We've reached a milestone; Post Number 500

It's hard to believe but this is my 500th post... We started this blog in 2007 to provide a means of communicating issues and items of interest to our local community. Since then, it has grown considerably, winning two National NAACP Awards and finding readership all around the world. The blog has been quoted or republished in numerous newspapers and magazines around the country, and we have standing syndication agreements in Florida, Michigan, and Kansas.

Thank you to all of you who stop by check on us. We hope that we have been informative, thorough, and timely with the information we have presented. And we will continue to bring you information and insights on issues facing our community from a grass roots activist perspective...
