Announcing the "Leadership for Life" Conference
"How can the 'Dream' survive if we murder the children? Every aborted baby is like a slave in the womb of his or her mother. The mother decides his or her fate." - Dr. Alveda C. King, niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., speaks out for the future of the yet unborn.
Berkeley, CA (PRWEB) December 31, 2007 -- "In the ongoing travesty of the debate over whether abortion and infanticide should be condoned, a voice in the wilderness continues to cry out, 'what about the children?'" Sponsored by the Issues4Life Foundation, Dr. Alveda C. King and Dr. Clenard H. Childress, will address leaders in the African-American community and speak out for the future of the yet unborn at the "Leadership for Life" conference in Berkeley, California. Everyone is invited to attend.
The "Leadership for Life" conference will be held Friday, January 18th, 2008 from 2:30 P.M. to 4:30 P.M. at the Progressive M.B.C. of Berkeley, 3301 King Street, Berkeley, California, 94703-2623, where Dr. Earl C. Stuckey, Sr. is Pastor and where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., twice spoke to and rallied the African-American leadership in the Bay Area during the Civil Rights movement.

During the years of the Civil Rights Movement, led by her Uncle, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Alveda's family home was bombed in Birmingham, Alabama. In the heat of the struggle, "Daddy's house was bombed, then in Louisville, Kentucky his church office was bombed. I was also jailed during the open housing movement," Dr. King recalls.
Alveda has continued her long-term work as a civil rights activist, speaking out on issues that face society today. "Perhaps the most compelling issue of all is the life of the unborn," Alveda continues by saying "Faith in God, and the commitment to fulfill His will for our lives -- not faith in government bureaucracy -- is the key to positive action. Have faith in God!" This is the message that Alveda carries to the world.
Dr. Childress is Pastor of the New Calvary Baptist, in Montclair, New Jersey, assistant to The National Director of The Life Education And Resource Network, member of the National Pro-Life Religious Council of Washington, DC, board member of The Center For Bio Ethical Reform, founder of the Pro-life website Blackgenocide.Org, chief organizer of the "Say So" March to the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, DC and author of No Shepherd's Cry. Dr. Childress is joyously married to Regina Childress and has four children: Clenard, Thomas, Tonya and Tia.
