Charleston resident Ira Editorial Barrett, owner of Tokens, located at 407 Lincoln Ave., and a participant in the “Not In Our Town” forum, said the task force’s goal is to remind community members to respect other people. But at this point, plenty of discussion has been done. It is time for this group of Eastern and Charleston community members to do more than just discuss the community’s problem. The task force must focus on pro-active meth- ods to addressing discrimination and intolerance, and now is the best time to think about how this task force can give the Eastern and Charleston communities what they need. In order to be effective, the task force should publicize its meeting times and locations and let others know they are welcome to attend the meetings to share their experiences, opinions and ideas. The committee also should collect all race- related reports that come through the county, city and campus police stations to study and analyze what is actually happening in the communities.
