Thank you, Leroy
I applaud Leroy Brooks on his latest endeavor to improve the condition of the black community.
I have been dismayed by some of his actions and outbursts in the past but have always known he was an intelligent individual who had a lot of potential to make improvements in Lowndes County.
I think this is an excellent use of his talents and insights.
He may be the only public figure that would be allowed to lay it on the line as he did. I hope people will listen and follow his guidance.
Thank you Leroy.
