May God bless you each as he blesses the memory of this great man who suffered so much. Mona (and your partners and teachers)

I congratulate you - young people like you are living your lives the same way that Clyd Kennard did: with integrity, purpose and optimism. May God bless you each as he blesses the memory of this great man who suffered so much.

I just wanted to personally thank you for helping us spread the word about Mr. Kennard. We sincerely hope that Gov. Barbour will give Mr. Kennard what he deserves. Also Lily, thank you so much for compliment. Mona Ghadiri Hi, I am one of the students working on the Clyde Kennard project.

Yes, I agree with your point regarding teachers and journalists as agents of social change and, in looking over my post, I may indeed have mischaracterized who was pulling the levers and who was doing implementation. Although it's often the lawyers driving, it's not always, and this might be an excellent example of the latter.

Don't forget though that journalists and high school teachers are often ALSO cultural creatives, trying in their own small way to push society forwards on issues they, for whatever reason, haven't been willing to deal with yet. I think of the Boston Globe's award-winning series on pedophile priests, which ushered in a world of change, when combined with efforts by savvy, heartsy lawyers. And teachers if they're not involved in "doing" themselves, as the old joke goes, can still fire up their students about causes near and dear to their hearts. Anyway, having been both a journalist and a high school teacher, I just wanted to give them their "due" as frequently overlooked agents of social change ;-) LOVE YOUR BLOG!!! Love how it's written for the smart regular peep, too, to educate them (as in, me) not just fellow lawyers. It rocks! :-) Keep up the good work... Fantastic story, as per usual.
