June 1st 2020: (20) Letter to the Editor from Callie Simmons, supporting Black Lives Matter. 

“The  Black Lives Matter movement is not suggesting that black lives should be valued above others, but rather that black lives are undervalued and often ended tragically and prematurely in America….As one America demands the luxury of getting a haircut, the other is stalked while taking a jog. As one America complains about the lack of happy hours another is murdered, asleep in their home. One America is protesting a luxurious, outdated lifestyle that is literally killing people and the planet, while the other is protesting that their very lives matter.”
