Oprah has announced her final season of her daytime talk show and apparently she has decided it's time for another trip down south. In 1987, she visited Forsyth County and was none too pleased with what she saw. At the time, the county was actually on the tail end of it's racism days.
Since then our county has drastically changed. I doubt she will recognize us. Our schools are very diverse, we have many many more citizens and we have way more traffic! Not only that, but the county is filled with citizens that have relocated from all over the country due to job changes and decided that Forsyth county was where they wanted to be. From the beauty of the lake, proximity to the north GA mountains as well as the city itself, and the numerous activities for families, it is such a wonderful place to live.
It should be interesting how the show portrays us this time. I know I will be very interested in seeing that part of the show. I can only hope that we have overcome the former ugly reputation and finally see redemption.
