Chuck Turner Fundraiser 3/20/09

March 19th, 2009 | Category: events

Dear Supporters of Chuck Turner,

I am a long-time supporter of Chuck and the Boston Worker’s Alliance that he helped to organize. I feel passionately that empowering urban low-income people is key to our reclaiming America. For this reason I am organizing a house party sponsored by Mel King, Ty DePass and Horace Small to help raise the necessary money for Boston City Councilor Chuck Turner’s legal defense. It will be at my house, 69 Robeson St. (entrance on the right) Jamaica Plain, 02130, Friday March 20 from 6:30-8:00. (Map and directions attached.) It will be professionally catered with beer, wine, many Hors d’Oeuvres, a chicken and a fish entre.  Minimum donation: $25.

Report Back from Turner Rally @ RCC!

December 9th, 2008 | Category: events, updates

Ever the visionary, ever the rebel, Councilor Turner rallied hundreds of supporters and neighbors at Roxbury Community College this evening. In a crowd that swelled from a capacity of 300 at the outset to a couple hundred more at its high point, Turner methodically refuted the two main media narratives against him: “victimhood” and “need for new leadership”. Throughout the emotional evening, the Councilor and all the speakers, singers, and poets connected with a deep spirituality as they prepared for the next day’s hearing in federal court. The event however was grounded by a serious analysis of US Attorney Sullivan’s motives in bringing charges against Councilor Turner.
