The NAACP Has Landed

These droves of tourists and international media wandering around downtown Cincinnati can only mean one thing...

The NAACP kicked off their 99th annual national convention in the Queen City today, and naturally, the University of Cincinnati Association of Black Journalists is right in the middle of it all.

Alicia Gaynor (UCABJ president and college radio personality) and Elissa Sonnenberg (journalist, college professor, and UCABJ faculty adviser) are reporting live on conference events as volunteers for the media arm of the NAACP Convention. Check out their posts on the official NAACP Convention blog here.

Geoffrey Dobbins (vice president) and Terron Austin (UCABJ alum) will also be joining the fray in the next couple of days.

And that's not all...
Our favorite Cincinnati Enquirer business reporter, Keith Reed, blogged about"The NAACP's Guide to Cincinnati" for The Root, Henry Louis Gates Jr's daily online magazine. Catch Reed's post here.
