A few months ago, our family had the honor of welcoming Historian David Cecelski
to our family farm in Pamlico County. Dr. Cecelski has authored numerous
award-winning books including one of my favorites The Fire of Freedom: Abraham
Galloway and the Slaves’ Civil War. It was an amazing day sharing the history of
my maternal family and hearing his wisdom and insights about the local history
of this region. As hours passed, Dr. Cecelski narrowed our discussion to an
interesting piece of my family’s history. It centered on my maternal
grandfather, Frederick Douglas Fisher who was born in 1891 and his love for
education but most specificallyRead More →

The past few months have been impactful as we at the Peletah Group acquired the
New Bern Post. We are so grateful to Randy Foster for his willingness to trust
us with this paper that he started. Since the transition occurred, we have been
amazed by what we have experienced. There have been community members contacting
us to be citizen journalists, people having problems reaching out and needing
assistance for justice, story leads, and so much more. We have been working
behind the scenes with state and national partners to see how to best develop
the work that Randy started and to do it justice.Read More →

Marva Fisher Baldwin September 30, 2021 One of the world’s most noted literary
works begins with one of the longest opening sentences. It reads: It was the
best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the
age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity,
it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of
hope, it was the winter of  despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing
before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all goingRead More →

A tax credit opportunity zone designated for New Bern due to a purported high
level of poverty is mostly made up of a decidedly well-to-do historic
neighborhood, the city’s thriving downtown, and two major city parks. The zone
also includes the New Bern Grand Marina, home port of some of New Bern’s nicest
yachts. The zone also includes Trent Court and a rundown section of town between
downtown and the Riverside Historic Neighborhood. “I believe we initially
learned of the Opportunity Zones program from Alderman Jameesha Harris,” Colleen
Roberts, New Bern public information officer, told the Post in an email.  “She
