Today, we're going to look back at 1985 with three prominent journalists together, will reflect on what happened in the past year, and we'll examine the lasting effect of those events on us through 1986 and beyond. What about the future of Provident Hospital AIDS Research and the Stop the Killings campaign? And after 16 years of representing Maryland and Washington, Congressman Karen Mitchell will retire. Who will succeed him? No King holiday for 5000 city employees. And mom till today, News Corp.. We'll talk about that situation. Hi, I'm Howard Anthony, and on today's edition of the Entertainment Page, I'll be featuring Stevie Wonder's Go Home from his latest chart topping album In Squares Circles.

And thank you for joining us and happy New Year. Happy New Year to you. Happy New Year to you, too. And everybody out there. You have a good start to the year so far. It has been marvelous. Marvelous. Well, now that we're into a new year, we're going to spend some time today and look back on 1985. Get a feel for some of the major events that impacted on us locally and nationally and see what's ahead in 1986. Exactly.

Well, thanks for being with us. Thank you. Next to Wiley is Missouri, seen when born of the Baltimore Afro-American newspapers. And sitting immediately next to her is Mr. Sam Fulwood. Thanks for being. One of the events that certainly impacted the black community in 1985 was a visit by the outspoken leader of the Nation of Islam, Minister Farrakhan. What type of of lasting impact is his visit going to have? Is there anything that's going to spill over into in 1986, do you think? Well, you know, certainly the controversy surrounding surrounding his remarks and and what happened when he appeared here will last in 86 and probably beyond. You know, he's also proposed a a campaign, the power products. And we'll have to see at first if that becomes a reality and secondly, how it's supported. What impact do you think it had raising? Well, I think he was able to galvanize large sections of the community. Not only were working class and unemployed blacks drawn to Minister Farrakhan, if you were to have attended the Morgan speech, you'll find that there were middle class and as well as working class blacks who were there who was struck by, if not the message, the magnetism of the man. I think a lot of people, whether you agreed with his point of view or not, found him to be very charismatic. What about Sam? You know, I happen to think that not a whole lot is going to going to come from that, because Minister Farrakhan has been on the scene for almost two decades. And in that time, he's made pretty much the same pronouncements that he made when he was in Baltimore. And it was only through the use of some of the media platform that he got in 1984 with the campaign of Jesse Jackson, that he was able to get attention.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881#t=190.32,313.06"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881/transcript/41902/annotation/3","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"And I think what we saw in 85 was a carryover of that media attention. I think the media is going to start paying attention to him and his audiences will shrink as a result. Why would they why would the media stop paying attention to him? Isn't he newsworthy? Well, I think he's as newsworthy now as he ever was. It's just that I don't think the platform is going to be there for him in 86. That was there in 85. There was a lot of of anger and emotion that sort of fed itself with his anti-Semitic remarks. And I think that I think the only get that just so much from that. I think maybe he maybe have peaked in terms of being able to exploit the media for that reason. His message, which I happen to think is rather rather serious and profound when he's not being caustic about it, is the same message that he's been making since the sixties, and the media didn't pay any attention to it then. But I disagree with that. I feel that wherever Minister Farrakhan goes, you know, he will be news. I believe that he strikes. You know, he's he's fascinates a lot of people. I think that whites I think that that that Jews are so intimidated by the man and his message that they will forever want to create an impression in the minds of blacks that this man is dangerous. I think, you know, wherever he is, he will have an audience. You know, I think, though, that Sam does have a point and it concerns me, and that is that a lot of his attraction seems to be for his entertainment value. A lot of what he's been saying has been said by a broad spectrum of black leaders.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881#t=313.6,405.13"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881/transcript/41902/annotation/4","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"And they don't get the coverage. They don't get the cheering crowd. But the fact is that he couches his remarks in a very confrontational way. And I think it's the entertainment value and I think it's in 1986. We need to see if people are merely entertained by him or if they're going to follow him and respond to what he said. May I just interject one point? Before you weren't entertainment. I would I would disagree with. I think he he is a legitimate force in the community. Whether you agree with his message or not, I think he should be taken seriously. And I think entertainment is a little bit of a dig, you know, for him. We're going to take a break right there and we're going to continue with what should be a very lively discussion in just a minute. Please stay with us. We'll return. And. And. And. You're back doing a 1985 and review with Wylie Hall Racing when Born and Sam Fulwood. Before we went to the break, Wiley Racing took issue with your use of the word entertainment in reference to Minister Farrakhan. I'd like to respond to that, if I may. Yeah, by entertainment. That was a dig, but it was a dig actually at the audience and not at Minister Farrakhan. You know, his his message may be serious, but the question is, how is the audience taking it? Are they responding to his confrontational tone or are they responding to the message? And that's what I mean by by entertainment. Let me ask the question kind of following up to that. Is Minister Farrakhan the only black leader out there who is at most not bringing together black folks? And is is his kind of leadership the kind that most attracts black people because it's part entertainment and part real and part serious and part I think it's the kind that most attracts media coverage.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881#t=405.79,602.31"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881/transcript/41902/annotation/5","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"I differ with Sam that that that the media will drop him in 86. He remains despite his message, he remains good copy. Okay. Who are some of the other black leaders? Just naming them. Jesse Jackson probably leads the list. There's been hawks. There's there's John Jacobs of the Urban League. There's great Shirley Chisholm with her new women's political population. You've proven that. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of variety. It tends to be the same names. And I think that when you start talking about media attention, a person like a Jesse Jackson or a Louis Farrakhan who has charisma, who is able to to attract audiences as well as people, as well as television cameras, has something that that the media sort of grabs hold to and says this is the person that's going to make good copy. This is going to be a person who will look good on television. And and what they say or do often doesn't doesn't follow in terms of covering the story the same. And sometimes what tends to happen also on that point is that the media tends to dub a person a leader, a black leader, when necessarily the community doesn't necessarily feel that way. Let's not segway over into a local leader. Congressman Parren Mitchell has announced his retirement. He's a man who's been in Congress for 16 years, is, by all accounts, done an extremely good job in terms of representing both local, national and minority issues. What's going to happen? There are a large number of contenders for his spot.

I think that Parren Mitchell had a reputation as Mr. Small Business and that when when a guy in Mississippi had trouble starting a business, he went to parent. And that voice won't be in Congress any longer. I think that his constituency grew much larger than Baltimore to to a national constituency. And I think that was exemplified by the fact that he traveled the country speaking about the issues that he talked about, not just in Baltimore. You know, it sort of points out the one problem the black community nationally has, and that is that we're so thin in terms of leadership that when one man retires, it has a tremendous impact across the board. I would have to come in a little locally because I tend to get a lot of questions from people in the community who are having a problem with the field of candidates, the ever growing field of candidates who are there. Now. I've already announced to date that I can think of about there are about six or seven that are announced or run announced and the list continues to grow and it looks like it may end up to be another situation like the Second District Council race of 1983, where you had 22 candidates running for one seat. But doesn't say then that if we can't talk about you saying that the leadership is thin, well, isn't that an indictment on the community that we have not groomed folk to take over when our our leaders are on the on the wane? Well, actually, maybe we're being premature because a number of these candidates are really, really qualified.

And but I think we should give them the chance to see if they can do. But I think there are two points that I wanted to bring up. One is, I don't necessarily think that the candidate, whoever should be trying to carry on in parents footsteps. I think that, you know, it's time for a new era of thinking, not that there were any problems with what the congressman had has achieved in his, you know, auspicious career, but that whoever steps into the seat needs to forge ahead with his or her his own political ideas and way of thinking. And secondly, the one thought that always comes to mind that I get from a lot of people down at the Afro-American is why. Are so many people running for one office? Why? Well, voice in the wilderness. It's an important job. It's a big job. It's a natural national constituency. And I don't I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing that so many people are running. I think it's very important that the seventh District, for instance, has a choice. And they're certainly going to get one. One thing that a lot of people have raised, one question is whether or not this will prove divisive to the community. And the answer that I've heard again and again is that it won't be. But what about the days when the politicians went into the room? They fussed, they cussed, They called each other names and they emerged with two or three prime candidates. Don't you think that that would be an ideal situation since the issue of divisiveness is coming? I think that would be ideal for the politicians, but not for the voters. You know, those days we need to divorce ourselves as far as possible from those days because that was not a democracy.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881#t=805.17,902.8"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881/transcript/41902/annotation/8","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"One of our parents, I guess big issues in his last term locally was the Stop the Killing campaign. Baltimore experienced a a wrath of killings amongst young people and mainly amongst young minority people. What's happened with that, which is to stop the killing is still an issue. At the risk of being playing the devil's advocate, which I seem to be doing today, I think it was an honorable effort, but an exercise in futility. I believe that the overriding issues that relate to a teenage murderer, black on black crime are cannot, you know, can't be put in a little prison. The issues that are that problem is a situation that feeds into a whole lot of other situations. And a bumper sticker campaign and marches while they are certainly they help the problem. I don't think I think they're shot in the dark. You know, let me just do one thing. We have been remiss and not inviting our home audience in to join us. Please call us now if you want to do a year in review of 1985. Call us at 41, 13, 13 and give us your ideas about some of these issues we're discussing now. Why? I want to disagree with racism partly in revenge. You know, I think that that is a very important thing because as quietly as it's kept the best kept secret in the board within the city police department is that they saw such a huge percentage of these murders, because not only do these kids murder, but they also brag about it. They go and tell their girlfriends, you know, hey, I just killed someone. And the girlfriend, you know, responds in horror and tells the police now.

There has been the attention given to it, and now we've got to get get parents and churches and other groups to say we want to do something about it. We're going to put the finger on these people. When we find out about it, we will not be silent about it. We will not give tacit support to this type of behavior. I think that's the next step. I think that's going to continue. I think that that just began and there's a lot of attention, a lot of concern in the community about that issue. Now, there again, I would say that the community has always been aware that there was a problem with black on black crime and that what the the Stop the Killing campaign has done is become a media issue and not necessarily something that the community needed to be reminded of. And the fact that there's not been any concrete impact on the numbers of blacks, particularly black male youths who have been murdered, indicates that it is just an exercise in media.

Before we left, we were discussing I stopped going camping, growing out of discussion. Perron Mitchell, before we leave, the good congressman. We mentioned his impact in terms of both locally and nationally, in terms of small businesses and so forth. But, uh, are there any other significant areas for which there's going to be a void created when apparently his office is or any of his committee chairmanships or memberships in the Congress? Are there any in particular that are going to be very valuable and saw losses? Well, I would say the one that comes to mind almost immediately is the fact that he was the first the first black congressman from Baltimore to go to the to Washington. And certainly the fact, though, I disagree with the impact of the Stop the Killing campaign, the fact that Paramount has always been the kind of man and politician who would come out, you know, if the community needed him, he responded.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881#t=1241.03,1420.32"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881/transcript/41902/annotation/11","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"He didn't lock himself away in Washington. He's always been accessible both to me as a as a journalist and to the broader community. His human, the human side of power. And Mitchell Parent has also been a very outspoken critic of the Reagan administration. And I can't think of anyone, certainly within Congress, who has criticized and confronted the Reagan administration to the extent it parent has. But I should put it in here. That parent told me quite firmly that he's retiring from Congress and not from politics and not from public life. So I think we'll still hear his voice. But then, too, he's also been well-respected among the leadership of Congress, too, hasn't he? I know I've read over and over how they've called Parren to get the the feelings about certain bills that were to be introduced or voted on or his seniority. And the fact that he is black in Congress has given him that that leadership position, that that accrues with the leadership and with with being in understanding the operation of Congress over a period of time. I think he's been somewhat of a role model for some of the other members of the Congressional Black Caucus. And that, too, I'm sure, will be missed. Certainly whoever his predecessor will be, they will have to be able to deal with the problem of minority businesses as parent house. We're going to have to press on here and we're going to leave leave Baltimore for a few minutes and talk about South Africa. South Africa gained prominence in the media in the last year or two after having not that the situation changed, but having lost lost its visibility in the media for a number of years. Why is it back in the media? Why does it come back so, so greatly in 1985?

And you're talking about a ringside seat. Sam, you were in South Africa for how long? For three months for a firsthand point of view. What did you come away knowing about South Africa and apartheid? That's a very difficult thing to answer. I came away probably more confused than I was going in. I think it is an entrenched system that is not going to roll over and die any time in the near future. I think it'll be there in 1987. I think that there will be changes and modifications, but I think that the basic working of a white minority government dominating a majority black population will continue for for at least a while. Locally, the South African issue mobilized a lot of people, brought together a lot of coalitions of organizations and so forth. Is that going to continue? Yeah, but you know what? We're going to find out something. To an extent, we're already finding it. And that is the the the great connection between Baltimore and South Africa and then Maryland in South Africa. You know, the city council, you may remember, tried to pass a law gradually or a resolution gradually, ordering the city trustees to divest from companies doing business with South Africa.

The ship in that far back appears to be a tad at various front. For example, in the media, there are things that are going on in the media and there are things that are going on here in the United States to stop the flow of of entertainers going to South Africa, performing and the Krugerrand and being attacked and that the value is coming down. Okay. Let our panelists respond to some of the issues you've raised. Thank you, Wiley. I think that the most important thing that's happened in this country with regard to South Africa has been that Americans have become educated as to what apartheid and the government's policies are all about.

I think the more we know, the better we able to influence our government's policies. But in terms of undermining or ending apartheid, that's something that the South Africans themselves are going to have to do. We need to address ourselves to Winnie Mandela. What is going to be her impact? I read something recently where she's been likened to Rosa Parks and how she incited the people to do something about injustices. Well, I think it's going to be her impact.

So many things happened in 1985. We could go on and for another year talk about 1985. But we're going to complete our review of 1985 with our journalists. Now let's move on to Provident Hospital. We know that it went back into receivership with Trustee George Russell. He's bringing it out into the forefront again. What about it? One thing that disturbed me about Provident Hospital was that there seemed to be a feeling on the part of both sides that doctors and the board of trustees to drive the issue as far as it could go with the belief that the state would bail it out.

And marketing is very key nowadays. And in health care, hospitals are all doing ads and commercials and such. Providence is going to have to do that to regain a sense of confidence in the community. I think that the most damaging thing of of 85 at Provident was a loss of esteem at the hospital to all kinds of horror stories about what goes on there. And I think now it's going to be incumbent upon the directors of the hospital to to get people to feel good about it so that they'll want to go there. I think what we'll see, though, is that in 86, the the new plan for Provident will not market itself towards the black community. I mean, Provident it now is moving towards some very specific health care areas and they're doing it in conjunction with with the other hospitals in the area. And I think they aren't going to they aren't going to their whole plan is not to rely on the black community, per se, to survive. I think that I hope we've we've learned a lesson from Provident.

And going back to my original point, I think the reason that they were able to do that for Morgan and all the other institutions was the belief that the white power structure will build them out. And that's very unfortunate. In 1985, nationally acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome became a major issue of the death of Rock Hudson and other several other prominent outbreaks of the disease in Maryland and in Baltimore. Washington metropolitan area in particular. The number of blacks with AIDS is very significant. Um, what what do we have to look forward? Well, it was a I interviewed Dr. Polk over at Hopkins who was heading the research program several months ago. The problem with AIDS in the black community has been one where we have been less willing to believe that AIDS can hurt us, that AIDS can strike us. We have viewed it as a problem affecting whites and not necessarily as a black problem. And I think the other side of that coin is the media. The PR job that's been done by researchers with AIDS has been damaging that other than the information that its origins were in Africa and Haitians has turned some of the community off.

King's widow, Coretta, and other members of the family will be in attendance. D.C. Representative Walter Fauntroy, a former King aide, will give the invocation. This month marks the first national observance of the King holiday. And throughout the nation, numerous activities are planned on January the 15th and January the 20th in honor of the holiday. But for 5000 Baltimore City employees, there will be no formal observance, although city agencies will be closed on the 15th. Members of the Classified Municipal Employees Association will be required to spend that day at a convention center attending workshops, a decision many of those employees are not satisfied with. Joining me now to discuss these developments is Ed Tilden, deputy labor commissioner for Baltimore City. Mr. Tilden, thank you for joining us this afternoon. According to an article in Friday's Afro, a number of city employees are dissatisfied with the decision that they will have to attend workshops on January the 15th and not celebrate the King holiday. We don't mean to shoot the messenger or the bearer of bad news, but, Mr. Tilden, how did that decision come about in Baltimore City? We have collective bargaining with all various employer organizations. We have some 12 contracts in effect. One of the provisions of the contract has to do with holidays. Holidays cannot be imposed on employees by the government, and neither can those employees impose a holiday on the city. That was a provision in the CMA contract, however, that asked the city to form a committee to discuss the implementation of the King birthday as a holiday should it become a federal holiday. At the time we negotiated our agreements back in early 1984 and then negotiated an agreement for two years covering a period from July one, 84 through June 30, 86.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881#t=2474.47,2592.22"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881/transcript/41902/annotation/20","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"At that time, the federal government had not acted and there was no provision in the contract for the observance of the holiday other than the fact that the union, the city would get together to discuss that, as you know, and collective bargaining by its very nature. There is give and take, there is exchange, there's compromise. We met with the MTA representatives as we dealt with the members of all of the organizations that did not have the holiday as a as an observance. And to do that, there had to be some give and take. Let me jump in there for a second. Let me ask you this. Did city employees have any input into that decision? The city employees negotiated through their employer organizations. That is what the collective bargaining process is all about. Have a situation here where we've got several union. INS representing city employees and the majority of those unions negotiated. Union negotiated the holiday, but c MTA did not. Is that correct? What happens once it became a federal holiday? That is the birthday. We met with these various unions to see if they wanted to compromise or in any way modify their agreements with us to have the holiday this year. Most of those unions did agree, except for the MTA that decided, and rightfully so, to keep the contract intact as it was and to not make any modifications. And basically that's because they were unwilling to give up a personal leave day, a vacation day or any other compromise. Is that correct? It was because they were unwilling to modify their contract. There are many different things that they could have done giving up the personal leave. They was just one of many. Okay.

You know, since his singing debut in 1961, Stevie Wonder may have well become the greatest legend of mid 20th century music. At the age of 34, he has been involved in the record industry for an amazing 24 years. In that time, Stevie has received virtually every award, which the industry can give him since his first record called Fingertips, Made back in 1963, he has written and performed many classic songs, including You Are The Sunshine of My Life, My Cherie, A More and Isn't She Lovely? Above all, he has become known for his masterful craftsmanship in the recording and production of his albums. Although he has always been successful, the major turning point in his career came in 1971, when he was 21 years old and was able to take full creative control of his work, his albums. The 12 year old genius and the songs in the Key of Life hit the charts simultaneously in 1963, while he received in the seventies critical acclaim for his first motion picture soundtrack, Journey through the Secret Life of Plants, His introductory album to the eighties, Hotter than July, was dedicated to the Nobel Peace Prize winner Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. While his next album, original musical, was being produced. And as Stevie worked endlessly to ensure that Dr. King's birthday would be declared a national holiday during the same period, he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. And in 1984, Stevie once again released a soundtrack album called The Woman in Red, which became one of the most successful soundtrack albums of the year. But the album that has been The Talk of the Town is his latest in Square Circle, which is in the making for a half a decade, with Stevie Wonder's latest hit from that album, Here's Go Home and the song Thank You for Flying your stay in Los Angeles.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881#t=2815.55,3070.49"},{"id":"https://marmia.aviaryplatform.com/collections/948/collection_resources/80706/file/168881/transcript/41902/annotation/23","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"If you don't. 1007.
