Please understand why coming together is important! The NAACP is not doing it. The churches are not standing with us! Where are our people? Around 28,500 homes are being loaded to sell online right now! We should have thousands at every rally! We are running out of time but we can stop this if we unite. How is displacing a 100,000 people not a humanitarian crisis? Oh, and the water shutoffs— that too!  Please watch this video. See a 68-year-old get thrown out of her family home! The taxes are trumped— illegal—but we need to be united! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s69HSYSxff0
