Each week, we FLASHBACK to a story or column from our past in honor of four decades of local alt-journalism.

Author: Don MerrillDate: Nov. 18, 2004I'm black, and for me the NAACP is an icon.
By Don Merrill Verified| KBOO-FM Verified Anna Sanger Reed is interviewed by Don MerrillDriving along McLaughlin Ave as I am wont to do, I often see large groups protestors with flags and signs, expressing their First Amendment rights for conservative values and beliefs. But I rarely see "a" protestor, with "a" sign, expressing their First Amendment rights for progressive values because, I think, they are simply intimidated to be out there by themselves. It's easier to be in a school of fish than out there all alone.
