MinnesotaBrown combines news, commentary and creative writing. Opinions and editorial decisions belong to me, Aaron J. Brown, a denizen of the Mesabi Range and independent man of letters. I am active in the Iron Range community and disclose the following conflicts of interest: Hibbing Community College (employer), Hibbing Daily Tribune and KAXE (contract work); local political involvement (campaign manager for State Rep. Tom Anzelc); co-chair of Dylan Days in Hibbing. This blog does not represent any of these organizations. I welcome civil discussion.
