I commend what rage is doing in the community it brings an postive impact within in chicago and i myself wanna become an member
My time has come to be more than a spectator of my community. I have grown up in Engelwood graduated from Luke O’ Toole, battled the hardships of attending Harper HS & rose above becoming a product of my environment and now I must give back, reach out to the youth who fallow me. As a film student I have an obligation to televise this bloody, tumultuous, mind altering revolution.
Change needs to occur in Chicago and I know RAGE is going to be at the Forefront of that change. I filled out a membership application online last week and looking forward to being a part of an organization that has such a positive impact on the Englewood community.
The freedom, liberation, equality and justice depends on all of us. I’m ready to die for it. ARE YOU?
Thank you for your dedication and strength
I really need the help
Hi Miss Asha Butler, et al. I just heard you on WVON with Perri Smalls and I want to commend you for your example and dedication to Englewood and the preservation of our people/community. I grew up in Chatham, rode my bike with my brothers in Englewood in the ’60’s, and am a member of Advocate/Trinity UCC and NCOBRA Chicago. Asante Sana Queen!
Looking forward to building a greater ENGLEWOOD. Although I am not currently residing in the are, but my family are long time residents in the Englewood area since the 1960’s. I lost so many who I considered as sons and family members in the Englewood area. My grand daughter’s dad was killed on 59th laflin in 2014 before she was born, and my Mom help so many in the area. I PRAY THAT THE LORD BE WITH ALL WHO JUST WANT TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE; BLOCK BY BLOCK, ONE NEIGHBORHOOD AT A TIME, FROM CITY TO CITY, AND STATE TO STATE. WE ALL CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. GOD BE WITH US ALL. GOD WILL PROVIDE!!!
