Our “Gullah Geechee Corridor and the East Coast Greenway” film, from Hankerson-Henry Productions, tells that story; connecting tourism, cultural heritage, and cycling back to travel and tourism in St. Johns County through Rails to Trails, the Sea Island Loop, and the East Coast Greenway.
Historic City News editor Michael Gold knows all too well about various social media outlets censoring conservative views under the pretext of halting false “right-wing” opinions and “extremist” views.
The Florida Bar, the state’s guardian for the integrity of the legal profession, announced to local Historic City News reporters that the Florida Supreme Court recently disciplined 19 attorneys – disbarring one, revoking the licenses of three, suspending 13 and publicly reprimanding two. One attorney also had to pay restitution, and two others were also put on probation. Disciplinary revocation is tantamount to disbarment.
