Over the past six years as a Fayetteville City Councilwoman, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting many of you across our city. Perhaps our paths crossed at church, at
a community meeting, or in line at the Fort Bragg commissary. Wherever we’ve met,
there’s a good chance that I’ve asked you to tell me something about your life or asked
you to tell me your story. Our encounters have been a source of inspiration as I
continue to serve the city I’ve grown to love.
Together we’ve had great successes and have dealt with very sensitive and
difficult issues in our community. While you may not have always agreed with my
positions, particularly dealing with racial profiling, my goal has always been to make
the best decisions I could with the information I had. In this case, I was determined to
find real solutions to a pressing issue while complying with the law. While the courts
ultimately supported beliefs, I am most proud to have made the motion to the City
Council to fund cameras in police cars and study circles; it passed unanimously. My
efforts are making a real difference in Fayetteville. I will continue to work to ensure the
rights of all of our citizens are protected.
In the future I will do a better job helping you to understand my positions; it’s
always better for you to hear things first hand. Please know that I am committed to
having a Police Department that is RESPECTFUL OF its citizens and RESPECTED
BY its citizens. As your Mayor, I will do everything possible to make sure that
happens; it’s a commitment I am making to each of you. In return, I ask you to partner
with the Police Department to build relationships and reduce crime in our community.
There are some that believe this election can be bought. They will misrepresent
who I am and what I believe. It’s the oldest political strategy in the book, used time and
time again. You know it and I know it, so let’s not fall for it. There is clearly no other
candidate for Mayor that understands your experiences, is more committed or better
qualified to lead this city. I have a proven record of leadership and results that have
improved your quality of life. Let’s resist the diversionary tactics of this political
season and “Keep Our Eyes on the Prize”.
Your vote will determine the outcome of this election and your voice with set a
pathway for opportunity and success. With your support, I look forward to serving
this community with passion and vision as the first African American woman Mayor of
our All-America City. I believe all things are possible.
One stop voting begins September 19th – October 5th at the Cumberland County
Board of Elections located at 227 Fountainhead Lane. You can cast your early vote
from of 8-5, Monday through Friday and Saturday from 9-1. The primary election is

VOTE AUDREY “SISTER” RAY FOR CITY COUNCIL DISTRICT 3
Proven Experience Counts
This is our new day.
We can make the first step together
to move District 3 and the City of
Fayetteville forward. My name is
Audrey Ray, and I am affectionately
known as “Sister Ray.” The name
“Sister” is tied to my faith. Many of you may know me
from Rise Newspaper and Gospel Showcase television
show. My work in the community is a testament to my
sincerity and commitment to engaging with others, and
empowering and celebrating them.
"My vision for District 3" - I will work to build trust. I
believe elected officials need to be accessible to residents,
and service for me is a passion. I support the Vision 2024
statement of having “a sustainable community with
opportunities for individuals and families to thrive.”
"On the Move Summit- A plan for action." We are better
together, and I want to create partnerships that strive to
enhance the quality of life. During the first six months after
my election, I will host an On the Move Summit. We will
try to identify factors that have contributed to the decline of
vibrant neighborhoods and come up with specific goals that
will be reviewed each quarter. We will look at the history of
the neighborhood and how to recapture what made it great. I
know that citizens want to be involved. One year ago, I held
a “State of the Community Census Forum,” at Fayetteville
State University. Thirty groups were mobilized as a result -we knocked on doors and encouraged 5,000 historically
undercounted households to participate in the US
Census. The impact was more federal dollars for
Fayetteville.

We’ve all heard reports that too much sun exposure can
lead to skin cancer. But can too little sun be dangerous
as well? Health experts say yes.
may need more than 20 times as much exposure to
sunlight as those with fairer skin to produce the same
amount of vitamin D.
Too little sun can lead to vitamin D deficiency, a
condition that can be dangerous, particularly for
African Americans.
What can you do to improve the level of vitamin D
in your blood? First, a little bit of sun exposure goes a
long way. As little as 10 minutes a few times a week can
produce thousands of units of vitamin D. Slightly more
time is required for those with darker skin.
Vitamin D is produced in response to sun exposure.
It is vital to your body’s absorption of calcium. People
with vitamin D deficiency are able to absorb only
one-third as much calcium as those with sufficient
levels. Calcium is needed to build strong bones and
healthy muscles, so vitamin D is key to avoiding
bone-softening diseases like rickets and osteoporosis.
Current studies, however, show it can also lessen your
risk for developing conditions such as cancer, diabetes
and cardiovascular disease.
Yet geneticist Rick Kittles, an associate professor at the
University of Chicago, warns that nearly 75 percent of
African Americans are vitamin D insufficient.

Calcium supplements with vitamin D included are also

of foods that are a good source of vitamin D. Among
these foods are fatty fish, such as salmon or mackerel,
egg yolks, breakfast cereals, milk and some juices.
When in doubt, visit your physician. Kittles says your

North Carolina’s Tea Party Nightmares
By Jesse Jackson, Sr.
NNPA Columnist
Black Press USA- North Carolina —
once poster child for the New South —
now displays the nightmares spawned by
the Tea Party right no longer restrained by
the Voting Rights Act after the Supreme
Court’s conservative gang of five disemboweled it in the Shelby case.
In North Carolina, Republicans took
the General Assembly in 2010 and the governorship in 2012. The takeover received
rather unprecedented support from one
right-wing multimillionaire, Art Pope —
who, according to progressive publication
The American Prospect, singlehandedly
provided about 80 percent of the funding
for the state’s conservative groups.
Upon taking control, the Republicans
began systematically dismantling the social
infrastructure of the state. They slashed
taxes on the top 5 percent and raised them
on the bottom 95 percent. They eliminated
the earned-income tax credit for 900,000
low-wage workers. They cut Medicaid
coverage for 500,000. They ended unemployment benefits for 170,000. They threw
about 30,000 kids out of pre-K, while
transferring $90 million from public schools
to vouchers. They voted to allow guns purchased without a background check to be
carried in parks, restaurant and bars. As
the Rev. William Barber II, president of the
North Carolina NAACP, put it: “They’ve
ported voter registration drives and ended pre-registration of 16- and
17-year-olds. They require more frequent purges of voter rolls, and
prohibit extending poll hours on Election Day, even if there are long
lines still waiting to vote. They even eliminated Citizen Awareness
Month that encouraged citizens to register and vote. North Carolina
had featured some of the most enlightened election laws and ranked
in the top 15 states of voter turnout nationally. With passage of this
law, they are intent on driving that down.
Now the question is whether the citizens of North Carolina will
allow their government to be hijacked by deep pocket donors and
their rights trampled by antidemocratic zealots.
The Rev. Barber says this will not stand. “If you think you can
take away our voting rights, you’ll have a headache,” he vowed.
He started organizing what became Moral Mondays, weekly demonstrations that drew thousands in protest to the state’s capital. By
the end of July, some 900 people had been arrested in nonviolent civil
disobedience. Now, when the legislature closes down in August, the
Rev. Barber plans a bus tour through 25 counties to register citizens
to vote and to protest the cruel measures.
With its decisions opening the floodgates on corporate money in
Citizens United and rolling back the Voting Rights Act, the conservative gang of five on the Supreme Court has opened the way for the
North Carolina nightmare. And North Carolina is not alone.
Across the country, Republicans are seeking to roll back voting
rights even as they push to gut vital social programs. Citizens of conscience have no choice but to rally once more to protect our rights.
Moral Monday in North Carolina shows the way. In North Carolina, the reaction to the reaction may just have begun.
drank all the Tea Party they could drink
and sniffed all the Koch that they could
sniff.”
These radically reactionary measures
didn’t exactly meet with popular approval.
The approval rating of the state legislature is down to about 23 percent. So Republicans set out to consolidate their unpopular rule by gerrymandering districts
to re-segregate voters and weaken their
opponents’ base. And they just pushed
through the most radical assault on voting
rights in modern memory.

fulfilling God’s purpose. It also motivates us to stay focused
and be equipped to serve God.
With everything that is going on today with the economy
as well as countriesin conflicts, it is easy to lose focus and give
up. However, as people and most important as women, we have
to remain encouraged and continue to build the Kingdom of God.
Our theme this year is: Ladies Rise To The Occasion!
“Be Equipped To Serve”.
As ladies, we serve in various capacities as mothers, wives,
and through our careers. In addition, we serve spiritually, as
Pastors, Pastors Wives dutifully supporting the vision of the
church and working faithfully out front and behind the scenes.
Sometimes, we might get tired, but we can’t let the weary and
faint slow us down. If we stay strong, we will get a great reward.
If any man serve me let him follow me; and where I am,
there shall also my servant be: If any man serves me, him will my
Father honor. John 22:26
“I want to bring ladies together at the Rainbow Brunch to
share and encourage each other to grow smarter, stronger and
wiser, “ Lady G said.. “This is the perfect opportunity to make
time for ourselves. It also gives us a chance to address some of
the life changing health issues we face. Heart disease; diabetes;
obesity, stress issues, and strokes are a few example. All of these
can critically impact our lives.”
Lady G says, “We need some ‘Me Time’ to relax and pamper ourselves. Then, we can serve in the natural as well as the
spiritual. To care for our families, we need to be healthy, and
stay active in our careers. This is especially true for those who
also work tirelessly in the ministry.
Pastor Anthony and Lady G conceived the idea for the conference to bring awareness of their church, Second Chance Ministries. “We are new pastors in the community (9 months). This
conference also serves as a fundraiser for our Annual Toy Drive
that supports neglected and abused children. Sometimes we get
so caught up in what’s going on around us, we don’t stop to
enjoy what’s in front of us, our families, and friends—those who
make a difference in our lives. Let’s come together and impact
each other’s lives.

FORMULA FOR OVERCOMING YOUR
INFERIORITY COMPLEX
We could not begin to tell you how many ask the question,
“How can I rid myself of my inferiority complex?” Perhaps nothing
so plagues and harasses human beings as the crippling, misery-producing feeling of personal inadequacy. You can be cured of this
trouble even though you have probably suffered from it since childhood.
You do not need to shrink before anybody or anything, and in
the next fifteen minutes, you can start the process which will lead to
the end of your inferiority feelings.
1. Stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself
succeeding. Your mind will seek to develop this picture. Never
think of yourself as failing. That is most dangerous, for the mind
always tries to complete what it pictures. So ALWAYS picture
“success.”
2. Whenever a negative thought about yourself comes to mind,
deliberately voice a positive thought to cancel it out.
3. Do not build up obstacles in your imagination. Depreciate
ever so-called obstacle. Minimize them. Difficulties must be studied to be eliminated, but they must be seen for only what they are
and must not be inflated by fear thoughts.
4. Do not be awestruck by other people and try to copy them.
Nobody can be you as efficiently as YOU can. Remember also
that most people, despite their confident appearance and demeanor,
are as scared of things as you are.
5. Repeat ten times a day these words, “If God be FOR me,
who can be AGAINST me.” (Repeat them NOW slowly and confidently.)
6. Get a competent counselor to help you understand why you
do what you do. Learn the origin of your inferiority feelings which
often begin in childhood. Self-knowledge leads to a cure.
7. Ten times each day, practice the following affirmation, repeating it out loud if possible. “I can do all things through Christ
who giveth me the strength.” Repeat those words NOW. These
words constitute the most powerful antidote on earth to inferiority
thoughts.
8. Make a true estimate of your own ability, then raise it ten
percent. Do not become egotistical, but develop a wholesome selfrespect. Do that NOW.
9. Put yourself in God’s hands and believe you are NOW receiving all the power you need.
