Dallas Justice Now Names Adekoye Adams Head of Outreach
Dallas, TX - June 28, 2023 - Dallas Justice Now, an advocacy group committed to creating a just society for Black residents in Dallas, is overjoyed to welcome Adekoye Adams as our new Head of Outreach.
Mr. Adams will be deeply engaged with Dallas leaders to show them the realities the black community in Dallas community faces and the solutions an overwhelming majority favor.
Mr. Adams had the following comment on his appointment:
“As I transition to making Dallas my new home, I am keenly attuned to the aspirations of its Black residents for equality and fairness. The unfortunate reality of children being confined to struggling schools is unacceptable. We hunger for, and wholly deserve, the same educational privileges afforded to our wealthy counterparts. There is also a need to improve our relationship with law enforcement. We yearn for safer neighborhoods and yearn equally for a more understanding, respectful engagement with those charged to protect us. It’s not just about seeking justice, it’s about fostering mutual respect with law enforcement that serves our community with integrity. Finally, we are entitled to fair access to capital to nurture and grow businesses free from prejudice, with the reassurance that injustices against us will not go unnoticed or unaddressed. I fervently believe that a sense of security, economic prosperity, and self-ownership are interwoven. I eagerly anticipate amplifying this message as I commence my journey with DJN in Dallas.”
Mr. Adams is particularly enthusiastic about shining a spotlight on Black-owned businesses in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. He believes these businesses are the cornerstone of economic empowerment and diversity within our community. Mr. Adams is eager to leverage his new role at DJN to amplify the voices of these entrepreneurs, showcasing their stories, achievements, and the remarkable products and services they offer. He views this as a crucial component of his work, as it contributes to fostering a thriving and inclusive local economy. Through his multimedia storytelling, Mr. Adams aims to connect these businesses with a wider audience, driving both awareness and support towards these vital community assets.
Furthermore, as our Outreach Lead, Mr. Adams will employ his formidable networking skills to forge and fortify partnerships that will bolster DJN’s mission. He looks forward to engaging with teachers, administrators and Board Members and Councilmen in order to give a glimpse to the road ahead for educational freedom and opportunity. His work will embody our relentless pursuit of educational freedom, business development, and safer streets, all while establishing crucial relationships that underpin these initiatives.
We are thrilled to welcome Adekoye Adams to the DJN family and look forward to the profound narratives he will weave, the meaningful relationships he will cultivate, and the indelible impact he will have on our community. His inclusion signals our unwavering commitment to fostering a more inclusive, prosperous, and secure Dallas.
