PRESS STATEMENT - DON’T CELEBRATE THE KING WITHOUT DOING THE WORK OF THE KINGDOM!
“On Monday, January 17, voices from every corner of America will proclaim how much they love, and revere Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Politicians from Republicans, Democrats, and Independents will attend worship services, pay community tributes, send out press releases and make pompous statements about how much he did for this country. They will openly and unashamedly declare how great he was and how much he fought for racial equality. Many will quote passages from his historic I Have A Dream speech (the only one unfortunately in which most are even familiar), as they consistently work to turn it into a nightmare. In approaching the King holiday, it is important to remember Dr. King was not just a dreamer. He was a doer. He was a worker. He did not stand on ceremony. He stood on sacrifice. Please do not leave him perched on a mountain top dreaming. He must be brought back down into the valley, still working.”

PRESS STATEMENT - MICHIGAN STATE POLICE MUST DO BETTER!
“Today’s announcement by the Michigan State Police of racial and ethnic disparities in the frequency of traffic stops impacting African Americans is revealing but not surprising. Many of us in the civil rights community have been saying this for years. It is also an indication of what is happening in many local police departments across the state. Prior to COVID-19 on any Monday in court rooms across Michigan related to traffic citations and arrests, they were often filled with African Americans and people of color.”
