Jones, Atty. Douglas M. Grimes and Atty. Howard Manning Jr., for a terrible period of impasse among friends...the very worst type of pain & anguish for all family and friends affected included and inherited without mercy nor time out to recuperate in the high stakes high pressure results of litigation. ... The spoils of courting the copyright infringement questions of controversy, while in the belly of the beast of the media driven outgrowth of a celebrity King and Pulpier trial by fire. Your father is the never to be detoured man that won the hearts and minds of a people unskilled in politics, ununified in organizational leadership, a fledging people but much lacking the cohesiveness necessary to forge bolt entry into a empty room without a floor nor door let alone a roof to end to the pain of the soon to be falling APARTS reign of defacto segregation...a villainous supremacy of race, creed, color, gender and ignorance allowing WHITES ONLY.. And most certainly not be allow US in the WHITE HOUSE...we of the sunny hue were allowed entrance and EXIT ONLY thru one door...that of the cubbyhole entry to the straw man’s house of Uncle Toms American Neo Log Cabin, where only the head scratching, jig- boo- dancing harmless neo - colonial caretaker pawn’s low level Negros de-ascend to MASSAS PAWN BROKER POWER OF ATTORNEY SLUMLORD GENTRIFICATION governess..But ONLY still were unwelcomely comely welcomed with no actual power of change...Only the house broken need apply for prominent, permanent realistic SHORT TERM employment....certainly not ... A MAYORAL TENURE OF 20 YEARS! Your father, The Honorable Mayor of the City of Gary, the former Mayor of Gary...ATT: RICHARD GORDON HATCHER.

To Arms THAT TODAY 2014 IS A MUST CALL TO ALMS FOR UNBAN INNER-CITY SELF SUFFIENCY AND LEVEL PLAYING FIELD....THIS TASK HE SOUGHT TO FULFILL IN BUILDING THE ONLY CIVIC INFRASTRUCTURE TO BE BUILT IN THE HISTORY OF GARY INDIANA OVER THE LAST 50 YEARS....and he being one of the very first soldiers in the Drum line, who had the moxie, the season and SEIZED TAKEN BY FORCE OF BALLOT BOX to precieve the winds of war that blew the international civil and human rights movements signs of the times as your father RICHARD GORDON HATCHER heeded and responded to the beat of the Ziethigists powerful James Brown and Michael Jackson Soul Music sound track to life song of the fledgling unpopular Civil Rights Movement. Many people have not had the opportunity to know your father in times of trial as well as I have been blessed... even if you dont remember The Very First Concert at the DOWN TOWN GENESIS CONVENTION CENTER...A FUND RAISER FOR CITY JUDGE DOUG GRIMES AND STATE REP. CAROL MOSLEY WAS ACTUALLY HEADED UP BY #TEAM GEORGE LANDER, REYNAUD D.

He RGH dared to attempt the impossible behemoth daunting task.. TO REBUILD THE CITY OF THE CENTURY GARY INDIANA BOTTOM UP / TOP DOWN INCLUDING THE MOST ADVANCED WATER TREATMENT FACLITY IN THE WHOLE STATE OF INDIANA; TO BUILDING COMPREHENSIVE SENIOR HOUSEINGS. HE EVEN FUNDED THE CONVERTING THE HISTORIC GARY HOTEL INTO SUCH..BUT HAVE NO DOUBT THAT He faced a tremendously daring and very dangerous vocational hazard of the trade of seeking helmsman ship of a historic Steeltown known for iron clad racial isolation and iron fisted enforcement of organizational economic and financial demoralizing of the mass citizenry populous by red lining northern racial polarization BY THE PENCIL CONTROL OF URBAN COMMUNITY CAPITAL FORMATION as entrenched as the Southern plantation systems waist deep boots wading in post reconstruction segregation. Yeah, Gary was for sure a cornucopia of ethnic divisions running ravenously cold and rapid and as unopposed as thee “water fountains of Selma or Birmingham, Alabama..... But he never gave up nor gave in to the mediocrity of pacifists ideals that sway back and forth between “go along to get along compromise of courage to WE SHALL OVERCOME and fear NOT of THE CERTAIN consequence of and for rocking the boat ....that so many us had become accustom to settled for before the voices Kennedys, Malcolm X, Gandhi and Martin..And your fathers voice Richard G. Hatcher “were heard at the height of shipping out of Black Nation of young boys of the best and brightest prime of aged made in the Image of the Ancient of the Ages and harping hip dope smoking grassroots white hippiesters to Viet Nam during the torrid undeclared WAR of 1960s.

He nearly alone in a nation of unlawful ungodly uncharted clandestine organized oppositions saw the severed skewed unseeable to many vision of a new All America freedomdreamlandscape that he soon helped in becoming the lynchpin in transforming a cloud at best into the personification of the bold New Martinus March of MARTINS All American DREAM...be it however so painful. .In order to know where you are going you must remember with sure accuracy. .from where you have if America is to TRULY its TRUE..That someday this whole wide world SHALL OVERCOME...we shall overcome someday...In the International Home of Tried True Freedom and Democracy found to live a life filled with our Love for all mankind and ever so consequential to the cause of World Peace found to the heart and soul of a nation state of the great mountain that the builders rejected but now 2014 ever living invested the price of hope from great to small fully alive in...The Capstone of the hearts of the plurality of our many cut out of tired hungry huddled masses of the worlds both rich and poor and of every conceivable status and every origin and hue of the Soul peoples of the New Jerusalem of these United States of America??? AINT IT FUNNY THE MORE THINGS CHANGE THE MORE THEY STAY THE SAME...AS 2014 TODAY WE ARE FACE WITH THE ADVENT OF THE SECOND CIVIL AND HUMAN RIGHTS MOVEMENT With Ragen Hatcher.
