Clippings of the coverage
#AnneMoody
Note: The
Woodville Republican (Woodville, Miss.) published two stories about Anne Moody
leading up to the Anne Moody Celebration that was held on her birthday, Sept.
15, 2017. The event, the first of its kind, was held at 12 p.m. in her hometown
of Centreville, Miss.
The first piece, “Ann
Moody Day Celebration set in Centreville on Friday, Sept. 15,” ran in the paper
on Thursday, Aug. 31, 2017. It extends an invitation to the public to come and
participate in the ceremony. The second story, "Centreville to name street in honor of Anne Moody,” appeared on Thursday, Sept.
14, 2017. I was happy to see both stories on the front page.
We are grateful to Editor
and Publisher Andy Lewis for his coverage of this historic event. It is always
good when a hometown paper provides coverage of important people and events in
the local area. – Roscoe Barnes III, Chairman, Anne Moody History Project
