SUMMARY:1950 - Life In America 75 Years Ago
DESCRIPTION:Journey to 1950\, a defining year of post-war America\, when optimism soared and new challenges emerged. The Baby Boom was reshaping family life\, and suburban living became the American ideal. Television became the centerpiece of entertainment\, with early shows like I Love Lucy laying the groundwork for modern TV culture. Meanwhile\, the Cold War began to take hold\, with the Korean War marking the first major military conflict of the era. \n1950 wasn’t just about politics and economics—it was a year of rich cultural milestones. The movie Sunset Boulevard captivated audiences with its sharp critique of Hollywood’s Golden Age\, and Ella Fitzgerald’s smooth vocals dominated the airwaves. In sports\, the New York Yankees won another World Series\, while consumer goods like frozen dinners and color televisions symbolized the growing comfort of middle-class American homes. The Tonight Show\, Bill Murray\, and Morgan Fairchild were born in the same year that George Bernard Shaw and George Orwell died. \nThis program offers a vibrant look at a year of optimism and tension\, filled with fascinating stories\, visuals\, and multimedia elements. Whether you remember 1950 or are curious to learn about it\, this engaging presentation will transport you back to a time of hope\, change\, and cultural growth. Reserve your spot now to experience the year that set the stage for modern America! \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:2000: Life in America 25 Years Ago
DESCRIPTION:Travel back to the year 2000\, when America stood on the cusp of the 21st century. The dawn of the internet age was in full swing\, with AOL chatrooms\, Napster\, and the first major dot-com bubble shaping how people connected and consumed media. \nY2K fears loomed large\, but the new millennium arrived without the predicted chaos. Politically\, the nation witnessed one of the most contentious presidential elections in history\, as the Supreme Court ultimately decided the Bush-Gore race. \nAmong the famous people who left us in 2000 were Hedy Lamarr\, Steve Allen\, Walter Matthau\, and Charles Schulz. \n2000 was also a landmark year in American popular culture. On television\, Survivor revolutionized reality TV\, while Gladiator dominated the big screen\, winning the Academy Award for Best Picture. Meanwhile\, NSYNC and Britney Spears were at the peak of their pop stardom\, and the Nokia 3310 became the must-have cellphone of the year. \nConsumer goods reflected the digital shift\, as DVD players became increasingly popular\, and gas prices hovered around $1.56 per gallon. \nFast-moving\, nostalgic\, and packed with surprises\, this multimedia program offers a fresh perspective on the year 2000. Whether you remember the era vividly or want to learn what made it so pivotal\, this engaging presentation is the perfect way to reflect on the cultural and historical milestones that shaped the early 21st century.

SUMMARY:Jimmy Carter (AM)
DESCRIPTION:Jimmy Carter was an enigma. \nA profoundly religious Southern Baptist\, raised by a segregationist Father and an open-spirited mother who nursed Black families without pay in southern Georgia\, Carter’s unique background made him hard to define and hard to understand. \nAs President\, Jimmy Carter was a moralist. Neither liberal nor conservative\, he made few political friends and found himself isolated even from those in his own party. \nPresident Carter brimmed with self-confidence and a moral compass that told him what to do and whom to trust. \nThe common perception of Carter is that he was a lousy President (except for the Camp David Accords) and our greatest ex-resident. However\, the impact of the Carter Institute\, his many books\, his work in establishing Habitat For Humanity\, and his world travels as an ambassador of peace have made Carter more popular now than when he was President! \nJoin us for a unique and insightful view into the background and career of Jimmy Carter! \nCOST\nThe program is available for a minimum contribution of $5.00\, which helps support my work and allows me to continue offering engaging content. \nPAYMENT OPTIONS \nCash/Check\nPayable to: Barry Bradford\nMail to:\nBarry Bradford\nP.O.

SUMMARY:Jewish Heroes Of The Civil Rights Movement
DESCRIPTION:Some people incorrectly think of the civil rights movement as African-American people versus white people. \nThe truth is that many white people\, including many Jewish Americans\, provided physical\, emotional\, and monetary support to the movement. It would be more accurate to describe the civil rights battles of the 1950s and 60s as a battle between good and evil. \nThis inspiring and fascinating multimedia presentation will examine how Jewish Americans committed themselves to Dr. King’s goals of freedom\, voting rights\, community\, and an end to discrimination. We will examine \n“King repeatedly used the Jewish experience as a model of success over oppression. He respected and admired the values taught by Judaism and\, as a deeply religious man\, felt inspired by the Torah itself. He was sure that an alliance between blacks and Jews was fundamental to progress in civil rights. King felt a sense of kinship with the Jewish people and welcomed — even expected – – Jewish support and felt let down when it was not forthcoming.” Rabbi Marc Schneier \nThis Is A FREE Presentation\, Presented On Zoom. It is at 1 Central –  2 Eastern\nClick Here To Register\n  \n  \n  \n  \n
