Little Meechie was in an early school

age learning program that he enjoyed

very much, especially his teacher. As

an only child, he was extremely excited

when he was told he was getting a baby

brother or sister.

Every morning he would talk with his

teacher about the baby coming. One

day he asked his mother how much

longer will it take before the baby

comes. At that point, his mother felt

the baby move and told him to touch her stomach to feel the baby

kicking. Little Meechie did so and immediately went to his room.

The next morning he had nothing to say to the teacher. He appeared

to be sad or just not feeling well so, the teacher asked him, “Little

Meechie, how is your baby brother or sister coming along?” Little

Meechie, with tears rolling down his face said, “It’s not coming, my

mother ate it.”

The civil rights move-

ment in the United States

during the late 1950s and

1960s was the political,

legal, and social struggle

to gain full citizenship

rights for black Americans

and to achieve racial

equality. Individuals and

civil rights organizations

challenged segregation

and discrimination using a

variety of activities,

including protest marches,

boycotts, and refusal to

abide by segregation laws.

On August 28, 1963,

more than 250,000 demon-

strators descended upon

the nation’s capital to par-

ticipate in the “March on

Washington for Jobs and

Freedom.” Not only was it

the largest demonstration

for human rights in United

States history, but it also

occasioned a rare display

of unity among the various

civil rights organizations.

The event began with a

rally at the Washington

Monument featuring sev-

eral celebrities and musi-

cians. Participants then

marched the mile-long

National Mall to the

Memorial. The three-hour

long program at the

Lincoln Memorial includ-

ed speeches from promi-

nent civil rights and reli-

gious leaders. The day

ended with a meeting

between the march leaders

and President John F.

Kennedy at the White

House.

The idea for the 1963

March on Washington was

envisioned by A. Philip

Randolph, a Jacksonville,

Florida native, and a long-

time civil rights activist

dedicated to improving the

economic condition of

black Americans. When

Randolph first proposed

the march in late 1962, he

received little response

from other civil rights

leaders. He knew that

cooperation would be dif-

ficult because each had his

own agenda for the civil

rights movement, and the

leaders competed for fund-

ing and press coverage.

Success of the March on

Washington would depend

on the involvement of the

so-called “Big Six”—

Randolph and the heads of

the five major civil rights

organizations: Roy

Wilkins of the National

Association for the

Advancement of Colored

People (NAACP);

Whitney Young, Jr., of the

National Urban League;

Rev. Martin Luther King,

Jr., of the Southern

Christian Leadership

Conference (SCLC);

James Farmer of the

Conference of Racial

Equality (CORE); and

John Lewis of the Student

Nonviolent Coordinating

Committee (SNCC).

The details and organiza-

tion of the march were

handled by Bayard Rustin,

Randolph’s trusted associ-

ate. Rustin was a veteran

activist with extensive

experience in putting

together mass protest.

With only two months to

plan, Rustin established

his headquarters in

Harlem, NY, with a small-

er office in Washington.

He and his core staff of

200 volunteers quickly put

together the largest peace-

ful demonstration in U.S.

history.

Starting Off the School Year as a Champion

Why is it important to be at the top of your

game to start a new school year? The number

one reason why it is imperative to start a new

school year at the top of your game is so you can

finish strong at the end of the year. If you walk

in your first day of school prepared, focused,

and ready to work you will end your school year

as a champion. As a student, adults always tell

you education is the key to your future. Indeed it

is, performing well in school can unlock a world of possibilities.

However, before you can reach the highest of your goals, you must finish

school as a champion. Here are ten of my personal tips on how to start the

school year strong and end as a champion.

1. Get a good night’s rest.

2. Eat a good healthy breakfast in the morning.

3. Say a small prayer before you start your day and ask God to bless

you as you embark on a new journey.

4. Wear one of your best outfits, so you can feel confident and prepared

for a victory.

5. Before walking into the school doors, remind yourself how special

you are.

6. Walk into class with a positive attitude.

7. Find a seat in the front of the classroom, so your teacher will know

that you are focused and ready to receive knowledge.

8. Meet at least three new people in your class to see if you have any-

thing in common.

9. Pay attention when the teacher is giving you all class rules and pro-

cedures.

10. End your day with a conversation with your parent or guardian

about your action plan for this school year.

Stay tuned for Kicking Back with Kelsey…..

Remember the March on Washington? August 28, 1963. Tens of thousands of activists on

the National Mall. A preacher's son from Atlanta talking about his dream for the country,

said Mr. Ben Jealous of the NAACP.

We don't need a history lesson. Even if we weren't at the March itself - even for those like

me, who were not yet born - Dr. King's words are etched into our minds as deeply as they are

inscribed in stone at the base of his memorial. The preacher's son has taken his rightful place

in the pantheon of national heroes.

We don't need to watch a rerun of that fateful day. We need a sequel.

On Saturday, August 24th, the NAACP is co-hosting a sequel to the March on Washington for

Jobs and Justice: the 2013 March on Washington. The march begins at 8:00 am, at the steps

of the Lincoln Memorial. Join us.

If this year has shown us anything, it's that the work of the 1963 march is not yet finished.

Texas and South Carolina are sprinting forward with voter ID after the Supreme Court gutted

the Voting Rights Act. African American unemployment has flat lined. Our children are

gunned down each and every day in senseless acts of violence. Trayvon Martin lies in the

ground after one such senseless act.

At the same time, our culture of civic engagement is experiencing a renaissance. In the past

month, hundreds of cities held vigils and rallies to protest the Zimmerman verdict. The nation

is having a serious conversation about racial profiling for the first time since 9/11. In North

Carolina, Moral Mondays has grown larger with each passing week. On this fiftieth anniver-

sary of the March on Washington, we should celebrate our history, but it's more important

that we never stop making history. Meet us at the Lincoln Memorial. Join us on August

24th.

Talk of the Town! by Frances Bradley / Photos by Volume Burks

E kaabo (eh-kah-bow). Welcome.

Charlotte Dwight StewartSeptember 28, 1922-August 14, 2013

lady n. A well-mannered and considerate woman with high standards of proper behavior.

A lady. Gracious. Sophisticated. Charming.

Charlotte Dwight Stewart personified all the words that simply describe a lady. She always had a pleasant smile

and kind things to say. She enjoyed attending social events, which is why she was perfect as social columnist for

The Florida Star from 1980 to 2002. Clara McLaughlin, The Florida Star’s publisher, says when she bought the

paper Charlotte told her that she would continue writing the column until she was eighty! True to her word, she

retired in 2002 handing over the pen to the late Betty Asque Davis, who passed the pen to me.

I don’t remember when I last saw Charlotte. It may have been at Jazzland Café, a special evening when sons

Michael and Dennis and daughter-in-law Linda brought her to a performance of Longineu Parsons and Nat Adderly

Jr. last November. She was like a queen in audience with her subjects as person after person stopped by to speak or

give hugs and kisses during intermission. I always told her, “I want to be like you when I grow up!”

Charlotte Christine Dwight was born in Jacksonville on September 28, 1922 to David H. Dwight Sr. and wife

Florida Rebecca. She attended local schools, graduating from Boylan Haven School for Girls in 1939.

In 1943, she graduated from the former Florida Agricultural and Mechanical College (FAMC, which would be-

come FAMU) with the bachelor of science degree. She later completed educational certifications from Northwestern

University and University of Colorado.

For thirty-seven years, Charlotte Stewart worked for the Duval County Public Schools as a physical education

teacher and guidance counselor. After retirement she continued in the field of education working as a

teacher and counselor in Adult Services for Florida Junior College, now Florida State College at Jack-

sonville.

Her career accomplishments also included working as a Congressional Aide to Congresswoman Cor-

rine Brown (1996 – 1998) and an outside sales travel counselor with American Express Travel.

Charlotte was a dedicated steward of the African American community and gave back in many ways:

- Chaired many programs involving African American youth as a member of the Arts Assembly of Jack-

sonville, predecessor to today’s Cultural Council of Jacksonville, Inc.

- Member of the cosmetology section of the Florida Professional Regulations Board.

- Served as a member of the American Lung Association in Florida, Jacksonville

- Founder of the David H. Dwight Sr. Memorial Committee for Scouting

- Member of the Circle of Three, with Camilla Thompson and the late Dr. Hortense Gray, who researched

and developed a slide presentation of the history of African Americans in Jacksonville. The group pre-

sented “An Oral Black History of Jacksonville from 1925-1959” to organizations throughout the city.

- As a devoted member of Historic Mt. Zion A.M.E. Church, she served in many leadership positions,

including Trustee

She was the recipient of numerous awards and certificates from organizations such as Bethel Baptist

Institutional Church, United Negro College Fund, Baker Correctional Institution, University of North

Florida, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, and the J.P. Small Foundation Scholarship Hall of Fame.

Her social activities included membership in the Smart Set and Entre Nous Bridge Clubs

and Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated.

Charlotte Stewart was a devoted wife of the late Dennis Stewart Sr. She enjoyed a close

relationship with her sons, Dennis Stewart Jr. (Linda) and Michael D. Stewart. She will be

remembered tenderly by daughter-in-law Lydia Stewart; grandchildren Marcus, Patrick,

Maya, Eros, and Cherub Stewart; great-grandchildren Khari, Amani, Noah, Alexis, and Zaria;

siblings Lydia Wooden and David H. Dwight Jr. (Bettye); beloved friend Iona King; and ex-

tended family.

The family will receive friends from 5 p.m. – 7 p.m. on Friday, August 23, 2013 at Historic

Mt. Zion AME Church, 201 E. Beaver St., Jacksonville, Florida 32202.

Funeral services will be held at Historic Mt. Zion at 1 p.m. on Saturday, August 24 under

the direction of Hillman-Pratt & Walton Funeral Home, 525 W. Beaver St., (904) 354-1651.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Charlotte Stewart’s memory

to the building fund of Historic Mt. Zion AME Church.

While Charlotte’s presence will be missed, our fond memories of her will live forever.

Back to School Safety!

Fall is just around the corner and so is the time for children across the coun-

try to start going back to school. The first week of school may produce heavy

pedestrian traffic as well as vehicular traffic.

Drivers should be mindful of the following:

• Many students will be walking to school along the county’s roadways

• Expect heavy traffic back-ups in school zones

• Parents should have children ride school busses when bus routes are avail-

able – alleviating unnecessary traffic in school zones

• Motorists should avoid school zones if at all possible

• Be patient and drive carefully

• The first few weeks of school are always extra busy so leave yourself plenty

of time to travel

• Reduce or eliminate any distractions inside your car so you can concentrate

on the

road and your surroundings

• Put down the phone

• Do not text and drive

• Adults who drive children to school should leave early to avoid the rush.

• Vehicles must stop for all school buses when the stop sign is out and lights

are flashing. This is true even if the bus is on the opposite side of the street

unless a median more than four feet wide divides the road.

• Teach children to catch the eye of drivers when walking in front of a school

bus.

• Always drive slowly in school zones and pay close attention to crossing

guards.

What to do with your children:

• Plan a safe route for your children to take to school and walk it with your

child so you will know that they are comfortable with it. Also plan an alter-

nate route in case it should become necessary.

• Whenever possible, it's best to walk with other children.

• Be sure that your children know their address, phone number, and a work

number for Mom or Dad. Also be sure the child knows how and when to

use 911.

• If your child will be home alone after school, make sure that he calls you

or a designated contact person as soon as they arrive home.

• Make sure your children are comfortable talking to you about anything

that makes them feel uneasy or uncomfortable while away from home such

as persons acting suspicious on their way to and from school or if they feel

bullied by other children.

• Teach your children that it is okay to say "no." Tell them to trust their in-

stincts.

Man Tries to Rob Gas Station with Fake Gun and

Fails to Open Cash Register

At approximately 9:43 p.m., officers re-

sponded to a report of a robbery at a gas station.

Investigation revealed that a male subject had

come into the business, attempted to cover his

face with a yellow t-shirt, and had demanded

money from the clerk. The suspect pointed with

a hand covered by a hat at first and then pulled

out what was later discovered to be cardboard

covered in tin foil, and pointed it like a gun at

the clerk. The suspect struggled to open the cash register and ended

up taking a donation can containing change from the counter. He

then fled on a bicycle. No one was injured in the incident.

The suspect, identified as 41-year-old Timothy E. Foster was

located in the shed of a local residence. He was taken into custody

by patrol officers and a K-9 dog.

Foster was charged with charged with strong arm robbery.

Timothy Foster

Inmates Try to Smuggle Heroine

Through Mail

30-year-old inmate

David Michael Gavin was

being prepared for trans-

port and transfer to an-

other jail. Investigators

say detention officers

began to grow suspicious

when Gavin began to ask

every officer and jail em-

ployee he saw or passed

to help him get his mail.

Mail room clerks were

asked to examine Gavin’s

mail more closely. Four

pieces of stamped mail

were initially found ad-

dressed to Gavin and

closer examination of the

pieces revealed small

square pieces of orange

paper concealed behind

each of the postage

stamps.

The contents of the en-

velopes were provided to

the inmate for his jail

transport and detectives

retained the envelope to

begin their investigation so they can iden-

tify the substance behind the stamps.

Through their subsequent investiga-

tion, detectives discovered additional pieces

of mail addressed to Gavin, as well as other

pieces of mail addressed to 30-year-old in-

mate Jermonte Rushing, which had the same

type of orange paper concealed behind the

stamps and appeared to have similar hand-

writing to the letters addressed to Gavin.

Research and testing of the “orange

paper” determined the substance to be sub-

oxone or “heroin in a breath strip.” Detec-

tives further described the substance to be

an opiate in the form of a sublingual film.

The investigation further revealed

that Gavin recruited his cell mate Rushing

to have the mail sent to him in exchange for

payment and that the two sold/distributed

the contraband to other inmates at the jail.

Investigators say that each stamps was sold

for $20 and that each stamp was five dosage

units if cut into five individual strips.

Through their investigation, detec-

tives were able to identify 29-year-old Kait-

lyn Pergola as the source of supply of

suboxone to Gavin and Rushing. Detectives

say she used two fictitious return addresses

that were later connected to her. Police also

say Pergola is Gavin’s girlfriend.

Pergola was arrested and during her

interview with detectives, Pergola admitted

to the crime. She was taken to jail without

further incident.

Gavin and Rushing were both

charged with introduction/possession of

contraband in a county detention facility.

Pergola was charged with two counts of in-

troduction/possession of contraband in a

county detention facility and violation of

probation.

Since the investigation began on Au-

gust 1, 2013, detectives intercepted a total

of 11 pieces of mail containing the con-

Man Mistakenly Pulls Out Knife on

Officer

A man was ar-

rested after pulling out

a knife on an offi-cer

outside a court-

house.

Investigation re-

vealed that the suspect,

identified as 56-year-

old Larry Jackson, had

been walking along a sidewalk right next to

a courthouse. An officer had been walking

in the same direction, directly behind Jack-

son, as he headed towards the parking

garage. While walking, Jackson suddenly

turned around towards the officer who was

not in uniform nor on duty at the time. Jack-

son dropped a green towel that had con-

cealed his knife and took an aggressive

stance towards the officer with the knife in

his right hand. Jackson yelled, "What?!" at

the officer, who then identified himself as

law enforcement and drew his firearm. At

that point, Jackson dropped his knife and

complied with the officer’s orders and other

officers who arrived on scene.

Records show that Jackson has been

in and out of jail for the last 10 years for

charges including burglary, grand theft, and

petty theft.

Jackson was arrested and charged

with one count of aggravated assault with a

deadly weapon without intent to kill. He is

being held on $5,000 bond.

PD Office Assists Local Students withBack to School Efforts

Jacksonville, Fl (August 16, 2013): As the 2013 school year starts, students from Clay and Duval counties will benefit from the dedicated efforts provided

by the employees of the Office of Public Defender Matt Shirk. Over the past few weeks, attorneys and support staff from the office have participated in

multiple school supply drives and an educational program, all in the interest of improving the lives of public school children.

Each summer, the PD Office organizes a school supply drive to benefit children in homeless families called ‘Stuff the Bus for Sulzbacher.’ Adding to the tra-

dition, the office also collected gently used children’s clothing. On Wednesday (8/14) APD Melina Buncome, Legal Assistant Rhonda Patrick and Chief

APD Refik Eler delivered several boxes of supplies to the Sulzbacher Center (right). This year, the Clay County office carried on the tradition of holding

school supply drive to benefit underprivileged students at C.E. Bennett Elementary School in Green Cove Springs. Legal Assistant Beth Frill delivered the

dozens school supplies collected by the Clay County staff. The PD Office, along with multiple other organizations, is also participating in the State Attorney’s

Office: Back to School Event by colleting and donating school supplies to benefit local families in the Juvenile Diversion Program.

In an effort to promote a better understanding of how school aged children are affected by the legal system, Juvenile Director Rob Mason and APD Courtney

Drew (pictured, left) educated personnel at Duval County Public Schools on collateral consequences of juvenile arrests.

More than 50 officers from the Duval County School Police Department participated in the hour long forum. The duo

explained to officers that when a young person is charged criminally, he or she will likely face serious complications

with future financial aid needs, the ability to obtain a drivers license, acceptance to college and immigration status among

other things.

Suns Take Two Games

From Barons, Leave For

Road

Miles College Establishes Golf Program in 2013

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.

— The Jacksonville Suns

(32-21, 67-54) finished

off their five-game series

against the Birmingham

Barons (27-28, 71-54)

with a walk-off hit in the

tenth inning of game four,

followed by a 7-1 rain-

shortened victory in the

series finale at Bragan

Field.

Before playing the fifth

and final game of the

series, the Suns and

Barons needed to finish a

game suspended in

Saturday’s early morning

hours due to league cur-

few. Scoreless into the

tenth inning, Jacksonville

earned a series victory

when Austin Barnes sin-

gled home Michael Main

with the winning run.

The 1-0 Suns win pro-

pelled Jacksonville into

the finale, where left-han-

der Andrew Heaney sur-

rendered only a solo

home run while the Suns

offense exploded.

Jacksonville, down 1-0,

took the lead in the bot-

tom half of the first

inning on Derek

Dietrich’s three-run home

run and never relin-

quished the advantage.

Barnes’ RBI single made

it a 4-1 Suns lead in the

second, and the home

squad plated three more

runs in the third to finish

off the night’s scoring.

Heaney, meanwhile,

struck out four batters

over five innings, while

allowing just two hits.

After the left-hander

retired Keenyn Walker

for the final out in the

fifth, the game was sent

into a rain delay and ulti-

mately called final once

the weather did not let up.

The Suns now head out

on the road for an 11-

game, ten day road trip in

Chattanooga and

Montgomery. The trip

begins against the

Lookouts on Sunday,

with right-hander

Anthony DeSclafani (4-3,

3.65) set to make the start

for Jacksonville. The

Lookouts will go with

right-hander Duke von

Schamann (3-4, 4.92).

First pitch is scheduled

for 5:15 p.m. ET.

Suns fans can listen to

Sunday’s game on the

Suns Baseball Network,

94.1 WSOS-FM or

MiLB.com or the Suns

beginning at 5:15 p.m.

ET with the UF Health

Rolle Takes Office in Atlanta as Youngest

Bahamas Consul General for JurisdictionBy Arthia Nixon, Press Secretary

Bahamas Consulate General Atlanta

(Atlanta, Georgia) With the city of Atlanta repeatedly

making the list as one of the top ten North American

cities for young professionals/CEO’s in Forbes and

BizJournal, the appointment of Randy C. Rolle as

Consul General to the Bahamas Consulate of Atlanta

speaks to the area’s abundance of youth-led compa-

nies and organizations.

Since taking officially taking office in July 2013,

Rolle has already been busy representing The

Commonwealth of The Bahamas in different forums.

He also has been pursuing opportunities in several fields such as investment, educa-

tion, trade and economy, entertainment and films, athletics and more.

“The focus is not just Atlanta even though our office is based there,” explained Rolle

at a recent briefing. “Our region includes Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kansas,

Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina, Oklahoma and Tennessee. Based

on findings of a recent focus group, we are learning that quite a few Bahamians living

in our jurisdiction do not know we represent them or understand the purpose of having

a consulate office. Many assume it is simply for passports or for students and it is

much more than that. We’ve already begun implementing ways to connect the diaspora

to our office so that we can mutually be abreast of what is going on at home and abroad

as it pertains to our citizens.”

Prior to this post, Rolle, received his professional education from Bethune Cookman

College and Johnson & Whales University, worked in the hospitality industry. As a

1998 recipient of the Caribbean Hotel Association scholarship, he was afforded oppor-

tunities to travel to Europe and North America as a Bahamian representative. He also

was a stellar sales executive at Atlantis’ Harborside Resort, rounding off the highest

sales volumes for 2003, coinciding with him heading the special operations depart-

ment he implemented. Just before his appointment, Rolle was certified as a project

manager and worked with The Ministry of Tourism Bahamas.

For the first time in school history,

Miles College will offer golf as a

sponsored sport the school recently

announced. The Golden Bears will

begin its inaugural season during the

2013-2014 school year.

“This new golf team is a great oppor-

tunity for Miles College to show yet

another component of the culture,

class and civility that we instill in

our students.” says President George

T. French. “It is a testament of the

standard of excellence that we

expect from our students academi-

cally and holistically”.

Being charged with the task of build-

ing the Golden Bear program is first

year head coach Leonard Smoot. A

24-year retired veteran of United

States Marine Corps (USMC),

Smoot brings over 20 years of com-

petitive golf experience. He has sev-

eral top-10 finishes in competitive

tournaments throughout Southeast

Asia and Europe, including wins at

the Wago Championship (Okinawa,

Japan) as well as the Staff & Officer

Championship (Awase, Japan). In

2002, Smoot became just the third

African-American to make the

United States Marines Golf Team.

Since 2008, he also has served as a

mentor/coach for the Professional

Women’s Golf Association while

also previously serving in various

roles for many regional golf tourna-

ments, including the South Region

Minority Supplier Development

Council Golf Classic (SRMSDC),

the Museum of Urban Art Golf

Tournament, the Stillman College

Scholarship Golf Tournament, and

Alabama Leadership Foundation

Golf Classic.

“I’m very excited to be a part of

establishing the golf program at

Miles College. Adding golf provides

a distinguished opportunity for the

institution to have a positive impact

on the lives of young adults and

potentially open doors for them that

may not have, otherwise, been avail-

able,” says Smoot, who has also

been a competitive boxer for over 30

years, including competing as a

member of the USMC boxing team,

and serving as a boxing coach.

The Miles College golf team will

take part in non-competitive events

during the fall semester, beginning

with the National Black College Hall

of Fame Golf Invitational,

September 27th-29th in Atlanta, GA.

The Golden Bears’ season will offi-

cially begin in spring 2014.

“The motto for our golf team this

season will be P.M.A., which stands

for Positive Mental Attitude. What

this means is that regardless of the

situation, we want our student-ath-

letes to have a positive mental atti-

tude as well as the will to win,

whether it’s on the golf course, in the

classroom, or just functioning in

society,” Smoot stated.

Coach Smoot states that he has

already successfully recruited four

players, two from Atlanta, GA and

two from Kimberly, AL, that are set

to enroll as freshmen this fall and

will look to add more golfers to the

team prior to the start of the upcom-

ing season.

“My goal is to find good kids that

want to receive a quality education.

We want to develop a successful golf

program that can compete for SIAC

Championships as well as NCAA

Division II Championships,” says

Smoot.

College golf program, contact Head

Coach Leonard Smoot by email at
