This organization, this mission, this vision - isn't because its profitable,



isn't because its easy, and Lord knows isn't because its popular. We are focused on bridging the gap between black & conservative America because its the RIGHT THING TO DO.

If you have never truly been in & seen an inner-city ghetto in one of America's urban/metropolitan areas, you really should. These districts, heavily populated by ethnic-minorities, are blights. Above average crime rates, joblessness, drug trafficing, teen pregnancy rates, failing schools with high drop-out rates, high unemployment, people living with bars on their windows, etc., ...in many ways sealed off from "the American dream."

How can you & I, as conservatives, see these living conditions of our fellow man and *NOT* want to do all within our power to help? If you are not moved with compassion & desire to help break the shackles that people in such situations live in, something is wrong with your heart and I'd question the true depth of your conservatism. MLK nailed it, decades ago. Supporting this organization and cause and/or others like it is righteous.

Thank you to all of our partners & sponsors. You are the reason we were able to do MLK earlier this week and continue to make waves and headway into reversing this 50-year slide that has virtually ALL of our urban, inner-cities voting one way & feeling the pain of doing so. We can, we must, and we WILL turn this around.
