Peter Tucker also reported the following on the on the campaign meeting, on theFightBack.org:

"We live in this city. Many of us are born in this city. It's only fair that we have an opportunity to work and feed our families," Pastor Patrick Walker, President of the Missionary Baptist Ministers' Conference of Washington, D.C., told a gathering at Greater New Hope Baptist Church on Thursday.

Pastor Walker's remarks came just minutes before he and other clergy members led a one-block march to the site of the $950 million CityCenter project in downtown D.C. at 10th and H Streets, NW. Protesters, most of them native Washingtonians, shut down the entrances to the 10-acre construction site, chanting, "Clark Construction's got to go!"
