 Greetings 

 

 

  
I pray that this email finds you blessed!                                                                  
                    Atlanta, GA.  A group of leaders from SCLC Chapters and Members announced this morning that they will begin protests outside of the national headquarters at 4pm on Monday, January 25, 2009 to demand that Chairman Raleigh Trammell, Treasurer Spiver Gordon, and their supporters on the SCLC National Board resign.  The two men were reinstated by a Fulton County Superior Court judge on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 because of a technical failure to properly notify every board member in writing of a November 13, 2009 meeting. During that meeting twenty-three (23) board members voted to remove Trammell and Gordon while an investigation was launched to determine whether they had mismanaged organizational funds and whether Trammell had sexually harassed an SCLC employee. The investigation so far has determined that the men appear to have diverted more than $560,000 to themselves and others for personal use. "The investigation began when our General Counsel Dexter Wimbish reported the violations to the National Board of Directors at the October 29, 2009 national board meeting where Dr. Bernice King was elected our next President. He implored the board of directors to take action and a group led by Dr. Sylvia Tucker and President Byron Clay did just that and voted to remove the gentlemen to protect the organization's actions, pending a thorough investigation and audit.  “Clearly the votes to remove them are there and will stand by their side till the end. The court's decision is a temporary setback," stated Rev. Carl Gilliard, President of the Savannah Georgia Coastal SCLC Chapter. The protest comes after a court order allowed a board meeting called by Trammell and Gordon to proceed on the condition they met a quorum.  The attorney representing the group told the Atlanta Journal Constitution that a quorum had been met and the group voted to keep Trammell and Gordon in place. Persons following the meeting indicated that a quorum was not met and that only ten people were in attendance when the meeting began around 10am. "We know there was not a quorum and we hope that it is challenged.  This tyranny must come to an end.  I have been told that the only Board Members who showed up were Trammell, Gordon, Trammell's daughter Cheryl Spencer, Rev. Ruby Reese Moone, Jewel Devereaux, Rev. Curtis Harris, Trammell's enforcer Rev. Wilburt Shanklin, Rev.  Randy Johnson, Rev. H.K. Matthews, Florida State Representative James Bush, Dwight Graves, and Rita Samuels who made the motion to shut down the office in the first place to try and cover up the stealing," stated Keith Silva, President of the Washington, DC SCLC Chapter.  "I am a victim of their felonious acts because these are the same people who came to Washington, D.C. in 2006 and Spiver Gordon left town with a bag of money and I was thrown out of  the organization because I raised questions about how the money was being accounted for," continued Silva.  The group will assemble in front of the SCLC National Headquarters at 4pm on January 25, 2009 and demonstrate until 5pm.  Organizers are reaching out to chapters and members from across the country to fax in letters of support for the removal of Trammell, Gordon, and those board members who voted to keep them in, until a thorough investigation and audit is completed. If you check the court transcript the Judge said he did not want to put the "fox back in the hen house, referring to allegations of mismanaged organizational funds. We have allowed our Vice Chair, President, General Counsel, and Executive Director to take too many hits by themselves.  We have to do exactly as SCLC  Board Member Randall Gaines has done and speak up about these attempts to circumvent the court's order to allow these criminal acts to continue," stated Art Rocker, Florida SCLC State Unit Chairman.  Thank you for supporting our "beloved community", and be blessed!
