Comment on The Last Great Race: “They got Black people up there?” by Heather

It is unfortunate that this story is out there, but only because it is not factual. Unfortunately stories like this are only news at the outset, and when they are found to be unsubstantiated, there just isn’t any follow-up. Norman was never officially charged and he did not leave his dogs without planning for their care.

[...] MacAlpine did not live to see his 71st birthday, and he never did make it all the way up the Iditarod Trail. He died, tragically, in a fire at his home in a suburb outside of Anchorage in 2007 surrounded by his dogs. He was 70. One of his sons, Norman, lived his dad’s dream and completed the Iditarod in 1983. [...]

Uh…this can’t be the same person that you are talking about?

I live in Alaska, follow the Iditarod, have a teenage African-American son who hopes to race in it someday, and have enjoyed rooting for mushers that we know, personally, take excellent care of their dogs. We were proud to see Newton Marshall do well last year and hope he does well this year. I had heard there were other African-American mushers in Iditarod history and went looking for more info. I was annoyed that these Black mushers have not gotten more mention in Iditarod lore. I Googled to get more info about them. I am sorry that I found it, based on the sad story of animal cruelty in the above link. It’s okay to delete my message after you read it. I know you probably don’t want this out there and maybe you are not aware of it?

Loved the Adorno/Horkheimer debate — I never realised they were so good looking.

I have been worrying Watts Towers since Oct 10 1950 so their mortality matters! Hopefully the strong feelings for them by CEO Michael Govan and the art skills of LACMA will sustain them again!
