(Day 1Day 5)

Stayed on Freedom’s Call
(free copies at: https://archive.org/details/StayedOnF…)
includes two ‘imagination-rich’ walking tours, with songs, of Washington, DC. New interviews and research are woven into stories of old struggles shared by both the Jewish and African-American communities in the capital city.

Shared histories are explored from a new perspective of cultural parallels and parallel institution-building which brought the two communities together culturally and historically.

Please leave a review, if you can, on the GoodReads page.

    1. For the moment, Quips, yes, I must agree that it is. But with enough work and solidarity, or empathy, rather, I believe that we can turn that around.

      I’ve just finished writing a section on libraries that I’ll be grateful to see your thoughts about, once it posts on Wednesday.

      1. I’ll take a look at it. I am not a Fox news person but I try to read the highlights in the WSJ editorial (I get the highlights daily). It’s an alternate point of view, but seems more fact based than many I have read. Today was not one of those days.
