A dance troupe from Mexico has been including Lansing on their tour since 2017 - and The Lansing Journal has covered each of their Lansing performances. This year the group will do 14 shows in 13 cities, and Lansing is their second stop, right after Chicago. Mexico en el Corazon will be returning to Fox Pointe on Friday, August 30 - their first evening performance in our village. In preparation for that event, this we...

Full video, with notations: Thornton Township Board Meeting 08/20/24
Просмотров 48 тыс.12 часов назад
Thornton Township Supervisor Tiffany Henyard seems determined to erode the trust of the residents - even residents who are most likely to support her. She sent an email urging people to attend the meeting and make their voices heard. The email gave the wrong time for the meeting (on purpose?). The people showed up anyway, only to be segregated into two different meeting rooms. The people showed...

Pressing Forward with Press Forward and our community
Просмотров 40121 день назад
I love a good play on words, so I think “Press Forward” is a clever name for a movement devoted to supporting local news. Not only does the word “press” evoke the presses that are still an important part of the industry, and the word “forward” implies that we also are moving beyond a printed product, but the idea of pressing forward also suggests that the work is difficult and the results uncer...

This video includes a different clip of appropriately upb...
