Because of the snow the Library was closed on Monday March 2nd, 2009
in the evening and the next HAFUP Discussion on Transitional Housing
was posponed to next Monday March 9th, 2009 at 7pm at the Nussbaum
Meeting Room at Greensboro's Central Public Library. The even is sure
to be attended by many including homeless, representatives of various
community organizations, government, and the media.

By request, the library will be showing the movie, The Vernon Johns
Story again on Monday, March 9 at 4 pm, before dinner.

About this movie:
"James Earl Jones stars as controversial pastor Vernon Johns, one of the
earliest voices of civil rights. In 1948, Johns served as the outspoken
spiritual leader of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery,
Alabama. Incensed at the racial injustice that pervaded the South, he
was determined to fight for equality for all African Americans. His
refusal to accept segregation incited anger amongst local law
enforcement and caused his family to fear for their lives. Johns held
strong to his beliefs and encouraged his congregation to join him. But
the church council deemed him a troublemaker and he was voted out as
pastor...only to be replaced by future civil rights leader, Martin
Luther King, Jr."
