CHECK THIS OUT (AND CONTRIBUTE IF YOU CAN PLEASE)

I was born in Orange, at Orange Memorial Hospital, which no longer exists, and joined the service at the recruiting office in the Orange Post Office, and had a lot of other adventures in Orange where cousins and other extended clan members lived. It was right next door to my home town and was the location for many early adventures and loves.

My friend, the brilliant and unique writer, Mindy Thompson Fullilove, author of ROOT SHOCK and URBAN ALCHEMY, and an Orange native, is a big part of this project and deserves all the support she, and it, can get, so check it out:

We're posting "30 stories in 30 days" on our University of Orange Facebook page -- to give an idea of the kinds of stories we've been hearing in this interesting city.  https://www.facebook.com/pages/University-of-Orange/209708885716392
