Boston activists press bid to secede and study new Mandela city
In Boston a group led by Sadiki Kambon seeks to carve a black inner-city district into a separate city named for Nelson Mandela. A non-binding referendum in one district on Nov 6 would authorize a feasibility study with hopes for a 1992 binding vote and a 1994 secession, while opponents warn of financial collapse and loss of the downtown tax base.
