Seven years ago, brothers Cal-vin and Malik Johnson or-ganized a basketball tourna-

ment at the Eastwick Recreation Center where Calvin is a recreation leader. The tournament expanded to a citywide event, with basketball tourneys held simultaneously at recreation centers throughout Philadelphia.

After much support and its positive effect on the community, these tourna-ments fanned out into a community

gathering and have become the annual event we call the Weekend of Peace.

This year on July 29-31, the 8th An-nual Weekend of Peace/Family Fun Day was held locally at both Kingsessing and Eastwick recreation centers. The events included free food, drinks and entertainment, featuring inspirational speaker Demitrius Horton, also known as “Automatic,” in the dance group Rap-ping About Prevention.

“It’s so easy to get caught up in the nonsense but it’s so hard to get out of

it,” said Horton while speaking to youth at the event, “If you have friends that try to manipulate you to do bad things, they’re not your real friends.”

One of the main attractions dur-ing the Weekend of Peace was the Ivan “Pick” Brown Memorial Basket-ball Tournament. Brown, who attended Monsignor Bonner High School and St. Joseph’s University, was an outstanding basketball player – a hero on and off the court. He played ball at Kingsessing too where his parents Southwest residents

One of the first con-sequences of the Republ ican- led

reduction of federal funds for government services needed by Southwest residents will be felt in Southwest next week.

As indicated in the article on the reduced hours at the Woodland Avenue Social Se-curity office on this page, due to reduced money for the So-cial Security Administration, that office will be obliged to close an hour early each day.

This is a vivid example of how a numerically small num-ber of conservatives in mid-western and southern states have twice blackmailed their

representatives in Congress to force government cutbacks which affect the lower and middle economic classes.

Last December, it was the extension of the Bush tax cuts for the rich that President Obama had to trade for criti-cally needed extension of un-employment benefits and de-ferral of payroll taxes – both vitally needed by the millions ordinary people who are out-of-work or in low paying jobs.

Last week, the shortsight-ed right-wingers forced a last-minute “compromise” which barters undefined government budget cutbacks and other

concessions for an increase in the debt limit – previously considered a formality rather than a basis for partisan politi-cal bargaining.

In forcing through this supposedly conservative agen-da, of course, the Tea-Party members have been oblivious to three important realities:

1. First, they have been ma-nipulated by tremendously powerful business interests into backing their thought-less “small government – no-tax-increase” position. In the end, the compro-mises forced on President Obama only benefit really wealthy individuals and large corporations by con-tinuing the tax reductions passed during the Bush ad-ministration.

2. Second, by blindly pushing the simplistic concept of smaller government, these right-wingers fail to realize that in the end, they are the beneficiaries of many of the federal and state programs they seek to cut – Medi-care, Social Security, vet-

erans benefits, repairs to highways and bridges, air travel safety, and dozens of others.

3. Thirdly, the Republicans conveniently forget that the greater part of the national debt they are so concerned about were the result of President Bush’s policies: Not paying for his wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the unconscionable tax ben-efits for the rich, his failure to control banks and fi-nancial speculators which caused much of the current economic downturn, and his own bank bailouts.

Some voices on the far left of the political spectrum have begun finding fault with Pres-ident Obama and his party leaders in Congress for agree-ing to these budget cuts and wealthy tax breaks. We take strong exception to these com-plainers.

In our view, a consider-able part of the blame for the fact that government funding of key social programs are at risk is that local Democratic

Party workers and ordinary voters failed to show up for last November’s election. This contributed significantly to Republicans gaining control of the US House of Represen-tatives (and our entire Penn-sylvania government as well).

The leaders of the Repub-lican Party have stated clearly and plainly that the steps they have taken to pass their reac-tionary legislation and attempt to block President Obama’s programs have a single objec-tive – to defeat him and elect a Republican to the White House in November 2012.

The passage of voter reg-istration and election day vot-ing requirements has imposed an substantial extra burden on those who feel that the Presi-dent Obama should be contin-ued in office and be supported by fair-minded legislators in both Houses of Congress (and in Harrisburg). It is not too soon to begin taking practical and comprehensive steps to offset these restrictions on our voting rights.

Republican Funding Cuts Begin to Hurt

Effective August 15, 2011, the Social Se-curity Office at 6120

Woodland Ave. will be open to the public Monday through Fri-day from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. – a reduction of 30 minutes each weekday.

While agency employees on the second floor offices in the Woodland Village Plaza main building will continue to work their regular hours, this shorter public window will allow them to complete face-to-face service with the visiting public without

incurring the cost of overtime. Congress provided Social

Security with nearly $1 billion less than the President request-ed for the budget this fiscal year, which makes it impos-sible for the agency to provide the amount of overtime needed to handle service to the public as it has in the past.

The Social Security Admin-istration urges those needing its services to begin the process by contacting them through the internet or by phone. In many cases, Social Security services

do not require a visit to an of-fice. For example, anyone wish-ing to apply for benefits, sign up for direct deposit, replace a Medicare card, obtain a proof of income letter or advise a change of address or telephone number may do so at www.socialsecu-rity.gov or by dialing the toll-free number, 1-800-772-1213. People who are deaf or hard of hearing may call the TTY num-ber, 1-800-325-0778.

Three of the area’s top healthcare-re-lated organizations

have combined to launch a healthy eating program in Southwest and elsewhere in the city. The “Small Steps Program,” to combat obesity kicked off Saturday, July 30, next to the Woodland Avenue Health Center of Greater Phil-adelphia Health Action, Inc. (GPHA) at 5000 Woodland Ave.

Local residents were able to obtain fresh vegetables and fruit grown by farmers in Lan-caster county and visit tables where health professionals from UnitedHealthcare Com-munity & State, the country’s largest Medicaid managed care company checked blood

pressure and provided other healthy lifestyle information.

Greater Philadel-phia Health Action, Inc. is a major provider of primary, dental and behavioral healthcare in Southwest with its two health centers on Woodland Avenue.

GPHA founder and CEO Ronald Hei-gler broadcast a mes-sage to the public over radio station WURD-AM strongly support-ing the consumption of locally grown, nat-ural foods as a means of reducing obesity and the medical conditions associated with being over-

weight such as heart disease and diabetes.

“Obesity is a public health crisis in Philadelphia,” said

Mayor Michael Nutter. “The prevalence of diseases as-sociated with obesity is well

above national goals, and socioeconomic and racial dispari-ties are a common factor. Everyone in the Commonwealth deserves access to available information and resources to help us fight obesity in or-der to live healthier lives.”

According to a 2008 U.S. Depart-ment of Public Health report, in Philadel-phia, 64% of adults and 57% of children

ages 6 to 11 are overweight or obese. Additionally, nearly

70% of children are over-weight or considered clinical-ly “obese” in North Philadel-phia which means their Body Mass Index (BMI) is above the national standard for weight and height measurements.

Also noted in the report is a connection between a lack of access to affordable, healthy foods as a risk fac-tor for obesity and related poor health outcomes. The need for increased access to healthy foods was also shown to be especially important in low-income, minority neigh-borhoods in the City of Phila-delphia.

When Southwest residents have problems getting their finances in order,

they can find help by consulting advis-ers at Southwest CDC.

That was the experience of Bea-trice Tuazama who lives just down the street from the Southwest CDC offices on Paschall Avenue. “If you have trou-bles organizing your payments or bills, I suggest you come along and visit the friendly people at number 6328,” she said recently. “They tell you free of charge just what you need to do in that lively office there.”

Tuazama remi-nisced on the first time she sought help from South-west CDC.

“The first time I went there was at the suggestion of one of my neighbors and I was advised to return with all my bills,” Tuazama recalled.

When she got back, she was sched-uled for counseling on managing her finances, looking at her mortgage situa-tion, getting caught up with heating and electrical bills, and even getting some help with plumbing and weatherization repairs. “They have experts in every room of the office, and all of them went the extra mile for me,” she said. “The receptionist, Virginia, was especially helpful and friendly, organizing every-thing for me.”

“When my daughter was having dif-

ficulties at school with other children trying to put her down and make her feel uncomfortable, Southwest CDC knew the right people to call to get help,” indi-cated Tuazama, a Liberian native whose father originally came from Sierra Le-one. “I love every one of those employ-ees. I really found them a blessing!”.

“My advice to my neighbors is:

leave your problems at home,” said Tuazama, recently named Mother of the Year at Church of the Living God at 61st Street and Woodland Avenue. “When you go to work, be kind, re-spectful and smil-ing. If you don’t have a job, get in-volved in some kind of public service. No matter what’s happening in your life, be willing to reach out and help

other people. That‘s what the people at Southwest CDC do; just go to them and tell them what you need.”

Responding to Tuazama’s invitation to Southwest residents to come to the office for help, Ebony Taylor, self suffi-ciency counselor at Southwest CDC not-ed that the non-profit agency is limited in some instances, to helping residents who live in certain zip codes including 19143, 19142 and 19153.

“But, we can always refer you to the right organization for assistance if we can’t help you ourselves,” said Ebony.

Readers of the South-west Globe Times newspaper this

summer may have noticed the increasing number of articles bearing the byline of Caleb Nothwehr. His active cover-age of events and penetrating interviews with local person-

alities have added much to the interest of residents who rely on the Globe Times for the “good news” about their community.

His writing assignments for the Globe Times have tak-en him the length and breadth of Southwest – which he cov-ers on his trusty red bicycle,

rain or shine.

Said Globe Times editor Edith Dixon, “Caleb obvious-ly has a passion for writing. He’s thorough and has a great capacity for getting people to open up to him. That’s what lets him write articles that folks like to read. We’re really lucky to have him available

to help us with the paper for these few months.”

“Caleb uses a delightful, natural style in composing his articles that fits in with the way we approach our stories at the Globe Times,” added publisher Ted Behr. “We have had numerous compliments about his writing – both from

people who read the stories and from those he has writ-ten about.”

Nothwehr, a native of Iowa, has his undergraduate degree in journalism from the University of Kansas. He now serves as a graduate assistant at Eastern Univer-sity in suburban St. Davids, Pa., while he pursues his master’s degree in multicul-tural education. At Eastern he acts as a communica-tions liaison between pro-fessors and other graduate students.

Part of his ability to establish a warm relation-ship with the subjects of his writing no doubt stems from having worked for more than two years as an associate area director for the Christian youth organi-

zation Young Life in Denver, Colo. At Young Life, he re-cruited and trained volunteer mentors to come alongside young people to give greater meaning and purpose to their lives.

“Working with kids and families at an urban Denver school, serving as a mentor, tutor, counselor and friend provided me with an assort-ment of experiences working with under-resourced and under-served families,” Noth-wehr recounted to the Globe Times.

“My experiences with Young Life propelled me to explore a career in education,” he added. “My graduate assis-tantship at Eastern allows me to serve as the assistant editor for the International Journal of Multicultural Education This lets me gain experience in writing and editing, doing research and overseeing the publication of a companion blog for the Journal.”

Married for the past year-and-a-half, Caleb and his wife Amy now reside in West Phil-adelphia.

Ronald and Rebecca Brown, are involved in activities.

Sadly, Mr. Brown became the victim of senseless violence when he was shot to death in Southwest back in 2004. His killer was never found. Through this tragedy, the Ivan “Pick” Brown Memorial Foun-dation was created.

“Ivan trained youth on sportsmanship, team work, and skill,” said Rob Brown Jr., Ivan’s brother. “We want the youth to see that you can have sports and it doesn’t have to involve violence.”

The Browns host a fam-ily fun day every year which involves about 300 girls and boys who come out to play basketball.

This tournament fit in well with the concept developed by Weekend of Peace found-

ers Calvin and Malik Johnson, whose mother was one of the first female coaches in their West Philadelphia neighbor-hood making sports always at the center of their family fun.

The Weekend of Peace had many key players who volun-

tarily organized the event. At Kingsessing, the activities are spearheaded by members of the South West Action Coali-

tion (SWAC) many of whom said they want “peace” to last longer than just a weekend.

“What it symbolizes in terms of the hope is that there will be 365 days of peace,” said Christine Riddick, member of South West Action Coalition

(SWAC) and a Weekend of Peace organizer. “The commu-nity is the key to its success.”

This year there were few-er health care providers after SWAC had to re-organize. Af-ter a late start, it was unable to get many health care pro-viders and other vendors who normally grace the rec center’s sprawling grounds on the day of the event. Though the city-

wide event had fewer partici-pants than in previous years, community members said they felt their involvement is the

bigger piece. To that end, it was a day filled with fun and a total success according to Seth Williams, Philadelphia’s Dis-trict Attorney.

“I’m very thankful about the organization of the Week-end of Peace,” said Williams. “It’s important to let the youth know that adults are involved in good things.”

Anyone interested in volunteering for next year’s Weekend of Peace can contact Christine Riddick at 215-746-2715, or SWAC chairman and Kingsessing Advisory Council president Tom Henry at 215-685-2695. To give to the Ivan “Pick” Brown Memorial Foun-dation, Inc. call Ronald C. Brown Sr. at 215-729-2531 or 267-984-5424 or visit the or-ganization’s website at www.IvanPickBrown.org.

There is still a profound belief by most people living in the United

States of America that a democ-racy works best when the public is engaged. We even thought the City of Philadelphia City Council agreed.

As reported by philly.com: On June 23, Council passed a res-olution promising to “hold public community based hearings to ed-ucate and inform citizens on the redistricting process . . . in order to create an open and transparent opportunity for public engage-ment.” Of course June 23 was probably too late to begin a real process of education and engage-ment considering the magnitude and complexity of the task, and oh yes, council is normally not in session during their summer recess.

Under the city charter, the 10 councilmanic districts must be redrawn every 10 years. Us-ing census data, council must make sure that each district has roughly 10% of the population - or 152,600 people, according to the latest federal census count.

What underlying issues

might get in the way of public participation in redistricting?

As set forth in our city char-ter: “...the councilmen shall not receive any further salaries until the Council shall have passed and the mayor shall have approved a redistricting ordinance as herein required...”

If Council doesn’t complete an acceptable and legal redistrict-ing ordinance within six months of the data being released, then its members go without pay, which happened in 1991 and 2001. This year the deadline is Sept. 9.

A look back 10 years ago to a famous moment in Philadelphia City Council redistricting history in the office of the then presi-dent of City Council, as retold on philly.com: Dealing with a di-vorce, Councilman Rick Mariano owned two houses in his district, one in Northwood, the other in Juniata Park. The map he saw had both addresses in other dis-tricts, he said.

“This ain’t going to happen,” Mariano told his colleagues, add-ing a string of expletives, accord-ing to his account and those of others who were in the room.

Then Councilman Angel Ortiz, long an advocate for in-creasing the number of Hispanic voters in Mariano’s district, said something about the difficulty of drawing new lines.

“You’re threatening my job. You ain’t going to do that,” Mari-ano replied. “I’ll knock out your teeth and throw you out the win-dow.”

Some claim, another reason Council doesn’t want public par-ticipation is, redistricting’s only purpose is to cast in stone the incumbents’ donor and political bases, and, as best as possible, assure the incumbents’ or party in power’s re-election chances. Thus the resulting districts em-body the goals of politicians not the interests of the represented communities and the public at large.

The NAACP has a longstand-ing interest in redistricting na-tionwide. Responding to pressure from our local branch, city coun-cil announced it will conduct ad-ditional public hearings on how to redraw their district boundar-ies and sent out the following an-nouncement: At 10:30 a.m. Tues-

day, Aug. 16 a hearing will be held in City Council’s chambers, Room 400 City Hall. Two addi-tional hearings will be held at locations outside of Center City Philadelphia. (We will try to an-nounce them in the Globe Times to our Southwest community.)

The public will have a fourth opportunity to express its views once a bill proposing a new re-districting plan is introduced. The bill will likely be offered at council’s Sept. 8 session, and, as is the case with all bills, will be followed by a scheduled hearing at which members of the public will have a full opportunity to testify.

Persons wishing to testify in person at any of the hearings are asked to call 215-686-3407 and to leave a message with their name and telephone number. Written testimony may also be submit-ted at any time, and will be dis-tributed to each council member and made a part of the official record. Written testimony should be e-mailed to maranda.garcia@phila.gov or delivered to the Of-fice of the Chief Clerk of Council in Room 402 City Hall.

The local software and map-ping firm Azavea has built www.fixphillydistricts.com that allows citizens to draw their own Coun-cil districts. Azavea, WHYY/Newsworks, the Daily News edi-torial board, and the Penn Project for Civic Engagement recently hosted a workshop and are spon-soring a contest, to help/encour-age citizens to participate.

Harris Sokoloff, faculty di-rector of the Penn Project on Civ-ic Engagement wants civic en-gagement because citizens tend to think about issues differently from experts. And, it is important for council people and the citi-zens they represent, to engage in give and take with each other.

Azavea will conduct webi-nars on how to use the tool at 6:30 p.m. Thurs., Aug. 11, and 6:30 p.m. next Mon., Aug. 15. Sign up to take part at FixPhillyDistricts.com.

Bright smiles adorned the faces of children at the Summer Camp

at Patterson Elementary School last week, following another visit from a dental van that provides free service to urban children.

The budding doc-tors of Penn Smiles, a mobile dental office, sponsored by the Uni-versity of Pennsylvania, School of Dental Medi-cine to do community outreach in dentistry to schools in this area, stopped by the Patter-son Summer Camp last week to give free dental screenings and follow up visits to students. In addition, some of the parents whose children participated in the pro-gram received a compli-mentary fan courtesy of the CityLights Network, a program of the Wayne Presbyterian Church, Wayne, Pa.

The students had their teeth cleaned and filled. They also re-ceived appointments for future visits.

“The campers didn’t have

to go to them to get their teeth cleaned,” said a smiling Jackie Simmons, a Patterson Summer Camp supervisor. “The dental students of Penn came to them. The parents were delighted.”

Parents of the nearly 70 camp-

ers signed a parental release form for Penn Smiles, whose staffers treated about seven students a day. One day the van broke down on its way to the school. However that did not stop the determined, budding doctors from providing oral care to the campers.

“They came without the bus and set up in the gym using a portable chair and dental equip-ment,” said Simmons, “and went on performing their services as usual.”

Simmons said the staff at Penn Smiles went above and beyond the call of duty just to work on the children’s teeth at Patterson prior to the last day of camp on Friday, August 12.

“The parents and campers wanted to say thanks to the Penn Smiles instructor and the Penn dental stu-dents,” she said, “for all their help in attempts to keep our teeth clean. Thanks.”

In addition, Sim-mons said the Patterson campers and their par-

ents wanted to extend a sincere thanks to CityLights for the gen-erous fan donation.

“Those fans helped cool off a lot of our campers during this last hot spell,” she said.

Penn Smiles on Patterson Summer Camp

Penn Smiles, a mobile dental office, sponsored by the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, stopped by the summer camp at Patterson Elementary last week to give free dental screenings to students.

Local twins Amayia and Mi-lan Jennings, age 9, may have found their career launching

point as laboratory scientists through the Science in the Summer program at Cobbs Creek Library, held July 19 and 20.

“As soon as we left, they started experimenting in the van,” said Jack-ie Brack, the twins’ mother. Brack said she had to rein in her daughters’ enthusiasm as they started to turn the van into a laboratory with their mag-nifying glasses and test tube drop-pers.

The Jennings sisters were two of about 30 grade-school students who participated in the program at Cobbs Creek Library. The program – now in its 25th year – extends to more than 100 other branch libraries in the metro area with close to 5,000 students par-ticipating. Enrollment for the program is filled for this summer, but supportive parents are enthusiastic about its re-sults.

“It sparks more interest,” Brack said, “If I say ‘let’s go check out something on DNA,’ they’ll know what I’m talking about.”

For participating libraries in Phila-delphia, this year’s program focused on genetics. Students found themselves constructing DNA models out of pipe cleaners and beads, and even extracting actual DNA from a strawberry.

“In general it’s nice to have a hands-on, fun experience with science rather than taking a test,” said Sarah Stippich, children’s librarian at Cobbs Creek Li-brary.

“The Science in the Summer pro-gram, funded by GlaxoSmithKline, has been going on for more than three years at the Cobbs Creek branch”, Stippich said.

“While the program is open to all grade-school students, it specifically encourages female students to sharp-en their science skills,” said Allathea Joniec, program director for Philadel-phia County.

Joniec said that programs like Science in the Summer are vital for helping kids retain what they learned during the school year.

“Anything we can do to hold the line on the gains that kids have made during the school year – during the sum-mer months – is a very, very good thing,” Joniec said.

A strength of the program is its funding from pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline, Joniec said, which al-lows students and teachers to count on topnotch supplies and curriculum.

“I hear from some of the teachers that in their own schools they don’t have this level of support,” Joniec said.

The Science in the Summer pro-gram is over for this year, but parents and students are encouraged to watch for registration dates starting in May 2012. Find out more information at http://scienceinthesummer.com.

The next scheduled cleanup day in the ongoing effort to restore Mt. Moriah Cemetery

will take place Saturday, August 13 be-ginning at 8 a.m. Sign-in and work as-signments will take place at the main Southwest entrance at 6201 Kingsessing Ave.

“We hope that (community mem-bers) will join us and invite others, as well,” advised Paulette Rhone, Community and Government Rela-tions chair of the Friends of Mount Moriah, Inc.

Joining the Friends of Mount Moriah, will be teams from co-hosts City of Philadelphia, Global Citi-zen, Philadelphia Cares, Build a Grave and Save A Fence. The organizers expect to wrap up this second restoration effort at the historic burial grounds at 1 p.m.

Further Saturday cleanup days are

scheduled for September 10 and Octo-ber 8.

The work scheduled for this com-ing Saturday includes clearing addi-tional areas of weeds, tall grass and trash.

Mt. Moriah Cemetery was chartered origi-nally in 1855. A number of Phila-delphia mayors, civil war veter-ans, and historic figures were bur-ied there. Today, Mt. Moriah is the final resting place for the loved ones of many area families.

For more in-formation, contact Rhone, Friends of Mount Moriah Cemetery, Inc., www.fommc.org. Individuals and groups can sign up by contacting www.SERVE-Philadelphia.com.

The oppressively hot days of July are no match for Glo-ria Turner and her garden.

When the temperature rises, she just rises earlier in the morning to water her flowers.

“They need plenty of water, just like people,” Turner said, “Those are my little people that don’t talk back.”

Turner, a co-block captain in the 1200 block of 52nd Street, works diligently to maintain a vi-brant garden in a neighborhood where she has shared leadership with Dwight Byrd for the past 10 to 15 years.

“As I tell all the children, the flow-ers aren’t there just for you. It’s there for everybody to walk by and feel good as they see the beauty,” Turner said.

During her tenure as a block captain, Turner said the culturally diverse neighborhood has seen both

economic prosperity and more difficult times. She said she believes it is her job to keep the community informed, in-volved, and connected.

“I notice in a lot of neighborhoods, people don’t know each other,” she

said, “We try to know the children.”

Turner is part of a larger cohort of 15-20 block captains in Southwest called the Kingsessing 5th Division Community of Neighbors (K5DCN), which meets regularly to discuss issues that affect the community.

Block Captain’s Garden Flourishes

Scott Maits, Philadelphia Parks and Recreation care-taker at the Historic Blue

Bell Inn on Cobbs Creek was inducted to the Eastwick/International Airport Rotary Club at the organization’s meet-ing on July 6.

Maits is also well known in the community as an active member of the Friends of Mount Moriah Cem-etery. As the chair of the Environmen-tal Committee of the Friends board, he has been in the forefront of recent ef-forts to clean up the 160-year old his-toric burial ground. The Friends said they hope Mount Moriah can become a major asset once again for both Phil-adelphia and Delaware County, Maits indicated.

In addition to researching the early history of Pennsylvania and the many events which were centered in this area, he helps plan and conduct cleanups of the Cobbs Creek Park ar-eas and other community projects.

Maits is also vice president of the Delaware Valley Association of Rail Passengers, a Senior Eastern Fellow for the Environmental Leadership Program and is on the Pennsylvania Committee of the East Coast Green-way, which winds through Southwest Philadelphia. Maits has served as the chair of the Darby Creek Valley As-sociation Eastwick/Folcroft landfills TAG Committee for the Environmen-tal Protection Agency.
