Pastors Seek Calm

November 25th, 2014 by Mike Vasilinda

Pastors from the National Action Network today called on Black Floridians to remain calm in the face of Ferguson, Missouri. In calling for peaceful protests and a dialogue with police, The Reverend RB Holmes called for law enforcement to be respected.

“Violence has never worked. Violence is not the answer. This is a comprehensive issue of distrust of police officers. We have to continue to work toward strengthening community and police relationships” says Holmes.

The pastors are also calling for more counseling, and the development of mental health programs, as well as more social services to ward off poverty.
