Dear Lansing Journal, I'm thrilled about your interview with Burgundy Blue. I've been following her journey closely for a year and have witnessed it unfold. Regardless of her residency status, Burgundy has every right to share her perspective on this issue, just like people globally. It was heartbreaking to see her facing so much hatred and being Doxed. I've initiated a GoFundMe for Burgundy and Dr. Scott in Dolton but cannot reach them. If you have any means of contacting Burgundy, please inform me as I'd be eager to support a fellow Township Resident.

Guessing you are one of her mods that delete half the comments, even the ones that are critical but respectful. Sycophantic and rose-tinted perspectives that feed her ego and victim complexion are not doing anyone any favors Burg has many qualities and talents. I was a fan, now I am disappointed. I hope she does better in the future.

It’s good to know she grew up there❤️. This has really blown up and interested me when I found out the population, avg/med income, and the many residents that started posting. My heart was crushed how she was treating the beautiful residents of Dolton. I’m in Texas and I immediately started sharing once I started doing my own detective work. Tiffany just keeps making things worse for herself the less transparent she is and the more she lies and covers things up. VOTE HER OUT!!! Help the residents campaign for a better, more honest leadership!!!

@@123Snowtimeyo you can try to badmouth Burgundy all you want, she has done nothing to deserve it. Her whole involvement started with a simple Superchat of $19.99 she sent to a KZfaqr that Jedidiah Brown doesn't like; HE (Jed) started this whole debacle, pulling Burgundy in and attacking her, because he didn't have the cojones to direct his displeasure to the KZfaqr. His email to her was all about how he felt like she didn't do this or that for him, which she was not required to. She sent a superchat to a KZfaqr who is telling the truth about EVERYBODY, not just going after Tiffany, which is what everyone wants. I know the facts about this whole situation, and anything that Burgundy has done or said has been in response to Jedidiah, the Trustees, and some residents, who have attacked her, or allowed Jedidiah and his associates to be their voice to attack her, for NO REASON. Whether she just came back is irrelevant, she is here, and all she was ever doing was reacting and commenting to the news that was unfolding in Dolton. You guys have been getting distorted information, and attacking her based on that. She has been nothing but classy throughout this whole situation, and I'm glad she is being seen and recognized as a valuable ally in the journalism arena.

​@@odettethompson6221 In a surprising turn of events, I discovered that I had worked with Burgundy without realizing her identity, as she never mentioned it publicly. During that time, she was dealing with a family tragedy. We visited her at home to show our support. It's my hope that people would pause to consider the situation. Burgundy is not just a resident but also a neighbor in need. Witnessing the neighborhood's attack on her in Dolton reinforces my appreciation for now being a Hoosier. Great Job Lansing Journal

There's no solid evidence against BB-just gossip aimed at tearing down a black woman. It's disheartening. In all the videos I've watched, she hasn't harassed anyone. Burgundy, you're a trending topic-ride that wave, mama!
