Bicycling the Political Divides in the United States- Anne Winkler-Morey

Anne Winkler-Morey has a PhD from the University of Minnesota and taught history and ethnic studies at colleges and Universities in the Twin Cities for three decades. In the 1980s she was the Director of the Central America Resource Center in Minneapolis and in 2010 she was instigator of the National Ethnic Studies Week. Her Minneapolis Interview Project includes 100 life stories with a social justice lens. She lives in Minneapolis with her spouse, David. In 2011-2012, they rode the contiguous perimeter of the United States. Allegiance to Winds and Waters: Bicycling the Political Divides of the United States is her story of that trip.

"I have been thinking about super-spreader events. Not the kind that makes hundreds of people sick, but the kind that transforms lives in a good way. Justice-rippling events: prayer vigils, Zoom gatherings, marches, rallies at the Capitol, where we the people, super-spread our messages of the world we are building. Though we may never trace each drop and wave — we know, there will be ripples."
