At its meeting on Dec. 6, 2009 the Imperial Women voted to protest across from the home of Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson (2327 E. 38th St. in Cleveland) with other grassroots organizations on Saturday, Dec. 19, 2009 at 2 pm. The reasons are as follows: 1) The mayor's refusal to get back with the Imperial Women as to the demands presented around the Imperial Ave. Murders as to a meeting of the women on Nov. 16, 2009 where Cleveland Director of Community Relations Blaine Griffin promised a response; 2) The mayor's refusal to initiate the firings and an investigation of Cleveland Chief of Police Michael McGrath, Law Director Robert Triozzi, Safety Director Martin Flask, Chief Prosecutor Victor Perez (all non-Black and non-female), the health department and police as to the refusal to prosecute Anthony Sowell in 2008 where a Black woman who alleged attempted rape by Sowell was deemed not credible, and six of the 11 women murdered on Imperial Ave. went missing thereafter; 3) The mayor's refusal to initiate an investigation of police around allegations of police brutality and a statement by a White female neighbor that 23-year-old Black female Rebecca Whitby was allegedly called a “nigger” and beat up by police, where she is being accused of assault on police and allegedly stealing their guns though her fingerprints are allegedly not on the guns; 4) The mayor's refusal to tame Director of Community Relations Blaine Griffin who allegedly harassed and sought to intimidate community activist Marcia McCoy at a recent rally around the city- trash-pick-up for money controversy; and, 5) The mayor's refusal to direct city Law Director Robert Triozzi to move for dismissal of an illegal resisting arrest verdict railroaded by Cleveland Municipal Court Judge Kathleen Ann Keough against journalist Kathy Wray Coleman even though sole arresting White male sheriff deputy Gerald Pace did not accuse her of it or testify at trial or otherwise. (Black women are being mistreated and the mayor refuses to speak up. He also refuses to put Blacks and women in key leadership roles in the law enforcement arena where the chief prosecutor, chief of police, law director, safety director, ems commissioner, deputy ems commissioner, chief of staff and health director are all non-Black and non-female in a city that is majority Black and predominantly female. The indictment against Black women must stop).
The Imperial Women also take issue with the United Pastors in Mission and the Cleveland Plain Dealer pitting Black women against each other (Ohio State Sen. Nina Turner and Call and Post Associate Publisher and Editor Connie Harper) claiming an alleged mistreatment of a Black woman while refusing to join the Imperial Women in our request to Mayor Jackson for an investigation of authorities as to the refusal to prosecute Sowell in 2008 where the Black woman that alleged rape was deemed “not credible.
