We, are a coalition of Black Alton natives who remain civically engaged in our hometown community, support Brant Walker for Mayor and Tammy Smith for Alderwoman.
Under Walker’s leadership downtown Alton is no longer ravaged by 100 year floods, city streets are being paved, home ownership assistance programs have helped 200 Altonians achieve the dream of home ownership, Pre covid unemployment was at a very respectable 4%, Killion Park (Salu) facilities have been improved for our youth, and diversity and inclusion at city hall is higher than that of all previous Alton mayors combined. Also, the list of Mayor Walker’s Community Policing programs is far too numerous to mention here.
