http://misplacedamerican.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 28, 2010. The Gathering at Ft. Lincoln. The Gathering at Ft. Lincoln. They came from many corners of this land to a place on the Great Plains. Where the ancestors of the hosts of the gathering had roamed free and proud. They came to a room constructed over a swimming pool of collective tears. Representing lost freedoms, lost integrity and shame. They were of diverse lineage- -mainly Native American, Japanese, German. But also Scotch Irish, English, African American and others.

The Misplaced American: December 2011
http://misplacedamerican.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 09, 2011. 70 YEARS AGO TODAY. It was exactly 70 years ago today (December 9, 1941) that my father was suddenly arrested by the FBI. There was no forewarning of this. Several agents came to our farm home near Plaza, Washington, and after entering the house and searching it, they put handcuffs on Dad and took him away. My mother, brother and I stood by in shock. Why did this bill never come to a final vote? Remember F.D.R's famous line: "We have nothing to fear, but fear itself!

Monday, January 19, 2009. This day of hope in 2009. As you can see, it's been awhile since I last posted to this blog. I'm writing today because I am incredibly moved by what is transpiring as I write this, and because of what is happening, I am hopeful for "giant leaps" of advancement for human rights in this great country of ours and in the whole world. Perhaps this will be the year. Posted by Ursula at 1:29 PM. Eastern Washington, United States. View my complete profile. Stephen Fox's New Book Blog.
