The Greensboro Watchman
Dear Editor:
There are many good reasons for the citizens of West Alabama to support the Democracy Defense League. These are some of the reasons I joined:
- The League is non-partisan. The only agenda is open, honest, and fair elections.
- The League is interracial and non-discriminatory. We want the entire community to be involved.
- Our goal is clear: let every voice be heard, let every vote be honestly counted, and let the balloting process be above reproach.
- Our intent is to hold our leaders responsible for their actions. We want integrity to be rewarded and dishonesty to be punished.
- We have learned from the past. We need to work together for the good of future generations.
- Together we have strength. We need each other.
- West Alabama is one of the most beautiful places I have seen. We are unique. We need to work from within to solve our problems, or we will lose our uniqueness.
- I want the world to know that we care what happens here. This is not some God-forsaken backwater place where we think, “It’s every man for himself and Devil take the hindmost.”
- Voting is important enough to die for, important enough to live for, and important enough to give up time and money to protect. If you don’t believe it, ask your parents and grandparents.
- “Don’t get involved” is not an option.
Sincerely,
Caroline McCord Greensboro, Alabama
