I thoroughly enjoyed reading your letter. You take the reader on your journey and they ultimately walk beside you as you share sights, sounds, and meanings of the worlds/cultures you visit. You go beyond a tourist mentality and put heart and feeling into the places and people you describe, providing insights into how to really “see” into worlds all too often viewed only at a superficial level.

Thank you so much for sharing your story. Without you, I would be more ignorant and uninformed! I too am in awe of his/her/ourstory that we were taught growing up and how far it is from reality.

You covered a lot of territory. Your letter is a reminder for me to read “They Call Me George” – my uncle was a Pullman porter. Thanks for sharing this incredible journey of racial introspection.

Thank you so much for sharing your travel journal. What a great way to document such magnificent sites and stories. It has me itching to get on the road and reminds me of how much there is to learn.

So informative! Thanks so much for sharing, Kathryn. I appreciated hearing about community-building in Liberty where I lived for 16 years and learning more about what nobody was teaching when I was in public schools in New Jersey.

Kathryn, The letter not only provides an account of your travels, it contextualizes your travels in the geographical and historical contexts.
