🔥 “A Message to Black America”
1.
Black America, hear me clearly: the Supreme Court’s latest blow to voting rights and the Louisiana Governor’s decision to redraw the congressional map are not accidents. They are choices. And they are aimed directly at our power.

2.
Every time we rise, someone tries to push us back down. Every time we build political strength, someone redraws a line, rewrites a rule, or reinterprets a law to weaken it.

3.
This is not new. This is the same old playbook—just dressed in modern language and legal technicalities. But the goal is the same: dilute Black voices, limit Black representation, and slow Black progress.

4.
Let’s stop pretending this is neutral. When voting protections are stripped away, our communities feel the hit first. When maps are redrawn to silence us, our children lose resources, our neighborhoods lose investment, and our future loses leverage.

5.
But here’s what they always forget:
We are the descendants of people who survived the impossible.
We are the children of organizers, freedom fighters, and visionaries.
We don’t fold. We mobilize.

6.
So let’s be crystal clear about the assignment:
• Stay loud
• Stay informed
• Stay organized
• Support the legal fights
• Hold every official accountable
• And vote like our lives depend on it—because they do

7.
They are counting on us to be tired. To be divided. To be discouraged. But we’ve never been a people who retreat in the face of injustice. We confront it. We expose it. We outwork it.

8.
This moment is not the end of our power. It is the beginning of our next chapter. And if history has taught America anything, it’s this: when Black people decide to move, the whole nation shifts.

9.
Stand up. Lock in. Push forward.
We are not done. We are not defeated.
We are just getting started.

Walter L. Cohen Alumni and Friends: Committed to Excellence

Since 2019, Walter L. Cohen Alumni and Friends has supported students through various initiatives. Despite legal challenges over the past two years, Judge Paulette Irons ruled on Docket NO: 2023-03951 on 10/31/2024. A full copy of the case is available upon request. The judgment has strengthened our relationship with the school and the CMO to better support the students.
