The Human Rights Vibration...and a Book Sale!
I'll be wearing a tiara all week! To my Zoom book launch on Sunday...to the Exploratorium, and also live in Berkeley the following Thursday!
A 75th Anniversary is a Diamond Anniversary. A 75th birthday is a Jubilee! It’s hard to feel celebratory this week as we witness the atrocities of war, but this is a sparkling fact: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is now available in 555 languages. This document has has, in its lifetime become a point of clarity, hard and multifaceted, catching the light, cutting through monoliths.
Bring your own champagne on Sunday to this exciting moment: our book launch dedication to the 75th Anniversary of the UDHR. Every Man, Woman, and Child & Every Living Soul, a new workbook by Merrill Collins and myself, provides anyone with a jewel of a musical setting for creative community readings of the UDHR.
So yes, I will be wearing a tiara!
REGISTER NOW for a short book launch celebration, 11:45-1 on Sunday 12/10/23 at https://us06web.zoom.us/.../tZMtcumvrzMrH9DMHKtyJlgJEjLxX...

I am just seeing this now. Thanks so much how wonderful is this. I will order the book. I am over tired and cannot figure out how to get the music. Where I live I find it almost impossible to get people to lak about human rights. However music is huge and there are many choirs. The one I am in now sings in French. I will look for an English Language choir .
I forwarded your bright invitation to twelve friends. I'm looking forward to Sunday's Zoom. You two are amazing!
