CONGRESSMAN HAKEEM JEFFRIES TO SERVE AS KEYNOTE SPEAKER FOR 71ST ANNUAL FIGHT FOR FREEDOM FUND DINNER
The NAACP Detroit Branch Fight For Freedom Fund Dinner, scheduled for Sunday, April 26, 5 p.m. at Huntington Place in downtown Detroit will serve as a call to action. This call to action comes at a time when each one of us are called to stand up, defend, protect, and continue this idea called America, the land of the free and the home of the brave with liberty and justice for all.
PRESS STATEMENT - A FREEDOM FIGHTER HAS FALLEN
As the world mourns the loss of the iconic and historic life of the Rev. Jesse Louis Jackson, let us not focus on our loss, but let us focus on our gain. Through this soldier, warrior, spiritual and faithful disciple for the ultimate dignity and respect of all people, we must pledge to continue his deeds. It is the deeds of Rev. Jackson that serves as a marker for all those who believe in freedom and justice.
KICK-OFF AND PASSING OF THE GAVEL - 71ST ANNUAL FIGHT FOR FREEDOM FUND DINNER
In observing the current state of political-socio events in our nation, that direction leaves us with but one choice. It is rooted in the theme that the NAACP Detroit Branch has selected for its 71st Fight For Freedom Fund Dinner, LIBERTY OR OPPRESSION - THE CHOICE IS OURS.
70TH ANNUAL FIGHT FOR FREEDOM FUND DINNER KEYNOTE SPEAKER AND AWARDEES ANNOUNCED
“ We believe that all of us - Black, White, Jew, Arab, Gentile, Hispanic, and Asian - must come together to fight against this tidal wave of disrespect, anti-Americanism, and threat to the very lifeline of each and every American. It is with this backdrop that we invite everyone to step up, stand out, and show your concern for our people and this nation at our upcoming NAACP Detroit Branch 70th Annual Fight For Freedom Fund Dinner.”
PRESS STATEMENT - A CHANGE FOR THE COMMUNITY
Some of us are looking in the wrong direction for help. Some of us are leaning on certain people in powerful positions to secure their strength. This is why so many folks are selling themselves out, just to be in position to be a friend, confidant, and appointee of the incoming President.
