I'm sure you all have been wondering just who were among the nearly 300 who attended the third annual "Paving the Way to Healing and Recovery: Revolutionary Healing" conference on Wednesday, April 12, 2017, to discuss promising strategies that promote healing practices for young men of color who have been harmed by violence.
Quote:Denice Martin-Thompson from Passion Filled People, Lindsey Sherwin & Javan Howard from You Are the Shift, RJ Maccani & Gaurav Jashnani from Generation Give, Keston Jones & Saul Rivera from Healthy Start Brooklyn, NYCDOMH, Rommell Washington from Crime Victims Treatment Center, Cordelia Loots-Gollin & Pearl Dick from Healing Hurt People and Project Fire: ArtReach Chicago, David Gaskin & Rahson Johnson from S.O.S., Sebastien Vante from Safe Horizon, Liz Roberts & Lisa O'Connor from Safe Horizon, Saskia Valencia, Anne Oredeko & Charles Nunez from Youth Represent, Dr. Charles C.

Those unfortunate young men of color should take a cue from darling young Chlamydia, and find themselves a Pearl Dick!
For darling young Chlamydia, singing the SMDFMA song with dear old dad no doubt pales in comparison to spending a little quality time with Pearl Dick.
Too bad DegreeInfo uberperv Thomas Vernon "Chip" White couldn't be there to film the encounter between Chlamydia and Pearl Dick. True, being over 18 they are both a little long in the tooth for Chip's tastes, not to mention the more-or-less wrong gender, chromosomally speaking. Still, memorializing some of those exciting "breakout sessions" could be a lucrative sideline for White, the premier pedophile-pandering porn peddler.
Pearl Dick is listed as the "Artistic Director" at ArtReach. Remember, when you need some "artistic direction," always be sure to use a Pearl Dick.
Pearl Dick's Facebook page describes her as "In a relationship with Shannon Downey." Wow, it's a lesbian, who would have guessed? Let's hope that Shannon isn't the jealous type, or somebody might be finding out about healing hurt people first-hand.

Maybe the good folks of Chicago should stop killing each other. Then they wouldn't need to be healed. Black Lies Matter has managed to intimidate police so much that they avoid policing black neighborhoods. How's that working out.

Who knows more about inner city young men of color harmed by violence than white suburban lesbians? What a joke. Clearly they were there because they heard it was a good place to pick up other white suburban lesbians.
And speaking of the good folks of Chi-congo, you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows there: Chicago: 75% of Murdered Are Black, 71% of Murderers Are Black
Quote:7 Statistics You Need To Know About Black-On-Black Crime
President Barack Obama has no problem making disgusting, untrue assertions about cops being racist at a funeral for murdered cops yet does not give major speeches on the epidemic of black-on-black crime.
Here are seven statistics you need to know about black-on-black crime that the president will not address.
1. Data shows that 93 percent of black homicide victims are killed by other blacks.
The left's rebuttal is that that 84 percent of white homicide victims are killed by other whites, but The Wall Street Journal's Jason Riley points out that the white crime rate is "much lower than the black rate."
2. According to Riley, "Blacks commit violent crimes at 7 to 10 times the rate that whites do."
Blacks committed 52 percent of homicides between 1980 and 2008, despite composing just 13 percent of the population. Across the same timeframe, whites committed 45 percent of homicides while composing 77% of the population, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics.
Here are some more statistics from the FBI:
Quote:In 2013, the FBI has black criminals carrying out 38 per cent of murders, compared to 31.1 per cent for whites. The offender's race was "unknown" in 29.1 per cent of cases.
What about violent crime more generally? FBI arrest rates are one way into this. Over the last three years of data -- 2011 to 2013 -- 38.5 per cent of people arrested for murder, manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault were black.
3. Black crime is even more prevalent in the country's largest cities and counties.
Heather Mac Donald writes in her book The War on Cops: How the New Attack on Law and Order Makes Everyone Less Safe that in Chicago, IL, blacks committed 76 percent of all homicides, despite composing 35 percent of the city's population. Blacks also accounted for 78 percent of all juvenile arrests. Whites, who compose 28 percent of the city's population, committed 4 percent of its homicides and 3.5 percent of its juvenile arrests. Hispanics, who compose 30 percent of the city's population, committed 19 percent of its homicides and 18 percent of its juvenile arrests. (Another eye-opening fact from Mac Donald's research is that only 26 percent of murder cases were solved in Chicago.)
Blacks are 10 percent of the population in Los Angeles, CA, but commit 42 percent of its robberies and 34 percent of its felonies. Whites make up 29 percent of the city's population, and commit 5 percent of its robberies and 13 percent of its felonies.
In New York City, blacks committed "75 percent of all shootings, 70 percent of all robberies, and 66 percent of all violent crime," despite only composing 23 percent of the population, said Mac Donald in a Hillsdale speech. Additionally, 2009 Bureau of Justice Statistics numbers show that in 2009, "blacks were charged with 62 percent of robberies, 57 percent of murders and 45 percent of assaults in the 75 biggest counties in the country, despite only comprising roughly 15 percent of the population in these counties."
4. There were almost 6,000 blacks killed by other blacks in 2015.
By contrast, only 258 blacks were killed by police gunfire that year.
5. The percentage of blacks arrested for crimes is consistent with police reports.
This is according to the National Crime Victimization Survey, as well as this 1985 study:
Quote:"Even allowing for the existence of discrimination in the criminal justice system, the higher rates of crime among black Americans cannot be denied," wrote James Q. Wilson and Richard Herrnstein in their classic 1985 study, "Crime and Human Nature." "Every study of crime using official data shows blacks to be overrepresented among persons arrested, convicted, and imprisoned for street crimes." This was true decades before the authors put it to paper, and it remains the case decades later.
"The overrepresentation of blacks among arrested persons persists throughout the criminal justice system," wrote Wilson and Herrnstein. "Though prosecutors and judges may well make discriminatory judgments, such decisions do not account for more than a small fraction of the overrepresentation of blacks in prison."
This data disproves the notion that racism is what drives higher rates of arrests among the blacks than among whites or broader America.
6. According to Riley, "Black crime rates were lower in the 1940s and 1950s, when black poverty was higher" and "racial discrimination was rampant and legal."
If it's not racism and poverty that are blame for the high black crime rate, then what is?
7. According to Mac Donald, "A straight line can be drawn between family breakdown and youth violence."
As economist Thomas Sowell points out, before the 1960s "most black children were raised in two-parent families." In 2013, over 72 percent of blacks were born out of wedlock. In Cook County -- which Chicago belongs to -- 79 percent of blacks were born to single mothers in 2003, while only 15 percent of whites were born to single mothers.
"Until that gap closes, the crime gap won't close, either," writes Mac Donald.

Law enforcement advocate Heather MacDonald documented some new statistics in the New York Post that challenge the narrative coming from the Black Lives Matter movement.
Focusing on Chicago, America's petri dish of liberal policies, MacDonald reveals that arrests and overall policing is in decline in the city:
Quote:Arrests are down 28 percent this year in the Windy City, the lowest since at least 2001, according to the Chicago Sun-Times, and less than half what they were in 2010. Drug arrests are down by half. Pedestrian stops were down 82 percent by early fall.
But rather than launching it into a new golden age of peace and prosperity, Chicago is experiencing a renaissance of crime:
Quote:So far this year, 4,334 people have been shot in Chicago: one person every two hours. Almost all the victims have been black. The police have shot 25 people, virtually all armed or otherwise dangerous -- less than .6 percent of the total.
This is a drastic increase from last year, when 2,989 people were shot, and there were 492 homicides. Shootings have increased 45 percent over last year, and homicides have increased 56.5 percent, according to the Chicago Tribune. Less than 1 percent of the shootings have been by the police, and yet Black Lives Matter focuses on this minuscule number instead of the real threat to the black community represented by the rest of the 99.4 percent of shootings.
MacDonald says the real culprit is what academics and social justice groups have actually advocated as the solution to high crime rates: de-policing and the undoing of "broken window" policies that help deter greater crimes by targeting lesser criminals before they get a chance to expand their criminal activities.
She hopes that this will highlight the devastating consequences of de-policing to prevent other cities from implementing the policies that have caused so much misery in the beleaguered city of Chicago.

Scoreboard, baby. Blacks still running far behind George Gollin, who destroyed medical clinics in West Africa that could have saved millions. Chlamydia no doubt feels the inherited Guilt of Gollinhood, as well she should.

George Gollin Wrote:Dr. Carson is an idiot.
Yet people who actually know what they are talking about agree that Dr. Ben Carson is absolutely correct.
Ben Carson Is Right About The Poverty Mindset -- Ask Lottery Winners
Quote:. . . According to the National Endowment for Financial Education, 70 percent of people who get sudden wealth (winning lotteries or favorable settlements to lawsuits, for example), declare bankruptcy within a few years -- meaning they're worse off than before they became rich.
And yes, "mindset" appears to be largely responsible.
According to endowment spokesman Paul Golden, "If you've never had the comfort of financial security before, if you were really eking out a living from paycheck to paycheck, if you've never managed money before, it can be really confusing."
The kind of immediate escape from poverty Carson described is no substitute for years of hard work and good habits which -- along with favorable circumstances and good luck -- can lead to gradual advancement. In fact, there's a joke among financial planners: "If you have an enemy, give him a lottery ticket."
. . . Sometimes, Carson may seem to downplay the struggles of the poor because his own origin story is so extraordinary. In the 1950s and 1960s, when Sonya Carson raised her two boys in Detroit, it wasn't uncommon for people to say regarding blacks, "Well, he's no brain surgeon" and "Well, he's no rocket scientist" But through her tough love -- which a grateful Carson often praises -- by the 1980s she was the mother of one of each (Curtis Carson is an aeronautical engineer).
Mrs. Carson's astonishing accomplishment may indeed make her a unicorn. But don't mistake Secretary Carson's effusive praise for his mother as a literal belief that good parenting alone could end poverty. Ignore the media distortions and liberal mockery. Carson's analysis of the connection between mindset and mobility is actually spot-on.
So if Dr. Ben Carson is correct, why does George Gollin try to degrade him with juvenile insults? The obvious answer is that this is just one more example of the fact that George Gollin is a racist who hates black people, especially successful black people. Dr. Ben Carson is the US Secretary of HUD; George Gollin is a nobody, a loser who pissed away half a million dollars only to finish in third place to a guy who spent nothing, and a convicted ethics violator. And George Gollin knows that his homely, self-described "Radical Lesbian Cheerleader" offspring demonstrates that he can't compete with Sonya Carson when it comes raising kids either.

Gollin has been asleep on Twitter since 2015, then he suddenly starts tweeting up a storm. Dark matter and black holes? Something to do with physics, or does Gollin have those inner city young men of color on his mind again?
Betsy DeVos is "not qualified to speak publicy on environmental issues." Right, not like Gollin, who is an expert in everything just because he thinks so.
Does this resurgence of Gollin's Twitter flatulence indicate he is contemplating another run for public office? Maybe there is a vacancy in the Champaign County dog catcher's office. If George Gollin hadn't been convicted of all those ethics violations . . .he still wouldn't be qualified.

Gollin regurgitates loony libtard talking points and thinks he's a pundit. He just can't suppress his sociopathy. Maybe that's why his daughter was trying to make time with that lesbian glass-blower. She figures she can help gollin with his repressed desires.
"Blow it, daddy!"
