Heart of the Matter

A short and simple question for Stephanie Freedman, who is so quick to criticize and advise San Diegans for our inability to find an appropriate memorial for the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King (Letters to the Editor, Aug. 6): What exactly have the citizens of La Mesa done to find and name an appropriate memorial in their city?

Perhaps we should get our own houses in order before we criticize others.
