Parishioner in MBA class




Bob Massie
Factor VIII
Life in Paris. I cannot imagine living in a 400yr old apartment. A microwave from 30 yr old apartment seems like a compromise.
Yesterday I read about how France built discrimation in its citiesA reversal of situation.
The author relates how various incidents in his life have prepared him for the future. By running the first school paper, he saw how change can be brought only if both the authorities and the subjects are willing to call out the mistakes. Encountering people facing difficult nations, he learnt that crime doesnt need a political label.
Last grave at Dimbaza
Vladimir Bukovsky
When the author finds that Yale in 1974 wasnt built with access to all in mind, I looked up the Yale Disability services. Having worked at Disability services as a student, I didnt know that the facilities werent available all the time until Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
The book has a powerful voice when the author narrates his experiences as a parishioner. He builds the scene with his dilemmas of making people see the problem with how the church money is being handled by divesting the moral connection and its obligations having laid the responsibility of its welfare in a ruthless third party hand. Sound familar?
It was excitng to read the coverage of South Africa relations and Mandela release. It made me imagine how my country leaders would have felt fighting for freedom.
