Ohio State University shows applying sunscreen with an
SPF of 30 might delay the onset of melanoma. Dr. Christin Burd, assistant professor with the Ohio State University James Comprehensive Cancer Center, says a range
of sunscreens were applied to mice prior to exposure to
UVB light, and all postponed the onset of melanoma and
reduced the incidence of tumors.

Ohio’s elimination of “Golden Week” is
among the policy measures highlighted in a new national report on voting restrictions. A roundup of election laws by the Brennan Center for Justice has shown
that voters in 17 states, including Ohio, will face some
new restrictions for the first time in a presidential election. Among them is the end of “Golden Week,” a sixday period when Ohioans could register and vote at
the same time.

Prince, music legend, dies at 57
Prince, the music legend
who President Barack Obama
said “defined the music of a generation,” died on Thursday at his
home, Paisley Park, in Chanhassen, Minnesota. He was 57.
In Cleveland, Terminal
Tower was lit up in purple Thursday night in honor of Prince. And
Todd Meseck, with Cleveland’s
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and
Museum, said that people are
flocking to the museum to take
pictures at their Prince exhibit.
In a statement, President
Obama said, “Few artists have
influenced the sound and trajectory of popular music more distinctly, or touched quite so many
people with their talent.”
According to a sheriff’s
report, deputies responded to
an emergency call at 9:43 a.m.
Deputies found an unresponsive adult male in an elevator,
and emergency medical workers
attempted to provide lifesaving
CPR, but werunable to revive
him. Prince was pronounced deceased at 10:07 a.m.
A week prior to Prince’s
death, his plane had made an
emergency landing outside Chicago and he was rushed to a
nearby hosptal. His media rep-
ful Girl in the World;” albums like
“Dirty Mind,” “1999” and “Sign O’
the Times.” His songs became hits
for other artists such as “Nothing
Compares 2 U” for Sinead O’Connor, “Manic Monday” for the Bangles and “I Feel for You” for Chaka
Khan.
Prince’s 1984 film and album “Purple Rain,” won him an
Academy Award, and the album
sold more than 13 million copies in
the United States.
Prince was born Rogers
Nelson in Minneapolis on June 7,
1958, to John L. Nelson, a musician whose stage name was Prince
Rogers, and Mattie Della Shaw, a
jazz singer. As a young child, Prince
taught himself to play several instruments.
He formed a band in high
school with friends Morris Day and
Andre Cymone.
Prince was a teenager
when he was signed to Warner
Bros. Records, in a deal that included full creative control which later
would have Prince fighting the music giant for his freedom.
Prince
resentative, reported that Prince
was battling the flu.
Prince sold more than
100 million records, won seven
Grammys and was inducted into
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in
2004.
His career spanned from
the late 1970s until his solo “Piano & a Microphone” tour this
year. In a tribute to George Harrison that night, Prince went on
to play a guitar solo in “While My
Guitar Gently Weeps” that left the
room floored.

Gasoline prices inch up
Northeast Ohio gas
prices have increased 8 cents,
hovering around $2.09 a gallon,
according to AAA East Central’s Fuel Gauge report. The national average is $2.11.
Record-high fuel demand, declining refinery production and rising oil costs have
pushed the national average
price of gas to $2.11 per gallon.
Despite the recent increases,
pump prices are down 33 cents
per gallon compared to this
same date last year.
Prices may move higher during the second quarter of
the year in select regional markets due to intermittent supply
challenges and increased demand for gasoline. The relatively lower price for gasoline is
also reportedly prompting more
drivers to take to the roads, and
the U.S. EIA’s weekly estimates
on gasoline consumption are
approaching levels typical for
the summer months.
This increase in driving may put pressure on local
gasoline markets and cause
prices to move higher if demand
outpaces the available supply of
gasoline.
However, consumers
remain poised to benefit from
substantial comparative savings
as we enter the busy summer
driving season, and it is likely
that most drivers will pay the
cheapest summertime prices in
12 years.
As largely expected,
major oil exporters failed to
reach an agreement during the
much-anticipated meeting between OPEC and non-OPEC
countries over the weekend.
U.S. domestic production fell to a level unseen since
September 2014, and the U.S.
oil rig count is at its lowest level since November 2009. At the
close of Friday’s formal trading
session on the NYMEX, West
Texas Intermediate was down
$1.14 and settled at $40.36 per
barrel. Oil prices have dropped
even further today due to the
news out of Doha, and this
could provide some relief for gas
prices.

Former Shaker student wins Pulitzer Prize
Wesley Lowery, who is a
graduate of Shaker Heights High
School and Ohio University, has
been awarded a Pulitzer Prize for his
work on police killings of unarmed
African Americans.
Lowery was part of a team at
the Washington Post awarded a Pulitzer Prize in the national reporting
category for its database detailing fatal shootings by police officers.
The Fatal Force project originated while The Post was covering
the civil unrest in Ferguson, Missouri in 2014 and Lowery could not
find accurate information on police
shootings across the country. Lowery
was arrested covering demonstrations in Ferguson
According to Lowery,
there were protesters, activists,
civil rights groups and residents
who were saying black men
were being gunned down in the
streets every day, and the police
unions, police officials and local
officials who were insisting that
it never happened.
The Post realized there
was no official data on police
shootings or what the circumstances were. Lowery suggested
collecting the information into a
database, analyse and report on
it.
Lowery’s idea grew into
a year-long, newsroom-wide
project that was called the Fa-
A group of mostly black
women who filed a racial discrimination lawsuit against the Napa Valley
Wine Train have settled the case for
an undisclosed amount.
Waukeen McCoy, the
group’s attorney, said a confidencial
settelment was reached.
The 11 women, 10 black
and one white, had gathered on the
wine train to discuss a romance novel
as part of their book club.
When the train reached
St. Helena, The group was escorted
off the train, allegedly because they
were too noisy, into a dirt lot where
police were waiting.
Anthony “Tony” Giaccio,
CEO of the company, issued an apology a few days after the incident:
“The Napa Valley Wine Train was
100 percent wrong in its handling of
this issue. We accept full responsi-
bility for our failures and for the
chain of events that led to this regrettable treatment of our guests.”
The women were seeking $11 million in damages.
A special train, “The
Wine Soul Train,” ran in October
between Oakland and wine country with 35 passengers in response
to the Napa Valley Wine Train in-
tal Force Project. Kathryn Schulz,
a writer with the New Yorker and
a Shaker Heights native, also won
a Pulitzer Prize for her feature on
impending Northwest earthquake.
Lowery credited teacher
Natalie Sekicky for helping him
pursue journalism because he
wasn’t very good at science and
math. Journalism was a course he
could not only pass, but excel.
The FBI has announced
that starting next year they plan
to collect data in response to the
Fatal Force Project. In one in five
fatal shootings, the police officer is
never named publicly. News rooms
are grappling about what kind of
information about a police officer
should be available to the community after that officer kills someone.
During the database project, 990 police shootings were
analyse. That’s 990 people who are
dead, whose families are grieving
them, whose families are seeking
answers and seeking justice.
According to Lowery, it’s
important as a society that these
stories are shared and are part of
the public dialogue for police reform.

Judge Joseph Russo dismissed all charges against Devonta
Hill, 23, in the death of his friend,
Kenneth Smith, an unarmed African
American teenager who was fatally
shot by Cleveland Police Officer Roger Jones. Russo also terminated Hill’s
home detention.
During the four years since
Jones shot and killed Smith on March
10, 2012, Hill, spent more than two
years in jail before his million dollar
bail was reduced, and he was allowed
to go home to await trial.
Following a case in which
a federal jury found Jones liable for
Smith’s death, attorney Michael Cheselka, Hill’s attorney, filed a motion
for all charges to be dismissed. With
the motion granted, Hill’s mother
cried, and she thanked Cheselka for
treating Hill like his own son. Hill
went home to celebrate the end of a legal nightmare as a free man. However,
unbeknownst to the Hill family, before
the close of business that afternoon,
McGinty convened a grand jury, and
he re-indicted Hill.

said Budish. “These leaders
will add significant value to
ongoing operations and strategic long-term planning for
these valuable, state-of-theart facilities.”
At its meeting, the
CCCFDC board will add
four new members:
Diane Downing,
chief operating officer, RNC
2016 host committee and senior vice-president, Huntington National Bank.
Brad Sellers, Mayor, City of Warrensville
Heights.
Michael D. Siegal,

The U.S. Supreme
Court on Monday handed a
victory to those fighting to
ensure elections are fair.
The court unanimously ruled states can draw
voting districts based on
counting an area's total population, not just the number of
people of voting age.
Catherine Turcer,
policy analyst with votingrights group Common Cause
Ohio, explains the ruling
doesn't change things in
Ohio, which already does total population redistricting at
the State Legislature.
But she says it's an
important decision nonetheless.
"The
playing
around with voting rules and
redistricting rules gets in the
way of fair districts and fair
elections," says Turcer. "And
so, this decision makes it really clear that we all count,
not just 'every voter counts.'"
Turcer said total
population includes children,
immigrants and those who
are disenfranchised, so this
ruling ensures the decisions
made at the polls represent
everyone in a community.
The cities of Columbus, Cleveland, Dayton
and Toledo all joined in an
amicus brief in the case opposing changes to voting age
population districts.

The website “Deadspin” recently ranked all the different types of balls in the world,
from best to worst. The “worst”
(#43) are hair balls. The “best”
are Super Balls (the bouncy kind).
While I agree baseballs should be in the top five
(#4), it’s surprising testicles (i.e.
male balls) are lower-middle of
the pack, taking the #28 spot. The
list launched on April 1st, too;
the first day of Testicular Cancer
Awareness Month.
It’s probably safe to
assume the connection between
balls and the awareness month
never occurred to Deadspin.
That’s normal: People don’t think
about testicular cancer very often. Nobody likes thinking about
lumps on a man’s ball, unless
you’re someone with an odd way
of viewing the world.
“Most urologists have
a pretty good sense of humor,”
said Dr. Tim Davenport from Tennessee, who uses robotic surgery
to treat various cancers in men’s
nether regions.
Why don’t men pay
more attention to their balls? At
least, pay attention in ways that
could eventually save their life?
“Thinking about that
stuff, the awareness is not where
it should be because men feel
like they’re indestructible,” said
Davenport. “But to sum it all up,
there are five things people need
to keep in mind:
1. Remove the stigma
of talking about guys’ own health
issues.
2. Take the time to do a
quick and cost-free self exam.
3. Learn how to identify if something’s wrong. Basically, see if it feels like a small,
painless stone is attached to your
testicle.
4. Have the courage to
talk to your doctor immediately.
5. Keep a sense of urgency, because the sooner you
treat a problem like that, the
lower your risk of morbidity. In
other words, you end up paying a
lot less money for treatment that’s
way less intense.”
On top of conveniently
speaking in list form for readers,
Dr. Davenport knows what he’s
talking about. Most testicular
cancer cases are curable if detected early. For the many men who
succumb to the disease, however,
sometimes it’s a matter of not detecting or acting in time.
Testicular cancer is
primarily a problem young men
face between the ages of 15 and
35 years old. That’s probably the
worst time to face a potentially
deadly disease in a man’s life:
Most young men never consider
going to the doctor for anything,
let alone for something many associate with a manhood problem.
“God gave us two testicles,” said Davenport. “If we
have to remove a testicle, it typically will not affect testosterone
or your reproductive potential.
But make sure you talk to your
doctor: that’s the most important
thing.”
Even though that’s a
simple reality, the idea of checking your own balls for lumps
is still a tough sell. The key to
changing the minds of young men
is humor, according to the creator
of the “Save the Doodads” campaign, Mike Leventhal of Men’s
Health Network (MHN).
“I thought [a lot] about
[the name of the program]… and
I came up with ‘doodads.’ It’s
based off “Save the Ta-Tas,” and
it’s what I used to call them when
I was a kid. So, when turned to
several of my public health colleagues and asked their thoughts
of this potential health promotion
campaign, they all encouraged
me to do it.”
And it’s working.
“Save the Doodads” is a national
program, but is the only testicular cancer outreach/awareness
initiative within Tennessee encouraging this important health
dialogue. Leventhal recalled a
moment when the mother of a 17
year old battling testicular cancer reached out to thank him and
MHN for creating such an important initiative:
“Her voice was trembling with tears when I answered
the phone. She explained that her
son underwent the last of his radiation treatments the day prior
to her contacting me and his doctors believe he will be able to
begin college in the Fall,” said
Leventhal. “But most importantly, he will live cancer free. Her
gratitude for Save the Doodads
extended far beyond herself, her
son, and their extended family.
She was thankful for MHN’s ef-
forts to inform communities about
the risks of testicular cancer and
the importance of early detection.”
Leventhal partners with
universities and their colleges of
public health across the country to
highlight the problem during special events on campus. Soon, he
hopes to collaborate with middle
and high schools to stress being
proactive regarding their health.
“Let’s be honest: A big
part of the outreach is to raise
financial resources,” said Leventhal. “But that money goes
straight into programs dedicated
to education and reaching more
guys. The best feeling we get is
when we have fun implementing
projects that truly help people.”
So here’s the deal: If
you’re a man, and you’re reading
this, then take a minute to check
out resources like www.TesticularCancerAwarenessMonth.com
and/or
www.savethedoodads.
org. Find out how to do the self
exam, watch some catchy videos,
download brochures, and don’t
be afraid to talk to your doctor if
something’s strange.
Because no matter what
you find, the exam usually includes a happy ending – you either
find nothing (the best result), or
maybe an early stage cancer that
can almost always be cured.

Feed, by Eric Coble, April 23 at 2:30 p.m.
Based on the novel by
M.T. Anderson.
Titus is a typical
American teenager in the
not-distant-enough future.
He attends SchoolTM,
parties with his friends on
weekend trips to the moon
and, like everyone else,
gets all he needs from the
Feed - an implant streaming the internet directly
into his brain. Titus has
never questioned being
told what to think, feel,
and buy until he falls for
Violet, an awkward rebel
who challenges him to resist the Feed.
Commissioned

Islam In The Community
American documentaries deal with Muslim stereotypes
Editor’s Note: Mariam Elba
is a native New Yorker with
roots in Egypt. She writes
on issues related to social
justice, urban communities
and underrepresented communities in the U.S. and the
Middle East.
By MARIAM ELBA
For the month of
February, America ReFramed
curated a trio of documentaries on different aspects of
the American Muslim experi-
ence. They follow American
Muslims of various ethnic
backgrounds from across the
country as they wrestle with
identity, claims to faith, and
racial and religious profiling. Despite stark differences
in how these characters see
themselves and their place in
American society, the films
cover aspects of the American
Muslim experience that are
urgent and relevant across the
spectrum.
America ReFramed’s
American Muslim-themed
documentaries showcase the
multifaceted challenges and
frustrations that many American Muslims tackle on a dayto-day basis: such as constantly dealing with stereotypical
images of Muslims in the
media, systemic profiling by
state and federal law enforcement, and challenging other
Muslims on how Islam should
be preached and taught.
In American Arab
(2013), Usama Alshaibi is
both protagonist and filmmaker. He walks us through
A Look At My World
Who’s smarter than a fifth grader
By DR. JAMES L. SNYDER
Sometimes an idea
will take possession of my
mind and literally run with
it. Most of the time when an
idea sees the condition of my
mind it slowly walks away
shaking its head. Someone
said a mind is a terrible thing
to waste, but I’m sure they
had no knowledge of my
mind.
Then there is that
odd moment when an idea
completely disregards the
condition of my mind and
takes over. Such has been the
case lately.
The idea that has
taken up residence in my
mind lately has to do with
the condition of the leadership in our country. I have
reached that glad time of life
when I have the perspective
of looking back over several
decades.
The consequence of
looking back is that I have
concluded certain things are
not as good as they used to
be. I know I’m not as good
as I used to be, in fact the
Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage suggests that I never
was. Of course, I bow to her
perspective, which goes back
further than mine.
The focus of this
decline centers on political
leaders. Never in the history
of our country have so few
done so much to confuse so
many.
I will not say that
the average politician is
dumber than dirt out of my
deep respect for dirt. At the
end of my life, my body will
be committed to the dirt and
at that time, I do not want the
dirt to have an ax to grind
with me and take it out on my
body.
The evidence, however, suggested the whole po-
litical group shares one living
brain cell. The problem with
this is we never know which
politician has the live brain
cell at any given time. The
wattage of this brain cell is so
low it is barely noticeable. If
it were not for polls, the average politician would have
nothing to say; but be sure,
he or she would say it with a
great deal of eloquence.
It was at this point
that an idea entered the dark
corridors of my dormant
mind.
One evening recently, my wife and I had finished
the day’s labor and nestled in
our living room to relax by
watching a few moments of
television. It was our fortune
to see a brand-new program,
“Are You Smarter Than a
Fifth-Grader?” To say that
we were delighted with this
new show is like stating peanut butter goes quite nicely
with grape jelly.
The object of the
game was to give questions
to adults from grades one
through five. Helping the
adult would be a team of fifthgraders. All the questions
would be from the aforementioned grades of which the
average adult should know
the answers. (Duh.)
After watching this
several times both my wife
and I noted that no adult was
able to answer all the questions. To this day, they have
not found any adult smarter
than a fifth-grader.
This is where my
idea began dancing the tango
up and down the corridors
of my mind. Why don’t we
take this idea to Washington,
D.C.? Let us see if there is a
politician smarter than a fifth
grader.
Not to tip my hat,
but I think I know the answer
to this one, and I don’t need
any help lines.

What would happen is this; we would gather
the top fifth-graders from
all across our country. This
would prove once and for all
the validity of the “no child
left behind” program.
These
children
would come to Washington,
D.C. for a questioning program, fully funded by generous donations from every
politician on Capitol Hill.
Those who do not give a generous donation to this program would immediately be
dismissed and sent home to
live out the rest of their days
in obscurity and never allowed to hold a public office
again.
One by one, each
politician would stand before
these fifth-graders and answer questions. Children all
across our country in grades
one through five would submit questions.
This would have
the dual effect of introducing children to the world of
politics as well as introducing politicians, probably for
the very first time, to the real
citizens of our country.
If any political leader fails to answer any question or answers it incorrectly,
he must look into the camera
and say, “I’m not smarter than
a fifth- grader.” But that’s not
the end of it. Here begins the
genius of my idea.
When a politician
finishes this portion of the
program, he or she then must
resign his political office and
give it to the fifth-grader who
answered the question correctly.
After all, if the fifthgrader knows more than the
politician, who should be
making decisions for our
country?
If any politician
makes it all the way through,
there is one final question I
know will stump him or her.
I have yet to hear of any politician who knows the answer
to this question.
The final question
will be, “What is the official
language of the United States
of America?”
I take comfort in
what the Bible says. “Trust
in the Lord with all thine
heart; and lean not unto thine
own understanding. In all thy
ways acknowledge him, and
he shall direct thy paths.”
(Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV).
As long as we have
leaders who look to themselves for wisdom, our country will never go in the right
direction.

his experiences growing up
between the United States
and various countries in the
Middle East (including Saudi
Arabia and Iraq, where his
father hails from), and finally
settling back in the United
States. He shares his own
coming-of-age difficulties
as an Arab-American in a
post-9/11 world, as well as
those of several other ArabAmericans.
To explore this diversity, Alshaibi profiles a
range of personalities in his
film, each of whom carve out
spaces for Arab and American
Muslims in their own right.
Alshaibi talks to Amal Abusumayah, a Muslim woman
whose hijab was pulled by
another woman while grocery
shopping in 2009.
Her case received
widespread media attention
and her harasser was later convicted of a hate crime. Here
we witness a Muslim woman
exercise agency to assert her
belonging.
Another person we
meet in the film is Marwan
Kamel, a Syrian-American
who founded a band called
Al Thawra. Through his punkrock performances and writing, he expresses his complicated identity and challenges
mainstream Arab and Muslim
“Americanness.”
A lot of what Alshaibi said in the film resonated
with me as an Arab-American.
He spoke about watching
movies as a child that grossly misrepresented Arabs as
mindless and sex-starved, and
seeing violent Arabs come at
Michael J. Fox’s character in
the film Back to the Future.
Many times, I was
fed the same narratives as
a student. In my Advanced
Placement World History
class, we were shown the film
Not Without My Daughter,
which was full of bigoted
depictions of Muslims and
Iranians in post-revolution
Iran.
It was cringe-worthy
to sit through and to this day,
the movie continues to remind me of how others may
perceive me as an American
Muslim: a threat.
At the same time,
there was a lot I couldn’t relate to in Alshaibi’s film, and
that’s exactly the point. In a
recent interview with Radio
Islam, Alshaibi said each
Arab-American experience is
unique; there is no “one way”
to be an Arab-American. The
stories he explores through his
work are proof of this.
Brittany Huckabee’s
film, The Mosque In Morgantown (2009), is a microcosmic
look at the growing pains of a
mosque in Morgantown, West
Virginia. A small group of
conservative men monopolize
the leadership of the mosque,
and feminist and activist Asra
Nomani and others seek to
make the mosque more accessible to women and families.
They challenge the leadership
by taking a critical look at
the way faith is preached and
taught there.
Since this documentary was filmed, from 2003
to 2005, Nomani has increasingly alienated herself from
other American Muslim activists — from her statements
supporting the surveillance of
American Muslim communities and her defense of some
of the Islamophobic rhetoric
in this presidential election.
That aside, her fight
to make mosques more inclusive of women, to foster an
environment that espouses
gender equality, and offer a
space open to differing theological interpretations and
schools of thought, is something recurring in many ways
in mosques, Muslim student
groups and Muslim grassroots
organizations throughout the
country.
We see this in the
Side Entrance blog on Tumblr, in which Muslim women
document the accessibility of
mosques to women worldwide.
Initiatives such as the
Women’s Mosque of America,
which began a little over a
year ago, is the first gathering space in the United States
exclusively for women, has
women preachers, and accommodates Muslim women of all
sects and schools of thought.
This desire to claim
one’s own narrative of Islam
and way of practicing it is
reflected in The Mosque In
Morgantown; it highlights
one aspect of the gender struggle in Muslim communities
throughout the country.
Third is Adama
(2011), a very different film
from the previous two. David
Felix Sutcliffe’s work covers
arguably what is the most
pressing contemporary issue
among American Muslims,
Arabs, Sikhs, South Asians, or
any other group perceived to
be “Muslim-looking.” We follow Adama Bah, a 16-year-old
girl who came from Guinea,
West Africa, when she was 2.
Adama is the youngest known
American Muslim detained in
a domestic terrorism investigation.
In 2005, Adama,
living with her family in East
Harlem, was arrested by the
FBI and accused of being a
“potential” suicide bomber.
She was held without evidence for nearly two months
in a maximum-security detention center before public pressure prompted the government
to release her. No terrorist
charges were ever filed.
For the next three
years, Adama was ordered to
wear an ankle bracelet and live
under partial house arrest as
she underwent an excruciating
immigration battle to remain
in the country. Shortly after
her release, her father was
deported to Guinea because of
his undocumented status. As
the eldest child, she dropped
out of high school to support
her four younger siblings.
Surveillance by law
enforcement in Muslim communities across the country
remains one of the most significant issues facing American Muslims today. In 2011,
the Associated Press broke
the story that the New York
Police Department planted informants in mosques, Muslim
campus groups and Muslimowned businesses throughout
New York City.

While the unit responsible for surveillance
has since been disbanded,
there are repeated claims that
the monitoring continues,
especially after two women
from Queens were arrested
last spring on similar charges
to Adama. The charges were
based on information conveyed by an FBI informant
who previously frequented the
Muslim Student Association
of Brooklyn College.
The film exposes
how essential it is that we
see what life is like for those
trapped under unfounded terrorist accusations. There are
many like Adama who have
endured similar charges, or
experienced profiling because
of their Islamic faith or Muslim appearance.
Together, these three
films show not only the diversity of the American Muslim
community, but also its issues.
The films make us reconsider
terms like “American Muslim
community” or “American
Islam,” which should perhaps
be thought of in the plural
sense.
There are many different Muslim communities
with their own set of concerns,
ways of asserting their belonging, “Americanness” and humanity. The American Muslim
community is as diverse as the
global Muslim population,
and these stories bring this
important fact to light.

Legal Court Interpretation
Discovery and privilege explained
By JUSTICE PAUL E. PFEIFER
If you live around
Cuyahoga County, you may be
familiar with the “Sweepstakes
Club,” a couple of Internet
sweepstakes cafés owned by
J&C Marketing, L.L.C. The
cafés purported to sell Internet
access at the rate of $1 per four
minutes, and to give free electronic promotional sweepstakes
entries to customers based on
the number of minutes they purchased.
No purchase was necessary to enter the sweepstakes
and, upon request, the cafés
would provide free entry in the
sweepstakes. Customers could
then use a café’s computer terminals to play games to reveal
the results of their sweepstakes
entries. Wining entries could
be redeemed for cash or more
Internet-access time.
At some point, law-enforcement officials in Cuyahoga
County began investigating
whether Internet sweepstakes
cafés – there are others besides
J&C’s – actually promoted illegal gambling. Undercover officers visited cafés throughout
the county and filed reports that
contained the identities of the
officers and potential sources of
information, the date and time
surveillance occurred, and investigative techniques.
Based on these investigations, in May 2012 a grand
jury returned an indictment
against ten individuals and seven companies, alleging that they
had used an Internet gambling
system known as “VS2” to conceal illegal gambling by presenting it as an Internet sweepstakes.
That same day, the
Cuyahoga County prosecuting
attorney – Timothy J. McGinty –
mailed letters to J&C and other
Internet sweepstakes cafés that
had not used the VS2 software
and threatened criminal prosecution if they did not immediately
stop running the sweepstakes.
To avoid possible indictment,
J&C and other café owners
closed their businesses.
In June 2012, after
closing both of its cafés, J&C
filed an action in court for a temporary restraining order, and to
prohibit McGinty from enforcing gambling laws against it with
respect to Internet sweepstakes.
J&C insisted that since payment
to play its Internet sweepstakes
games wasn’t required, its business did not promote gambling
as defined in a 1954 United
States Supreme Court ruling
which held that gambling is
the union of chance, prize, and
consideration. J&C said that because it did not require customers to pay to enter the sweepstakes, it hadn’t violated the law.
The trial court granted
a temporary restraining order
and made preliminary findings
that the cafés were not the subject of a pending criminal case
and did not promote illegal
gambling. J&C then sought to
compel discovery of records and
information related to the ongoing criminal investigation.
J&C requested evidence that – McGinty claimed
– showed that the company
had received consideration
from sweepstakes customers.
McGinty objected to these requests, asserting the attorneywork-product privilege, deliberative-process privilege, and
law-enforcement investigatory
privilege.
The trial court ultimately ordered McGinty to produce investigative reports and email exchanges with undercover
officers, and answers to questions requiring the disclosure of
confidential information about
ongoing criminal investigations.
McGinty filed an appeal. The court of appeals reviewed the requested material
and balanced the competing interests of J&C and McGinty.
The court of appeals recognized
the existence of the law-enforcement investigatory privilege but
held that reports prepared during
the undercover investigations
were discoverable because they
“are directly relevant to the alleged conduct of the Internet
sweepstakes cafés…”
The court of appeals
directed the trial court to redact
the names of the undercover officers. Nonetheless, it ordered
McGinty to answer questions
regarding witnesses and evidence intended to be presented
at trial despite recognizing that
this ruling could result in revealing the identity of undercover
officers. But the court of appeals held that e-mails between
McGinty’s office and criminal
investigators were protected by
the law-enforcement investigatory privilege and the attorneywork-product privilege.
After that decision,
McGinty brought an appeal
before us – the Ohio Supreme
Court. He argued that the court
of appeals erred in balancing the
competing interests involved because an absolute privilege protected the information at issue.
But is the information protected
by an absolute privilege?
The pertinent law
states that unless otherwise ordered by the court, the scope
of discovery is that parties may
obtain discovery regarding any
matter, not privileged, which is
relevant to the subject involved
in the pending action.
Over the years, courts
have recognized a qualified
privilege for law-enforcement
investigatory information, including confidential sources,
surveillance information, and
law-enforcement techniques and
procedures.
However, the privilege is not absolute: it’s limited
by the “fundamental requirements of fairness,” so that when
the privileged information “is
relevant and helpful to the defense of an accused, or is essential to a fair determination of a
cause, the privilege must give
way.” Parties seeking the information may obtain law-enforce-
ment investigatory material
only upon showing a “compelling need.”
Therefore,
courts
have applied a balancing test to
determine whether the privilege
applies. In a case from 1988
called Henneman v. Toledo, our
court adopted a test to weigh the
legitimate public interest in the
confidentiality of the information obtained in a police department’s internal-affairs investigation against the needs of a
person involved in the litigation
to obtain evidence in support of
a non-frivolous cause of action.
In J&C’s case, the
interests of both parties were
significant. McGinty must safeguard the integrity of the investigation, protect the safety of
informants and others involved,
and guard against nuisance lawsuits that are brought merely to
gain access to investigative information.
But J&C’s interests
in obtaining discovery were
also strong, because by issuing
the cease-and-desist letter, McGinty effectively shut down the
business, even though J&C had
never even been charged with
violating the law. The court of
appeals appropriately balanced
these interests.
In conducting its
review, the court of appeals
acknowledged the “sweeping
implications” of J&C’s case.
Because information related to
a law-enforcement investigation is not entitled to absolute
privilege, the court of appeals
did not err in determining that a
balancing test was required.
By a six-to-one vote,
we affirmed the court of appeals’ judgment. We concluded that the law-enforcement
privilege is not absolute, and
we reaffirmed the validity of
the balancing test we adopted
in Henneman for weighing the
interests of law enforcement
against the needs of a civil litigant who request information in
discovery.

Should you leave 401(k) money behind?
By NATHANIEL SILLIN
With the average
American spending only 4.6
years at any given job, it’s
never been more important
to have a plan for any retirement funds you’ve accrued
at any employer.
A big problem that
began during the 2008 recession but continues today
involves loans, hardship
withdrawals and complete
cash-outs of 401(k) plans. A
2015 Boston College study
(http://crr.bc.edu) reported
that 1.5 percent of retirement assets “leak out” of
401(k) plans and personal
IRAs each year, reducing an
individual’s wealth at retirement by about 25 percent.
Meanwhile, a 2014
Fidelity Investments study
sounded a particularly urgent alarm about 401(k)
cash-outs and workers under
the age of 40. The mutual
fund giant noted that 35 percent of all participants were
simply cashing out their
401(k) assets when leaving
a job. However, for workers
aged 20-39 – indeed, those
with the longest savings horizons – that number jumped
to 41 percent.
So what should you
do? A great deal depends on
your age, time to retirement
and specific needs.
Start by taking an
inventory of your retirement
assets. Either alone or with
the help of a qualified financial or tax expert, put together an official list of current
and former 401(k) plans,
personal IRAs or, depending on your years of work
history, assets from traditional defined benefit retirement plans that were popular more than 20 years ago.
Then see where you are.
Make sure you always review retirement options whenever you change
a job. If an employer is highly motivated to get you on
board, query the company
about the retirement savings
options that would fit the position you’re interviewing
for.
Ask hiring managers in general terms about
how well their retirement
options have performed and
if you would have the option
of rolling over your 401(k)
assets to that employer.
If, for example,
your prospective employer
has a more generous matching feature than your current
employer has, that could
create a favorable environment for transferring those

assets.
If not, you may
want to keep your money
in your employer’s existing
plan or consider a rollover
to a personal IRA with the
features you’re looking for.
Ask plenty of questions.
Evaluate
IRA
choices carefully. If you are
considering rolling your former employer’s assets into a
personal IRA, evaluate your
tax situation, both Traditional and Roth IRA options
and their performance and
fee levels before you arrange for a transfer.
Go for the best-performing investment options
that fit your needs and anticipated retirement date. Employer-based 401(k) plans
generally disclose investment choices and investment
fees (http://www.dol.gov/
ebsa/publications/401k_employee.html). It may be a
good idea to get qualified
help to review those documents. Age is important.
There’s typically
a 10 percent penalty if you
withdraw money from a
401(k) or IRA before age 59
½. But if you lose or leave
your job at age 55 or later
(or earlier for certain public
employees), you can generally take 401(k) withdrawals without penalty.
An IRA rollover
requires the account holder
to be at least 59 ½ years
old before they can take a
penalty-free IRA distribution. While keeping your
money invested as long as
possible is key to a successful retirement, withdrawal
issues are also important to
consider based on your age
and time to retirement.
Invest on your
own. It’s important to do
parallel personal retirement
planning with any employer-based retirement options
available to you. Again, get
qualified help to assist you
in evaluating the retirement
savings and investment decisions you make on your
own and at work.
Bottom line: Frequent job changing can
derail anyone’s retirement
planning. Whether you roll
over a former employer’s
retirement assets every time
you switch or decide to
keep your money in certain
plans, get help if you need
it.

Social Security: commonly asked questions
Q: I’ve only been
working for a few years, and
I’m wondering how I earn Social Security benefits. What
are credits and how many do
I need to qualify for benefits?
A: The Social Security Administration uses your
total yearly earnings to calculate your Social Security
credits. “Credits” are the units
used to measure whether you
qualify for Social Security
benefits. The amount needed
for a credit in 2015 is $1,220.
You can earn a maximum of
four credits for any year. The
amount needed to earn one
credit increases automatically
each year when average wages increase.
You must earn a
certain number of credits to
qualify for Social Security
benefits. The number of credits you need depends on your
age when you apply and the
type of benefit for which you
are applying. No one needs
more than 40 credits for any
Social Security benefit. You
can learn more about earning
credits by reading How You
Earn Credits at www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs.
Q: My same-sex
partner and I recently married.
Will we qualify for Social Security benefits?
A: You may be eligible to apply for Social Security benefits. Many factors
affect your eligibility for benefits, including how long you
worked and your age.Social
Security is now processing
more claims in which entitlement or eligibility is affected
by a same-sex relationship. It
is wise to apply for benefits
right away, even if you aren’t
sure you’re eligible. Applying
now will protect you against
the loss of any potential benefits. You can apply safely and
securely at www.socialsecurity.gov/applyonline.Learn
more about Social Security
for same-sex couples by
visiting www.socialsecurity.
gov/same-sexcouples.
Q: I’m planning my
retirement. What is the maximum Social Security benefit
I might receive?
A: The maximum
benefit depends on the age
you retire and how much you
earned in your lifetime. For
example, if you retire at age
62 in 2015, your maximum
benefit will be $2,025. If you
retire at full retirement age in
2015, your maximum benefit
will be $2,663. If you retire
at age 70 in 2015, your maximum benefit will be $3,501.
You can estimate your benefits by using the Retirement
Estimator at www.socialsecurity.gov/estimator.
Q: I will turn 65 in a
few months. Because of my
financial situation, I thought
I’d be eligible for Supplemental Security Income
(SSI). But my neighbor told
me I’d probably be turned
down because a friend has
offered to support me. Is this
true?
A: If you have low
income and few resources,
you may qualify for SSI.
However, if your friend helps
to support you, it could affect
whether or not you will get
SSI or the amount you would
receive. Any amount of support you receive from your
friend or anyone else will
be considered as “income”
when the Social Security Administration makes a decision about your SSI eligibility and the amount you may
qualify to receive.
“Support” includes
food, shelter, utility bills or
cash you receive from someone else. For more information, visit www.socialsecurity/gov/disabilityssi/ssi.html.
Generally, any cash you receive is considered income
in the month you receive it,
and is counted as a resource
if you still have it the following month. There are some
exceptions to this rule. If, for
example, you receive an “infrequent gift” of cash (for a
birthday, for example), you
do not need to consider it as
income or a resource.
Q: I’m retired, and
the only income I have aside
from my Social Security retirement benefit is from an Individual Retirement Account
(IRA). Are my IRA withdrawals considered “earnings?” Could they reduce my
monthly Social Security benefits?
A: No. The Social
Security Administration does
not count non-work income
(such as annuities, investment income, interest, capital
gains and other government
benefits), and this non-work
income will not affect your
Social Security benefits.
Also, most pensions will not
affect your benefits, unless
you have a government pension from work on which you
did not pay Social Security
tax. If you have wages or selfemployment income and you
are under your full retirement
age, this income also may affect your benefit amount.

An excerpt from “Follow” reads:
“Life is just like a theatre. You enter the stage when
you are born, play your role, and
then you exit on the other side.
All the things in-between are just
props.”

Gladiators felled by Kiss; 47-42
By ANDREW CARTER
The Cleveland Gladiators fell to 1-2 in this young Arena
Football League season as they were felled by the L.A. Kiss, 47-42.
Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley of the Rock Band Kiss own the La-La
Land entry in the AFL, hence the name. The game started badly the
Gladiators as they were driving but NE Ohio native Rayshaun Kizer
(Euclid H.S. and Walsh University ) intercepted Cleveland QB Dennis
Havrilla’s pass at the one and returned it the length of the field for the
only score of the 1st quarter. Cleveland scored 21 points in the 2nd
quarter and went into Halftime, down 26-21. The teams then played
an even 2nd half as each squad scored a TD in the 3rd quarter and two
TDs in the 4th quarter, so that LA’s five point advantage held up for the
47-42 win. Havrilla finished with 236 passing yards and five TDs, along
with two INTs. He also ran for a TD.

Cavs take commanding 2-0 lead over Pistons
By KARL BRYANT
The Cavaliers have
taken a commanding 2-0 lead
over the Pistons in their 1st
round matchup in the NBA
playoffs. In Game 1, the Pistons gave it their all – shooting better from the perimeter
than they had all year (15 of
29) - and still came up short
in a see-saw affair, losing
106-101. In Game 2, Cleveland sharpshooters tied an
NBA playoff record by hitting 20 shots from downtown
in a 107-90 beatdown.
The Cavs had a
trio of 20-point scorers in
each game. In Game 1, Kyrie Irving’s 31 points, Kevin
Love’s 28 points, and LeBron James’ 22 led the Cavs.
In Game 2, LeBron’s 27, Irving’s 21, and J.R. Smith’s
21 – all on incredible 7 of 11
perimeter shooting – paced
the squad.
In Game 1, Cavs
Coach Tyronn Lue decided
to fight Detroit’s three-point
shooting and rebounding by
inserting Love in the center
position. Love responded
with that 28 point effort,
while snaring 13 rebounds.
The idea worked so well that
Lue tried it again in Game 2.
Despite so-so accuracy, Love
still came up with 16 points
and 10 rebounds.
With the adjustment,
Cavs normal C Timofey
Mozgov, has yet to score a
point in the series. In the first
game, in five minutes of play,
he registered a block just so
that there was sign of a pulse.
In the second game, in nine
minutes of court time, he had
an assist.
A surprising odd
man out has been Tristan
Thompson, who’s scored but
two points, total. In the first
game, in 30 minutes of play,
he had the one basket, six
rebounds, and a couple of assists. In the second game, he
did not take a shot in his 13
½ minutes on the court, and
managed to sneak in to snag
one rebound along with an
assist.
The reason for this
change of tactics was Detroit
Big Man Andre Drummond,
the NBA’s leading rebounder.
While having to chase Love
around the court, he was being kept farther from the basket. In the first game, he had
13 points and 11 rebounds.
He went one of two from the
foul line. In the second game,
he had 20 points and seven
boards. He started getting
increased touches, hence the
Cavs decided to take turns
hacking him, so as not to give
too many fouls to any one
player.
Drummond was a
disaster at the Charity Stripe,
making only 4 of 16. In fact,
the only reason the Cavs
stopped purposely fouling
Drummond in the 2nd half
was because they’d built up a
sizable lead.
Kentavious
Caldwell-Pope’s 21 points
and Marcus Morris’ 20 points
led Detroit in Game 1. The
Pistons shot great - 50.7%
from the field and 51.7%
from beyond the arc. They
also outrebounded the Cavs,
yet lost by five in a tight
contest. There were 17 lead
changes and the game was
tied 21 times.
Drummond’s
20
points led the Pistons in
Game 2. They shot over 51%
in the 1st half, but cooled
off considerably, shooting
just 35% in the 2nd half, as
the Cavs pulled away. Of the
Cavs 80 shots, 38 were three
attempts, with the league
playoff record-tying 20 going in. The Cavs made 50%
of their shots overall. One
odd stat, they were also 50%
from the foul line (7 of 14),
while Detroit, despite Drummond’s aforementioned 4 of
16, still made 56% of their
free throws.
Pistons
Rookie
Stanley Johnson, who scored
nine points in each game and
has been bumped around by
James, afterward was complaining about the Cavs’ trash
talk, actually giving them a
backhand compliment about
team unity as he remarked,
“They’re like little cheerleaders on the bench…They’re
always saying something
like they’re playing basketball – like they’re actually in
the game. There’s only 7 or 8
players who play. I don’t see
why the others are talking.
They may as well just be in
the stands.”
Despite the Game 2
margin of victory, Jamesstill
played nearly 40 minutes.
After the game, James said,
“I’m prepared to play 48 minutes every game.” He also
shrugged off Detroit comments, saying, “I will make
sure that our guys understand
that we’re here to play basketball. Everything else is irrelevant.”
Pistons Coach Stan
Van Gundy, who was fined
$25,000 for complaining
about the officiating during
an in-game TV interview
in the 1st half of Game 1
(“LeBron gets to do what he
wants.), has blamed himself
after both losses, although
he’s had his team playing
above their talent level. He
basically said the same thing
following each game, stating, “I should have put us in
a better position (with coaching decisions). This one’s on
me.”
matter what, even though the
field is slippery and a multimillion dollar athlete could fall
and turn an ankle.) Against the
odds, the Indians came back.
Rajai Davis hit a HR.
Chisenhall got his first hit and
RBI since returning from the
DL just the day before. Then
pinch hitter Mike Napoli came
on and did exactly what he was
acquired for – provide some
power – and tied the game 7-7
by clobbering a 2-Run HR.
Unfortunately in the 10 Inning,
Robinson Cano hit a 3-Run HR
to provide the Mariners with a
10-7 win.
During a 7-5 Tribe
win on Saturday before 20,165
– the biggest crowd of the
homestand – there was a large
number of NY fans. (We’re
used to seeing large numbers of
Yankees fans when the Bronx
Bombers come to town.) In
fact, over that weekend, NY
Mets fans helped the crowds
go over 50,000 for the threegame series. Torri from White
Plains, who was with two other
NY fans, said, “I go to a couple
of Away games each year. With
us making the World Series,
there’s even more following
the team this year.”
Phil from Queens,
who was in a group of four
head-to-toe dressed Mets fans,
told Minority Publishers Assn.,
“This is about as cheap as seeing the Mets play at home. I
would’ve paid over $100 for a
ticket there. It cost me $49 to
fly each way; this ticket was
about 20 bucks. Then, I get to
go tomorrow. There are actually some interesting concessions choices. The only thing
was the hotel, but it wasn’t that
much. Plus, I got to get away
from home. It was worth it.”
Maybe that’s what
the Tribe should do. Since for
some reason it’s hard to get
Tribe fans to come to Progressive Field, the Indians should
market ticket packages to their
opponent’s traveling fans.
They’d get bodies into empty
seats, could play cheers on the
P.A. to make Tribe players feel
some love, and they’d make a
few extra bucks in the process.

Monsters make playoffs with win
By ANDREW CARTER
The 2015-16 Lake Erie Monsters made the American Hockey
League Calder Cup Playoffs for the first time in five years. They were
already assured of a No. 2 seed when they took on the Charlotte Checkers in the Fan Appreciation Day season finale. With Charlotte needing a
win to keep their playoff hopes alive, the Monsters came through with
a solid 5-2 victory to eliminate them and finish the regular season at 4322-6-5 (W-L-OTL-Shootout L). It was their 25th victory at home. The
Checkers skated out to a 2-0 lead before the Monsters got untracked and
responded with five unanswered goals (three in the final period) to notch
the win. The Monsters now will play any other necessary game of this
best-of-five series at Home as Game 3 will be at Quicken Loans Arena
this Saturday, April 23.

Inconsistent leaves Tribe below .500
By KARL BRYANT
Thanks to the Twins
starting the season 0-9, the
Tribe is staying clear of the
A.L. Central basement. However, after going 2-4 on their
last homestand while Minnesota has won five of their last
seven games, the Tribe is narrowing the gap. Fortunately,
Lonnie Chisenhall was just
activated from the Disabled
List and there is hope that soon
Michael Brantley, rehabbing at
AA Akron, might get enough
at bats to join the parent club.
Brantley is currently hitting
.333 for the Rubber Ducks.
After Carlos Carrasco pitched the Tribe to a 3-2
victory over the Mariners and
a fine outing by Danny Salazar
was wasted in a 2-1 loss, the
Tribe looked like they were
having their usual offensive
struggles. Carrasco improved
to 2-0, with a 2.79 ERA. Salazar, who allowed only three
hits, saw his record drop to 2-1,
despite a sparkling 1.47 ERA.
Both those pitcher’s

there are risks when you are

if you are drafting a quarterback

moving back that we may have

Boxing Nostalgia

Canada’s Robert Cleroux had a respectable record
No doubt the most
well known heavyweight to
come out of Canada is George
Chuvalo. For a while Lennox
Lewis called it his home and
Trevor Berbick made his mark
but George is still #1 in Canada.
Nevertheless there is
a very overlooked heavyweight
contender from the 1960’s who
at one time was closing in on a
world title shot.
His name was Robert
Cleroux. The fact is that “Big
Bob” had a trilogy of bouts
with Chuvalo for the Canadian heavyweight title. Cleroux
won two of those contests.
Cleroux was born on
February 23,1938. He joined
the punch for pay ranks in 1957
after winning the Montreal
Golden Gloves title in 1956.
At 6’1’’ and weighing over
200 pounds,he was a fairly big
heavyweight in his era.
He won 12of his first
13 contests. Only a draw with
Eddie Vick stained his record.
He beat Vick in a return match.
Cleroux
Vick would go on to fight the
likes of Tommy “Hurricane”
Jackson.Chuck
Wepner,Jeff
Merritt and Bob Foster twice
during his career. Cleroux invaded New York’s Madison
Square Garden in 1959 and
suffered his first loss. An eight
round decision to veteran Buddy Turman.
Cleroux would regroup to win nine fights in a
row including a decision over
Willie Besmanoff and a five
round kayo against Roy “CutN-Shoot” Harris.
In 1960 he won a
close and hard fought split
decision over Chuvalo to capture the Canadian crown. Later
in the year he would drop a
12round verdict to Chuvalo
losing the title. In between
those two battles, Cleroux
halted Turman in two rounds to
gain a measure of revenge.
For Cleroux, 1961
was a good year, as he stopped
Harold Carter,Harris again and
the hard hitting Alex Miteff.
He then won another split decision over Chuvalo to recapture the Canadian heavyweight
championship.
He defended that
title by knockout over Cecil
Gray and then stopped rugged
George Logan in seven rounds.
Then Cleroux hit a rough patch
dropping ten rounders to the
highly rated Zora Folley and
tough Mike DeJohn.
He then won a close
points call against Tom McNeely. Cleroux followed that
with four straight knockout
victories and was again paired
with the clever Folley where he
clearly outboxed Cleroux and
Cleroux stepped away from the
ring until 1968 when he won
five straight bouts.
He then outduked the
still dangerous Cleveland Williams to re-establish himself as
a contender for world honors.
In 1969 he whipped Charlie
Chase twice and Bob Felstein.
It was now rumored
that Cleroux was going to challenge Jimmy Elis for the WBA
version of the heavyweight title. In July he met Billy Joiner
in a tune up bout. Joiner,a Ohio
standout amateur boxer and capable professional fighter upset
the apple cart by winning a ten
round split decision.
With this defeat Cleroux’s hopes for a title shot
were dashed and he retired for
good.
In 55 fights Cleroux
posted a very respectable 48-61 record. He won 38 by knockout and he was never stopped.

Amos 'Junior' Wells
The roots found in
the blues and vocalist - harmonica player Amos 'Junior'
Wells, born in 1932 and raised
in Memphis has made his contribution through recordings
and live shows.
In the 1950s Wells
made some sides for small,
independent labels --- States,
Profile, Chief and USA. But
he composed very few original
blues. Instead, he borrowed
from Rice Miller (Sonny Boy
Williamson II) whom he met
when he was eight years old.
Although laws prohibited minors in Chicago taverns, as a teenager, Wells was
playing in the bands of Tampa
Red, Little Johnny Jones and
Memphis Slim before he created his own band, The Aces.
Discovered in 1966
by blues enthusiast Bob Koester, who had just launched
Delmard Records.
Wells' recorded an
LP, "Hoodoo Man Blues",
which led Wells to the concert,
college and festival circuit. He
toured Europe several times,
once with the Rolling Stones.
After 1965, Wells' career went in many directions.
He became associated with
Buddy Guy, and remained a
regular in Chicago clubs. He
tried Brown around 1966.
Recently, Wells recorded two albums ( Better
Off With the Blues [1993]
and Everybody's Gettin' Some
[March 1995] ) for the Telarc
International, Cleveland based label.

Da 'Round Da Way Rewind Review
Guess Who's Coming To Dinner?
By C.M. APPLING
Before the Civil
Rights Movement of the
1950’s and ‘60’s, the history of
American movie cinema followed the dictate of Jim Crow
society. ‘Separate but equal’
was the rule that said whites
and blacks could not use the
same restrooms, water fountains and restaurants. Whites
rode in the front of the buses
and blacks rode in the rear.
And, in the film world, in the
few times when black characters were included in white
motion-pictures, the interracial
scenes were usually edited out
of the movies when they were
shown in Southern states or the
films were banned from Southern theatres altogether.
With this precedent
governing the state of racial
affairs in the country, the very
idea of interracial love on the
big screen was considered the
ultimate taboo and the most
dangerous. Before the ‘60’s,
black men were still being
lynched at an alarming rate.
Historically-speaking, white
male/black female race-mixing wasn’t accepted either.
But, since most of the previous
miscegenation had been between former white slave masters and their black mistresses,
this did not disturb the ruling,
white power structure, even
though this type of mixing onscreen was
considered controversial as
well. So, if the film industry
was going to break the racial
boundary of presenting a black
male/white female romance
on screen, how would they
accomplish this monumental
feat without the risk of serious,
racist backlash from the white
community? The answer:
Sidney Poitier.
In the 1950’s, Poitier and Harry Belafonte were
handsome, black actors who
were stretching the limits of
race relations in film by becoming leading men opposite
white, female actresses. But,
while Belafonte was the handsome, light-skinned, more
‘militant’ leading man, Poitier
was the handsome, darkskinned, more ‘integrationist’
leading man. And, it was this
‘high-road’ aspect of ‘turning
the other cheek’ and wanting
to ‘blend in’ with white society
that made Poitier a Hollywood
favorite and ultimately, a legend.
In 1963, Poitier
starred in Lilies of the Field
where he portrayed a black,
ex-G.I. who reluctantly helps
a group of white nuns build a
chapel in the Arizona desert.
The role won him an Academy
Award as Best Actor and he
made history as the first black
man to win an Oscar in
that category.
In 1965, in A Patch
of Blue, Poitier made history
again when he appeared as a
kind, conscientious black man
who aids a blind white girl (actress Elizabeth Hartman) improve her life and self-esteem
by confronting her racist, abusive, alcoholic mother (Shelley
Winters).
There is a brief,
screen kiss between Poitier and
Hartman and the line forbidding black male/white female
intimacy had been crossed.
By this time, Poitier was in
the position to do no wrong.
He was ‘Super-Sidney’: the
perfect, mannerly, intelligent,
good-looking ‘Negro’ who
was above reproach. He became white movie audiences’
ideal, ‘acceptable’ black person. And,
the role that would brand the
‘S’ on his chest to white audiences for good was Guess
Who's Coming To Dinner?
Released in 1967,
Poitier portrays an older, black
doctor who wants to get engaged and marry a younger,
white girl (Katherine Houghton). However, he refuses to
marry her unless they have the
approval of her white parents
(Spencer Tracy and Katherine
Hepburn). The in-love, interracial couple travel to her
parents’ home, inform them of
their relationship and future intentions and ask them to invite
his black parents (Roy Glenn,
Jr. and Beah Richards) over for
dinner the same night. Poitier’s character has to leave for a
medical assignment soon and
Houghton’s character wants to
follow, so they need an answer
quickly.
In reality, Poitier and
Houghton’s characters are being somewhat selfish and selfserving by asking for their
four parents’ blessing in such
a short amount of time. However, it really should be a nobrainer for Houghton’s family.
‘Super-Sidney’ is handsome,
mannerly, and a Nobel Prize
candidate as a physician!
What more could any parent,
white or black, want for their
daughter?
The real crux of the
dilemma is that Tracy and
Hepburn’s characters are two
liberal, middle-class parents
who are supposed to be ‘sophisticated’ and ‘hip’ and so
accepting of the issue of racial
equality and interracial marriage.
But, when they discover it is their daughter who
wants to marry a black man,
then they really have to search
their conscience to resolve
their own, unintentional bigotry and prejudices they never
thought they possessed.
In the end, in true
Hollywood, ‘happily-ever-after’ style, Poitier and Houghton get all four of their parents’
permission to marry and they
leave to the airport to begin
their new lives as husband and
wife.
By this time, in the
mid-to-late 60’s, black politics
had begun to shift as some in
the African-American community began to believe the integrationist ideas as outdated and
moved from following Martin
Luther King, Jr.’s to Malcolm
X’, Stokley Carmichael’s and
H. Rap Brown’s ‘Black Power’
philosophies.
Guess Who’s Coming For Dinner? was an important message film and will
always be remembered as one
of Poitier’s best. It will also
be remembered as creating
a new genre of great, black
male/white female relationship movies that would come
decades later, like The Great,
White Hope (1970, starring
James Earl Jones and Jane Alexander), Jungle Fever (1991,
starring Wesley Snipes and
Annabella Sciorra) and Save
The Last Dance (2001, starring
Sean Patrick Thomas and Julia
Styles).
