National Brotherhood Week was a community-building event dreamed up by the National Conference of Christians and Jews, which itself formed in response to anti-Catholic sentiments directed at Al Smith when he ran for the Democratic Presidential nomination in 1928. The NCCJ is still around today, but Brotherhood Week hasn't been celebrated in over thirty years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Conference_for_Community_and_Justice http://www.chicagonow.com/not-for-jews-only/2013/02/national-brotherhood-week-123/ The week itself, though, is probably best remembered thanks to it being lampooned by master satirist Tom Lehrer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Vm-8eXFgqA

gfanikf posted:"lovely Hippie Music" No problem! It's the least I could do to thank you for posting all these PSAs--they're actually great reading, and I haven't seen one yet that couldn't still be applied today in some fashion.

Aww, I like it. A sweet little moment is an excellent way of describing that.

Don't forget the X-Wing books. Those were great.

That's a sweet scene, and also "Bouquet" actually strikes me as a really solid superhero name for a flower-based hero.

AnonSpore posted:I thought Harleen Quinzel was not that kind of doctor either She's not, but she's probably closer to it than Dr. Fate. She's at least in a medical field and possibly has some on-site hospital training, whereas Fate's a professor-style doctor. Edit: Exit Strategy posted:Isn't she an MD as well as a Ph.D.? This might also be true.

I'm pretty sure this was so much the case that SOMETHING along those lines was in the big DC Encyclopedia I had in high school. Probably false memory, though. A good rendition here, though.
