New Albany anti-discrimination law draws raves from Kentucky, by Grace Schneider (C-J)
... New Albany’s new law bans discrimination in employment, education, housing and public accommodations based on an individual’s actual or perceived race, religion, color, sex, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, gender identity, veteran or military status, or disability.
As newly appointed members of the commission prepare to meet for a formative meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday at the city-county building, groups in Kentucky have praised the city for passing the law.
New Albany is a state of mind … but whose? Since 2004, we’ve been observing the contemporary scene in this slowly awakening old river town. If it’s true that a pre-digital stopped clock is right twice a day, when will New Albany learn to tell time?

"New Albany anti-discrimination law draws raves from Kentucky."
I've forgotten to welcome the Courier-Journal's Grace Schneider back to the NA-FC beat. She returns to cover a city that somehow manages to move forward in spite of itself, as with this progressive recognition of human rights, one sure to be attacked by the usual troglodyte saboteurs at their earliest opportunity.
