“Ending Redlining through a Community-Centered Reform of the Community Reinvestment Act,” book talk and signing with Morris author Josh Silver, Wednesday, August 27, 6:30 PM


 This author talk describes a new book, Ending Redlining through a Community-Centered Reform of the Community Reinvestment Act, and will explore how and why members of Congress and community-based organizations developed the CRA law that emphasizes community participation in stopping redlining and rebuilding neighborhoods experiencing discrimination.


This talk will explain:


 ·        What is redlining and how it devastates communities


·        Why CRA is relevant for rural areas and smaller towns as well as urban neighborhoods


·        How and why CRA was devised as a means to rectify redlining through community empowerment


·        The successes and limitations of CRA


·        An overview of the legislative and regulatory history of CRA since its enactment in 1977


·        Recommendations for updates to CRA, its application to other industries, and the current threats to CRA

Author, radio host and comedian Rich Cyr brings you his new paranormal talk titled “Do Ghosts Really Exist?” Morris Public Library, Wednesday, September 24, at 6:30 pm.


Rich has always had an interest in the paranormal - he is curious and wants to know if there is really something out there. Over the years, he has taken numerous ghost tours, has visited the famous Warrens’ house, stayed in the same room as the real Annabelle, interviewed Andrea Perron (the person the movie “The Conjuring” was based on), spent the weekend at the REAL CONJURING House in Rhode Island, had his real-life ghost story published in the book “True Ghost Stories of Connecticut.”


Complete with a slide show of his many travels, Rich will attempt to answer what everyone wants to know:


DO GHOSTS REALLY EXIST?!


About Rich:


Rich is an author, radio host, stand-up comedian, motivational speaker and actor. Rich’s two shows, The Claw’s Corner and REEL TALK air on YouTube, Patreon, Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Music, Audible, I-Heart Radio, as well as a local cable station. His published works include Confessions of a Frenetic Mind and a real-life ghost story featured in the book True Ghost Stories of Connecticut.
