DESCRIPTION:Hear From a Courageous African Woman Who Stood Up to the Vicious Ethnic 
 Cleansing of the Black Community of Tampa, Florida -  and Won!     Featured 
 as the keynote speaker will be Connie Burton, leader in the International 
 People's Democratic Uhuru Movement out of Tampa, Florida.   Several months 
 ago, Burton led an African community struggle against the city of Tampa's  
 plans to kick African people out of the Tampa Park apartments in what the 
 city considered "prime real estate."       Utilizing the combination of her 
 weekly "Straight Talk" radio program she hosts in Tampa with massive 
 leafleting, bullhorning, protests and participation in weekly Tampa housing 
 authority meetings, the Uhuru Movement in Tampa under Connie's leadership 
 was able to push out the city's latest ethnic cleansing plan to remove 
 black people from the neighborhood!     Join this discussion about the 
 devastating situation that exists from the Tampa Bay to the SF Bay as 
 African people are forced from their communities. Through policies of 
 police containment and a U.S.-imposed drug economy, young Africans in their 
 communities in the Bay area face prison, the military, or the grave while 
 white people are able to move into their neighborhoods.   Other speakers at 
 the forum include Quetzaocelocuia of the Barrio Defense Committee in San 
 Jose, Maurice Campbell of the Community First Coalition of Bayview-Hunter's 
 Point, Bakari Olatunji of the International People's Democratic Uhuru 
 Movement in Oakland, and Wendy Snyder of the African People's Solidarity 
 Committee.     Let's take a stand from the white community to support 
 genuine economic development and an end to the war on the African 
 community!  Call (510) 295-7834 for more info, leave a voicemail at
