Not a review but "Senator refers to his constituent as a state treasure" is a pretty vanilla statement. Surely there's something more interesting to say about a civil rights activist ... maybe that the home of civil rights activist Lottie B. Scott is a stop on Norwich's Freedom Trail?

Article is new enough, long enough, everything seems properly sourced and neutrally written, nothing really on Earwig, QPQ completed. I don't mind approving the current hook, but I do think
Cbl62's proposed hook is more hooky. Alternatively, you could make a hook in connection with the the jazz club, such as "...the
Norwich Arts Center branded its inaugural jazz concert series "
Miss Lottie's Jazz Cafe."
