REUNITING WITH HISTORY
My favorite part of North Dakota’s history is the present. Two years ago, I saw a book, “Fly in the Buttermilk: One Black Man’s Odyssey,” by Robert L. Polk at a bookstore in Minot. It was published in 2022.
I immediately called a friend who had been a fellow camper in 1947 at the North Dakota Congregational Bible Camp at Lake Metigoshe. It was there we met Polk, who was on the summer staff.
