We REALLY Need You to Sign The Petition to Make 52nd Str. Africa Town....... it is at 221 South 52nd Str....

And, you may do so at the Afro Centric Store at 221 South 52nd Str. in West Philadelphia.  While you are here, please buy some of the many products such as shampoo --which I have promised the older gentleman I would buy.  [And I Will, but you may have to remind me...] Please tell me how it is and if you like it. If you buy the shampoo, that is.... There are two of the kindest older gentlemen [they are brothers] who run this store.  They REALLY care about the future of Black People and our Black youth and the rest of us. They have been at this stuff, activism and Social Justice work and owning Black stores, a lot longer than I have.  And I've been at it for over 30 years.  So if you call me an ole head, I don't know what that makes them. I want to be respectful, but are they older heads? [Laugh] They are really nice and concerned about our community.  They have the petitions at the store at 221 South 52nd Str.......  It look like this below:
