Vanessa Ward For Governor!!, Preston Love Jr.

Vanessa Ward represents every good and confronts the bad about the politics. North Omaha has produced some great gems over the years. Athletics, musicians, entrepreneurship, community, the professions, intellectual capital and lastly in politics. Space does not allow me to expand on each but I surely could.

This begs the question: What does mainstream society view as gay-ness and how is the DL constructed …
