Honoring Glenn Chavis

Columnist Glenn Chavis has written his 200th "weekly" column for us. (More about him here.)

In recognition, his first editor, Ed Williams, and his current editor, Cindy Loman, created a mock front page for Glenn that, in keeping with newspaper tradition, makes fun of as many people as possible. So I won't reprint it. It does include some Glennisms, though.

We can't depend on others to write about our heritage.

Just because it wasn't around when you were growing up, doesn't mean it never existed.

I never will understand why people need and refer to certain celebrities who they have never met as role models

I use the terms colored, Negro, and black in every story that I write. It makes no sense to use African American when talking about something that happened in the 1870s.

We are looking forward to 200 more.
