I interpreted Julie Strandlie as being one of the original supporters/organizer of the school name change. Beyond that I did not pay that much attention to her role. However, the Woodson "myth" did come from someone and one of the early adopters would be as good of a source as any.
Where did Keys-Gamara's taxing statement come from? I could not find it on her website. Being an advocate of taxing authority is essentially the same as being an advocate of blowing the lid off of the FCPS budget and almost endless tax increases. They have proven that they cannot be trusted with the taxpayer's money and need the Board of Supervisors control as a check against excessive spending.
