Florida New Majority and The Miami Worker's Center

Since my most recent visit to Liberty City and Overtown I have been following two groups that are building a strong presence there.

The following is copied from the "About Us" page of the Florida New Majority (FNM)

"Founded in 2009, FNM overcomes the history of racism and division in the Sunshine State.

"By building common cause among diverse communities we are expanding democracy and developing the leadership of underrepresented communities. We are shifting the role of government away from being a pocketbook for corporate interest, to supporting the well-being of all Floridians."

The Miami Worker's Center is headquartered at the corner of MLK Blvd and 7th Avenue in Liberty City. There is a block party on Saturday, October 23rd, 2010 that sounds like a fun event.

Both of the above groups have e-newsletters that you can subscribe to on their web pages. I am confident that I will be posting quite a few more events and campaigns that these groups are involved with.
