Isn't there a special office led by Judy Billings that does that? Have they not been doing their job? They got a nice chunk of change from the Federal Govt to make this REGION a heritage area and they are based in Lawrence. I haven't seen much going on around these parts. They shunned all of the enthusiastic people geared up to help on the project. Alienation does not a collaboration make.

Freedom's Frontier blends authentic multicultural community stories that transcend the "Bleeding Kansas" lingering legacy of conflict and conquest! This seems to be characterized by intolerance for those folks who have alternative perspectives about our shared sense of place.
