NAACP, others seek sit-down with McCrory--
Liberal Laura
Leslie amplifies (as if he needs it) Rev. Barber's phony call to 'sit down'
with governor to discuss voter ID bill (or else)... The 'Pat McCrory Promise Trackers' at WRAL leave unchallenged
Barber's lie that 80 percent of citizens think voter ID 'attacks' minorities...
RALEIGH,
N.C. — The group behind the so-called "Moral Monday" protests
has requested a meeting with Gov. Pat McCrory about the elections changes bill.
State NAACP President Rev. William
Barber asked McCrory in a letter last Thursday to
veto House Bill 589, the elections omnibus that includes voter identification
requirements and host of other major changes to state voting and campaign laws.
"We understand you are presently
considering the bill, to make what will be a historic decision to sign or veto
it," Barber writes in the letter "As you know, we and perhaps 80
percent of North Carolina voters believe it to be one of the most restrictive
and regressive attacks on minority, elderly and young people's voting rights
seen in this nation since the end of Reconstruction and the implementation of
Jim Crow at the turn

Protest packs Asheville
Moral Monday rally draws at least 5,000
ASHEVILLE —
The Rev. William J. Barber II brought Moral Monday to the mountains, and the
grass-roots political protest turned into one of the largest demonstrations
here in recent memory.
Carrying
signs, singing songs and cheering for speakers, thousands of protesters rallied
downtown Monday for the first Moral Monday outside Raleigh, where Barber,
president of the state chapter of the NAACP, has led 13 weeks of protests over
Republican-backed legislation.
Asheville
police Sgt. Dave Romick estimated well more than 5,000 people attended the
rally, which crowded Roger McGuire Green in Pack Square Park in front of City
Hall.

Lady Liberty 1885: MoMoMo: The Moral Monday Concert Series
Moral Mondays have vacated the NC General Assembly grounds in
search of a new venue to whine to and whine they did – or rather sing. Singing,
I use that term loosely here, is what took up the bulk of the rally. Perhaps
they were lacking in the speaker department. They did manage to dig up a
gentleman named Bacilio Castro who spoke only Spanish and had to have his
speech translated. Funny thing, I think I’ve seen him before at another event
and he spoke
English then.
