SC Johnson announced Wednesday it was donating money to reopen the LaurelClark Fountain for public use as a splash pad.
The donation, which could exceed $200,000, is expected to reverse a city policythat had closed the fountain to children this year. City officials had shut down thefountain because chlorine was corroding its pipes and damaging a pump. Rather thanreplace the plumbing, the city stopped chlorinating the water. This ran afoul of stateregulations, and signs were posted threatening anyone who splashed in the fountainwith a ticket.
"The residents of Racine – and children in particular – love this fountain," said SCJohnson Chairman and CEO Fisk Johnson. "It's a beautiful, inspiring place for fami-lies to gather on a hot summer day so we would like to make sure the fountain isfunctioning properly and the water is safe."
"The city is fortunate to have a great community partner like SC Johnson step for-ward to make this generous donation," said Mayor John Dickert. "Funding for therenovation and operation of the fountain would not be possible without their sup-port."
According to media reports, Fisk Johnson, above, was personally involved in thedecision to revive the fountain. The company said it was prepared to take on all coststo bring the fountain up to code, including adding bathrooms and an attendant at thesite.
The donation should put to rest persistent rumors that it was Johnson Financialthat forced the fountain's closure because they didn't want children splashing neartheir building. Clearly, the Johnson family supports the fountain.
The family is planning a quick fix to reopen the fountain this summer, and a long-term fix to solve the underlying issues that forced its closure. In the next few weeksSCJ and the city plan to re-chlorinate the water, provide an attendant and bring inportable bathrooms. At the end of the season SCJ plans to overhaul the fountain'splumbing to solve the problem.
"What a tragedy that this fountain is not going to be operating during this sum-mer," Johnson reportedly said. "It's a great fountain for kids and a great memorial toLaurel."
"We talked about it and thought, what a great opportunity to help the city by help-ing to solve this problem for the kids of the city."

The release of a leaked NAACP reporton the "State of Racine's Downtown."Based on comments here and at theRacine Journal Times, it's been a disaster.But that's all surface response to a reportthat has a lot more to offer. Here's a clos-er look at what the report was saying andwhat it could mean for the city:
It was a first draft. Based on inter-views with people close to the report, thereport "leaked" online this week toInsider News and RacinePost was anextremely early draft of a report that willeventually include data and furtherresearch. How early was the draft? It wasreleased weeks, if not months, early.
The NAACP's Executive Committee isscheduled to meet soon on the report. It'slikely at that meeting they'll reveal it wasan early draft and commission a deeperlook at the allegations and concerns. Thecommittee likely will "clean up" thereport before releasing a final document.
Where's this all headed? The localNAACP may call for a federal investiga-tion into the treatment of African-American-owned bars in Racine. Thatcould be a real problem for the city.
City officials aren't taking the reportseriously because it wasn't "sanctioned"by the NAACP, according to a sourcewho received a call from a city official.That's somewhat good news, because thereport, as it stands, is not in shape to betaken seriously.
Ken Lumpkin, owner of Insider News,confirmed Friday a key underlying issuein the report is the treatment of African-American-owned bars in the city. A for-mer bar owner himself, Lumpkin saidpoliticians attack bars as a way to looklike they're improving neighborhoods.
"Historically, white alderman in
African-American districts have usedclosing down African-American bars toshow theircommitmentto improvingthe African-Americancommunity,"said Lumpkin, who sits on the CountyBoard.
There's a noticeable decline in thenumbers of black-owned bars in Racineover the last 30 years, Lumpkin said. Heestimated the numbers have fallen fromabout 32 bars two decades ago to about10 bars today. Of those that remain, somehave been required by the city to imple-ment expensive security measures thathurt business. One Racine bar owner esti-mates they've lost $180,000 followingrequirements placed on their bar by the
city, Lumpkin said.Park 6, which may lose its liquor
license, is aflash point,Lumpkinsaid, becauseit's one of thefirst African-
American-owned bars to open inDowntown Racine. Historically, blacks inRacine have entertained themselves atInner City bars, Lumpkin said. Park 6,and then The Place on 6th, changed that.
Lumpkin said there's a general feelingamong African-Americans that they're notwelcome in Downtown Racine. True ornot, he added, there's a sense that minori-ty-owned bars in general are treated dif-ferently than white-owned bars. Lumpkinsaid he hopes the NAACP crunches dataon city bars to investigate this.
The best way to solve problems withcrowds on Sixth Street, or in any popularentertainment district, is to have policewalking beats on busy nights, Lumpkinsaid. "It's what they do in New Orleans,Memphis, Milwaukee or any area withthat many people mixing with alcohol."
The leaked draft of the report is fueledby concern among African-American-owned bars, restaurants and businesses,Lumpkin said. "They're afraid of what thecity is going to do," he said.
Lumpkin said the report marked animportant moment for African-Americansin the city. "This could be, and should be,a turning point in forming a direction,"Lumpkin said. "African-Americans beingleft out of Downtown is probably thegreatest issue before the African-American community."
Strategically, the leaked memo waseither a mistake or a brilliant, accordingto insiders. One said the memo wasleaked way too early and left the NAACPin a difficult position. But another saidthe memo works because it's designed tofire up African-Americans and create an"us vs. them" mentality.
Regardless, the NAACP has handledthe report poorly. It could easily have dis-tanced itself from the document, butinstead held off comment and now isfirmly tied to the report. One person com-pared it to Alderman Mike Shields com-munity forum at City Hall. It was a greatidea, but the execution was off and it did-n't have much of an effect on the commu-nity. Now, the organization needs to callthe report out for what it was - a veryearly draft - and get to work finishing upa document with some actual insightsinto the city. If that happens, it could bethe start of change.
After Dark Entertainment Lead to QuestionWhether or Not Blacks are Welcome Downtown
Thomas Homes stands behind his at Park 6 Club
According to a source inside the NAACP, a 10 page document will besent to the Justice Department outlining an investigation that suggestthat minorities are not welcome in the Racine Downtown area and dis-criminatory practices have been utilized to enforce these sanctions.Sources stated a private security firm has been utilized to exclude blacksfrom participating in downtown activities and the Downtown BusinessImprovement District employs the firm designed to practice segregation-ist tactics. Full document is posted on this website.
Also Craig Oliver, the organization's community coordinator for theRacine Branch NAACP was tight-lipped Wednesday July 7, 2010 abouta report leaked this to this blog site and the Racine Post. The ten pagereport accuses Downtown Racine "stakeholders" of being "modern dayplantation owners". Oliver gave the Insider News blog sight an interviewthat that you can view.

Lonne Givens has been given a gift as a Rhythm &Blues singer and musician. He has been blessed toentertain people for 28 years through his music andhas spent his life doing what he enjoys. Not only has
he had the opportunityto travel all over theworld and sing withsome of the mostfamous Rythym &Blues singers of alltime, but he is alsomaking a difference inthe lives of cancerpatients. He travelsextensively doing con-certs to raise moneyfor the Striving andSurviving CancerFoundation
Givens joined andworks diligently with the
Striving and Surviving Cancer Foundation that wasformed in 1998 by two women who were cancer sur-vivors, Beverly McCray & Tanya Johnson. He lost aniece to cancer and his mother and aunt are cancersurvivors, which is why he is so passionate aboutdoing benefits for the foundation. He knows firsthand the devastation and difficulties families faceduring such a serious illness as cancer. After havingdealt with this awful illness, he decided that lip serv-ice was not enough and he wanted to do
One of the things that impressed Givens about the
foundation that caused him to partner with them wastheir ability to touch the local communities and meetthe every day needs of those battling cancer. Heshared that the larger national cancer organizationsare often not able to help on such a personal level andget involved in the day-to-day activities of cancerpatients. The Striving and Surviving Foundation pro-vides emotional support twenty-four hours a day.Visits to the hospital and home are made along withtelephone calls, cards, and flowers are provided daily.Transportation services are available for appoint-ments, shopping, etc., as needed. Financial assistancewith transportation to doctor appointments out oftown and referrals are made on the patient’s behalf bymaking phone calls to various doctors and organiza-tions to ensure appropriate care for optional services.Childcare help is provided as well. Seminars andreading material are available to educate the public.
Givens stated that the foundation seeks to partnerwith local cancer organizations in the cities, andwhen a concert is done to raise money, all the fundsremain in the location in which the benefit was held.He feels strongly that it will take all the cancer organ-izations coming together to accomplish such atremendous task as helping those with this debilitat-ing disease. No one foundation can do it alone. Healso stressed the importance of regular doctor checkups for both men and women. Early detection is thekey to survival.
Anyone wishing to contact the Striving andSurviving Foundation can call 224-565-2680 or847.473.4029. They will connect you with supportgroups in your area and provide services you need.

ALL ABOUT PEOPLE WHO ARE MAKING THE NEWS
I’ll Play the Blues for You

The National Association forthe Advancement of ColoredPeople will propose a resolutionthis week condemning racismwithin the tea party movement.
The resolution, scheduled for avote as early as Tuesday by dele-gates attending the annualNAACP convention in KansasCity, calls upon “all people ofgood will to repudiate the racismof the Tea Parties, and to stand inopposition to its drive to push ourcountry back to the pre-civil rightsera.”
NAACP leaders said the resolu-tion was necessary to make peopleaware of what they believe is aracist element within the tea partymovement.
“I think a lot of people are nottaking the tea party movementseriously, and we need to take itseriously,” said Anita Russell,head of the Kansas City chapter ofthe NAACP. “We need to realizeit’s really not about limited gov-
ernment.”Russell said she was “pretty
certain” the resolution would pass.Tea party leaders deny that the
movement is racist and said theresolution is unfair.
“I just don’t see racism in thetea party movement,” saidBrendan Steinhauser, director ofcampaigns for FreedomWorks,which organizes tea party groups.“Racism is something we’reabsolutely opposed to.”
“The NAACP has more of apolitical agenda now, but I wouldhope that they would appreciatethe fact that the tea party move-ment has a lot in common with thecivil rights movement. I’m person-ally inspired by what the civilrights movement did, and I wantthem to know that.”
Among the charges lodgedagainst the tea party in the resolu-tion:
•Tea party supporters haveengaged in “explicitly racist
behavior” and “displayed signsand posters intended to degradepeople of color generally andPresident Barack Obama specifi-cally.”
Tea party activists have usedracial epithets, have verbally andphysically abused black membersof Congress and others, and havebeen charged with threateningpublic officials.
Tea party supporters also have adistorted view of race relations,the resolution says, citing poll datathat found that 25 percent believethat the Obama administration’spolicies favor blacks over whites,and 52 percent believe that “toomuch” has been made of the prob-lems facing black people, com-pared with 28 percent of the gen-eral population.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can;and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful worldas it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things rightif I surrender to His Will;That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with HimForever in the next.Amen. --Reinhold Niebuhr
