Law and order – discounted, dismissed and rejected.
While hypocrites rail that injustice prevails, they blithely ignore what works;
‘compassion that’s real with American values injected’.
Lawless disorder brings injustice to its victims.
So ignore the wailing of the rogues complaining, and do a simple search,
for ‘Woodson Center’ and see their simple dictum.

<<<<note: Robert L. Woodson founded the non-profit Woodson Center (woodsoncenter.org; ph: 202.518.6500) in 1981. He was a leading activist in the Civil Rights Movement during the early 1960s. The Woodson Center, located in Washington DC, focuses on neighborhood empowerment to seek solutions to the problems in disadvantages communities through what he calls the social entrepreneurs that are indigenous to the communities. He grew up in a segregated neighborhood in Philadelphia. The Woodson Center has developed and implemented a number of successful programs in many disadvantaged neighborhoods .
The Community Affiliate Network (“CAN”) is the backbone of the Woodson Center. “Our purpose is to serve our CAN affiliated members (the “CAN Affiliate”) in whatever way we can. It is in this spirit that we hope you join us and our other CAN Affiliate in continuing to make a difference in the lives of our fellow neighbors. We currently have hundreds of organizations and individuals within the network spread across the country. Through CNA, these organizations and individuals can network, find potential collaborators, and share best practices.” woodsoncenter.org.
“CAN also assists its members through the CAN mini-grant program. This program allows grassroots organizations to develop a project, obtain modest funding, and present the results of the projects without having to navigate the cumbersome paperwork and bureaucratic barriers that often prevent smaller, more nimble organizations from being funded.” woodsoncenter.org. >>>>
