“It is no secret, that any and every group that claims to fight for Civil Rights has used Dr. King and Black Suffrage as their poster child for change. In some sad instances, Blacks have allowed themselves and our struggle to be prostituted by these political operatives.”
~Rev. Isaac Hayes, Former Congressional Candidate

Rev. Hayes joined more than 40 African-American religious and political leaders on Monday, January 17, 2010, Martin Luther King Day, to decry the misrepresentation of King’s legacy and the noble civil rights cause. With the recent passage of the “civil unions” bill in Springfield, these good men and women decided that they could not remain silent.
