As an organization, The Thurgood Marshall Law Society will occasionally find cause or the need to speak out forcibly on various issues which have an impact either on the legal community or the community-at-large and it's interactions with the justice system. And it is constantly in mind that there is a strong tendancy in the media to either mis-state or take out of context what has actually been said.
It is with these things in mind that we provide the full-text version of all media statements made by, or on behalf of, the Thurgood Marshall Law Society, Inc.
...voter apathy - lack or civic participation - is a weapon of mass destruction. When we do not vote and do not participate in the civic life of our community, we are inflicting wounds on ourselves.
