Dear Mr. Mayor,
It has come to our attention that a meeting is being hosted at Faith Congregational Church in Hartford on Feb. 8, 2017 for the purposes of discussing residents’ needs and the allocation of resources to meet those needs. Only a select number of clergy are invited to this meeting.
We are disturbed to learn that City leaders believe that only select members of the clergy are worthy of participating in such a meeting. Some members of the clergy who have been heavily involved in community organizing have been excluded from this elite group. Nor does this group speak for the entire community – in fact they aren’t interested in the opinions of some groups in the community.
The Self Defense Brigade is composed of members who are dedicated to the protection of their community. We will protect our community from being victimized from within, from forces with out and power structures over our community. We will be attending the meeting as well.
Sincerely,
Self Defense Brigade
Cornell Lewis, Founder
