MISF meets regularly on the third Saturday of the month, 10:00 a.m. (Talk starts at 10:30). We meet at Hosmer Library, 4th Ave. and 36th St. in Minneapolis. There is a small parking lot and lots of on-street parking available. Hosmer is served by the #11 bus, but there are three other bus routes within 1/2 mile, including two high-frequency routes. Guests and interested persons are always welcome at these meetings. For more information,

MISF member Rhoda Gilman will tell us about her new book "Stand Up! The Story of Minnesota's Protest Tradition," recently published by the Minnesota Historical Society Press. This book explores the rich Minnesota tradition of protest movements, and the charismatic persons who led them. Gilman has written many books about Minnesota history and is a knowledgeable and engaging speaker. She has been especially interested in both women's history and the history of native peoples.
