i signed this petition because i feel that over the years every thing that has been allocated to us has been slowly but slowly taken away.
I am aware that when we riot or some gorverment supported organisation say that the negative behaviour of the black youth is due to the lack of oportunity and facilities they then give us some token gesture. When things quiten down they then take it away from us then give it to another minority group that has more financial influence over local goverment policy.

This has been the case historically in birmingham hence we end up with nothing. Considering how long black people we have been established in birmingham i think it is unacceptable that the one major meeting place were our we are able to meet and be entertained by our own is now been taken away from us
