Support for forum comes from Broadway SF, presenting Parade, the musical revival based on a true story.

From three-time Tony-winning composer Jason Robert Brown comes the story of Leo and Lucille Frank,

a newlywed Jewish couple struggling to make a life in Georgia. When Leo is accused of an

unspeakable crime, it propels them into an

unimaginable test of faith, humanity, justice, and devotion. The riveting and gloriously hopeful

parade plays the Orpheum Theater for three weeks only, May 20th through June 8th. Tickets

on sale now at Broadwaysf.com.

Welcome back to Forum on Michael Krasny. We turn our attention now to President Biden's plan to slow the spread of coronavirus,

which includes more federal oversight of vaccination and vaccinating 100 million

Apollo's Arrow, the profound

and enduring impact of coronavirus on the way we live. And welcome Nicholas Christakis. Good to have

and that ties in in ways that are fascinating to me.
