Thank you, Alice Green

Thank you, Alice Green, for writing a very kind letter to the editor, published in the Times Union on Sunday, Oct. 22, 2017.
For those of you visiting from out of town, Alice Green is the founder and executive director of The Center for Law and Justice, a not-for-profit community organization, and a longtime activist fighting against racism and issues of criminal justice.
We were pleased to see her at several of the Telling the Truth seminars earlier this month.


Headline: Grondahl's astute leadership a light

Text: How fortunate we are to have Paul Grondahl in our Capital Region community. For years, he has served us as a top-notch journalist, exploring and closely examining the human condition of people around the world and in our own community.
He now serves as the executive director of the New York State Writers Institute at the University of Albany. There for only a few months he has already given new life and meaning to the institute. The recent symposium, "Telling the Truth in a Post-Truth World," is a perfect example. Under his capable, astute and creative leadership, the symposium was a smashing success — well attended and deeply informative and engaging.
We need Grondahl's honest, intelligent and responsible approach to providing truthful information more than ever during this dark period in our country.
