I am so proud of the people of Grant County and John Day, Oregon, where I work as a town planner. They stood up to the Aryan Nation and sent them packing. Oregon counties should adopt Hate-Free resolutions. If all 36 counties did this, the Aryan Nation would stop looking here.

Dear TOL,

Your show featuring Shaindel Beers was outstanding. The interviewers' questions were right on the mark and Ms. Beers was charming. Your listeners were treated to a wonderful reading, one that I could listen to again and again. 

I would like you to feature more writers and poets like Ms. Beers. I hope you will seek out other emerging poets for this series on Oregon's regional writers. 

Sincerely,

Scot Siegel
