"The Magnificent Ambersons" Message

Picture of the title page for The Magnificent Ambersons.


Last night we watched the excellent "The Magnificent Ambersons" (library DVD) based on the book of the same name by Booth Tarkington.   I had recently read the book.  The movie and book made me think of Mitt Romney and his seemingly inability to connect with who don't live in his world.  Not only is it important for our Esperanza scholars and their families from different socioeconomic worlds to come to Esperanza but we need to find ways for them to get to know each other.  It is only when they are able to relate to each other that we can all truly support one another.
