150 Years of Minnesota history at museum
Published Tuesday, May 13, 2008
Celebrate Statehood Days with a presentation by Steven Keillor, author of Shaping Minnesota's Identity: 150 Years of State History, at noon on Wednesday, May 14 at the Otter Tail County Historical Museum.
Minnesota's history is a chaotic tapestry of diverse voices, intense political passions, divergent social forces and distinct geographical arenas, all of which helped shape the identity of its people and the political direction of the state. A professor at Bethel University, Keillor is the author of eight books. He will be signing copies of Shaping Minnesota's Identity after his presentation. Sponsored by Otter Tail Power Company, Steven Keillor's program is free and open to the public.

The Daily Journal is happy to host community conversations about news and life in Fergus Falls and the surrounding area. As hosts, we expect guests will show respect for each other. That means we don't threaten or defame each other, and we keep conversations free of personal attacks. Witty is great. Abusive is not. If you think a post violates these standards, don't escalate the situation. Instead, flag the comment to alert us. We'll take action if necessary. It's not hard. This should be a place where people want to read and contribute -- a place for spirited exchanges of opinion. So those who persist with racist, defamatory or abusive postings risk losing the privilege to post at all.Post a comment
