Kathy [Wray Coleman], (From national NAACP President Derrick Johnson)

Over the last 48 hours, we have once again seen the familiar faces of hate and
bigotry. We have seen white supremacists - wrapped in armbands emblazoned with the
Swastika, holding torches, and carrying the flags of the Confederacy - march through
Charlottesville, one of our great American cities.
[http://live-naacp-site.pantheonsite.io/latest/naacp-condemns-u...esville-virginia/]

And we have felt a familiar frustration as those in our nation's highest office have
chosen not to acknowledge the pain that these hateful symbols bring, but rather have
chosen to blame individuals "on many sides." 

Our hearts and prayers are with the families of those who lost their lives in
Charlottesville. 

We have received thousands of calls and emails from citizens around the country
asking: "what can I do?"

I say, we must stand strong, arm-in-arm with our neighbors, to speak out in one
unified voice. We must use our time, our talents and our resources to assist, and to
caution against the repeated rhetoric that has helped to fuel this climate of
division and derision. [http://www.naacp.org/membership/]

This has to change. You can help. Stand with us. [http://www.naacp.org/membership/]

In solidarity,
Derrick Johnson

Chief and unfair Cuyahoga County Judge John Russo loses authority-Part 2 of a multi-part series on Cuyahoga County public corruption: New Ohio law on seeking possible removal of a municipal court judge in a case for bias or conflict via the filing of an affidavit of prejudice takes authority to decide from chief Cuyahoga County Presiding Judge John Russo, other chief common pleas judges in Ohio, and hands it to the chief justice of the Ohio Supreme Court, who also determines affidavits of prejudice filed against common pleas, probate, juvenile, domestic relations, and state appellate court judges....Most affidavits of prejudice are denied regardless of the merits and some judges complained of will retaliate, data show... Community activists, led by Cleveland activist Kathy Wray Coleman of the Imperial Women Coalition, lobbied the Cleveland NAACP for support and asked state legislators via state Rep Bill Patmon (D-10) of Cleveland to change the law but wanted a panel of judges and others to decide when a judge in Ohio is disqualified from hearing a case for bias or conflict....Coleman says she has since been further harassed by Chief Cuyahoga County Judge John Russo, who is White and leads a racist and sexist common pleas court fueled with corruption, malicious prosecutions, excessive criminal bonds, ineffective assistance of counsel to poor and Black defendants, and the mass incarceration of the Black community....By www.clevelandurbannews.com and www.kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com, Ohio's most read digital Black newspapers....This is part 2 of a multi-part series on Cuyahoga County public corruption
