  confronted with the fierce urgency of now. 
  In this unfolding conundrum of life and history there is such a thing
  as being too late.  Procrastination is still the thief of time.  Life often leaves us standing bare, naked
  and dejected with a lost opportunity. 
  This may well be mankind’s last chance to choose between chaos or
  community.”

   STATEMENT FROM THE
  AFRICAN COMMUNITIES  PUBLIC HEALTH COALITION REGARDING THE RECENT RACIST
  COMMENTS PUBLISHED BY THE LA TIMES 
  The  African Communities  Public Health
  Coalition supports the LA Times and its Editorial Board for their
  journalistic courage and fortitude in Revealing and Publishing the Racist
  Comments and diatribe engendered by L.A. City Council President and other representatives of
  the Council. 
  These racist comments neither reflect our
  positive working relationship with The Latino community, nor support the
  direction and trajectory of our race relations in the entire country as a
  whole, and in the County of Los Angeles in particular. These racist remarks
  deter us from the progress we have made thus far in the area of race
  relations and have no place in our contemporary discussions and epoch and
  must be strongly discouraged.
