Sisters In Crime Now Has More Than

I Have One Vivid Memory Of One Of The Days That The Marches Were Taking Place. We Were In A Catholic, Predominantly Polish And Lithuanian Neighborhood. Chicago Is A Place Where People Define Themselves By Their Parish And By Their Ethnicity.

Nothing Kinder Than Strangers. Nothing Stranger Than Kindness.

These Events Are Swirling Around Them. In The White Community, People Felt Like They Had No Control Over Their Neighborhoods, Their Destiny. In The Black Community, Centuries Of Government And Economic Forces Were Pushing On Them. I Went In With A Kind Of Arrogance, Maybe, That Came From Living In A Very Intellectual Family, And I Left Knowing That There Was A Lot About The Way People Lived That I Didn't Know About.

Capo, My First Golden Retriever, So Loved To Swim She Once Jumped Off A Cliff To Get Into Lake Superior.

The Day Of The March, We Were Forbidden To Go To The March Site. The Man I Worked For, The Presbyterian Minister, Knew We Would Want To Be Sort Of Martyrs For The Cause And Risk Arrest. He Didn't Want Any Of That Going On. So He Made Us Stay In The Neighborhood.
