I want to share with you the message I received from the host who invited me to speak at the AAUW-Fairfax VA chapter yesterday.

Thanks so much for your excellent, thought-provoking presentation. This topic attracted an unusually high turnout. The absolute silence indicated that everyone was riveted to your story. Attendees voiced conviction that the the story of the Judische Kulturbund must be preserved and disseminated. Keep up your efforts!
