This nomination passes, AGF on offline sourcing. An interesting aside that is not part of the article, is in the source for the ALT1 hook. That being, the city's 1956 first-ever screening of African Americans and women in the jury pool. And while one black man passed, none of the women made it through the questioning of potential jurors. How far we have come! — Maile (talk) 22:50, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
