toby Mikel divide Holt and conquer Milwaukee’s status as the country’s most segregated city makes it an ideal center to initiate a new multi-racial movement, Minnesota’s first Black con- gressman declared Friday. Speaking at the 27th Annual James Baker Award Dinner, Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) told the audience gathered to honor this year’s recipient, Wanda J. Montgomery that Black Americans need to be at the vanguard of a new move- ment to build racial solidarity. The racism, bigotry and misogynist undertone that has defined this year’s presidential election is not accidental, Ellison declared, adding there is a strategic objective behind the rhetoric that has tainted the campaign. “It’s not just the random rambling of a crazy fool; although Donald Trump is that,” he said to laughter. Instead, the election is about the desires of the 1% who control 75% of the nation’s wealth, maintaining control over the majority. It’s money vs. man, he said, the rich seeking to undermine the democratic process to benefit their agenda.

But right is not enough,” he said. Black coalition shocked by NAACP People must mobilize and fight to make democracy work for their best in- terests.

The most notable is because he loved Lazarus, and Martha and Mary.

Jesus also wept when the chosen people failed to keep the city 'holy' and set apart For eight decades Social Security from other world powers ...He saw the city and wept over it.
