A story in Lincolnville

We started out with a story in mind…a story of empowerment and the African-American church. We hadn’t been in Lincolnville very long, though, before we knew that another, much stronger story was there. This story was about a historic community undergoing historic change, experience through the eyes of a young man with a strong sense of history and a stronger love for his community and the people who live there.

Donte speaks of families and businesses, children and churches in this story of the Lincolnville Blues. He’s joined by other voices from those who have seen the community as their historic home, and those who see it as a new place to live.

There are many more stories to tell of Lincolnville and those who call it home — and we look forward to hearing and sharing those stories.

A Post on Paying Journalists

Maybe it’s because I so enjoy the feeling of being paid for my work, but I think a lot about models for journalist’s compensation. I’ve written about some of those thoughts in my personal blog, CF2 Technotes, and invite you to take a look. Feel free to comment either here or there — I’d like to know what you think about the issue.
