Senator Parker Remembers Civil Rights and Media Legend Percy Sutton
“The passing of Mr. Percy Sutton is a tragic loss for our nation. Not only have we lost one of the great icons of American Politics, but we have also lost a man who dedicated his life to ensure that everyone is afforded the same rights and opportunities.”
“Percy Sutton inspired millions of African Americans all over the world and fought with great courage for many righteous causes. He lent his powerful voice to the people in Harlem and to those who needed it the most.”
“As we grieve his loss and remember his leadership and service, we send our thoughts and prayers to the entire Sutton family.”
