I’m in Minneapolis right now, participating in the fall leadership conference of the Minnesota State College Student Association. The MSCSA graciously invited me out to conduct a workshop, give an address, and take some questions, and they’ve been wonderful hosts. I’ll be hanging out here until tomorrow, seeing some more of the conference and continuing the conversation informally.
Thanks to everyone in MSCSA for giving me such a warm, thoughtful welcome!

On behalf of myself and a great many of the MSCSA students, a huge thanks to Angus Johnston for attending our Fall Leadership Council in Minneapolis.
Your presentations, teachings, and conversations were enlightening, inspiring, and encouraging to the student activists of today. As you pointed out, there is a long history of activism in America; it may have taken on new forms over the years, but the fights for rights and for what’s right is still going strong.
As we continue our work both this weekend and on into the future, we are honored to call you a fellow activist, a mentor and a friend.
Thanks again and we look forward to your book.

I, too, thank Mr. Angus Johnston for the information he brought for us. It was very nice talking with you, Mr. Johnston. YOu sparked my interest in student activism history, in US and in my home country.
