Excellent! Spread the video far and wide. Together, the pressure from
within and notice world-wide will work.

Though I really like the civil disobedience idea of refusing to buy
anything in the city of Champaign for the biggest shopping time of the
year, until Champaign accepts the 7 demands. Amendment to the buying
ban: you can buy from north end businesses and black owned businesses,
but no other Champaign business. Urbana is fine to buy from.

The proposal, as far as I know, was not approved. [drat]
