The righteous ministers, because they give information to the people to help them make necessary adjustments to their lives. |

I’m a leader. When you have people who look up to you, you’re a leader. Anybody can be a leader.

Truthfully, I think it’s the parents who actually care where their kids are and what they’re doing. Parents who stand up against violence in our city.

The leaders in the community are the people who are responsive to the needs of the people on a consistent basis. People like Chuck Turner, Charles Yancey, Sen. [Dianne] Wilkerson, Mel King. Folks who have been here for the community time and time again. |

To be honest, I think the pastors hold the most weight around here. Their opinions go far with the people they’re talking to. |
