LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Dear Editor, I would like to address a comic recently published in Taylor Press (Sunday, March 12, 2023). This comic, while in the opinion section, is in such poor taste that I felt that I should write to you. 03/31/2023 11:10 PM

I moved here searching for a place to call home. I wanted to leave city life and move to a place where I could get to know my neighbors and participate in community building. The rainbow ducks I saw gave me hope that Taylor was a progressive, safe place for my family (even though we would probably be the only Jewish family in town). 03/31/2023 11:10 PM
