AUGUSTAThe Augusta Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma

Theta Sorority, Inc., Aiken Alumnae, Lake Oconee Area Alumnae, Thomson Alumnae, Eta Theta (Paine College), and MU XI - Georgia Regents University continue to celebrate 100 hundred years of Distinguished Sisterhood, Scholarship and Service.

The Centennial Celebration in Augusta, Georgia is in honor of the 23rd National President, Dr. Louise A. Rice, who is a resident of Augusta. As a part of this celebration, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. will hold its Centennial Gala at the Savannah Rapids Pavilion on Friday, May 3, 2013 from 7:30pm - Midnight. Tickets are $35.00 and attire is formal.

The Savannah Rapids Pavilion is located at 3300 Evans to Lock Road, Martinez, GA.

The celebration in Augusta will culminate Parade and Torch Ceremony on May 4, 2013. A special Torch Ceremony will be held at 10am with the parade line up at 8:00am on Mill Street behind C.T. Walker Magnet School. Venders will be located at 339 Laney-Walker Blvd.

Delta Sigma Theta is one of the nation’s largest sororities. The torch was first lit on January 1, 2013 in Los Angeles, and is being passed from city to city in the United States, Japan, and Bermuda. There are 22 cities along the tour, which represents the 22 founders of the sorority. The tour concludes in

Washington, D.C. in July during the organization’s national convention.

Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated is an organization of college-educated women commit-ted to the advancement of its members and to public service with a primary focus on the African-American community.

Among the well-known members of the soror-ity are former Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin, CNN News Anchor Soledad O’Brien, the late con-gresswomen Barbara Jordan of Texas and Shirley Chisholm of New York, entertainer Lena Horne and the founder of Bethune-Cookman College, Mary McLeod Bethune.

Celebrating 100 Years of Distinguished Sisterhood

Louise A. Rice PhD

Dr. Louise A. Rice is the Immediate Past National President of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority (DST), Inc., having served for four years as chief executive of the premier national service organization comprised of predominantly African-American women who are college-educated professionals residing throughout the United States and several foreign countries.

As president, Dr. Rice embarked upon fulfilling the Sorority’s mis-sion by employing the theme: “One Mission, One Sisterhood: Empowering Communities through Committed Service” during both the 2004-2006 and 2006-2008 bien-nium.

Dr. Rice established a Health Task Force to work in collaboration with Delta’s National Program Planning and Development Committee to determine the most effectual plan of action to improve health among African-American families.

In April 2006, the Sorority held Summit VI: “Health Issues that Impact Women of African Descent” in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Health care professionals shared their expertise in the research and treatment of chronic diseases which dispropor-tionately affect African-Americans.

Under Dr. Rice’s leadership, the Sorority established the Delta Hurricane Katrina Relief Task Force to facilitate the needs of Gulf Coast residents affected by the national disaster.

Before the completion of Dr. Rice’s term of office in July 2008, $180,000 was designated for “Eyes on Our Youth” scholarships for male and female students at Bennett College, Tuskegee, and Paine College.

URBAN PRO WEEKLY: This year marks the 100th year since the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. was founded. Can you put that accomplishment in context for our readers — especially for those who may not be familiar with what the organization does?

DR. LOUISE RICE: As Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. cele-brates her centennial anniversa-ry, having been founded on the campus of Howard University in Washington, DC on January 13, 1913, we do so with a great sense of gratitude and pride.

Our Founders, 22 young, bright, college educated women, envi-sioned an organization dedicated to service, altruism, and excel-lence. They were committed to improving the lives of people in the communities where they lived, and one of their first acts of public service involved their participat-

ing in the Suffragette March for Women’s Rights in Washington, DC in March 1913, along with and in support of white women who were seeking the right to vote. The only Black organization to participate in the march, they knew that the vote would not be extended to them at that time but, even so, they willingly demonstrated their sup-port for women’s suffrage. This year, in a salute to and in celebra-tion of the achievement of voting rights for women, the leadership of Delta Sigma Theta requested and received the permit from the Washington, DC government to re-enact the Women’s Suffrage March on its 100th anniversary in March 2013, during Delta’s centennial cel-ebration.

Out of the vision of Delta’s 22 Founders, the 24 women who have served as National President of the Sorority, and the more than 275,000 women who have joined our ranks

worldwide, the Sorority continues to implement community service programs in over 1,000 communi-ties throughout the world, focusing on our Five Point Programmatic Thrust: Economic Development, Educat ional Development, International Awareness and Involvement, Physical and Mental Health, and Political Awareness and Involvement.

UPW: You have held national offices in the organization —including the presidency — what were some of the most impor-tant things you learned when viewing service from a national standpoint versus operating on the local level?

Director, National Secretary, Chair of the National Leadership Academy, National First Vice President/Chair of Scholarship and Standards, and the 23rd National President, I grew substantially over the years in knowledge, awareness, and experi-ence. Early on, it became clear to me that much more can be accom-plished if one leads by example. Painting the picture and advocating are necessary and good, but being the example of that vision and advo-cacy is more effective in terms of commitment and accomplishment. Simply put, one must ‘back the talk with the walk’.

Service on the national level allows a greater impact, an oppor-tunity to set wheels in motion, to involve more people in the empow-erment process, and to be able to transform more lives. Greater net-working opportunities and, thus, greater opportunities to improve one’s well-being are available at the national level.

UPW: We know that political awareness and involvement have been cornerstones of the orga-nization’s mission. You were president in 2008, the year that President Obama was elected president. What do you recall about that campaign and your role as president of the Deltas?

DR. RICE: During the campaign leading up to President Obama’s election in 2008, I was in my second two-year term as National President. Though the Sorority does not engage in political campaigns or endorsements, we are very passion-ate about people being aware of the issues and involved in the political process. As president, I supported an agenda which required chapters throughout the nation to sponsor regularly voter registration drives and political forums. These forums

were designed to enlighten commu-nity constituents about the issues and to allow them an opportunity to meet the candidates with the goal of enabling them to become aware of who the candidates were and where they stood on the issues impacting citizens’ lives. In no way did we suggest for whom they should vote but, rather that they must use their political power by voting intelligently.

UPW: What is the Centennial Torch Tour and how is it that Augusta was selected to be one of the cities involved in that cel-ebration?

DR. RICE: The Centennial Torch Tour is symbolic of the organi-zation’s commitment globally to Sisterhood, Scholarship, and com-munity service. The Tour began on January 1, 2013 in Los Angeles, California after the Sorority’s par-ticipation in the Tournament of Roses Parade, and will visit 22 cit-ies in commemoration of our 22 Founders. The 22 cities were select-ed based on the residency of our five current National Officers, the eight living Past National Presidents – now seven as one passed in January 2013, and eight other cit-ies of national and historical sig-nificance. Among the latter are Little Rock, Arkansas in memory of the ‘Little Rock Nine’ who inte-grated schools there; Greensboro, North Carolina where the ‘Sit-in-demonstrations’ began; and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma where the bombings occurred. In recogni-tion of our international chapters, the Torch Tour also includes Tokyo, Japan and Bermuda which are two of our fourteen international chap-ters.

UPW: We in the CSRA are well aware of your accomplishments in

the field of education from grade school through the university level. One of your focal points as president was Health Care. What are some of the things that we need to do better in that field?

DR. RICE: In conjunction with our Physical and Mental Health Thrust, several issues involving health care were promoted during my adminis-tration. Because many of our health care issues are the result of a lack of knowledge and access, I focused on basic health care knowledge and increasing the awareness of dispari-ties in health care. This was done through forums presented, docu-ments compiled, and programs initi-ated. It is often said that if we know better, we do better. Consequently, I deem it important that we under-stand essentials for good health care – proper diet and exercise, sufficient sleep, periodic health check-ups, and positive attitudes. Incorporating the foresaid and continuing to eliminate disparities should result in a health-ier society.

UPW: What does Dr. Louise Rice

do to relax? Do you have any hob-bies or interests that you might classify as “more than casual?”

DR. RICE: Being very involved in activities locally and nationally, I certainly seek relaxation as often as possible. Other than casual hobbies like solving crossword puzzles and the Jumble daily, I enjoy mentoring young people, especially females. Such great joy is experienced when I feel I am able to positively impact an individual’s life. Also, I have never had an opportunity to travel somewhere to which I said, “No.” I love traveling and have had the opportunity to visit 42 of 50 states; England; Africa; Germany; France; Japan; China; Jamaica; the Virgin Islands, St Thomas and Saint Croix; Bermuda; and the Bahamas. After the Centennial Convention in July, I hope to relax on a cruise to Sweden, Russia, Denmark, and a few other exciting places. Certainly, the relax-ation will be needed after busi-ness sessions and celebrating with many of the over 40,000 registrants who will be in attendance at the Centennial Convention!

Special Report: OPERATION THUNDER AND YOUR RIGHTS

Edited by UrbanProWeekly Staff

If you live in Richmond County, then you or someone you know has been caught up in Operation Rolling Thunder, the state-mandat-ed “safety-check”, that has been set-ting up and stopping motorists for weeks in the Augusta area.

Although the police are supposed to notify the public in advance when and where the check points are located, that is hardly ever done and citizens who resent that over-sight have begun to take matters into their own hands (or smart phones) by posting times and loca-tions of the check points in real time as they discover them being set up.

Facebook sites such as “Operation Rolling Thunder Spotline” warn other citizens of unusual amounts

of police activity at given locations and share links with others about their civil rights in the face of police stops.

The recent arrest of a motorist who attempted to evade a check point sparked a lively debate on Facebook about citizens’ rights and police “heavy-handedness.”

Last week James Eades was arrested when he refused to roll his window “all the way down” after being stopped by police. He was arrested and had to post $1700 bond to gain his freedom.

Civil libertarians have always been wary of police check points because they create situations where untrained or overzealous law enforcement officers have been accused of denying motorists their constitutional rights to be free from unneccessary search and seizure.

Folks have good reasons for wanting to avoid police check points (See sidebar “Thunder May Lead to Rain.”)

Civil rights professionals have detected a disturbing trend as a result of “routine” traffic stops. The federal government is fund-ing state governments to assist in their deportation of undocument-ed aliens. So if you are latino and you get caught up at a check point, you may be in for a rough time regardless of whether you have done anything wrong and regard-less of whether or not you were in the driver’s seat.

Drivers are often unaware that the police must behave in a certain fashion in these situations and a motorist can “control” the situation if he or she has a bit of courage and is armed with the facts.

Thunder May Lead To Rain

by Concerned Citizen[The writer of this piece said, “I don’t think I

should have my name attached to it, as I don’t want to get harassed by the Po-po...”]

The Georgia governor’s “Operation Thunder” traffic task force may be getting impaired drivers off the road – but there is also a possibility that the hefty fines for minor traffic violations could create unintended consequences for the poor.

Imagine the following scenario: a motorist (let’s call him Joe Blue-Collar) is driving home after a long day on the job. Following his usual route, he sees flashing blue lights and barricades that instruct him that a “road check” is in place up ahead. Unknown to him, a tail-light is burned out and his windows are tinted too dark. Several hundred dollars’ worth of citations are doled

out, just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Our “Joe” faces the daunting task of trying to borrow money to pay the fines or trying to pick up extra shifts on the job. Neither solution is avail-able. Unable to pay, Joe’s license is suspended. Now, he must decide whether to risk driving on a sus-pended license or losing his job. Joe takes the risk, is arrested one night and consequentially loses his job. And his downward spiral continues. With no income, Joe faces incar-ceration as fines and court

costs pile up.Meanwhile, another motorist (let’s call him

Billy Riches) is stopped at a road block and arrested for DUI. Since Billy has plenty of money, he hires the best attorney, pays his fines, and complies with all court costs and fees. Billy is back on the road in no time.

A few thousand dollars in fines and legal fees is chump change to “Billy Riches”, yet a few hundred dollars is a jail sentence for “Joe Blue-Collar”.

The inequality of the ability to pay for traffic fines became a catalyst for several European countries to re-think their approach to enforce-ment of motorist laws. Switzerland, Germany, France, Austria, Denmark, Finland, and Iceland are some of the countries that implement income-based traffic fines.

Some American lawmakers are beginning to stop ignoring the plight of the poor when it comes to traffic fines. In March 2013, Washington State passed a bipartisan bill in the House that offers a payment plan to citizens who are too poor to pay traffic fines all at once. The effect is to stop the downward spiral in the legal system which can eventually result in jail time.

Michael J. Steinberg, director of Michigan’s chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, said in a statement to The Detroit News, “Pay-or-stay sentences are no choice for the poor. They translate to rich people writing a check and going home and poor people going to jail. It’s a mod-ern-day debtor’s prison. This two-tiered system of justice is shameful, it’s a waste of resources, it is unconstitutional, and it must be changed.”

There is no doubt that there are citizens in Richmond County who will face difficult finan-cial decisions as a result of “Operation Thunder”. To some, it is a minor inconvenience. To others, it is making a choice between buying needed medicines or diapers, or paying a traffic fine for a minor traffic infraction to avoid suspension of their licenses.

There is no doubt that there are citizens in Richmond County who will face difficult financial decisions as a result of “Operation Thunder.”

Citizens use social media to “bust” police at check points

Police check points are ostensibly set up for making the roads safer, but increasingly they have come under attack from the public for possible violations of constitutional rights. The law is unclear on what is proper police behavior and allowable public response.

DUI road blocks cannot be set up any time, any place. There are conditions that must be met.

In Georgia, DUI roadblocks must be publicized in advance. Typically, newspapers, news stations, and police websites will notify the pub-lic about the upcoming roadblock a week before it is conducted and they must also be visible to oncom-ing drivers. Flashing lights, warn-ing signs, marked police cars, and uniformed officers can make them visible.

In 1990, the United States Supreme Court declared that sobri-ety checkpoints did not violate citizen’s Fourth Amendment right against unreasonable search and seizure. Each state has adopted

laws of their own regarding sobri-ety checkpoints.

If you are stopped in Georgia, you are required to provide iden-tifying information such as your name, address, driver’s license, and registration.

By law, you do not have to say anything and you don’t have to submit to a field sobriety test. Most police officers will not tell you this. There are certain guidelines that Georgia law enforcement must fol-low to ensure that checkpoints do not qualify as unreasonable search and seizure. Each state uses its own specific guidelines.

The following guidelines are offered by the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration

about sobriety checkpoints:*They must be part of an ongoing

program to deter drunk driving.*There must be established

procedures for how to proper-ly operate a Georgia sobriety or DUI (driving under the influence) checkpoint.

*The selection of checkpoints must be done in the interest of public safety and chosen for a specific objective (i.e. an unusual number of drunk driving accidents in that area)

*Drivers should be warned of an upcoming checkpoint.

*The public should be aggres-sively informed of sobriety check-points with ample warning so they can avoid them completely.

Livin OutLoud Artistic Commentary Provided by LadyVee DaPoet

Just give me ONE good reasonArtists who are “on the grind” show-

casing and selling their work to the creative community have a challenge ahead of them. Many artists deal with the internal conflict of wanting to cre-ate only for themselves and then turn around and convince the buying public that their art is something they need to purchase. Poets and spoken word art-ists often produce poetry books that tell of their life, struggle and triumph but publishers won’t pick their work to sell at major bookstores because that type of product “doesn’t move” like a literary work of fiction, self-help or biography. The challenge to overcome is: How do I make my art relevant to others in order to get support? The answer is: Just Give them ONE Good Reason!!

Sure, you poured your heart and soul into your artwork or performance. YOU understand each and every word and you feel very strongly about the emotions you portrayed in your piece. That’s important. What some artists forget is the other component of mak-ing yourself and your work something

that garners attention from the public. You have to connect and be relatable to the pulse of your buying audience. After creating your art it helps to step away from it and look at it objectively. If your art was heard on stage, seen on a bookshelf, or viewed in an art gallery…what would make someone else pay attention to it?

Giving your audience a good reason to support you is relevant even when it comes to producing quality events. Let’s say you put on an entertainment showcase. Open mics are great for inspiration but think about how many more people would support the show if each ticket sale benefitted a local char-ity or maybe if a well-known performer from out of town was booked for the show as a feature artist. Your poems in your poetry collection are wonderful reading but how about adding artwork in the book to go along with the poems or short introductions explaining how each poem connects with the reader’s emotions and life experiences? By giv-ing the buying public good reasons to linger a little longer with your art, you

are getting quality exposure to make your artistry grow.

Step out and brainstorm the reasons why your art should stand out from the rest. Take those risks to be unique and don’t forget to have fun with all the new possibilities! I’d love to come

to your show, buy your paint-ing, or snap my fingers to your poem then buy your Cd or book….but first, give me ONE good reason why I should!
