Part I
Non-voters are key to
November elections...
By: Hazel Trice Edney
Tri-State Defender
November 5 will be one of
the most important non-
presidential elections in re-
cent years as Democrats and
Republicans compete fiercely
to see which party will con-
trol the U.S. Senate and the
House of Representatives.
Although White voters out-
number African-Americans,
it has been proven time and
again that African-American
voters can tilt the outcome of
any close election. Will
Blacks turn out in significant
numbers? That is a question
being debated as hotly as
which party will emerge vic-
torious after the ballots are
counted. This is the first of a
four-part special NorthStar
Investigative Report examin-
ing Black voter attitudes and
what's at stake on Election
Day.
The Editors
Washington......... A. Peter
Bailey is an Afrocentric jour-
nalist, author, lecturer, col-
lege professor and _ activist.
He cares deeply about na-
tional and __ international
issues-----but not enough to
vote. He has voted only once
in the past 25 years and that
was for Jesse Jackson in
1984.
"Some people feel as though
they have to vote. But, I feel
as though if there is not a
candidate that I feel as
though I can support, then I
don't vote," says Bailey. In
addition to supporting
Jackson, he voted for Percy
Sutton, a Black civil rights
lawyer and Harlem entrepre-
neur, in the 1977 NY City
Mayoral race.
At a time when affirmative
action is under assault,
President Bush is trying to
pack the federal courts with
Right-wing ideologues, and
outspoken Black politicians
are coming under increasing
attack. To have a person as
politically enlightened as
Bailey adamantly refusing to
vote presents a serious chal-
lenge for political organizers,
who already face an uphill
struggle to increase Black
voter turnout.
More than 8.7 million voting-
age Blacks were not regis-
tered during the 2000 presi-
dential election. Another 2.4
million were registered but
did not go to the polls. On
the other hand, 12,9 million
cast ballots. This means the
number of Blacks who re-
fused to register or go to the
polls was almost equal to the
number who voted,
Looked at another way,
those numbers are even more
distressing. Because more
than 90% African-Americans
That also was done through
legislation, the imposition of
poll taxes and requiring
Blacks to pass bogus literacy
tests. It wasn't long before all
Black members of Congress
were moved.
It would be more than half-
century later, with the pas-
sage of the Civil Rights Act of
1964, " before African-
Americans would begin re-
gaining political power. Even
so, the landmark civil rights
legislation did not adequately
protect the voting rights of
Blacks. It had been clear for
years that special legislation
would be needed to make the
Black vote meaningful. But
the fight over vote empower-
ment would be played out in
Alabama, the state next door.
Selma, Ala., and surround-
ing Dallas County, had 15,156
Black citizens in 1964, but
only 156 were registered to
vote. To change that, a
march from Selma to the
state capital in Montgomery
was organized to put pressure
on Congress to pass the
Voting Rights Act.
Hundreds of demonstators--
-Black and White---were in-
jured and some were killed
for their efforts. Some of the
worst violence took place on
what became known as
"Bloody Sunday," March 7,
1965. On that day, Alabama
state troopers used batons,
water hoses,and police dogs
to attack and turn back about
600 protestors, led by John
Lewis, the head of the
~ Student non-Violence
Coordinating Committee
(SNCC), on the Edmund
Pettus Bridge.
Ultimately, on Sunday,
March 21, Lewis, his SNCC
colleagues and organizers for
the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference
(SCLC), would be joined by
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,
SCLC president, to success-
fully lead more than 3,000
protestors across that same
bridge and eventually to
Montgomery.
Moved by night after night
a raw violence on television,
Congress passed the Voting
Rights Act that summer, and
President Johnson signed it
into law on Aug. 06, 1965.
That created a political base
for African-Americans across
the South. As a direct result
of the law, for example, voter
registration in Mississippi in-
creased from 6.7% of eligible
Black voters in March 1965
to 74.2% in November 1988.
Not surprisingly, the num-
ber of Black elected officials
1871, Lt: Gov. PBS.
Pinchback served 43 days as
America's first Black gover-
nor when the White gover-
nor, Henry Warmoth, was
impeached. In all, 22 blacks
were elected to Congress be-
tween 1870 and 1901.
However, a series of calcu-
lated actions----the "Plessy v.
Ferguson" Supreme Court
decision of 1 upholding
segregation, the Compromise
of 1877 that essentially
empowered the South to sub-
ordinate Blacks and the rise
of the Klu Klux Klan---were

tures that they could eviscer-

ususally vote for the
Democratic nominee for
president, had those who
were registered and stayed
home taken a different tact or
those eligible to vote had
actually registered and voted,
Al Gore would be president
today instead of George W.
Bush.
To many organizers, that's
reason enough to _ vote.
However, that argument has
not changed the minds of
people like Bailey, who stead-
fastlty defends his decision to
stay home. "A consciou
non-vote is a political act,�
says Bailey. "It is not an act
of ignorance. It is not an act
of apathy. It is a conscious
decision that the system has
not provided me with the type
of people that I believe are
going to make the changes
that I believe are necessary in
order for everything to be
best done for myself, my
family, and my people. "
Ron Daniels, executive direc-
tor of the Center for
Constitutional Rights in New
York and chairman of the
Institute of the Black World
21st Century, shares Bailey's
view that Black people would
be best served by the creation
of an independent Black po-
litical party.
Until then, however, he does
not believe that Blacks should
sit it out on election day.
"It's a bad idea," he says.
"What we really need is for
Black folks to vote. What has
happened is because too
many Black people don't see
a relationship between their
vote and any change in their
lives; a lot of people have
been turned off by the proc-
ess. But, on the other hand,
if we don't vote, we yield the
field to the other side. We
yield the field particularly to
the Right-wing conserva-
tive."
The idea that some African-
Americans are even debating
the need to vote comes as a
surprise to many, considering
all it took to get access to the
ballot. The Fourteenth
Amendment was ratified by
Congress in 1868, giving for-
mer slaves full citizenship,
and the Fifteenth
Amendment was ratified in
1870, guaranteeing the free-
dom to vote regardless of
one's race. AS a result, Black
political power exploded dur-
ing this period.
In 1868, Blanche Kelso was
elected to the US Senate from
Mississippi and became the
first Black senator to serve a
complete six-year term. In
across the country increased
from about 300 in 1965 to
9,040 in 2000. Still, that's
only 1.8% of all election
officials, The Rev. Jesse
Jackson, who dropped out of
the Chicago Theological
Seminary to participate in
Selma, has little patience for
those who don't vote.
"It's like going to a store to
get groceries and you come
back home. with an empty
basket because you couldn't
get one particular kind of
vegetable or piece of meat,"
he explains,
"There's much more involved
in the political process than a
person or an idea,"

Brilliant military " strategist,
charismatic leader, and a true
Warrior Queen, all of these
terms aptly describe the re-
markable character of Queen
Nzingha of Angola.
Nzingha's rise to power oc-
curred during the early 17th
century in the kingdom of
Ndongo, which is now the
present day country of Angola,
in South West Africa. She
lived during a period when the
Atlantic slave trade was stead-
ily growing, a time marked by
the increased intensity of slave
trading and consolidation of
power by the Portuguese in her
region. Portugal had been a
presence in Angola since the
early 16th century.
Starting with the forts they
built along the coastline, the
Portuguese gradually ex-
panded their territory, as well
as their control of the slave
trade. They were able to do so
by forming alliances with vari-
ous local chiefs who supplied
them with slaves in exchange
for guns -and other material
items. One of these slave-
trading chiefs was the King of
Ndongo himself, Nzingha's
own brother.
Nzingha had strongly opposed
her brother's participation in
the slave trade. However, it
was not until the Portuguese
traders began to make heavier
demands on the King for
slaves, thereby reducing his
own profit from the trade, that
he decided to resist and de-
clare war. The war between
the Portuguese, and the
Ndongo people lasted for sev-
eral until the Portuguese
decided that a confer-
ence would be held for both
sides to negotiate an end to the
war. It was at this conference
that Nzingha would display
her immense pride, determina-
tion, and iron will, traits that
the Portuguese would be
forced to reckon with for the
next thirty years.
The conference was held in the
city of Luanda in 1622.
Nzingha, though not yet
Queen, was the most ablest
and uncompromising member
of the royal delegate sent to
represent the King. Despite the
alleged purpose of the confer-
ence, to negotiate peace, the
racist attitudes of the
Portuguese were in full dis-
play. The governor only pro-
vided chairs in the conference
room for himself and his
councilors, in an attempt to
force the future Queen to stand
humbly before his presence.
Nzingha and her people were
unfazed by the governor's arro-
gance. Her _ attendants
promptly rolled out the royal
carpet for Nzingha, and then
one of them went down on all
fours and formed himself into
a human throne for her to sit
on.
It was a move that spoke
volumes not only about the
fierce, and unbreakable spirit
that she possessed, but also
about the tremendous respect
and devotion that her people
had for her.
In 1623, after the death of her
brother, Nzingha became the
Queen of Ndongo.
The Portuguese had not re-
spected the peace treaty signed
at Luanda the year before, as
they had continued their slave
trading operations in Ndongo.
Her first major move as Queen
bo to deliver an ultimatum to
Portuguese, prema |
that the terms
Siem otutaraanes
declared. The Portuguese ig-
nored her warning and so in
that same year Nzingha went
to war with them and comman-
deered a series of devastating
strikes, defeating them in
many battles.
Nzingha was an_ incredibly
strong and charismatic woman.
She was dearly loved by the
people of Ndongo, able to rally
masses of them to listen to her
messages. A brave general,
she was known to personally
lead her troops into battle, and
she forbade her subjects to call
her "Queen" preferring the
masculine title of King. Yet
her aggressive traits were bal-
anced by her charming and
engaging personality, which
she used to her own advan-
tages when forming alliances
with other kingdoms.
So clever was the Queen that
she was able to take advantage
of the Dutch arrival in Angola
and form an alliance with them
against the Portuguese.
Certainly, the Dutch were not
there as liberators of the
Africans, they were merely
competing against Portugal for
a greater share of the slave
trade. Still, Nzingha was wise
enough to side with the for-
eigners to suit her own needs,
a tactic she would use later on
in her life by pretending to
adopt Christianity.
One of Nzingha's greatest acts
as Queen occurred in 1624
when she declared all territory
over which she had control to
be Free Country. All slaves
and reachi from any
region were free. This

From: Living a Life That
Matters, by...Harold S.
Kushner
m
Erich Fromm wrote a little
book entitled, "The Are of
Living," which he
distinguished between what
he called "mother love" and
ofather love"
(emphasizing that people of
either gender are capable of
both kinds of love.)
Mother love says: You are
bone and flesh of my flesh,
and I will always love you
no matter what. Nothing you
ever do or fail to do will
make me stop loving you.
Father love says: | will love
you if you earn my love and
respect, if you get good
grades, if you make the
teams, if you get into a good
college, and earn a good sal-
ary.
MESSAGE:
People need to hear the
message that they are good.
MISTAKES:
How do most of us handle
our mistakes? We blame oth-
ers; we blame our upbring-
ing, or rationalize what we
did, in an effort to reassure
ourselves of our essential
goodness,

ginning around age II.

WARRIOR QUEEN: continued from front page
Black Nationalist. By opening
her territory to anyone escap-
ing slavery. she transcended all
~ the various ethnic and cultural
ditferences of the people in the
Angolan region. She saw that
© the common enemy was the
Portuguese. who had been the
masterminds of the slave trade
~and its devastating effect on
~ her people for over one hun-
dred years. Nzingha was well
aware that the Portuguese used
Black soldiers to tight their
wars for them, and so she
undertook a carefully organ-
- ized attempt to infiltrate and
~ destroy this use of Black
soldiers by Europeans. She
had several groups of her men
wander back into Portuguese
territory, and enlist in military
service. Once her agents were
established. they were able to
convert whole companies of
men to rebel against the
Portuguese and join the cause
of the Queen. taking with them
the much needed gunsT and
ammunition.
The Portuguese were outraged
at this seemingly unbeatable
Black Queen who constantly
thwarted their efforts to con-
quer all of Angola. Their
tactics of divide and conquer
were ineffective against her
because there was so much
patriotism and fanatical devo-
tion towards her. They even
tried to discredit Nzingha by
formally declaring that she
was the illegitimate ruler of
Angola. and by oappointing�
their own ruler King Phillip.
In 1626, Nzingha's stronghold
in the city of Cuanza was
captured, and she was forced
to retreat from her country.
Her time away seemingly only
made her stronger. for in 1627
she returned to her country at
the head of a strong army and
recaptured Cuanza, sending
the puppet King Philip fleeing
for his life.
During her exile, Nzingha had
become the Queen of the
country of Matamba as well,
and so she returned as the
empress of two nations. more
determined than ever to liber-
ate her people. Despite several
losses, including the capture
and beheading of her sister by
the hands of the Portuguese.
Nzingha's spirit was never
broken.
She valiantly fought and held
off the Portuguese control of
Angola for over thirty years.
Finally in 1659, Nzingha, now
more than seventy-five years
old and perhaps weary from
the long years of struggle.
signed a peace treaty with the
Portuguese. The remaining
years of her life were spent
trying to reconstruct her na-
tions. seriously depleted by all
the years of conflict.
She devoted her efforts to
re-settling former slaves. and
developing an economy of free
men and women that could
succeed without the slave
trade.
Nzingha passed away in 1663
at the age of eighty. Sadly. the
massive expansion of the
Portuguese slave trade and
eventual conquest of Angola
followed her death. as none of
her successors possessed her
indomitable spirit. Though she
did not succeed in expelling
the Portuguese from her coun-
try, her historical legacy is of
great importance as she awak-
ened the spirit of nationalism
and Black unity among her
people in resistance to
European domination.
Her legend would serve as an
inspiration to the later resis-
tance and anti-colonial move-
ments that would " occur
throughout the West-Central
Atrican regions. To this day,
her memory lives on among
the oral traditions of the
Angolan people who have not
forgotten their Great Warrior

needs are met and I pay all
my debts because | know that
GOD is MY source.

tive relationships. I experi-
ence love wherever I go. The

and actions create the right
employment and income for
me. My work is challenging

wonderful people who appre-
ciate my work.

I trust the Spirit of God in
you to show you the way to
your highest good."

Two Dead, Seven
Hurt in Oklahoma
Shooting Rampage
Sunday, October 27, 2002
SALLISAW, Okla. " With his
grandfather's rifle in hand, 18-
year-old Daniel Fears is believed
to have gone on a shooting spree
that killed two and wounded
seven in the rolling hills of
eastern Oklahoma.
Officials are still trying to figure
out what set the quiet high school
senior off, but police believe
Fears became angry Saturday
evening when a neighbor scolded
him for driving recklessly in his
middle class neighborhood.
The shooting in rural eastern
~ Oklahoma mirrors the sniper
attacks that held the Washington
' area in terror for nearly a month,
and many in Sallisaw are won-
dering if Fears was mimicking
the sniper's attacks.
"I think it's too early to say," said
Oklahoma State Bureau of
Investigation Spokeswoman
Kym Koch. "It's way too early to
say it's a copy cat."
Community members of the
Sallisaw, a town with a popula-
tion of about 8,000 near the
Oklahoma-Arkansas border, are
still searching for answers the
morning after the shooting.
Fears, has been described.as a
polite and good student who
worked part-time at Wal-Mart
and always wore black. ==
"| think it's a copy cat thing,
said Camellia Conley, an em-
ployee at a Sallisaw hotel. "He's
been a rebel without a cause. He
was always a loner, and always
wore a black trench coat."
Fears is being held in a Sequoyah
County jail and faces two
charges of murder.
Police believe Fears was angered
~ by*a neighbor's complaint: and
broke. into his grandfather's
home, stole a rifle and then shot
and killed a neighbor who came
over to FearsT home to talk to
him about his driving. -
Neighbor Patsy Wells: and her
husband Elvie, knocked on the
door then turned to walk away
when no one answered. Officials
said the couple was shot at as
they turned to walk away.
Patsy Wells died and her hus-
band was critically wounded,
pleading at the scene for para-
medics to help his wife.
Police say Fears then focused on
a neighbor and his 2-year-old
daughter who were leaving their "
house the " Me
Greg Caughman and his daughter
both suffered pellet wounds. and
were taken to a nearby hospital.
They are expected to be released
Sunday.
Fears then headed east in his
white pickup truck on U.S. 64,
along the way killing a Fort
Smith, Ark., woman at a car
dealership who was shopping for
a new truck for her son.
A salesman, who dove between a
row of cars, was also shot twice,
Koch said.
Fears continued shooting his rifle
as he drove down the road,
lost control of his truck near a
police roadblock. As police cars
surrounded him, he threw out the
*
~his rifle and surrendered without
incident, Koch said.
Sow A Seed
oMaking It Happen For Your Leader�
| would like to admonish the men and women of
God today who serve their leaders faithfully. As I was
meditating on the things of God, the Holy Spirit began
to minister to me. He said, oJoy, if you make IT happen
for your leader, God will make IT happen for you.�
Those words illuminated in my spirit to the point
that I asked the Holy Spirit, oWhat do you mean if I
make it happen for my leader, God will make IT happen
for me?� The answer that | received truly opened my
eyes to the importance of serving the leader.
The Holy Spirit allowed me to know that you car
be no greater than the set man or woman that God has
placed over your life...A Pastor after GodTs own Heart. If you want to be great in
God, learn how to have the heart of a servant. What is a servant? In my own
terminology, a servant is one who sacrifices his/her time to make sure that everything
is in place and on time for their leader.
You may wonder, oHow does this apply to me?� So many times we have
dreams and visions that we esteem higher than the set vision of your church or
ministry. Yes, we all have dreams and goals that we seek to fulfill. Many times we
have adopted the belief that once | have fulfilled my goals, my dreams, and my
visions, I will then seek to fulfill that of my local assembly. This is not the divine
order of God. .
We as servants, must have the leaderTs vision fulfilled before we can see the
fulfillment of our own personal goals. Once you have the spirit of your leader, which
simply means the vision of your leader, you will immediately seek to find your place
or position. Our focus should be directed towards avenues of how I can assist my
leader in fulfilling or bringing the vision to fruition.
Once your leader has received the vision for the house from God, the leade
then writes the vision upon the tables of your heart. You are then held accountable
for the vision. After you have read the vision and sought God for your role, began
to run with it. Begin to run with the vision of the man or woman of God. Once you
begin to see it happening for your leader, because you are connected to your leader,
things will begin to happen for you
Decide to dedicate your time and energy towards fulfilling your leaderTs
vision. Become a replica of Naomi and Ruth. Wherever Naomi went, Ruth followed.
Ruth knew the importance of servitude and commitment. Because she dared to stay
connected with the woman of God; she was blessed with Boaz. Boaz can represent
that dream or that vision that God has deposited into your spirit. As you become
obedient and submissive to the will of God and to your leader: the blessings of God
shall overtake you. Luke 6:38 says, oGive, and it shall be given unto you, good
measure, pressed down, and shaken together. and running over, shall men give unto
your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal, it shall be measured to
you again.� Begin to give and sow into your Pastor abundantly and watch for the
increases that shall take place in your life.
Motto:
If you make it happen for your leader, God will make it happen for you.

MY WEEKLY READER
There are many of us who
remember the 'good old school
days' when "readinT, writinT.
'rithmetic" and My Weekly
Reader encompassed the
curriculum. No computer-
teaching---no special educa-
tion classes---no _" reading
groups---no on-line learning---
just plain old basics.
This year, Weekly Reader
(the "my" has been phased
out) celebrates its 100th annj-
versary. The old familiar
classroom publication which
has about 7 million subscrib-
ers and traces its roots back to
1902 when news paperman
Charles Palmer Davis joined
the school board in Agawam,
Massachusetts and decided to
start a newspaper to bring
current events into the class-
room. Over the past century,
the paper has covered virtually
all major national and interna-
tional events and stories.
It targets pre-kindergarten
through sixth-graders, but its
newer offshoot, Teen News-
week. Newsweek is designed
for middle-school students.
Weekly Reader has reached
and shaped children who went
on to help shape the world. To
help celebrate its centennial,
several famous persons were
asked to give testimonials on
its impact on them as children.
One responded, oIt kept us
focused on timely issues and
helped to shape our knowl-
edge and attitude toward im-
portant aspects of _ life."
Another commented, "It pro-
vided me with a ~window to
the worldT." Still another
remarked that the Weekly
Reader was the "high point of
the week."
Weekly Reader's mission has
always been to bring what's
happening new into the class-
room in a form that kids can
understand and teachers can
use to reinforce the curricu-
lum.

From the Hillsborough
community the in
Greenville area we find
the son of Mother Rosa
Weaver. Mother Weaver
raised her children to be
God loving citizens. Her
daughter sister Shirley
Weaver raised her chil-
dren in the same manner.
Shown above is her son
young bro. Weaver, who
is in a wheel chair. He
saved a young person
who was being attacked
by a dog. Young bro
Weaver rushed to the aid
while in his wheel chair
and got the dog off of
his neighbor. Hat's off to
Bro. Weaver.

Secretary of the State: "
North Carolina Elections News
Elaine F. Marshall
Secretary of the State
Press Release
October 22, 2002
Constitutional Amendment on
November Ballot
RALEIGH
When North Carolina voters go
to the polls on November 5, they
will find more than candidatesT
names on their ballots. They also
will be voting on whether to
make a small but significant
amendment to the Constitution
of North Carolina.
The 2001 General Assembly
approved a measure (Session
Law 2001-217) that will make a
technical correction in how the
Legislature transfers property to
the state Nature and Historic
Preserve, if approved by voters
this fall. The North Carolina
Constitution establishes a State
Nature and Historic Preserve as
a means to preserve park, recrea-
tional, and scenic areas, as well
as other natural and historic
resources. .
The proposed amendment to
Article XIV, Section 5 of the
North Carolina Constitution
would allow the General
Assembly to accept property
into the Preserve by enacting a
bill, rather than passing a joint
resolution. Under the present
constitutional arrangement, the
General Assembly must approve
a joint resolution to accept a
piece of property into the
Preserve. However, lawmakers
must then also pass a separate
legislative bill to codify and
make the resolution legally bind-
ing. The proposed change would
allow the General Assembly to
accept property into the Preserve
by approving bills that could
automatically become law after
passage. The proposed amend-
ment would not change three-
fifths majority vote required for
the GeneralT Asssenbly- a aueape
property into the Preserve,
NC Secretary of State Elaine F.
Marshall, ae
Constitutional Amendments
Publication Commission, says
the technical amendment would
help streamline the legislative
process. "This would shorten
and simplify the process of
transferring property into the
State Nature and historic
Preserve- a two-step process
would be made a single step
process," said Marshall. :So the
voters are asked in this matter if
they choose to cut red tape, or to
leave it as is."
Each county board of elections
office has been provided an
official explanation of the pro-
posed amendment that can be
made available to voters.
Also, for the first time, each
county will receive a copy of the
explanation of the amendment
translated into Braille for visu-
ally impaired voters.

Ex-Offender Voting
Rights
A vibrant democracy seeks electoral participation
by all members of a community and involves
citizens of all backgrounds.
Today, however, nearly 4 million citizens in the
United States are denied the franchise by virtue
of their status as ex-offenders. A starkly dispropor-
tionate number of minorities, particularly African
American males, are thus denied voting rights.
Nearly 14 percent of African American males are
denied the right to vote.
While different states set different rules for enfran-
chisement of ex-offenders (from Vermont and
Maine allowing individuals to vote while in prison,
to states like Florida, Alabama and Mississippi,
where ex-offenders are essentially disenfranchised
for life), overall, there is a crisis in this country.
We believe ex-offenders should have the right to
vote restored upon release from prison. Studies
show that one of the best indicators of whether an
individual will vote is whether their parents vote
- and children of ex-offenders should not be put
at an even greater disadvantage. State legislatures
should encourage ex-offenders to become as in-
volved in the fabric of community as possible and
thus, should restore voting rights and instill a
greater sense of social responsibility.
