• World Court Hearing on Human Rights Violations in the United States of America.
    The United States has shown a lack of will for 400 years in addressing and offering remedy and relief to Black and other Minority Citizens regarding their Human and Civil Rights. We would like for the subject to be elevated to the World Court as an Artier in dialogue and seeking remedy to the racial inequities of this system. We believe the dialogue is needed to avoid more violence and bloodshed caused by the continued practice of inequity in the administration of Justice in this Nation.

  • DEMAND ARRESTS -> George Floyd was murdered
    We are gutted that George Floyd was killed by four police officers earlier this week. A father and a son, George worked security at a restaurant, where fellow employees say he was loved by all. "Knowing my brother is to love my brother," George's brother Philonise told CNN earlier this week. George was murdered by Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin who knelt on George’s neck for seven minutes until he died as he gasped the words we’ve tragically heard before, “I can’t breath,” and called for his mother. Three of Chauvin's colleagues stood by and watched Chauvin end George's life. *Join us to demand that all four police officers who killed George Floyd are charged with murder, and for the vicious and inflammatory attacks on protesters, including the inflammatory attacks by President Trump, to stop immediately. We grieve, we’re angry, and we cannot stop holding leaders accountable.

  • Fire President Jerry Falwell, Jr. From Liberty University
    1. Liberty University will remain complicit in the racism of Jerry Falwell, Jr. If they allow him to remain President of Liberty University 2. The black face and KKK Twitter picture and comment Jerry Falwell, Jr. posted weaponized the deep seeded heritage of racism as a political ploy for his own personal gain! 3. Furthermore, advertising and selling the masks with the Governor of Virginia's high school photo wearing black face next to a KKK member profits off of the racial injustice faced by African-Americans and defames the name of Christ for which the university is to represent! FALWELL MUST GO!

  • #JusticeforDavisBrothers Governor Asa Hutchinson must GRANT TIME CUT/CLEMENCY NOW!
    In 1994, 2 Black Men Lamarr Davis, 21 years of age and Arthur Davis Jr., 25 years of age, were charged with aggravated robbery. No one was shot, stabbed, or killed during this robbery which took place at Prattsville One Stop store in Grant County outside of Sheridan Arkansas (a very well known racist area). Both of these brothers were given a sentence of life in prison without parole. The robbery was a first offense for Lamarr Davis. They received excessive sentencing, a direct violation of their eighth amendment.The Eighth Amendment of the Constitution states: 'Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. ' The amendment is meant to safeguard Americans against excessive punishments. The Davis brothers were sentenced to life and have served 26 years to date. They have been left to spend the remaining days of their lives in prison and their crime does not fit with the time they received. We must act NOW to end this racially charged excessive sentencing. We are demanding justice for the Davis brothers. They have given up so much of their lives to the prison system and Enough is Enough. We Must seek just for this injustice NOW! Sign the petition demanding Governor Asa Hutchinson immediately grant time cut/clemency for the Davis brothers.

  • The George Floyd Protection Act
    To hear "I can't breath" 11-12 times while bystanders beg the officer to get off George Floyd's neck because he is killing him is life changing. This officer did not remove his full body weight from George Floyd's neck while he too begged and pleaded for his life. George Floyd's exact words to the officer were, "You're killing me." The officer remained on George Floyd's neck for 5-8 minutes with his hand in his pocket supporting the fact that George Floyd was no threat to these officers; therefore, the continued restraint with his full body weight to George Floyd's neck is criminal. A blatant violation of the city's police policy deems the officers' acts criminal. No human being can withstand a trauma of this magnitude. It depicts the lowest level of inhumanity. This egregious act violated George Floyd's civil rights; sentencing him to death without evidence that the 'misdemeanor' crime being charged was factual. Implementing "The George Floyd Protection Act" will save the lives of many and stop this pattern of blatant homicidal acts by those who have no regard to the oath to protect and serve. Knowing there are penalties, fines, and potential imprisonment can save lives.

  • Justice for George Floyd
    Minneapolis police kill black people at a rate 13x higher than white people - a larger racial disparity than almost anywhere else in the nation. This is unconscionable. These grave injustices have got to stop, immediately! You have the opportunity to redress some of the wrong that’s been done by prosecuting all of the police officers who were involved in murdering George Floyd. The police need to stop justifying hate crimes and MURDER by giving causes for the use of lethal and excessive force, instead of making police de-escalate & holding them accountable for their inherent biases. No human being should have to live in mortal fear because of racial profiling and criminalizing black and brown men in Minneapolis and in other American cities!

  • #JusticeforFloyd: Demand the officers who killed George Floyd are charged with murder
    It happened again. His name was George Floyd, and on May 25th he was murdered by Minneapolis police officers. George Floyd was a Black man, who was murdered in broad daylight after a grocery clerk called the police thinking he was writing a bad check. For seven minutes, George laid on the street while officers Derek Chauvin and Tou Thao held their knee on his neck as he was struggling to breathe. He lost consciousness and yet they continued to strangle him. Numerous bystanders pleaded with the police officer to let him go, while Floyd said the words “I can’t breathe,” several times, but the officer refused to remove his knee from Floyd’s neck. After the murder, officers called his death a "medical problem." And it wasn't until the video was released clearly showing them choking him, did we finally see the truth. This was a blatant and disgusting coverup to prevent accountability for their brutal act of police violence. This is incomprehensible. His life was taken in a senseless act of violence at the hands of the Minneapolis Police Department, all for being “suspected” of writing a bad check. Police continue to hunt down Black folks in cities across America and we refuse to sit silent. It was not too long ago we heard Eric Garner utter the same last words, “I can’t breathe.” And just months ago, officers stormed Breonna Taylor’s home and murdered her in a botched investigation. On May 26th, officers Derek Chauvin and Tou Thao, and two other officers who were present, were fired from the Minneapolis Police Department. This is a step in the right direction to hold the officers accountable for murdering George Floyd but more action must be taken. We are calling for further action from Mayor Jacob Frey and County Attorney Freeman. Mayor Frey must 1) block the officers from receiving their pensions and 2) ban them from ever becoming police officers again. And County Attorney Freeman must immediately charge the officers with murder.

  • Port Wentworth City Council: Take Councilmen Barbee & Stephens to Court to get our money back
    Councilman Barbee and Councilman Stephens cost the city taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars when they failed to show up for several council meetings in a row. By not showing up to meetings, city council could not conduct city business and official meetings were not able to be held. Both Councilmen intentionally boycotted official meetings for political reasons. The taxpayers should not be required to pay the costs of their political agenda's.
