and follows through on promises—especially on immigration.

Let’s be clear. The policy of mass deportation supported by MAGA is another racially coded strategy (i.e. build the wall). It supports the agenda of “real Americans” while responding to the fears surrounding America becoming a minority majority nation. The MAGA movement is excited that Trump has become their champion for their White supremacy agenda. Nick Cannon is another Black celebrity to support the MAGA president. During an episode of his YouTube series, “Big Drive”, Cannon said “He is doing what he said he was going to do ….We got the Gulf of America now”, when referring to Trump renaming the Gulf of Mexico via executive order. While the MAGA movement likes the fact that Trump gets things done, let us not forget the means and methods of how things are getting done by way of human rights violations and the inhumane conditions at ICE facilities. Lastly, let us not forget that racially coded strategies have a long-lasting impact to our communities while being ignored by people of all backgrounds.

NEW PITTSBURGH COURIER

Rick Chow fired one shot but so did the prosecution Recently, a South Carolina jury found Rick Chow, a 61-year-old Asian store owner, not guilty of the murder of Cyrus Carmack-Belton, a 14-year-old Black teenager whom Chow suspected of shoplifting four water bottles, chased over 100 yards from his convenience store, and eventually shot in the back in 2023.

After the verdict, social media was bombarded with messages such as “The price of suspicion is too high” and “Black lives are worth more than water bottles.” To compound the perplexity of the verdict, Chow has a history of shooting at suspected shoplifters.

In 2015, Chow tried to stop someone he suspected of shoplifting. The suspect proceeded to their vehicle and threatened to shoot Chow. Chow fired multiple shots at the vehicle. No one was hurt.

In 2018, Chow confronted a suspected shoplifter; the accused attacked him, and Chow fired two shots, wounding his attacker. In both incidents, authorities said Chow’s actions were not criminal because, in South Carolina, self-defense law requires that the shooter does not instigate the incident, believes he or she is in imminent danger, and has no way to avoid that danger.

In 2023, USA Today initially reported that Carmack-Belton didn’t steal anything from the store. Carmack-Belton picked up the water bottles but put them back. After a verbal confrontation with the store owners, Carmack-Belton left the store and started to run. Chow, armed with a pistol, and his son chased Carmack-Belton. Carmack-Belton fell, then got back up. Chow’s son told his father that Carmack-Belton had a gun. At that point, Chow shot Carmack-Belton in the back.

A gun was recovered next to Carmack-Belton’s body, but Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott stated that the

J. Pharoah Doss

Check It Out investigation showed Carmack-Belton did not point the gun at Chow before he was shot in the back. Lott added, “Four bottles of water are not something you shoot anybody over, much less a 14-year-old.” Lott described Chow’s actions as “senseless.”

Chow was charged with murder. However, Chow’s defense attorney argued self-defense of others—Chow fired to protect his son after the gun was visible.

For the prosecution, it was a straightforward case. The prosecutor presented the facts to the jury exactly like the media reported them. The prosecution insisted that Chow wrongly assumed Carmack-Belton shoplifted; Chow and his son were wrong to chase Carmack-Belton as far as they did; and it was senseless to shoot someone in the back over water bottles.

Chow’s defense attorney agreed with the prosecution. He suggested that it was probably ill-advised for Chow to chase Carmack-Belton, but it was not against the law. More importantly, the defense stated that if Chow executed a human being over water bottles, then the jury should convict Chow of murder, but that’s not why Chow fired his weapon.

The defense asked the jury, if Chow intended to shoot the teen for shoplifting, why chase him for over 100 yards?

Why not shoot the teen in the back at 10, 20, or 30 yards? Chow did not shoot

because he had no intent to do so, but the situation changed drastically when Carmack-Belton fell. The concealed gun was most likely dislodged from Carmack-Belton’s waist when he hit the ground. Carmack-Belton retrieved the gun and got back up. Chow’s son saw that Carmack-Belton was armed and informed his father. Chow immediately told Carmack-Belton to drop the weapon. Carmack-Belton turned to run, and Chow shot him in defense of his son.

The defense reminded the jury that in self-defense situations, an individual can respond after perceiving a threat, such as the gun in this case, and the person perceiving the threat has the right to be mistaken. The prosecution defined murder as the intentional killing of another human being with malice aforethought. The defense gave the jury reasons to doubt the prosecution’s claim that Chow murdered Carmack-Belton.

Some believed Chow was guilty of manslaughter or negligent homicide, but he was only charged with first-degree murder. According to WJLA-TV, lesser charges were not considered because the act—a fatal shooting with a firearm—fell under the highest criminal category in South Carolina law, and the prosecution’s case lacked evidence or legal grounds to add lesser charges.

The prosecution tried to prove to the jury that Chow senselessly shot a teenager over water bottles, but the defense convinced the jury the case was not about shoplifting; it was about a father who saw a gun and had to make a split-second decision. Therefore, the jury didn’t convict on first-degree murder.

The jury might have convicted Chow of manslaughter or negligent homicide, but Chow wasn’t charged with those lesser offenses.

The prosecution took their shot and missed.

On Juneteenth, I’ll celebrate Black music at Andrew Jackson’s plantation (TriceEdneyWire.com)—This Juneteenth I will stand at the Hermitage and help celebrate Black music. The Hermitage was Andrew Jackson’s plantation, outside Nashville. I want to be honest about how strange that is.

I am descended from slaves and from the men who owned and abused them. The men who denied them their God-given right to freedom. My family was enslaved by the Blands of Virginia.

Richard Bland was the famous one. He was a patriot before there was a country.

He told the king and Parliament that a shackle chafes a man no matter how well you polish it. His young cousin Thomas Jefferson asked him to bring a bill to make it easier to free the enslaved. Bland did it. He was denounced as an enemy of his country. Then he went home and kept his thirty. He died still holding them.

That is my inheritance. My grandmother, Mamie Bland Todd, is the griot of our family. She carries two hundred years of it. Her great-grandfather Frederick was the only enslaved man named in his owner’s will, and the will was written to protect him. The man who owned Frederick was his own brother.

That is how close the blood runs. Thomas Jefferson is my cousin. He wrote that all men are created equal. Robert E. Lee is my cousin too. He took up arms to keep my other ancestors in chains. I carry the blood of the man who argued for freedom and the blood of those he would not free. I resent his cruelty. I pray my children show his courage against the men who would be kings. That is the duality of this nation.

So I know something about awkward

Ben Jealous

Commentary ground.

The Hermitage is beautiful. A thousand acres. A white mansion. Gardens.

The tombs of the seventh president and his wife. It is also a graveyard. More than three hundred men, women, and children were enslaved there. Archaeologists are still finding their graves. The land was Native land first. He signed the Indian Removal Act. He set the Trail of Tears in motion. Settlers’ bones are in that ground. The bones of the enslaved.

The ground is sacred for what is buried in it. It is stained for the same reason.

And we are going to sing on it.

Jackson owned the people there. He fathered no children, White or Black.

Betty cooked for him, as her mother had before her. Her son Alfred was born on that land and lived there longer than any man. After freedom came he stayed.

They put “Faithful Servant” on his stone.

But once a White man told him slavery had its comforts, and Alfred asked him, “How would you like to be a slave?” The man had no answer.

For a while that felt like trespass.

Who brings a celebration into a wound?

Black music was not made in spite of that ground. It was made on it. The field holler. The spiritual. The work song that

timed a hoe. People who were called property made them, and the songs said they were not. “Follow the Drinking Gourd” was a map to freedom. They sang it where the men who owned them could hear.

Juneteenth is the right day for it.

Freedom came late, two and a half years after it was declared, to people who had been free in the eyes of God the whole time. The day does not pretend the delay away. It celebrates anyway.

So I will go. I will stand where Jackson stood, and where the people he enslaved stood. I will not soften either truth. I will say their names if they let me.

We are more curious now than ever about how we are joined. I have a cousin who descends from the people who owned mine. We are kin. The country is like that.

Nothing feeds the American need for unity and hope like the music made by enslaved people and their children. It is the truest thing this country has made.

And we are still singing it.

So this Juneteenth, on sacred and stained ground, we will sing. And we will remember the oldest truth Mamie Bland Todd ever taught me: our people were always free.

And—oddly, ironically, and even somewhat poetically—it happens to be the same lesson her own slaveholding forebear, Richard, helped teach both his young cousin Thomas and King George.

Freedom is inherent. It belongs to us from the beginning.

What we should do post-Primaries

by Dr. John E. Warren As many states work through their Primary Elections, now is a good time to do some real assessments as to who will be on ballots in November’s General Election. The first priority of all people of color and Blacks in particular should be the election of Democrats at all levels. This is not because the Democrats worked for all our votes, but because voting for Democrats represents the only means of taking back control of our government at all levels from Donald Trump and his supporters.

We must send Democrats to Congress to retake control of the House of Representatives and the Senate. This is the

only way to return to the separation of powers that the Constitution intended. It represents the only way to stop wasteful use of our tax dollars on Trump projects designed to put his name on as many things as possible.

Next, we must control state and local offices which directly impact our lives when the wrong people are elected to office. Such elections would bring the President’s agenda closer than the federal government is allowed to do. For example, if a Republican is elected Governor of California, who has already promised to cut programs that so many of us depend on, his actions would reflect the endorsement that he has received from President Trump.

Bottom line, we must now look at each candidate in the November election in terms of their potential impact on the quality of our lives. Now is the time to get serious, to do our homework in terms of what people stand for and who among us still needs to be registered to vote.

Now is the time for group discussions and Town Hall meetings to get educated to the issues and not to assume we know everything. Our declarations of ignorance will allow for growth and forward planning. We must not repeat the low voter turnout of this Primary election.

Please let us hear from you, the voter.
