SOUND OF SILENCE: Shining The Light on an American Police Family

FEATURED IN THE NATIONAL MEDIA|

One Cop’s Daughter on a Search for Justice

AN EMERGING BLOCKBUSTER-A STORY THAT MUST BE TOLD

“He was a Police Officer who was shot in-the-line-of-duty in 1972. He survived his injuries and subsequent surgeries, which were unfortunately a regular part of his and my Family’s lives, but he was never the same man, Husband, or Father again, yet we could never understand why, not to minimize the pain of being shot by a career criminal who tried to kill him, but it was more than that, and I knew so at the tender age of 9. I just didn’t have the ability to ask him the questions which would have yielded the answers, and when I became old enough to do so, it felt like he had buried what was ailing him, so I was too reluctant to unbury it, and yet I did just that in 2016. His perpetrator eluded authorities for 44 years until I found him all by myself. What I have learned is extremely difficult and incredibly sad. My Dad passed an untimely death in 2013, likely related back to his original injury, and so I had to find all of the answers. I’m fairly certain I have accomplished that feat, though some things are never meant to be unearthed. The sequence of events is so unbelievable you’d think you were watching a Movie because it couldn’t have possibly happened to our Family, and yet it did–my Dad forced into a lifetime of silence in exchange for his continued service and ability to support our Family. A coverup in which he did not participate at the scene of his shooting. I’m writing an Inspirational Nonfiction with True Crime elements, though it’s a difficult one to write about. I am in so much disbelief over the secrets he was forced to keep and which he took with him to his death. Tragic. So, I honor him and his memory and love of protecting the innocent, the weak, and the good people of our city of Columbus, Ohio, much to the chagrin of even our current Police Department.”

Maybe you, too, were impacted on some deep level you can say you carry with you some 5 decades later. If you can say so, you were and are as Blessed as I have been in being a child of 7 and 8 years old when I was introduced to Walt Whitman High School and my favorite fictional teachers like Lloyd Haynes, or who I like to call MY “Mr. Dixon.”

Growing up in the Midwest in the late 1960s and early 1970s, I fell in love with the whole idea of seeing people without seeing color. Diversity was prevalent in our city of Columbus, Ohio, but not as much in the outlying suburbs of our city, where my Family and I lived, and where I went to Elementary School, with a dream of attending my eventual home of my suburban High School which would look like the fictional Walt Whitman High School in its diversity, and where new generations of culture and ethnicity would be prominent; where my leaders, mentors, and teachers would look like MY “Mr. Dixon;” where I’d receive an education which would encompass and encourage multicultural studies. But those things would only become a part of my creative imagination. It is why, therefore, ROOM 222 and MY “Mr. Dixon” would have a lifetime and profound influence in and on my life’s passions and work, and why Lloyd Haynes is a human being I revered as one of my beloved Heroes I’ll never forget.

Through Lloyd’s beautiful wife Carolyn, I have been Blessed to recall and be reminded of my most cherished memories of both her work and that of Lloyd’s, and to go back to a place in time where my dreams were just beginning, and my hopes never an impossible nor improbable reality or possibility. For these deeply-rooted longings and life’s purpose and desire, I will always hold Lloyd and Carolyn Haynes in the highest esteem, and they’ll always be connected to me as part of the person in me their work helped to shape and mold, and that, my friends, is what life and the arts and the power of the medium of film and television are all about. I am forever grateful to Lloyd and Carolyn for their monumental positive impact on the hearts and minds, dreams and goals of people who were once children like I was, with aspirations to be just like they were–individuals who played a significant role in society for the betterment of humankind. And if you, too, were impacted by two people who forever changed the trajectory of your life like Lloyd and Carolyn Haynes did mine, then you, too, are as Blessed as I was then and now.

Mr. Dixon, until I see you in my beloved ROOM 222 again, don’t forget to leave the light on for me.

“You are never too old to reinvent yourself.”

-Steve Harvey

Lloyd Haynes was firmly established in a promising career when he changed directions that led him to Hollywood. 

“Then my agent told me about the casting for the part of Pete Dixon in Room 222, and I decided to make a bid for it. When asked why he thought they chose him, he answered, I went back four times, and they didn’t seem much interested and told me why. They thought I looked too old. But they kept letting me read, and after the third reading, they decided to test me. I guess my test came out best. They also liked my performance on the premiere of Julia I played the part of the TV repairman.”

“I’m making drunk-turkey. Trust me you’ll love it!”
The day before Thanksgiving, Lloyd marinated a turkey in white wine, lemon, lemon zest, and spices overnight. Thanksgiving morning, he reached into the large covered black pot and removed the drenched gobbler from its wine-bath and placed it in the roasting pan. Sprinkling more spices on and in the turkey covered it with foil, and cooked, at 400 degrees, for several hours; the consistent temperature of most meals prepared by Lloyd.
Our family and friends arrived to the warm glorious aroma of a lovingly prepared Thanksgiving feast. Resting on a wooden board in the kitchen was the tender, succulent turkey, meat slipping off the bone. Not the picture-perfect golden-brown turkey, but unanimously the most tender, best-tasting turkey any of us ever had. Excerpt from The Lloyd Haynes Story. http://www.amazon.com/dp/1548760420

The name “Halloween” comes from the All Saints Day celebration of the early Christian church, a day set aside for the solemn remembrance of the martyrs. All Hallows Eve, the evening before All Saints Day, began the time of remembrance. “All Hallows Eve” was eventually contracted to “Hallow-e’en,” which became “Halloween.”

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, DEAR LLOYD HAYNES 10/19/34 – 12/31/86

One autumn evening, surrounded by a breathtaking view of the city lights, I met an extraordinary soul that, until then, I had only read about from the writings of great poets. A captivating moment in time that stands apart from all the others in my life and, much to my amazement, changed my perception of handsome to those of William Shakespeare: “Care I for the limb, the thews, the stature, bulk, and big assemblance of a man! Give me the spirit.” No one would argue that Samuel Lloyd Haynes was an impressive assemblance of a man, but if you happened to catch a glimpse of his soul—well, it was astounding!

Diahann Carroll born Carol Diahann Johnson; July 17, 1935 – October 4, 2019) was an American actress, singer and model. She rose to stardom in performances in some of the earliest major studio films to feature black casts, including Carmen Jones in 1954 and Porgy and Bess in 1959. In 1962, Carroll won a Tony Award for best actress, a first for a black woman, for her role in the Broadway musical No Strings.

Her 1968 debut in Julia, the first series on American television to star a black woman in a nonstereotypical role, was a milestone both in her career and the medium. In the 1980s she played the role of a mixed-race diva in the primetime soap opera Dynasty.

Carroll was the recipient of numerous stage and screen nominations and awards, including the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress In A Television Series in 1968. She received an Academy Award for Best Actress nomination for the 1974 film Claudine. She was also a breast cancer survivor and activist.

I have never thought of myself as a good #writer. Anyone who wants reassurance of that should read one of my first drafts. But I’m one of the world’s great rewriters. 😀💞

A favorite picture that hung on Lloyd’s wall for years and still hangs on our family wall today says volumes about the heart of Ali. It is a posed photo of Lloyd and Ali taken just for fun. Lloyd mentioned several times over the years that Ali was a most compassionate and generous soul, which made him a champion long before the world knew of him. Excerpt from The Lloyd Haynes Story 🥰

“The last remnants of dry autumn leaves fell all around me from the huge old trees like soft rain. It was magical as they brushed against my face. Leaves covered the entire front yard that day, spilling out into the street. I stood motionless, captured by the site of all the beautiful shades of yellow, orange, red, and green. Everything looked new and clean, and I was mesmerized by the site. I took another step-down, then catapulted off into the middle of a wind drift pile of leaves. It was heaven as I sunk beneath the crunching rainbow.” Lloyd Haynes (age 6) Excerpt from The Lloyd Haynes Story 😃💕
