[Ted Goertzel]

The Today's Issues group meets in the parlor of the Religious Education
Building next to the church at 9:30 on Sunday mornings.  All participants
are fully vaccinated.

This Sunday, October 3, we will discuss two essays from the October 3 issue
of the New York Review of Books.

Page 4, Nathaniel Rich, "Rolling Along
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/182fVzdbcWrIrahTCuwJ75tt79TEWVMK88mrJaFgoVVc/edit?usp=sharing>,"
a review of a book called *They Called us River Rats: The Last Batture
Settlement of New Orleans* by Macon Fry.  The beauty, eccentricity, and
precariousness of life on the river side of the New Orleans levees.

Page 16, Fintan O'Toole, "The Lie of Nation Building
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_OLZYD1zweT6gj4HTMgsnMNv3XuQc0b0NMBj4krZA3w/edit?usp=sharing>,"
>From the very beginning, the problem with the US involvement in Afghanistan
lay essentially in the deficits in American democracy.  This raises
questions about American foreign policy around the world, not just in
Afghanistan.

Please do the reading and join our lively discussion.  All are welcome.
