I had a wonderful experience this weekend and I wrote about it in my blog, www.deloreslowefriedman.com. I bumped into a stranger whose life intersected with mine. It's one of those stories that reminds you that when you throw a pebble into a pool you do not know where the ripples will lead. Do take a look at Discovering a Legacy on my blog which tells of a my college experience working to get a black history course at Hunter College. He took a course in black history in the year 2000.
The backdrop of my novel Wildflowers is the sixties, and Saturday brought some of the events in the book into high relief.
