– What I still fail to understand is that no one said, “Let’s just make this right.”
Ellen Sue Ewald (56) courses on hair the mild April wind that sweeps across the prairie. From the roof of the apartment building she lives in, she can look down at the shiny glass building that houses the Norwegian Honorary Consulate General in Minneapolis – the city she grew up in, the city where the forces of nature are so cruel that they do not go outdoors in the winter. Where she had found her dream job: to serve Norwegian interests in the “most Norwegian” state in the United States.

Ellen Ewald laughing now, but for long periods set the donkey deep. Especially after she had their say, and especially when she learned how she was featured in the emails between peaks embassy in Washington.
