ARLINGTON -- The Arlington police shooting of Christian Taylor has drawn the attention of community groups planning to attend the Million Man March in Washington D.C. this fall for a milestone anniversary.

A small group met at Althea Temple Church in Fort Worth Thursday morning to talk about its plans for the 20th anniversary commemoration on Oct. 10. The theme is "Justice or Else" and will address issues of poverty, racism and police brutality.

Lee Muhammad, student minister at Muhammad Mosque #52, said the shooting death of 19-year-old Taylor last week by a rookie Arlington police officer has once again put the spotlight on police officers' use of deadly force.

Taylor was captured on surveillance video behaving erratically and damaging property at an Arlington car dealership. Police said Officer Brad Miller confronted and shot the unarmed student athlete. Miller was fired this week, but Muhammad said that is still not enough.

"You have the killer of Trayvon Martin still walking around free," he said. "The killer of Eric Garner is still free. If it was murder, he should be charged with that." more http://www.wfaa.com/story/news/2015/08/13/police-brutality-activism-community-race/31638947/

taking control over our kids and seeing and brining them up the right way

When Tim Cunningham was faced with the choice between the football field or the musical stage, lucky for us, he chose the latter. Having played the saxophone for over half his life, Tim spent his college years at Michigan State splitting his time between playing defense and playing music. And although a football scholarship saw him through school, his passion for the sax has carried him well beyond, as he passed up an NFL contract and eventually pursued a career in music.

For decades the words "smooth , sultry, cool & funky" have been used to describe Tim's high energy and emotional stage show as his sexy blend of smooth jazz and soulful R&B connects with people of all ages, races and genres of music. This unique and versatile style has earned Tim the pleasure of opening for such jazz greats as Dave Koz, Norman Brown, Chick Corea, The Yellow Jackets, Brian Culbertson, Winton Marsalis and George Benson.

Signed to Atlantic Records in 1996 his first major label release, "Right Turn Only"  featured  the efforts of Will Downing, Brian Culbertson, Kevin Whalum, and Bobby Lyle. Tim's newest project, the eagerly anticipated "Tim Cunningham Live" album, where he covers some of his favorite songs, was released Aug 18, 2012.

Tim credits his mother and his strong Christian beliefs for  keeping him grounded as he strikes that delicate balance between the world of music and that of family man with his 3 children and wife of 20 years, all whom he has written and named songs for on past CDs. This approachable and down to earth quality is what endears Tim to his fan base...and his gift to touch their hearts with his music is what keeps 'em  comin' back for more!
