SUMMARY: The Trotter Center in Columbus now requires a fee for reservations, as the city has implemented a new policy. Previously, there was no set policy, but Mayor Gabe worked to establish one to address the need for consistency. The fees for reserving the convention center range from $1,100 to $1,550 depending on the day of the week and level of the center. The fees help cover maintenance and upgrades for the center, including security. City-sponsored events can still use the center for free. Reservations must be made by contacting the front office or Mr. Gina, as there are no online reservations available.

SUMMARY: Governor Tate Reeves of Mississippi has declared April Confederate History Month, urging Americans to understand and appreciate their heritage. The proclamation, signed annually by Reeves and previous governors, is supported by groups like the Sons of Confederate Veterans. However, there are concerns about whether promoting Confederate principles, including slavery, is appropriate for a changing Mississippi. While Confederate symbols have been removed, honoring those who fought against the country is questioned. Advocates for honoring Mississippians who fought for justice, like Medgar Evers and Fannie Lou Hamer, are calling for a reevaluation of the state's commemoration practices to align with evolving values.
