Rev. B E . Johnson of Cor­
nerstone Community Church of
God inChrist firs, suggested the
name change to his northeast
Port land congregation during an
appearance by Salt/man who
then began to champion the
cause.
Other ideas to honor Parks
ranged from renaming Sandy
Boulevard, the bus mallon South­
west Sixth Avenue or a MAX
line. In the end, Saltzman said
the symbolism of an intersec­
tion with Rosa Parks Way and
Ml.K was an impetus to choos­
ing Portland Boulevard.
If you look closely, the thor­
oughfare will also make other
notable connections.
Rosa Parks Way will pass
Holy R edeem er C atholic
Church and school, a turn of the
century building with a signifi­
cant African American congre­
gation and student body. It will
also cross Mississippi, Missouri
and Congress Avenues, and will
even add a positive note to
Haight Avenue.
"T he street sta rts at
Willamette, which is the heart
of Portland," said Pastor W.G.
Hardy, of Highland United
Church of Christ.
The city will rebuild a bench
facing Albina Avenue in front
o f the Peninsula Park Rose
Garden, adding a plaque in her
honor.
Hardy said they also have
begun talks about a statue.
“We learned a lot since re­
naming Union Avenue to MLK
Jr. Blvd.," he said. "It seems
like the city and its businesses
are ready to honor those who
have paid a significant price in
our communities."

Dear Deanna!
My husband of three years has
tried to keep me from achieving
my dreams and goals. We dated
for many years prior to mar­
riage so my desires are no sur­
prise. He has sabotaged my work
by deleting files from my com­
puter, erasing voice mail mes­
sages and losing important mail.
I am going to be successful and
want my husband to be a part of
my success. We are both work­
ing dead end jobs but my suc­
cess would free both of us. How
do I fix this situation? -Shat­
tered Dreams;

Dear Shattered:
....
Your husband is jealous and
doesn't want to see you suc­
ceed. He can see the big picture
of your success and it is making
him feel insecure because he
will no longer be the big guy.
You should involve your hus­
band as much as you can and
invite him to help you. This will
allow him to be a part of the
success and also have a feeling
of achievement. Working as a
team will help you reach your
goals faster, leave your dead

Dear Deanna!
I think it'sdisrespectful how my
brother’s wife pretends to be so
helpless with the men in the
family. My brother is a trucker
and he’s on the road most of the
time working. She purposely
calls the other husbands seek­
ing help with her plumbing, car
problems and calls to ask stupid
questions. The women in the
family see through her and think
she’s a big flirt. How do we
address the problem without
being viewed as “haters” or
accused of jealousy? —Tina;

Dear Tina:
This can be handled through
dialogue and communication.
Address the issue with your
brother first and share your plans
with him. Then address the con­
cerns with your sister-in-law as
a group. Provide solutions by
gi vi ng her a directory of names,
phone numbers and addresses
for every problem she could
possibly encounter. Lastly, each
of you need to also talk to your
spouse as well and issue bound­
aries in relations to them jum p­
ing to her every call.
