Thank you to all of our past presidents for their
leadership and commitment to civil rights. Many of the rights and
privileges that we enjoy today are the direct result of their
sacrifices. They helped with the right to vote for people of color. They
helped open the doors of employment and educational opportunities, and
they have fought against abuses in the criminal justice system. We stand
on each of their shoulders as we continue to promote political,
educational, social and economic equality in San Diego.
