W hat effect, if any, will the depar
ture of Rev. John Jackson and Herb
Cawthorne have on the leadership in
the Black Community?
by Arnold Pitre
Vera Jackson
Secretary
Marsha Hunt
Service Coordinator
I don't know a lot about either
of the two men, or how much effect
they had on the Black community,
but they seemed to be well known
and respected by the community
people on the whole. It appears
that they will be missed. The lead
ership in our community could be
better, and the aeparture of these
men does not help matters.
They will be missed. Mr. Caw
thorne was a locally raised man,
and that was an advantage. He
knew about some of the problems
in the community. Rev. Jackson
s well respected, both within and
outside the community. He was a
good spokesman for the commu
nity. Our remaining leaders will just
have to "buckle dow n" and work
hard on dealing with our current
problems.
The Urban League of Portland hosted a morning breakfast, Septem
ber 18, 1987, to introduce Dr. Charles Warfield, Associate Professor
at Western Michigan State. The meeting with clergy and commu
nity leaders was an attempt to get community input on the Urban
League of Portland and Portland Public Schools' Parental Involve
ment Initiative at the Whitney Young Learning Center. Seated are
(L-R) Jimi Johnson, Assistant Director, Whitney Young Learning
Center; Deborah Cochran, Director of Education, Urban League of
Portland; and Ray Leary, Interim President, Urban League of Port
land

We are losing two good leaders,
but it should not have such a deva
stating effect on the community,
we have plenty of people with lead
ership qualities, but I don't think we
have the involvement that we
should have to produce good
leaders.
It certainly leaves a void. Both
men are well known. They were
vocal leaders. On the positive side,
it leaves an opportunity to show
that there are others with leader
ship abilities. Rev. Jackson and
Herb Cawthorne were always
sought out for leadership by the
community, because they were long
standing vocal leaders.
