Is there any better way to end the school year than with a visit from THE @angiecthomas?! We had the best time visiting local public schools in Columbus & Starkville with such an amazing Mississippi role model. If y’all haven’t read Nic Blake yet, what are you waiting for??
What an honor for @friendlycitybks to be in the @nytimes! It means a lot to be recognized in this insightful and honest look at traditions and change here in Columbus, Mississippi.
