Back on March 13, 1964, Kitty Genovese was attacked and killed. We now have a somewhat different view of the events surrounding her death, particularly the issue of "bystander apathy". For example, see: http://kewgardenshistory.com/ss-nytimes-3.html
And others remember the event in their own way. For example, see: http://deathaday.blogspot.com/2008/03/march-13-kitty-genovese.html Of renewed relevance to younger folks, she plays a minor role in the "Watchmen" graphic novel: see: http://www.scifimoviepage.com/upcoming/previews/watchmen-2.html Make it "help a stranger" day. -Mike Palij New York University [email protected] --- To make changes to your subscription contact: Bill Southerly ([email protected])
