The Honorable Mayor Ras Baraka, NewArk NJ

Subject: Police violence and the Newark NJ Model

I am thinking how nice it would be for the citizens of the Bay Area, Oakland, Berkeley, San Francisco, Richmond, to say that they feel relieved of police pressure for the first time in their lives. This is what the citizens of NewArk NJ said to me on my recent east coast booktour.

When grown men and women told me this, it brought tears to my eyes. But imagine the possibilities coast to coast. We need to invite Mayor Ras Baraka to tell The Newark NJ Model.
He also brought down gang violence by employing youth, many of whom had never received a check before.


I have long called for the USA to do the three things in American citices they offer insurgents in Iraq and Afghanistan: housing, education and employment.
