Take Action

Call your U.S. Congressman to tell him that you want action to stop foreclosures now.  Bear Stearns, the real estate industry and banks have lobbyists to support their interests.  Unless you speak out, homeowners in crisis will be left out.  To find out who your Congressman is, visit http://www.congress.org/congressorg/home/.

Tell your member of Congress that you want the bankruptcy laws changed to permit homeowners to modify Adjustable Rate Mortgages.

Genarlow Wilson has been released!  Thanks to the Georgia Supreme Court, B.J. Berstein, Senator Emanuel Jones, Representative Alisha Thomas Morgan, Senator Vincent Fort, Dr. Joseph E. Lowery and Helen Butler of Georgia Coalition for the People’s Agenda, Francis Johnson of the NAACP the SCLC, Concerned Black Clergy, National Action Network and everyone who participated in this fight.  We have good reason to celebrate – Justice has been administered.  We wish Genarlow and his family God’s grace and mercy.

    'The struggle continues' - Jackson inspires change, action at SCSU with
    voter tour Latoya Taylor, a South Carolina State University senior,
    believes she's a person who can do something about the injustice and   
    inequality which the Rev. Jesse L. Jackson says still continues for
    African-Americans. Taylor first saw Jackson during her freshman year at   
    SCSU and was even more compelled to hear him speak this year as part
    of a voter education tour that is taking Jackson and his Rainbow PUSH
