On This Date in Minnesota History: May 28

May 28, 2012 – “President Barack Obama honored a diverse cross-section of political and cultural icons” — including Minnesota native and “rock legend Bob Dylan — with the Medal of Freedom at a White House ceremony [on this date]. The Medal of Freedom is the nation's highest civilian honor. It is presented to individuals who have made especially meritorious contributions to the national interests of the United States and world peace.”
