Our Concerned Citizens for Justice

Our Concerned Citizens for Justice was founded by Rep. Rickey Thompson, who serves as MS House of Representative for District 16 (Lee and Monroe Counties). Rep Thompson mission is helping bring justice to the black communities. Where there has been so much injustice. Rep. Thompson is working on increasing political involvement of community members, ensuring equitable power distribution, and improving the criminal justice system. Criminal justice reform includes a system where punishment is fair, and mental ill individuals are not unfairly prosecuted. This is accomplished through town hall meetings, rallies, public hearings, canvassing, and other convenings to empower and educate the black community of issues that affect daily lives.
