The Original Title from the Medgar Evers Coalition was "Medgar Evers Poised for CUNY Takeover". But, I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. I just received a communique from the Medgar Evers Coalition, who have been struggling for more than three years now to get Pollard removed.

Just in case you didn't get the memo; just in case you haven't been keeping up with what time it is, I am going to take the opportunity to say WAKE UP BROOKLYN - Your lives are on the line - Literally.
Perhaps the most pivotal date, prior to the actual general election, will take place on Tuesday, June 26, which is the day we vote for our new congressman - either Charles Barron or Hakeem Jeffries; and re-elect our congresswoman Yvette Diane Clarke.

This venerable event has been around now longer than most of Brooklyn's residents- celebrating 54 years and counting. It's full of wonderful, creative work from time honored and new artists – local and national. Interestingly enough, with June also being Black Music Month and Caribbean Heritage Month, there is a cross section of cultures converging on this tiny, yet highly signficant little part in Bed-Stuy – on Fulton between Lewis and Marcus Garvey Boulevards.

The Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies used to be one of the preeminent think tanks in Washington, DC. They focus on issues of particular concern to the Black community.
