"Let's send Malik Rahim to the US House of Representatives!"

New Orleans District 2 in a special election on December 6th.



Under Malik's leadership, the Common Ground Collective opened the first
free health clinic in the city of New Orleans, helped reopen schools,
gutted over 3,000 homes that needed repair in the Ninth Ward of New
Orleans, and provided direct services to nearly 200,000 returning
residents. He is former Black Panther, co-founder -of the anti-death
penalty group "Pilgrimage for Life," with Sister Helen Prejean. On
November 12, Malik Rahim received the Thomas Merton
Award(http://www.thomasmertoncenter.org
