Press Conference Will Now Save College!



I am happy to see Black Elected Officials gather in harmony any day. However it's a little late for Paul Quinn. Board Leadership has been the problem for Paul Quinn since Heck was a pup.Men who could master a pulpit and make people shout with joy for Jesus Christ , have run the school into ruin.

The Black Colleges were born out of need ,during a time when Black young people could not attend White schools.Black's as a whole had less then but performed better.
How could a few Church people organize a College, educated young adults with less and today this same group of people cannot manage with the help of Government,donations ,community help and etc.

The majority community must wonder, why are these same people whining about the same
situation year after year and nothing gets better it continues to be worst. Comer did his best ,he invested his money buying that property when others were standing around making empty promises.The buildings from the outside look the same, last time I was in the Hall for an event it was still hot, there is a new wonderful sign with
the school name which any institution needs.
Thanks Michael Sorrell you have given your all and more but you cannot do it alone.This Community is just tired, we care but we've been doing this for, I know 30 years.

Bishop Gregory Ingram What Seed Have you Sowed?




If This Document contain miss spelled words or any other error correct them in your mind:




Letter to the Editor
Elite News@dfwelitenews.com

Dear Mr. Blair,
I read your column in volume 49 edition 28 with remarks by Bishop Gregory G.M. Ingram, Presiding Prelate of the African Methodist Episcopal, 10Th District. Mr. Blair I was shocked to see this man in an African American news paper asking Black Church People to Sow a Seed.

The African Methodist Episcopal 10Th District owned a Church property at 1626 Bar Harbor Dr, Dallas, Texas 75232. The beautiful home had been the residence home for the Presiding Bishop. Twenty five years the home served the Bishops and accommodated District activities. Bishop Bryant a most wonderful man and wife had just lived in the home.

When Ingram was appointed Bishop over this District, which was a promotion for him, he and his wife visited the home and refused to spend one night there. Ingram stayed in a hotel until a house could be found in North Dallas good enough for him. I called the District office and ask why Bishop Ingram did not want to live in the Southern Sector, and Oak Cliff. I was informed that the Bishop did not like the area, and he needed a bigger and better house, and of course the Church was paying for the new house. The house on Bar Harbor did not sell soon as the Church needed the money, because they didn’t have cash to pay for Ingram’s new house; the church took a lost on 1626 house so they could get Ingram out of that hotel.
All this time Paul Quinn was drowning and the man in charge of the District that oversees the school was spending church money living high on the hog, that church money could have gone to the school. If Bishop Ingram and his wife are too good for Oak Cliff that they would not spend one night in a fully furnished house, how can I give one dime to anything that Ingram has to do with? Paul Quinn is located in Oak Cliff, the students live in Oak Cliff but the man in charge will not spend one night in Oak Cliff. Where is God in all this?

I cleaned up Bishop College, I went back and cleaned up Paul Quinn, I worked on getting ac working at Paul Quinn. I have made contribution to Paul Quinn while at the same time I contribute to my Alma Mata Huston Tillotson University in Austin.

Bishop Gregory G.M. Ingram a Negro from Detroit has the nerve to dislike Oak Cliff so bad he would not sleep out here, will never receive one dime from me for anything.
I do respect Michael Sorrel and what he has tried to do at the College, I feel for the students but with Leadership on the Board with the mind set of Bishop Ingram nothing will change with all the money in the world.

Dallas Texas, White and Black, City and Corporate community, Churches’ and other groups have supported Bishop and Paul Quinn colleges to no avail. It is time to call the question.
Thanks to Senator West the students do have another school in walking distance to attend and receive an education.

All events are correct to my knowledge some are my opinion.

Great Woman and Friends Funeralized in same week .


I attended the funeral service of two very good woman and hard workers in our Community. Ms. Tommie Lackey Franklin was a woman who trained young people. A gentleman that had been in her teen group years ago came to the service and he was a living testimony of what happen when a child has a role model and someone who care about their future.Ms. Franklin helped thousands of young people follow the right path.

Sue Daniels was another hard working in the grass roots of politics,she was the same Sue everyday, her husband Don would do what ever she ask. I will miss Sue the way she would put her hands on my cheeks and say 'oh Betty how are you'.
Rest in Peace Ms. Franklin and Sue you did your job very well.

Sara Palin's 'higher calling' !


Sara Palin's higher calling is money. Sister Palin saw first hand how it feels to wear fine fabric, Italian leather, silky, silk body lotions and sleep in beds with 500 thread sheets and feather pillows.
As Governor the money is not great and with a family to support she needs to make money. What is her speaking fee now? Ten to twenty five thousand per night with all expense paid.
My Father was a world war vet and an Eisenhower Republican, his bones or dust from his bones must me swirling in his grave to think Palin and Rush (drug addicted talk show host)are the new Voices of the Republican Party.This woman is so ill prepared for national politics. The Press will eat her alive.Ms. Palin is stubborn and thinks she knows it all and in the pass would not listen to other Media professionals.She is so angry with the Press and blames them for her lost. This woman really believed she was going to be VP of the United States of America.IT"s one thing to know you are not the sharpest knife in the drawer and get a break to be in a position to excel , but to think you are there because of qualification and deserve the position
is crazy. I am happy for the people of Alaska.

Michael Jackson Dead from Broken Heart and Dreams


Michael Jackson Death of a Broken Heart.

To be blessed with God given talent ,family, money and fame and yet so tormented with life , the only way you can sleep is have your body shut down so your mind can rest is the saddest reason a human would die in this age of modern medicine.
It always seemed that Michael suffered from some mental stress and grew strange after his skin disease was diagnosis people made fun of his skin turning white, which was so cruel.
Growing up in his father’s home The strict discipline of the Father, being next to the youngest child, the brothers jealous of his natural talent ,seeing his mother dominated by the father, being home all day with so many young kids, hearing the arguments of the parents severely damaged Michael Jackson. A few years of good therapy and some mild medication to stop his mind from spinning like a top would have corrected his problem.
His will expresses he did not trust his family members, even now this poor man has not been buried because of family feud. The Father Joe is busy trying to capitalize on his death, his mother wanting to get Court papers over his Estate very first working day after his death and no one talking about his burial. I know his mother loved him but when will some person from that family show some real grief for Michael.

The fans loved him and God loves him. The stupid Police Chief or Mayor in Los Angles said on CNN “Jackson Family should be paying the City for security while they are paying 25,000.00 for a gold casket” how crazy. In a City of Famous people he should know about crowd control.
People are trying very hard to make Michael a dope addict, I know that the drug reported to have been found in his home are (Diprivan) not the type used to get high. The drug is given normally in an IV and it puts you in a coma like state, you feel no pain nor do you remember anything your mind is blank, when you wake up you do not feel any kind of high. Michael just wanted to rest his mind.

I will never believe Michael molested any child. He was searching for his childhood, he knew children are innocent and love you for who you are not what you have. Children don’t judge, complain or deceive. Michel loved the Peace being in the presence of innocent minds who loved the park games and rides he also enjoyed.

May Michael Jackson rest in Peace and enjoy the sleep of mind he so desperately sought.

Mother Pleaded for Return Of Baby! All a lie.



The mother of the missing Baby now says she was afraid of the Boyfriend so she lied.

I can understand being afraid of a man when you are alone with him and cannot protect yourself. When you have several Police Officers surrounding you , how in the Hell can you still be afraid of one man. I am sorry Ladies but I don't buy the story.
An Innocent child is gone and this fool has another one on the way my goodness what are we to do.

The other group of fools killed the Doctor because he performed abortions. I do not believe in abortion, however I believe in a Person's right to make that choice not the Government. The group that killed the Doctor think it's OK to kill a grown man but not OK to kill an unborn fetus that nobody knows. What the Hell is this world coming to?

How Dare DMN Criticize Carolyn Davis?








HOW DARE the Dallas Morning New, criticize Carolyn Davis for Dead Man Curve!

DMN (the Palin group) is slowly becoming the worst Editorial group since Heck was a pup.
S.M. Wright Freeway has been an ongoing Battle for People in South Dallas since Councilwoman Elsie Faye Higgins. Every single Black elected Official and some well meaning White people and Officials have worked on that stretch of Highway for years only to be told time and time again the same thing. What you see now at the spot of many accidents is an improvement.
When I-45 split the Black neighborhood in half and destroyed many homes, they promised to fix Dead Man Curve and what you see is the fix. The street was widened and cement curve barrier put up to prevent head on collision like in pass accidents. Give Carolyn Davis a break on Dead Man Curve we all have worked our ASS off to get that thing fixed but to no avail. State and City had no intention of fixing it as long as it leads to nowhere in their minds.

DMN, Davis gets chance to hone leadership skills: Well, Hell where were you while that Buffoon lead DISD? Have you ever ask Jack Lowe where he’s been while an over paid staff stole the DISD blind? Did you ask Lowe if he knew Hinojosa son was in that program using Title 1 money, which is clearly for poor kids, first generation graduated and undeserved minority. Hispanics are the Majority of DISD so the are not undeserved. Hinojosa son met none of the qualifications for that program; Jack Lowe said it’s nothing wrong with it. 1.6 million dollars paid to connect kids to college, what the hell is wrong with that picture.

Carolyn Davis has had some slow moments at City Hall but so have two other elderly White men from North Dallas. One can not remember one vote from another after he wakes up. The people elected them not the DMN.

Dallas has lots of bad elected officials and as you noted DMN only 1,338 voted in the run off. You know why. Black people are worn out with seeing the same situation in their neighborhood week after week month after month and nothing seems to change. It does not matter who the Council person is Dallas City Hall is run by the same folk or their children or their Protégé.
The City Manager form of government is why Dallas is one sided, all on the North nothing on the South. It was planned. Looks at what we have North bright lights, clean streets new buildings as far as the eye can see until you cross the magic line and even the grass looks different the Freeway is gray and ugly not beige and brown with State star.

DMN Black people in this Town are tired of seeing White people, Brown people, Asians people prosper and gain respect in Dallas while nothing changes for them, from their local Government. If Hinojosa was Black he would have been run out of Town or in jail for the things He’s done at DISD. How did he hire Kim Olson knowing she was given an Honorable discharge from service on a Plea bargain and part of that say’s she can not work under Federal programs for some years, DISD has all sorts of Federal programs.

DMN find some White people to talk about. I am too old to keep being hit in the face each morning with your news paper and the Bull S____ you write. Visit someone who knows something about Dallas before you state your Opinion. Why do you think these new Black Leaders are in trouble all over this Country, they found out after being elected the Dream was a sack of money and the businessmen had the biggest sacks? The Dream had nothing to do about ALL the People just you and yours.


President Obama please help me Dream again!

Can We Stop Hateing People Who Disagree With Us?


May 23, 2009

I ran for City Council in 2006 the day after the election, I checked into Baylor Hospital and had major surgery. I kept the surgery quite because I was still a DHA Board member. I was hospitalized for seven days. My friend and one of the hardest working Councilman at City Hall, Dwain Caraway was by my side and all. Took me home from hospital. And saw to it I had every thing I needed.
I tell this story because after that surgery

I sort of mentally separated my self from Politics and stayed out of it so I could recover. The DHA board was a natural for me it’s my profession. I did not miss one meeting due to illness. I am now on the DFW Airport board and its hard work so many aspects to the organization. It is very political. Just two short years and the climate have changed.

What I have found this time round the people in Power want you to agree with them on all issues as if you give up your identity and mind to serve. They get mad with you and you become the enemy vs. a person with a mind of your own. What is strange is your opinion is not contrary to their opinion they just don’t want you to express it’s as if no one has sense but them.
They really become angry with you and you end up on the s---- list. To make this City and Country great it will take all of us. No man no matter how smart knows every thing
We all need help.
Many mistakes are made because people think they are so smart and know everything until they put their foot in their mouths daily. Some have the God mentality if they say it
It’s the law.
I
Pray the people will give up that nasty hate of people who simply have a difference of opinion.

President Obama has said our opponents are not our enemies and that is so true good open dialogue Is healthy I hope the New Council will understand and have more tolerance for other peoples right to the First Amendment.

This comes from experience.

Round One: DA Craig Watrins vs. Commissioner Price

Well, the show is on at Dallas County. Freshman DA elected County wide, very well liked, doing good job named Texan of the Year by major news organization in one corner.
Career 25 year County Commissioner elected from District 3, Jail problem, budget short fall, been in confrontation with lots of people, bad press on Inland Port and etc,
Timing is the only thing saving Commissioner Price in this battle.

Black folk are happy with Craig Watkins being first Black DA. People all over the World like the fact he has return Justice to the criminal justice system.

If and when the Voters are forced to make a choice it will be the Black DA who has restored honor to the office. Many people are already mad at how Commissioner Price is treating Craig Watkins. The one saving grace is DA Watkins has not called Commissioner Price’s name as being the one, but the street grape vine has it and now everyone knows. John is correct in handling the budget it’s his job and responsibility, but to say the DA is in La,La Land.
The side bar work that the Public does not see is why the DA responds the way he has. I retired form Dallas County in 2004 they had started to ask all Departments heads to cut % back then and every year since, this budget shortfall is nothing new. Dallas County has the lowest tax in the State and that is good. The Commissioners Court is responsible for the Jail being in the condition it was in, Sheriff Bowles asks year after year and was turn down, but his jail still passed inspection. In the same budget. I was in the same hearing begging for my budget, the budget office turned me down every year for jail health even when Parkland was paying, The way Budget works at the County is: the budget Office sends you a budget based on current spending and staff, they then ask you to submit your new request for the new year, this information is given to budget office, the analyst meets with you and HR review you staffing request after that the budget office sends to the Commissioners Court what they recommend you get. Budget hearing is when the Commissioners hear your plea for new items that budget office did not recommend. Thos decisions have Cost the County close to 50 million dollars.
Neither jail nor jail health ever failed inspection during the five years I was in charge of health and worked with Sheriff Bowles. We had no new lawsuits either.

It is time Elected Official take responsibility and do what is right raise the DAM tax.
Officials are being irresponsible in asking staff to cut, cut, and cut when the only thing to do is raise more revenue. I worked for Dallas County 21 years I know how lean it is in terms of staff. I also know how Commissioners pick on different Directors and Officials.
Mike Cantrell hated me so he got off the Health Advisory Board, he could not take a Black woman speaking up. Jim Jackson could not stand Bowles that’s why they set him up. I could write a Book about what went on at Dallas County 21 years but the County has been good to me, so I will take it to my grave with me.

You need to write and tell the full Commissioners Court to do the right thing, raise taxes to fund basic County service we do not mind paying a little more for Justice to remain in the Court House. Commissioners Court 411 Elm St. Dallas, Texas 75201

I write this blog under the First Amendment, not as a Public Official.

A Day At City Council,Oh My God.



When the Mayor and Dallas City Council finish with the budget if they cut just half of what they talked about today, City Hall might as well close down. The water rates are going up again, parking, meter rate plus CUT,CUT ,CUT. Senior Service program they want to close down. People please pay attention and call your Council person.
Tax must be raised or Dallas will go darker at night.

They are spending 16 million dollars of Transportation money from President Obama to pave across Woodall Rogers freeway so Uptown can meet Downtown ,but want us to continue to drive on the tore up streets. We use Bond money for basic service but stimulus money for Park. I pray for the Councilmembers who are trying some don't have a clue. If you have time just go see your Government at work.Councilman Caraway,Atkins and a few others are trying Hill is on Judicial issue so maybe something at City Hall will work. Mary knows what it takes but the people she work for will not allow her idea's to happen. Sad so Sad.

Ok! Dallas Dirk Nowitzki Loves Woman of Color .Get Over It.




OK! Dallas now you know something that I have known for years. Dirk Nowitzki loves Woman of color and always has. That is one of the reasons he has kept his private life so very private, he knew Dallas would hate him for loving women of color. In Dallas we are so very racist in public but, Oh so equal opportunity in the bedroom.
Dirk is not the only one they are from the Board room to the wash room, baseball, football you name it.
White men love woman of color. Dirk is not an American so his love for women of color
Is a choice he made and it has worked for him.

The number one reason Black people are all different colors. White men have been in love with Black women since the beginning of time.

Dirk Nowitzki, its not wrong to love Cristal Taylor, she had some problems in the past trying to keep up, spending money, writing bad checks and misdemeanor thief. That does not make her a bad person. Is she wrong for doing those things yes, does that make her bad no. Martha Stewart went to prison. Judge Mathis went to jail.
Mark Cuban and party would love for you to date Martha Stewart her crime was the same.

Dirk, Dallas Fans, Mavericks and some of your employees want you to kick Cristal to the curb but you love her. Everyone around you Claim to care for you but you pay them so sure they care. How could Cristal know you all this time and no one checked her out until you ask her to marry you? If in fact you were having an investigation done for pre nuptial you were serious about her.

Dirk, Cristal is human she made a lot of mistakes but don’t allow your People to keep you from extending a helping hand. This Lady is in jail, no money and no help, if you love her help her. That does not mean you want to marry or have a relationship but if she lived in your home for two years, she deserves some help from you. Legal help so she can get her life on track. The case in Beaumont will not fly; Texas does not put people in jail for not paying a bill so that can be beat with good legal Counsel. The probation case in the other State is so old she will get time served or reduced sentence so she really will be back on the street in no time.

Cristal you need to think about your life and realize your beauty is 37 years old and will get older by the day so you cannot continue to use it to influence men to be good to you.
Get a job or education so you can care for your self, gain some confidence in self not beauty. Dirk Nowitzki loves you I believe, but you past caught up with you and has destroyed what has been your lifetime dream, marry a man with money. I am sure you care for him but God has interrupted your life for reason. Claim Jesus and leave reporters alone. Pray for God to send you some help quick!
HELP her DIRK !
