The National Conference for Community and Justice recently invited me to attend a meet & greet and lecture with author, educator and activist Jonathan Kozol at the University of Hartford. The NCCJ held a cocktail reception in honor of Mr. Kozol, who later that evening gave a lecture and autographed copies of his newest book “Letters to a Young Teacher”. Here are some photos from the evening…
