Daley recognizes African American clergy are often the strongest leaders, and they have ties to all aspects of the community, Williamson said. And that s what worries Palmer, who in 1983 helped elect Harold Washington the city s first black mayor. Palmer believes many black communities are worse off since Daley took office, placing much of the blame on church leaders. I don t see that Daley s given us anything but grief, he said. So we have a black police chief.
Police brutality is worse.
This is about the use of Daley s power and the ministers greed.
