That's my mother, Eva, circa 1945. Quite a beauty. I miss her and I'm crying as I write this. There's nothing like a mother for providing unconditional love, an element that's in very short supply. Mrs. Watson is a great mother to her 5th graders and a real treat to work with. Smart, black and proud and politically astute. She still calls me "Sir." Her kids participated in Peace By Peace festival sponsored by Columbia University (I guess I can't dislike an entire college just because of Miss Lucy). Here they are in a slide show with pics from the festival and here's a "podcast" of our first installment of our "Dave At Night" project.
