Bless the Mic Series Opens Successfully
 
The fifth annual Bless the Mic series opened, Thursday, Sept. 23, 2010 with a record crowd of more than 800 audience members filling the M.L. Harris Auditorium and the Wesley Chapel to hear noted author and sociologist, Dr. Michael Eric Dyson. Dyson was the first speaker to grace the mic when the series opened in 2005. Thanks to you, this season opener was a huge success. We look forward to you coming out for more lectures as the season continues through March 2011. Our next featured speaker will be NeNe Leakes of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta", who is scheduled to appear, Wednesday, Oct. 13. Save the date.
