Lake Calhoun, a lovely urban lake in the Minneapolis chain of lakes, was (oddly) named for him. For various reasons, people want to remove his name and call it Bde Maka Ska, an Ojibwe phrase meaning "peaceful lake" or something close to that. The Park Board, the City, the State, and the Feds are arguing over (a) whether this is a good idea, and (b) who gets to decide. I favor the new historical name, even though Bde is pronounced like the French bathroom fixture.Jim H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08221390745888733656noreply@blogger.com
