In Celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day Black Pastors Unite to End Evictions and Further Black Displacement Speculator Greed Resulting in Black Pastor's Arrest Indicative of Final Tearing Apart of San Francisco's Last Remaining Blacks.
Pastor Yul Dorn has been a pillar of San Francisco's Black community, serving as a pastor of a predominantly Black church in the Western Addition; a grief counselor for the City of San Francisco's Department of Public Health dedicated to stopping retaliatory violence and counseling grieving families and as a Chaplain for the San Francisco Sheriff's Department.

WHY: "The San Francisco Black Community is fast approaching a population of 3% because of our battle against predators like Wall Street Banks and real estate speculators trying to take our homes" stated Archbishop Franzo King, of the St. John Coltrane Church, which is also fighting displacement. "Pastor Dorn symbolizes what is good and what is important to protect our Black community. He has not only shouldered the responsibility of shepherding his congregation, but that of his community as well. He has provided comfort to the families in crisis and helped lead the community to fight against injustices. He has stood with us and none of us in the religious community can stand back while this family fights for their very existence in this city. Taking a stand with Pastor Dorn will help protect other Black families."
