• The end to black-on-black violence. The shootings, the drug dealing, the stealing must stop. If we are to move ahead we must come together and solve these problems.
  
  
• More black businesses in Williamsport. Here’s an idea: let’s start an African-American /Underground Railroad museum and school. Dr. Mamie Diggs has done much of the groundwork already. The museum-school would offer a course on what it was like to be a slave on the run in the 1850’s. A weekend camp would similate the hardships that escaping slaves endured. It would make a good tourist attraction and provide much needed jobs in our area.
  
  
• To have all the black churches unite in solidarity. Our black churches could offer college scholarships to qualified black youth. This work has already been done on a limited basis, the program could easily be expanded to include more students.
  
  
• To start black book clubs. If the adults are reading, the children will read. We can form groups and talk about books by black authors. (Code of the Street would be an excellent book to start the whole thing rolling.
  
  
• To support CAPPA and the NAACP.
  
  
• To see highly trained black professionals in positions of management. Black income levels need to be raised. We need more bankers, doctors, real estate agents, lawyers, financial advisors, college professors, politicians, police officers and other administrative positions for blacks.
  
  
• Better performance of black children in our school system. The drop out rate for young black males must be reduced significantly.
  
  
• To give hope to our children for a bright future.
