SOUL - Martin Luther King Day 2013
Sunday, January 13, 2013
2:30pm - 4:30pm
3566 S. Cottage Grove.
West Point Missionary Baptist Church
This is the time each year when we celebrate the legacy of Dr. King and continue his work through community organizing. Some of the issues we will address include funding for an arts & recreation center in Bronzeville, restoring bus service on 31st Street, closing state corporate tax loopholes so we can avoid massive budget cuts to Medicaid and education, and addressing the vacant property epidemic through a land bank that will create both affordable housing and jobs.
We will be asking elected officials to make commitments on issues affecting our communities. We need to show our elected officials that their constituents are watching and that people care about these issues.
Please come out and bring your friends, neighbors, and fellow congregants!
Musical celebration and sign-in will take place from 2:30 - 3:00, with the public meeting starting promptly at 3:00.
