N a t i o n w i d e(BlackNews.com) -- Betweenacting, heading a productioncompany, and changing her 4-month old's diapers, Krystal M.Harris has added a new talentto her career other than writingfilm scripts... writingcomics/graphic novels.

Harris, who will next be seen

opposite Algee Smith in thehighly anticipated, "New Edi-tion Story" biopic on BET, hasbeen tapped to pen the femaleaction/drama graphic novel,

The Venomous Five. Set inthe 19th century, The Ven-omous Five is a story of fiveformer slave girls who surpassadversity to become the prideof Japan and the world�sfiercest martial arts warriorheroines.

The new graphic novel willbring on several black femaleillustrators in addition to Harrispenning the graphic novel, andwill feature illustrations lead byartist/illustrator and motherJulie Anderson. Women ofcolor rarely get opportunities tochampion this type of genre.

The next wave of �Black GirlMagic� is not just showing howspectacular women are, it�snormalizing it.

"When I heard the concept Iwas immediately excited, usingour rich history as black peopleand turning the pain we en-

dured as slaves into a drivingforce to rise up in power wassomething that really got mywheels turning. Plus, black fe-male martial arts and fantasylore... what could get betterthan that?" said Harris

Michael Daniels, creator ofThe Venomous Five, soughtout Harris because he hadread her work and knew shewould be the perfect person tobring this story to life. He wasalso adamant that telling thisparticular story of women's em-powerment would be impossi-ble without bringing in strongfemale voices. According toDaniels, "The traditional way ofmen telling women's storiesare over. I'm glad The Ven-omous Five can be a part ofthe new wave of conscious-ness in story-telling."

National Day of Racial Healing

Initiated by the W.K. KelloggFoundation’s Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation Enterprise, a National Day ofRacial Healing on January 17 WillHelp Americans Heal and Overcome Deep Racial DivisionsBY GAIL CHRISTOPHER

WASHINGTON, DC — Just five days before inau-guration of Donald Trump as the country’s 45th Pres-ident, millions of Americans on January 15 willcelebrate the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.For many, memories of the civil rights icon revolvearound his momentous “I Have a Dream” speechfrom the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, calling for anend to racism and to the expansion of economic op-portunities.

Dr. King’s brilliance – strategic leadership of theCivil Rights Movement to unparalleled courage andintegrity – is often over shadowed by the speech thatscholars hailed as the 20th century’s top public ad-dress in the U.S. Unfortunately, Dr. King’s dream ofequality articulated in 1963 remains unfulfilled inmany communities today – a reality affirming the con-tinued structural inequities and bias spurring wide-spread disparities in social conditions andopportunities for people of color.

Think about Dr. King’s powerful vision. “I have adream that my four little children will one day live ina nation where they will not be judged by the color oftheir skin, but by the content of their character.”That’s the America many of us strive to create, butclearly, despite progress in some areas, we are stillseeking to realize.

Furthermore, the vitriolic, divisive rhetoric and rawemotions raging throughout the past year pulled thescab off a persistent wound in the American psyche,bringing the issue of race front and center and ex-posing the divides in our society. What does the na-tion do about it? How do we move forward on a pathtoward racial equity that facilitates racial healing, dis-mantles structural racism and lifts vulnerable childrenon a path to success?

To-be-sure, America has made progress over the

decades. Government and the courts enactedstatutes and rulings ranging from Brown v. Board ofEducation to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to the FairHousing Act of 1968 that outlawed public discrimina-tion, while purportedly providing equal opportunities.Yet, these actions only addressed the effects ofracism, not its core foundation. Time has demon-strated that government and courts can enact anduphold laws, but they don’t change hearts, minds andsouls or address the root cause of racism.

Racism is rooted in the false belief in a human hi-erarchy, an antiquated taxonomy of the human fam-ily, which has fueled structural racism and consciousand unconscious bias throughout U.S. culture with aperception of inferiority or superiority based on race,physical characteristics or place of origin. Whites areplaced at the top and all other racial groups in de-scending order. This absurd notion, which sciencehas soundly discredited, was used to justify coloniza-tion and enslavement for centuries. And the false ide-ology fuels white supremacist movements and otherovert expressions of racial and ethnic hatred and big-otry.

The United States has witnessed how the beliefmanifests in many ways. From coast to coast, com-munities experience disparities for people of color inhealth, education, employment and housing.

Furthermore, high profile police shootings involvingpeople of color has fueled the perception that thecriminal justice system is unfair and bias. In fact, astudy by University of California, Davis anthropologistCody Ross found “evidence of a significant bias inthe killing of unarmed black Americans relative to un-armed white Americans, in that the probability ofbeing black, unarmed, and shot by police is about3.49 times the probability of being white, unarmed,and shot by police on average.”

It appears Dylann Roof, the convicted murderer ofnine worshippers at the Emanuel African MethodistEpiscopal Church in Charleston, SC, was motivatedby a belief that he was somehow superior to blacksand others. Friends said Roof complained that“blacks were taking over the world” and he vowed tostart a race war

Dr. King understood that the belief in racial hierar-chy created barriers to our country’s capacity to fulfillthe promise of our democratic ideals. It is time for us

to fully eliminate this hierarchy of human value and jettison the anti-quated concept. Only then can all of our children be embraced not be-cause of the color of their skin or other physical characteristics, but bytheir innate essence, their humanity.

Our country needs racial healing and a sustained effort to avert theracism that influences public and private systems, practices and poli-cies. The racial healing can move us toward one another in a spirit ofwholeness and love. A transformative, positive change can come fromthis shift in our individual and collective consciousness and the resultingactions we take on behalf of ourselves, our children and future gener-ations of our human family.

After decades of funding diverse communities to help improve thelives of vulnerable children, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation (WKKF) lead-ership recognizes the need for racial healing and eliminating racism,and replacing it with the affirmation of our equal and shared humanity.The hierarchy of human value is deeply embedded consciously, sys-tematically, structurally and unconsciously by the people and systemsadhering to it.

Removing it from our society will require a concerted effort over time.The Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation (TRHT) enterprise cre-ated by WKKF and a broad coalition of organizations from all sectorsof society is working to end the belief and facilitate racial healing. TRHTis a community-driven vehicle for transformative change. The TRHT ap-proach examines how the belief system became embedded in our so-ciety, both its culture, and structures, and then works with communitiesto design and implement effective actions that will permanently uprootit. We are marshaling individual, local, public and private resources todismantle systemic, structurally-based patterns of discrimination at themunicipal, county, state, Tribal and federal levels.

At a recent summit, 570 people representing the 130 TRHT partnerorganizations issued a call to action to designate January 17, 2017 asthe inaugural National Day of Racial Healing in America.

Communities, organizations and individuals will acknowledge thatdeep, racial divides still exist and must be overcome and healed. Theywill commit to engaging representatives from all racial, ethnic, religious,gender, and identity groups in genuine efforts to increase understand-ing, improve communications, caring and respect for one another andthe perceived other.

These actions will help create a new narrative that refutes the beliefin a hierarchy of human value and replaces it with the scientificallyproven assertion that we’re all descendants of one human ancestry andguided by an inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happi-ness.

Our country’s make-up has changed significantly since its founding,and the demographic changes are continual. Immigration and birthrates, among other contributing factors, are altering the face of commu-nities. Already, children of color represent the majority of children in thecountry, and far too many are in poverty.

For these new challenges, America needs a new reality, grounded inracial healing so that the work of ending racial disparities can boldlymove forward and all children have opportunities to succeed. It is timeto focus our energy, resources and discourse on eliminating the falseideology of a hierarchy of human value so we can cultivate and growwhat must be valued most: our common humanity.
