>> THERE IS CERTAINLY NO
SHORTAGE OF SAD NEWS IN THIS
WORLD.
SO IT'S NICE TO FIND A STORY
ONCE IN A WHILE THAT IS
WHOLEHEARTEDLY GOOD NEWS.
THIS IS ONE OF THEM.
IT INVOLVES A BOY THAT WAS
LIVING IN A BAGHDAD ORPHANAGE
WHEN HE MET A WISCONSIN SOLDIER.
THAT MEETING TRANSFORMED BOTH
OF THEIR LIVES.
AS FREDERICA FREYBERG REPORTS,
MAJOR SCOTT SOUTHWORTH IS AN
IRAQ WAR VETERAN, JUNEAU COUNTY
DISTRICT ATTORNEY AND NOW, MOST
IMPORTANTLY, DAD TO ONE VERY
SPECIAL BOY.
>> ARE YOU A HAPPY BOY?
>> YEAH.
>> THE SHINE IN HIS EYES AND
THE SMILE ON HIS FACE SAY IT
ALL.
THE BRIGHT AND HAPPY
13-YEAR-OLD ALA'A IS A SPECIAL
NEEDS CHILD BECAUSE CEREBRAL
PALSY EFFECTS HIM PHYSICALLY.
THIS DISABILITY IS APPARENTLY
WHY HIS FAMILY IN IRAQ TURNED
HIM OUT LEAVING HIM ALONE AND
ORPHANED WHEN IT BECAME CLEAR
HE COULD NOT WALK AS A TODDLER.
NOW IN HIS NEW HOME IN
WISCONSIN HE'S PART OF A FAMILY.
AN IMMEDIATE FAMILY OF TWO.
ALA'A AND HIS ADOPTIVE DAD
SCOTT SOUTHWORTH.
THEY MAKE THEIR HOME IN JUNEAU
COUNTY WHERE SOUTHWORTH IS A
SINGLE DAD AND ALSO DISTRICT
ATTORNEY.
COMMITTED TO PUBLIC SERVICE IN
A WAY FAR BEYOND HOW MOST
ANSWER THE CALL TO SERVE.
MAJOR SOUTHWORTH WAS COMMANDER
OF A WISCONSIN NATIONAL GUARD
MILITARY POLICE COMPANY DURING
HIS IRAQ TOUR STARTING IN 2003.
THE SOFTER SIDE OF SOUTHWORTH'S
WORK IN IRAQ TOOK HIM AND
SEVERAL SOLDIERS TO THE MOTHER
TERESA ORPHANAGE FOR DISABLED
CHILDREN IN BAGHDAD.
>> OUR GOAL WAS REALLY TO
VOLUNTEER WITH THE KIDS TO SHOW
THE IRAQI PEOPLE THAT WE REALLY
DID LOVE AND CARE FOR THEM
BECAUSE OUR MISSION AT THE TIME
WAS TO PROFESSIONALIZE THE
IRAQI POLICE SERVICE IN
NORTHEAST BAGHDAD AND WE
UNDERSTOOD THAT THAT MISSION
WAS IN EFFECT TO CHANGE HEARTS
AND MINDS.
>> AS IT HAPPENED, THOSE VISITS
ALSO CHANGED THE HEARTS AND
MINDS OF THE SOLDIERS, ONE OF
THEM IN PARTICULAR.
THE COMMANDER WHO ARRANGED THE
VOLUNTEERING.
>> THE VERY FIRST DAY I WAS IN
THE ORPHANAGE ALA'A PULLED
HIMSELF ACROSS A MAT ON THE
FLOOR FROM ONE SIDE OF THE ROOM
TO ANOTHER SO HE COULD SIT
RIGHT NEXT TO ME.
>> I DID THAT BECAUSE I WANTED
TO BE BY HIM.
>> WAS IT PRETTY MUCH RIGHT
THERE THAT HE HAD YOU?
>> YEAH.
>> THE RELATIONSHIP BLOSSOMED.
SOUTHWORTH SAYS HE THOUGHT OF
THE SKINNY LITTLE BOY AS HIS
LITTLE BROTHER.
THE BOY HAD MORE IN HIS HEART.
>> DID YOU START CALLING HIM
SOMETHING?
>> IN ARABIC WE CALL HIM BABA,
WHICH IS DADDY IN ARABIC.
>> BUT IS SISTERS AT THE
ORPHANAGE TOLD SOUTHWORTH ALA'A
WOULD SOON MOVE TO A GOVERNMENT
RUN HOME FOR DISABLED ADULTS.
>> I NEW HIS BEST CASE SCENARIO
WAS STARING AT A BLANK WALL THE
REST OF HIS LIFE AND WORST CASE
SCENARIO THAT HE DIDN'T SURVIVE.
>> HE REALIZED THE BOY'S FUTURE
WAS IN HIS HAND AND DECIDED TO
ADOPT THE CHILD WHEN HE
RETURNED HOME FROM IRAQ.
>> THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE
THAT I, YOU KNOW, FRIENDS AND
FAMILY THAT THOUGHT I WAS
SUFFERING FROM COMBAT STRESS.
>> INSTEAD, ONCE BACK HOME
SOUTHWORTH SAYS THAT EVEN
THOUGH HE WAS SINGLE, ABOUT TO
LAUNCH A CAMPAIGN FOR DISTRICT
ATTORNEY AND DID NOT YET OWN A
HOUSE TO LIVE IN, HE KNEW IT
WAS MEANT TO BE.
>> IT WAS THE MOST COMPLICATED
AND IMPORTANT MISSION OF MY
LIFE, ABSOLUTELY.
>> CUTTING THROUGH WAR-TIME
PAPERWORK IN A COUNTRY THAT
DON'T ALLOW FOREIGN ADOPTIONS
WAS MONUMENTAL.
ADOPTING THE BOY BEGAN WITH
SPECIAL APPROVAL FROM THE IRAQ
AND U.S. GOVERNMENT.
FINALLY GETTING LITTLE ALA'A
OUT OF BAGHDAD WAS LIKE A
COVERT OPERATION.
>> HE WAS NEVER TOLD WHAT WAS
HAPPENING BECAUSE HAD HE
INFORMED ANYONE ABOUT COMING TO
AMERICA, ABOUT HAVING AN
AMERICAN DADDY, THAT WOULD HAVE
PUT HIM AND THE OTHER CHILDREN
AND THE SISTERS OF THE
ORPHANAGE IN DANGER.
HIS ORPHANAGE WAS STRUCK BY AN
IED BEFORE I COULD GET HIM OUT
OF IRAQ.
HE DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT
GOING TO THE U.S. UNTIL I WAS
STANDING IN FRONT OF HIM AT THE
BAGHDAD INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
WHEN I TOLD HIM YOU'RE COMING
TO AMERICA TO LIVE WITH ME.
>> WE'RE IN BAGHDAD.
WHERE ARE WE GOING TO GO NOW?
>> AMERICA.
>> THAT WAS IN JANUARY OF 2005.
ALA'A WAS 10 YEARS OLD BUT
LOOKED MUCH YOUNGER BECAUSE HE
WAS SO SMALL AND THIN.
TODAY HE'S FILLED OUT AND
STRONG.
EVEN LEARNING TO WALK WITH HIS
VERY OWN GENTLER KIND OF DRILL
SERGEANT BY HIS SIDE ON A
SPECIAL TREADMILL.
>> IT'S REALLY HARD.
>> COME ON, SOLDIER.
>> HE'S FLUENT IN ENGLISH AND
ARABIC AND POPULAR AT SCHOOL.
>> HE'S MADE A TON OF FRIENDS.
I WOULD SAY HE'S GOT MORE
FRIENDS IN THE LAST THREE YEARS
THAN I'VE MADE IN MY 35 ON
EARTH.
HE'S REALLY DOING GREAT.
>> IT'S VERY DIFFERENT COMPARED
TO IRAQ WHERE I USED TO LIVE.
IT'S VERY DIFFERENT HERE.
>> WHENEVER I HEAR SOMEONE SAY
WHAT A GREAT THING YOU'VE DONE
BECAUSE YOU BROUGHT ALA'A INTO
YOUR LIFE I ALWAYS RESPOND
WITH, ANY SACRIFICE THAT I'VE
HAD TO MAKE PALES IN COMPARISON
WITH THE BLESSING THAT I GOT IN
BEING HIS DAD.
>> LOOK AT THAT.
>> ONE OF ALA'A'S MOST PRIZED
POSSESSIONS IS HIS PACKER
JERSEY WITH HIS NAME ON THE
BACK, ALA'AY DEAN.
THAT'S THE NAME HE CHOSE FOR
HIMSELF ONCE TAKEN IN BY THE
NUNS AFTER POLICE PLUCKED HIM
OFF THE STREETS AS A TODDLER.
THE AMERICAN TRANSLATION OF
ALA'A EDDEEN.
ALADDIN.
HE SAYS HE FEELS LIKE A PRINCE
WITH THE AMERICAN OFFICER WHO
HAS BECOME HIS DAD.
>> I HOPE FOR THAT I COULD STAY
HERE AND LIVE WITH HIM FOR THE
REST OF MY LIFE.
>> SCOTT SOUTHWORTH SAYS HIS
HOPES FOR ALA'A INCLUDE GROWING
UP TO HAVE A FAMILY OF HIS OWN
AND THIS NOTE, ALA'A BECAME A
U.S. CITIZEN TWO WEEKS AGO.
>> IF YOU'RE LUCKY YOU'LL MEET
SOMEONE THAT WILL MAKE A
DIFFERENCE IN YOUR LIFE.
OFTENTIMES THAT PERSON IS A
TEACHER.
LAST WEEKEND A WELL-KNOWN
WISCONSIN HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATOR
WHO MADE A DIFFERENCE FOR
THOUSANDS OF YOUNG PEOPLE
PASSED AWAY.
68-YEAR-OLD MILTON MCPIKE WAS
PRINCIPAL AT MADISON EAST HIGH
SCHOOL FROM 1969 UNTIL 2002.
TWO YEARS LATER MCPIKE WAS
APPOINTED AS A MEMBER OF UW
BOARD OF REGENTS.
THROUGHOUT HIS MANY YEARS AS AN
EDUCATOR, MCPIKE DEALT WITH
TOUGH ISSUES SUCH AS RACISM AND
POVERTY.
HE ALSO RECEIVED WIDE
RECOGNITION FOR HIS SUCCESSES.
IN 1990, PRINCIPAL MCPIKE WAS
NAMED A NATIONAL HERO IN
EDUCATION BY READER'S DIGEST.
WISCONSIN PUBLIC TELEVISION
PROUD A PROFILE OF HIM THAT
SAME YEAR AND WE WOULD LIKE TO
SHARE IT WITH YOU NOW.
>> HE PUTS HIMSELF ON THE LINE
EVERY DAY AND WHAT YOU SEE IS
WHAT YOU GET.
>> VERY VISIBLE.
MR. MCPIKE IS OUT THERE ALL THE
TIME.
>> HE'S REAL.
WHO YOU SEE WHEN YOU TALK TO
HIM IS EXACTLY WHO HE IS.
>> I TRULY THINK HE KNOWS EVERY
KID IN THIS SCHOOL.
HE TALKS TO EVERYBODY.
>> HE REMEMBERS WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO BE A TEENAGER.
>> HELLO, EAST HIGH SCHOOL.
>> GOOD MORNING.
HOW ARE YOU DOING?
HEY, LADIES AND YOUNG MEN,
LET'S GO, COME ON.
>> WHY I'M OUT IN THE HALLS IS
I WANT TO KNOW THE PULSE OF
SCHOOL.
I WANT TO KNOW WHETHER THE
CLIMATE IS SAFE.
I WANT TO KNOW WHETHER THE
CLIMATE IS FOR LEARNING.
I WANT TO KNOW WHETHER KIDS ARE
HAPPY BECAUSE MY BELIEF IS THAT
IF THE CLIMATE IS IN PLACE,
THEN LEARNING WILL TAKE PLACE.
>> WHERE ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO
BE, HUH?
WHERE ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE?
WELL, HURRY UP.
>> OH MY GOODNESS.
>> GOOD GRACIOUS.
MY EXPECTATIONS EVERY KID BE ON
TIME.
I'M AN OLD-FASHIONED GUY.
WHEN MANNERS ARE IN PLACE
EVERYTHING ELSE IS GOING TO BE
IN PLACE.
I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT.
>> IN MY SCHOOL YOU DON'T WEAR
A HAT.
WHEN YOU WEAR A HAT, YOU WALK
TO THE DOOR AND YOU TAKE THAT
SUCKER OFF AND YOU PUT IT IN
YOUR LOCKER AND IF YOU'VE GOT
IT ON, I'VE GOT IT.
I'VE GOT SO MANY HATS IN MY
OFFICE I'LL HAVE AN AUCTION IN
JUNE.
IN MY SCHOOL YOU DON'T WALK IN
WITH WALKMAN.
YOU LISTEN TO AND BOP ALL THE
WAY TO SCHOOL BUT WHEN YOU HIT
THE DOOR YOU BETTER BOP THEM
OFF AND IN THE LOCKER.
DO YOU HAVE A LOCKER?
PUT IT IN YOUR LOCKER.
MR. THOMAS, GET IT IN YOUR
LOCKER.
WHAT?
THERE IS A REASON BEHIND IT.
BECAUSE IF YOU GO WEAR A HAT
YOU DON'T RESPECT THE TEACHER.
YOU DON'T RESPECT YOURSELF.
ESPECIALLY IF YOU GOT THAT
SUCKER HANGING OVER TO THE
SIDEWALKING AROUND AND PLAYING
ALL THEM LITTLE GAMES WITH
YOURSELF.
RAP MUSIC?
THAT'S NICE.
NOT IN SCHOOL.
I MEAN, IF YOU CAN REMEMBER THE
WORDS TO RAP MUSIC YOU CAN READ
EVERY ENGLISH BOOK AND MATH
BOOK AND YOU CAN READ.
>> WE BELIEVE THAT EAST
REPRESENTS WHAT WE'RE FOND OF
SPEAKING OF AS THE REAL WORLD.
>> I GRADUATED FROM THIS HIGH
SCHOOL IN 1967.
IN 1967 YOU HAD TO APOLOGIZE,
WE DIDN'T, OF COURSE, WE WERE
VERY PROUD OF EAST HIGH SCHOOL
BUT NOT EVERYBODY IN THE CITY
FELT THE SAME WAY ABOUT EAST
HIGH SCHOOL.
>> BEFORE I MOVED HERE MY
FRIENDS IN THE CITY I USED TO
LIVE IN WOULD MAKE FUN OF ME
AND SAY OH, IF YOU'RE GOING TO
EAST YOU BETTER BRING A KNIFE
WITH YOU.
>> IT'S NOT QUITE A SAME
ANYMORE.
EAST HIGH SCHOOL IS A PRETTY
NEAT PLACE TO BE.
>> I THINK THAT WE HAVE MADE A
SUB STATIVE BEGINNING.
>> THE REPUTATION WE'RE GETTING
NOW IS GREAT.
>> WE HAVEN'T GIVEN UP AND WE
WON'T GIVE UP ON OUR KIDS, ON
OUR FUTURE.
>> I'VE TAKEN THE PHILOSOPHY TO
MY STAFF THAT IN ORDER FOR US
TO BE SUCCESSFUL, THAT WE HAVE
TO BE A FAMILY.
>> HE'S MADE A DIFFERENCE.
HIS RULES ABOUT THE
DISCRIMINATION AND STUFF LIKE
THAT HAVE MADE A BIG DIFFERENCE
AND HE TALKS TO THE STUDENTS.
HE GIVES SPEECHES AND STUFF.
>> I WILL TELL YOU, IF YOU GO
HERE FOUR YEARS AND YOU GET
HUNG UP ON BEING INTOLERANT TO
THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU YOU MAY
NOT GO ACROSS THE STAGE.
I'LL THROW YOUR DIPLOMA TO YOU
BECAUSE THAT'S HOW STRONG I
FEEL ABOUT RACISM.
I WAS THE VICTIM OF RACISM AS A
KID AND THE REASON WHY I'M AN
EDUCATOR IS BECAUSE I WANTED TO
BE ABLE TO EDUCATE YOUNG PEOPLE
NOT TO BE THE WAY -- OR BE
TREATED THE WAY I WAS TREATED
AS A KID.
>> THIS IS WHERE I GREW UP.
I CAN REMEMBER THE HOUSE BEING
SORT OF A GRAY PAINT WITH NO
RUNNING WATER, POT BELLY STOVE.
BACK BEHIND THAT HOUSE IS WHERE
WE USED TO HAVE TO GO GET WATER.
THERE WAS AN ALLEY THERE.
WE WALKED ABOUT THREE BLOCKS TO
GET WATER AND WE PACKED WATER
EVERY DAY.
OVER HERE I HAD A STRANGE
EXPERIENCE WITH MY DAD THEN.
MY DAD DIED LAST YEAR BUT THERE
USED TO BE A VFW DOWN AROUND
THE CORNER AND MY DAD WAS IN
TOWN AND HAPPENED TO -- JUST SO
HAPPENED THAT HE HAD BEEN HERE
A COUPLE WEEKS AND HADN'T SEEN
ME AND I WAS SORT OF ANGRY.
HE ASKED FOR ME TO COME INTO
THE BAR.
MY MOTHER TOLD ME NOT TO GO
INTO THE BAR.
HE FOLLOWED OUT AND ASKED ME TO
STOP AND I SAID NO, YOU CAN
TALK TO ME AT HOME.
AND OF COURSE I WAS ABOUT AS
BIG AS I AM NOW AND HE SAID
WELL YOU NEVER GET TOO BIG FOR
YOUR BRITCHES AND HE SAID WELL,
IF YOU CAN'T STOP AND TALK TO
ME NOW, THEN NEVER SPEAK TO ME
AGAIN.
WELL, HE DIED LAST YEAR AND I
HADN'T SPOKE TO HIM FOR LIKE 35
YEARS AND I HAD SOMETHING TO
SAY TO HIM AND I DIDN'T GET TO
SAY IT AND OF COURSE, SOME OF
THOSE THINGS REFLECT IN WHAT I
DO AT SCHOOL IN TRYING TO BE A
FATHER TO A LOT OF KIDS BECAUSE
I DIDN'T HAVE ONE.
WHEN I LOOK DOWN THE STREET I
CAN STILL SEE MY DAD WALKING
BEHIND ME.
**
>> AFTER PLAYING PRO BALL AND
GOING BACK TO NORTHEAST TO GET
MY MASTER'S DEGREE I WENT BACK
TO MY HOMETOWN AND APPLIED FOR
A POSITION, WHICH AS A KID
GROWING UP THERE I ALWAYS
WANTED AS A TEACHER.
AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD
NOT HIRE ME.
I COULD HAVE BEEN A TEACHER
HERE BECAUSE I ADMIRED THIS
SCHOOL AND I ADMIRED THE PEOPLE
HERE AND I FIRMLY BELIEVE -- I
KNOW IT IS, IT'S BECAUSE I WAS
BLACK AND THERE WAS NO BLACK
TEACHERS.
I DON'T KNOW, I DON'T KNOW IF I
WAS A TEACHER HERE WHAT WOULD I
HAVE DONE, I DON'T KNOW.
BUT I ALWAYS WANTED TO BE A
TEACHER AT THIS HIGH SCHOOL.
THEN I GOT A PHONE CALL TELLING
ME THAT THEY WANTED TO HAVE A
DAY FOR ME TO GIVE ME A KEY TO
THE CITY AND I SAID WELL --
[APPLAUSE]
>> HE'S CONSISTENTLY
DEMONSTRATED HIS LOVE AND
CONCERN FOR YOUNG PEOPLE BY
HELPING THEM REACH THEIR FULL
POTENTIAL.
THEREFORE AS MAYOR OF THE CITY
OF JACKSONVILLE PROCLAIM
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1990 AS
MILTON MCPIKE DAY IN THE CITY
OF JACKSONVILLE.
MILT, I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU TO
HAVE THIS.
[APPLAUSE]
>> THANK YOU.
I'M HERE TO TEACH ALL OF YOU A
SIMPLE AND A FEW LESSONS.
LESSON NUMBER ONE, MAKE SURE
THAT ALL YOUNG PEOPLE FEEL GOOD
ABOUT THEMSELVES.
A PART OF THIS SELF-CONCEPT IS
AT THE BOTTOM OF MOST PERSONAL
SUCCESS.
>> I DIDN'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING
MAJOR AT THE SCHOOL FOR HIM TO
NOTICE ME.
I WAS JUST HERE.
I WENT TO HIM FOR HELP AND HE
HELPED ME.
HE NOTICES EVERYBODY.
>> LESSON NUMBER TWO, MAKE SURE
THAT ALL YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE A
POSITIVE GOAL AND THEY ARE
WORKING TOWARDS THIS.
>> WAY TO GO, ALL RIGHT!
>> LESSON NUMBER THREE, TEACH
OUR YOUNG PEOPLE THAT THERE ARE
NO SHORTCUTS.
>> LAST YEAR I HAD TO GO TO
COURT A LOT AND HE WENT EVERY
SINGLE TIME I HAD A COURT DATE.
HE REALLY CARES.
>> WE MUST HELP OUR YOUNG
PEOPLE SEE PAST THE PROBLEMS
TODAY AND SEE THE POSSIBILITIES
FOR TOMORROW.
>> LET'S GO.
>> TOUGH, FIRM.
I CRY, I SMILE, I LAUGH, I HAVE
FUN.
I LIKE WHAT I DO.
>> LADIES AND YOUNG MEN, LET'S
GO.
>> THAT REPORT WAS PRODUCED BY
DAVE IVERSON AND SHOT BY VIDEO
OPERATOR TOM TURNQUIST.
HE HAS A MILT MCPIKE
