BRACK: Novel set at Grove Park Inn introduces enemy internment

By Elliott Brack  |  A new novel by an American Cherokee Indian set at the Grove Park Inn in Asheville gave me insights into a side note of World War II history.  The book, Even As We Breathe, is by Annette Saunooke Clapsaddle, the first enrolled member of the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indians to publish a novel.  It was released in September.  The author graduated from Yale University and The College of William and Mary. She is the executive director of the Cherokee Preservation Foundation, and an English teacher at Swain County (N.C.) High.

BRACK: Seems to be simple way to solve which restroom to enter

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | We in Georgia may think we have our problems. Yet recent action by the Legislature in North Carolina puts that state in the ranks of those with reactionary actions flying in the face of reasonableness.
