  • Official Press Statement the Virus of Voter Suppression Is Now The
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: LaToya Henry March 31, 2021 (313) 447-6404 OFFICIAL PRESS STATEMENT THE VIRUS OF VOTER SUPPRESSION IS NOW THE EPIDEMIC WITHIN OUR DEMOCRACY! Rev. Dr. Wendell Anthony, President, Detroit Branch NAACP DETROIT – Standing underneath the canvass of a notorious slave plantation in Wilkes County Georgia, Governor Brian Kemp and six white male Republicans signed into law a voter suppression bill. Among other things it makes it illegal to give food and water to Black people while standing in line to vote. The state of Florida under Governor Ron DeSantis is now considering the same law. It reminds one of the era when it was illegal to the point of death to give Black’s food, water, and shelter as they escaped from slavery to freedom. The symbolism of this historic trauma and continuous fallout from the antebellum period of enslavement to the 21st century of resentment could not be more clear. A Black female Georgia State Representative Park Cannon, who knocked on the door of the governor to observe the signing of this law, was handcuffed and arrested 50 seconds after her first knock. This act was in stark contrast to the hundreds of white insurrectionists who stormed the nation’s capital, knocking down doors, breaking windows, and injuring over 160 officers and security personnel. The insurrection led to the death of five people, among them police officer Brian D. Sicknick. They beat police officers with American flags and their poles while attempting to stop democracy from proceeding on course. It is in contrast to those who were involved in last year’s storming of the Michigan State capital with AK-47’s, AR-15’s, side arms, confederate flags, and hangman’s nooses.

  • CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE October 20, 2017
    MCALVEY MERCHANT & ASSOCIATES CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE October 20, 2017 CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE WEEK OF OCTOBER 16, 2017 Integrity, Individual Attention. Precision Strategy. Proven Results SENATE PASSES BILL TO SHIFT SOME MILLAGE FUNDS TO CHARTER SCHOOLS A bill introduced by Sen. David Hildebrand (R-Lowell), and passed by the Senate this week would give charter schools access to funds from enhancement millages which were levied by intermediate school districts. Currently, school districts use enhancement millages for various projects, including hiring teachers, technology upgrades, purchasing materials and more. Supporters of the bill, which passed in the Senate 23-14, say that it makes funding for students more fair because it spreads these funds to charter schools in the districts. According to the sponsor, the bill would not apply to existing enhancement millages, but it would require districts to include charter schools in millage renewals. Critics, including Sen. Curtis Hertel (D-East Lansing) and Senate Minority Leader Jim Ananich (D- Flint) said that the bill stretches school funding too far, and that voters originally approved the millages knowing that the money would go to traditional schools. Six counties in the state have passed them including Kent, Kalamazoo, Midland, Monroe, Muskegon, and Wayne.

  • The Second Twenty Years, 1971-1991
    Northwestern Michigan College The Second IVvenfy Years 1971 -1991 Al Shumsky Assisted by Carole Marlatt NORTHWESTERN MICHIGAN COLLEGE The Second Twenty Years 1971-1991 A1 Shumsky Assisted by Carole Marlatt February 1994 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thanks are due many people who helped with this project. First to the two people without whom it could not have been done: Tim Quinn and Carole Marlatt. Tim initiated the project and supported it with released time, and with no directions whatsoever beyond "Have a good time!" Carole not only prepared the manuscript, assembled the rosters in the appendix, chose the pictures, and both provided her own and edited my memories; she also is the one who recorded the Board minutes for these twenty years and then indexed them and preserved the hard copy so it was available to this amateur historian. (She, in fact, is the one to go to if you want to know what really went on during these years.) Thanks are also due these many others who graciously provided information or corroborated memories: Bob Buttleman, Doug Campbell, Becky Chartier, Jan Gasnik, Kathleen Guy, Chet Janik, Bill King, George Kuhn, Keith MacPhee, Nancy McArthur, Shelley Merrill, Dick Minor, Shirley Okerstrom, Barbara Raehl, Joe Rogers, PatSalathiel, Bill Shaw, Don Shikoski, Chuck Shreve, Robbie Teahen, Bob Warner, and Steve Westphal. Recognition is also due the hundreds of people—Board members, faculty and staff—whose names do not appear in this account, but who in fact constituted the College. Without them, there would be no history to write. I apologize to all whose contributions have not been specifically mentioned.
