This is what we do… and there are some that don’t hold our interest or regard, and who would have us believe that this is something that could not or should not be done. They choose not to see or value, our ability to transform and our humanity. It is Our imagination, our analysis and our power that have articulated, urged and proven otherwise. Peace and power. We keep us safe. Freedom Community Center
