Hello, and welcome to cool people who did cool stuff.

Your weekly reminder that when there's bad things happening, there's people trying to do good

things.

I am your host, Margaret Kiljoy.

And this week, I am talking to one of those people who has done,

I believe, a good thing. Because I like interviewing historians. And this week, I'm interviewing

a historian. I am interviewing Molly Crabapple. Hi, how are you? Hey, Megpie. How you doing?

I'm good. I realize I'm about to do to you something that people do to me all the time,

which is remember the gist of the title of the thing we're going to be talking about.

All the time, people are like, I love your podcast, cool people who are cool or whatever.

Okay, Molly is holding up the book so I can remember.

Molly is the author of the upcoming book, Here Where We Live is Our Country, the

story of the Jewish Bund.

That's right.

And when does that book come out?

This book, my precious book baby that I worked seven years on, comes out on April 7th.

This is really exciting to me.

For full disclosure, I'm about a third of the way through this book.

It is a longer and very complete book than I had anticipated when I planned my scheduling poorly.
