YOU CAN'T KEEP DOING THE SAME THINGS AND EXPECT DIFFERENT RESULTS

FROM: HELEN BURLESON

 

YOU CAN'T KEEP DOING THE SAME THINGS AND EXPECT DIFFERENT RESULTS

 

 

You can't keep doing the SAME things and expect to get DIFFERENT RESULTS- That's the definition of INSANITY! (Send to all you know who live in District 227: Matteson, Richton Park, Park Forest, Olympia Fields, Country Club Hills)

 

The reason why we have a failed school system is because we keep electing, reelecting and then reelecting the same people over and over again. 100% is supposed to be all you can get. If only 30 some percent of the students of this district are meeting academic standards, does that meet your standard? What about the other 70%? If you happen to be a parent of one of the 30%, you are probably satisfied and you are probably one of the parents that toots the horn of this FAILED SCHOOL SYSTEM and you are pleased with the STATUS QUO!

 

I want you to know that I do not and NEVER had a child to attend 227 because I live in a different district. My children are grown and successful. So, why do I care? BECAUSE ALL BLACK CHILDREN ARE MY CHILDREN AND ARE MY GIVEN RESPONSIBILITY TO SEE THAT THEY BECOME ALL THAT THEY CAN BE! Remember, as a people, we will NEVER achieve full equity and parity in this country until we have equal access to all the resources available to Americans considered nonBLack. If they can kick President Barack Obama and his family around, then what do you think will happen to your children?

 

WAKE UP, BLACK PEOPLE! STAND UP BLACK PEOPLE! FIGHT FOR WHAT IS YOURS! You didn't get your 40 acres and a mule; but, the least you should get from the toil of your ancestors, who were by law, not allowed to learn to read and write, IS TO GET THE QUALITY EDUCATION THAT WILL GIVE YOUR CHILDREN A CHANCE TO COMPETE FOR JOBS WITH WELL PREPARED WHITE CHILDREN! Helen Burleson, 9 year member Flossmoor Board of Education, District 161, 1972-1981, member of the IL State Board of Education, 1981-1983 and recommended the late Ronald Blackstone to Gov. Thompson to fill my vacancy when I resigned. During a special election for District 161, I surreptitiously manipulated the system and got a second Black school board member in, Benjamin Deberry and was responsible for getting the first Black teachers hired in District 161, Victor Scotti was the first and Art Byrd, a current resident of Olympia Fields was the second. Why did I do that? Because our children need positive role models that look like them, it was my responsibility to do so. .......... HELEN BURLESON

Cheryl Coleman's Candidate Endorsement - Michael Holmes Sr: Rich Township SD227 School Board

Michael Holmes Sr

Constituents, 

I am a resident of Country Club Hills, married for thirty year, father of four

sons, three of whom graduated from Rich Central High School. I know first-

hand the importance of a quality education, supporting parent involvement

and an engaged community. I have volunteered in the community as the

President of Monarch Place Homeowner's Association, as a basketball

coach, and served as CCH Park District Commissioner. My current

position of Associate Director, Office of Community and Positive Youth

Development for Illinois Department of Human Services allows me to travel

to Springfield, Illinois bi-weekly, which has given me the understanding of the

pension reform, State funding and the legislative process. As a Rich Township

School District 227 Board Member, I will support a practical curriculum at the

middle school level that will better support the High Schools. I will also support

professional development for teachers and other staff, and the establishing of

a family education center that will enhance the quality of education.

Michael Holmes, Sr.

Subject: GSU sponsors 2nd Congressional District Candidate Forum

 

University Park, IL,  Governors State University will host a forum for candidates seeking the vacant Congressional seat in Illinois' Second District. The forum, in GSU's Center for Performing Arts, takes place at 6 p.m. on Thursday, February 7.

 

During the forum, candidates will be asked how they can best serve the residents of the Second District, which includes sections of Chicago's south side and parts of southern Cook County, areas in Will County, and all of Kankakee County. Mike Flannery, Political Editor for WFLD FOX 32, will moderate the forum, which isfree and open to the public.

 

The Second District Congressional seat was held for 17 years by Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr., a Chicago Democrat. He resigned November 22, citing reasons of health. Seventeen Democrats and five Republicans have filed to run for the Second District seat. The primary election takes place February 26, with the special election for the seat to follow on April 9.

 

In presenting the forum, GSU is partnering with League of Women Voters chapters in Homewood-Flossmoor, Dolton-Harvey-Riverdale, and the Park Forest area.

 

Governors State University, the only public university in the Chicago Southland region, serves more than 7,000 students in undergraduate, graduate, doctoral, and certificate programs.

 

GSU has the most affordable undergraduate tuition in Illinois and is nationally recognized for its innovative Dual Degree Program, providing a quality, seamless pathway from community college to university graduation. In 2014, GSU will become a full-service, four-year university, admitting its first freshman class and introducing apartment and suite style housing.

 

Governors State University is located at 1 University Parkway, University Park, Illinois.
