Money is on the way to YOU!

-

The coronavirus recovery money from the federal government is starting to show up in bank accounts.




If you file taxes with the IRS and they have your banking information on file you should start seeing that money show up in your bank account this week.

It’s $1,200 per adult, with an additional $500 per child if the child is younger than 17.

If you owe child support, that could affect the amount of money you receive.

If you don’t receive money in your bank account within the next few days go to IRS.gov and click “Get my payment.”

  Believe it or not, the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office is considering filing criminal charges against the teen-age black girl shown in a viral video being body slammed by a deputy last Tuesday (Jan. 26). During a news conference on Saturday (Jan. 30) civil rights attorneys Ben Crump and Natalie Jackson revealed that sheriff’s office detectives called Taylor Bracey’s home and asked her parents to let them interview her as they considered filing assault and resisting arrest charges against the girl. This tactic is intended to take legal heat off the deputy who hurt Taylor. Ms. Jackson said they advised their client to exercise her 5 th Amendment right not to answer questions because the responses could be used against her in a criminal court. Crump, who is known for representing black people and families who have been victimized by racism and police violence, said the deputy should be facing criminal charges for brutally assaulting 16-year-old Taylor. Taylor was knocked unco...

  Orlando responded to requests to study pollution and the health of residents in Parramore and other historically black neighborhoods by dragging its feet for years.

We had to act.” The grant work begins this Thursday (Dec. 3) 6:30 p.m. when the Coalition of 100 Black Women holds an online community forum to begin the fact-finding process. Residents are encouraged to attend this forum by clicking: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEqceippjIiGtHDymQPlxPKN5asozf1qXCV (After you click, check your email for access to the meeting.)

    Do you know anyone who ever wanted to be a scientist? Now they have a chance to make that dream reality right here in Orlando. The Coalition of 100 Black Women – Central Florida is looking for “citizen scientist” candidates to work under the $120,000 federal grant the organization received recently from the federal Environmental Protection Agency to study air pollution in the Parramore, Holden Heights and Mercy Drive communities.  (For more information on this grant, and the project, click here.) That’s right…WORK! The people selected as citizen scientists will be paid a stipend. To be a citizen scientist you don’t need a fancy degree. “We’re looking for people who are reliable, motivated and intellectually curious,” said Project Manager Lawanna Gelzer. This could be a great opportunity for a student, a retired person, an activist, or anyone who wants to work on a project that can help protect the health of thousands of people who live in and near downtown Orlando.
