>>My Dear Brother,
>>
>>I think that Sister Jabou's suggestion to also send out HARD COPY mailings
>>to not only Representative Ford and other WCM Officials, but to also many
>>Senators and Congressmen who have keen interest in Africa is a winner. She
>>has come up with a very progressive idea and formula in our struggle to
>>foster effective collective participation. Hard copy mailings to all these
>>important people would provide a historic hard physical evidence for them
>>to digest, and more importantly, it would become historic document for
>>them in their political archives. Since we are all evolving in coming with
>>tangible ideas of how to encourage efficiency and effectiveness in
>>handling situations, we should always be ready to learn from each other.
>>In this case, Sister Jabou should be commended for coming with the idea of
>>HARD COPY MAILINGS to not only a few, but to many.
>>
>>In addition to that, it seems to be effective to confront the Ford
>>situation from three angles: Collective Emailing, Hard Copy Mailings and
>>Seeking direct audience with Representative Ford. In the Stovall
>>situation, there was not Hard Copy mailings, but there had been visitation
>>at Rust by our two able brothers: LAMIN CONTEH and MR.. JALLOW. These
>>brothers have sacrificed their time, energy and resources to meet with
>>Stovall personally, and it worked well. Therefore, Sister Jabou's
>>suggestion this time to also include Hard Copy Mailings to give extra
>>weight to the petition is certainly welcome. To that end, I applaud Sister
>>Jabou.
