Those that spent their life working to combat inequality, and working to heal the wounds of social injustice, but left us too soon to share in this moment.

My Remembrance goes to Dr. Violet Onyeji

Clik here to view.
She did countless hours of humanitarian works through the Nigerian Society of Fort Wayne Indiana and come election time she could be counted on to get out and support progressive candidates. She was the beloved wife of Benson Onyeji, who gave up his house to three other New Yorkers and myself for 5 days while we did GOTV for the Indiana primary. She was lost to cancer in 2005, So I dedicated my fund raising page on BarackObama.com (HERE.) to her memory, and the memory of all the others who left us too soon.
