- Governor DeWine hosted a number of events this week centering around the local screening of a documentary called “Right to Read”. The film follows an NAACP activist, a teacher, and two families who work to promote the vital importance of literacy as a matter of civil rights. Kareem Weaver, the activist shown in the film, was in Ohio for these events and he features heavily in this Dispatch coverage of the Columbus screening. (Columbus Dispatch, 4/18/24)
- Finally this week: YAYYYYYY!! Huge congrats to Fatima Abdulkadir, graduating senior at Metro Early College High School (seriously dude, this again?), who was awarded a ginormous college scholarship from Amazon to help her pursue her studies in computer design at Ohio State. And additional kudos—from one nerd to another—for saying that she’s passionate about computers…out loud and on the record. (NBC4i, Columbus, 4/15/24)
