Kristin, my reaction to your post was the same as Aln1&#82a7;s. It is a very thoughtful and striking portrait of change in what was a key period in modern American history. The Declaration of Purpose in the brochure speaks clearly of the spirit of community and common effort that typified that time, and to my mind, the fact that the Black Star Market closed soon afterward, and that the site is now an empty lot, in no way diminishes the importance of what your father and his colleagues did to bring people together in their community. Very impressive.
