King Jay and Rev. Johnson speak at the Peace, Unity and Justice rally in Greensboro

UPDATE: King Jay, aka Jorge Cornell, is running for Greensboro City Council. www.cornellforcouncil.wordpress.com

On the Saturday following the 2008 Presidential Election, a Peace, Unity, and Justice march and rally was held in Greensboro, North Carolina.

Organizing for the march was focused on a number of issues but came largely in response to police repression of the Almighty Latin King and Queen Nation in Greensboro, who have been working towards a peace agreement between gangs in the city.




Unfortunately the tape ran out before Reverend Johnson finished his speech, in which he called for the Greensboro gang squad to be dismantled due to their constant, unjustified harassment of King Jay and other members of the ALKQN.
