Regina Edwards is a black one of 40 years with 6 children that lived in north Minneapolis for the last one 6 years. Regina dies Cancer Pancredatique. The doctors say that they cannot work. 2 out 10 people obtain this cancer but the time it is diagnosed, the this is too last. In the mixture of him all his furnace does not work, his house is cold, and she has not any food in his refrigerator because of his electricity is cut. As we speak, (during this discussion) she gets ready to go to the chemotherapy to Commemorative Hospital of the north. It has anybody not but his girl of 18 years to take care of the brothers or sisters. No parents, no grandparentsae¦person.

Regina was a political activist and worked to the Urban League of bigger Madison and the City of Madison. She worked also for the International Culinary School in Burnsville, Minnesota and has measuring of the Institute OF Technical teaching of Community of Minneapolis in the month of May with a degree in the Culinary Arts. The way of Regina to the education, wealth and the independence stalked in the common sense.

But there is a lot more to the history of Regina. Besides to have his new house stolen by the people that lived there before, after the owner gave it the key without changing the locks the day before thanksgiving, there was an event list that arrived to Regina that she needs to leave go out. If we to allow beginning with the Minneapolis the Urban League. Regina says that she knew where strange things to the Minneapolis the Urban League when the direction was as, "the Pink Panthers," said Mrs Edwards, "These people do not want to address problem otherwise that their pay checks. They crawl about as themselves they are invisible".

Regina said, "I am tired from fight. Social workers to the hospital To Divide 8 - it had anybody not available to the Minneapolis the Urban League to address, help, or to counsel me on what to do and how a mother dying can obtain the assistance for itself and its children in a true time of need". As I speak with his tonight, his girl wants to use the computer to do the duties ae" but Regina says to his girl, "You cannot connect the computer on when the heaters are connected on because the fuse will sink the basement". Regina, not as to enter the basement that flooded this summer and is filled with grinds it. She has 4 of the children sleep in the bed with her to keep hot.

Regina went to the Minneapolis the Urban League to look for the services of assistance and orientation of Dr. Brovada that has a "the boot camp" to the Minneapolis the Urban League that helps families. Because of the list of Regina of problems, Mrs Edwards says, "the IT WAS a laugh; we had as much of continue that they never recalled. I called even when I was in the hospital, always no response".

Regina first was diagnosed with Cancer August 2, 2008 and crossed a fruitless surgery; she looked for the assistance of the Minneapolis the Urban League for her and its children that fell on the deaf ears. The interval that his girl of 15 years took an affection to jump school and leading to the Minneapolis the Urban League. The girl of 15 years of Regina, a fugitive was predtendument welcomed in one of the houses of the men that work MUL. Now it of 15 years is 1 ½ the pregnant months (predtendument) by one of 19 years that said the mother (Regina), "She Is just 15, she can do herself to abort". Mrs Edwards says, "My girl will not abort! These people to the Minneapolis the Urban League that smiles in my face is the even a person in charge of my girl obtaining pregnant. The this is a shame that the janitor to the Minneapolis the Urban League knew that my girl was pregnant before I have did. Where is the process for the responsibility"?

Regina continues to say, "I everyone asked the Minneapolis the Urban League to help me after my money was gone". she asked, "which you program has that I can be a part of to help keeps my family together". The only one a that showed any compassion or caring for towards me was some really pleasant ladies in the office front. The men to the Urban League to include the local ministers that associate with the MUL, Regina says, "I would not trust hole up me when I die". Mrs Edwards talked about a funds that was to be established to help it and the children during this hard time. It was alleged that there were funds collected this never obtained one to Mrs Edwards.

Regina says also, "person on the north (Minneapolis) the needs to be responsible of imports what in the community. They are concerned just of itself. If the Minneapolis the Urban League truly served the people of Minneapolis of the north, we would have more jobs, the better schools, the programs that worked and a different future of mine, that will be finally the death"!

The doctors to the commemorative Monument of the north and the County of Hennepin Centers it Medical says that the cancer that Regina has in some cases can be avoided by the exercise, eat healthy, the nutritious education and a conscience of responsible community of disparities of health in the Black community. With all respect, this should be addressed by the agencies of social services local by accompanies with Universities and local Hospitals for first student-of-the spirit conscience to the diseases that affect the Black community more so than the principal current; in some attributed cases to the unhealthy systems, the lack of sources of food (the food bank) and no money to do the healthy choices. The Social Group of Health to the Minneapolis the Urban League received dollars to address such problems on a monumental level but with the lack of direction and treat the message is deafened to a completely murmur with no measurable results succeed. "The this is not on the part supplied to the Minneapolis the Urban League to increase the conscience of a disease; we need the boots going on the ground to residence to engage the Black community. These people act as they are too good to serve the people" said Mrs Edwards.

Is the university of Partnership aside of minnesota-nord or of UROC really the response Minneapolis of the north needs? The this was almost a year since a University and an Anthropologist brought up on north Minneapolis with the whole grace of a Messiah. Always person has the address the high unemployment rates, no economical stimuli and the parasites feel of a rusty community. Also to have the occasion to meet with Dr. Robert Jones, D. Craig Taylor and Dr. Irma McClurin of the University of Minnesota we always have not a healthy source of distribution of food as a co-operative one on the north side that they talked about with ambitions earlier this year.

The continuous history. The Minneapolis the Urban League lost the key with the community. In an investigation done at random took the corners of Avenue of Penn and the Avenue of Plymouth in front of the Minneapolis the Urban League, 20 ages of people of 18 to 65 were asked two questions:

1. What the Minneapolis does it the League Urban does?

2. Who is the President of the Minneapolis the Urban League?

Not a person knew what arrives in the piece of meeting of real estate on the corners of Penn and the North of Avenue of Plymouth or that the President was. To flow the people had an idea on what the agency should do ae" that is another history entia¨reae¦bienta´t to come.

What is it coming to the spirit is, where the leaders of the community are? Of more, where are the civil leaders of rights? Takes notes, Tuesday, December 09, 2008 a black one of 25 years of Minneapolis named Quincy Smith was tazered to the death by the Police of Minneapolis to 1035 Norths of Avenue of Knoxae¦aucunes organizations Black said a word. The reports alla¨guent that it had a bad heart.

Person deserves to die as that ae" regardless circumstances were.

Last Friday to a community meeting I was asked why I went after the social Black so hard service agencies and why does I do not attack someone "the White people". My response to this person that sits on the Minneapolis the Counsel of Urban League was simple. I said, "I do not obtain thousands of dollars every year of the Minneapolis the Urban League to do the advertising for. I never obtained from dollar of the Confidence of Community of Northway or of NRRC. By the manner ae" did you sign the declaration of Conflict of interests nevertheless"?

"The black ones that work to the agencies of social service in north Minneapolis that put itself in the positions to help people have "the step in top". Not longer fact running it principal tolerates Black organizations that claim stupidity and have no money to complete missions but serves itself to the highest levels, wanting for nothing.

The innocence of not knowing any which continues in the Black community does not fly after today.

There is one Black President!
