I have secured the email address of the 6th District AME Church in Atlanta, Georgia. It is run by Bishop Reginald Jackson. If you are willing, leave me a reply off this post just stating your name and state. I will forward on to the Bishop as a petition in support of the church who is opposing the S202 Bill.
MaryPat, Has a NATIONAL BOYOTT been called? Which is the umbrella organization that called. Asking because I need to back up who has called it and contact info. Thanks.

Thanks, MaryPat for replying. I don't use Facebook, so will not pursue this link. If anyone has more info on a BOYCOTT, please comment and post me. Thank you.
This is exactly what we want to join. While I would do it, your are the finder, and I whiz, in my opinion, so I suggest you make it an urgent comment now.
I found Bishop Reginald Thomas Jackson of the 6th District AME in Atlanta. He can be emailed. What do you want to say? It would be great if a whole group of us could band together instead of individually show support.
Lynell, I completely agree with your thoughts. I must go out now for a couple of hours. If you would like to do it, you may email or call indicating that you are a member of a group of subscribers to the newsletter of a writer - Professor of American History. A number of subscribers would like know if and how we could support his organization with reference to the Boycott. What does he recommend. That is my thought. I will be back by 6:30 EST. If you go ahead with this, just post if you have any news and about anything I can do. Thank you!
okay. In the meantime, I have posted on this page my (our) desire to reach out to the bishop and for them to reply to my post with their name and state to append to our email.

NATIONAL BOYCOTT OF COCA COLA and HOME DEPOT?! Be sure and tell them why.
Just throwing this in here, MaryPat. Marc Ellis on Twitter: https://twitter.com/marceelias/status/1375287710257008642?s=20
It sounds like he's saying he's in court about this?
Great work. Lynell. He is the best. I couldn't tell if he's heading for court, but that is possible.

Thanks, Penelope, MaryPat, and Kim. We did not receive enough names to file a petition, so we won't be sending one. Just wanted to let you know!

Thanks, Lynell. See my response to your Boycott link. It would be great to link up with the churches if that works from their point of view.
Churches, yes!
