Opis

Writing essays on social justice has been my daily passion and full-time work since 2008. To date, I've published roughly 1,500 pieces which have received excellent, helpful criticism from a group of longstanding, dear friends and from a consistent readership of fellow writers, first at Open Salon and subsequently at Our Salon. Some pieces have appeared on other sites, such as Talking Writing, Does This Make Sense, Pal Talk News, The Jewish Reporter, Punchnel's, Beguile, Castle Gay Guide, and A World of Progress. In early 2013, I began posting pieces readers have told me are their favorites every few months at the Daily Kos. Because this book is a personal memoir that draws on social history, it reflects both general social history and my own. I respond in my writing to world and national events that have worked their way into my personal and professional life and informed my values and worldview. I've found that historical events and the justice inherent in them (or the lack thereof) continually resonate in the present. Jonathan Wolfman
