TODAY’S FOCUSHere are multiple reasons to approve MARTA referendum
By J. Michael Levengood
LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. | The Gwinnett transit referendum is about one thing – guaranteeing the future success of our great county. Gwinnett County has seen impressive growth over the last 30 years that is likely to continue. It is time for us to build a transportation system that matches the needs of a growing county. Constant traffic gridlock is jeopardizing the long-term vitality of Gwinnett. We have tens of thousands of people working throughout the county and metro Atlanta who would benefit from efficient alternatives to automobile travel, such as a heavy rail line, bus rapid transit, and expanded local bus service.
Levengood
Expanding access to transit and offering new transit options are essential to making Gwinnett County a better place to live, work, and raise a family. It will make our lives easier, ensure smarter growth, ease congestion, and make us more competitive with other counties in attracting high-wage jobs. It will offer more independence and inclusivity for our seniors and disabled residents. It will offer greater access to education and entertainment, which helps keep millennials in Gwinnett. This referendum gives us a once-in-a-generation opportunity to invest in ourselves. Every penny we raise goes right back into Gwinnett.
The truth is, we simply have way too many cars on the road. We need more options. Long commute times can easily drain another 40 hours a month from a person’s life. On March 19th, we have the power to begin changing that. We have a responsibility to take advantage of this opportunity and ensure Gwinnett is as connected as possible for our children, their children, and every generation after us. This is our chance to make history and to leave a legacy of which we can be proud!
Transit expansion in Gwinnett would mean significant reductions in traffic congestion by taking thousands of cars off the road.- Bus service would be upgraded and expanded to include a new bus rapid transit system and more stations, which would significantly increase mobility.
- The money raised through this one-penny sales tax will be spent exclusively on Gwinnett County and Gwinnett transit projects.
- Major projects would have to be approved by the Gwinnett Commission.
- This proposal would bring rail service to Gwinnett, which has proven vital to attracting new residents and businesses.
- Transit expansion would create thousands of jobs both immediately through new construction projects and long-term as a result of increased economic growth.
- Passing this March 19 referendum would increase access to the community for elderly and disabled residents who are unable to rely on cars.
- This is about the future of Gwinnett County and guaranteeing that the positive growth we have experienced so far can continue.
- Air quality in Gwinnett would be improved by taking thousands of cars off the road.
For all these reasons, and more, vote “Yes” on this MARTA question for Gwinnett.

Six fundamental principles guided Dr. Martin Luther King’s mission
By Elliott Brack
Editor and publisher, Gwinnett Forum
NORCROSS, Ga. | As we move to observe Martin Luther King Day on Monday, it’s fitting to review the King Philosophy. Dr. King viewed three evils, that of poverty, racism and militarism that he said formed a vicious cycle. He felt these were intertwined and were barriers for reaching his nirvana, what he called the “Beloved Community.”
Let’s look at his thoughts in this area, this taken from his view as recorded at The King Center in Atlanta and available on the Internet.
Fundamental tenets of Dr. King’s philosophy of nonviolence are described in his first book, Stride Toward Freedom. The six principles include:
PRINCIPLE ONE: Nonviolence is a way of life for courageous people. It is active nonviolent resistance to evil. It is aggressive spiritually, mentally and emotionally.
PRINCIPLE TWO: Nonviolence seeks to win friendship and understanding. The end result of nonviolence is redemption and reconciliation. The purpose of nonviolence is the creation of the Beloved Community.
PRINCIPLE THREE: Nonviolence seeks to defeat injustice, not people. Nonviolence recognizes that evildoers are also victims and are not evil people. The nonviolent resister seeks to defeat evil not people.
PRINCIPLE FOUR: Nonviolence holds that suffering can educate and transform. Nonviolence accepts suffering without retaliation. Unearned suffering is redemptive and has tremendous educational and transforming possibilities.
PRINCIPLE FIVE: Nonviolence chooses love instead of hate. Nonviolence resists violence of the spirit as well as the body. Nonviolent love is spontaneous, unmotivated, unselfish and creative.
PRINCIPLE SIX: Nonviolence believes that the universe is on the side of justice. The nonviolent resister has deep faith that justice will eventually win. Nonviolence believes that God is a God of justice.
Once stating his principles, Dr. King then went forward with six steps to achieve non-violent social change.
- INFORMATION GATHERING: To understand and articulate an issue, problem or injustice facing a person, community, or institution you must do research. You must investigate and gather all vital information from all sides of the argument or issue so as to increase your understanding of the problem. You must become an expert on your opponent’s position.
- EDUCATION: It is essential to inform others, including your opposition, about your issue. This minimizes misunderstandings and gains you support and sympathy.
- PERSONAL COMMITMENT: Daily check and affirm your faith in the philosophy and methods of nonviolence. Eliminate hidden motives and prepare yourself to accept suffering, if necessary, in your work for justice.
- DISCUSSION/NEGOTIATION: Using grace, humor and intelligence, confront the other party with a list of injustices and a plan for addressing and resolving these injustices. Look for what is positive in every action and statement the opposition makes. Do not seek to humiliate the opponent but to call forth the good in the opponent.
- DIRECT ACTION: These are actions taken when the opponent is unwilling to enter into, or remain in, discussion/negotiation. These actions impose a “creative tension” into the conflict, supplying moral pressure on your opponent to work with you in resolving the injustice.
- RECONCILIATION: Nonviolence seeks friendship and understanding with the opponent. Nonviolence does not seek to defeat the opponent. Nonviolence is directed against evil systems, forces, oppressive policies, unjust acts, but not against persons. Through reasoned compromise, both sides resolve the injustice with a plan of action. Each act of reconciliation is one step closer to the ‘Beloved Community.’
Martin Luther King, 1929-1968: Thank you for these words and this guidance.

Long-term constitutional wall threatened by religious libertarians
By Jack Bernard, contributing columnist
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof … ” – U.S. Constitution, First Amendment.
PEACHTREE CITY, Ga. | Many modern-day conservatives often only acknowledge the last part of the above sentence. Maybe that is why former AG Sessions created a so-called “religious liberty” task force. But, would the misnamed group be more accurately named the “bigotry using religion as an excuse” task force?
It can’t happen here? It can and will if right-wing fundamentalist efforts succeed, enabled by the most extreme, activist right-wing Supreme Court in my lifetime.
Though there is absolutely no Constitutional basis for this wrongheaded assumption, there are consequences of using this misinterpretation as the basis for public policy decisions. Namely, unrestricted liberty to infringe on others’ “unalienable rights.” All of these actions would be legal because of the perpetrator citing personal “religious liberty”:
- A middle class African-American couple is refused service at a restaurant by a member of the Christian Identity Church;
- an elderly Jewish couple is refused a room by a motel owner, a member of the Radical Traditional Catholicism sect;
- a Hindu graduate student is refused entrance to a master’s degree program at a “Christian” college;
- an Egyptian-American Islamic studies professor is told that an ultra-orthodox Jewish surgeon does not accept Muslim patients; and
- a wealthy married gay couple are in a serious auto accident, but the EMS worker is a fundamentalist Kingdom Identity Ministries member who refuses to treat them.
These so-called “religious liberty” advocates clearly do not understand how this nation was formed during the “Age of Enlightenment.” Many of the Founders (Jefferson, Adams, Franklin, etc.) were Renaissance men who often did not believe in a Judeo-Christian God and/or the Trinity, at least not as many current-day evangelicals do.
Further, our Founding Fathers were most aware of the problems brought about in Europe by centuries of bloody religious conflict. They obviously wanted to avoid that divisiveness here in the New World, a place where Europeans came to practice their religions freely.
Therefore, they wanted a wall separating religion and government and built that into the Constitution. That wall is violated when any government employee, including a politician, advocates directly or indirectly for religion. Based on recent actions by all three branches of government, I am concerned that our long-established Constitutional wall is being threatened with crumbling.

Story of home intruder brings comment from two readers
Editor, the Forum:
I was riveted to my seat reading the account of Liz Collins attacking the male intruder in an upstairs bedroom of her house in the middle of the night!!
Wow! Wow! Wow! I don’t care if her actions were instinctive, she acted and she was smart about it. I would have probably fainted dead away. Amazing that she got him down the stairs and out the front door! Absolutely amazing! You go, girl!!!
— Susan McBrayer, Sugar Hill
Editor, the Forum:
The account of Liz Collins in your previous issue reminds me of when my mother, Elizabeth Cofer Herndon, at age 28, backed down an attacker in Morningside. I was there. I will never forget the look on that guy’s face. He believed her and even apologized before he trotted off. Never had that problem again in Morningside. Perhaps that story got around pretty fast

UPCOMINGFormer council member Bender Is Snellville’s new mayor
Barbara Bender has been appointed Snellville’s mayor after the resignation of Tom Witts. Because Bender had to resign her council seat to take the mayor’s post, there will be a special election March 19 to fill that seat. Qualifying for the Post 5 seat will take place Jan. 22-24 in City Hall. Bender, a CPA in private practice in Lawrenceville, served on the city council for six years from 2005 – 2011 and was elected again November 2013. Bender and other council members and members of the community praised Witts for his contributions to the city before he resigned. “I would like to thank Mayor Tom Witts for his work and his efforts here in the city. He really did do a phenomenal job as councilmember and as mayor. Keep Tom and Carol Witts both in your thoughts and prayers as he’s still undergoing chemo treatment for his colon cancer and his wife just had surgery for her bladder cancer on Friday.” The new mayor was sworn in by City Clerk Melisa Arnold.
Suwanee’s Art-on-a-Limb tradition to mark 15th anniversary
The City of Suwanee is seeking proposals and samples from artists willing to go out on a limb for the city’s finders-keepers art-in-nature program.
Suwanee Citizen Ben Grant smiles happily after discovering an Art on a Limb fairy door on the Suwanee Greenway in May 2018.
A Suwanee tradition, Art on a Limb is an award-winning, month-long program designed to celebrate and bring attention to the arts, as well as the natural beauty of the Suwanee parks and greenways. Since 2005, the city has hidden two pieces of artwork – created especially for the City of Suwanee – daily throughout the month of May within city parks and along the greenway; those who find the trail treasures get to keep them.
Past Art on a Limb pieces have included fairy doors, clay birds and orbs, small paintings on canvas, pieces of the City’s old water tower, magnets, gourds painted to look like birds, the Suwanee S shaped from metal, and pottery pieces. This year, we’re looking for something new, unique, and fun!Artistic proposals for this year’s program will be accepted through February 22. Guidelines and an application are available at suwanee.com.
NOTABLESnellville’s microtransit system gets 6-month extension
Snellville’s microtransit program, which transports citizens for free around the city on small buses, has been extended past its initial six-month run until April 30.
The program has proven to be so popular that county officials decided to extend the free service along its 17-square-mile route. Nearly 20,000 passengers have ridden a Microtransit bus since the program debuted.
When the program kicked off in September, the program drew an average of 91 daily passengers, during 68 average daily trips. In December, there was an average of 242 daily passengers riding 180 average daily trips. The highest one-day passenger count during the Gwinnett County Transportation program’s run was 344. The highest one-day trip count was 225.
Kurt Gagnard, Gwinnett County Transportation transit planner, says: “We are currently running seven ADA accessible 12-passenger vans within the zone and have experienced steady growth in our completed trips. We have transported passengers to any number of locations and purposes including to grocery stores, school, work, doctor/dialysis visits, shopping, and back to their homes.”
Once the free pilot ends, the county will review all of the data to determine what best suits its needs for a future technology procurement and then eventually roll the program back out in the Snellville and Buford areas.
Gagnard adds: “We will establish a fare for the service at that time though the amount has not yet been determined. We are currently looking at ways to optimize the service in order to reduce wait times and hope to have improvements rolled out as soon as they are developed.”
Riders will be able to be picked up and dropped off door-to-door within a specific zone in Snellville. Microtransit operates Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. For more information visit gctransit.com.

National Weather Service says Georgia Gwinnett College is storm ready
Georgia Gwinnett College (GGC) held a small ceremony recently during which Former President Stas Preczewski was presented a certificate from David Nadler of the National Weather Service (NWS) acknowledging that the college met the NWS criteria to be officially identified as StormReady. To receive this designation, GGC had to substantiate its existing emergency operations policies that include holding emergency exercises and promoting the importance of public readiness through campus community events and seminars.
StormReady communities, counties, Indian nations, universities and colleges, military bases, government sites, commercial enterprises and other groups are better prepared to save lives from the onslaught of severe weather through advanced planning, education and awareness. According to the NWS, close to 98 percent of all presidentially declared disasters in America are weather related, leading to nearly $15 billion in damages.
Nine Perfect Strangers by Liane Moriarty
This 450-page novel came as a Christmas gift. I had heard of the book, but did not know what it would be about. An Australian author tells of a visit by nine people who did not know each other to an outback retreat, which promises a ‘new you.’ The 10 day retreat is pricey and different. The retreat is run by a Russian ex-pat woman who had a ‘new way’ to work with people, and includes long periods of silence, to reflect upon yourself. Meanwhile, they can have no outside food or drinks, and are given special food and Smoothies, which most thought they would not like, but turn out with delicious unknown ingredients. Eventually it also includes a long period of fasting, where the story takes a wide turn. You’ll be surprised at the ending! I had been thinking that there would be a murder; instead I found a thriller.–eeb

Michael inducted into Georgia Women of Achievement in 1999
(Continued from previous edition)
Describing “a full spiritual experience,” Moina Michael vowed “always to wear a red poppy…as a sign of remembrance.” She dashed off her own poem, “We Shall Keep the Faith,” and later bought 25 red silk poppies for her staff at Wanamaker’s Department Store.
Michael
After the Armistice, Michael led colleagues in a campaign to honor the American war dead by wearing poppies as a new symbol of remembrance and peace. Dean Talcott Williams of the Columbia School of Journalism enlisted the New York press to reach the public. The first endorsement came in December, 1918 from overseas YMCA workers involved in war demobilization. At the same time the YMCA, with Michael’s encouragement, created a campaign logo, depicting a red poppy entwined with a torch. By April 1919 the Flanders Fields Memorial Campaign was underway.
Poppy sales would raise generous sums for veterans’ groups in the years that followed, but by February 1919 Michael had resumed her career in Athens, accepting a position as social director at the State Normal School, later the College of Education at UGA. She also served as a professor, teaching special summer classes to disabled veterans. In the early 1920s she represented the Flanders Fields Red Poppy movement, which garnered formal adoptions by several veterans’ groups: the American Legion, its Auxiliary, and the Veterans of Foreign Wars.
As the 1920s continued, however, Americans lost interest in the war and remembrance activities decreased in number. Michael’s career had meanwhile reached its limits. Despite her good record and impressive fame, she had never taken a degree, though UGA awarded her emerita status when she retired in 1938.
Residing at the Georgian Hotel in Athens, Michael still gave interviews to the media and to folklore specialists in the Federal Writers’ Project. In 1941 she published an autobiography, The Miracle Flower: The Story of the Flanders Fields Memorial Poppy, proudly using the public’s affectionate nickname for her, the Poppy Lady, on the book’s title page. She died in Athens on May 10, 1944, and chose that same identifier as the epitaph for her tombstone at historic Rest Haven Cemetery in Monroe.
Many organizations have honored Michael’s work. A marble bust of Michael, created by Steffen Thomas and sponsored by the Georgia American Legion in the 1930s, now sits in the rotunda of the Georgia State Capitol in Atlanta. In 1944, during World War II (1941-45), the U.S. Navy dedicated the SS Moina Michael, a Liberty class transport cargo ship constructed in Georgia. And in 1969 the Georgia General Assembly named a section of U.S. Highway 78 near Athens the Moina Michael Highway. Michael was inducted into Georgia Women of Achievement in 1999.

Eerie lights add unusual color to this edition’s mystery
Today’s Mystery Photo has an eerie look about it, apparently from multi-colored lights shining on this building. Figure out where it is located and tell us by sending in your idea to elliott@brack.net, and for sure, include your hometown.
L
ast week’s Mystery Photo had all the inklings of a church, but was the Town Hall in Gouda, South Holland, The Netherlands, sent in by Jerry Colley of Alpharetta.
Allan Peel of San Antonio, Tex. was first in, telling us “Gouda, of course, is famous for its cheese. So it is not surprising that at the very heart of the old town is the mid-fifteenth century Gothic Stadhuis (town hall) that is positioned at the center of ‘Gouda’s Markt’ – one of the largest market squares in Holland and scene of a weekly, tourist-orientated, cheese market. The Gothic Stadhuis is one of the oldest and most impressive Gothic secular buildings in The Netherlands. The old town hall building absolutely looks the part with sculptures, flags, a clarion and colorful shutters. While not as ornate, and as shown in the attached photo, the back of the building is also impressive as it faces the cheese market, lined with plenty of Gouda cheese wheels!”
Others recognizing it included Susan McBrayer of Sugar Hill and Lou Camerio of Lilburn. Then Bob Foreman of Grayson wrote: “Gouda City Hall in the Netherlands is not a church. You thought you could throw us off.”
George Graf of Palmyra, Va. chipped in with this: ”Don’t forget that the name of the country is Netherlands, not Holland. The Netherlands is made up of 12 provinces, of which only two have the name Holland (North and South). The Verzetsmuseum Zuid-Holland is a small museum with exhibits dedicated to life in Gouda and the province of South Holland, during the Second World War. The museum’s exhibits emphasize issues related to the International Declaration of Human Rights. Documents, photos, weapons, dossiers, and uniforms are just a few of the things on display. Canal tours of Gouda are a fun experience. Some have an onboard mini bar and snacks available on the boats or you can arrange a lunch, high tea or buffet dinner for your special event.”
In the last issue, we omitted one name who recognized Curacao. It was Jeanine Ritter, who lives in Suwanee.
