Article #1
Exchanges with Myron
Medcalf
Very similarly to the
case of Anthony Lonetree, who I have called out in a previous edition of this
journal, two Star Tribune
columnists--- Myron Medcalf and Lee
Schafer— responded contentiously to my emails.
Very tellingly, when I
included in our exchanges mention that their comments would find their way into
my blog and other writing, their adversarial replies and replies of any sort
ceased.
They are cowards who did
not not know the hornet’s nest into
which they would be walking by taking me on.
And inas much as they
are copied now to all of my substantive emails pointing out the actual
vexations of K-12 education, containing abundant of factual information along
with incisive analysis, these journalistic mediocrities give no indication of
interest.
Anthony Lonetree, Myron
Medcalf, and Lee Schafer are more concerned about offense to their own egos
than they are to the fate of our children.
The exchange that I had
with Myron Medcalf is given below >>>>>

Myron---
The abuses of history
are abominable, but the more significant story in year 2021 is the academic
abuse perpetrated daily by the schools of Minneapolis, St. Paul, and those in
the indigenous out-state communities.
Your cowardly and
non-incisive journalism recalls that of Mara Klecker, Anthony Lonetree, and
Erin Golden---
With best wishes---

Native communities---

I don't
know if this is intended for me or not, but you're not gonna bully me into
anything. I don't rock like that. You talk as if you want someone to write
about a subject that's important to you, but then you also talk like someone
who thinks they can push people around. Well, I have news for you. I'm not the
one.
Now,
if you want to have a real conversation, let me know. But I'll never respond to
this nonsense and I'll meet this tenor of dialogue with the same energy I received
it. Have a good day.
