    Hi Reney! I’m so glad to hear your good medical news! So wonderful…I will keep the prayers coming. Great idea about devoting a part of your channel to the subject of breast cancer. This is a terrific video on Hansberry’s play. Really well done! Hugs to Raina! 😊

      @BookChatWithPat8668 Yes! Everything seemed to be stacking up nicely for me with what they found on the pathology reports and my genetic testing - but hearing the "official word" from the Oncologist was HEAVEN! I really think I can help others by sharing what I've learned along this journey. I like doing these banned book videos - some of the best books I've read!

    Great news on the health front. Throughout my life I have consistently heard that Chicago persists as one of the most segregated cities anywhere - I’m not out often enough to test the proposition, but I believe it.

    Sidney Poitier was so good in the movie from the 60s.

      Yes! Thank you! I had a great week in many ways! Sidney Poitier is probably the reason why I remember the movie at all. My mom loved him and I think we eventually watched all his movies together.

    You know I didn't realize how almost black and white about phrasing of a "banned book" was. This video was super insightful, and really help see what gets a book to receive it's "banned" title. I didn't get the book as part of my literature on my end!

      Thank you so much or your kind words! I'm glad you got something out of the video. The banned book project has been very eye-opening! So much of the bans and challenges happen at the local level - sometimes a book is challenged, but manages to remain in the curriculum or on the library shelf. Other times, books are simply moved to other library shelves and filed under a different catagory. But bans can also go much further - I learn something new everytime I do these videos.

      @JanetReading Raina was a street dog in Puerto Rico before I adopted her. She has learned to wait patiently for treats and never give up. She also loves a routine. And now she's learned that me at my desk with a video camera equals "treats".
