The first African American mayors were elected during Reconstruction in the southern states beginning in 1867.

Nine years later, white supremacists and a resurgent Democratic Party made it difficult for African Americans to vote in elections due to racial discrimination, such as Jim Crow Laws. But due to the civil rights movement and passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, African Americans' political participation has experienced a REVIVAL.

DMX, rapper and actor, dies at 50 DMX, a rapper known as much for his troubles as his music, died on April 9, 2021, his family announced in a statement. He was 50.

"We are deeply saddened to announce today that our loved one, DMX, birth name of Earl Simmons, passed away at 50-years-old at White Plains Hospital with his family by his side after being placed on life support for the past few days," family's statement read in part.

"Earl was a warrior who fought till the very end," the family continued. "He loved his family with all of his heart and we cherish the times we spent with him."

The artist had been hospitalized since last week when he suffered a heart attack at his home in New York, according to his longtime at-

torney, Murray Richman.

Artists, athletes and other celebrities paid tribute to him on social media Friday, April 9.

"My childhood and love for music would not have been the same without this man," actor Chriss Redd tweeted. "DMX was easily my favorite artist growing up.

I had every album, every ruff Ryder song, followed any artist he endorsed. Man....RIP the dog. There will never be another like him."

DMX (Dark Man X) began rapping in the early 1990s and released his debut album, "It's Dark and Hell Is Hot," in 1998.

With the deaths of fellow rappers The Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur before he burst on the scene, DMX became one of the

nominated for a Grammy in the best rap album category.

It was one of three Grammy nominations for the rapper.

He sold millions of albums, boosted by hits like "Get At Me Dog" in 1998, "Party Up," in 1999 and "X Gon' Give It to Ya," in 2003.

He parlayed his growing fame into an acting career, appearing in multiple films including, "Romeo Must Die" reigning stars of hardcore and "Cradle 2 The Grave." hip hop and was the premier His professional achieveartist signed to the Ruffhouse ments were often overshadRecords label. owed by his issues with subHis single, "Ruff Ryders An- stance abuse and run-ins them," helped to seal his crit- with the law.

ing at the time that he was "putting family and sobriety first."

That same year he talked to GQ about his struggles.

"I just need to have a purpose," he said. "And I don't even know that purpose, because God has given me that purpose since before I was in the womb, so I'm going to fulfill that purpose ... whether I want to or not, whether I know it or not, because the story has already been written. If you appreciate the good, then you have to accept the bad."

More recently, DMX thrilled fans last year when he appeared in a Verzuz battle with fellow artist Snoop Dogg.

Tishaura Jones elected St. Louis' first Black female mayor Tishaura Jones on Tuesday, April 6, 2021, was elected mayor of St. Louis and will become the city's first Black woman to hold that office after running on a progressive platform and a promise to reform and revitalize the city.

Jones, the city's treasurer, beat Alderwoman Cara Spencer by 2,280 votes, according to the final unofficial election results posted online by the city's election board.

Jones will be sworn into office on April 20, 2021.

In her victory speech Tuesday, Jones reflected on her historic win.

"This campaign can unequivocally say that we've begun breaking down the historic racial barriers and the racial divides that exist, and have existed for generations in our city," she said.

Spencer conceded to Jones Tuesday, April 6, 2021, according to CNN affiliate station KSDK. On Twitter, she congratulated Jones on her win, saying, "You have my support in making St. Louis the great city we know it can be."

This year's mayoral race was a shift to St. Louis' new nonpartisan voting system approved in November by voters. Under the new system, residents can vote for as many candidates as they want in municipal primaries and the top two vote-getters move on to the general election.

Jones comes into office amid the COVID-19 pandemic, two disturbances within two months at the city jail, and a significant increase in homicides in 2020, and a population decline.

"As a city, we've been surviving. We've suffered disinvestments, decades of violence, broken promises from our city's leaders, who have bowed to the will of special interests and insider dealings," Jones said Tuesday

night. "It's time for St. Louis to thrive."

Jones also said she "will not stay silent" when she spots racism, homophobia, transphobia, and xenophobia, religious intolerance, and "any injustice."

She said that St. Louis isn't "done avoiding tough conversations. We are done ignoring the racism that has held our city and our region back."

Jones told CNN's Erica Hill on Thursday that the city needs to work to reverse the trend of a "huge brain drain" and "should be sounding the alarm" and asking why Black residents are choosing to leave St. Louis.

"We need to provide opportunities, everyone to succeed, no matter their zip code, the color of their skin, who they love or how they worship," she said on "New Day." With St. Louis expected to

receive more than $500 million as part of President Joe Biden's economic stimulus package, Jones has pledged to disburse the federal funds "with an eye towards equity."

Her proposed priorities for the funds include rental and mortgage assistance, expanding small business grants, setting up new emergency shelters, and mass vaccination clinics.

Her approach to city policing will be to invest more in treatments for substance

abuse and mental health disorders and routing certain 911 calls to social workers and other licensed professionals.

She also vowed to invest to be an advocate for ending cash bail and to close the Workhouse, the city's medium security institution.

Jones told CNN that "there is a level of mistrust within our first responders, our public safety department, and we have to have the hard and difficult conversations to

heal those divides."

Jones ran for mayor in 2017, narrowly losing in the crowded Democratic primary to current St. Louis Mayor Lyda Krewson. Krewson, the city's first female mayor, announced last year she would not run for reelection and would retire at the end of her term.

Jones was also the first Black woman to serve as St Louis' treasurer, a role she's held for eight years and was recently reelected to last November.

Before that, she served two terms in the Missouri House of Representatives, during which she was the first Black woman selected to hold the position of Assistant Minority Floor Leader.

Jones' career in public service began in 2002 when she was appointed Democratic committeewoman of St. Louis' Ward 8.

AN EXPLORATION OF OUR LIVES AND LEGACIES

The History of Our First African American Mayors

By Tann vom Hove, Senior Fellow, City Mayors Research* Black Americans have become instrumental in US local government December 2020: It is thought that America’s first elected black mayors were Pierre Caliste Landry from Donaldsonville in southern Louisiana and Stephen Swails from Kingstree, South Carolina. Both men were elected in 1868, the year the 14th amendment to the US Constitution was adopted. The amendment gave citizenship to all persons born or naturalised in the USA. Pierre Landry later served as a judge and tax collector and sat for the Republican Party in the Louisiana State Senate, while Stephen Swails also joined the Republican Party and later became a member of the US Electoral College. (The Republican Party of the 19th century was formed in 1854 as an anti-slavery party) It took, however, another 100 years for an African American to be elected mayor of a large US city.

In 1970, Newark (NJ) and Dayton (OH) both elected Black American Democrats

as mayors.

In the last quarter of the 20th century and the first two decades of the 21st, African Americans increasingly became involved in all levels of local government. During the 1970s cities like Tallahassee, Cincinnati, Detroit, Los Angeles, Washington DC and New Orleans elected their first black mayors. By the beginning of the 21st century, following the arrivals of African American mayors in cities like Memphis, Chicago, Philadelphia, Baltimore, New York City, Seattle, Denver, St Louis, Rochester, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Dallas, San

The most recently elected African American mayor is Elia Jones of Ferguson (Missouri), the town which in August 2014 made the news when Michael Brown, a black unarmed 18-year-old, was shot several times and killed by a white police officer.

Evanston adds to a string of wins for reparations

The movement toward reparations for slavery received a significant boost on March 22, 2021 when an 8-1 majority of alderman in the Chicago suburb of Evanston, Illinois approved the first expenditures in a municipal reparations program designed to compensate Black residents for discriminatory housing practices.

The reparations program in Evanston has been in the planning stages since the $10 million program was first approved in 2019. At the time it was the first of its kind in the US. The specific expenditure approved on March 22, 2021 establishes a $400,000 housing grant program. In approving the measure, the aldermen said the reparations program would revitalize, preserve and stabilize homes owned by African Americans in Evanston while increasing home ownership and building wealth.

It is widely acknowledged that housing discrimination contributed greatly to the wealth gap, particularly during the Great Migration of Blacks from the South north in search of better paying jobs after World War

II. Nationally, the average Black household holds just one tenth the wealth of the average white household.

Ald. Cicely Fleming, the lone vote against the measure, told the Chicago Tribune she voted against the measure because it was “a housing program with the title reparations,” in it, adding that the housing program does not allow “people to dictate the terms of how they are repaired.”

The historical concept of reparations for slavery goes all the way back to the defeat of the Confederate States of America in the Civil War. After capturing Atlanta and securing re-election for President Lincoln in November 1864, Union General William Tecumseh Sherman issued Special Field Orders No. 15 on January 16, 1865.

The order allotted land to some freed former slaves.

The Lincoln Administration briefly formalized the practice of giving land to former slaves with passage of the Freedmen’s Bureau bills on March 3, 1865.

tion apologizing for slavery, but offering no financial compensation.

assassinated. His successor, President Andrew Johnson, vetoed reauthorization of the Freedmen’s Bureau and Congress failed to override the veto, ending the first reparations effort. The next push occurred around 1900 when several Black organizations asked Congress to provide former slaves and their children with pensions. That effort died with the onset of World War I.

In November 1989, Congressman John Conyers introduced HR-3745, a bill which sought to establish a commission to make recommendations to Congress on remedies for “the fundamenThe following month, the tal injustice, cruelty, brutality war ended and Lincoln was

You can’t pour from an empty cup

By Kathy Gaillard, freelance contributor Many of us have had to adjust to a ‘new normal’ whether learning to work from home, tutoring our children, or using technology platforms to ‘meet’ virtually.

Some of us have also had to juggle our schedules AND those of our children or other loved ones. The coronavirus has stretched us in ways we never imagined. With vaccines now becoming increasingly available to anyone who wants one, there’s not only a collective sigh of relief but much anticipated light at the end of a dark, frustrating, and sometimes lonely tunnel.

Veronda Jackson, program manager for a local nonprofit and mother of four, still gets teary-eyed when she reflects on those initial months of the pandemic when everything shut down.

“I was overwhelmed— working full time and helping my children stay on top of their studies was exhausting.

And, because I was cooking more with the kids at home all day, I began gaining weight and feeling miserable about myself. If it were not for my faith and my church community, I don’t think I would have been able to get through this,” said Jackson.

With children ranging in age from 3 to 17 years old, for the past year Jackson’s

Veronda Jackson and family days have begun before 7 a.m. and often have run into the wee hours of night.

“When my church started holding daily virtual prayer calls at 6 a.m., I made a commitment to get up even earlier. Having that time of prayer and sharing every morning became a lifeline for me,” she said.

Thankfully, Jackson’s employer also helped by allowing her the flexibility of working from home, enabling her to get work done while her three-year-old was napping and at night when the children were in bed.

“My youngest had just started preschool prior to the pandemic so getting her into a daily virtual routine took some effort. She would have a meltdown then I would have one. It wasn’t pretty,” said Jackson.

Also, as the founder of a group called Dream Loud, another saving grace for Jackson was getting together virtually during the pandemic. The group was formed to share their dreams and goals, and to provide an accountability platform for each other.

Throughout the pandemic Jackson remembered the adage ‘you can’t pour from an empty cup’ so she made time for self-care through faith, relationships, and family fun. At one point she even packed the kids up, took a chance on travel, and flew to Las Vegas for a week, since the children could continue school virtually. Throughout the pandemic Jackson and her family have thrived, survived, and will soon celebrate her daughter’s high school graduation.

Recognizing, accepting, and adjusting to their ‘new normal’ was key to their survival. Jackson’s understanding of the need for and taking steps toward selfcare were also critical. Her strategies for self-care are in line with what the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends, which are: • Find new ways to safely connect with family and friends, get support, and

share feelings.

• Take breaks to relax and unwind through yoga, music, gardening, or new hobbies.

• Treat yourself to healthy foods and get enough sleep.

• Take care of your body and get moving to lessen fatigue, anxiety, or sadness. *** To make a lasting gift to health research, consider joining the NIH’s ALL OF US Research Program.

Wealth Building Five pieces of money advice for young adults about to face the real world Spring is in sight, and right about now, you’ll see that anxious look on the faces of college seniors and other young adults about to face the real world for the first time. Even if they’re fortunate enough to have a job lined up, they are far from secure financially, and often have no idea how to handle their finances.

If this is you or someone you know, adopting these financial habits now will take the stress out of newly independent adulthood and pay off big in the long run.

1. Create a spending plan: a.k.a., your budget It doesn’t have to be complicated–it’s just about listing and keeping track of all your expenses and income on a weekly or monthly basis. It may not be pretty, but it’s better than the stress of not knowing your financial status. Also, there are plenty of great budgeting tools that are easy to learn and use. A budget is key to gaining control of your spending, and a sense of control as you face the real world on your own for the first time will really reduce your anxiety.

2. Follow the first rule of personal finance: Pay yourself first Begin building up your emergency savings right away, even if it’s only 20 or 30 dollars a month. Save at least 10 percent of every dollar you get from any source.

This money should go into a fund for emergencies–i.e., job loss–only, and should be separate from all other savings and other accounts you have.

your paycheck, anyway.

Staying on top of your student loans is also important for another reason: protecting your credit, which can impact everything from employment consideration, to renting an apartment.

It is much tougher to face the real world with poor credit.

history.

Also, don’t abuse credit by using it to pay for things you don’t have the cash for. Keep credit card balances to no more than about 30 percent of the credit you have access to. That means if you have a credit card limit of $1,000, do your best to limit your balance owed to under $350.

3. Attack your student loans–or, at least, don’t ignore them If you have student loans, explore your repayment options, and exercise them, if you have to buy yourself time or reduce your payments.

"Bee Fearless: Dream Like a Kid" by Mikaila Ulmer

c.2020, G.P. Putnam $17.99 / higher in Canada 240 pages Sometimes, a thousand ideas buzz around in your head.

You're creative, and you like to invent things and come up with fun ideas. That might make you famous someday, and it might make you rich. And in "Bee Fearless" by Mikaila Ulmer, you'll see how that's possible now, even though you're still a kid.

When she was just four years old, Mikaila Ulmer was stung by a bee. A few days later, it happened again but with a different bee. She cried, of course, because it hurt but her parents encouraged her to learn why those things happened. She discovered that bees are in serious trouble, and she became fierce about helping them.

At around that same time, Ulmer saw a flier for the Acton Children's Business Fair that was being held near her Austin, Texas home. She told her mother that she wanted to be in the fair, and because it was five months away, she had plenty of time to decide what she wanted to sell. Kids in Austin then were participating in a city-wide Lemonade Day to learn about business and Ulmer saw an opportunity. She'd sell lemonade... and to help the bees, she'd sweeten the lemonade with honey!

At first, she made a lot of mistakes in her new business, but that was okay. The thing is that there's so much to learn

book allows you to mindfully be a mentor to a kid with ideas. Mentorship is something that author, entrepreneur, and Shark Tank dealmaker Mikaila Ulmer advocates, and she advises readers to seek advice if they don't know or understand something, which is great advice for any age. For the adult entrepreneur, this book could also serve as a business primer because its kid-friendly simplicity doesn't diminish a reader.

Grief Have you experienced death of a loved one or someone close to you?

The goal is to find ways to prevent the development of complications of grief. Qualified participants must be at least 50 years old and should have experienced the death of a loved one or someone close (grief). If you qualify, you will complete grief, memory and other behavioral tests and MRI brain scans. Compensation for time and travel will be provided.
