  1. Mr. Roots,

    I was not sure if you had a chance to attend the rally, but it was so powerful. It brought tears to my eyes. Never had I seen so many people of different ages out walking. I am looking forward to going into the Hot Spots. Councilwoman Smith mentioned the first one would be on June 17 at the William Penn do you know what time it starts? Who can attend? Is this just for the people that live in the hot spot or can anyone attend? Honestly, I have participated in alot of these things but this felt different. I felt that the Mayor was genuine about the violence and was committed to working with the people. I also like the fact that it was non-political. The Councilwoman announced the State Rep and all of the Council people. It did not feel like the Republicans were trying to outshine the Democrats or Democrats were trying to outshine the Republicans.

    Just wanted to let you know. Big Shout out the Mayor and Cory Ak

  2. Great feedback. No, I couldn't attend. Despite popular belief, I do have a job and this Saturday was a work day. I'll keep you posted on the upcoming rallies and get your questioned answered.
