Statement by Mark S. Allen, Chicago Chairman of National Black Wall Street Chicago
"Sad note that Rev. Lewis Flowers made his transition yesterday at the age of 62.
Rev. Flowers was a long time grassroots activist and leader of The Westside Minsters Coalition. In addition to that I worked with Rev Flowers for more than 30 years, most recently with The Monroe Foundation's Community Reinvestment Organizers Project and we served together as Commissioners of the former Chicago School Board Nominating Commission, where Rev Flowers supported me as Vice-Chairman he was always a great local supporter of the local Black Wall Street Black economic empowerment movement. 

A great champion for our people. I mean from the first Black Mayor to the first Black President you could find Rev. Flowers actively and systematically involved!!"
