Press

Alabama Public Radio


Mobile, AL


please press:  www.apr.org

ezs note:  I have to say that the Sigma Delta Chi award is the best, bar none.  These intrepid reporters dug up human trafficking from around the state.  They presented a powerful, sobering piece.  For those of us with a particular interest in mind, scroll to about 3/4 of the piece, then read there.  I urge all Alabamians to attend your town or city hall meeting and speak up.
