Subject: [Wefta] John Lee Johnson In His Own Words

[please forward]

Dear All,

WILL AM-FM-TV has put together a web page about community advocate and radio
host John Lee Johnson who died last night after a long stay in the hospital.

The website features Mr. Johnson talking about his legacy, his family, his
efforts to improve local education and more. The site also features two
AM-580 news stories about him and two 60-minute plus interviews with him and
the transcripts of those interviews.

Mr. Johnson generously sat with Franklin Middle School students in WILL's
radio studios in 2003 and 2004 for interviews about his life and the issues
he fought so hard for as a community advocate for more than 40 years. In
each interview he challenged the students and pushed them to think with a
community-minded spirit. One of the students, Markisha Motton, an 8th
grader from Franklin, asked him some challenging questions back. It's a
great exchange. Her interview with Mr. Johnson is in the web link below.

My thanks to Tom Rogers and Jack Brighton for helping put this together.



Love,
Kimberlie Kranich
Outreach Coordinator
