In the early 20th century, Chicago became a city powered by a strong immigrant working class. As U.S. industry grew, immigrant workers demanded a say in their economic, social, and political conditions. Producer Sophia Ramirez revisits the career of Adolph J. Sabath, a Bohemian Jewish immigrant whose constituents elected him into Congress 24 times. The post A People United and Represented appeared first on Feet in 2 Worlds.| Feet in 2 Worlds
The last day of July. It’s one of the first endings of the year. Well, there is the end of winter but no one regrets that. And the switch from late spring to early summer never really leaves a ripple. But… July. Spent the other evening watching dusk arrive at a nearby conservation area, listening … Continue reading "Your Beery News Notes For The End Of July And The Beginning Of The Back To School Ads"| A Good Beer Blog
Summer. Heat waves. Heat warnings. Smoke warnings. Drought. We got it all. Including sugar snap peas. I’ve adoped the Canadian old fart posture this week, when facing a comment on the blistering sun, as I just reply “at least I ain’t shoveling it!” Which is, of course, hilarious. Roar! Tape me ribs!

What’s that down there, back there in the stash? Why it’s a beer. Beer. Mmmm… But what beer? Depends. Is it 2005 or 2006? It is tidy and well stocked? Or is it a bit of a mess? In last month’s contribution for The Session, I wrote about how the best thing in beer since 2018 was the advent of home delivery, brought on by the pandemic but carried on due to an inordinate amount of bureucratic common sense. Once it’s delivered, it gets stored down in the stash.| A Good Beer Blog

The now, the year now past and the eternal. That’s what it’s all about this week. You, kind reader, may consider this too much as task for one person but let us not forget my capacity to do a very poor job. Yet. How about my find of the year or rather my daughter’s find when on the old country visiting family last April. That’s my grandfather up there outside the pub with buddies about 100 years ago.
