An Associated Press news reporter called and asked for long-time residents to talk about the 1992 'civil unrest.' I gave him your info - think you're a great voice to say what's here now, and then.
Hey Walter, You're back! Nice video. It would be great if you added it to UniversityParkFamily.com as a blog or video - feel free to add the upcoming testing schedule that I added as a comment to your video here!
Hi Walter. I m currently living in Las Vegas.. but I was born and raised in S. Los Angeles... I've only been here in Vegas bout a year now...so this site keeps me connected to my home community... I really appreciate the pictures you posted... one photographer to another. Please continue to keep posting pictures.... Thanks so much!
Hi Walter! It was great talking to you! Let's get together again soon. Please let me know what is a good time for you. Thanks and have a blessed Sunday.
The Tavis Smiley page didn't include any links at all at first. Still I got no traffic from them.
I was able to place the story in the LA Observed and CurbedLA also picked it up and they sent a few hundred people my way. Do you know where the LABeez traffic came from?
How are you? Just a friendly reminder in case you want to tune in to my BlogTalkRadio/coloredpeople show Thu night 8pm pacific. Our guest is Cherene Snow. Talk to you soon! TM
The Tavis Smiley radio show is going to interview me about the Leimert Park Beat blog - a new way for communities to gather and get news. I'm taking the opportunity to bring them to Leimert Park.
I think that not only locals should shop in Leimert, but we need to let people in Carson and Pasadena that they should experience what we've got. And that when people in Atlanta, Washington, D.C. and Portland visit LA, Leimert Park is a must see of any trip. That's my message - and with an virtual community everyone can see what we have to offer.
Anyway I hopefully will bring them down between 1 and 2:30. Hope you can be there.
