I thought I’d make available my presentation I gave for “Big Read” which was sponsored by Mecca, The Shelton McMurphy House, Books with Pictures and the National Endowment for the Arts.
The Shelton McMurphy House gave away 500 copies of “Can’t we Talk About Something More Pleasant” by Rez Chast, a brutally honest and humorous book about aging and dying. Perhaps to get us all thinking and talking about death and difficult emotions through laughter and comics. I’m so glad I was involved.
The pictures here are of comic Artist Lynda Barry who is a big inspiration to me. I had the thought, why not also film myself giving my slideshow/lectures that I make for my high school students. They are interesting and just as good as other YouTubers I watch. So here for your enjoyment and edification is “Super Team.” More are on their way, ok? It seems my head is VERY small and cut off for most of this presentation, oh well.
Here is one on Jazz music and how it can inspire us.
