Camille Mitchell, Pvt. Henry Johnson, Sgt. William Shemin, The President Awards the Medal of Honor Posthumously to two World War I Veterans
Hello Everyone:
Declaring it’s never too late to make things right, President Barack Obama posthumously bestowed the Medal of Honor on two World War I veterans whose heroic acts nearly 100 years ago went unrecognized in an age of discrimination.
In a tearful, joyful East Room ceremony recalling the battlefield triumphs as well as the prejudices of 20th century America, Sgt. William Shemin and Pvt. Henry Johnson were recognized with the nation’s highest military decoration for saving their comrades on French front lines. Shemin was Jewish and Johnson was black.

It was Marian Anderson who broke the racial barrier in opera, and it was through opera that the last three decades of Black American singers made their way. From the first great standard-bearer of that group, Leontyne Price, down to the present generation represented by Kathleen Battle and Jessye Norman, almost all of these singers have made spirituals a central element of their recitals
–
The Kathleen Battle, Jessye Norman: Spirituals in Concert Audio CD and/or Video has 18 spirituals some familiar and others not as well known. Each diva has solos as well as duets. “It is a ‘tour-de-force’ of pastiche, charisma, camp and virtuosity.”

Obama’s glad he used the N-word
–
Politico.com
By Edward-Isaac Dovere

President Barack Obama’s glad he said what he said.
And he believes America proved his point on Monday: Even in the wake of an amateur white supremacist shooting nine African-Americans to death in a historically black church in the hopes of inciting a race war, we still struggle to have a genuine discussion about race in this country.
Aides said that walking into Marc Maron’s garage to tape a podcast on Friday, Obama knew he’d probably get asked about race, and he knew roughly what he wanted to say. When the taping ended, he could guess that most people would focus on the president of the United States, the nation’s black president, using the most racially charged word in the English language.
When the interview went live Monday morning, the news went everywhere: Obama said “nigger.”

===================
Friday, June 26th:
President Obama will travel to Charleston to eulogize Rev. Clementa Pinckney, pastor o fEmanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, whom the president considered a friend and who was a well-known leader in South Carolina, where he also served as a state senator.

"Race Together", Attorney General Eric Holder, Camille Mitchell, Charleston, Howard Schultz, Paulo Coelho, President Obama, S.C., Starbucks, still keen to talk about race
Hello Everyone:
–
–
A sign of true leadership is that leaders take action and that’s exactly what Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks did several months ago in which he had to abandon theRace Together talks a week later mainly because people couldn’t wrap their head around it at 8:00am as they ordered their coffee on the way to work.
–
The concept was courageous (see Paulo Coelho on NCM Blog post below) – only the format and time of day, etc. were problematic for people. There should be no surprise that Howard Schultz is one of my favorite CEO’s and Starbucks is one of my favorite companies.
–
Along with former attorney general Eric Holder’s “Nation of Cowards” speech back in 2009–Americans buried their heads in the sand especially the sad body of people called the U.S. Congress. (see NCM Blog post below)
–
As President Obama stated in his remarks on South Carolina last week–at some point the American people are going to have to reckon with the truth. (see NCM Blog post below)
–
–
Howard Schultz, CEO Starbucks picking up where
the conversation left off in March 2015
–
–
Three months ago, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz was widely ridiculed for his idea to get people talking, over Starbucks coffee, about race relations in America. Though he quickly backtracked on a piece of the plan that would have had employees directly engaging customers in discussions about race, he isn’t abandoning the issue.
–
On Thursday, June 18, Schultz sent a memo to Starbucks employees in the US about the mass shooting that occurred the evening before in a historic black church in Charleston, South Carolina. The memo began:
–
“My heart is heavy for Charleston today and the senseless hate crime that has impacted not only that community, but our Starbucks family and our nation as a whole. Emanuel AME Church is a historic place of worship which has played a strong role in the civil rights movement. And, in times like these, we search for answers for how such a horrific act could happen. Now more than ever, I feel the need to reach out to each of you and express my concern, my disbelief and my hope that we can be there for the community and with one another to unite and to heal.”
–
Schultz was in Charleston, visiting two Starbucks coffee shops not far from the church and one on the campus of the College of Charleston.
A Starbucks spokeswoman says Schultz met with about 75 employees during his visit, and says the company is “working to see what support we can provide to the local community.”
–
At least some of the responses to Schultz’s efforts to confront the topic of race relations seem a little more receptive this time around.

–
In addition to meeting with partners in three stores and listening to their stories during a partner forum, Schultz pledged that the Starbucks Foundation will donate $100,000 to two funds in the community. A $50,000 contribution will be made to the “Mother Emanuel Hope Fund,” established by the City of Charleston to help family members of the shooting victims pay for funerals, counseling and other needs. The other $50,000 will be directed to Lowcountry Ministries – Reverend Pinckney Fund to be used to support vulnerable populations and youth projects that Reverend Clementa Pinckney was passionate about.

Attorney General Eric Holder said Wednesday that despite advances, the United States remains “a nation of cowards” on issues involving race.
“Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial, we have always been, and we, I believe, continue to be, in too many ways, a nation of cowards,” Holder said in remarks to his staff in honor of Black History Month. His comments appear on a transcript provided by the Justice Department.
“Even as we fight a war against terrorism; deal with the reality of electing an African-American, for the first time, as the president of the United States; and deal with other significant issues of the day, the need to confront our racial past and to understand our racial present, and to understand the history of African people in this country — that all endures,” the attorney general added.
“Though race-related issues continue to occupy a significant portion of our political discussion, and though there remain many unresolved racial issues in this nation, we, average Americans, simply do not talk enough with each other about things racial.”
Holder said that the Department of Justice, in particular, bears a singular responsibility.
“And we, in this room, bear a special responsibility,” he said. “Through its work and through its example, the Department of Justice — this Department of Justice — as long as I’m here, must and will leave the nation to the new birth of freedom so long ago promised by our greatest president. This is our duty, this is our solemn responsibility.”
Holder said that the country is now a “fundamentally different” place than it used to be, but that the nation “still had not come to grips with its racial past, nor has it been willing to contemplate, in a truly meaningful way, the diverse future it is fated to have.”
“To our detriment, this is typical of the way in which this nation deals with issues of race,” he said.

ESSENCE On-line Magazine
June 18, 2015
–
The country is grieving after a gunman opened fire and killed nine, including Rev. Clementa Pinckney, at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal church, a historic Black church in Charleston, S.C., that is the oldest AME in the South.
The church boasts a storied history, constructed in 1816. It has lived through fires, hate crimes and the Civil Rights movement. But through it all, the AME has endured. We continue to send our prayers to the victims, their families, the church congregation and the city of Charleston.
–
1. The church is the oldest African Methodist Episcopal church in the South
Under the leadership of Rev. Morris Brown, the church was founded in 1816 after members of Charleston’s Methodist Episcopal Church left because of a conflict in burial grounds. According to a report out of the College of Charleston, Rev. Brown became the first ordained minister in the AME church, and approximately 1,400 worshippers followed him to Emanuel AME, or, as its congregation refers to it, “Mother Emanuel.”
2. The church was burned down in 1822
Years before the church was established, Denmark Vesey, who would become a leader in the church, had organized a slave rebellion that had failed. Undeterred, he encouraged the congregation to stage another rebellion on July 2, 1822. However, once a White slaveowner received word of the uprising, the rebellion was axed, the organizers were tried and executed and the church was set on fire.
3. Congregants held “underground” church services for more than 30 years
In 1834, the state of South Carolina outlawed all Black churches, forcing the congregation to meet in secret until 1865—the end of the Civil War—when they could formerly reorganize. It was then that it adopted the name “Emanuel,” meaning “God with us.”
4. The church was destroyed in an earthquake
Twenty-one years after formerly reorganizing, the church faced another trial when it was destroyed in an earthquake in 1886. It took five years to rebuild, where, under the leadership of Rev. L. Ruffin Nichols, it was replaced by the towering steeple that marks the church today. According to the church’s website, Rev. Nichols and his wife are buried under the base of the steeple “so that they may forever be with the Emanuel that they helped to nurture.”
5. Booker T. Washington spoke at the church in 1909
During his visit through southern states, Booker T. Washington stopped by the church to speak to a diverse audience. The esteemed scholar spoke on the racial climate of the city and the country as a whole.
6. Martin Luther King led a rally at the church in 1962
At the height of the Civil Rights Movement, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered an impassioned speech at Mother Emanuel, where he spoke of making the “American dream a reality.” After King’s death, Coretta Scott King led a march fighting for workers rights, and Emanuel AME was the marchers’ starting point.

‘It’s Time’ for all Americans to Share in Country’s Success

Hillary Clinton on Saturday told struggling Americans “it’s time” for them to share in the country’s economic recovery and recalled a personal history she said inspired a lifetime of service for the disenfranchised in her first major speech since launching her presidential campaign.
“You brought our country back, now it’s time, your time, to secure the gains and move ahead,” Clinton said at the rally held on New York City’s Roosevelt Island. “And you know what? American can’t succeed unless you succeed. That is why I am running for president of the United States.”

campaign launch, New York_June 13, 2015

Clinton, who announced her candidacy in an online video in April, used the rally to detail a progressive platform focused on working-class Americans who continue to struggle, even as the country’s economic outlook has improved.
The rally’s location, an island located between Manhattan and Queens, was rich in symbolism meant to highlight Clinton’s long career in public service. She served as a senator from New York for eight years and the United Nations, where she frequently represented the U.S. as secretary of state, could be seen behind her as she spoke Saturday.
She also said she was happy to formally launch her campaign “in a place with absolutely no ceilings,” one of many references to the historic nature of her bid to become the nation’s first female president.
