NOT JUST ANOTHER TRUCKER! ... Mr. Curtis Cummings, Presi-
Marriott settles for $40 grand in
cornrow braided hairstyle dispute
By JESSE H. WALKER
A Black reservations agent at
the JW Mariott Hotel in
Washington, D.C. who was al-
most fired for refusing to un-
bra: her cornrow hairstyle has
received $40,000 in damages
froin Marriott Corp., settling a
discrimination complaint filed
with the D.C. Office of Human
Rights.
Marriott paid the money to
Pamela Mitchell late last
month, according to The Wash-
ington Times, which obtained a
copy of the settlement agree-
ment. The hotel corporation
also agreed to pay an additional
$16,000 in legal fees to Eric
Steele, an attorney for Mitchell.
oIt sends a signal that has to
be welcomed to the civil rights
community. When a_ corpor-
ation is held financially account-
able, we hope that has a chilling
effect on other corporations who
might engage in similar prac-
tices,� said Colleen O'Connor, a
spokeswoman for the American
Civil Liberties Union head-
Quarters offices here in New
York City.
~She (Mitchell) was
humiliated and part of the dam-
age assessment has to be the
duress she was put under,� said
OTConnor.
The four-page agreement ends
a controversy sparked in
December when Mitchell was
told to remove her cornrows, &
multi-braided hairstyle worn
primarily by Black women, or
face termination on Christmas
Eve. After Mitchell filed a com-
plaint with the Human Rights
The 65th Grand Conclave of the
Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc.,
convened in Dallas, Texas July
23-29, 1988. The theme for the
weekTs deliberations and ac-
tivities was ~oThe Family, educa-
tion, economics and citizenship
empowered by our cardinal prin-
ciplesTT"Manhood, Scholarship,
Perseverance and Uplift.
Sunday, July 24, 1988 was
declared ~~Salute to Historically
Black Colleges and Universities
Day.� The recognitions were
made to extol the historically
black colleges and universities
for their education of thousands
of Americans, including many
Omega members who have made
substantial contributions to the
betterment of mankind, to
treasure historically black col-
leges and universities that have
continually elevated thousands of
persons who otherwise would not
have received a post-secondary
education and to compliment
these institutions that sometimes
do not receive the admiration,
support, respect and recognition
which is due them for the tremen-
dous contributions they have
made to America and to the
world.
Dr. Talbert O. Shaw, president
of Shaw University, accepted a
plaque presented by the fraterni-
ty on behalf of Shaw University
which reads, in part, ~For signifi-
cant contributions to the educa-
tion of Black Americans"and to
the betterment of mankind 98,8
whole.� Nae
When asked about this signal
honor, Dr. Shaw said, ~The
Omega Psi Phi Fraternity was
the first fraternity founded on an
historically black college campus
and has been at the vanguard of
financial support for black higher
education. I accept this plaque
with sincere appreciation and
gratitude and dedicate myself to
the perpetuation of the goals of
this fraternity. I hope that other
Afro-American organizations will
continue this example set by the
Omega Psi Phi Fraternity.�
Is Sheriff Tyson senile?
By C. A. Dawson
The story begins when a jilted
lover whose ex-girlfriend is work-
ing at the Pitt County Sheriff's
Department calls the sheriff's
department and wants to speak to
no one but Sheriff Ralph Tyson.
He explains to Sheriff Tyson that
one of his married deputies is in
bed with his dispatcher.
The sheriff then asks this man
to show him to the home of the
og oe

and the informant arrive at the

nothing. Upon leaving the
premises, the informant breaks
out the young ladyTs car window
while the sheriff watches. The
young lady goes to take out a

WETVE GOT WHAT YOU NEED . . . When it comes to cars at Joe
« Cullipher Subaru, Brother Freddie White, left, who is the service
manager; and new car salesman John Deaver can fix you up with
the right kind of car and the right kind of deal with the right kind
of service when you need it. Bailey Tucker (not pictured) can tell that
these brothers are right ON! time when is comes to having a fresh
Office, Marriott told her she
could keep her part-time job and
reversed its anti-braid policy.
In April, however, the D.C.
agency .uled that there was
cause to believe that Marriott
had unlawfully discriminated
against Mitchell and other
female employees by refusing to
let them wear cornrows. The rul-
ing was believed to be the first
in the nation to deal with the
issue of whether anti-cornrow
policies are discriminatory.
In exchange for receiving the
monetary damages, Mitchell
has agreed to withdraw the dis-
crimination complaint and
refrain from pushing the issue
in court.
Under the settlement, Mar-
riott also is required to clarify
to all employees at the JW Mar-
riott the policy of allowing corn-
rows by posting notices on bul-
letin boards and stuffing
notices in payroll checks.
Hyatt Hotels & Resorts also
is embroiled in controversy over
cornrows. In May, the U.S.
Equal Employment Oppor-
tunity Commission ruled that
Hyatt discriminated against
Black women by carrying out
such a policy, a policy the Hyatt
hotel chain reversed last fall.
The EEOC ruling stemmed
from a complaint filed by Chery]
Tatum and Cheryl B. Parahoo,
two former employees at the
Hyatt Regency Crystal City
who were told to remove their
cornrows or wear a wig. A
settlement conference between
Hyatt and the former em-
ployees is scheduled later this
month, according to their law-
yer.

The Black Preachers and
the Black Church must
play their rightful roles
By Jim Rouse
- IfBlack America is to be saved,
the Black Preachers and the Black
Church will have to assume their
rightful roles.
The gospel of right and wrong
must be preached and lived from
the pulpit. We live in an era of
~~Monkey see, monkey do.�
The Black Preacher must speak
out against the moral decay of our
society. They must tear down the
mistaken notion that anything
goes. We must as Church people
proclaim the truth and not deny
that we need to be revived and
turn back to God in fullness and
rededication.
We must be willing to let Black
folks understand that there is no
oBiglTs� orno� little youTs� inthe
~oi
e i
are shown at a y wy gatherin
year's election. Blac
are to move ahead into the next century,
concerned,
i
sight of God for out of one blood we
were all created.
ItTs amazing that we see wis-
dom every day and still do not
understand what is happening in
this life. Simply stated no man is
above or beneath another man.
We all come into the world with
nothing and we will take nothing
with us.
Believe it or not, but Ihave never
seen a Brinks Truck following a
hearse to a cemetery.
Black folks remember when you
respect yourselves and eachother;
letTs teach our children to respect
authority. Let us stop being in-
struments of disharmony and
become instruments of peace.
Let us build up, not tear down,
let us become real neighbors and
watch out for each other.
Black Preachers you have the
power or so you say that youhave,
so use it to chase the dope pushers
out of the Black community.
Protect our children from the
pitfalls that are waiting to destroy
them by educating the parents
and the congregation.
Black church, become a power
house of prayer. Do not be
ashamed to call a spade. Teach
Black parents to let their children
be children. Stop dressing eight,
nine and ten year olds as if they
were adults.
Give your girls dolls to play with
that they can put on a shelf.
We cannot afford for our little
girls to continue to have babies
before wisdom. We must train our
sons that they are just as respon-
sible for a new life coming as the
girlthatthey have violated. Speak
out against these old men that prey
on our youth. It is our business,
because we are our brothersT

Letter to the Editor
To the editor:
Your Sunday editorial comment titled ~~Vigilance� may have been an accu-
rate assessment given from the point of view of a non-participating third par-
ty. But the idea at the Pitt County Board of Elections monitoring itself isnTt
practical from the standpoint of those of us who worked hard to win an elec-
tion only to have its results nullified by sloppy and careless administrative
procedures. Federal observers during the Oct. 11 runoff would ensure some
degree of added trust in the process. What harm could that do� And, besides,
why should voters put their total trust in our board after all that has been
revealed about its handling of the previous election?
The comments in the editorial which discount the possibility of racial bias
as a/factor in the electoral process are predictable and difficult to refute.
Racial bias, by its very nature is extremely hard to prove, even when clearly
recognized.
In your previous editorials, support for a new election was made clear. |
would have thought that any measures intended to ensure fairness in the new
election, including federal observers, would attract your support as well.
From the perspective of a participant, believe me, if ever federal observers
were needed to help restore faith in local balloting, now is the time.

It's important too for the per-

well as preach them. Regular
hours set a good example for ev-
eryone. Employees feel better
Lateness and absenteeism are
twoofindustryTs biggest problems.
Anyone who knows a sure cure
for them could sell the secret and
retire in luxury.
ItTs hard enough to schedule
work efficiently even when every-
one shows up. And when people
are unexpectedly late or absent,
changes are usually costly and in-
efficient. ,
There is. of course, no final so-
lution. Like death and taxes, late-
ness and absenteeism will always
be with us. Nevertheless, there are
things a supervisor can do to mini-
mize the problem.
One is to be sure, through per-
about complying when they know
that whatTs good for the gander is
good for the goose, too.
Also, take more time to appre-
ciate the work people do when they
are not absent. Show them how
much you count on them. People
who feel needed and wanted, who
know that their presence on the
job is important, are less apt to be
late or absent.
If excessive lateness or absen-
teeism continues, probe for deeper
reasons. Is the job tooboring? Has
it lost its challenge? If so, what
can you do to remedy the situ-
ation?
You will never solve these prob-
lems completely. You can, how-
ever, develop a constructive ap-
proach that holds them to a mini-
mum.
oIt is one of the most beautiful
compensations of this life that no
man can sincerely try to help
another without helping himself�.

How do you motivate people to
produce, to do a better job?
The answer, say motivational
experts, is by fulfilling these five
needs:

When You ask people to do

why. ItTs well worth the time and
effort.
ItTs very easy for a busy person
to fall into the habit of simply tell-
ing people to do things without
further explanation. It seems like
the quickest and easiest way to get
things done.
But itTs rarely the best way.
When youask someone to dosome-

ItTs excellent habit with a lot of
good side effects.
Explaining why you want some-
thing done automatically removes
the curse of ~~bossinessTT. When
thereTs a good reason why some-

in the position of simply making a

Explaining the reason for your

put them ina position to make sug-

the better results will be.
Sure. there are times when the

Stantonsburg Road near Farm-
ville is on his way tobeceming 8
full fledge Green et Martial
_ Arts Expert.
Of the seven stages in Karate,
Antwoine is at stage four shortly
after a year of practicing. In his
home and at the Bill McDonald
Karate Studio on Dickinson
Avenue, there are numerous
trophies of all sizes that show
where he has won in competi-
tions. But wait, thereTs more! !
When Antwoine is not sparring
with an opponent, heTs on the
PrincipalTs List at Bruce
_ Falkland Elementary School; or
maybe he is studying his favorite
subjects, math and scienceT or
maybe heTs trying to accomplish
his goal of becoming a profes-
player. Then if
g any of the above,
ly find him at
his his. pan lessons or in his
bedroom listening to his favorite
singer, L.L. Cool Jay or some
other rap
wiht his father,
songs.
After talking
Bro, James Britt, Jr., you kindaT
get the feeling that he is proud of }
his son. Bro. Britt says he is
careful not to put too much
pressure on Antwoine, but notes
that it is Antwoine who is very
bright and is not afraid to venture
out and try new things. He says
is he fails at something he tries,
heTll just keep trying until he
succeeds.
Sherrie and Blackie, Ant-
woineTs two Dobverman Pinchers
are also proud of him and so are
we at the Minority Voice. Keep up
the good work, Antwoine. (And

Proclomation of Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle-cell disease is an inher-
ited blood disorder that causes
great suffering and economic
strain, particularly among Black
Americans. Blood cells affected
by the disease assume a sickle
shape, causing lifelong anemia and
debilitation. Complications may
include pain, infections, and
chronic disability.
One out. of every 294 non-white
children born in North Carolina
has sickle cell disease, while one
out of every ten carries the sickle
cell trait.
While no cure for this disease
exists, treatment is available to
help those with sickle cell disease
lead more productive and reward-
ing lives. The North Carolina

Even if you donTt pay much at-
tention to politics, the long and
complicated election process has
taken place in Pitt CountyTs race
for Seat A of the County Commis-
sion is something that youTve
heard about by now.
With all the run-offs, recounts,
hearings, and news stories; itTs
easy to lose sight on what the
race for Seat A is all about. Some
people believe that the race is
about unfair decisions by the
county election officials that
caused D.D. Garrett not to be
declared the winner of the Seat.
Others see it as a contest for
power on the Commission bet-
ween residents of North West
Greenville and those who live in
Northern Pitt County, including
Bethel. The fact is: Seat A was
recently created in an agreement
between Pitt County and the
Federal Government intended to
increase chances for blacks in
Airport expansion plan
impacts Black Community
The proposed expansion of the
Pitt-Greenville Airport has
developed into the kind of pro-
blem that black citizens here
have not often faced. Those living
beneath the flight paths near the
airport would be most directly ef-
fected by the proposed expan-
sion. Around the nation issues
about the environment have col-
lided with concern about
economic growth.
The conflict between quality-of-
life and progress will now cause
blacks in Pitt County to deal with
an issue that has now come close

to home. Planes have ascended
and descended over highly
populated black neighborhoods
for many years - ask anyone who
lives in Riverdale. Lately, the
number of flights have been in-
creasing and the planes are
somewhat bigger. Residents liv-
ing in the area recognize the
negative environmental impact
of living near an expanded air-
port. Increased noise and the
ever present possibility of a crash
are examples of the environmen-
tal concerns that residents face.
As if the environmental concerns
arenTt enough to be concerned
with, the growth and progress
side of the controversy are equal-
ly related to the black residents
of neighborhoods near the air-
port. Within some of these
neighborhoods are many of the
unemployed and underemployed
in our city. The low wage and
seasoned job markets have forc-
ed many to earn salaries that
donTt support a decent standard
of living. Only an expanded job
market in the area will reverse
that trend. Airport expansion
supporters believe that if Green-
ville is to develop its growth
potential, a bigger airport with
bigger planes will be needed.
Ready or not, people who live
