SCLC’s People’s Achievement Festival Set For June 3-6 In Atlanta The Metro Atlanta Chapter of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) under the leadership of Rev. Hosea L. Williams, is holding its First Annual “PEOPLE’S ACHIEVEMENT FESTIVAL” June 3rd through June 6th in Atlanta. The theme of the festival is “Eliminate poverty through mind power.” The festival is designed to be as large as Black Expo in Chicago, but will have a much more year-round positive effect on the problems that are destroying our cities. SCLC will not be praising people for being poor, but will be praising those, who inspite of being poor, have been able to make it for themselves. Due to the Festival’s potential to raise the economic conscious level of the poor, and to offset that awful welfare mentality that is destroying the very foundation on which America was founded, SCLC officers have personally discussed the Festival with business and community leaders, including Dr. Ralph David Abernathy and Julian Bond and everyone of them agreed the program is relevant and said they would support it in some way. The four-day Festival, which is being held at a number of Atlanta locations, including the Georgia World Congress Center, SCLC’s Headquarters and the OMNI, will feature activities for the entire family. The main event of the Festival is the Poor Man/Rich Man Banquet on June 3rd. Rev. Ike is the honored guest and deliver the main address from the topic “BE WHAT YOU WANT TO BE.” Also during the four-day Festival is an all-day FREE CARNIVAL, the “People’s Survival Forum,” a Saturday night ROCK CONCERT at the OMNI, the “People’s Public Auction with all items beginning at sl, a city-wide multiracial TRUE RELIGIOUS REVIVAL Service, and the “PEOPLE’S CULTURAL HOUR” which will include SCLC’s 300 voice choir. . Revemed Williams says, “Unlike most programs that generate funds, the ending of our Festival is truly the beginning of several “SELF-HELP” programs that will have a lasting, positive impact upon the problems that are destroying our cities.” The self-help programs that follow the Festival are designed to become self- ststaining in time. None of the programs will need continuous funding. Rev. Hosea L. Williams governmental or private. “That would just be another form of welfare,” states Rev. Williams. SCLC in the past has supported many programs to help the poor in Atlanta help themselves. Proceeds from the Festival, which will be handled by a national accounting firm located in Atlanta, wfll go toward financing current programs as well as to lanuch new SCLC social programs. Following is a partial list of programs the Festival will help fund: Cultural Development Center, Ex-Offender Rehabilitation Program, 24-Hour Day Care center. Nutrition Kitchen, Clothing Center and a life Black Theater.
