PROPOSED LEDE:
THIS PAST WEDNESDAY AT THE TOP OF RUSH
HOUR AROUND 300 RESPONDED TO THE CALL
FROM A NEW COALITION OF COMMUNITY
ORGANIZATIONS TO BLOCK ONE OF THE BUSIEST
INTERSECTION IN NEWARK FOR A MASS MEETING
TO DEMAND AN END TO STREET VIOLENCE AND
JOBS. MAYOR BOOKER WAS REPORTEDLY INVITED
BUT DID NOT APPEAR. THE ACTION WAS THE
SEVENTH IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS, AS NEWARK
RESIDENTS ARE GROWING RESTLESS AT THE
LACK OF ACTION BY THE MAYOR IN ADDRESSING
THEIR PROBLEMS.
