Stop The DOLLAR TREE IN BRONZEVILLE Petition: Signature List Feed http://www.gopetition.com/signatures/stop-the-dollar-tree-in-bronzeville.html Online petition signatures en-us Wed, 10 Jun 2026 02:15 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Miss Jacqueline Abernathy [Signature #158] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/15907422?utm_medium=rss I fee that it is totally unfair and inexcusable for them to put a Dollar Tree in the place of what was planned as MLK Supermarket. I agree that the supermarket should immediately replace Dollar Tree. They can put Dollar Tree at a MidTown district of businesses on 54th & Capitol Dr.... I once lived in the Bronzeville area since 1959. I attended Lee Street School before the construction of the highway came through. I used to walk right across 6th & Meinecke up to 9th where Lee Street school is on the corner. I just feel that we need to get this going and make it happen......!!!!!!!

Stop treating our people like second class citizens who don't deserve to be treated fairly and with respect in this city. We are hard working tax paying citizens, we are not all receiving government support and in most cases not even as many as there are of other nationalities in this state, look it up! We want good paying solid businesses re-building our communities not discount stores. Your disrespect is feeding continued disrespect within the community due to lack of family supporting jobs and reasons for having pride in our neighborhoods. It's time to step up Milwaukee Politicians black and every other nationality and do what's right for the inner cities growth. If you're concerned about theft, then invest money in making sure thefts are kept to a minimum at levels acceptable in the suburbs because you can't tell me other races don't steal...we all know better then that. Stop This it's getting old and we're getting tired.
