Louisiana News Americas promise pledges indivisibility and justice for all, yet we are divided by race, class and inequity. The most challenging issues on the streets of our cities are now on display. Instead of looking away, we must agree to face the problems in our justice system head on. We must ask ourselves why this countrys value of African American men and boys is not the same as their counterparts. In order to move forward and to have peace, we must agree that while we are not all at fault, we are all responsible for creating the reconciliation that is required. Together, we must convert this painful moment in our history into a beginning for meaningful change. In New Orleans and in cities across the country, this must happen in word and in deed. ~New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu
