KFTC makes the front page of the Bowling Green Daily News
Yesterday's editions of the Bowling Green Daily News had a very favorable article on its front page covering the possibly creation of a new Warren County Chapter of KFTC. Jody Richards had better watch out, now that KFTC is organizing in his district!
The need for a group like KFTC hit home for [Dana Beasley] Brown last week, when she attended Monday's Summer Stroll in the Westside-St. Joseph neighborhood. She noticed some residents sitting on their porch, not joining in the stroll, and wondered why the caravan of city officials and other neighbors didn't stop to chat. Brown said she understands that a Summer Stroll invites all residents to come along, but not everyone has a working-class, 9-to-5 family life.
“If you're coming from a low-income community, you're exhausted, you have kids to get ready for bed,” she said. “To take that time will be a lot harder for you. When you're living in a low-income neighborhood, you don't feel like you have a voice at all. ... Any step you move toward (government officials) is not going to make a difference because you feel like you don't have a voice and you're just trapped where you are.”
