Jeremiah Wright's Philly Connection

I'm working on some long posts but they aren't quite ready yet, so here's a quick local tie in to a national story about Sen. Obama's pastor, Jeremiah Wright, Jr.

In the April 7 New Yorker, "Project Trinity," by Kelefa Sanneh points out that:

Wright was born into the pulpit. His father, Jeremiah A. Wright, Sr., was a preacher, the leader of the Grace Baptist Church of Germantown, in Philadelphia.
