Untitled[edit]

There is a continuing controversy over Forsythe County and thelack of sourcing severely damages this article.

The 2000 census as noted on wikipedia lists Forsythe as being 95 percent white, but within that only a fraction of one percent were black. There were probably 4 times as many Asians and Pacific Islanders as black people. That does not represent the etnically diverse community that this piece claims. 69.120.49.117 22:19, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I added his obituary, that sources a number of claims in the article--Work permit 03:51, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

More material needed for sections on Williams' civil rights activism[edit]

This article needs more material on Williams' civil rights activism; both for his work in SCLC and close association with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his later work in the Atlanta area. 'Hosea Feed the Hungry' needs to be fleshed out a bit. A lead image of Williams is needed. With more text, a least two more images of Williams in a civil rights context would be a good addition. Wikimedia Commons is weak on images of the broader civil rights movement in the US. - Neonorange (talk) 04:31, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
