"I would like for no more histories to be lost" “I think that one of the things that we’ve lost is our history of neighborhoods. It’s hard to build a city’s history, or a state’s history, or a country’s history without history from the people. One of the things that I really wished had happened years ago was for someone to do an oral history of this neighborhood, because just 5 or 10 years ago there were people who had lived here all their lives, and they were in their 80’s. What a rich heritage that would be, that they had seen this neighborhood from basically when it began and when it moved through difficult times. It’s too bad that those kinds of histories are lost. So I would like for no more histories to be lost”
