Hi All,
Jose Julio gave two talks yesterday, both of which were very successful. The first was to a group of about 100 students, faculty, and others on the University of Arkansas Campus. This was probably one of the larger audiences at the University on any subject to do with Latin America. The second was to a smaller group of local peace activists. He was great. The format of brief introduction/context, followed by video, followed by Jose Julio talking and answering questions seemed to work well for all involved. Both audiences were very moved by the talk.
Jose Julio is holding up well. He got some rest, we hiked a bit in the Arkansas outback, and he got to see the area. We've also called his home in Colombia every day which he really seems to like.
We have a few little things to do here to day and then he is off to the airport and Los Angeles.
Best, Steve
