In case you have been living in a hole for the last year, you know that few days pass when we don t use the word protest in our daily conversations.
Some of us can still remember the years of the violent Vietnam war protests of 1968-1970, those following the assassination of Martin Luther King, and the time Ohio National Guard fired into a crowd of anti-war protesters at Kent State University, killing four.
This summer, our beloved nation has endured a series of racial and social protests.
We watched, just three weeks ago, in horror as a political rally in Washington, D.C. morphed into a raging mob. They stormed the capitol, trashed our nation s political cathedral, sent legislators cowering in hiding, and cost the lives of five, including two police officers.

The state of Maine needs to work on creating affordable housing, especially for our senior citizens. The closing of Boothbay Green is disheartening but I do understand the reasons why, as explained by Dr. Allan Teel of the Eldercare Network in this week’s article. As he said, the upward trend in age in our state, and in our county in particular, will only increase the problem of finding housing and care for the elderly. I hope our state representatives are working hard on pushing this idea to their fellow representatives and Governor Janet Mills.
Congratulations to the Y Arts group and its director, Emily Mirabile, for their performance of “Shrek Jr.” for the Junior Theater Festival and for winning another Ensemble award. The 25 youngsters impressed the judges, who viewed their routine virtually on Saturday. We are lucky to have such a dedicated arts and humanities director, who was trained well by her mother, the original Y Arts director, Ginny Bishop.
