I attended a candidate debate for 5th Ward Council held at North high school.
You and Natalie Johnson-Lee are the candidates that debated. Stunningly,
during a candidate and policy debate, you called Travis Lee, NJL's husband, a

publications they read.

for the most part, remains in the eyes of the beholder. Wheter or not the
trendsetter is pornographic is not, nor should it be the sole context from
which CM Samuels statements on the matter are viewed.
