A farewell and amen to 4 remarkable journalists

Dear D&C Subscribers -- The Democrat and Chronicle said farewell this autumn to four fabulous journalists, three of whom have retired from the business and one of whom has left for a job in which she will very much be partnering with the D&C. Saying goodbye to trusted and long-time colleagues is never easy, in any walk of life. My mind drifts back to the title of the riveting final episode in 1983 of “M A S H” – “Goodbye, Farewell and Amen.” As a young adult, I was among those who believed the show about life during the Korean War had lost some of its luster by its later seasons. Yet that unforgettable last episode reminded me and all of us how strong the bonds had been among the characters and between the viewers and the characters. Its uniquely crafted narrative brought the best of all those earlier episodes back into view, enabling us to cherish the remarkable memories and mourn in a meaningful way the show’s end. So it is with saying goodbye to these four colleagues: Marcia Greenwood , the New York News Publishers Association features-writing award winner in 2021 and a reporter who’s known what Rochesterians

Rochester Reads turns its sights to Gaza

Rochester Reads is celebrating 25 years of asking the community to read one book – and then come together to discuss it. This year, Writers & Books has selected two titles — one being Omar El Akkad’s “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This.” El Akkad has described the book as a kind of breakup letter with the West. He writes of the devastation in Gaza and the plight of the Palestinian people. Writers & Books says the book “underscores literature’s capacity to bear witness to the lives, places, and issues that are often left in the margins.”
