Reverend Donna Schaper: Grass Roots Gardening
In 2003, Minister Donna Schaper wrote an op-ed for The New York Times detailing her rejection from the Coral Gables Garden Club. It seems that the ladies of the club thought she'd bring inappropriate people into the club (meaning gays and blacks). In Grassroots Gardening: Rituals for Sustaining Activism (Avalon, $13.95), Minister Schaper argues that gardening is a way to sustain activism. It's a ritual for radicals -- urbans, nomads, and for anybody who is sufficiently angry. Meet the author at Books And Books, 265 Aragon at 4pm. Call 305-442-4408. http://www.booksandbooks.com
