A Call for all African-americans to Participate in National Black Out Day!
WHO: WARREN BALLENTINE, AL SHARPTON, MARTIN LUTHER KING III & MANY OTHERS
WHAT: The National Blackout is necessary for African Americans & oppressed citizens, and is long over due. Especially with all the present injustices that are being allowed and accepted in America right now. From the situation with Mychal Bell and the Jena 6, Genarlow Wilson, Megan Williams, and all of the nooses being hung all of America lately. Until we have federal legislation regarding hate crimes as African Americans we need to band together to show our "Economic Power" by refusing to spend ANY money in the United States on November 2nd.
WHY: As African Americans we spend an estimated 715 billion dollars a year, and if we were to stop spending for one day that will be 2 billion dollars that will not be in the system. However we ask that you don’t make a mad dash to the stores days prior or the days following. If the stores have a major increase in sales right before or right after the Blackout than we will create the impact we need.
WHEN: Friday, November 2, 2007
WHERE: Nationwide! This take place in any community or town where you normally shop.
** Make sure you spread the word thru out your community! **
