OK, somebody at The Argus called me on the phone after the LNG
pipeline hearing at the City Council meeting,
I'd like to draw the attention of anyone interested to a book
discussion group on a rather important subject, which is starting
next week:
The End of America
Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot
By Naomi Wolf
"The End of America," by Naomi Wolf, is a study of the ten
steps that the worst dictators of the 20th century-from Stalin to
Hitler to the present day-have taken to undermine and destroy
democratic institutions in the nations they seized.
The public is invited to join a study group to read and discuss
Wolf's book, and those ten historic steps toward dictatorship which
can be seen in the policies of the present administration.
To read and discuss this important work, join the discussion group
which will meet in the Rogers Room of the City Library, February 12
and February 26, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. The event is free and open to
the public
To sign up for this group, e-mail: waltw at teleport.com
Or simply show up for the meeting.
Copies of "The End of America," by Naomi Wolf, are available at the
Barnes & Noble bookstore in downtown Forest Grove.
Regards,
Walt Wentz
