Million Mom March seeks marchers, donors
Special to The Recorder
Thousands of mothers across the nation plan to spend their Mother’s Day raising awareness about sensible gun laws and the need to protect children by participating in the Million Mom March. Organizers of the Indianapolis Million Mom March invite interested mothers and others to join them on Sunday, May 14, to show support for the following initiatives: • Sensible “cooling off’ periods and background checks. • Licensing handgun owners and registering all handguns. • Safety locks for all handguns. • Limit purchases to one handgun per month. • No-nonsense enforcement of current gun laws. The Indianapolis event begins at 3 p.m. at the south parking lot of Market Square Arena and concludes at Military Park on West Street. The route takes marchers through downtown and past the Indiana Statehouse. A concluding rally at Military Park will include civic leaders and other mothers offering support for these initiatives. Those unable to participate in the march are welcome to meet at Military Park. “This event is for mothers, mothers-to-be, grandmothers.
African-American women have special skin needs at a spa
By CHERYL ANN WADLINGTON (NNPA) — For most sisters, especially those of us who lead fast-paced lives, a trip to a day spa is the ultimate, opportune time to relax, unwind and leave every worry behind. But spa bound AfricanAmerican women should take into account whether or not an establishment pays attention to the basic skin care and pampering nuances that are associated with women of color, according to Dr. Lorenzo Alston, a chiropractic physician and executive director of Reset Wellness Spa in Philadelphia. “Women of color have never been comfortable with going to a facility to get pampering services, because the services are being done by people who don’t look like them, and who for the most part don’t know how to recognize some of the special skin care needs that women of color have, like hyperpigmentation,” said Alston. “Our on-staff
dermatologist specializes in those areas and is trained to recognize those differences.” In addition. Dr. Alston says that because of the way we’re shaped, our bodies require special attention when massages are being performed, because cellulite has a genetic makeup, which means if your muscularity is different than other body types (like a higher or rounder buttocks), the distribution of cellulite is going to be different, and requires specific focus. So if you're thinking about taking a spa trip, select one that caters to your distinct pampering

fathers and anyone who cares about the safety of children in our society,” said Michelle Wonderlin, one of a group of mothers planning the local event. “This March represents people from all walks of life who just want common sense to prevail in the debate over guns. We hope that people in Indiana spend just a short part of their Mother’s Day walking to promote sensible gun laws and safe children.” Local organizers also hope that companies and individuals will be generous in their support of the Indianapolis event. With not much time left until Mother's Day, “we still need concerned citizens in Indiana to help us pull off the Indianapolis march,” said Wonderlin. “Although this is a very lowbudget, grass-roots effort, there are some unavoidable costs such as a public address system, portable toilets and insurance,"
she said.
Individuals who wish to support the march with a monetary donation may send a checks to: Citizens Concerned About Gun Violence; 5129 N. Illinois St.; Indianapolis, IN 46208. Write “Million Mom March” in the memo line of the check. Questions about the Indianapolis Million Mom March can be directed to Wonderlin at [email protected] or to Citizens Concerned about Gun Violence at (317) 253-7973.
