Press Release Summary: WARREN BALLENTINE "THE PEOPLE'S ATTORNEY" IS CALLING FOR ALL
AFRICAN AMERICANS TO PARTICIPATE IN A NATIONAL BLACKOUT"

Press Release Body:
WHO: Warren Ballentine "The People's Attorney" and radio "Truth Fighter" is calling
for a National Blackout throughout America, on Friday, November 2, 2007.

WHAT: Attorney Ballentine is calling for a National Blackout that is necessary for
African Americans, and is long over due. Especially with all the present
injustices that are being allowed and accepted in America right now. From the
situation with Mychal Bell and the Jena 6, Genarlow Wilson, Megan Williams, and all
of the nooses being hung all over America lately. Until we have federal legislation
in place regarding these hate crimes, as African Americans we need to band together
to show our "Economic Power" by refusing to spend ANY money that day from fast food
restaurants to gas. More on Jena 6 www.JENA6TV.com.

WHY: As African Americans we spend an estimated 715 billion dollars a year, and if
we were to stop spending for one day that is 2 billion dollars that will not in the
system.However, we ask that you don't make a mad dash to the stores days prior or on
the days following. If the stores have a major increase in sales right before or
right after the Blackout than we will not create the impact we are striving for.

WHEN & Friday, November 2, 2007
WHERE: Nationwide Blackout for ALL African Americans
