The discussion of social issues and happenings across the South (sometimes the nation). Along with some rants about things such as the media (radio, TV, and internet), music, etc. from a socially progressive yet politically independent perspective.

Thank God! Arrington is not running
Former Birmingham mayor Richard Arrington, Jr. got the hint when all the candidates he and his New Jefferson County Citizens Coalition, realized that they weren't as viable as yesteryear, and said that he isn't going to run for mayor again. Instead, he said that all the 13 candidates running for the 2-year term left by former mayor Larry Langford was going to be filled by the winner of either Dec. 8th special election or its run-off (which is very likely) are more than enough for the variety for the election.
