Was anyone here involved in the establishment of Camp Wellstone
or anyone know how it happened?

I was thinking that an institute should be started to honor and continue Howard Zinn's work and Ralph Nader said the same thing at a memorial that was held in DC.

So, how do these things get started? Is it close family and friends who reach out to investors? Or can the people get it started?

Does anyone know about Camp Wellstone? TIA. :hi:

2. Howard Zinn touched so many people and all those people are searching
for a way to continue that relationship and to feel he's still with them in their particular struggle.

:shrug:

It's a natural. But, how do those things get started? Do we wait for the family/friends? I'm trying to figure out what is appropriate. :hi:
