Praygr was good for me in<br />
The New School Prayer"<br />
(This was written by a teen in<br />
Bagdad, Arizona.)<br />
Now, I sit me down in school, (<br />
where praying is against the rule,1<br />
for this great nation- - under God,<br />
finds mention of Him very odd. If<br />
scripture now the class recites. It<br />
violates the Bill of Rights, and anytime<br />
my head I bow. Our hair can be<br />
purple, orange or green, that's no<br />
offense; it's a freedom scene. The<br />
law is specific, the law is precise<br />
prayers spoken aloud are a serious<br />
vice. Bar praying in a public hall,<br />
might offend someone with no faith<br />
at all. In silence alone, we must<br />
meditate. God's name is prohibited<br />

sleeping, lying down, loving to<br />

dogs which can never have<br />
enough, and they ate shepherds<br />
by the state. We're allowed to cuss<br />
and dress like freaks, and pierce our<br />
noses, tongues and cheeks. They<br />

"judgment" docs not belong. We can<br />
get our birth control, study Witchcraft,<br />

But the Ten Commandments are not<br />
allowed. No word of God must<br />

About Uchenna and Joyce<br />
Uchenna & Joyce are a married<br />
Team from Houston, <strong>Texas</strong>,<br />
who were going through an<br />
extremely challenging period in<br />
their lives. Both worked for<br />
now-bankru- pt<br />
companies that experienced<br />
highly publicized accounting<br />
scandals: Uchenna worked for<br />
Enron and Joyce worked for<br />
WorldCom. Uchenna and Joyce's<br />
primary motivation for participating<br />
in the Race is to regain some<br />
of the closeness they've lost during<br />
these tryii.g times.<br />
Uchenna grew up in Los<br />
Angeles and now works as an<br />
energy broker in Houston.<br />
Uchenna and his wife have been<br />
through some challenging financial<br />
and emotional times s of<br />
late. After several failed atfffrnpts<br />
in-vit- ro<br />
to get pregnant, they tried<br />
fertilization, but it was<br />
unsuccessful. Uchenna describes<br />
himself as competitive and extroverted,<br />
and he enjoys basketball<br />
scuba diving and horseback<br />
rid-- ;<br />
ing.<br />
Joyce was born in Mississippi<br />
and raised in San Diego,<br />
Following her own'<br />
layoff from WorldCom, Joyce<br />

Black women's Health disparities put community at risk<br />
A Black Prois Exclusive<br />
By Klmafn Price<br />
A recent episode of the<br />
long-runni- ng television series<br />
"ER" included a story line<br />
about an African --American<br />
woman diagnosed with<br />
advanced breast cancer that was<br />
spreading to her bones. It was<br />
not the cancer that brought the<br />
woman to the hospital, she had<br />
injured herself falling down the<br />
stairs. The doctors happened to<br />
find the canfier while treating<br />
her injuries from the fall.<br />
The woman admitted that<br />
she hd felt the Sump in her<br />
breast two years earlier, but had<br />
not gone to the doctor She<br />
lacked health insurance, was<br />
distrustful of the health care<br />
system and didn't feel that sick.<br />
Even after being diagnosed, she<br />
initially refused treatment<br />
because of the time and money<br />
it would require.<br />
While this story is fictional,<br />
the situation is very real for<br />
many<br />
African-America- n<br />
women. It's often said that we<br />
are the glue that holds our communities<br />
together. If that's true,<br />
then our communities may be in<br />
Strange stories from the panhandle<br />

LAGO VISTA, <strong>Texas</strong> - Neil<br />
Greene's memories of youth begin<br />
at the tender age of 2, and the amazing<br />
detail and humor that flavor his<br />
poignant life story leap vith an<br />
energy all their own from the pages<br />
of his new memoir, Tlie Badgertots<br />
(now available through<br />
AuthorHouse).<br />
Greene begins with a com<br />
pelling account of the nomadic life<br />
he knew with his biological family<br />
before the age of 3. During the late<br />
1930s, the Depression had plunged<br />
most families into dark days, but<br />
Greene's stories of childhood brim<br />
with matter-of-fa-ct wit and grace.<br />
The things he did without, the<br />
unspoken etiquette of the time and<br />
the harsh reality of daily survival<br />
are expressed with the tenderness of<br />
one who has taken each life lesson<br />
to heart. In addition, lightheaded<br />
tales of giant tumbleweeds that<br />
Sometimes knocked an unsuspecting<br />
toddler off his feet and dust<br />
storms so dark they fooled the<br />
chickens into roosting too early<br />
entertain readers of all ages.<br />
M The Badgertots also details<br />
what it was like for foster children,<br />
as Greene shares how "the County"<br />
took him from his mother after his<br />
father left home. Separated from his<br />
"real mom" and his siblings, he<br />
lived with three different families,<br />
and Tlie Badgertots follows his<br />
experiences with each one. As readers<br />
trace the life of a young boy<br />
who constantly suffers from the<br />
threat of abandonment, they discover<br />
both the importance of stability<br />
in a child's life and the resilience of<br />
the human spirit at any age.<br />
Poetry ends The Badgertots<br />
with Greene's seasoned perspective<br />
on a range of topics, including a<br />
stirring tribute to all who have<br />

serious trouble.<br />
May 8-- 14 is National<br />
Womon's Health Care Weak,<br />
which reminds us to slop and<br />
think about our health. On nearly<br />
overy indicator, African-Amorica- n<br />
women have poorer<br />
health than white women. We<br />
arc not getting the care we<br />
need, and our health is suffering.<br />
Black women on average<br />
die five yearrf sooner than white<br />
women Over half of us between<br />
the ages of 45 and 64 have been<br />
diagnosed with high blood<br />
pressure, twice the rate for<br />
white women of the same age<br />
We're also twice as likely as<br />
white women to have diabetes.<br />
HIVAIDS has reached epidemic<br />
proportions in the<br />
African-America- n community,<br />
and our women are among the<br />
hardest' hit. Black women<br />
account for more than<br />
two-thir- ds<br />
of all new AIDS cases,<br />
and HIV is the leading cause of<br />
death for young black women.<br />
We are less likely than<br />
while women to get breast cancer,<br />
but more likely to die from<br />
it. Black women are also more<br />
likely than white women to die<br />
"Thanks to Our War Veterans."<br />
"This s written for readers of<br />
all ages," he writes. "It isn't politically<br />
correct. It is written in a vernacular<br />
you can understand." It is<br />
se candor and well-earne- d<br />
wisdom that makes Tlie<br />
Badgerjots so endearing to all read<br />
ers.<br />
Although he endured several<br />
transitions from one family to<br />
another, Greene writes that the loving<br />
acceptance he received from his<br />
"borrowed" parents helped him to<br />
overcome the cruel treatment o f<br />
others toward foster children. His<br />
poetry has been featured in several<br />
publications, but Tlie Badgertots is<br />

The health disparities we<br />

The Bush administration<br />
has made it very clear that our<br />

the HIVAIDS epidemic grows,<br />

THANKS FOR RUNNING<br />
FOR MAYOR! THIS N THAT<br />
wants a very good friend, VAN<br />
ASHLEY, who is serving as<br />
Mayor Pro Tern of the City of<br />
Littlefield, to know we want to<br />
thank him for standing tall and<br />
seeking the Mayor's Post of<br />
Littlefield. No doubt about it ... it<br />
isn't easy to stand up for something<br />
you truly believe in and get<br />
the necessary support you need to<br />
accomplish your fete. But despite<br />
the odds against being elected as<br />
this town's first Black Mayor, he<br />
stood tall and believed he could<br />
REALLY MAKE A DIFFER-<br />
ENCE it he was elected. With a<br />
of nearly 20 YEARS as a<br />
ally councilman, it's hard to<br />
bgljeve he was not elected, as he<br />
h,ad more experience than any of<br />
the-othe- r two persons seeking the<br />
Office - including one who has<br />
served as mayor in past years.<br />
Now who has the knowledge of<br />
knowing what is best for this town<br />
than our friend VAN ASHLEY,<br />
who is always talking about the<br />
good things happening in<br />
Littlefield, <strong>Texas</strong>. THIS N THAT<br />
still believes that if those in attendance<br />
of the banquet for Mr.<br />
Ashley would have taken JUST<br />
ONE PERSON to the voting polls<br />
either during early voting or on<br />
election day, VAN ASHLEY<br />
would have been elected, or in the<br />
upcoming run-o- ff election in<br />
June. He only received 19 OF<br />
THE VOTES, and there were<br />
only approximately 800 votes<br />
made in this race. Just think... if<br />
only those who really believed in<br />
VAN ASHLEY would have<br />
showed up, things could have<br />
Congratulations for<br />
long service!<br />
Dear Eddie:<br />
I am very happy to congratulate<br />
you, TJ. Patterson and the<br />
Southwest Digest newspaper for<br />
28 years of service to the Lubbock<br />
community. Your commitment to<br />
providing quality news and information<br />
to Black readers in <strong>Texas</strong><br />
is in the best tradition of the Black<br />
Press.<br />
Since 1827, the Black Press<br />
has had two goals: Eliminate<br />
racism and discrimination and<br />
celebrate Black culture and<br />
achievement. While some people<br />
today question the viability of the<br />
Black Press, it is clear to people<br />
like you and I that our people<br />
heed a vigilant Black Press today<br />
rijore than ever.<br />
Our uncompromising quest<br />
for liberty as a people will only be<br />
'<br />
promoted in a strong Black Press.<br />
Jljo other can tell that story as<br />
(Completely - or as eloquently. And<br />
we must continue to serve readers<br />
with uplifting information that<br />
promotes the best of Black culture<br />
-- n$ws and information that lifts us<br />
up. as a people, not tears us' down.<br />
It is a pleasure to honor a fellow<br />
warrior in the struggle for<br />
true liberation. I appreciate you, I<br />
calibrate you and I congratulate<br />
you.<br />

Life. today is so complex and<br />

, With the onset<br />

expectations of our youth is often a<br />
great disappointment because of<br />
the many temptations put before<br />
them and the immaturity to deal<br />
with them. The wealth of potential<br />

Parents are so busy trying to<br />
eke out a livelihood for their families<br />
until they do not have the time<br />
to teach their children about the<br />
'birds and the bees.' The lack of<br />
knowledge about many things put<br />
our youth in harm's way much too<br />
often, because we do not have time<br />
to talk to them and help them to be<br />
able to ferry the treacherous waters<br />

Morality has no place in the<br />
upbringing of our youth. Our<br />

and cons of what to do with condoms.<br />
We can still tell our youth<br />
about abstinence, the morality<br />
issues of marriage, and the risk of<br />

sexual activities which cannot protect<br />
them from HP and AIDS. We<br />
need to get 'in cinque' and talk to<br />
our youth. Help them to communicate<br />

them from the pitfalls of this fast<br />

knowledge they need. Give it to<br />

Stevie Wonder makes liistoric breakthrough for foiiiidaod low vision music fans<br />
LOS ANOBLES, May 5<br />
PfLNwswire - Stevte Wondar<br />
oiioa again is tr.aking music history<br />
by implementing a landmark<br />
music video innovation for his<br />
new song "So What The Fuss."<br />
Por the first time in music history,<br />
the new clip will contain a<br />
Stevie Wonder is breaking new ground with tin first video<br />
release from his new album, A Time To Love.<br />
second, descriptive audio track,<br />
recorded by hip hop star Busta<br />
Rhymes, to be made accessible<br />
to people who are blind or have<br />
low vision. Two versions of the<br />
video will be released; The first<br />
Will be a traditional music<br />
video, serviced to music channels;<br />
and the second version will<br />
be accompanied with the ground<br />
breaking video description technique,<br />
which airs on all SAP-accessib- le<br />
Television channels.<br />
On Monday, May 9 in Los<br />
Angeles, Stevie Wonder presented<br />
both versions of the video,<br />

his fans to experience the first<br />

"Until now music videos<br />
have been very one dimensional<br />
for those who are blind or with<br />
low vision," says Wonder. "Now<br />
all music video fans will be able<br />
to apply their vision to my video<br />
thanks to the descriptive tech--<br />
nique and of course, a Great narration<br />
by Busta Rhymes. For me,<br />
