Virgin Islands Education Bob Marley Tribute Puzzles For Us Teenshop

What are they teaching our girls? Progress is not always easy and nothing stays the same. Just look at what’s going on with “New Harem” (p.2). With so much happening around us, we have to stay healthy (p.13) and keep the faith.

I am inspired by the young ladies in the Virgin Islands (the “VI”) who told me what they love about themselves (p. 11). I am amazed by Byron Lars’ super-fierce Barbie interpretation (p.4) and the types of information available at Puzzles For Us (p.5). Loving the information on the hair and culture of our ancestors in the 1880’s (p.7), I am cautious about the savvy business mind of Nicki Minaj and her evolving self-awareness regarding the weight of responsibility that comes with her new, highly sought-after pop culture status (p.8).

Our Sister Connections (p.4) and Global Partners (p.10) always keep me looking forward as I realize that, one group at a time, we are making a BIG impact. Using technology for self-expression, such as Internet blogs and Sisterhood Agenda’s new Positive Media project (p.7), we hope to inspire a new way of thinking about self-representation.

We are happy that you have joined Sisterhood Agenda in this journey– together, we can do anything! To get even more, we hope to see you in the VI, America’s Caribbean, during our Global Training Academy Summer Series for teenage girls and mothers (p.12). Trust me, there is no place like St. John in beauty, spirit, and convenience. Stay connected as 2011 continues and you will see that there is no better time or place to put Sisterhood on your Agenda.

Teenshop’s 25th Anniversary Gala

Seventy beautiful young ladies from Philadelphia, PA and Los Angeles, CA in long white ball gowns, wearing white gloves and carrying a long-stemmed red rose, were presented to an audience of more than five hundred guests during Teenshop's Cotillion-style Gala. The guest speaker was Dr. Arlene C. Ackerman, Superintendent of the School District of Philadelphia, who delivered an inspiring message that challenged the girls to always strive for excellence.

Teenshop, Inc. was founded in 1985 by Elleanor Jean Hendley, an Emmy Award- winning former Philadelphia CBS television news education reporter and talk show producer and host. Teenshop has become one of the longest running weekend volunteer-based programs dedicated exclusively to the positive development of adolescent females. More than three thousand girls have been enrolled and while participating in the program, no girl drops out of school or becomes a teen parent, and all graduates go to college or professional schools. The Sisterhood curriculum is an innovative series of life skills workshops that include Agenda social graces, character development, financial literacy, health and 3 VOLUME ONE fitness, arts and culture, community service, and college tours. 2011

Enrollment is for girl students thirteen to eighteen who are not teen parents. About one hundred and twenty five girls enroll annually in Teenshop's three Philadelphia chapters and one in Los Angeles, California, each under the direction of five female volunteers.

Black History - The Missing Pages of World History By Kevin Ikim Dunn Publisher/CEO, Puzzles For Us

Our venerable historian, the late Dr. John Henrik Clarke, often remarked that what we refer to as Black history is really the missing pages of world history. I couldn’t agree more.

When viewed in this light, Black history then becomes something more than simply a spectacle of events that only gets acknowledged once a year during Black History Month.

Instead, as part of the larger fabric of world history, it becomes a rich ongoing nar- rative that highlights, recognizes and acknowledges the contributions of people of color to the development and evolution of world cultures and civilizations. Both then and now.

Because in truth, we did contribute in a major way and we still do. Yet, there is a flip side to this as well.

And that is: If Black history is as Dr. Clarke puts it, simply the missing pages of world history, then what happened to those pages? And why are they missing?

Which brings me to one of the reasons why I get so much enjoyment out of creating the Puzzles For Us series. It’s the research. Sisterhood Agenda I remember a few years ago I was listening to a lecture by Dr. Ivan Van 5 Sertimer and in it he was explaining how Egyptian sphinxes had been VOLUME ONE found in Siberia, Russia. Egyptian sphinxes in Russia?!? Siberia??? 2011

And just last year I was reading a book called Africa Counts by Claudia Zaslavsky and learned that the game tic- tac-toe had originated among Africans in ancient Egypt. Imagine that.

Then there’s the Black Statue of Liberty (yes, there really is a Black Statue of Liberty). There is a book in the Schomburg library that has a picture that is considered to be an early model of the Statue of Liberty.

And check this out: Weren’t most of us taught in school that the North was the anti-slavery good guys and the South was the pro-slavery bad guys? Well, imagine my surprise when I found out that one of the largest slave trad- ing centers in the country was not in the South, but was located right here in New York at 60 Wall Street . . . among the so-called good guys! Say what?

But I guess by now the point is pretty clear. That we have to tell our own story, in our own words, and through our own eyes, otherwise, there will always be pages missing from the narrative.

And remember, history is not just something that happened a long time ago.

Sisterhood Agenda 7 VOLUME ONE 2011

This is Black History month, when we are more readily able to see and hear stories about our legacy in this nation. The journey and great achievements made by people of African descent are examined and applauded. It's the one time that some intellectuals, writers, historians and professors of African History and culture find themselves so sought after they can barely handle the requests for their presence at speaking engagements.

Recently my beloved found a long-lost picture of his great-grandmother Ella Barksdale Brown seen here in the middle with some of her classmates of the first graduating class from Spelman Seminary before it became . Ella Barksdale Brown, was an educator, anti-lynching activist, suffragist, and journalist. I posted this picture of her on Facebook and the response was tremendous. It made me realize the power and presence of the ancestors. They seem to be making their mark, being seen and felt in cyberspace. By the way, this great-grandson was surprised further, when finding a treasure-trove of her papers, housed at Yales’s Beinecke Library’s James Weldon Johnson Memorial Collection.

I especially took notice of their natural hair styling of the women in the photo, considering that it was taken in 1884, a period preceding the straightening of hair. Notice the elegance and pride of these women! Cover Story Black Barbie & Cover Story Cover Story Nicki Minaj Fantasy vs. Reality By Angela D. Coleman Barbie has been controversial for decades. Feminists say they encour‐ age negative self‐image and unrealistic expectations, especially about body image. With proportions 36‐18‐38, you do not see any Barbie dolls that represent the “real” body proportions of the average female.

An idealized icon of European American beauty, Barbie became a teenage fashion girl toy in 1959. Black Barbie was first introduced in 1980. But even recent doll experiments demonstrate the fact that Black girls still prefer White dolls and see them as prettier and better than the Black ones. So when a controversial entertainer like Nicki Minaj calls herself Black Barbie, it makes one wonder, is this good for our girls?

Black Barbie and Nicki Minaj… Critics say they are plastic, they don’t represent anything real and they are out for the money. Her persona is more cartoon than real life. Like Barbie, Nicki Minaj has the potential to entertain and the potential to harm in the name of entertainment.

Who is Nicki Minaj? Born in Trinidad on December 8, 1984 as Onika Tanya Maraj, she grew up in Queens, New York.

To escape from problems at home, Nicki made up different alter egos for herself, stating “Fantasy was my reality.”

Minaj's debut album, Pink Friday was released on November 19, 2010. A buzz single, "Massive Attack,” was released in April. In August, Minaj released "Your Love” as the first official single from her debut al‐ bum. Minaj became the first female artist to be in‐ cluded on MTV's Annual Hottest MC List and the first female artist to top the chart by herself since 2002. In October 2010, Minaj became the first artist to have seven songs on the Billboard Hot 100 chart at the same time. Known for her body as much as her music, she is accused of surgically altering her body to fit the Barbie mold. What does she represent? When Nicki first began in the business, she said that she thought that she had to do what other female rap artists did and be very sexual to be successful. Later, she says, "I made a conscious decision to try to tone down the sexiness, I want people—especially young girls—to know that in life, nothing is going to be based on sex appeal. You’ve got to have something else to go with that.” Some people thinks she’s weird. “That’s why I make the goofiest faces,” she says. “I don’t want people to think I’m up here trying to be cute. I’m trying to entertain and entertaining is more than exuding sex appeal.”

Does Nicki Minaj want to uplift women and girls? “I say girls are beautiful and girls are sexy and they need to be told that, and if they don’t have anyone to tell them that and mean it, I’m gonna tell them that.” “I feel like people always wanna define me and I don’t wanna be defined."

What is Nicki Minaj’s business strategy? Yes: “Now...I mean I'm just a business savvy person by nature and I weigh out all my decisions. The average person hears $50,000 and jumps. I hear $50,000 and, you know, I need an explanation with it. I need details, and I'll probably be like that about $50 million. Most artists at my stage in the game don't have a business manager. I have a business manager. I'm talking about and looking over my finances on a regular basis. I'm not doing this to be flashy I'm doing this to secure wealth. Not cash. They're two different things. I've made calculated decisions and people don't always understand my process but they always get it later...I'm wrong every now and then but I'm usually right when it comes to things like that."

Should parents be concerned? A lot of teenage girls like Nicki Minaj. Parents should always be on high‐alert to any new media that your girls are listening to and watching. Entertainers are generally unpredictable and most young people are heavily influenced by what they do.

Summer Abroad Programs for High School Students Summer study and work in foreign countries is always eye opening, especially for teenagers who have stayed close to home. Often, these experiences are life changing. For high school students looking to spend a summer abroad, the options abound: home stays, language classes, volunteer work, internships, student exchanges, and rugged adventures. Scholarships are often available. Here is this year’s WKCD directory of proven programs.

Math Matters Can life be seen as math, when you’re just going into eighth grade? This past summer, as part of our “Practice Project,” WKCD had the chance to “talk math” with middle school students and teachers-in-training at the Providence Summerbridge program. The resulting audio slideshow testifies to the power of math to light students’ minds, especially when it connects to the real world, engaging their curiosity and creativity as problem solvers.

Sick and Tired: Food Activism at One NYC High School “I walked into my first food justice class in New York City during October of last year. After writing ‘food justice’ on the board, I waited for the class to arrive. As the students made their way into the room, it didn’t seem like many of them were taking notice of either the visitor (me) or the chalkboard.” In this first-person account, food activist Andrew Wolf describes how he moved students at Fannie Lou Hamer Freedom High School to become healthy food advocates in their community.

New WKCD College Website for Low-Income and First-Generation Students Five years ago, WKCD created a website for low-income and first- generation students about making it to college and succeeding once there. We drew upon hundreds of indepth interviews with first-generation college students nationwide. Our new site adds the 5,000 high school student voices we gathered in this year's student-led research project about college, "Hear Us Out." It is filled with student advice, videos, tips, and resources. It's unlike any other college website you'll find!

Seven Tips for Preventing “The Silent Killer” by Tatiana Attipoe

African Americans develop hypertension more often than and at an earlier age than Whites and Black women more often than men. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 44.1% of Black women have high blood pressure, a higher percentage than Black men and than White or Mexican men or women.

“Hypertension” is a condition in which blood is pumped through the arteries at a higher than normal rate. This is also known as “high blood pressure”. Normal blood pressure is in the range of 120/80mmHg. Blood pressure is considered to be high when it is above 140/90mmHg. High blood pressure is a risk factor for heart disease and stroke, leading causes of death in the U.S. It is also a risk factor for congestive heart failure, a condition in which the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body’s needs, and kidney disease.

African Americans are also at a greater risk for heart disease and have higher death rates from it. For these reasons, a study released in October 2010 by the International Society on Hypertension in Blacks recommends lowering the threshold at which Blacks begin lifestyle changes to 115/75mmHg and treating hypertension more aggressively.

There is no cure for hypertension, but it is preventable and people who have it can keep it Sisterhood under control by making the following adjustments to their lifestyles: Agenda 13 VOLUME ONE • Eat a healthy diet – high in fruits and vegetables (which contain heart-healthy fiber 2011 and potassium) and low in salt, fat and sodium • Maintain a healthy weight, as being overweight can increase blood pressure • Engage in physical activity for at least 30 minutes on most days of the week • Don’t smoke – smoking can speed up hardening of the arteries and is a risk factor for stroke and heart disease • Limit alcohol – the recommendation for women is no more than one drink per day • Check blood pressure regularly. Many pharmacies have blood pressure machines for public use or sell home monitoring systems • Talk with your doctor regularly and take prescribed blood pressure medication

Hypertension can develop and worsen without symptoms. For this reason it is often referred to as the silent killer. But it doesn’t have to be. If we follow the simple guidelines and make ourselves aware of our conditions, we can empower ourselves to save our lives by taking control of our health.
