   So, why did the group compromise (cave in) before ever having a meeting? Is even one of the so-called leaders, or should I say, self-serving, misleaders of these youth groupd, black? Not that race matters of course when you are white and earning a salary upwards of $150,000 a year, but the youth you purportedly represent, can’t get summer jobs, or funding for summer jobs. What difference does it make as long as the white liberal youth leaders get paid, right?

   Lindsey,

   I agree with you. I have real issues with the so-called adult leaders of our young people putting them out there with not training on how to really affect change.

   It is more than staging and event (protest). Understanding the process, participating in the process and then if this doesnt work take it to the streets. Taking it to the streets should not be the first action taken. The so-called adult leaders then are sitting back and flaming the fire “see they dont care about you”, while they go home and sit comfortably.

   We have to take control of our young people and train them correctly to make the change they are searching for.

   Forbid them not?

   Suffer little children to come unto me, or was it if little children come unto me they will suffer?
