Leonard Pitts

Leonard Pitts is a Pulitzer prize winning columnist for the Miami Herald. He's been writing for years about the problems facing mostly urban poor children, particularly Urban Black children. This past January he had an epiphany. Sick and tired of writing and reading about what's wrong, he has decided to start writing about what's working.

If you are feeling hopeless about the state of the world, you can start to track this column on his website. You'll find that, hey, there is hope in our country. And that hope can be found in people and places all around us.
