Pardon my spousal pride. But our home town, Lexington, as part of the  town history   project“Lexington Remembers” interviewed my wife, Sophia,    for her 40+ years of community service to the town and to local  Chinese American  population of the town. The interview video is available on  : http://vp.telvue.com/preview?id=T01123&video=201354. The interview may be of general interest since it chronicles  the history of the Chinese Americans population of the town and its development of i nvolvement in town and community affairs through voluntary service, donations,  and  participation – an example of how a minority becoming mainstream America.  Small town public and political affairs are non-partisan and democracy in its purest form   and where individual efforts can make a difference and have influence.  Viewing the  video may also help with your English comprehension. (The interviewer is Den Fenn, a noted resident of the town over 90+ years of age. He was one of the "new frontiers men" served in the Kenndedy-Johnson adminstration from 1961-1969).
