STATIONARY DOORS, THERE IS ANOTHER INTERIOR STATIONARY DOOR THAT OPENS IN THE SAME MANNER. IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOU ENTER
THROUGH THE MAIN ENTRANCE DOORWAYS, YOU WILL BE WITHIN INCHES OF THE SECURITY CHECKPOINT THAT YOU MUST PASS THROUGH TO

Stemming from our convention in April, we will not give up our obligation as leaders within our communities to seek enactment and enforcement of federal, state, and local laws securing and promoting civil rights..”
