We are grateful for the founding of the Howard County Foundation for Black Educational and Cultural Achievement, Inc. 1 he Howard County Foundation for Black Educational and Cultural Achievement, Inc. is a community-based non-profit organization which has served as a resource for the encouragement and T financial assistance to African-American youth in Howard County, Maryland for more than three decades. The primary focus of this organization is to provide scholarships to graduating, high school seniors in their pursuit of post-secondary education and training. The outgrowth of a grassroots effort by sixteen concerned African-American parents who met initially on September 16, 1977 to contemplate ways in which to maximize the achievement efforts of black students in the county, this organization has evolved to its current status. These sixteen parents, along with two others who joined the group shortly after its inception, operated under the name of Concerned Parents for Educational Excellence (CPEE). They tackled the job of advocating for their children forthright. Overcoming many obstacles, such as the lack of operating funds, apathy, and differences of opinion as to their direction—they persevered. Within the first couple of years following their initial meeting, this small group of determined parents sought 501©3 status from the Internal Revenue Service, investigated and accessed funding from a number of sources, established scholarship criteria (based upon scholastic achievement, extra-curricular activities and community involvement of the applicant) and changed their name, thus the establishment of “The Howard County Foundation for Black Educational and Cultural Achievement, Inc.” (hereinafter referred to as “The Foundation”). The first group of students was awarded scholarships by The Foundation in 1979— a crowning achievement! Each year since that time, with the exception of 1985 and 1986, when the organization took a hiatus, The Foundation has awarded college scholarships to qualified African-American high school graduates of Howard County. Since its inception, the chief source of funding for The Foundation’s scholarships has been the African- American community, in keeping with its original ideal as a self-help, grassroots organization. Solicitations were made from black families, individuals, businesses and other community organizations. A unique strategy was utilized in which a donor could become a Foundation “member” for the amount of $52 (based on the concept of $1 per week, per year). As the organization has evolved, the donor base has broadened considerably. At this point, funding is received from a variety of sources, including businesses, fraternities, sororities, churches and other organizations, both for profit and non-profit. For many years, the sum of $1,000 represented the basic scholarship award. Quite often a lottery drawing was utilized, thus embracing the element of fairness. Some years, the funding has been large enough to underwrite an award for each applicant, making the lottery unnecessary. In recent years, a book award has been instituted. This is given to each qualified applicant who does not receive a scholarship. In 2007, the amount of the basic scholarship award was increased to $1,500. Whereas the scholarship program has been the principal activity of The Foundation, other areas have also been explored. Many of the alternative events have included a cultural aspect and also served as fundraisers. This category includes sponsoring trips to Broadway shows in New York, Book Fairs, a performance at Toby’s Dinner Theatre, to name a few. Other significant activities are the college tours offered to students, most notably, the trips to Washington, Oberlin and Vanderbilt Universities for the period 1995-2002. (These trips were sponsored in conjunction with and were funded by Washington University). In addition, tours of black colleges were implemented by The Foundation in 1997, utilizing funds from a grant provided by Associated Black Charities (ABC). Special awards were established over the years in memory of individuals having a legacy of service to the community. The following Special Awards are listed below, with date of initiation. 2 Delores P. Harper (1979): Community activist and early Foundation supporter, along with husband, Robert, who funded the Award for many years. Dr. James F. Cooper (1983): Founding member and early supporter of Foundation; Practicing Psychiatrist. Award has been funded by wife Jean, daughter and son-in-law for many years. Gilda W. Lewis (1987): Founding member of the Foundation. Past President of Columbia Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, who designated scholarship in her name. The Sorority has funded the award at $1,000 or more per year for thirty-one years. Since its inception, The Foundation has employed various fundraising strategies. In addition, the donor base has been broadened to include a variety of organizations from the larger community who have given assistance. The following entries will attest to the success of these endeavors. Adopt-a-Student Program (1989): Student may be “adopted” in honor or memory of loved one. Minimum contribution is $500. Has been very popular (see chart elsewhere in this program). Hammond High School Black Cultural Awareness Club (1989): Held fundraiser for The Foundation. Similar clubs from other high schools participated. Rotary Club, Columbia Town Center (1990): The Foundation received donation for the first time. Columbia Foundation (1990): Since that time, has provided annual operating grants to The Foundation. Columbia Foundation (1999): Selected The Foundation to be the recipient of matching Endowment Funds for three consecutive years. The maximum matching grant of $5,000 was exceeded each year. Howard County Volunteer Community Organization of the Year (2001): Named by County Executive and County Council—expression of appreciation

  • The Trump Presidency, Journalism, and Democracy
    The Trump Presidency, Journalism, and Democracy Edited by Robert E. Gutsche, Jr. First published 2018 ISBN 13:978-1-138-30738-4 (hbk) ISBN 13:978-1-315-14232-6 (ebk) Chapter 7 The Hell that Black People Live Trump’s Reports to Journalists on Urban Conditions Carolyn Guniss CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 7 The Hell that Black People Live Trump’s Reports to Journalists on Urban Conditions Carolyn Guniss It’s February 16, 2017. Donald J. Trump has been in the White House as Commander-in-Chief for just about a month. Trump holds a press conference to announce that he had nominated Alexander Acosta, a Hispanic man, as the U.S. Secretary of Labor. He uses the moment to update Americans about the “mess at home and abroad” that he inherited. He also took questions from journalists at his first press conference as president. Trump takes a question from April Ryan, a veteran White House cor- respondent for American Urban Radio Networks. She has been in that role since 1997, is in the process of covering her fourth U.S. president, and serves as the radio network’s Washington, D.C. bureau chief. Standing about midpoint, to the left of the room for the viewers, she signals to Trump that she wants to ask a question. Trump does what he does best when dealing with people of color: He finds a way to offend Ryan. “Yes, oh, this is going to be a bad question, but that’s OK,” he said. It is unclear what Trump meant by the statement, but whatever he meant, it wasn’t positive.

  • Sean Spicer Is the News the Relationship Between Sean Spicer and the White House Press Corps by Danielle Selman Julian a Th
    SEAN SPICER IS THE NEWS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SEAN SPICER AND THE WHITE HOUSE PRESS CORPS BY DANIELLE SELMAN JULIAN A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE AUCKLAND UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF COMMUNICATION STUDIES (MCS) JULY 3, 2018 SCHOOL OF COMMUNICATION STUDIES Abstract This research concerns the relationship between former White House press secretary Sean Spicer and the White House press corps, analysed through the reportage of the daily White House press briefing. This relationship can be seen as a continuation of Trump’s relationship with the news media during his candidacy. This thesis quantitatively measures the reportage by the White House press corps using content analysis (Krippendorff, 2002), and qualitative analysis of the reportage using journalism discourse analysis (Wodak & Meyers, 2001; Fairclough, 2010). These analyses are achieved by analysing three cases that became headlines due to the moment of contention between Spicer and the press corps. These case studies are: 1) The initial press briefing, when Spicer lectured the press corps for falsely reporting the size of Trump’s inauguration’s crowd. 2) Press Briefing #30, when Spicer forcefully instructed reporter April D. Ryan to ‘stop shaking her head.' 3) Press Briefing #36, when Spicer controversially compared Syrian President Bashar al- Assad to Nazi Party Leader Adolf Hitler and incorrectly claimed that Hitler did not use chemical weapons. Online news articles about these case studies from 30 media outlets that have journalists in the White House press corps have been selected. The thesis then compares and contrasts the case studies’ press briefing transcripts to the online news articles.
