MEDIA ADVISORY

WARREN BALLENTINE "THE PEOPLE’S ATTORNEY" IS CALLING FOR ALL AFRICAN AMERICANS TO PARTICIPATE IN A NATIONAL BLACKOUT"

WHO: Warren Ballentine "The People’s Attorney" and radio Truth Fighter is calling for
National Blackout throughout America.

WHAT: Warren is calling for a National Blackout that is necessary for African Americans, and is long over due. Especially with all the present injustices that are being allowed and accepted in America right now. From the situation with Mychal Bell and the Jena 6, Genarlow Wilson, Megan Williams, and all of the nooses being hung all of America lately. Until we have federal legislation regarding hate crimes as African Americans we need to band together to show our "Economic Power" by refusing to spend ANY money from fast food restaurants to gas.

WHY: As African Americans we spend an estimated 715 billion dollars a year, and if we were to stop spending for one day that is 2 billion dollar that will not in the system. However we ask that you don’t make a mad dash to the stores days prior or the days following. If the stores have a major increase in sales right before or right after the Blackout than we will create the impact we need.

WHEN: Friday, November 2, 2007 (again, why 2 days after commercial month end?)

WHERE: Nationwide Blackout for ALL African Americans

    Blackout?!! Is it short for "Blacks Get Out"? I'm a VERY simple man, so I'll keep it simple: What is the day of the week in which LESS money is exchanged?...Monday. More people miss work on Mondays, kids miss school more on Mondays. Why do they miss so much time off on Mondays? I'm glad you asked. They are hung over from the weekend before.

    A Blackout will leave a void. Not in America but in the Black Community. You can't try to ASSimulate and be pro Black at the same time. Is the money not being spent on that day going to be collected to establish a Black economic power base? I don't mean a Black Ma and Pop storefront. I'm talking about an "African Town". A place without "white validation". Are the CNN sponsors the Puppet Master behind the Ballentine Blackout?

    Is Mista Warren Ballentine aka Crouching Tiger Hidden Agenda?
