“The Boys in the Boat”

The Boys in the Boat is a true story based on the struggles and sacrifices made by the University of Washington rowing team to compete at rowing at the 1936 Summer Olympics – Men’s eight.

Joseph Sutton-Holcomb from The Seattle Times writes that author Daniel James Brown got the idea to write this book when his neighbor Judy Willman said that her father, Joe Rantz, was a fan of his works and wanted to have a conversation with the author. That conversation with Joe Rantz about life during the Great Depression led to an in-depth chat about his time as a rower at the University of Washington.

Gershwin Concerto in F

George Gershwin’s “Concerto in F” holds immense significance in American culture. Composed in 1925, it bridged the gap between classical and popular music, epitomizing the spirit of the Jazz Age.

The concerto showcased Gershwin’s unique ability to blend classical orchestration with jazz-infused rhythms and melodies, captivating audiences and critics alike. It became a symbol of American innovation, reflecting the energy and vitality of a rapidly evolving society. Gershwin’s work not only influenced subsequent American composers but also helped legitimize jazz as a sophisticated art form.

Listed in fair, but not entirely accurate, chronological order. No claim that they are in any order of importance.

These proposals frequently change names because they change scope, find new or additional sponsors and then change names. Few — less than 10 percent — become law. Concepts within them may be incorporated into existing public law or inspire changes to existing law. In all cases you must be mindful of Orwellian deception and dark money flow. Wish it weren’t so.
