    logo_leagueofwomenvotersSedona AZ (November 30, 2015) – The League of Women Voters Greater Verde Valley is launching a political book club as part of the membership offerings. League members are probably among the most active “political junkies” in the area and getting together to discuss issues and politics is part of League DNA. With 2016 such an exciting election year, books can add another dimension and focus to political conversations. 

    20151130_selfievoteThe first discussion will be about a 2015 book called “The Selfie Vote: Where Millennials are Leading America” by Kristen Soltis Anderson. Anderson been interviewed on a number of shows and there is much to be learned from her book about the future of politics and the impact of millennials  for members of all political parties.  While Kristen herself is a Republican and the LWV is non partisan as it relates to candidates,  the League does take a stand on issues. “Messaging” to the right audience is as important to the League as it is to the political parties. Understanding the millennial generation of voters is key to League activities in voter registration and education no matter what party members may affiliate with.
     
    The public is invited to join the League and participate in the first book club discussion on Saturday January 16, 1-3PM at a residence in West Sedona. For information about joining the League and participating in the Political Book Club,  contact Barbara Litrell, President of the local League chapter, blitrell@aol.com or 649-0135.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
