    One Moment, Please… 9/11: 25 Years Later - Fillmore County Journal (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    As we approach the 25 year anniversary of September 11, 2001 (9/11), it’s still fresh in my memory. And, I’m sure I’m not alone. On that Tuesday morning, while working for The Daily Journal newspaper south of Chicago, I was traveling from our office in Bourbonnais to the main newspaper headquarters in Kankakee. I was listening to the radio when I heard an interruption in the music. The North Tower of the World Trade Center had been struck by a passenger plane (American Airlines Flight 11) at 8:4

    Letter about standing with the Jewish community… - Fillmore County Journal (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    I am a life-long progressive democrat. I believe in things like health care for all, taxing the rich, LGBTQ rights, racial justice, environmental protections, etc. I have voted in every election since 1968 but I don’t know if I will vote this November. Why? I am angry about the rise of antisemitism in this country and the world. Though the democratic and republican parties justify it differently, both engage in it.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    July 23, 2026 – Who gets to own a piece of the future? Ownership – of land, of livelihood, of voice – was central to the American experiment. In southern Minnesota, it remains central to the work of building vibrant, resilient communities. And for many people, belonging begins with having the opportunity to shape what comes next. Belonging isn’t just about feeling welcome. It’s about feeling like you can build something. That you can own your personal future and, if you choose, help shape your c

    Letter about preparing for the next bad air alert … - Fillmore County Journal (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A scratchy throat and itchy eyes aren’t the only results of wildfire smoke. Invisible 2.5 micron particles are so tiny they penetrate lungs and enter the bloodstream to organs, including the brain. Effects include inflammation, heart disease, lung cancer, COPD, and respiratory infections. Even on clear days, 2.5 PM levels can be dangerous (airnow.gov). Little lungs are even more vulnerable; I’m thinking of children and pets. Although our recent air alerts have cleared, wildfire seasons are expan
