Greetings Fellow Activists; I just wanted to extend this email of support to the organizers of the Peace and Unity Vigil. It was very disappointing to hear the remarks of Rev. Willie Wilson against Lesbians and the Gay Community. Our communities are already split and divided by so many different things, we don't need this type division. We commend you in your efforts to unite and especially for praying for Rev. Wilson and his congregation. Instead of protesting and causing a further division it is very noble of you to seek a peaceful resolution. We certainly hope that Rev. Wilson will make a heartfelt apology to the Lesbian community and NOT give birth to a more violent homophobic movement in our Nations Capitol.
The National Alliance of Black Panthers believes in the rights of all human beings and though our focus is on the Black community we are open to working with all people and our community services are available to all people who might need them. Our second in command and Chief of Staff is an open Lesbian as well as our National Secretary. We have received a lot of heat and jabs from other Black organizations but we persevere because we are following a higher mission than they. We proudly stand in solidarity with you here in the Nations Capitol.
Respectfully,
ALL POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
