Summary Program # 776: "Title: Rough crossings. The Revolutionary War was a cruel irony for slaves. The goal of national independence and liberty excluded them; even though many served as American soldiers. To gain their freedom, many others opted to serve the British Crown. Historian Simon Schama describes the fate of these Black Loyalists in his new book Rough crossings, which is the foundation for this conversation."--Track sheet.
Program # 777: "Title: Extraordinary women "Fifty-eight of the most accomplished women in America agreed to reveal their favorite fantasies for a new book, "Extraordinary Women." From Joan Rivers to Helen Thomas, these contributors offered imaginary visions that either offered dramatic complements to their public lives or express hopes that represented the culmination of their life's work. The book was produced by Illene Leventhal and Francine Levinson, who explain its contents."--Traxk sheet.
