4WARD TO THE FUTURE
Power is the Abilty to Change the Rules
Money isn't power. It's a door to power. So is the ballot box. Think about it: If your vote wasn't the key to power, then why are billions spent nationwide to keep you from voting? People with money promote money as power. But what about the 98% of us who don't have money with a capital "M"? Are we power-less? ------Only if we make that choice.
Reclam Ward 4 (RW4) was founded by a diverse group of residents from Greater Buckeye. Our guiding prnciple was what if we, the people, reclaimed our power? What would that look like in Ward 4? The state? The nation? Our mission is to connect the army of resident leaders throughout Ward 4 to help turn out the vote, to build a political power base and to hold our eleted offcials accountable to the voters. Power is the ability to change the rules. Together, we got this: Block by Block!
(This is an image of a typical Cleveland City Council meeting in Council Chambes. Notice their backs are turned to the voters and there is no public comment or quetions period. Nor ars spectators allowed to hold upo signs, wih I am pleased to say can't ofte be controlled.)
