“Soul Food Forums” at Wednesday Lunch at Peaches continues this week with Ward 2 City Council Candidate, Chokwe Lumumba. This will be an excellent opportunity to come vet your council candidates(which in a way are just as important as your mayoral candidates). Even if you DON’T live in Ward 2, all of the councilmen will implement policy for the entire city so you need to know where ALL of them stand.

Some come out as usual 11:30am, let your voice be heard AND get some of the best soul food in the south.
