Sunny Side /South Park Super Neighborhood

Grassroots and Elected Officials Leadership Principles

Oct 08, 2002

It is a damn shame how elected officials speak from both sides of their months and in many cases have no intention to resolve many of the problems at the grassroots levels. Depending on your color or the color of your money or being green with envy, will dictate how low or how high you will go to get what you want. On the other hand it is worst that some grassroots leaders are so greedy or hungry for power we accept not so good political leadership and lead others to follow our personal agenda's. We will explore methods to determine if someone has more of a personal agenda in mind or the communities interest in mind. Grassroots leadership must become balanced analytical and become skilled in policy and procedures, instead of self serving emotional and greedy allegiances and tactics.

This newsletter will address many real situations that happen with this super neighborhood and in our community the names will be different from the real people but the events will be real. We will ask the readers to send their solutions, suggestions, recommendations and comments to what you read. Please see our Talk About It section.

At times things will be funny and some will be serious, but thats life in the neighborhood. Our aim is to reduce the following negative results that have plagued the black community from within and without:
Envy
Jealousy
The Crab Theory
Backbitting
Slander
False Rumors
Out Right Lies
Down Right Lies
Sterotypes
Lack of Support
Failure to Stand for What's Right
to name a few.

We will explore city, county, state and federal governmental agencies as well as school districts and colleges.

Please stay tuned for interesting and real life events.
