Letters to the Editor

Lincoln Daily News welcomes letters of appreciation, information and opinion on matters pertaining to the community. 
 
Controversial issues:
As a community we need to be able to talk openly about matters that affect the quality of our lives. The most effective and least offensive manner to get your point across is to stick to the issue and refrain from commenting on another person's opinion. Letters that deviate from focusing on the issue may be rejected or edited and marked as such.

Letter to the Editor for Diversity and Inclusion Commission

Send a link to a friend  Share

To the editor:

After Monday night’s City Council meeting the D&I Commission asks you, members of the City Council, who created and approved this Commission, to remember that you tasked us to do the following:
The City of Lincoln Diversity & Inclusion Commission connects citizens to resources, promotes community programs and events, and shares concerns and recommendations to the City Council to ensure citizens of Lincoln, IL have a voice as it relates to issues of diversity, inclusion, and equity.

[to top of second column in this letter]

Supporting the Juneteenth and Pride events was the chance to begin this journey of connection, support, and inclusivity.

You had the opportunity to show who we could be as a community and instead you showed who you are, now.

We did our job, now we ask you to do yours!!
Sincerely,

City of Lincoln’s Diversity and Inclusion Commission
