A conversation with my father.
Robert ( Bob) Levine was born on December 16th, 1929 in Brooklyn , New York. His father , Julius , was a Certified Public Accountant by profession, his mother ,Tess , was a homemaker and president of the P.T.A and both my grandparents were constantly volunteering for the many organizations that supported the causes they believed in.
Their commitment to social activism was passed down to my father and his siblings and then to me and it is my hope that my children will continue that legacy- to be activists for the things they believe in and to use their voices even when others wish it to be silenced.
During the Covid- 19 pandemic my visits with my parents were limited to good weather days when we could be outside with each other and talk from a distance. This conversation was recorded during one of those visits in December of 2020 at their home.
