Tina Brown on Christmas in America

For the New Yorkers especially, a nice piece in London's The Spectator on why we're different... And Bruce and Rosemary Harris's work to establish the Chalula Community Library in Tanzania is featured! Hats off to all the Chalula donors, and especially the village leadership in Mvumi, including the indefatigable Joseph Biseko. Here's one more picture from Chalula, at the opening last week. Enjoy the holiday season.

Very cool mention indeed. Hooray to the Spectator for plumping up Chalula, favl, and American generosity.
