Gentlemen: I write in friendship. Reacting to information provided to me, I prepared and sent the attached to the Jesuit High School (Sacramento) Board of Trustees, as an alumnus, as a Jesuit-educated attorney, and as a longtime political and Catholic activist. I am a Democrat in the style and philosophy of President Kennedy’s Inaugural Address (January 201961), a tradition now entirely gone in the Democratic Party…Read More

I have friends in common with all of you. Right now I am very angry. Each of your recent public statements about race and politics have been disastrous. Your…
