Hope & Heart & Home On The RangeAuthor: L. Jay Reinke
"Hope & Heart & Home On The Range" looks at the joy and the humor of life in North Dakota and the Upper Midwest. As we turn to the history that we share, we discover newfound connections between ourselves and the past, connections which both humble us and raise us up, and which sometimes cause us to laugh at ourselves. Looking at the present, we probe current issues by asking, "What does it mean to be human?' and "How do we better serve others and the truth?" With sometimes self-deprecating humor, we seek to lift up others and to find a reason to hope.

In Part 1 of Program #6, we probe two simple questions: If Carnegie Libraries are so much a part of public library history in the United States, why was Williston's original library called the James Memorial? And who was Andrew Carnegie, and why do so many libraries bear his name?Part 2 tells us about Carl's Saturday morning visit with Ole & Lena. In the kitchen he discovers the glories of cinnamon toast, and in the garage he discovers the neatest tool ever. He also discovers the needs of Ole's next door neighbor. Ole discovers a talented artist in a most unexpected place.Part 3 questions some of the claims of the Black Lives Matter movement, and notes how accusations of police racism have an unintended negative impact on the black community.
