Dedication on February 20

NOTE: I have been pleased to see -- and hear about -- the many
TV news reports about the Anne Moody Memorial Highway, a proud achievement of the Anne Moody History Project (AMHP). I first heard about the TV news reports on Sunday
night, February 10, when a friend emailed me to say he’d seen the news reports
on Channel 3 and 4 in Mississippi. Another person told me that her family saw
the news in Houston, Texas. My friends and colleagues at Wilkinson County
Correctional Facility (WCCF), Woodville, Miss., said they saw it several times on
television. And yet another friend sent me an email and reported the news
appeared on radio and TV in his area. The report featured in this blog post appeared on
WJTV Channel 12 News. It can be seen here or by following this link:

CENTREVILLE, Miss.
(WJTV) - Part of a Mississippi Highway will be named for a late
civil rights activist. Lawmakers voted last year to name part of Highway 24 as
the "Anne Moody Memorial Highway." There will be a dedication
ceremony on February 20 in Centreville. That's where Moody grew up. The part of
the highway, that will be renamed after her, runs from Woodville to
Centreville.
