Saturday coffee.
Connecticut Abolitionist Roger Baldwin.
We’re staying at the Downtown Marriott, a large hotel attached to the Hartford Convention Center. The Connecticut Republicans are holding their state convention here this weekend. The hotel is full of them. Connecticut Republicans. They just sort of moved the Greenwich Country Club membership an hour to the north. It is the largest assembly of blue blazers, pressed Dockers and penny loafers in the universe.
This is not in the tradition of progressive Connecticut. The state was the home of Roger Baldwin, one of the
Old school.
