Hello,
I have left a telephone message on this same subject but wanted to cover as
many bases as possible.
Imani Bazzell spoke to someone at your organization about working with
CARE-3 in its community information campaign. She reported to the group
that there was a willingness "in theory" on your part to assist with our aims.
We will have a table set up in Douglas Park on Saturday, Aug. 11 from about
10:00 a.m. until the end of the day's activities. We will be passing out
pluggers that will inform the African-american parent's of children in Unit
4 schools about the problems in the district, about up-coming
forum/hearings to be held as well as doing a petition drive on these same
issues.
I, as an artist, would like to use IMC's expertise in putting together
video footage of the entire process, from Saturday's events, to the
individual community forums/hearings to eventual attendance at School Board
Meetings where heated topics will be debated by informed citizenry. As you
can see, the scope of this project ranges over a period of time. As I'm
not sure how your agency works exactly, I would love the opportunity to
speak with someone by phone to see how we can coordinate efforts.
I look forward to hearing from a representative of IMC.
Regards,
Amira M. Davis
