Week Ahead

I will be doing an opinion post on the 2022 election on Tuesday, Nov 22.  If you wish to include a personal commentary, I’d be glad to include it in the blog.  Send as an e-mail response.  (My e-address is in the upper left corner of this blog.)

There is a very relevant Human Rights program on Ukraine on Thursday of this week.  Register, and more information, here.  I am an active member of the Board of the sponsoring organization, Citizens for Global Solutions MN.  The program is free, but pre-registration is required.

Episode 7 of Rachel Maddow’s Ultra podcast is now available.  I have followed this since the first episode, and it is outstanding and informative about the near miss of our country with Fascism in the pre- and WWII years.

If you have even the slightest interest in the threat to democracy we have been living through, you are urged to listen to all 7 episodes thus far; if only one, listen to #7.  Those with any connection to North Dakota – Bill Langer and William Nye become key players….  A Minnesota Senator is centerpiece in Episode 1.

There is one episode following this one, I presume it airs next Monday.  Each episode is about 45 minutes or so and all are accessible on-line.

POSTNOTE:  We spent the last four days – Nov 9-13 –  in New York State at a family event.  No politics.  People from all over the U.S.  Most time in Rochester NY.  My personal favorite snapshot in the four days at American Falls at Niagara.

Niagara Falls, U.S. side Nov. 10, 2022. (Canadian side too obscured by mist for a good photo.)
