SmallTownBigMayor UP's program shows the importance of community, faith, and personal activism.
SOAJohn Henry Berry is the Mayor of D’Lo, Mississippi – and the town’s volunteer fire department, sewer worker, lifeguard, tree trimmer, and dogcatcher. D’Lo, once home to over 6,000 people, now has a population of 400, and is on the edge of disappearing, but John Henry’s not letting the town go down without a fight. With an ambitious 95-point plan, including refubishing the town’s museum, building a library, attracting a restaurant, and passing a law to allow golf carts on city streets, John Henry is passionate about making D’Lo a place to be proud of. But between family members who aren’t always on board with his plans, a deputy mayor who is better at setting the mayor’s agenda than the mayor himself is, and townspeople who make all kinds of demands on the soft-hearted John Henry (including waking him at 2 a.m. to change their lightbulbs for them), John Henry is facing an uphill battle to save the town he loves.
