WASHINGTON, D.C.-The Washington, D.C. press secretary for U.S. Rep. Marcia L. Fudge (D-OH), a Warrensville Hts Democrat whose 11th Congressional District includes Cleveland's predominantly Black east side and Black pockets of Akron, a city some 35 miles south of Cleveland, has left her post to serve as an Ohio regional campaign press spokesperson for Obama for America, President Barack Obama's reelection campaign venue.

Laura Allen (pictured) told Cleveland Urban News.Com in a telephone interview yesterday from Washington, D.C. that she will begin working for the Obama campaign beginning next week and that Fudge has not found a replacement for her yet, and she said that she does not know what regional post she will be assigned to but that she has, in fact, joined the Obama 2012 campaign.

"I start next week," said Allen, who said also that she would be relocating to Columbus, Oh. this weekend.

Mass rally for Travon Martin is April 15, 2nd New Hope Baptist Church in Cleveland, 3 pm, led by blind man Sears Mitchell, with youth, elected officials, grassroots, Vision of Angels dancers

  • PDF

CLEVELAND, Ohio-A mass rally for justice for seventeen-year old Trayvon Martin will be held on Sun., April 15 from 3 to 6 pm at The Second New Hope Baptist Church, 2917 E. 116th St. at Buckeye Ave. in Cleveland., Oh.,  telephone number 216- 229-2022.

Contacts for the rally are Sears Mitchell at 216-548-4478,  the office of the Vision of Angels Youth Foundation at 216-543-5330, Imperial Women Leader Kathy Wray Coleman at 216-932-3114, Peace in the Hood Leader Khalid Samad at 216-538-4043, and Black on Black Crime Founder Art McKoy at 216-253-4070.
The event is supported by Cleveland area grassroots organizations and elected officials and is sponsored by the Vision of Angels Youth Foundation and its 40- member youth dance troop, which is led by Sears Mitchell, 46,  a blind man who says he is handi-capable and not handicapped, and that he can see through the injustice of the Florida legal system in refusing to charge White neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman for killing the unarmed Black Travon  in Feb. in Sandford, FL.
The refusal of Florida law enforcement authorities to charge Zimmerman with Trayvon's murder for following him, stalking him and then gunning the teen down has sparked nationwide protests led by Civil Rights activists such as the Rev. Jesse Jackson, the Rev. Al Sharpton, and National NAACP President Ben  Jealous.
"I can see through a lot of things and the injustice in the Trayvon Martin case is just one of them," said Mitchell." We invite everybody to the mass rally and urge people to wear hoodies because Trayvon was killed wearing a hoodie. This rally will be well attended and will include  people of all ages and backgrounds coming together."
Sears said that his group will rally from 3 to 4 pm outside of the church and then gather inside for a praise dance session by his dance troop and others, and another rally with speakers that will include himself,  area clergy, Second New Hope Baptist Church Asst. Pastor Mike Oliver,  youth participants,  Peace in the Hood Founder Khalid Samad, Imperial Women Leader Kathy Wray Coleman, Cleveland Jobs With Justice Executive Director Debbie Kline, Black on Black Crime Founder Art McKoy, Oppressed People's Nation Leader Ernest Smith , Cleveland Councilpersons Mamie Mitchell, Jeff Johnson and Zach Reed, State Reps. Bill Patmon (D-10) and John Barnes (D12) , and a host of others.
