Letters to the Editor

To the Editor,
I met Nader Hashim many years ago when he ran for Windham-4 state representative  but I had seen him around the community for years. He would regularly stop into the Putney Food Co-op at the end of his shift as a Vermont state trooper, still wearing his uniform. He was...
To the Editor,
I appreciated Gerald Malloy coming to Whiting­ham on Tuesday, July 19. He was excellent at presenting his thoughts and history. I enjoyed his wife’s input also. He is running for the US Senate. He appears to be on a good page for putting my country back on a great track. He...
To the Editor,
When I look at the ballot, I cast my votes using a sort of mathematical equation for each candidate: supports my values, plus has lived experience to inform their values, plus has public service or leadership experience, plus shows integrity, plus listens to a variety of...
To the Editor,
This past Wednesday, July 20, I offered a presentation for the communities of Dover on bitcoin and the blockchain at the Dover Town Hall. A friend and his wife attended. No one else from the town came and the presentation ran for two hours for an audience of two.

To the Editor,

To the Editor,
I first met Nader Hashim in 2016 while he was still a state trooper. As a participant at the Putney Huddle my first impression of Nader was that he was genuinely curious, asked intelligent questions, and listened actively to those in his community.  
When he was...
To the Editor,
I met Wichie Artu at the start of the pandemic. Our initial work researched how COVID-19 impacted our Vermont community members of color in Windham County and statewide. We were at a place of identifying needs but needed to find ways to make an impact. We evolved into a new...
To the Editor,
I am disappointed that VTDigger still hasn’t added a debate for the Democratic nomination for the US Senate seat to its schedule. The absence of this primary race in their lineup is conspicuous; on June 28, they hosted debates for the US House for each party. This followed...
