if the Black community, population and leadership can
unite in settig up their own system of governance independent
of everything handed down; that means building up as equal
not relying on the given system that is already biased
toward people who have developed through that process.
IM2 I'm beginning to visualize how this will work out.
It's what I was TRYING to say Freedmen's Town would be used for.
And when it comes from the Black community OF COURSE it
comes out different than how "I would say it" as an outsider just
trying to help network to get people on the same page.
I will try to get you in contact with Ivory Mayhorn who has
been building up their own community base instead of the
destructive criminal justice system. All the students who were
organizing around Devon Wade before he died all want to continue
his dream of revolutionizing the criminal justice system and building
programs around what works for those communities. Nobody else
seems to understand unless you are from that perspective.
I think they are on the same page as you.
Just need to connect, and all your plans will take off.
Thank you
