League's "Campaign Against Violence" mobilizes against anti-youth initiative at local mall
As of early April (2007), Milwaukee's Mayfair mall wasn't letting young people in by themselves without government issued ids. They say they want the mall to be "family friendly" but the League's Milwaukee affiliate -- the Campaign Against Violence -- knows it's really just haterism.
"It's like adults don't get. We cruise because there is nothing to. We go to the mall because it's the last safe place for us to go," says 18 year-old Lanisha Colfax. "If people were really concerned about the violence, they would provide opportunities for us. But I really think adults don't want to listen to us."
