  • After Mexican drug lord's capture, family of slain Minnesota journalist seeks justice

    Jul 25, 2022

    This month's capture in Mexico of an elusive drug lord revived a decades-old trauma for two daughters of a slain Minnesota writer who fear that he could again evade justice for their father's murder - even while in custody. Rafael Caro Quintero, one of Mexico's most powerful drug bosses, had long been the target of American authorities for his connection to the killing of DEA agent Enrique Camarena in 1985. But Caro Quintero is also linked to the torture and murder that same year of John Clay...

  • MSP Airport employees fearful about taking LRT between terminals

    Jul 25, 2022

    As the end of July approaches, longtime flight attendant Shannon Thein is filled with dread. When air traffic was decimated by the COVID-19 pandemic, Thein and other employees at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport could park at Terminal 1 where there was plenty of room following the outbreak. Now, as Americans make up for lost time and pack planes during the summer of "revenge travel," the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) plans to move employee parking back to Terminal 2 by Aug. 1...

  • Emerson is latest Minneapolis public school to require uniforms

    Jul 25, 2022

    Students walking into Emerson Dual Language Elementary school in Loring Park this fall won't be wearing any neon-colored shirts or tops featuring their favorite superheroes. That's because the magnet school is the latest in Minneapolis Public Schools to implement a dress code, requiring its students to pair a solid-colored top in either red, blue, black or white with blue, black or khaki pants. That decision came after a schoolwide vote that showed 55% of families were in favor of adding...

  • A four-day workweek sounds good in theory, but would be tough shift for Americans to make

    Jul 25, 2022

    A four-day workweek sounds appealing to workers - and possibly alarming to employers. A bill introduced in the California legislature earlier this year proposed a regular pay rate for 32 hours of work per week, with overtime kicking in after that. The measure stalled in committee for a lack of broad support but could resurface in 2023. Meanwhile, 4 Day Week Global, a nonprofit foundation associated with Oxford University, is piloting a six-month trial of a four-day workweek "with no loss of pay...

  • Pope lands in Canada, set for apologies to Indigenous groups

    Jul 25, 2022

    EDMONTON, Alberta - Pope Francis began a historic visit to Canada on Sunday to apologize to Indigenous peoples for abuses by missionaries at residential schools, a key step in the Catholic Church's efforts to reconcile with Native communities and help them heal from generations of trauma. Francis kissed the hand of a residential school survivor as he was greeted at the Edmonton, Alberta, airport by Indigenous representatives, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Mary Simon, an Inuk who is...

  • Russia says strike on Ukrainian port hit military targets

    Jul 25, 2022

    KYIV, Ukraine - Russian defense officials insisted Sunday that an airstrike on the Ukrainian port of Odesa hit only military targets, but the attack tested an agreement on resuming grain shipments that the two countries signed less than a day before the assault. Long-range missiles destroyed a docked Ukrainian warship and a warehouse holding Harpoon anti-ship missiles supplied by the U.S., Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said at a daily briefing. Speaking late Saturday in his...

  • Average US gasoline price falls 32 cents to $4.54 per gallon

    Jul 25, 2022

    CAMARILLO, Calif. - The average U.S. price of regular-grade gasoline plunged 32 cents over the past two weeks to $4.54 per gallon. Industry analyst Trilby Lundberg of the Lundberg Survey said Sunday that the continued decline comes as crude oil costs also fall.

  • Indian Country Must Push Back on Conservative Attempts to Whitewash Boarding School History

    Jul 25, 2022

    About thirty years ago, I made a deal with myself to read at least one book a year written by a conservative right-winger so that I could try to understand the rationale behind their positions on race relations and governmental policy. As the years flew by and the United States became extremely polarized, I stopped reading conservative writings because I found many of their arguments lacked merit and were, quite often, mean-spirited and laced with paternalistic attitudes towards people of...
