| 释义 |
The blog was started in March 2005[2] by political activist Matthew Jerzyk, a long-time community and union organizer with SEIU and Jobs with Justice. Contributing to this was the first Green Party elected official in Rhode Island's history (who later became a Democrat), State Representative David Segal.[3] Rhode Island's Future played a key role in the 2006 Senate race[4] between Sheldon Whitehouse and Lincoln Chafee by exposing a scandal involving a Chafee staffer[5] sending controversial emails from a government computer[6] just one week before the election. Jerzyk, the blog's editor, also played a central role in a prominent controversy at Roger Williams University School of Law involving the chairman of the university's board of trustees use of the "N-word" and the subsequent removal of his name from the law school.[7] Edited by Bob Plain, the site features as contributors:[8]
