“…We have to be part of the solution when we see a problem. It takes everyone in a city, we need your help! We are working so hard every day to make DC a great place to live, but whether it’s fighting crime, bettering our schools, or creating opportunity for all, we need the help of everyone. Please become a literacy volunteer, join a local neighborhood crime watch organization, and remember that we are one people, whether we are white, black, Hispanic, male, female, young, old, gay, lesbian, rich, or poor. This city belongs to all of us, and we all have a stake in what is going on in our city, and we all have a duty to get involved and to make a difference. Don’t ever discriminate! Give everyone a chance! Treat everyone as you would want to be treated! Don’t forget to VOTE VOTE VOTE.” — Desi Deschaine, 2003
