Viewership of our Heather Ellis Blog is Growing Each week

blogviewers

The Your Black World Coalition took up the cause of Heather Ellis knowing that she was being ignored by nearly everyone with the exception of Pastor Jessie Bonner from the local NAACP and Pastor Dwight Montgomery from the Memphis chapter of the SCLC.  We stepped in to support their efforts with a national campaign that pushed the issue to CNN, NBC, AOL, the Associated Press and nearly every other national media outlet in America. 

Finally, the world is starting to take notice.  The Rev. Al Sharpton has mentioned on the air that he would like to join Dr. Boyce Watkins if he chooses to make another trip to the Missouri area, Stephen Sokoloff has recused himself from the case, and America is now debating the merits of the justice system when it comes to their treatment of African Americans. 

We want to thank those of you who are supporting Heather and encourage you to tell your friends about the case.  When it comes to saving our children, it takes a village to make things right.
