Alveda King at National Press Club Video

Accolades still coming in for Alveda King’s National Press Club Newsmaker.

Some say that America's problems are due to a dearth of leadership among the various communities. As the daughter and niece of two slain civil rights leaders, AD and ML King, Alveda King, author of the new and popular book KING RULES, knows firsthand how the lack of genuine "servant leaders" is hurting the current cultural environment of our nation and the world. Raging conflicts over gun control, sanctity of life, marriage, and the seemingly never ending war on poverty can be viewed through the eyes of Alveda King, a descendent of the legendary "Black Moses" of the 21st Century. In a candid conversation with no holds barred, King is ready to provide transparent viewpoints on what MLK might say about some of the nation's most controversial topics, explored through the lenses of "the King Family Legacy

A PLAY ABOUT FORGIVENESS

 

AS STAGED AT THE KENNEDY CENTER, THE NATIONAL PRESS CLUB, THE DRAMATISTS GUILD OF AMERICA, THE NEW YORK MIDTOWN FESTIVAL, AND THE UNIVERSAL THEATRE AND THE GREENBELT ARTS CENTER

 

Seventy years ago, American forces liberated Rome from Nazi occupation. 

This fact-based, two-act drama deals with that tragic period in Italy during the Holocaust when fifteen hundred Jews were sent to their deaths at Auschwitz.  The drama touches on the role of the Church and the Holocaust, and examines forgiveness amidst three conversions. Rome's aloof and scholarly Chief Rabbi Israel Zolli loses faith following the apparent slaughter of his Polish family. He receives asylum in the Vatican, where he comes to appreciate Jesus as God suffering for humanity. The Rabbi rediscovers faith and converts to Roman Catholicism. This is seen as a betrayal of his spiritual duty and a defection to the age-old enemy. Was his conversion one of conviction or merely gratitude? What does he demand at his baptism that eventually removes a major symbol of discrimination?

Snow

Glad the snow is over. Made me think of the nearly forty trips to the Chesapeake Bay this summer--all delightful

Bridge

Susan and I played about a hundred bridge games, sixty of which were Duplicate.  We won one out of five games, compared to two out of five in 2013.  But we had fun both years.
