thing because it is everything including the collaboration of the three. It is the city streets in which we live, love and exist. With that said let it be known that "URBAN GRAPEVINE MAGAZINE" will cover just that. This "Urban" magazine will be the voice of the people, for the people and by the people. Categories like; Proactive to Things Positive will be presented through provocative, informative, entertaining and even up for debate discussions, but more importantly, it will be our Urban Voices; a voice often unheard but now has a place to not only be heard, but understood. Author Felisha Bradshaw, Author Maritza P. Brown and Author Kaira Denee have set out to change the outlook of what is "Urban." The founder and co-founders of Let’s Talk Urban stand firm behind this project; "Urban Grapevine; The Urban Voice." Sincerely and Literary Yours, Editor in Chief Felisha Bradshaw
