Biden: I Will Nominate the First Black Woman to the Supreme Court

Wilfred Cyprian Harvey

Wilfred Cyprian Harvey, 88 President Joe Biden President Biden and Supreme Court Justice Breyer appeared together just a day after news broke that the justice announced his retirement.

Biden seized the moment to repeat his promise to nominate a Black woman to the nation’s highest court.

“Our process is going to be rigorous,” Mr. Biden said. “I

will select a nominee worthy of Justice Breyer’s legacy of excellence and decency. While I’ve been studying candidates’ backgrounds and writings, I have made no decision except one. The person I will nominate will be someone with extraordinary qualifications, character, experience and integrity.

And that person will be the first

California Supreme Court Justice Leondra Kruger

Black woman ever nominated to the United States Supreme Court. It’s long overdue, in my view. I made that commitment during the campaign for president, and I will keep that commitment.”

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer cited the example of how Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who was hurriedly con-

firmed in only a month after the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Shumer said, “America owes Justice Breyer an enormous debt of gratitude. President Biden’s nominee will receive a prompt hearing in the Senate Judiciary Committee, and will be considered and confirmed by the full United States Senate with all deliberate speed.”

Oakland Police Department Now Offering Assistance to Victims of Crimes

By Post Staff

As Oakland has seen an increase in the levels of violent crime, there have been greater numbers of traumatized victims and survivors.

To meet the needs of residents affected by violent crime, the Oakland Police Department has created a position to serve as a liaison between the department and the community to help them navigate an array of services.

This furthers OPD’s plan to have victim-centered and trauma-informed responses to crime incidents. “For years, many in our community didn’t know where to turn or who to ask for help,” said Oakland Police Chief LeRonne L. Armstrong. “I felt it important to create the position of a victim specialist to give those most vulnerable the care and compassion they need at a very traumatic time.”

The Victim Specialist position is funded through a threeyear Department of Justice grant. Victim Specialist Brigitte Cook, said “As survivors or family members face some of the worst days of their lives, it is vital to have a compassionate bridge between them and the department to connect them to the resources that they are eligible for.” Cook also meets with local organizations to share information about services and create opportunities for problem-solving.

Florence McCrary, a member of the Violence Prevention Coalition Family Support Advocates, representing mothers who lost children to violence in Oakland said, “As a mother who lost their child to gun violence in the city of Oakland, I have to say that working with Brigitte Cook through OPD’s Florence McCrary (left) and Annette Miller, members of the Viovictim services was so very Continued on Page 10

Wilfred Cyprian Harvey was born May 29, 1933, in Washington, D.C., and passed away in Oakland on Jan. 14, 2022.

He was the second son to the union of Cecilia Beatrice Fenwick and Emory Augustus Harvey. He attended Dunbar High School.

He joined the United States Navy and served as an electronics technician during the Korean War on an aircraft carrier.

In 1955, Harvey returned to the states to marry his bride, Virginia, “Ginny” Bell Parkinson. They were blessed with a son, Patrick Wilfred Harvey, now known as Imhotep Elijah Alkebulan, and a daughter, Nancy Elizabeth Harvey.

Harvey was hired by the Pacific Bell Telephone Company and became the first African American to hold the position of Chief Equipment Manager.

He also became the first Affirmative Action manager where he made his mark by helping other minorities.

Harvey and his wife often spearheaded causes to protect

and preserve their Oak Center neighborhood. He was instrumental in saving the West Oakland Fire Station No. 3.

After the Loma Prieta earthquake in 1989, Harvey was a member of the Citizens Emergency Relief Team (CERT), which fought to reroute and align the double-decker freeway to make a pathway for the Mandela Parkway.

His membership in various organizations included: Charter member of Oak Center Neighborhood Association; charter member of CITIES – Black Telephone Workers; president of Oakland Better Housing; former member of the Knights of St. Peter Claver, Council #95; board member of St. Patrick’s Senior Satellite Housing Association; and San Francisco-Bay Area Chapter Tuskegee Airmen, Inc.

State’s Reparations Task Force Seeks Input from Black Residents in Virtual ‘Listening Sessions’

By California Black Media

To ensure that Black communities across the state voice their thoughts and concerns and provide input, the California Task Force to Study and Develop Reparations Proposals for African Americans is sponsoring public listening sessions.

Conducted in partnership with six grass-roots organizations, the first of the two-day sessions will be on Jan. 27 and 28, 2022.

The virtual meetings will begin at 9 a.m. both days.

On Thursday, Jan. 27, the meeting will feature testimony from experts during the segments on “Discrimination in Technology,” “Community Eligibility,” and “Public Health.”

On Friday, Jan. 28, the California reparations task force will hear testimonies from experts discussing mental health and physical health.

California’s Assembly Bill

(AB) 3121, titled “The Task Force to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for African Americans,” created a nine-member commission to investigate race-based inequity in education, labor, wealth, housing, taxation and more.

The commission is also charged with analyzing the state’s involvement in slavery, segregation, and the historic denial of Black citizens’ constitutional rights.

Current California Secretary of State Shirley N. Weber authored the bill when she was a member of the State Assembly and chair of the California Legislative Black Caucus.

AB 3121 requires the task force to submit its recommendations to the Legislature no later than 2023.

Biden Sticking With Harris Opinion

By Emil Guillermo

It’s year two of Joe Biden’s presidency and the best thing you can say about it is this: He remains committed to Vice President Kamala Harris.

Harris, the former California attorney general who announced her run for the presidency in Oakland, is a special symbol for all BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) communities — not just in our neck of the woods but for the nation and the world.

When we see Kamala, we see ourselves. We are there.

Some of you might think you could do better. But more often, we’re just glad we have a representative in government.

And that Kamala represents us.

She is the first Black/Asian biracial American in the second highest office in the land.

If she’s there, we’re there.

Kamala Harris. Photo courtesy of the White House.

Our interests are not forgotten.

That’s the ideal. But in the first year of BiHar or JoeKam, there has been relatively little to cheer about.

Yes, we have the physical infrastructure deal. Good for roads and bridges, not families and seniors. There’s free masks and tests. But the voting rights loss was disheartening. Democrats don’t have the votes to overturn Republicans blocking anything by filibuster, that stonewall device used

historically to kill civil rights legislation.

But Biden was positive in his One-Year-After news conference. He made news. He wants to run again — for now.

The big question was posed

by NBC’s Kristen Welker: “You put Vice-President Harris in charge of voting rights. Are you satisfied with her work on this issue?”

But Welker wasn’t satisfied with an answer on just voting rights, she wanted the HR status of the first African American/Asian American woman to hold the second highest office in the land. Welker wanted news.

“Can you guarantee, do you commit that she will be your running mate in 2024? Provided that you run again?”

The little aside at the end was to loosen the question a bit. But Biden didn’t hesitate.

“Yes. And yes.”

Welker, somewhat stunned Continued on page 9

Learning Black History Year-Round

Fort Mose: The First Free Black Settlement

By Tamara Shiloh

During the 18th century, Florida had become a haven for colonial South Carolina’s fugitive slaves. This was a result of the competition between Spain and Britain. Spain held a flexible attitude toward slaves and Black freedmen and thus encouraged British-owned slaves to escape to Florida.

Such a move would inevitably destabilize British colonization in the north.

Runaway slaves crossed swamps and forestlands on foot. Help provided by Native Americans along the way created the first Underground Railroad. Parts of the journey were treacherous, and many did not survive. Those who reached St. Augustine, Florida, were granted asylum by the Spanish government: freedom in exchange for converting to Catholicism. Male slaves served a term of military service.

The first group seeking these freedoms arrived in 1687: eight men, two women, and a three-year-old child. By 1738, the numbers increased to more than 100. That’s when the fortified town of Gracia Real de Santa Teresa de Mose (Fort Mose) was constructed on St. Augustine’s northernmost border (a fortified town is one with strong defenses, usually a massive wall structure and inner citadels or strongholds).

Fort Mose was the first free Black settlement in what is

now the United States, and the only one known to have been sponsored by a European colonial government. Two Fort Mose sites eventually existed: one occupied by the Spanish (1737–1740) and the other by Blacks (1752–1763). Although living there was peaceful, the settlement was not immune to violent opposition.

A war broke out between England and Spain (The War of Jenkins’ Ear: 1740–1750).

Citizens of St. Augustine and Fort Mose had suddenly found themselves involved in a conflict spanning three continents. This action of war was The Battle of Fort Mose (then dubbed Bloody Mose or Bloody Moosa).

The English employed thousands of soldiers and dozens of ships to destroy St. Augustine.

All runaway slaves were to be returned to their former owners. A blockade was set up and the city was bombarded for 27 consecutive days. Those protecting St. Augustine and Fort

Mose were hopelessly outnumbered. But that did not stop a group of Blacks, whites, and Native Americans from pulling together and fighting back.

Capt. Francisco Menéndez, a formerly enslaved African, led Fort Mose’s free Black militia in protecting St. Augustine. They lost the fort briefly but were able to recapture it, holding back English forces.

In 1763, Spain ceded all of La Florida to England (Treaty of Paris). The citizens of Fort Mose once again faced enslavement. To maintain their freedom, they abandoned the fort for safety in Havana, Cuba, then a colony of Spain.

Fort Mose was demolished by the British during the War of 1812. As the years passed, the land was swallowed by marsh; the important legacy of its community was forgotten.

But later in the 20th century, a team of archaeologists, historians, government leaders, and citizens restored Fort Mose to its rightful place of honor.

Today, the location of the fort occupied by Blacks is recognized as a significant local, national, and international historic landmark.

Police Shifts 48 Officers to East Oakland

By Bay City News Service

The Oakland Police Department (OPD) announced on Jan. 22 that 48 officers have been reallocated to East Oakland in response to community members who say they “don’t feel safe in their own homes.”

In a video posted on Twitter, OPD Capt. Casey Johnson said the officers will be patrolling the area from 82nd Avenue to the borders of San Leandro and the Oakland International Airport.

“Community members are advising that they just do not see enough police officers out on the streets,” Johnson said.

“With the addition of 48 officers, the Oakland Police Department and myself plan to work with community members to bring equity to East Oakland.”

COVID Winter Surge Brings New Challenges for Elder and Youth Health Care

President Biden Nominates First Black Woman to Serve on Federal Reserve Board of Governors

By Stacy M. Brown, NNPA Newswire

President Joe Biden announced on Jan. 21 the nominations of three individuals to serve on the Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors, including Lisa D. Cook, a professor of Economics and International Relations at Michigan State University.

If confirmed, Cook would become the first African American woman to serve in that role.

A Marshall Scholar from Spelman College who received a second B.A. in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics from Oxford University, Cook earned a Ph.D. in economics from the University of California, Berkeley.

She also served as a faculty member of Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government, deputy director for Africa Research at the Center for International Development

at Harvard, and a National Fellow at Stanford University. “[President Biden] is working to bring longoverdue diversity to the leadership of the Federal Reserve,” Erica Lowe, the White House director of African American Media, wrote on Twitter.

“Lisa D. Cook would be the first Black woman in history to serve on the Board,” Lowe concluded.

The President also nominated Phillip Jefferson, the dean of faculty at Davidson College in North Carolina, and Sarah Bloom Raskin, a former Federal Reserve and Treasury official, for positions on the Board.

Raskin was nominated for the top regulatory post.

The Senate must approve each of the nominations.

For Cook and Jefferson, confirmation would mean joining an exclusive club — the duo would count among just five Black governors in the 108-year history of

the Federal Reserve.

“Together with Chair Powell and Dr. Brainard, who I renominated last month, this group will bring much-needed expertise, judgment, and leadership to the Federal Reserve while at the same time bringing a diversity of thought and perspective never seen before on the Board of Governors,” the president said in a statement.

“They will continue the important work of steering us on a path to a strong, sustainable recovery while making sure that price increases do not become entrenched over the long term.

“I have full confidence in the strong leadership of this group of nominees and that they have the experience, Judgment and integrity to lead the Federal Reserve and to help build our economy back better for working families,” Biden said.

The COVID-19 winter surge has impacted different age groups in different ways, as caretakers struggle to take care of the elderly during this pandemic and parents remain wary of their children returning to in-person classes.

“It’s been here but it’s been everywhere for like the last 14 days,” said Los Angeles County resident Clarence Johnson whose wife, Tanesha Johnson, decided to shut down their daycare last year.

Across the United States, 1,099 children under 18 have died from COVID-19 since the start of the pandemic, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In California, the state Department of Public Health reports that 47 children have died of the disease.

This past December saw a four-fold increase of children admitted to hospitals over the past year, according to the Af-

rican American Wellness Project.

Tanesha Johnson, owner and director of the Sunshine Academy Childcare Center in Inglewood, made the choice to close her daycare after reflecting on her own concerns as a parent.

“When I started seeing how fast the COVID-19 virus began to spread, I had to now think as a mother and not just as a business owner,” said Johnson. “I said, ‘OK, if I did not own a daycare, would I feel comfortable sending my children to school at this time?’ and the answer was no.”

Johnson said she is still cautious about her children returning to school and hopes that kids will be required to get tested before returning.

Both the federal and state governments have been pushing for more tests in schools, with Gov. Gavin Newsom announcing that each student in public school will get two athome COVID-19 test kits.

The Biden administration

announced that they will be implementing initiatives that will increase the number of tests in schools by 10 million per month.

“These additional tests will help schools safely remain open and implement screening testing...With the additional 10 million tests per month, we will make available to schools more than double the volume of testing that took place in schools across the nation in November 2021,” read the press release from the White House.

In the U.S., only 27% of parents of 5- to 11-year-olds are in favor of vaccinating their children, according to a Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) survey.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about a number of challenges for the country’s aging population as well, particularly for African Americans and other minorities.

Race and Health Care: New Report Shares Insights on Black Californians

By Antonio Ray Harvey, California Black Media

In keeping with its commitment to ending health inequities, the California Health Care Foundation (CHCF) released the first phase of a three-part study documenting how race and racism shape the health care experiences of Black Californians.

The report, “In Their Own Words: Black Californians on Racism and Health Care,” was written by health services researcher Dr. Linda Cummings. The study synthesizes hour-long interviews with 100 Black Californians conducted from June to August 2021.

According to Katherine Haynes, a senior program officer serving on CHCF’s People-Centered Care team, “The project is to understand the interactions between racism, health and healthcare.”

The first phase “is in-depth interviews that are really designed to gain a deep understanding of Black Californians’ perception of racism in this state’s healthcare system and its impact on them.”

CHCF’s main objective is to advance meaningful, measurable improvements in the way the health care delivery system provides care to the people of California, specifically individuals who are financially challenged and whose needs are not well served in the healthcare system.

EVITARUS, a Blackowned Los Angeles-based public opinion research firm, is conducting the three-phase study for CHCF. The firm has extensive experience polling

California Health Care Foundation interviewed 100 Black Californians for its study on discrimination in the summer of 2021.

California’s diverse constituencies and maintains longstanding relationships with Black-led community organizations and media.

“Dr. Linda Cummings wrote the report, and we did the research. We designed the study, performed the data collection as well as the data analysis that supported Dr. Cummings and her findings,” according to Shakari Byerly, EVITARUS managing partner. “It was a thorough recruitment process and screening of those that indicated an interest in participation. The participants also received an honorarium (of $125) for their participation.”

Findings from the first phase cautioned that just having a Black physician did not automatically result in better care. Negative experiences with Black physicians and other health providers of color can be an obstacle to health care, too.

“It is the subtle, the microaggressions that happen within the health care field.

So, I am resistant to get help unless I feel comfortable with the person who may or may not look like me,” a 33-year-

old Black woman from the San Francisco Bay Area said.

“But I also have been discriminated against a lot from Black physicians as well.”

Cummings wrote that more than half of the respondents said that, at some time in their lives, they had been unhoused, without a stable place to live, or stayed with a family member or friend because they did not have a place of their own.

Notably, the study highlighted that the participants took their health care seriously.

“The respondents really spoke about how they were taking action to pursue health, advocating for themselves in the health care system and taking steps to protect themselves from harm in the health care system,” said Haynes.

Nearly all the respondents (93%) had some form of health insurance. The majority were covered through employer-sponsored plans at 40% or Medi-Cal at 26%, the study reports.

The mix of participants also reflected the ethnic diversity of Black Californians.

The majority of respondents identified as Black or African American (83%), Black and multiracial (6%), African (5%), Afro-Caribbean (4%), Afro-Latino (1%), and BlackNative American (1%), Byerly said.

“Everyone identified as Black, but we recognize that people come from different backgrounds,” Byerly said.

“It supports our research design to make sure that we show a full range of our community in California.”

Byerly also shared that 62% of the participants said they have experienced “some type of discrimination” based on their background while getting healthcare for themselves.

About 59% said they were treated unfairly while getting healthcare for a family member, she added.

Phase II of the ‘Listening to Black Californians’ study examines “structural issues” in the health care system gleaned from focus group discussions with Black Californians and key health care stakeholders,” Haynes said.

The third and final phase of the study will be a statewide survey of Black California residents. It will be crafted to evaluate the extent to which the Phase I and Phase II findings are represented in the general Black Californian population.

“The second phase, with 18 focus groups, was completed right before the winter holidays.

The third phase, we hope, will have over 3,000 Black-Californian participants,” Hayes said.

“The final report is expected in the summer of 2022.”

Virtual Workshop for Families With Children and Youth Facing Mental Health Challenges

By Margot Dashiell

“You Are Not Alone” is the first program of the new year for the African American Family Outreach Project, presenting noted speakers addressing concerns of families whose children and youth face mental health or emotional challenges.

School issues, for example, often affect a child’s mental health and a child’s emotional issues or trauma are likely to affect school performance. In Alameda County, services for youth include young people up through the age of 24. This program is free.

Headlining the Saturday event will be two speakers.

Lisa Carlisle, the director of the Children and Youth System of Care for the Alameda County Behavioral Health department, will provide an overview of child and adolescent development, the impact of trauma and the availability of services in Alameda County. Having worked in the classroom, in school administration and mental health settings,

Carlisle comes with a depth of understanding of the need for strong partnerships between schools and mental health service providers.

Karriem Salaam, M.D., a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in children and adolescents will address the needs of young people in the COVID environment. He will also explain the importance of a full patient evaluation before considering medication. Salaam has also contributed to the book “Mind Matters,” writing about the importance of a full understanding of medications, their benefits and side effects.

Young people who may have faced trauma or emotional struggles often act out at school, with peers or at home. For family caregivers, information provided at the event will support families in developing a home plan vital for good outcomes with their children, with schools and with service providers. The event will run from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 5, 2022. To register go to https:// bit.ly/AAFOPWorkshop or call 510-697-8533.

COVID Winter Surge Brings New Challenges for Elder and Youth Health Care Continued from page 3

65 and older who received a booster shot are Black.

Earlier this month, retired Assemblymember Cheryl R. Brown (D-San Bernardino), who is a member of the California Commission on Aging, hosted a news briefing with journalists featuring caregivers discussing the difficulties of taking care of aging adults in the state. The virtual conversation was organized by St. Paul AME Church in San Bernardino, Black Voice News in Riverside and Ethnic Media Services.

According to Donna Ben-

ton, Research Professor of Gerontology at USC, caretakers of aging Californians, including family members, have also been impacted.

“The majority of care, elder care in our state, is done by family members,” she said.

“We are an essential part of the healthcare system.”

Benton, who is also director of the USC Family Caregiver Support Center and the Los Angeles Caregiver Resource Center, said there are nearly 4.5 million family caregivers in California.

One caretaker, Ruth Rembert, who lives in the Inland

Empire, talked about tending to her ill husband and how the pandemic puts him at greater risk.

“His immune system was compromised,” she said. “He has two strikes against him: Number one is his age and also his medical issues.”

She also emphasized her support for more people being immunized.

“This pandemic has definitely been a challenge for me and for my husband,” she said. “We all wish this would be over, but it doesn’t look like it’s going to be anytime soon unless we take seriously the

importance of vaccinations.”

Rev. Noella Buchanan, caregiver coordinator for the Southern California Conference of the African Methodist Church Ministerial Alliance, said most elderly African Americans are people of faith and that plays a role in the way they approach their health care.

“We need to share with them that if God has opened up a way for someone to come up with a vaccine, we need to trust,” she said. “And part of our trust comes from what we are seeing. We are seeing loved ones die. And the loved

data base. A year and a half later, when NBFA growers met all the required elements for a potato delivery contract, the company’s executives appar-

ently had lost interest in keeping its part of the bargain.”

“Our livelihood and financial stability are at stake,” Boyd said. “Some Black farmers have actually lost their

farms amid this treatment.”

Boyd, who says he is a shareholder in PepsiCo, announced he will seek a solution for the NBFA from PepsiCo’s CEO and chairman.

providing the highest level of customer service and diagnostic quality and will not resume collection of patient samples until staffing resources permit CCC to operate at full capacity,” the Center said in a statement on its website. “CCC will provide an update on reopening plans when appropriate.”

Meanwhile, a second national COVID testing company, O’Hare Clinic Lab, also came under scrutiny this week for similar issues.

The Chicago-based company, which has more than 100 locations across the country and has received more than $186 million in funding from the federal government, according to Block Club Chicago, is under investigation by the Illinois Department of Health and the Illinois Attorney General’s office.

Many O’Hare patients told Block Club Chicago that they never got results or received them weeks late and that they couldn’t reach the company

when trying to get answers.

O’Hare said in a statement that “the Omicron surge provided enormous unforeseen challenges” for the company but that the company was working to “provide our customers with the quick and reliable results they expect and deserve.”

This story was written using reporting from Block Club Chicago and NBC News Bay Area.

which can damage the tests and make them unusable.

Other former employees said that when test results were delayed — often for several weeks — they were instructed to lie about results when people called to inquire. The husband of the company’s CEO has posted on social media about buying luxury cars with “COVID money” from the testing franchise.

“CCC remains committed to

Port Sees Record Import Volume, Export Declines in 2021

By Bay City News

The Port of Oakland is reporting a record volume of imports for 2021 but a decline in the number of exports due to supply chain “misery.”

The port handled the equivalent of 1.05 million 20-foot import containers last year — the most in its 94-year history and 6% over 2020 totals, port officials said Monday.

However, its 2021 export volume — 2.4 million 20-foot containers — was 8% lower than the prior year because of

disruptions associated with supply chain problems, ac-

cording to port officials.

“Unprecedented” U.S. con-

sumer demand boosted import numbers but voyage cancellations and a cargo container shortage led to the export slow-down, port officials said.

More supply chain problems are expected in 2022 “as trade growth continues to outpace supply chain capacity,” according to the port, which is implementing a new queueing system for arriving ships and offering an empty container yard for exporters to help cope with disruptions.

How California Districts Seek to Recruit, Retain Black Teachers Amid Shortage Experts blame the shortage on underrepresentation in colleges and discrimination on the job

By Ali Tadayon, EdSource

A growing body of research shows that Black students who have at least one Black teacher growing up are more likely to graduate high school and enroll in college than those who don’t.

Yet California still woefully lacks Black teachers.

Experts attribute the lack of Black K-12 teachers in California to a number of barriers, including underrepresentation in teacher credentialing programs, as well as workplace discrimination that prompts some to leave the profession.

As America attempts to reckon with racial injustice, some California school districts are adopting teacher pipeline programs specifically targeting potential Black teachers while also making efforts to retain teachers and listen to what might turn them away.

California Department of Education data shows that in the 2018-19 school year, the most recent year available, only 3.9% of public school teachers in the state — around 12,000 — were Black, according to Ed-Data. Meanwhile, Black students — about 335,000 — made up 5.4% of the state’s enrollment.

Return to a calling Michael Obah, a biology teacher at Oakland’s MetWest High School, said the lack of Black teachers in California is what inspired him to return to his “calling,” leaving behind a well-paid corporate accounting job in San Francisco. Obah was a high school teacher for five years in his home country of Ghana before immigrating to the United States in 2001.

“The amount of money I was making wasn’t what was giving me happiness,” Obah said. “I would read the news and see minorities struggling, people who look like me not being able to get jobs, homes, and going through a lot of struggle to be able to achieve

in school.”

Obah said he was able to pursue the career change because of Oakland Unified’s Grow Our Own programs.

The teacher residency program pays student teachers a $15,000 stipend while they earn their credentials and apprentice under a mentor. In addition to the stipend, Obah said he’s also received emotional support, job-site support, help with test preparation and interviews, and links with Oakland schools for jobs.

New programs to break barriers Gov. Gavin Newsom and lawmakers allocated $350 million in the 2021-22 budget for one-time grants to develop new or expand existing teacher residency programs. UC Berkeley Graduate School of Education associate professor Travis Bristol, who chairs the state Department of Education’s Educator Diversity Advisory Group, said the cost of teacher preparation programs is one of the major barriers impeding the pipeline of Black teachers.

The funding of residency programs indicates “some real focus” by the state on trying to remove that barrier, Bristol said.

Bristol said revenue surpluses in recent years and additional federal funding through the American Rescue Plan have put the state in a good financial position to invest in such programs.

The state is also in a good political position for such efforts. State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond and State School Board President Linda Darling-Hammond have spoken in support of hiring more Black teachers.

“There is a policy moment to really move the needle on teacher diversity here in the state,” Bristol said.

Oakland Unified’s “pipeline” programs are working to attract, grow, develop and retain Black educators in the city, said Sarah Glasband, the district’s director of talent de-

velopment, recruitment and retention. Pipelines are programs aimed at providing underrepresented groups the resources they need to enter specific professions.

Some of Oakland Unified’s programs are aimed at substitute teachers and other district employees who want to become teachers. The district also provides support for teachers going through alternative licensing routes, Glasband said, and offers debt relief, license test preparation and payment of tuition.

The result has been an increase in Black teacher net retention rates from 73% in 2016-17 to 86% in 2020-21.

During 2020-21, Black students made up 22.1% of Oakland Unified’s enrollment, and Black teachers made up 19.9% of the district’s teachers.

A long way to go Obah, the biology teacher, said he saw the underrepresentation of Black teachers firsthand early in the credentialing process. He was the only person of color out of about 40 students in his teacher credential program for science at Cal State East Bay. “My co-students were very inclusive, but there is always something in the background when you look around and you’re the only person of color,” he said.

A December 2020 analysis

by TNTP (formerly The New Teacher Project) found that almost every state had higher

percentages of teacher enrollees who identified as white when compared with white public school students. Nationally, enrollees at teacher preparation programs were nearly two-thirds white while public school students were 475% white.

Jacob Guthrie, who heads teacher recruitment, selection and retention for Los Angeles Unified’s Black Student Achievement Plan, said the underrepresentation of people of color — especially men of color — in higher education prompted the district to create its own in-house credentialing program, which is approved by the state’s Commission on Teacher Credentialing.

The program has allowed substitute teachers, paraprofessionals, administrative assistants and even bus drivers to become credentialed teachers while earning a salary and benefits at their original jobs, Guthrie said.

Making a difference Obah said he shares a special connection with Black students.

“I feel like they relate to me, and I relate to them,” he said.

“They’re curious about Africa.

Our ancestry alone is a strong bond, and I think they see me in them, and they’re able to approach me more.”

He’s had Black students who say they participate more in his class than other classes. One day, Obah said, one student came to him in tears, saying he had sui-

Doctor Prescribes “Common Sense” for COVID-19 Pandemic

By Tanya Dennis

A member of Oakland Frontline Healers believes that simple common sense is the practice needed to halt the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dr. Donna Carey, a physician for Alameda County and first lady of True Vine Ministries — which has provided testing and vaccines for the virus — spoke to the Oakland Post in a recent interview.

“If we’re to recover from this pandemic and return to normal, we must approach COVID-19 with common sense,” noting that as of Nov. 9, 2021, Alameda County has seen over 120,000 infections and over 1,400 deaths, with African Americans, Latino/a/x, and Pacific Islanders disproportionately affected.

“People have a false sense that the worse is over because the Omicron variant is not as deadly as the Delta variant, but what they don’t realize is that, although the milder Omicron

Dr. Donna Carey, a physician for Alameda County and first lady of True Vine Ministries

variant dominates the news, the more deadly Delta variant hasn’t gone anywhere,” Carey said.

“It’s still here and Omicron is so contagious it has surpassed the deaths caused by the Delta variant because of increased infection rates,” Carey said. “An average of 2,200 people a day die (nationally), mostly unvaccinated, due to Omicron. I recommend everyone double-mask when out in public.”

Carey further recommends people remain in their personal

social bubbles. “When COVID-19 hit in 2020, we were advised to keep our social circles small,” Carey said.

People are returning to theaters, restaurants, and gatherings with strangers. “Use common sense,” Carey said. “You don’t know where these people have been or what they have been exposed to. Stay in your bubble, only socialize with close friends and family.”

Carey recommends everyone continue to employ good handwashing routines as well. “Good hand washing is also good for the flu virus,” she said. “The reason we had such a low flu season last year was because people were washing their hands. Germs are there when you scratch your eyes or put something in your mouth: hand washing is about cleanliness and should continue as a life habit.”

Expressing concern over the long-range impact of the virus on children, Carey encourages people ages 5 and older to get

Biden Sticking With Harris

Continued from page 2

by the brevity, asked, “Care to expand?”

“There’s no need to,” said Biden. “She could be my running mate, number one. And number two, I did put her in charge. I think she’s doing a good job.”

Biden was clearly in assumptive mode. He’s running.

With Harris. Again. And he says he’s going to get out of his office and see people face-toface around the country more.

Sounds like a campaign.

That may be a way of jumpstarting his presidency, but it sounded more like jumping over the problems of today, which remain primarily COVID and the economy.

If President Biden wants to jumpstart anything, he simply needs to let us all know “he gets us.”

By that, I mean he needs to show he understands what all Americans are going through.

Does he know the price of bread and milk? OK, how about vegan food?

The press conference coincided with the Asian American community’s mourning of Michelle Go. The 40-year-old woman from Fremont had finished an MBA in New York City and was settling in as an American success story. On the Times Square subway platform that week she was pushed from behind onto the tracks and to her death.

In some ways, the best way to remember Go is as a metaphor for where we all are in this country.

vaccinated. “Our children are facing long-term consequences. Omicron has changed the landscape,” Carey said. “There have been over 1 million pediatric cases (nationally) in the last two weeks. That’s an 80% increase of infection.

“Will those children fully recover? We don’t know what the long-term effect will be in 20 or 30 years. Will this impact their health and reactivate like chicken pox and create shingles or create brain fog?”

The best protection for kids ages 5 and under is for their parents to be vaccinated and continue to stay vigilant “about who comes over your house, where your kids are going, and show them the right way to wear a mask. Kids playing sports should limit their play to one team, not one or two, even if they are vaccinated. Limiting exposure (to the virus) is key,” Carey said.

We are all hurting in this country and looking for a sense of normal. We’ve all been knocked from behind, by COVID and the economy. And by the previous administration.

cidal thoughts and felt he “wasn’t proficient, wasn’t worthy.” Obah said he “seized the opportunity” and assured the student that there was nothing wrong with him — that it was up to teachers to present the class contents in a way that he can learn in a stress-free environment.

“I know for sure he bypassed other teachers and didn’t break down, but with me, he was vulnerable,” Obah said. “He talked to me, and I talked to him and was able to transfer him to a school psychologist who could help. For me, that was a powerful moment, a connection because he was a Black student, and I am a Black teacher.”

The toll on Black teachers Deyango Harris, who teaches special education at Pleasant Hill’s College Park High School, has felt the weight of being the only Black teacher at his school. He was also the only Black teacher at the school he worked at previously.

Harris said that on multiple occasions he felt his concerns weren’t taken seriously and that he was treated unfairly because of his race. He said a series of incidents led him to file a discrimination complaint with the school’s human resources department. One issue was that he was the only teacher in his department who had to constantly move between classrooms, which Harris — who has been teaching for more than a decade — said is typically reserved for rookie teachers.

Adam Clark, superintendent of Mt. Diablo Unified School District — which encompasses College Park High — said via email that he and the district’s governing board are “committed to ensuring that all students, families and staff members feel safe and welcomed.” Clark would not comment on Harris’s situation.

“We take reports of discrimination seriously and follow board policies in all investigations,” Clark said.

If school administrators want to retain Black teachers, Har-

ris said, they need to get serious about providing mental health support. And they need to understand the microaggressions they endure on a regular basis.

“They don’t realize the mental toll it takes on a Black educator, day in and day out, in a primarily white institution,” Harris said.

One of LA Unified’s focuses in retaining Black teachers is addressing what’s known as the “invisible tax” on Black male teachers, a concept former U.S. Education Secretary John King wrote about in the Washington Post in 2016. The invisible tax describes how Black teachers are subjected to stereotypes by non-Black co-workers, such as being assigned to handle disciplinary issues with Black students, or the assumption they want to be involved in athletics.

The district is offering professional development opportunities to principals to address this issue at their campuses and is holding focus groups for teachers to talk about their experiences and share suggestions with district administrators.

Harris said he’s committed to staying at the school in part because of his work with the school’s Black student union.

He leads the student club, which is composed of about 60 students of different races.

Harris keeps his classroom open during lunch for the club, plays music and allows students to filter in and out. Some Black students tell him that he’s the only adult they feel comfortable turning to, Harris said. The students also tell him that some feel racial aggressions, hear the Nword used on campus, and feel the incidents aren’t being disciplined appropriately.

“If I could be the African American male those students can look up to or look to for some cultural relevance, somebody who gets them, then I’m glad to do it. It’s not a begrudging kind of pressure, it’s a good pressure,” Harris said. “If it wasn’t for them, I would be gone already.”

Under State Pressure, School District Rushes to Close Schools Serving Black and Latino Students

By Ken Epstein

The Oakland school board majority is rushing to close schools and slash tens of millions of dollars from its budget to meet the insistent demands of the State of California, acting through L. Karen Monroe of Alameda County Office of Education and the state-funded Fiscal Crisis Management and Assistance Team (FCMAT).

The list of 14 schools that face merger, consolidation or closure was confirmed by the OUSD spokesperson, who said the list was not final and could be modified and was not meant to be distributed until Friday or Saturday, Jan. 30.

Bypassing any attempts at community or school site engagement, the board plans to discuss the closures at a Zoom Board of Education meeting on Monday, Jan. 31, which was the deadline imposed on the district by L. K. Monroe of the Alameda County Office of Schools, to adopt the state’s draconian cuts.

The final vote on school closures is scheduled for a special

board meeting in less than two weeks, on Tuesday, Feb. 8. The schools on the final list would be closed at the end of this school year.

The schools on the district’s draft list for possible closure or merger as of Tuesday are: Prescott, Brookfield, Carl Munck, Parker, Grass Valley, La Escuelita, Westlake, Bunche, Street Academy, Rudsdale, Community Day, Hillcrest (grades 6-8), Highland/RISE (merger).

The school board voted in October to end its policy of permanently closing schools every year.

Within two weeks, the district received a letter from County Supt. Monroe saying OUSD was not a “Going Concern” and demanding closure of schools and $90 million in budget cuts by Jan. 31. Voting unanimously, the board opposed Monroe’s decision and appealed it to State Supt. of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond.

Thurmond, however, denied

their appeal.

At that point, the board was ready to give in. Led by Boardmembers Gary Yee and Shanthi Gonzales, the board then voted 5-2 to follow the directives that they had received from Monroe and FCMAT, to start closing schools again.

Boardmembers VanCedric Williams and Mike Hutchinson voted against closing the schools.

A Jan. 4 letter from FCMAT to the district underscored what was expected of the district by the state, including: “Affirmative board action to continue planning for, and timely implementation of, a school and facility closure and consolidation plan that supports the sale or lease of surplus property.”

Many school advocates view these school closures as a land grab of public property by privatizers. Others see this is a way to force Black and Latino families out of Oakland, making education inaccessible for them by closing the schools in the neighborhoods where they live.

Clock of Justice Moves Slowly

By Rev. Ray Williams

For the many mothers who have lost a child to street violence, justice moves at a snail’s pace.

The savage snatching of their sons and daughters has much of the same horror of an unsolved kidnapping: this is the anguish that parents like Carol Jones experience every day.

Every gunshot heard in the neighborhood; every siren wailing past their window; the telephone ringing at an awkward hour — all combine to create anxiety as these wounded women await that word of closure, that the “killer has been caught.”

gone now nearly four years, and police and investigating authorities do not appear to be any closer to solving the brutal crime than they were on Feb. 3, 2018.

On that day, Scott was ripped from his mother’s embrace as she hurriedly tried to drive his bullet-ridden body to Oakland’s Children’s Hospital, holding on to a thread of life.

Town Hall Meeting Seeks to Stop Schools Takeover Continued from page 1

The closing of these schools is being implemented by the Oakland school board majority under pressure from L. Karen Monroe of the Alameda County Office of Education and the Fiscal Crisis Management and Assistance Team (FCMAT) on behalf of the state.

Speakers at the town hall included OEA President Keith Brown; Kampala Taiz-Rancifer; Dr. Kimberly Mayfield, vice president of External Affairs for Holy Names University; School Board Member Mike Hutchinson; Post Publisher Paul Cobb; and retired ILWU leader Clarence Thomas, who has written a new book (available at www.MillionWorkerMarch.com).

Another speaker was Alysse Castro, candidate for Superintendent of Alameda County Schools and currently executive director of San Francisco County Schools and a former teacher and principal.

Castro has just received the

sole endorsement of the California Teachers Association, officially shifting support from the incumbent L. Karen Monroe, whom they endorsed previously.

In his remarks, Brown spoke against the threats of school closings and state takeover issued by Monroe, who threatened that FCMAT would be placed in charge of the school district if the school board did not immediately carry out cuts and closures.

Under pressure, board members had voted 5-2 to begin closing schools this year rather than taking on a fight to defend Oakland’s public schools.

“Oakland students deserve better,” Brown said after the meeting. “It is unacceptable that five school board directors will make the decision to permanently close neighborhood schools at this time.

“In November of 2020, Oakland voters rejected an agenda of closing schools,” he

said. “Oakland families want robust neighborhood community schools that supports the health and safety of our students. This must be the work of our school board.”

Clarence Thomas, who described himself as a retired third-generation ILWU Local 10 member and a labor and community activist, defended public education and discussed the need to fight against the concerted attempt to privatize Oakland schools and city property and drive working people out of the city.

“The actions of the Alameda County Office of Education (ACOE), demanding the closing (of as many as) 20 community schools and a $90 million cut in the budget of OUSD, is nothing more than an act of extortion, plain and simple,” he said. “More importantly, it is an attack on the democracy of OUSD’s School Board and the community that supports its decision to not close...schools.

“These actions on the part

of the ACOE only serve to undermine local school autonomy and the interests of those that will benefit from the dismantling of public education!

OUSD has experienced the intervention and influence of privatization/corporatization of its schools through such billionaires as Eli Broad, and Bill and Melinda Gates.”

“This attack on our local school district is taking place while democratic Governor Gavin Newsom and State Superintendent of Instruction Tony Thurmond are in power!

“It is not a coincidence that the democratically elected officials such as former Assemblyman Rob Bonta (current attorney general, State of California) and State Senator Nancy Skinner, both facilitated the privatization of the Port of Oakland’s Howard Terminal for right-wing billionaire John Fisher, a major funder and supporter of charter schools,” Thomas said.
