CLEVELAND, Ohio-Women's March Cleveland will highlight that it has been 48 years since the U.S. Supreme Court, on Jan 22, 1973, issued a landmark decision that made abortion legal nationwide in Roe v, Wade at its fifth annual rally and women's march beginning at 1 pm. on Sat. Jan. 23, 2021 at Market Square on the city's near west side across from the Westside Market with a 2:30 pm anniversary march and caravan across the Carnegie Bridge.The contact phone number for the nonpartisan event is Women's March Cleveland at (216) 659-0473 CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE FACEBOOK EVENT PAGE FOR THIS EVENT

Ohio state Sen. Sandra Williams (pictured above) of Cleveland is among the rally speakers and will speak specifically on Roe v Wade and its impact on women as well as state legislative measures in Ohio that seek to interfere with the reproductive rights of women.

"We will use every means at our disposal as we continue the ongoing fight to protect Roe v. Wade and its legacy," said Women's March Cleveland head organizer Kathy Wray Coleman, a Black Cleveland activist.

Exactly what is Roe v. Wade?

On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court issued a 7–2 decision in favor of Norma McCorvey ("Jane Roe") that held that women in the United States have a fundamental right to choose whether or not to have abortions without excessive government restriction, and struck down Texas's abortion ban as unconstitutional.

The case affirmed that women had a constitutional right to access safe & legal abortion.

Since that time efforts have been underway, led by Congressional Republicans and White men to overturn the decision, the U.S. Supreme Court of which has a 603 conservative majority since the addition of Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a President Donald Trump appointee, to the high court's bench late last year.

Women will also salute the election of Kamala Harris as the country's first Black and first female vice president at the event and will denounce the failure by the U.S. Department of Justice to prosecute the two White Cleveland cops involved in the 2014 deadly shooting of 12-year-old Tamir Rice.

Other event issues include public education, reproductive rights, immigration and legal system reform, Blacks lives, equal pay, climate change, the Violence Against Women's Act, voting rights, opposition to pro-"Stand Your Ground" legislation in Ohio and elsewhere, racism, sexism, homophobia, excessive force against Black women, and disparities regarding to Black and Latino as to the coronavirus pandemic.

Organizers said they will also push for more women to be represented in science and technology fields at the upcoming rally and march.

Event speakers will also include family members of Cleveland women killed by domestic and other violence, state Rep. Stephanie Howse of Cleveland, whose speech will include a discussion on the dangers of "Stand Your Ground" legislation in Ohio and elsewhere as it relates to Black women and Black people, activist and motivational speaker Genevieve Mitchell of Cleveland, and Cleveland Ward 14 Councilwoman Jasmin Santana.

Four of the publicly announced candidates for the 11th Congressional District congressional seat soon to be vacated by future HUD secretary Rep Marcia L Fudge, who has been nominated for the post by President-elect Joe Biden, will speak, namely County Councilwoman Shontel Brown, former state Rep John Barnes Jr. former state senator Nina Turner, and Lavern Jones Gore.

Brown, Barnes Jr, and Turner, a co-chair of Bernie Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign and a Sanders surrogate, are Democrats, and Jones Gore is a Republican.

Brown is also chair of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party, the first Black woman to hold the post.

Other speakers include state Rep Juanita Brent of Cleveland, state Sen Nickie Antonio of Lakewood, Akron City Council President Tara Samples, area clergy, educators Dr. Robin Simmons and Dr. Mary Rice of the Metro Cleveland Alliance of Black School Educators, who is also an East Cleveland School Board member, Dr. Bennanaye Brooks of the League of Women Voters Greater Cleveland Chapter, and community activists Delores Gray of the Brickhouse Wellness Empowerment Center, Lee Thompson of Refusefacism. org, Don Bryant of the Greater Cleveland Immigrant Support Network and Peace Action, and Alfred Porter Jr. of Black on Black Crime.

Coronavirus safety precautions are required, including face-masks and social distancing, organizers said.

On Jan 21, 2017, days after President Trump's inauguration, hundreds of thousands of women in Cleveland and across the country, led by the national women's march out of Washington D.C., took to the streets for the first women's march to march against President Trump's racist and anti-female rhetoric during the 2016 presidential campaign and to fight for women's rights in general, the largest single day protest in American history.

Women's March Cleveland has been consistent in hosting an anniversary women's march each January since the first women's march in January of 2017 where 15,000 women across Northeast Ohio took to the streets of downtown Cleveland to march for equality.

Interview with Ralph Abernathy III, whose late father, Ralph Abernathy Sr., marched with MLK-Abernathy III, who has since died, said "my father and Uncle Martin [King] were like twins, and they even dressed alike sometimes, and he died in his arms"

CLEVELAND, Ohio-The late Rev. Dr. Ralph David Abernathy III (pictured), whose famed father, the Rev. Ralph David Abernathy Sr., marched along side of the late Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr during the Civil Rights Movement and led the Southern Christian Leadership Conference after King was assassinated, visited Cleveland, Ohio in Nov. 4, 2012 to stomp for Barack Obama's reelection to the presidency and he interviewed one-on-one with .Clevelandurbannews.com and Kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com, Ohio's most read Black digital newspaper and Black blog

“My father and Uncle Martin [King] were like twins, and they even dressed alike sometimes, and Uncle Martin died in his arms.” said Abernathy III, an evangelist and motivational speaker who grew up in Montgomery, AL. and served a decade in the Georgia State Legislature as an Atlanta senator.

Abernathy III was among a host of famous Blacks that toured Cleveland during the weeks leading up to the Nov 6, 2012 presidential election to rally voters for the Obama campaign in the still pivotal state of Ohio, Cleveland a Democratic stronghold and the largest city in the delegate rich 11th congressional district, also heavily Democratic.

He spoke at a rally at Mount Olive Missionary Baptist Church after appearing as a guest on ‘The Art McKoy University Show, ’ which airs weekly from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm on W.E.R.E. AM radio.

Other prominent Blacks in Cleveland in support of Obama's 2012 reelection bid were John Legend, who is native of Springfield Ohio, Stevie Wonder, Yolanda Adams, Congressional Black Caucus members, California Attorney General Kamala Harris, who later became a U.S. senator and is now the vice president-elect , actress Vivica Fox, and Valerie Jarrett, one of three senior advisers to Obama when he was president

The first Black president of the United States of America and the country's most popular Black Democrat, Obama completed his second term in the White House in 2016 and was succeeded by outgoing president Donald Trump, a Republican real estate mogul elected president in 2016 who lost the 2020 presidential election to President-elect Joe Biden, the Democratic nominee who served as vice president under Obama.

Abernathy Sr died in 1990.

His son, Abernathy III, died in 2016, just two days shy of his 57th birthday.

The younger Abernathy believed that too often Blacks forget what other Blacks fought for, and died for, including the right to vote.

“Some people have forgotten what we have fought for all these years.” said Abernathy III.

Jailed at a protest in Montgomery at nine-years- old, Abernathy III was a fighter like his father.

His older brother was named after his father too, but died three days after birth.

The fourth of five children, including his deceased brother, the articulate Abernathy lll told Cleveland Urban News.Com that the reason he called King "Uncle Martin" is because the Abernathy and King families were just that close, and that his father and King were, “Civil Rights twins."

He was also nine years old when King was assassinated in 1968 on a hotel balcony in Tennessee, and when his father later assumed the leadership role of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, the Civil Rights organization that they founded together that was the thrust of the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s.

He said that he often had trouble sleeping as a kid because their home in Montgomery had been bombed and he feared it would happen again.

"For years, I was afraid to go to sleep at night when I was a child because I feared that our house would get bombed," said Abernathy III.

The former Georgia state lawmaker said that while Black people have not been fully compensated for the unconstitutional and statutory wrongs that they have endured as a once enslaved people, times have changed somewhat for the Black community.

Barack Obama, he said, is a part of that systemic change in action and is a change agent for the betterment of Black people in particular, and the American people in general.

“In as much as things seem to change, they still remain the same. There is a transitional period of the Black community and a lack of true economic power," said Abernathy III

Brown, Barnes Jr, and Turner, a co-chair of Bernie Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign and a Sanders surrogate, are Democrats, and Jones Gore is a Republican.

Brown is also chair of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party, the first woman to hold the post.

Organizers said they welcome and array of participants because women are the strongest voting bloc in the country.

"We welcome women and their supporters to the 5th annual Women's March Cleveland rally and march as this is a new era for women as we continue the fight against violence against women and for women's rights and civil and human rights, particularly for Black women of Cleveland, women of color, single mothers, and poor women," said Women's March Cleveland head organizer Kathy Wray Coleman, a Black Cleveland activist and community organizer. "We do not intend to be subordinated relative to public policy measures that discriminate against women and this upcoming anniversary march is a coming together of women of greater Cleveland across racial, ethic, partisan, religious and socioeconomic lines during a pandemic and during a time of unprecedented political, racial and economic strife in this country."

CLEVELANDURBANNEWS.COM-Washington, D.C.- Led by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, members of the U.S. House of Representatives voted 232-197 on Wednesday to impeach President Donald Trump on a single article of impeachment, the second time that House Democrats have impeached the president, a Republican real estate mogul and former television personality who upset Democrat Hillary Clinton to win the White House in 2016.

Only 10 Republican House members voted for impeachment.

All four of the Democratic congresspersons from Ohio, Joyce Beatty of Columbus, Tim Ryan out of the Youngstown area, Marcy Kaptur, whose ninth congressional district extends to Cleveland, and 11th Congressional District Congresswoman Marcia L. Fudge, a Warrensville Heights Democrat, voted to impeach.

A nominee for Housing and Urban Development secretary with Joe Biden's incoming Cabinet, Fudge's largely Black congressional district includes most of the city of Cleveland and several of its eastern suburbs of Cuyahoga County

"The president attempted to overturn the results of a free and fair election and incited violence against his own government, " said Congresswoman Fudge. "Upholding my oath to support and defend the constitution, I just voted to impeach the president."

Kaptur called the impeachment at issue unprecedented.

“The decision to impeach a president is a grave one – it is a vote that no member wishes to cast in their lifetime,” said Rep. Kaptur, the longest serving woman in the House of Representatives. “In my nearly four decades of service in the House of Representatives, I have voted to impeach a president only twice – both times during President Trump’s term in office. The criminal invasion of the U.S. Capitol last week created this unprecedented moment in U.S. history when liberty lovers must respond in the strongest legal manner.”

Banned by Twitter and Facebook for allegedly citing violence, the president was unable to vent his frustrations on those top social media platforms but did release a video.

"I want to thank the hundreds of millions of credible American citizens who have responded to this moment with calm, moderation and grace," said Trump.

He went on to say that "we will get through this challenge like we always do."

His first impeachment by the House that occurred roughly a year ago and that each and every Congressional Democrat supported, did not end in a conviction in the Senate, the final step toward a president's removal from office following impeachment in the House.

An effort by Congressional Democrats to convince Vice President Mike Pence prior to impeachment to push for removal of the president from office under the 25th Amendment, which would have required a majority vote from the president's Cabinet to materialize, failed.

Trump, 74, is charged via the article of impeachment with "incitement of resurrection," after allegedly inciting a riot at the U.S. Capitol last Wednesday that left four protesters and a Capitol police officer dead, and that temporarily halted efforts by Congress to officially certify President-elect Joe Biden's electoral college win.

Protesters, whom Trump egged on during a fiery speech before Wednesday's deadly siege on the Capitol, say the presidential election, in which Biden won both the electoral college and popular vote over Trump, was tainted, and stolen from President Trunp.

The impeachment measure now heads to the U.S. Senate for further assessment.

There, and after a hearing, two-thirds of the Senate must vote to convict the president in order to remove him from office.

Time is of essence, and will likely become a problem for Democrats anxious to oust the president from the White House.

He has only seven more days in office and a Senate trial will likely not come before Trump leaves office, House Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky has said, making it clear that a prompt conclusion is out of reach for Democrats.

Currently the Senate is in recess and McConnell has said he will not call the Senate back in session simply for an impeachment trial.

Democrats say that even if Trump leaves office, a subsequent conviction by the Senate could keep him from ever holding federal office again.

A few Congressional Republicans, and some legal scholars, argue that once the president has left office a Senate conviction thereafter is unenforceable.

Democrats, and some Congressional Republicans who supported impeachment, say the president, through his actions, has betrayed the country, and that accountability is at the central core of impeachment.

Rep. Liz Chaney, a conservative Republican representing Wyoming who supported impeachment, spoke on the House floor before the impeachment vote was taken and said President Trump "summoned the mob, assembled the mob, and lit the flame of this attack."

Whether Trump will be found guilty in the Senate of inciting insurrection and barred from ever holding federal office again remains to be seen as the Supreme Court in precedent setting cases has set a high bar in proving that a person incited a riot.

All that was needed for impeachment was a yes vote from a simple majority of the 435 voting members of the House.

Biden is set to be sworn in as president on Jan 20.

As a Democratic president, he will serve with a Black female vice president in Kamala Harris, who will also be sworn in on Jan 20., and he will enjoy a Democratic majority in both the House and the Senate after Democrats won a majority in the House two years ago and in the Senate last week when two incumbent senators from Georgia lost their seats to Democrats.

U.S. House members slated to vote Wednesday on whether to impeach President Trump....By Clevelandurbannews.com and Kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com, Ohio's Black digital news leaders

13 January 2021

CLEVELANDURBANNEWS.COM-Washington, D.C.-Members of the U.S. House of Representatives are slated to vote on Wednesday on a single article of impeachment leveled against embattled outgoing President Donald Trump after drafting the text of the impeachment article on Tuesday, the second time that House Democrats have pursued impeachment proceedings against the president, a Republican real estate mogul and former television personality who upset Democrat Hillary Clinton to win the White House in 2016.

An effort by Congressional Democrats to convince Vice President Mike Pence to push for removal of the president from office under the 25th Amendment, which would require a majority vote from the president's Cabinet to materialize, failed.

Trump, 74, is charged via the article of impeachment with "incitement of resurrection," after allegedly inciting a riot at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday that left four protesters and a Capitol police officer dead, and that temporarily halted efforts by Congress to officially certify Biden's electoral college win.

Protesters, whom Trump egged on during a fiery speech before Wednesday's deadly siege on the Capitol, say the presidential election, in which President-, and stolen from President Trump.

Days after Wedenesday's attempted coup on Congress by angry Trump supporters the president was banned from posting on Twitter, Facebook and various other social media platforms, also for allegedly inciting violence.

The president's Twitter account, before it was permanently deleted on Friday, had approximately 79.5 million followers, though former president Barack Obama has the most followers at over 127 million, followed by Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Cristiano Ronaldo, Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga respectively.

If Trump is impeached in the House as predicted the measure then heads to the U.S. Senate.

There, and after a hearing, two-thirds of the Senate must vote to convict the president in order to remove him from office.

Time is of essence, pundits say, and will likely become a problem for Democrats anxious to sanction the president, who has only eight more days in office.

As to potential impeachment of the president by the House, Speaker Pelosi, a San Francisco Democrat, says has the necessary House votes to get the president impeached.

All that is needed for impeachment is a yes vote from a simple majority of the 435 voting members of the House.

Biden is set to be sworn in as president on Jan 20.

If President Trump is impeached it will be the second time he has been impeached since taking office nearly four years ago.

His first impeachment by the House, also led by Speaker Pelosi, did not end in a conviction in the Senate, the final step toward a president's removal from office following impeachment by the House.
