Let us all walk in the foot steps of John Lewis

By John King In Selma, Alabama, on Sunday, March 7, 1965, John Lewis, standing in the lead of a long line of marchers, looked down from the crest of The Edmund Pettus Bridge at the line of police armed with clubs, whips and truncheons and said, “I am going to die here.” Lewis intended to lead the marchers from Selma to the capital Montgomery, to demand access to voting for Black people in Alabama. Sheriff Jim Clark lowered his gas mask and led the deputies, some on horseback and some on foot, into the line of marchers. Under swinging clubs and hooves trampling, Lewis was the first to go down. Women and children were not spared. Choking and blinded by tear gas, they were struck by clubs and truncheons wrapped with barbed wire. Lewis, with a fractured skull and a severe concussion, almost did die. The nearby Good Samaritan Hospital did not have enough beds to care for the injured marchers. A nation watched in horror as news footage of that bloody day appeared on T...

Who do they represent?

Alexandria area State Representative Mary Franson has been in the news this week regarding her refusal to meet with a group of well mannered Alexandria high schoolers. My brother John sent the letter below to the Long Prairie Leader. It makes you wonder how many other politicians believe they represent only part of their constituency. -- ed. Dear Editor, It's a good idea to keep an eye on the legislators in order to see what kind of mischief they are up to.  Even if they are not from your district. You may remember Mary Franson; she was our representative until a few years back when things were redistricted and she was sent across the county line to Douglas County to represent the folks over there. So I have more or less kept my eye on Mary. She caught my attention this week with a Twitter exchange she had with the Student Democratic Society at Alexandria High School.  The students wanted to meet with her at her office out of a sense of civic responsibility...
