Africans on the Move celebrates the 50th anniversary of 'African Liberation Day' At the first Conference of Independent African States on April 15, 1958, African Freedom Day was founded, a day to “mark each year the onward progress of the liberation movement, and to symbolize the determination of the People of Africa to free themselves from foreign domination and exploitation.” On May 25, 1963, leaders of independent African countries met to form the Organization of African Unity (OAU), to change the date of African Freedom Day to May 25, and to change the name from African Freedom Day to African Liberation Day (ALD). Today, we recognize the critical importance of our hone land, Africa, to our liberation as a people. The salvation and survival of African people depend on it. Without a land to call their

Obama to Morehouse Class of 2013: 'You come from a long line of strong black men' President Barack Obama delivered the commencement address to the Morehouse Class of 2013 saying: "You hail from a lineage and legacy of immeasurable men– men who bore tremendous burdens and still laid the stone for the path on which we walk." And he went on to explain the relationship the men from the country's only all-male black liberal arts college have with previous generations of black men. "You wear the mantle of Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, Ralph Bunche, Langston Hughes, George Washington Carver, Ralph Abernathy, Thurgood Marshall and Martin Luther King, Jr. These men were many things to many people. They knew full well the role that racism played in their lives. But when it came to their accomplishments and sense of purpose, they had no time for excuses," President Obama said. "You have within you the same courage, the same strength; the same resolve as the men who came before you," Obama explained. President Obama also urged graduates to think of more than their careers. He told the graduates to be good role models and inspire others, particularly members of the black community who need a helping hand. "There are some things, as black men we can only do for ourselves. There are some things, as Morehouse Men, that you are obliged to do for those still left behind.

The ACT College and Career Readiness Campaign began with six states — Alabama, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, North Carolina, and Wisconsin — to celebrate achievement and create awareness for the goal of college and career readiness for all students. Each state could have four nominees: a student, school, community or technical college, and employer. Just four national awards, one in each area, were given in this first year of the program. Rufus King International School received the ACT College and Career Transition Award. An International Baccalaureate (IB) school since 1979, Rufus King has created a college-bound atmosphere for its ethnically earned their certification. Twenty schools are now using the program in Milwaukee Public Schools, and they will cumulatively certify over 2,000 students this year. Additionally, BMO Harris Bank is providing parents, district administrators, and teachers with access to a two-hour online adult financial literacy resource. Powered by EverFi technology, the web-based learning high school platform uses the latest in new media technologies – video, animations, 3-D gaming, avatars, and social networking – to bring complex financial concepts to life for today’s digital generation. High school students will become certified in over 600 topics in financial education, allowing them to become more informed, responsible citizens. The 10-unit course offers 6-8 hours of programming aimed at teaching, assessing and certifying students in a variety of financial topics including credit scores, insurance, credit cards, student loans, mortgages, taxes, stocks, savings, 401k’s and other critical concepts that map to national financial literacy standards. The learning platform tracks knowledge gain as well as students’ attitudes and behaviors on these important issues. Students who successfully complete the course receive certification in Financial Literacy, a valuable mark of distinction on college applications and resumes.

and socio-economically diverse student population. The rigorous IB curriculum prepares students for the next steps in their educational and life journey. The school uses quarterly assessments to monitor student growth, offers career exploration and college search support, and requires community service for all students. Sargento Foods Inc. received the Workplace Success Award. The company has been linking the majority of its positions to the ACT National Career Readiness Certificate so it can use the system to aid in the employment process. Sargento has formed partnerships with Plymouth High School and Lakeshore Technical College to ensure students gain real-world experiences in the cheese packaging industry. An active community participant, the company supports numerous charitable groups directly and through its employees’ service efforts.

By Col. James Puchy (ret.) Memorial Day has come to signify the start of summer for many Americans and is often celebrated with cookouts, family get-togethers, road races and concerts. But the real meaning of Memorial Day has, for too many Americans, gotten lost in holiday hoopla. Memorial Day was created as an occasion to honor those who have paid the ultimate price to ensure our freedom. It is our opportunity to stop and give thanks for the many who have died protecting that freedom. Many consider the 20th century to have been the bloodiest century in all history. Since the start of the 20th century, American service men and women lost their lives in seven wars and conflicts.The number of lives lost, injuries sustained and families impacted is staggering. Regardless of the circumstances of the battlefield, the cry of the soldier remains the same --God help me. During the last century, the weapons of war have changed significantly. Our nation’s enemies have also

The real meaning of Memorial Day

changed during the last 100 years. Yet, one constant during this time of change has been the presence of the Bible wherever our troops have been sent. That’s because, regardless of the circumstances of the battlefield, the cry of the soldier remains the same: God help me. The Bible and its message of foundational hope have provided comfort and encouragement to those facing the most unimaginable circumstances. And, while far too many were lost in conflict, many more soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and guardians have faced the horrors of war as well as the challenges of coming home.

When they face the hurdles of readjusting to civilian life, once again the Bible is there to bring comfort, hope, and direction. Since 1817, American Bible Society has been providing free Bible resources to America’s armed forces. More than two million New Testaments have been distributed just since 9/11/2001. God’s Word provides peace amid chaos and perspective when the world seems upside down. It also provides shared encouragement for those on the battlefield and loved ones back home. For those who give their lives for freedom, words from the Bible are often the

last they hear in this world as dedicated chaplains hold their hands and honor their sacrifice--even as they are making it. I have had the supreme privilege of comforting those on the battlefield by reading words of comfort from God’s Word. I have seen the peace that comes with the assurance of strength and courage offered by God. The widows, widowers and fatherless children of our American military family also cling to the Bible’s truths as they stand strong within the loss of their loved ones. As we remember the sacrifice of their heroic loved ones, let us not forget their own personal sacrifices.

This Memorial Day, enjoy burgers and hot dogs with loved ones, but take a moment to remember those who can’t do the same. Remember those families who will have an empty seat at their table and the men and women who used to occupy it. One way we can honor their sacrifice is to continue to bring the comfort of God’s Word to those in harm’s way. Then pay tribute to these men and women by picking up a Bible and reading the words that echo on the battlefields of today and yesterday. Perhaps consider reading Psalm 91 aloud. Allow this unchanging hope to strengthen, encourage and bring peace to you on Memorial Day and every day. Col. James Puchy (ret.) served as the director of sustainment and information for the Army Chief of Chaplains at the Pentagon before joining American Bible Society in 2011. Founded in 1816, the American Bible Society exists to make the Bible available to every person in a language and format each can understand and afford, so all people may experience its life-changing message.

Being 44th in the nation in The struggle continues 59 years after jobs is nothing to celebrate Brown v. Board of Education By Peter Barca Assembly Democratic Leader Peter Barca (DKenosha) issued the following statement after the Walker Administration released new data in an attempt to spin Wisconsin’s lagging record on jobs and wages. The data put out by the Department of Workforce Development will not be reviewed by the federal government and able to be compared to other states until the end of June. This follows a troubling pattern where the Walker Administration continually attempts to avoid the perspective and scrutiny provided by a national comparison on jobs. “If Republicans spent half as much time creating jobs as they do spinning lackluster job numbers, Wisconsin might not be falling so far behind in job creation,” Barca said. “Wisconsin also ranks 45th in wage growth according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics and dead last in short-term job growth according the conservative U.S. Chamber of Commerce. “The Walker Administration neglects to mention is that Wisconsin was 11th in the nation in job growth the year before the governor took office. I find it highly disturbing that the governor, his partisan cabinet secretar-

By Damon Hewitt, Director of the Education Practice Group at the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund

Peter Barca (D-Kenosha) ies and Republican legislators are all patting each other on the back now that we’ve plummeted to 44th. “Spinning deeply troubling job numbers and telling everyone ‘it’s working’ when it clearly is not working for middle-class Wisconsinites is getting in the way of real economic growth in our state. These same people also claim things are fine at Gov. Walker’s troubled jobs agency, despite a stinging audit showing WEDC authorized illegal loans or tax credits, lost track of loans and spent taxpayer money on such questionable items as alcohol and iTunes gift cards."

On May 17, 1954, the United State Supreme Court decided a case that changed the course of American history. In Brown v. Board of Education, which was litigated by the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, a unanimous Court declared segregated education systems unconstitutional, marking the beginning of the end of America’s racial caste system. As we mark the fifty-ninth anniversary of that landmark decision, it is appropriate to reflect on the progress of civil rights efforts since Brown was decided. But some are now questioning whether American institutions should still use raceconscious tools to promote diversity and inclusion in education and beyond. That issue is being played out in Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin, the latest challenge to higher education affirmative action programs. But what we have learned since Brown suggests that we should be asking an entirely different question: In light of significant progress through mighty struggles, and with American society becoming increasingly diverse, can we afford at this point to allow

our institutions to go in the opposite direction? The closing doors of opportunity in states that have banned affirmative action programs have made the stakes clear. After Proposition 209 in California banned race-conscious admissions, the selective institutions with the University of California system became more segregated. And Texas’ own history provides another reminder. During the most recent years when UT-Austin did not consider race in admissions and instead used only race-neutral efforts, the percentage of African-American students never comprised more than 4.5 percent of enrollment, despite making up 12-13 percent of high school graduates in Texas and over 10 percent of the

state’s workforce. The stakes are high not just for those who seek admission to college; all Americans stand to lose. For example, colleges and universities realize that declining enrollment of African-American students limits their ability to realize the educational benefits of diversity and is not conducive to training the leaders of tomorrow who must be able to navigate diverse workplaces and environments. The issues in play in the Fisher case could also impact K-12 education, where waning political will has led in part to a significant re-segregation of America’s public schools. These trends exacerbate ongoing problems such as gaps in fiscal and human resources, access (Continued on pg. 19)

We were right (so says the census): Hidden swing voters tipped the ccales in 2012 By Marc H. Morial, President and CEO, National Urban League Last July, we released a report, "The Hidden Swing Voters," predicting that the African American vote would tip the scales in the 2012 election of Barack Obama, especially in several key swing states -- just as it had been a decisive factor in 2008. Earlier this month, a Census Bureau report confirmed this analysis. Not only did the 2012 black vote make the difference in several key swing states, including Florida, Pennsylvania, Virginia and the biggest prize of all, Ohio, but black voter turnout surpassed the white vote for the first time in history. The Census Bureau found: About two in three eligible blacks (66.2 percent) voted in the 2012 presidential election, higher than the 64.1 percent of non-Hispanic whites who did so. This marks the first time that blacks have voted at a higher rate than whites since the Census Bureau started publishing statistics on voting by the eligible citizen population in 1996. Since 1996 black voter turnout rates have risen 13 percentage points, and the number of blacks who voted in 2012 rose by about 1.7 million over 2008. This is even more remarkable given that overall voting among eligible citizens declined last year. It also demonstrates that in the face of a widespread voter suppression campaign, a record number of blacks heeded our call to "Occupy the Vote" -- an effort which reached 10 million people through traditional and social media, phone banking and grassroots and community outreach. In fact, all Census divisions where voting rates of blacks exceeded those of whites included states that introduced major voter suppression tactics in the year leading up to the election. While our organization does not endorse candidates, we do encourage civic engagement, and our affiliates have always played leading roles in voter registration drives. That is why the Census report showing that African Americans registered in record numbers last year was so meaningful. The reg-

Marc H. Morial istration rate for blacks rose from 69.7 percent in 2008 to 73.1 percent in 2012 -- the highest registration rate ever recorded. In Ohio, where 96 percent of the African American vote went to President Obama, the black registration rate was 74.4 percent. In North Carolina, a state the president lost this time around, African American registration increased from 71 percent in 2008 to 85 percent in 2012 with 80.2 percent of eligible black voters going to the polls, up from 68.1 percent four years ago. The increase in black voter participation is an historic turning point for several reasons.First, it is clear that Mitt Romney would have eked out a victory in 2012 if voters had turned out at 2004 levels when white turnout was higher and black turnout was lower. Second, due to an increase in overall minority voting, people of color will be wielding even more electoral clout in the coming years. According to noted Brookings demographer William Frey, "by 2024, their vote will be essential to victory." Third, this demographic shift is prodding both major political parties to increase their outreach and appeal to minority voters and to reassess the impact their policies are having on those communities. There is no doubt that the opportunity to re-elect America's first black president contributed to record black turnout last year. But, no matter who is on the ballot in 2014 and 2016, we must continue to exercise our voice. We must continue to exercise our vote. There is no way to make up for decades of discrimination that crippled the proud history of black farm ownership in this

Rebuilding our Community By Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D. Special for the Milwaukee Times

Well…what do you know! Dr. Andrew Calhoun Just when you think you have heard and seen it all… something else takes the cake and grabs the national and local news headlines. In most cases, it just simply takes your breath away or has you scratching your head. It does not have to be something that takes place overseas, another state or city… but how about your own back yard, in your neighborhood and on your block. Real life situations play out each and every day as people are trying to live and make the best of what they have. For many, their everyday life is quite a struggle, to pay the bills, keep the lights on, roof over their heads, feed the family, go to work, attend church and support various community events. They are not looking to be in the spot light, hold a political office, or be the CEO of a company… all they really want

is to live in peace, a nice and safe neighborhood, enjoy the fruit of their labors and quality time with the family. Is that too much to ask for? Too often we lose focus and become disillusioned about what it means to be a “good neighbor.” Of course it is easy to just stay in our own little world and forget about those around us. It is also easy to just look the other way, to not see something, hear something or say it’s not my problem. And of course it is easy to just keep the grass cut, bushes trimmed, and trash picked up, and sit down each evening and enjoy a cooked or take home meal. But being a “good neighbor” is about being aware of what is happening in the neighborhood and participating in keeping the community a wonderful place in which to live, work and play. And that is called the American spirit. See… the American spirit

is more than just earning a living, becoming wealthy or seeing your name in lights. The true American spirit is the willingness to help others who are less fortunate, those hit by natural disasters, enduring dangerous situations, overcoming acts of terrorism, and responding to a cry for help. The American spirit is embodied when one person reaches out to help another person in crisis, regardless of their personal background, race, creed, ethnic origin or faith. They are simply doing what comes natural to them… and lending a helping hand is as good as it gets.

National Health Month: National Cancer Survivors Day June 2, 2013 - (Week 1) “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” - 3 John 1:2 One of the issues often neglected in the church is the issue of health. In addressing health issues members will not only be healthier but they will be better able to serve God and others with the gifts God has given them. Charles Reynolds Brown, past dean of Yale Divinity School in his book “Faith and Health” (T.Y. Crowell & Co., 1910) wrote: “The Church of Jesus Christ ought to ‘teach health,’ not as its chief business, but as a leaf on the tree of its main purpose, which, as already indicated, is to produce the good fruit of Christian character and service.” June

is National Health Month. This month I will present a different health/awareness issue each week in an effort to encourage God’s people to take charge of their future by taking care of their health today. I plan to flesh them out and/or showcase them with actual examples of what we can do to support. I will begin this week with National Cancer Survivors Day. National Cancer Survivors Day is celebrated every 1st Sunday in June. Who is a cancer survivor? The National Cancer Survivors Day Foundation defines a “survivor” as anyone living with a history of cancer – from the moment of diagnosis through the remainder of life. National Cancer Survivors Day is an annual worldwide Celebration of Life. According to the National Can-

cer Survivors Foundation, it is a: CELEBRATION for those who have survived, an INSPIRATION for those recently diagnosed, a gathering of SUPPORT for families, and an OUTREACH to the community. Participants unite in a symbolic event to show the world that life after a cancer diagnosis can be meaningful, productive, and even inspiring. National Cancer Survivors

Day is also a day for everyone, whether you’re a cancer survivor, a family member, friend, or medical professional. This day provides an opportunity for all people living with a history of cancer – including America’s nearly 14 million cancer survivors – to connect with each other, celebrate milestones, and recognize those who have supported them along the way. What can you do? Celebrate life. Organize an event such as a candle lighting ceremony or candle procession to honor cancer survivors. Another idea is to hold a fundraising run/walk or bike race with a registration fee benefiting local cancer support agencies. Finally, another great thought is to organize a Health Fair. A Health Fair offers the perfect opportuni-

ty to educate the community on cancer prevention, treatment, and research, as well as the issues that confront cancer survivors. It offers the opportunity to provide information booths on early detection, treatment options, and support group and pain management resources.

Safely Home

Our sincere thanks for the many ways you have touched our lives through phone calls, prayers, cards, visits, ﬂowers, food, love and compassion. You have helped us in the celebration of our father’s life. The family is extremely grateful to each of you, moved by love, friendship, caring and generosity.

Did you wonder I so calmly Trod the valley of the shade? Oh, but Jesus’ arm to lean on, Could I have one doubt or dread? Then you must not grieve so sorely, For I love you dearly still; Try to look beyond earth’s shadows, Pray to trust our Father’s Will. There is work still waiting for you, So you must not idly stand; Do it now, while life remaineth– You shall rest in Jesus’ land. When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home; Oh, the rapture of that meeting, Oh, the joy to see you come!

Love, Joe Sr.

Three MPS Gates Millennium Scholars honored by district, 'College Possible'

Event Photo

Three Milwaukee Public Schools seniors are among just 1,000 nationwide to be named Gates Millennium Scholars this year, an honor that translates into a “goodthrough-graduation” scholarship to the college of each student’s choice paying for 100 percent of students’ unmet need. All three MPS students worked with their school counselors – led by guidance directors Natalie Anderson at Riverside and Brian Schneider at South Division – as well as College Possible Milwaukee, a program dedicated to making college admission and success possible for low-

income students through intensive coaching and support. Gates Millennium Scholar Mayra Alaniz is a student at MPS’ South Division High School who will be attending Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. Scholar Jessica Curry, a student at MPS’ Riverside University High School, will attend the University of WisconsinWhitewater. Her Riverside classmate and fellow Gates Millennium Scholar Kali Huettl will be attending Clark Atlanta University. The three were recognized at an event on Monday, May 20.

Where did I leave my keys? Maintaining a healthy memory If you are reading this article and you're over 40 you may be having memory lapses that are worrying you. Unfortunately, for many of us the worry is that we may be getting Alzheimer's. Today, Alzheimer's disease outranks both heart disease and cancer as the primary fear of older Americans. With time, this fear can prove to have some foundation. There are experts who predict that by the year 2020 Alzheimer's disease may strike as many as 10 million individuals. However, unless you carry

certain very rare genetic mutations, you don't have to be one of them. The guidelines in this article are a wonderful place to start maintaining your memory. With millions of "baby boomers" experiencing memory lapses, maintaining memory is a hot topic. In this series, we look at some of the most promising approaches. One of these is the use of effective dietary supplements. These are virtually free of the side effects associated with expensive prescription medications. The bottom line is to

"effective countermeasures." In Female and Forgetful, Lottor and Bruning point out that men's and women's brains age differently. Women suffer a greater loss of neural tissue related to memory and to visual and spatial abilities than men. Also women are more likely to form brain plaque. As a consequence, more women than men are diagnosed with dementia. The authors define the 10's of millions of women in perimenopause as victims of a "silent epidemic of memory loss". Men also suffer a decline in memory and other cognitive functions. However, because their hormone levels decrease more gradually than women's, it appears they are protected from the acute and often dramatic effects women experience during and after menopause. Additionally, research shows that brain atrophy in men typically occurs in areas related to thinking and feeling rather than memory. In one last gender-related debility, women are more likely to have low-functioning thyroid glands than men. Cognitive impairment is among the symptoms of this disease. In her writings, Nan Kathryn Fuchs, PhD, has reported that some researchers believe that as many as one in four women are hypothyroid. Dr. Nan thinks this may be attributed to an iodine deficiency and suggests that women get their thyroid levels tested. On his website, Dharma Singh Khalsa, MD, a pioneer in brain longevity, says, "…I am convinced…that short term memory loss and Alzheimer's disease can be prevented and treated using an integrative or holistic medical program." In his books and interviews, Khalsa reminds us that the brain is flesh and blood. In other words, it doesn't exist separate from us, rather it has the same health care demands as the rest of the body. This is the gold ring as we seek to keep our brain as high-functioning as possible. Next week: 4 - step brain boosting program.

Personal Finance & Business

By Jason Alderman Director of Visa’s financial education programs

Share your money before you die Now that the long-debated estate tax rules have finally been settled, let's get real: Despite all the hoopla raised, most people probably would never be impacted whether the lifetime estate tax threshold had stayed at $5.12 million or reverted to $1 million. In the end, it actually went up a bit to $5.25 million for 2013. Even if your estate will only be a fraction of that amount, it still pays to have a plan for distributing your assets. If your finances are in good shape, there's no reason not to start sharing the wealth while you're still around to enjoy helping others. It also doesn't hurt that you can reap significant tax advantages by distributing a portion of your assets now. Before you start doling out cash, however, make

sure you are on track to fund your own retirement, have adequate health insurance, can pay off your mortgage and are otherwise debt-free. You wouldn't want to deplete your resources and then become a financial burden on others. If you can check all those boxes, consider these options: Avoid the gift tax. You can give cash or property worth up to $14,000 per year, per individual, before you'll trigger the federal gift tax. (Married couples filing jointly can give $28,000 per recipient.) You'll probably never have to pay a gift tax, however, since you're allowed to bestow up to $5.25 million in gifts during your lifetime above and beyond the annual $14,000 excluded amounts before the gift tax kicks in – which

for most of us means never. Read IRS Publication 950 (at www.irs.gov) for details. Pay for education. If college is still far off for your children, grandchildren or others, consider funding a 529 State Qualified Tuition Plan for them. Any interest the account earns is not subject to federal (and in most cases, state) income tax; plus, many states offer tax deductions for contributions made to their own 529 Plans. And don't worry: If one child de-

cides not to attend college, you can always transfer the account balance to another without penalty. Roth IRAs for kids. If your minor children or grandchildren earn income (allowances and gifts don't count), you may fund a Roth IRA on their behalf. You can contribute up to $5,500 or the amount of their taxable earnings for the year, whichever is less. Your contributions are made on an aftertax basis but the earnings grow, tax-free, until the account is tapped at retirement. Fund someone's benefits. Many people cannot afford health or other insurance and so forego coverage, putting themselves just one serious illness or accident away from financial disaster. Many also can't fund their 401(k) plan or IRA. Consider

applying your tax-exempt gifts to help loved ones pay for these critical benefits. You'll not help protect them from catastrophe, but also greatly increase their longterm financial self-sufficiency. Charitable contributions. If you're planning to leave money or property to charities in your will, consider beginning to share those assets now, if you can afford to. You'll be able to enjoy watching your contributions at work – and be able to deduct them from your income taxes. Read IRS Publication 526 for details. Before taking any of these actions, consult your financial advisor to make sure your own bases are covered. If you don't have an advisor, visit www.fpaforfinancialplanning.org for help locat-

Should you 'freeze' your credit reports? By Jason Alderman Although the odds of having your identity stolen remain quite low, anyone who's ever been had their bank or credit card account compromised knows what a pain it can be to unravel the mess. Sometimes enterprising hackers just need your Social Security number, address and date of birth to start opening new accounts in your name. Many victims don't realize anything's wrong until they apply for a new account and find their credit has been trashed; or, they start getting calls from collection agencies regarding unfamiliar accounts. More and more people have begun blocking access to information in their credit reports, even if there hasn't yet been any fraudulent activity, by instituting a "security freeze." A credit security freeze is where you instruct the three major credit bureaus to disallow new creditors from viewing your credit report and score. Because most businesses won't lend without first checking your report, a freeze can deter identity thieves. Before going to the trouble and expense of doing a credit freeze, however, learn how the process works and be aware of several possible inconveniences: First, determine if you really need a credit freeze. If your credit or debit card is lost or stolen, you won't necessarily be a victim of identity theft, which usually

Attorney Michael Hupy sponsors three students to attend St. Marcus School On Tuesday, April 23, 2013, personal injury Attorney Michael Hupy presented a donation to St. Marcus School on behalf of his firm, Hupy and Abraham. The contribution will change the lives of three young children who will now be able to attend the school that sees 97 percent of its alumni graduate from high school. St. Marcus School (http:// www.stmarcus.org/school/), located at 2215 North Palmer Street in Milwaukee, focuses on college preparation and employs a strict “no excuses” approach. Current enrollment is 670 students and with long waiting lists; next year the school will reach its maximum capacity of 730 students. The school, which was founded 11 years ago, primarily serves students that come from low-income homes. Under the direction of Superintendent Henry Tyson, the school incorporates a high level of discipline in their approach, producing results that seemed unfathomable. “We are guided by a philosophy that everyone succeeds and that there is no excuse for failure,” according to Tyson. In fact, just over a decade ago, St. Marcus was a struggling Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod School whose K3-8th grade enrollment was hovering around 100. Not only has the enrollment sky-rocketed, but the quality of the education has been elevated as well. As the highest performing school in Milwaukee County, 85 percent of the 8th graders are proficient or advanced in reading while 74 percent are proficient or advanced in math. The school’s average daily attendance rate is 96 percent. Milwaukee’s School Choice Program has played a big role in the growth of the school. Ninety percent of the students participate in the program, but the voucher only covers $6,400 of the $7,700 that it costs to attend.

Here are some of Amanda, Danell and Nicole’s favorite grilling recipes.

Things to Know Before You Shop the Meat Case n There’s no need to pay extra for poultry or pork that’s labeled hormone-free. USDA prohibits farmers from using hormones to raise chicken and pigs. n Nearly all beef cattle, whether raised organically or conventionally, spend the majority of their lives on pastures eating grass. n Purchasing organic, grass-fed and freerange meats does not make them safer to consume. These labels refer to how the animals are raised, but all meat and poultry can contain bacteria that could cause illness. n Most cases of foodborne illness can be prevented with proper processing, handling and cooking of food to destroy bacteria.

Grilled Hawaiian Ham Sandwich

By Amanda Folkens Serves: 1 1 tablespoon brown sugar 1/2 tablespoon seasoning pepper 1 to 2 1/4-inch thick ham slices (about the same thickness as the bread) Cooking spray Pineapple slices (can be fresh or canned) 2 slices sourdough bread Preheat grill for high heat. Mix brown sugar with pepper to create a rub mixture. Using your hands, massage the rub onto both sides of the slices of ham. Ham slices should be completely covered (front and back) with brown sugar mix. Place ham slices on sheet of lightly greased foil, then place onto grill. On separate sheet of greased foil, lay pineapple slices out, uncovered. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes or until brown caramelization appears around edges of ham and pineapple. Remove ham and pineapple from heat and assemble onto toasted sourdough bread.

Beef Rack of Ribs

By Danell Kalcevic Serves: 4 to 6 Salt (to taste) 1 tablespoon black pepper (to taste) 1 tablespoon seasoned garlic salt (to taste) Cayenne pepper (optional) 1 to 2 racks of beef ribs (number of racks based on number of people) 1 tablespoon yellow mustard 1/3 cup brown sugar One bottle of favorite barbeque sauce The night before serving, prepare rub for beef ribs (salt, pepper, seasoned garlic salt and optional cayenne pepper). Sprinkle both sides of ribs and then rub vigorously. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, place on medium temperature grill and spread yellow mustard and brown sugar on each side of the ribs. Grill for 5 to 8 minutes until each side is slightly browned and caramelized. Remove ribs from grill and slice with sharp knife. Place individual ribs in a crock pot on low. Add one bottle of your favorite barbeque sauce. Let simmer 6 to 8 hours.

Brown v. Board of Education (Continued from pg. 3)

Black farmers (Continued from pg. 4) plantation owners and wealthy white farmers. The white farmers would then distribute the loans to their black tenants and sharecroppers. In practice, they were often not inclined to pass the funds along. This dynamic only grew more toxic in the 1960s. As civil rights protests rocked the nation, USDA staff intentionally withheld loans from black farmers who voted, helped register voters, or joined the NAACP. This discrimination continued in the years that followed, and it had a devastating effect on farmers of color. According

Brown was designed to address. And many of these issues are evident in the nearly one hundred K-12 school desegregation cases that the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund continues to litigate. The persistence of these issues nearly sixty years later reminds us of the work left to be done. And it points to the need for America to do more –not less—to promote equity, inclusion and opportunity. This is especially true in higher education and the continued need for affirma-

tive action programs. With the changing landscape of higher education institutions, and the perverse impact of the “new economy” on college access and affordability for all, especially children of color, the nation finds itself at a critical juncture when it can ill afford to lose a vital tool to opening pathways to opportunity. Doing so now would not only mean a change in policy – it would mean turning our back on the unfulfilled promise of Brown.

to the Census of Agriculture, between 1920 and 1992 the number of African American farmers declined from 925,000 to only 18,000. Despite this history of flagrant discrimination, President Ronald Reagan abolished the USDA Office of Civil Rights in 1981, leaving farmers with no options for legal recourse. The office remained shuttered until 1996, when President Clinton reopened its doors. That 16-year period of lax oversight was the basis of Pigford v Glickman. In the eighties and early nineties, thousands of farmers of color were denied access to loans; information on farm programs; technical assistance; and adequate loan servicing from the USDA. Some farmers were denied applications outright, while others were asked to fill out

an application only to watch the local USDA supervisor throw it in the trash. At the time, these farmers had nowhere to turn. In recent weeks the Pigford settlement program has been attacked with accusations of widespread fraud. These attacks are simply unfair and untrue. Since the first settlement in 1999, a careful process has been in place to weed out potential fraud. All farmers who claimed discrimination were obligated to sign a form under penalty of perjury attesting to the veracity of their claim. Out of 22,000 claims filed, only 60 of them were investigated for fraud by the FBI -- less than one percent of the total. Moreover, many farmers of color suffered discrimination but were left out of both settlements. As Judge Paul L. Friedman wrote in his 1999 opinion, Pigford v. Glickman was a "significant first step" in addressing the USDA's broken promises and history of discrimination. But it Missi New Creation should not be the last. One promising solution is 1404 the W.
