Shaw University receives Omega Psi Phi Fraternity award 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. “It 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 O’Connor. 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 week’s deliberations and ac- tivities was ‘“The Family, educa- tion, economics and citizenship empowered by our cardinal prin- ciples’’—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 i CONCERNED . ...

The sheriff and the informant arrive at the young lady’s home but they find nothing. Upon leaving the premises, the informant breaks out the young lady’s car window while the sheriff watches. The young lady goes to take out a warrant but is fired from the department. Unbelieveable, but a true story. i ih WE’VE 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. Warren attends Legislative Study Committee meeting Representative Ed N. Warren attended the Legislative Study Committee meeting on Tourism’s Growth and Effect in Boone. The topics discussed were: 1. The possibility of establishing regional director positions within the Division of Travel and Tourism to serve as liaisons between the state and local chambers, travel bureaus, and tourism development authorities. 2. The need for additional funds to support North Carolina state parks. 3. The feasibility of creating permanent tours within various regions of the state, such as a governor’s tour of the east to highlight homes of former North Carolina governors. 4. The need for more welcome centers in highly traveled areas. 5. The importance of im- provements to North Carolina’s highways, airports, ferries and bridges. Among those who made presentations to the committee were Hugh Morton, Sr., owner of Grandfathter Mountain, Robert Sand, Vice-chancellor of Development at Appalachian State University, and Tony Seamon, Chairman of the State Travel Council.

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 “Bigl’s” orno” little you’s” 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. It’s 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; let’s 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 brothers’ keeper, 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 isn’t 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.

When they are late or ab- sent, they’re letting the others | down. It's important too for the per- son who supervises others to prac- tice promptness and regularity as well as preach them. Regular hours set a good example for ev- eryone. Employees feel better Lateness and absenteeism are twoofindustry’s biggest problems. Anyone who knows a sure cure for them could sell the secret and retire in luxury. It’s 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 what’s 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. “It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself”.

This is imply the need to be treated as an indi- vidual, as a human being, not a statistic. When You ask people to do something, be sure to also tell them why. It’s well worth the time and effort. It’s 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 it’s rarely the best way. When youask someone to dosome- thing, take time to explain why. It’s excellent habit with a lot of good side effects. Explaining why you want some- thing done automatically removes the curse of ‘‘bossiness’’. When there’s a good reason why some- thing ought to be done, it puts you in the position of simply making a logical, reasonable request. It completely removes the bad taste that comes from’ ordering people around’. When you explain why, you also lessen the chance of error. People whounderstand why they’re doing something are less apttofoulitup. that the action is no longer re- - quired, they'll have sense enough they'll have no choice but to go blindly ahead doing what you told them to, Explaining the reason for your request is a compliment to the people you’ve asked to carry it out, It. shows that you think it’s important that they..should under- stand what they're doing and be able to use their heads. You also put them ina position to make sug- gestions, and these can be very helpful. People aren’t robots or push buttons. The more you can trust them like intelligent human beings with good brains in their heads, the better results will be. Sure. there are times when the reason is so obvious to everyone that itisn’t worth mentioning. And there are also times of emergency when people have to do what they are told and pronto! But the gen- eral rule still stands: ‘When you ask someone to do something, explain why”’. “God gave us two ears but only one mouth. Some people say that’s because he wanted us to spend twice as much time listening as talking. Others claim it’s because he knew listening was twice as hard as talking. “Team spirit is what gives so many companies an edge over their competitors”.George L.

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, there’s more! ! When Antwoine is not sparring with an opponent, he’s on the Principal’s List at Bruce _ Falkland Elementary School; or maybe he is studying his favorite subjects, math and science’ or maybe he’s 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 kinda’ 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, he’ll just keep trying until he succeeds. Sherrie and Blackie, Ant- woine’s two Dobverman Pinchers are also proud of him and so are we at the Minority Voice. Keep up the good work, Antwoine. (And Mr. and Mrs. Britt.)

BY JIM ROUSE Even if you don’t pay much at- tention to politics, the long and complicated election process has taken place in Pitt County’s race for Seat A of the County Commis- sion is something that you’ve heard about by now. With all the run-offs, recounts, hearings, and news stories; it’s 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 SHAWN’S — NO. 1 & NO. 2 KEARNEY PARK/BROAD STREETS Hamburgers Cheeseburgers Chitterling Tray ...

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 aren’t 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 don’t 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 in the vicinity of the Pitt- Greenville Airport will be measuring the impact of the deci- sion to expand or not to expand the airport. Either way will affect the community. Warren attends tourism growth meeting Representative Ed Warren at- tended the Legislative Study Committee Meeting on Tourism’s Growth and Effect in Boone. The topics discussed were: 1. The possibility of establishing regional director positions within the Division of Travel and Tourism to serve as liaisons between the state and local chambers, travel bureaus, and tourism development authorities. 2. The need for additional funds to support North Carolina State Parks. 3. The feasibility of creating permanent tours within various regions of the state, such as a 4 Governor’s Tour of the east to highlight homes of former North Carolina governors. 4. The need for more welcome centers in highly traveled areas. 5. The importance of im- provements to North Carolina’s highways, airports, ferries, and bridges. Among those who made presentations to the committee were Hugh Morton, Sr., owner of Grandfather Mountain, Robert Snead, Vice Chancellor of Development at Appalachian State University, and Tony Seamon, Chairman of the State Travel Council. Representative Warren is chairman of the House Commit- tee on Tourism and Growth. \ —a ke |! « i l/, Al | J SERVICES RENDERED Willing to Make Deliveries to Raleigh on Tuesdays & Thursdays.
