LOCAL NEWS Candidates for Mpls NAACP presidency promise reform, new vision By: Isaac Peterson, III Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder Originally posted 11/11/2004
In two Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder �In Our View� editorials, October 9 and October 16, 2003, we reviewed areas where we believed the Minneapolis Branch of the NAACP had gone badly off track and recommended four measures we considered critical to constructive reform. At that time, we proposed these measures as challenges for incoming Branch President Brett Buckner to address; they were ignored, and the Branch fell further into dysfunction, paralyzed by infighting. Now, with the Branch ineffective and essentially in limbo, three candidates for Branch president have emerged: Zachary Metoyer, Duane Reed and James Everett. The election will be decided on November 20. http://www.minneapolisnaacp.org -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm REMINDERS: 1.
