Folks,
I'm sad to report that Jonathan Kozol is too sick to come to NYC this week.
The wet and cold has made it worse, and now his doctor is forbidding travel.
Thus, the event we were planning at the Graduate Center with him this Friday is cancelled.
Hopefully, we will be able to reschedule when he is feeling better.
I can't recommend his new book, Fire in the Ashes, enough.

Norm,
ReplyDeleteEven with the subways back, I think the turnout would have been low. I have to admire you for wanting to participate. I think people need to rest. Even now I can hear the shoveling of the snow.
Reschedule in the Spring.
