on March 6 was a historical and emotional event for me. To be invited to talk in the old prerevolutionary historical hall of my hometown, where I had an idyllic childhood from l946-1960 and lived as an adult in the seventies, was a deeply moving experience. Many dear friends I hadn’t seen in years were in the audience. My son Andre will be posting the speech as a Dispatch soon. Here are some lovely blogs about the event :
