Congrats.

Now we have to make sure that monument isn't the center of crime and poverty like the schools and streets in his honor are.

Excellent point. It always amazes me because AA always want the street in our community but once we have it, the street becomes the "bad" part of town.

NC had ANCA this past weekend. Brothers were leaving Saturday morning to make the trip to DC. After seeing the event from media, I too wish that I had attended.
