We must be willing to practice active listening which can mean sitting uncomfortably with awkwardness, and defensiveness, to have dialogue.” She told the audience that none of us are bias free even when we have good intentions and explained that there are four levels of change in building a community: institutional change, organizational change, community change, and individual change.

  • Push Not the River Paints a Vivid Picture of a Tumultuous and Unforgettable Metamorphosis of a Nation—And of Anna, a Proud and Resilient Woman
    THE POLAND TRILOGY BY JAMES CONROYD MARTIN Check out The Poland Trilogy: https://goo.gl/93rzag Based on the diary of a Polish countess who lived through the rise and fall of the Third of May Constitution years, 1791-94, Push Not the River paints a vivid picture of a tumultuous and unforgettable metamorphosis of a nation—and of Anna, a proud and resilient woman. Against a Crimson Sky continues Anna’s saga as Napoléon comes calling, implying independence would follow if only Polish lancers would accompany him on his fateful 1812 march into Russia. Anna’s family fights valiantly to hold on-to a tenuous happiness, their country, and their very lives. Set against the November Rising (1830-31), The Warsaw Conspiracy depicts partitioned Poland’s daring challenge to the Russian Empire. Brilliantly illustrating the psyche of a people determined to reclaim independence in the face of monumental odds, the story features Anna’s sons and their fates in love and war. THE BOY WHO WANTED WINGS A Novel of the First 9/11 Aleksy, a Tatar raised by a Polish peasant family, holds in his heart the wish to become a Polish hussar, a lancer who carries a device attached to his back that holds eagle feathers. As a Tatar and as a peasant, this is an unlikely quest. When he meets Krystyna, the daughter of a noble landowner, he falls hopelessly in love. Even though she returns his love, race and class differences make this quest as impossible as that of becoming a hussar. Under the most harrowing and unlikely circumstances, one day Aleksy must choose between his dreams.

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

That work shaped my historical perspective on the Main Street area specifically, and on the hamlet as a whole. Many people contributed to that research. I will always be indebted, especially, to four venerable locals who brought so much enthusiasm to my interviews: they were Fanny Crawford, Dick Hendrickson, the late John McNamara, and Ed Tiska. Over thirty other residents cheerfully responded to my calls for help and this hamlet report has benefited from their knowledge. In addition, I wish to thank those who shared information with me about specific houses. They include Gail Brockett, Joe Colt, Carol Crowley, Bill McCoy, Fred Ritz, Sr., Don Seabury. I have also made extensive use of A Walking Tour Guide to Historic Main Street, Bridgehampton, New York.
