The purpose of this thread is for us to discuss our problems whether large or small, near or far and viable solutions and actions to these issues/problems.
I encourage debate and constructive criticism; however I would hope we can leave the bickering and insults for other areas of the Forum where that behavior is encouraged. Whomever provides the issue for discussion and or the resolution for the issue should walk away from the thread knowledgeable.
Ill kick off the thread with an issue of my own and hopefully I can get some insight from people on here and others willing to share their own issues.
Without being too specific or cumbersome, I recently became a board member of my local community civic. My community is largely Black, accounting for 60% of the population. When we hold board meetings within our local to discuss issues in the area, specifically the black side of town, only the older members of the community attend. How can I reach out to the youth of the community to get them to attend and bring awareness of these issues to them.
