Pardon us for saying but this is one "Damn Doozy" of a story... And it's gonna take you a while to get through it. Just in case you haven't read it. After several requests of readers asking us to put it on the blog, we all agreed we needed to make it happen. So here you go. You're gonna need some time to get through this one. Ordinarily, we wouldn't put an article this lengthy on the blog...but since so many of you have asked we wanted to honor your request. The article is called Pay Hike & Politics written by Wilson Times staff writer Janet conner-Knox.

Ladies and gentlemen, good evening and welcome to the Annual Meeting of the Wilson Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Today marks the beginning in a change of leadership within the community regarding the NAACP.
