A basic understanding of science, and support for free access by all residents to high quality branch libraries with trained Reference Librarians who also understand basic science, is another responsibility of being an Adult in a republic. Understanding the basics underlying any illness, like smallpox or typhoid, the history behind it, and the sensible precautions that can be taken to avoid it, are like teaching Typhoid Mary why she was a carrier. We all have a duty and a right to understand, and to protect our fellow human beings.

2.) Does either source tell why she never understood that she was a carrier?
3.) Share your thoughts about how you would help her, if you had been the head of the NYC health department,
4.) Write a book, story, blog post or tweet that uses those ideas, and then, please tell us about it! If you write a book, once it is published please consider donating a copy to your local public library.

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.
