Texas Gov. Rick Perry Indicted
For Abuse of Power
Dallas ISD Trustee Joyce Foreman
will highlight District 6 Each Month
Gov. Rick Perry
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - A grand jury indicted Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Friday for allegedly abusing the powers of
his office by carrying out a threat to veto funding for state prosecutors investigating public corruption - making
the possible 2016 presidential hopeful his state's first indicted governor in nearly a century.
A special prosecutor spent months calling witnesses and presenting evidence that Perry broke the law when
he promised publicly to nix $7.5 million over two years for the public integrity unit run by the office of Travis
County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg. Lehmberg, a Democrat, was convicted of drunken driving, but
refused Perry's calls to resign.
Though the Republican governor now faces two felony indictments, politics dominates the case. Lehmberg is
based in Austin, which is heavily Democratic, in contrast to most of the rest of fiercely conservative Texas. The
grand jury was comprised of Austin-area residents.
Gov. Perry is charged with the following
Count I. Abuse of Official Capacity, a first degree felony
Count II. Coercion of Public Servant, a third degree felony
Thousands Mourn Michael Brown
Thousands mourn Michael Brown, mourners filled an enormous
church to remember Michael Brown - a "gentle giant," aspiring rapper
and recent high school graduate on his way to a technical college.
But the funeral that unfolded Monday was about much more than the
18-year-old who lay in the closed casket after being shot to death by a
white police officer. The emotional service sought to consecrate
Brown's death as another in the long history of the civil rights movement and implored black Americans to change their protest chants
into legislation and law.
The trial for Dallas County Commissioner
John Wiley Price and other associates has
been delayed to Jan. 2016
The trial for Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price and
other associates has been
delayed to Jan. 2016.
It's the second delay for the
trial in as many days. Monday's
delay pushed the trial from Sept.
2014 to Sept. 2015.
Attorneys for Price and other
defendants requested a delay,
which was granted by the court.
First Day of School Brings New Opportunities
As Superintendent Mike Miles
entered Thomas L. Marsalis
Elementary School the morning
of Aug. 25, the scene was similar
to that taking place at 223 other
schools on the first day of classes
in the Dallas Independent School
District.
As the clock reached 7:50
a.m., a steady stream of smiling
children and focused family
members entered the building
and headed to their appointed
classrooms or other locations.
Outside, a handful of the more
than 793 school buses in use
across the district safely delivered smiling boys and girls to the
southern Dallas school.
Miles
and
Deputy
Superintendent Ann Smisko
chose Marsalis for the superintendent's first visit to highlight its participation in the Imagine 2020 initiative. Once on site, Miles interacted with media but came away impressed with the organization and
positive energy of Principal Kimberly Richardson and the Mustang
team.
"Every first day of school is a fresh canvas that is full of possibilities,
and Marsalis is a great example of that," Miles said. "For our school
district, a new school year is an opportunity to build upon the
achievements of our students, staff and Destination 2020. We're
excited, hopeful and ready to push the bar even higher in 2014-2015."
The morning featured only minor or localized challenges across
Dallas ISD, with students arriving at school on time, breakfast and
lunch being served as scheduled, and no major air conditioning challenges. By mid-day, the district was roaring like a well-tuned engine.
The opening of schools this year includes several major steps for
Dallas ISD:
•The introduction of the South Oak Cliff feeder pattern into the
expanding Imagine 2020 initiative. The 12 schools in that pattern,
including Marsalis, will redouble their efforts to increase student
achievement using innovative instruction, more professional development and community support.
•The addition of 50 multi-passenger vehicles (MPVs) into the bus
fleet. Dallas ISD, in conjunction with the Dallas County Schools, will
operate the 9-passenger vehicles that are similar to mini-buses.
Nearly 3,000 homeless students, deaf/special education students and
students who attend magnet or choice schools will ride the buses.
•For the second consecutive year, will provide school meals at no
charge to all students in the district. Dallas ISD is one of the largest
school district in Texas to provide this opportunity to students, available with funding provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture
through the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA).
Joyce Foreman was elected to
the Dallas ISD Board of Trustees,
representing District 6, in June of
2014. Throughout the upcoming
school year, our readers will have
the opportunity to hear from her
each month through her column
as she shares news about Dallas
ISD and the schools in the district
she represents.
District 6 covers southwest
Dallas. As a business owner and
community leader, Foreman will
use her experience in education
and the community to shape
Dallas ISD in District 6 and
throughout the district, where
her efforts will directly impact
students, teachers and staff.
Foreman brings experience
from a variety of education-related affiliations to the board. Most notably, she has served on the Dallas
ISD Bond Advisory Committee since 2002. Passionate about preparing
our students to be the best and brightest, Foreman has held other
leadership positions in the district as a member of the
Superintendent's Advisory Committee and the Commission on
Educational Excellence.
Providing decades of civic involvement to Dallas citizens Foreman
has previously served on the Greater Dallas Chamber Executive
Committee, as Vice Chair of Dallas Area Rapid Transit Board, Chase
Bank of Texas Board and El Centro College Office Career Advisory
Committee.
In 1981, after leading a successful career as a corporate buyer,
Foreman decided to start and own a local company. Her entrepreneurial spirit led her to form Foreman Office Products, a business venture that lasted 30 years until her retirement in 2011.

McFarland Named Superintendent
of the Year Finalist
LANCASTER-And then there
were
five...Lancaster
Independent School District
Superintendent and Regional
Superintendent of the Year Dr.
Michael McFarland has made it
to the next round of selection for
the statewide honor. Five public
school administrators from
across Texas were selected as
state finalists for the annual
Superintendent of the Year
(SOTY) award sponsored by the
Texas Association of School
Boards (TASB). Since 1984, the
SOTY program has recognized
exemplary superintendents for
excellence and achievement in
educational leadership.
The 2014 finalists and nominating education service centers
(ESCs) are A. Marcus Nelson, Laredo ISD, ESC 1; Jon Wunderlich,
Weimar ISD, ESC 3; Danny Taylor, Burkburnett ISD, ESC 9; Michael
McFarland, Lancaster ISD, ESC 10; and Mark Eads, San Marcos CISD,
ESC 13.
The state selection committee, which interviewed regional winners
August 22-23 in Austin, targeted such issues as the long-term success
of public education, implementation of House Bill (HB) 5 and recommendations for the next legislative session, staff morale and maintenance of district health, program and student success, and the superintendent's role as a leader for students, staff, and community.
At the helm of Lancaster ISD for four years, McFarland has a total
of 16 years in education administration and serves more than 6,300
students. McFarland believes that students have changed, and we
must be willing to change the education system for these different
types of learners. His philosophy of listen, learn, and lead was cited,
and the committee also noted that McFarland interviewed every senior to ensure each student had a "flight" plan after graduation. He
earned a bachelor's degree at Baylor University, master's degree at
Stephen F. Austin State University, and doctorate at Baylor University.
Candidates are chosen for their strong leadership skills, dedication
to improving educational quality, ability to build effective employee
relations, student performance, and commitment to public involvement in education. Superintendents from any of Texas' 1,030 local
school districts are eligible for nomination by their school boards.
Local nominees are submitted to a regional selection committee,
which chooses one nominee to send to the state selection committee.
The 2014 Superintendent of the Year will be announced September
26 at the TASA/TASB Convention in Dallas. The winning superintendent will receive an award from Balfour, program underwriter.
Dallas: Too Busy Growing To Hate!

D EA R E D I T O R :
Dear Editor,
Warmer temperatures are a welcome change after a long, cold winter—but as the mercury rises, it’s crucial to protect our animal companions
by never leaving them in parked vehi-
cles. Every year, PETA receives dozens
of reports of animals suffering and
dying in hot, parked cars. Cruelty-toanimals charges are routinely filed in
such cases.
It only takes minutes for a parked
car to cook an animal alive: On a warm
day, even with the windows cracked,
the temperature inside a parked car
can reach more than 160 degrees.
Parking in the shade and/or leaving
water in the vehicle won’t help.
Symptoms of heatstroke include restlessness, excessive thirst, heavy panting, lethargy, lack of appetite and coordination, dark tongue, and vomiting.
Dogs can succumb to heatstroke in just
15 minutes, resulting in brain damage
or death.
Please, when it’s even a little warm
outside, never leave any living being in
a parked car, even for “just a minute.” If
you see a dog left in a car, have the
owner paged or call 911 immediately—
the dog’s life depends on it. Visit
www.PETA.org to learn more.

Martin Mersereau, Director

Leadership Should Reflect the Racial Composition of Our Communities
BY CONGRESSWOMAN EDDIE BERNICE
JOHNSON
The shooting of a young African
American teenager, Michael
Brown, by a white Ferguson,
Missouri law enforcement officer
has pushed that St. Louis suburban
area to the boiling point. It also
contains many lessons for the rest
of the country, and an opportunity
for change.
In the nights that followed the
shooting, groups of protesters displayed their frustration and anger.
They were confronted by local
police officers who were armed as
if they were about to do battle
with foreign terrorists, not
American citizens engaged in
peaceful protests.
The problems in Ferguson, however, are deeper than the tragic
shooting of young Michael Brown.
They reflect patterns of racial injustice and political imbalance in a
city in which members of its elected government, and citizens concerned with justice and prudence
must work hard to correct.
In the city of Ferguson, 67 percent of the residents are African
American. Yet, the city’s police
force is 95 percent white. Five of
the six members of the City Council
are white. In 2013, 92 percent of
all police searches of individuals in
Ferguson, 86 percent of all stops
made by the police and 93 percent
of all arrests were of African
Americans, according to official
reports. These disparities, no
doubt, led to the unrest that
occurred in Ferguson.
The leadership of the city must
do more to recruit minority candidates to become members of the
police force. At the same time,
members of the minority community must do all that they can to
identify and support candidates for
elected office.
The leadership of Ferguson
must insist upon the implementation of Community Policing, a policy developed in Texas in which
police and citizens work together
to protect communities from crime
and violence. Under the system of
Community Policing, members of
the police force are not viewed as
enemies. Rather, they are perceived as protectors of citizens,
and their property. A partnership
is formed with residents and business owners interacting closely
with law enforcement officials.
Perhaps if Community Policy
were in effect in Ferguson, the officer accused of killing Michael
Brown would called him over to
his police car so that the two of
them could talk, rather than
engage in a confrontation, as some
witnesses to the incident have
alleged.
We must never again witness
the types of military hardware displayed on the streets of Ferguson,
with swat team snipers poised to
shoot at protesters. This is not the
American way. We must also
understand that the conditions
that precipitated events in
Ferguson exist in other cities
throughout our country. And we
must take steps to rectify those
conditions before we witness a
repeat of what most Americans
found revolting in a city located in
the heartland of our democracy.
REV. JOHNNY C. SMITH, PASTOR –
MOUNT MORIAH MISSIONARY
BAPTIST CHURCH
The first question uttered in
the bible came from God. It was
a question directed to the capstone of His creation - man. This
question was uttered by God
after man had sinned in disobeying God's only restriction placed
upon man's liberty. God had
blessed Adam and placed him in
God had with them had been
marred.
Sin will always mar out fellowship with God and when Adam
and Eve heard the voice of God
walking in the garden, they
became afraid, trying to hide
themselves from the presence of
God. God then raised a question
to Adam: "Where Art Thou?"
The question raised by God to
Adam suggests two amazing
facts. First, the question indicates that it was Adam who was
lost, and not God. God, in His
amazing love, came looking for
the capstone of His creation.
Secondly, the question suggest
that man has worth. Man had so
much value until it required
Heaven's best to redeem him
from the plight that he was in.
Yes, my friend, if you are
unsaved, God has sent His only
begotten Son to die for you. Do
you believe that? If so, turn to
God, believing that Jesus Christ
has died for your sin, and you can
be saved. Because of our forefather's sin (Adam), every man
born into this world is a sinner
and needs a Savior. Why don't
you trust Jesus Christ to be your
Savior, if you are unsaved?
Remember, God provided the
only substitute for the tragic spiritual condition of man, and that
was the death of His Son. If you
are unsaved, Jesus Christ has
paid the full price of your
redemption, and all He requires
you to do is accept Him and be
saved. Yes, you are valuable to
God and it is His desire that you
be saved. What a marvelous act
of love by God in the utterance
of the question to Adam, "Where
Art Thou?"
Dallas ISD receives certificate of excellence for financial reporting
The Dallas Independent
School District has received a
top award for its financial
reporting for the 2013 fiscal
year, earning the Certificate of
Excellence
from
the
Association of School Business
Officials International.
The award, the only of its
type specifically designed for
school district financial reporting, is based on Dallas ISD’s
Comprehensive
Annual
Financial Report, or CAFR, for
that year. The CAFR is important because it provides a clear
analysis of how well the district
handles, controls and protects
its financial resources.
“Dallas ISD is pleased to
receive this honor because it is
the result of the hard work and
emphasis we place on protect-
ing resources provided by our
community,” said Mike Miles,
Dallas ISD superintendent. “As
part of Destination 2020, we
are working to strengthen our
systems and increase transparency, and this award proves
it.”
To receive the award, a
school district must satisfy specific guidelines for effective,
high-quality financial reporting
recognized by school business
officials. The honor comes just
weeks after Moody’s Investors
Service has assigned Dallas ISD
a bond rating of Aa1 for the
second year in a row. Since
2012, Dallas ISD has not
received a rating lower than an
Aa2.
Differences in Black and White
BY GEORGE E. CURRY
NNPA COLUMNIST
Public opinion polls confirm
a fact that has been documented in instances ranging from
the O.J. Simpson verdict to
recent events in Ferguson:
When it comes to race, Blacks
and Whites largely view events
through a different set of lenses.
Several recent polls provided
yet more proof of this disheartening trend.
According to a recent New
York Times/CBS News poll,
more than half of Black
Americans polled - 57 percent said the killing of the unarmed,
18-year-old Michael Brown by
Ferguson, Mo. Police Officer
Darren Wilson on Aug. 9 was
"not justified." Among Whites,
25 percent said the shooting
death was unjustified.
In addition, 31 percent of
White Americans, and 71 percent of Blacks, said they think
police are generally more likely
to use deadly force against a
person of color than a White
person.
The performance of Gov. Jay
Nixon, a Democrat, also
received mixed reviews, so to
speak. He mobilized the
Missouri State Highway Patrol
and then activated the
Missouri National Guard after
declaring a state of emergency
and imposing a curfew. Blacks
were twice as likely as Whites
to say involving the National
Guard only made matters
worse.
Only a quarter of Blacks
nationally are satisfied with
Gov. Nixon's actions, while
nearly half said Nixon's performance in the aftermath of
the shooting was unsatisfactory. In contrast, Whites were
divided: A third were satisfied
and a third dissatisfied
Not surprisingly, Blacks,
Obama's most loyal bloc, continue to back him by large margins.
Sixty percent of African
Americans said they were satisfied with the president's
actions; 20 percent said they
were dissatisfied. Whites were
split, with 35 percent in support of President Obama and
39 percent dissatisfied.
The New York Times poll
showed that 10 percent of
those surveyed thought race
relations have improved since
Obama has been in office, 52
percent felt they are about the
same as before and 35 percent
said race relations have gotten
worse under Obama. Of those
saying things had gotten worse,
40 percent were White and 21
percent
were
African
American.
There are many independ-
ent markers that indicate, in
general, that race relations
have improved over the last
half century, including attitudes
toward interracial marriages.
Amid such progress, however,
there is undeniable evidence
that Blacks and Whites look at
racially-tinged events from a
different perspective.
A survey conducted by the
Pew Research Center for the
People & the Press found that
80
percent
of
African
Americans say the shooting in
the St. Louis suburb of
Ferguson raises important
issues about race that merit
discussion. By contrast, only 37
percent of Whites - less than
half the ratio of Blacks - feel
that way. In addition, among
Whites, 47 percent feel race is
getting more attention than it
deserves in the Michael Brown
case. But only 18 percent of
Blacks share that view.
According to the poll, 65
percent of Blacks feel police
have gone too far in reacting to
Michael Brown's death and 20
percent feel the response was
about right. Again, Whites had
a different reaction, with 33
percent saying police had gone
too far and a roughly equal proportion, 32 percent saying
authorities had acted properly.
More than half of all African
Americans - 54 percent reported they were following
events in Ferguson very closely.
Less than half of Whites -25
percent - and Latinos - 18 percent - said they were closely
following the events in
Missouri.
There was a political divide
as well, with 68 percent of
Democrats feeling the Michael
Brown case raises important
issues while only 22 percent of
Republicans contending it raises racial issues that need to be
discussed. Also, 61 percent of
Republicans say the issue of
race has gotten too much
attention in the case; only 21
percent of Democrats support
that view.
The 1996 murder trial of O.J.
Simpson exposed this raw
divide. A CNN/USA Today Poll
showed that 62 percent of
African-Americans supported
the jury's decision to acquit the
former football star. However,
only 20 percent of Whites
agreed with the jury. There was
a similar split in polls taken during Hank Aaron's campaign to
break Babe Ruth's all-time
home run record and Barry
Bond overtaking Aaron.
Even on a supposedly raceneutral issue such as federal aid
to victims of Hurricane Katrina,
racial views were split.
According to a CNN/USA Today
poll, six in 10 African Americans
said the federal government
was slow to rescue residents of
New Orleans because many of
them were Black. However,
only one in eight Whites concurred.
How can we narrow the
racial divide when we can't
even agree if there is one?
A Little Bit of Faith: There is Hope
---BY COLLEEN WHITE
When life is hard, you need
to seek out God and find rest in
Him. In the book of Psalm it
says, "But as for me, it is good
to be near God. I have made
the Sovereign Lord my refuge; I
will tell of all your deeds."
(Psalm 73:28) God is near even
when you think He is far away.
He is waiting for you to seek His
face and His will for your life.
Never allow yourself to feel like
there is no hope. There is
always hope.
Find your rest in Him.
We have to learn to be willing to take our eyes off of ourselves and look up to heaven
for our hope. Without hope life
can seem to be miserable. But
when you know there is someone greater than you who
wants the best for you, you can
rest in knowing that things will
be okay. For this reason, you
need to call on Him. He is willing to listen to you. Never feel
like you must do it all by yourself. Call on Him for help.
Therefore, when you feel
like you want to turn away
from God, you need to turn
toward Him instead.

The First Question Uttered in the Bible
a perfect environment which he
had dominion over, but He gave
Adam only one restriction: "But
of the tree of the knowledge of
good and evil, thou shalt not eat
of it; for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely
die."
Adam had only one restriction,
and he failed. Why? Because
Adam became self-willed, selfcentered, and self-seeking. As
chapter 3 opens, we find Adam's
wife, Eve, listening and responding to Satan's doubt of the veracity of God's Word. Satan wants
every person, especially those
who are unsaved, to be deceived
with regards to the truthfulness
of God's Word. By following
Satan's crafty suggestions, Eve
sinned in eating of the forbidden
fruit, and later Adam. As a result
of their sin, the fellowship that
Page 2A
The best place to find refuge
is in God's loving arms. There is
no other place you should want
to be when you feel like the
world is falling around you. You
can find rest in Him.
So let us be like the Psalmist,
"…it is good to be near God."
(Psalm 73:28) Do you want to
draw closer to God? If you do,
then simply call on Him and
find rest. Be at peace. Can you
do that this week? I know I will.
Amen? Amen.

My Day: Aunt Jemima Syrup
Two Billion Dollar Lawsuit
BY DR. J. ESTER DAVIS
Did you know that Anna
Short Harrington was a real
person? Her face only is
famous all over the world. That
is the face of the famous
branded Aunt Jemima Syrup.
She died in 1955. Her image
has been on the bottle of Aunt
Jemima Syrup since 1935 along
with other various products
massed produced by several
companies.
The grandson of Aunt
Jemima, nee Anna Short
Harrington, has filed a two($2)
billion dollar class action lawsuit on behalf of himself and all
of her great grandchildren.
The lawsuit is filed against
Quaker Oats, PepsiCo, Pinnacle
Food Group and The Hillshire
Brands Company. These companies have used this image
without equitable fair share of
royalties
for
over
sixty(60)years.
After Anna
Short Harrington took on the
role of the Aunt Jemima character in 1935, her likeness was
used by the companies and a
trademark was registered for it
in 1937.
When confronted
with this information, the companies denied that she was
ever an employee, stating they
could not find any employee
records. The denial continued
as it relates to exploiting her
image and recipes (plural) for
profit.
Anna Short Harrington was
supposedly selected because
of her own pancake recipe.
Now the companies have
added waffles , etc, to the line
of tasty breakfast goodies.
Royalties lawsuits have an
uphill battle in today's marketplace, mainly because the
court's are overwhelmed. The
Temptations (Motown male
vocal group) launched a class
action lawsuit for digital royalties. The larger, more pronounced lawsuits are about
music sampling, and of course,
the royalty rip-offs relating to
oil and gas.
In the case of the pancake
royalties, the family think they
have a chance at collecting
their overdue inheritance.
Quaker Oaks find no validity to
the action. Stay tuned.

Is Stephen Curry a Better Offensive Player than LeBron James?
Who is Gil Garza?
Veteran coach and athletic
director Gil Garza is the Dallas
ISD's new athletic director. He
most recently worked in the
San Antonio Independent
School District where he served
as athletic director from 20022014.
"The experience and leadership Gil brings is impressive,"
said Superintendent Mike
Miles. We knew he was the
best candidate to lead the
department as we forge ahead
and continue to provide the
best learning and athletic environment for our students."
Garza brings more than 30
years of coaching and athletic
leadership to the district,
including as an appointee of
the TEA Commissioner to the
University
Interscholastic
League (UIL) State Executive
Committee. The 11-member
committee interprets the rules,
settles disputes between UIL
districts, and conducts investigations and hears appeals of
Monday, September 1
alleged violations.
Garza is one of three current
athletic directors in the state to
sit on the committee.
"The immediate goal of the
athletics department is to
teach and mentor our staff as
we build a better system that
demonstrates a sense of pride,
class and credibility," said
Garza. "I'm happy to serve the
entire student body of the
Dallas ISD as we push to ensure
our students are college or
career ready upon graduation.
If we have competent, credentialed leaders who take pride in
shaping our students, we can
reach that goal."
Throughout his career, Garza
has been elected to various
state boards, including the
board of directors of the Texas
High School Athletic Directors
Association (THSADA). In 2009,
he was elected president of the
THSADA and in 2010 was
named
THSADA
Athletic
Director of the Year.
Gil Garza
Garza began his first week in
the district by issuing a commitment to principals to collaborate with each of them saying,
"It is my desire to work as part
of your team of excellence as a
respected resource you can
depend on when making the
critical decisions of hiring, evaluating, and developing your
coaches to be the best."

Golden State Warriors guard
Stephen Curry generated an
instant headline early last week
when he declared himself a
better offensive player than
four-time MVP LeBron James.
When asked on the Dan Patrick
Show who was the better
offensive player, Curry, known
for his accurate stroke, replied,
"Me."
James has dominated the
league over the last few years,
guiding the Miami Heat to four
consecutive finals appearances. Curry may have a point,
however. He's evolved into one
of the most dangerous offensive threats in the leag ue in
just a few short seasons. By far,
James is the better player. But
offensively, Curry's argument
seems pretty valid. Perry Green
and Stephen D. Riley of the
AFRO Sports Desk debate just
how valid that statement may
be.
Riley: Curry is easily more
skilled offensively than James.
His handle is tighter, his shot is
better, and his hardwood IQ is
just as sharp as any blue chip
NBA star. You're never going to
opt for James to take an open
shot over Curry. The 2014 NBA
All Star can fill it up, evidenced
by his selection this year. He's
been taught well by his father,
Dell Curry, and his fundamentals in every offensive portion
of his game are solid.
Green: Curry might be better
skilled but James can take over
games and that aspect to me
makes him the better offensive
player by default. James' size,
speed, and athleticism give him
the perfect combination to
attack any style of defense. His
post game has continued to
mature under the Heat organization and the range on his
jumper continues to strengthen. He's the ultimate player in
the NBA and the fact that he
can control a game once he
gets hot gives any team he's on
a chance to cut deficits or blow
games wide open. For all his
skills, a bigger defender can
often take Curry out of his
game. At his size and conditioning, James is indefensible.
Riley: James' size is always
going to win him any argument, but if we're talking
pound-for-pound and who's
the most skilled then I can't see
how it isn't Curry. He's already
one of the best, but put Curry
in James' body and what kind
of devastating player would
you have? I would put Curry
against anybody in any type of
three-point shooting or skillstype competition. Would
James really be the best player
in the world if he wasn't dominating defenders with his size?
Green: Quite possibly. James'
floor game and basketball
intellect make him just as much
the terror on the court as his
physical prowess. The reason
he's such an outstanding player
is based more on his wellrounded game than anything
else. Curry's skills are outstanding but he's never going to be
the force that James is, nor will
he match his leadership skills. A
few years ago, this would have
been a loaded question.
However, after years of growing up and reshaping his floor
game, James is now the ideal
player because he just exceeds
at everything that has to do
with basketball. I may not like
LeBron James very much, but I
will respect his skill set. I can
say this: I would rather watch
Stephen Curry shoot 40-foot
jumpers any time over LeBron's
game. It's just something
attractive about the long-ball
shot. But when we talk offensive efficiency, King James
comes second to no one.

Two historically-black high school football programs will meet during a gridiron battle. Teams from
Dallas ISD’s Madison and Little Rock’s Central high schools will face-off in the district’s only game
