Kidsignments founder celebrates 30 years of savings: We were there to celebrate its 20th anniversary. And its 25th anniversary. And now that Gwinnett County’s Kidsignments is turning the big 3-0 … well, we couldn’t miss this celebration, could we?
This morning, we spent another morning with our great friend Jeri Lynn Cunningham and her enthusiastic army of volunteers, as the Spring 2024 Kidsignments Sale officially welcomed in shoppers.

Podcast investigates Jamil al-Amin case
The new Tenderfoot podcast series 'Radical' takes a look at the nuances of the investigation that led to the arrest and life sentencing of Jamil al-Amin for the murder of two Fulton County deputies. Podcast producer and host Mosi Secret sat down with Natalie McCann to talk more about why he decided to look into the case.
Mosi Secret, the podcast host of "Radical," which follows the gripping tale of Imam Jamil Abdullah al-Amin: Formerly H. Rap Brown, al-Amin, a Black Power activist and honorary officer in the Black Panther party, was caught up in a murder case that echoes through history and into today. After a deadly firefight in March 2000, al-Amin flees to rural Alabama, triggering a manhunt, and a trial amid post-9/11 anti-Muslim fervor. He was sentenced to life in prison. While he suffers in solitary confinement, al-Amin’s influence grows among Muslim inmates, all while his family uncovers evidence challenging his conviction. By 2020, a glimmer of hope emerges as a "conviction integrity unit" begins to reexamine the case. This odyssey spans the Jim Crow South, the civil rights Movement, the war on drugs, and post-9/11 America, unraveling a story that transcends a murder trial to explore the impact on a community of Black Muslims in the South.
