[AAACE-NLA] modernization thesis

[Debbie Yoho]

George, I want to thank you for your summary.  While, as usual, your prose is dense, it is precise, and I am taking the liberty of passing it on to my Board members.  I think there needs to be more widespread understanding of our work in the context of societal/historical forces, and you have captured much in a pithy few paragraphs.  As a note on this listserv medium of communication:   I would also observe that while I wondered for a while if the Andres/Andrea dialog along these lines was of real relevance to a list on Advocacy, I think that finally the discussion has moved around to how all this affects the message we are trying to "get out there".  Does anyone know if anyone (in addition to George) is working on some kind of a history of adult ed with an emphasis on  placing that history into this broader context?  George, how is your book coming along, anyway?
