\u00a0<\/span>It\u2019s been a busy week. First of all, I\u2019ll mention two events I didn\u2019t attend. Both were held at Judson and both had large crowds. Wrestling with Zionism explored the treatment of the Palestinians. I attended Mystery Writers of America to thank the outgoing president, Jeff Markowitz, for his involvement and enthusiasm and to welcome the new president, Erica Obey.<\/p>\n

The second event honored Jean Montevil. A friend gave me permission to quote his Facebook account of the event: At Judson Memorial Church marking the second anniversary that Jean Montrevil, our friend, father of four, and advocate to so many, was swept off the street by ICE and deported. We joined his kids today to launch the “Bring Jean Home’ campaign to right this wrong! Join us!judson.org<\/a><\/p>\n

A friend and I attended a Frick concert given by Paul Galbraith, the acclaimed guitarist and Antonio Meneses, the acclaimed cellist. They mesmerized us with Bach, Schubert, and various compositions written for the two musicians.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Rakuko Naito and Tadaaki Kuwayama had an opening reception at Christie\u2019s on January 14. It was glamorous, uber Manhattan spiked with champagne and lots of attitude. I\u2019ve admired Rakuko\u2019s intricate paper work for years<\/p>\n
