So much I don't know...

17. Try Parochial school in the 1940's

All of our text books had to have the imprimatur of the Archbishop of Milwaukee. We learned all about the Jesuit missionaries, the first American saint, Mother Cabrini.

But I remember a Currier and Ives book of prints that my mother got from Book of the Month club. The book held two prints of slaves being unloaded on a beach in the South. My curiosity led me to later read James Bladwin, but even though I thought I knew what went on in the South, now at age 83 I just found out about the Tulsa massacre. Just goes to show how knowledge never ends nor does fear and ignorance.
