Our summer college intern class helped them, too, as did filmmaker Jef Judin, JAHSPA member (and now new JFP assistant editor) Lacey McLaughlin and others. But they did most of this themselves, led by Treshika Melvin, who just graduated from Jim Hill.

They are so inspiring! We plan to continue the project year-round should any of you know young people who would like to be involved. Open to any teen in Jackson who is willing to roll up their sleeves and get involved.

Long live the YMP!

Hey all you aspiring filmmakers, I’m a journalism student from Syracuse University, and we’re offering $2,000 in prizes for webisodes exploring young people’s relationship to technology. Check it out: http://www.thewirelesscontest.com

All you have to do is make a 2-3 minute soap-opera style video on how technology has impacted your life, and upload it to http://www.youtube.com/group/youngandthewireless before December 31st, 2009.

Thanks for spreading the word,
Jennifer

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
Izzy: it's not enough to just study something - at some point you have to act. Systematic exclusion can be read as hatred, even when those involved in it do not feel it to be that. This is ...

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
J.T.: Wintrhop, your last sentence "I don't want a small and manageable God. I prefer one that I can't fully understand." bears out that we each have perceptions of God. And, when the ...

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
Izzy: I wouldn't be too sure your church doesn't preach hate if your liturgy is not gender-inclusive. Think about it - is God really a "He" or a "Father"? Those are some images or visions of ...

ladd: A fail-safe principle I've always sworn by: If the Kluckers agree with me about something, I need to rethink it.

[Doyle] From Dixie, With Love
Goldenae: I would truly be ashamed of myself if I looked at life and others the way the some people do. Some folks can not put themselves in another person's shoes to save their lives. It is ...
