Board of Supervisors Balks at Demands to Help Fund A’s Waterfront Project By Post Staff

The Alameda County Board of Supervisors are balking as they face pressure to adopt the Oakland A’s plan to build a ballpark on the Oakland waterfront, saying they are not yet willing to contribute the funds the team says are needed to make the massive real estate development a reality. With almost no notice and little information, the supervisors at their meeting on Tuesday were asked to help pay for the plan under pressure from John Fisher’s A’s team and the team’s supporters, including Mayor Libby Schaaf and city staff. Supervisors said they were not willing to schedule a vote until September on the “request that the county support the idea of forming a tax district to finance the infrastructure needed” for the project, according to the East Bay Times article on the meeting. The A’s and the city want the Board of Supervisors to approve the plan before the end of July. “The county really shouldn’t be held over the barrel,” said Board President Keith Carson, quoted in the SF. Chronicle. The A’s say the tax district that would cover infrastructure costs such as sidewalks, utilities and soil cleanup at the city-within-a-city that they want to build.

Pastors of Oakland, Oakland Police Expanding Community Chaplaincy Program By Post Staff

In preparation for building up the Community Chaplaincy Program with the Oakland Police Department (OPD), the Pastors of Oakland (POC) is looking for potential chaplains to serve citizens in the worst of times. According to Phyllis Scott, pastor of Tree of Life Empowerment Ministries and current president of Pastors of Oakland, OPD Chief LeRonne Armstrong is looking for at least 30 men and women to accompany officers to help victims of crime and their families who are in crisis. The crises can range from homicide to sexual assault, to domestic violence, to car accidents and more. Community Chaplains must have the ability to serve believers and non-believers alike and “must advocate for healing regardless of faith,” Scott said. The program is seeking clergy with cultural competency to meet the needs of Oakland citizens who are Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Taoist – especially in Asian, Latino and

African American communities. Not all Community Chaplains must have a religious affiliation. Professionals like teachers, caregivers and healers who have several years working in community may also serve. Though Scott feels that some cultural values can be taught in the training, it’s not so easy to teach a language, and so bilingual chaplains will also be in

demand. “We are looking for people who have heart for Oakland,” she said. Lt. Aaron Smith, who is assisting Chief Armstrong in expanding the program, agrees. Currently, there are 15-25 chaplains on call but “not all are willing to go where emotions are running high,” he said. Continued on Page 8

ditional details of its effort at a news conference at 11:00 a.m. Friday at a site to be determined. “I am pleased that there is such great interest in doing an important development at the Oakland Coliseum that will provide jobs, revenue and community positivity,” Kaplan said. “My goal is to help this process move forward before the summer recess.” Kaplan said the group has the backing of more than 30 community groups of faithbased institutions, labor organizations, civic leaders, and job development organizations. She did not name the groups.

Turner Family Patriarch Turns 100, Passes the Torch By Christy Price

A poem written for Douglas “Buster” Turner’s 100th birthday is entitled “My Eyes Have Seen a Lot of Things.” After 100 years on Earth, that is an understatement. Turner’s life began on May 22, 1921, in Ansley, La., as the son of Neda and John Turner.

Turner had a full childhood surrounded by his 13 siblings in Morton, Miss., where they were raised. Turner’s parents instilled in their children a sense of honor and pride by teaching them to be accountable and take responsibility for their actions while still giving them the autonomy Continued on Page 8

Naismith Hall of Fame Basketball Legend Nancy Lieberman Supports WNBA Team for Oakland By Post Staff

Nancy Lieberman, one of the most celebrated female basketball players over the last decades, is supporting the push to bring a WNBA (Women’s National Basketball Association) franchise to Oakland. The former player-coach and Gary Reeves, her business advocate, have talked with Vice Mayor Rebecca Kaplan and members of the African American Sports Entertainment Group since March. Reeves said, “In the early stages of the league’s development she was one of the most successful WNBA executives with the Detroit Shock. She impressively operated the business side of the team into the ‘black’ and drove a fearless community outreach program. This resulted in the team having one of the largest fan bases in a large, urban-based WNBA city.” Lieberman has spoken at length to Kaplan about possibly joining a female-led and Black-equity ownership group

C h a r l e s “Buddy” Bolden (1867–1831) is one of the central figures in New Orleans music, yet his place in the history of jazz remains tenuous. His name may mean nothing to a casual jazz listener but his legacy, a collage of truth, whispers and some rumors, lives on. Much of what is known of Bolden comes from oral accounts passed down decades after his death. Records about his life remain scarce. It was often said that he cut hair at a barber shop in New Orleans; jumped from a hot air balloon over Lincoln Park and played his coronet on the way down; and moonlighted as editor of a scandal sheet called The Cricket. What music scholars do know is that Bolden grew up in the New Orleans’ neighborhood now known as Central City. It’s likely that there, from childhood, he was constantly exposed to brass bands parading through the streets. He probably attended Fisk School and may have even graduated. During this time, he began studying the coronet. Bolden would later become a working musician known for his loud sound and improvisational skills. He played in parades, at picnics, parks and union halls and was a favorite at the honky-tonks. Yet this talented pioneering jazz musician had schizophrenia. He was unable to properly read music and had impaired motor function. He only improvised on his coronet, playing the ragtime music popular from the 1890s to the 1920s. It

According to newspaper reports, Bolden, in a fit of psychosis, was convinced he was being drugged or poisoned. He attacked his caregiver, who was either his mother or his mother-in-law.

“He was booked on a charge of being insane, and alcohol abuse was cited as the reason for his insanity.” How long Bolden was jailed is unknown. His life, however, would deteriorate after the incident. He became erratic and unreliable; he eventually quit playing his coronet. His final

public performance was during a parade on Labor Day 1906. He dropped out of the festivities before the finished. Two more arrests followed the next year. After the third on March 13, 1907, Bolden was committed to the State Insane Asylum in Jackson, La. It was there that he would spend the rest of his life. By the time New Orleans music was dubbed jazz (1918) Bolden had been in the mental asylum for more than a decade. He was a distant memory. It is suggested that Bolden was a byproduct of his time and circumstances. He was an improviser; there was no trace of written music left. He performed at the beginning of the age of recorded music and silent film, so there are no known video or audio traces of him. So far, only one photograph of him has been discovered. Bolden died in obscurity. He was buried in Holt Cemetery in New Orleans, but the location is unknown.

State Could Create 1 Million New Jobs As It Transitions To Clean Economy By Keith Burbank, Bay City News

As California’s economy reopens, numerous labor union representatives at a news conference on June 10 demanded a safe and equitable transition to a green economy for workers. Union members made their demands virtually at the conference, also sharing their thoughts on a new related report on California jobs by researchers at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. The research, led by economics professor Robert Pollin, says California can create 1 million new jobs a year through 2030 by investing in energy efficiency, clean renewable energy, manufacturing/infrastructure and land restoration/ agriculture. “Our study shows how to get there,” he said. As California transitions to a greener economy, new jobs can be created while other jobs will be lost. The report says $76 billion is needed to create 416,000

jobs in energy efficiency and clean renewable energy while $62 billion is needed to create 626,000 jobs in manufacturing/ infrastructure and land restoration/agriculture. Pollin said about 112,000 workers are employed in Cali-

fornia’s fossil fuel and bioenergy industries and about 58,000 are expected to lose their jobs by 2030 as those two industries contract and coal use ends. The damage may be most severe in Kern, Contra Costa, and Los Angeles counties, where 50% of all fossil fuel job losses will occur as the state’s fossil fuel industry contracts, according to the study. But about 350,000 jobs a year can be created with the investments that Pollin’s team suggests. About 320,000 of those will be created in Los Angeles County. Some of the money from the $138 billion to be invested would would help those out of work train and relocate, if needed, to new jobs, according to the report. About half or $70 billion of the total investment would come from public coffers while the other half would come from private investors. To read the full story, go to postnewsgroup.com

California Unemployment System Backlogged With Over 200,000 Claims By Quinci LeGardye California Black Media

California have reopened on June 15, but for many unemployed workers, the economic struggles caused by the COVID-19 pandemic is nowhere near ending. Many Californians are still waiting for the state’s Employment Development Department (EDD) to clear their backlog of claims, with the department’s data page showing over 221,000 claims are pending past 21 days as of June 12. On May 28, Assemblymember Mike A. Gipson (D-Carson) hosted a press conference featuring constituents from his district who are seeking immediate help from EDD. Three constituents spoke about their struggles while trying to get their unemployment benefits. They experienced extremely long wait times while calling EDD and faced difficulties trying to verify their identity or correct claim amounts with the department. The difficulties with EDD that the speakers expressed in their stories mirrored complaints the department’s service and call centers have been reporting since the pandemic began last year. Roneisha Williams, a Gipson constituent, is waiting on an appeal after receiving an incorrect benefit amount. She described her experience communicating with EDD representatives over the phone as “confusing.” She said that she received conflicting information from EDD, and representatives asked her for a different set of documents each time she called.

“When you call and speak with someone regarding the solution, you’re not given the same information. You can call one representative, and they’ll tell you to submit a documentation. You submit that documentation. You call to confirm that it has been received. The other representative will tell you that not only you weren’t supposed to submit that documentation, but really you need to go to this step, and we need to see this documentation.” Williams also spoke about her difficulties going through the identity verification process with the third-party company ID.me. EDD launched the ID.me verification process in October 2020 as part of an effort to crack down on fraud. The department also suspended 1.4 million accounts last December and made some claimants verify their identities. Since then, unemployed Californians directed to ID.me have faced delays and technical issues. Willams also expressed concern for less technologically-savvy claimants who may have to use ID.me. “Having to contact a third party to qualify for your unemployment benefits is very stressful, especially when

they do not have any human contact customer service available. With the ID.me verification, everything is done through your phone. So that in itself is very isolating. I know how to work technology, but what about the constituents who aren’t familiar with it. What about the constituents who don’t have a high-powered or accurate camera on their phone to send a copy of their ID?” Williams said. Roger Lozoya, a pipeline welder who also lives in Gipson’s district, lost his job five months ago and has had no income since. He said his identity was stolen and used to receive EDD benefits. So, when he tried to get benefits, the EDD told him that he owed them money. Lozoya said, “I’m a welder, and I’m blessed to have a career that I worked hard to get. I pay a lot of taxes, and I pay into EDD. The only thing they constantly do to me is call me a liar -- that I’m stealing from them. They told me I owe them $69,000. How do I owe $69,000? At the time they were saying that I was claiming it, I was working.”

By Bo Tefu California Black Media

California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta announced last week that the state has appealed a federal court’s decision that declared California’s ban on assault weapons unconstitutional. Several state officials, including San Francisco Mayor London Breed, also disagreed with the court’s ruling during a press conference held at the Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital. The state partnered with a number of gun control advocate groups for the event, including the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence and the Giffords Law Center. “We can agree that the decision was disappointing,” said Bonta. “In many ways, the opinion was disturbing and troubling and a big concern, but we cannot be, and we are not, deterred by this,” he said. Federal Judge Roger Thomas Benitez presided over the decision in Miller v. Bonta. The case was heard at the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. Bonta said his office has appealed the decision, requesting that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit leave the current laws in effect for 30 days. California’s gun laws are some of the strictest in the nation under the Roberti–Roos Assault Weapons Control Act of 1989 (AWCA), which bans the use of specific models of firearms classified as assault weapons. In the pending court case, Miller v. Bonta, James Miller, a lawyer who serves as a board

member of the San Diego County Gun Owners, advocated for the use of the AR15 rifle. However, the semiautomatic rifle with certain features is an illegal assault weapon, according to California gun laws. Miller argued that AR-15 rifles can be used for selfdefense under the second amendment. Miller, who also serves on the Cajon Valley School Board, initially challenged former Attorney General Xavier Becerra on California’s criminalization of AR-15 rifles in April this year. The ongoing case, which Bonta inherited, sparked heated debates about gun laws in the wake of increasing gun violence and mass shootings. Breed recalled her personal experience with gun violence growing up in the Bay Area. “We’re here at San Francisco General Hospital. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been here after a friend that I grew up with was shot,” she said. Breed was joined by Mattie Scott who lost her son to gun violence. The mayor grew

up with Scott’s son who was killed in 1996 at a graduation party in San Francisco. “We don’t want to see another person, another child lost to gun violence in this city, in this state, in this country,” said Breed. “We’ve had a law on the books in the state for over 30 years, and a judge decides that our law is no longer constitutional. That law has saved countless numbers of lives,” she said. According to Statista Research Department, California had a total of 22 mass shootings between 1982 and 2021. In the court decision, Benitez compared the effectiveness of an AR-15 rifle to a Swiss Army Knife. Based on the federal court’s ruling, the semiautomatic machine gun is, “Good for both home and battle,” said Benitez. “Like the Swiss Army Knife, the popular AR-15 rifle is a perfect combination of home defense weapon and homeland defense equipment,” the federal judge said in favor of Miller.

Juneteenth: Our Independence Day By Kiki June 19, or Juneteenth, is independence day for many Americans of African descent. Also known as Emancipation Day or Freedom Day, it commemorates the end of slavery, a seminal event in Black history. President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation took effect on Jan. 1, 1863, but was read to slaves in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865, more than two years later. There are several different accounts of why the news of freedom took so long to arrive. One story has it that slaves were intentionally kept ignorant about their freedom in order to allow crops to continue being harvested. Another has a messenger traveling by mule to deliver the news, and it simply took more than two years to arrive from Washington, D.C., to Texas. Yet another story has the messenger being murdered before he could deliver the message. No matter the origin of Juneteenth, the end of slavery is definitely worth celebrating. But while much has happened in the 158 years since slavery officially ended, its legacies still remain in the form of disparate salaries, educational levels and incarceration rates. Juneteenth, which is now observed in 48 states (North Dakota and Hawaii do not observe) and the District of Columbia, is a time to take stock of our progress — and of the work that remains. Last year, during the pandemic our current vice president and former senator,

Free Program on Mental Illness and Substance Disorder By Margot Dashiell

Graphic courtesy istock. Kamala Harris, said: “[m]y message on this Juneteenth: may we honor those who suffered, died and survived the crushing reality of slavery by looking to the future.” Twelve years ago, President Barack Obama said: “African Americans helped to build our nation brick by brick and have contributed to her growth in every way, even when rights

and liberties were denied to them.” We’re still building it. In 2021, as our state opens up post-pandemic and we deal with racial reckoning as we never have before #BlackLivesMatter is becoming a reality. This year is truly our Independence Day. Happy Juneteenth.

Believing that information is one of the most important needs of family people caring for those with mental illness, the African American Family Outreach Project (AAFOP) is offering its 3rd free virtual meeting this year. On Saturday, June 26, from 9:45a.m.-2 p.m., Dr. Aaron Chapman, medical director of Alameda County Behavioral Health, and Aminata Fielder, LMFT, clinical director of a woman’s residential substance abuse program, will discuss mental illness and substance abuse. They will provide ample time to hear audience questions and concerns. Fearing embarrassment, many family members fail to share information about loved ones living with seri-

ous mental illness and or substance abuse. Often when we do disclose this reality, we are surprised at how frequently we learn that other families have similar stories. Treatment and family support are often complicated by this common reality: at least 50% of those living with serious mental illness also engage in substance abuse. It’s commonly understood that the troubling symptoms of serious men-

tal illness frequently lead people to try managing them with alcohol, marijuana, cocaine or other street drugs. An increasing number of programs in Alameda County are trying to address the treatment needs of people with both problems simultaneously. The African American Family Outreach Project is a program of the Mental Health Association of Alameda County and is made possible by Mental Health Services Act funds from Alameda County Behavioral Health. The project was endorsed by the African American Steering Committee for Health and Wellness. To register for the AAFOP event, call 510-697-8533 or e-mail AAFOPaafop@ mhaac.org.

Assembly Candidates Confront the Issues: Howard Terminal , Local Control of Schools, Reparations By Ken Epstein Candidates for State Assembly responded to pointed questions on some of the critical issues facing Oakland schools and the community – including displacement, housing, reparations, public safety and returning full local control to the public schools – at a recent Education Candidate Forum on Zoom hosted by the School of Education at Holy Names University in Oakland, in partnership with the Oakland Post Community Assembly. The candidates are running to represent Oakland, Alameda and Leandro in a June 29 special election for California State Assembly District #18, a seat that was previously held by Rob Bonta, who was recently appointed as California Attorney General. Candidates attending the forum were James Aguilar, Victor Aguilar, Mia Bonta, Joel Britton, Janani Ramachandran, and Malia Vella.

The event was hosted by Dr. Kimberly Mayfield, dean of the School of Education at Holy Names, who emphasized the importance of these issues for the city’s future. “We have just come through a moral and political crisis (in this country) around racism and the government’s role in maintaining this system. We are looking for a new approach, and this is the lens we will be using today for this education forum,” said Dr. Mayfield. Also welcoming the candidates and the public to event were Oakland Post publisher Paul Cobb and his wife Gay

Mia Bonta

Plair Cobb, who highlighted their intense interest in schools and education. Paul Cobb is a former member of the Oakland Board of Education, and Gay Cobb served for many years on the Alameda County Board of Education. The first question to candidates was whether they would oppose the big money coalition of politicians and powerful interests behind Oakland A’s owner John Fisher’s stadium and massive downtown real estate project at Howard Terminal. Opponents of the project argue that the A’s proposal is

vaguely worded and would come at a high cost to Oakland taxpayers, who would foot the bill for decades. They say the development would create a city-within-a-city, like Piedmont, that would displace local residents and likely wreck the Port of Oakland and its decent-paying longshore jobs, turning the city’s waterfront and downtown into a tourist attraction like Pier 39 in San Francisco. Of the three candidates who are considered to be the top contenders., only Janani Ramachandran was strongly opposed to Fisher’s deal. Ma-

Urban Farm in East Oakland Teaches Youth Healthy Living, Strengthens Community Ties By Christy Price

Hidden within a dirty, violent, densely populated urban food desert stands an oasis for the fearful parents and bored youth of East Oakland. Alarmed by Oakland’s high school dropout rate and FBI ranking as the 6th most dangerous city in the U.S, Oakland mother and Navy veteran Kelly Carlisle decided to expand her urban farming from her balcony to a bigger plot of land. There she could fulfill her desire to teach children, youth and even adults about farming, food and nutrition using her skills as a Master Gardener. The added benefit would be a community whose ties became stronger. Carlisle was connected to Tassafaronga Recreation Center in East Oakland whose leadership wanted to create a farm on the land behind the center and so Acta Non Verba: Youth Urban Farm Project (ANV) was born. Located at 1001 83rd Ave.,

Acta Non Verba Facebook photo. it is a beautiful, positive space and experience for so many families in this area who are oftentimes cut off from nature and too fearful to allow their children to play outside. Families from the surrounding neighborhoods and greater community can benefit from a myriad of programs that the organization offers such as childcare, camping, instruction on farming, cooking and nutrition. The mission of (ANV) cannot be better summarized than by the people who have dedicated their lives to this cause,

and according to their website, it is: “Acta Non Verba: Youth Urban Farm Project (ANV) elevates life in Oakland and beyond by challenging oppressive dynamics and environments through urban farming. Founded and led mainly by women of color from the surrounding neighborhood and larger community, ANV creates a safe and creative outdoor space for children, youth, and families in East Oakland, CA. ANV engages and strengthens young people’s understanding of nutrition, food produc-

Expanding Community Chaplaincy Program Continued from page 1

Once the details are hammered out, dates will be set for training, Scott said, who was herself certified to do this work in 2009. The training, six weekly sessions, will include instruction by specialists familiar with the emotional states of people who are in shock because of a homicide, domestic violence, sexual assault, and sex trafficking “without interfering with law enforcement,” Scott said. Typical needs are help with planning a vigil, getting the body of a victim out of the morgue, finding a church or a place to hold a funeral that isn’t

tion, and healthy living as well as strengthens their ties to the community.” This program begins with the youth at the planning stage, plotting the land, planting the seeds, cultivating the produce, and ends with the youth marketing it to customers and making the sales. The children get to experience every part of the process of farm-to-table nutrition, teaching them valuable skills and lessons that will help them as they grow into adulthood. Over the years ANV has taught hundreds of children these life skills which help make community ties with the help of sponsors, donors and volunteers. Visit the ANV website if you are interested in signing your children up for camp, childcare or any of the other programs offered. If you are looking for a worthy organization to offer your time and/or money, please consider an investment in our urban youth through Acta Non Verba.

too expensive. Once those issues are dealt with, the family can freely grieve, and then they can begin to heal. Scott cited an instance where a boy was shot to death, and the family and community, fearing reprisal, were essentially afraid to grieve openly. That’s where the chaplaincy came in, joining forces with OPD so the young man was funeralized safely, Scott said. OPD and Pastors of Oakland want chaplains who are located in all parts of the city, roughly East Oakland, West Oakland and North Oakland. Once contacted by OPD, a ‘beat’ cap-

tain will call on the chaplain or chaplains in that area who have agreed to be available day or night. Besides the city streets, Scott would like to see Community Chaplains at Highland Hospital, which is where many trauma victims are treated and where further violence against victims can be perpetrated as when gang members try to kill someone who survived an attack. Scott said she is bracing for an escalation in violence, not just because it’s almost summer, the most dangerous season of the year, but because homi-

cides were already alarmingly high so far this year, despite the pandemic. Last month, there were four homicides in one week: two 17-year-old boys were shot to death, and the next day two teenaged girls died when a party bus was shot up by more than one assailant as it traveled from the freeway and ended up at 73rd and MacArthur – just a few blocks from Scott’s home. She wished she could haven there. For those interested in learning more about the Community Chaplains, please call Pastors of Oakland at 510-688-7437.

ious Negro League Baseball teams through Mississippi, Texas, Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Georgia. Turner moved to Oakland in 1949 with the rest of the family joining him about a year later. A huge fan of the L.A. Dodgers, Turner was invited to try out for the Dodgers Minor System in the early1950s and the ambidextrous Turner once pitched a double header left-handed in the first game and right-handed in the second. The time spent on the road with Coreene, who passed away in 2015, created a bond that lasted 75 years and produced seven children. The Turners would raise Alber-

tine, Eddie, Fred, Johnny, Michael, Mary, and Sherrie with the same family values that Turner had been raised with. Their door was always open to the neighborhood children and the family never met a stranger. Douglas Turner’s legacy is an open, helping hand, one of caring and sharing. To provide for his family, both close and extended, Turner became a union journeyman machinist. Turner employed many workers at his Mohawk Gas Station before the brand changed hands. When his budget kept him from buying a much needed truck, Turner’s innovation and imagination led him to

repurpose a car into a truck, well before the El Camino made its debut. As Mr. Turner turns 100 years old and dementia confuses time and memories for him; he often revisits the past. His son becomes his brother, and he is once again a young man. Though the memories are fading for him, the stories of his epic journeys will not end: Turner’s children will carry on the Turner legacy of accountability, responsibility, integrity, and autonomy. The Turner family is the product of all the hard work that Turner did in making a strong family unit filled with the wonderful tales they saw through their father’s eyes.

After an honorable discharge from the military, Turner utilized the benefits being a veteran offered him through the GI Bill. Turner married Coreene in 1940 and they took up a nomadic lifestyle in the Deep South during the Jim Crow era.

Kaplan cited the June 2021 cover story of the Sports Illustrated magazine as evidence of the emergence and growth of the WNBA and its potential opportunities to exercise diversity, gender equality and minority ownership, especially for Blacks.

Since Lieberman’s first interview and podcast with the Post, many Oakland-based groups have expressed interest in bringing a WNBA team to Oakland. Reeves said the initiatives taken by Lieberman and Kaplan should be supported and embraced by the Black community. Gay Plair Cobb, CEO Emerita of the PIC (Partners In Careers), said “It’s past time for Black women to also participate as co-owners with a diverse group of women investors in major sports franchises.

Biden’s “Plan” to Address the Racial Wealth Gap Won’t Cut It. Only Reparations Can Do That By Brandon Patterson On June 1, the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Massacre, President Joe Biden announced a plan to support Black homeownership and Black-owned businesses, which he said was aimed at closing the racial wealth gap between Black people and white people. The plan received praise from those who celebrated Biden’s apparent attempt to address the gap, which his administration has identified as a key policy goal. The plan included steps like establishing a federal effort to address inequality in home appraisals and using government authority to boost support for Black-owned businesses, including through business grants. These are all great steps worth taking, but we shouldn’t pretend like they will do anything to meaningfully narrow the racial wealth gap. Only reparations can do that. According to a recent New York Times piece by Duke University economist William Darity, the wealth gap between Black and white Americans ranges from somewhere between nearly $54,700 a person and $280,300 a person. Using the larger estimate, which Darity argues is more appropriate, the total racial wealth gap amounts to $11.2 trillion--“a figure that implies that incremental measures will not be sufficient” to close it, he wrote. Another 2016 study from

Opinion

the Institute for Policy Studies and the Corporation for Enterprise Development suggests that white households are worth nearly 20 times more than Black households on average, and that it would take 228 years for Black folks to catch up. That’s assuming white people’s collective wealth doesn’t increase at all during that time. And that was before our households and businesses took the devastating economic hit of the COVID-19 pandemic. Addressing discrimination in homeownership and supporting Black entrepreneurship are worthwhile policy endeavors. But we should be honest about what they represent in the grand scheme of things: At best, they are marginal steps in the right direction. And that’s not going to cut it. If we are serious about addressing the racial wealth gap, then we must get serious about reparations. There’s no way around it. The numbers speak for themselves. If our elected officials aren’t prepared to go that route, fine -- but we should stop letting them pretend like they are serious about the racial wealth gap. A gap created out of centuries of stolen labor, stolen land, and stolen wealth and resources can’t be addressed by a new housing policy or small business grant program. During the 2020 campaign, then-candidate Biden said he supported H.R. 40, a bill that would commission a congres-

Karl Mill

By Charla Montgomery

Join OCCUR for their upcoming workshop in their faith-based leadership series, as they continue to explore nonprofit law and how it impacts community organization. On Thursday, June 24, from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. the FAITHS Program, “A Model Built on Faith” (AMBOF), will hold a workshop on “Key Principles of Nonprofit Law: Understanding Annual Reporting, Board Legal Responsibilities and Human Resources.” This workshop will focus on answering questions related to legally starting a nonprofit and provide an overview of troubleshooting concerns that may arise during the process. The session will also explore the pros and cons of being a nonprofit vs. a for-profit business, fiscal sponsorship, incorporating and structuring the nonprofit, state and federal reporting and regulation and federal tax rules applicable to 501(c)(3) organizations. The workshop will be facilitated by Karl Mill of Adler & Colvin and Asha B. Wilkerson, Esq., MBA of the Wilkerson Law Office. RSVP by visiting the website www.amodelbuiltonfaith.org, email info@occurnow.org or by calling OCCUR at (510) 839-2440. The training is recommended for faith-based organizations as well as nonprofit leaders. Mill’s practice focuses on the representation of a wide variety of nonprofit and tax-

Thursday, Sept. 23 • “One Voice - 2021 FAITHS Leadership Forum & Year End Celebration Reception.” Thursday, Oct. 28 Charla Montgomery is the managing director of OCCUR.

THE POST, June 16-22, 2021, Page 11

Telehealth Increases Access to Care for Medi-Cal Patients – Let’s Keep It Access to care is a complex issue, but sometimes it’s as simple as geography. Taking an hours-long bus ride across town to visit the doctor isn’t practical for most people. Add lost wages, a lack of childcare, and the fact that you don’t feel good, and it’s downright impossible. Solutions available in employer-based health insurance for years, like virtual care through an app or over the telephone, haven’t been an option for people on MediCal. Until the pandemic. When the federal and state governments declared an emergency last Spring, federally qualified health centers like WellSpace Health were able to provide care virtually via telephone and video, a practice that had been prohibited previously. Virtual care is wildly successful. Over the past two weeks, 5,015 patients accessed care remotely rather than visiting health centers. Half of primary care visits and 85% of behavioral health

visits were virtual. According to a statewide survey of community health centers, which serve 1 in 5 Californians, there has been a 75% decrease in no-show rates since the implementation of telehealth. A study conducted by the California Pan-Ethnic Health Network reported a significant number of patients from communities of color engaging in telehealth and having a high level of patient satisfaction. As an internal medicine doctor and the chief medical officer WellSpace Health, I think it makes sense. Technology has given us the ability to conduct a modern day “house call.” We can go to the patient and break down significant barriers to care. If the patient requires a hands-on assessment or treatment, we can take that step. But frequently, hands-on care is not necessary. Our ability to provide virtual care under the emergency order will expire soon. Permanent authorization will require action by the Legislature and the governor through the

budget process. Assembly Bill (AB) 32 by Assemblymember Cecilia Aguiar-Curry (D- Winters) provides the template for action. In this budget cycle, the governor must take advantage of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to address inequality in our health care delivery system. By adopting the provisions of AB 32 into the FY21-22 final budget, it will guarantee that all Medi-Cal beneficiaries – regardless of where they seek care – can use all telehealth modalities, including telephonic care, indefinitely. Telehealth may not make for a good Norman Rockwell painting, but it does make for good medicine. It’s an improvement, a step forward that helps us get healthier and close gaps in care. It even brings back the house call. Dr. Janine Bera is chief medical officer of WellSpace Health and chair of the California Primary Care Association Telehealth Clinical Task Force.

Caroline Beteta, the pandemic erased more than 55 percent of the state’s $145 billion per year tourism industry overnight. It will also take roughly four years for the tourism industry to return to 2019 levels, according to Beteta. “One of the key issues for us 70 40 40 3 10 25 75 to get back on track and50shorten this recovery curve is to encourage Californians to travel in California,” she said. “It’s 10.2 7.4 7.4 25 19 19 50 40 40 75 66 66 0000 like3.1a2.2 2.2 modern-day act of patriotism if we can spend those dollars here.” In San Francisco, the vacation package winners will

receive a five-night stay at the Hotel Nikko in Union Square, meals at La Mar, Jaranita, Wilder, Westwood and One Market and four tickets to a San Francisco Giants game at Oracle Park. All state residents age 18 and older who have received at 90 100 least one vaccine dose will be eligible for the vacation package drawings. Vaccinated residents are automatically entered 100 100 100 80 70 70 100 into the drawings. Information on the state’s vaccination incentives can be found at https://covid19. ca.gov/vax-for-the-win.

Opinion

By Dr. Janine Bera, Special to California Black Media

Nearly a century ago, a Norman Rockwell painting titled “Doctor and Doll” was published on the cover of the Saturday Evening Post, a popular American cultural magazine. It depicted an older gentleman wearing a suit, doctor bag at his feet, pressing a stethoscope to the chest of a little girl’s toy doll. A cluttered desk and worn chair sit atop a forgettable rug. It’s an old image of health care in America. A country doctor caring for his neighbors via a “house call.” Of course, we know it was not that simple. Healthcare was rudimentary compared to today’s standards – that is if you had access to care at all. Aver-

age life expectancy reflected that. If you were born white in 1929, you would be lucky to reach your sixties. If you were Black, you weren’t likely to reach your fifties. While things are far from perfect, at least they have improved. Healthy lifestyles and modern medicine have made living into your eighties com-

monplace. Significant racial disparities remain, but the gap is closing. And the number of people with health coverage has never been higher. But while Medi-Cal (the state sponsored coverage for people who have low-incomes) now covers nearly 14 million people, many still lack appropriate access to care.

EAST BAY SPECIAL ELECTION

Mia Bonta FO R A S S E M B LY

I’m excited to endorse Mia Bonta in the special election for the 18th Assembly District. Mia will bring a progressive, social, economic, and racial justice lens to our state legislature. She will stand up for communities that have been marginalized and underrepresented for far too long.
