Statehood 50th Anniversary Commission members
I noted the convening
of the statehood commission, and last week David Shapiro posted
the list of the 25 members of the state's 50th Anniversary of
Statehood Commission. There are some good people on there, and many names I
don't recognized, but I do not recognize anyone who actually represents a
sovereignty perspective to help bring to bear some critical analysis and
historical perspective, like this:Is Hawaii really a
state? Statehood: A Second
Glance I'm also posting the
full list in the extended
entry...
