NEGRO ELECTION DAY/ BLACK PICNIC WILL NOT BE HOSTED BY DOREEN WADE OR SALEM UNITED, INC.
I want to make sure that people understand that the City of Salem denied Salem United, Inc. a permit, we in no way refused to get one. Documents will show, unless Salem United Inc. agreed to a forced partnership, they would not agree to a permit. The City, even with a partnership, would not be contributing any financial contributions to the event, but their name would be on everything.
All our vendors have been informed Salem United Inc cannot have them as vendors for 2025. A live national entertainer and Martin Luther King, III had to be cancelled. The parade, which is obtained by the Salem Police, was also cancelled.
​​
People will still be going down and cooking and hanging out with family, but all activities have been cancelled.

I will not sell out.
Doreen Wade is in a fight to keep the name and brand. Since Negro Election Day Festival was in jeopardy, I trademarked it.
That trademark is not being recognized by the City of Salem.
Put yourself in my shoes, if you came down the street and saw the name of your business on another building, would you say, "Oh, that's okay." "Let them have it."
WHY SHOULD I?
