*“My Nicaraguan High School: Second Chances for People Who Never Thought
They'd Have One”*
*with Margaret Morganroth Gullette*
In San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, almost thirty years ago, my Nica friends
and colleagues said educating illiterate women was the first step to
help the people to health and a better life. With 265 graduates from
that program, we then opened the Free High School for Adults to provide
the highest quality secondary education and a government-certified
diploma to under-served adolescents and adults, rural and urban,
excluded from the regular high schools. Twenty years later, what were
the obstacles, and what difference has it made?
*• Margaret Morganroth Gullette*spends much of her time raising funds
for the Free High School. She has been a writer of prize-winning books
on age, the latest, Ending Ageism, or How Not to Shoot Old People. She
lives in Newton, is a resident scholar at the Women's Studies Research
Center at Brandeis, and is on the Board of the Newton-San Juan Sister
City Project. The beautiful website for the FHS:

*“The Art of Diane Esmond, Presented by Her Son”*
*with Victor Wallace*
Diane Esmond (1910-1981) was an artist who lived most of her life in
France, except for a period of exile in the U.S. during and after World
War II. Victor's slide-show, while giving an intimate view of her life,
will display a sampling of her paintings, which ranged over many
subjects but culminated in her vivid evocations of the tropical forest.
*• Victor Wallis*teaches History and Political Science at the Berklee
College of Music. He is the author of Red-Green Revolution (2018),
Democracy Denied (2019), and Socialist Practice (2020). After his mother
returned to France (in the mid-1950s), she stayed in touch with him for
most of each year through letters. This correspondence informs his
narrative of her life.
