Jodi Picoult “Small Great Things”

Ruth Jefferson is labor and delivery nurse at the Connecticut hospital with more than twenty years’ experience. During her routine checkup on a newborn, only to get told that she’s been reassigned to another patient. The family is white and don’t want Ruth, who is African American, touching their child. The hospital obeys their request, but the next day the baby goes into cardiac distress while Ruth is along in the nursery. Does she obey the orders?

Ruth suddenly hesitates before performing CPR, as a result is charged with a serious crime. Kennedy McQuarrie, a white public defender, takes her case but gives unex-pected advice: McQuarrie insists that mentioning race in the courtroom is not a win-ning strategy. Ruth tries to keep life as normal as possible for her family-especially her teenage son-as the case becomes a media sensation. As the trial moves forward, Ruth and Kennedy must gain each other’s trust, and come to see that what they’ve been taught their whole lives about others-and themselves-might be wrong.

Jodi Picouit tackles race, privilege, prejudice, justice and compassion-and doesn’t offer easy answers.

This month the HSC Library will be commemorating Easter day with Andrew Lloyd Webbers classic, Jesus Christ Superstar.

Jesus Christ Superstar started in 1973, with Jesus Christ (Ted Neeley) the perspective of Judas

Iscariot (Carl Anderson) as his betrayer. The stage is success examines the last weeks of life for

Jesus. Judas beings to worry that Jesus is falling for his own type, forgetting the principles of

teachings and growing too close to Mary Magdalene (Yvonne Elliman). Suddenly, Jesus has an

outburst in the temple, Judas than turns on him.

This dazzling film is rock opera that is located in Israel, producer-director Norman Jewison

creates a brilliant example of modern movie. Along with the making of groundbreaking vision

and songs of Rice and Webber. There are no spoken lines, everything is sung.

Jesus walks back to the camp,

Mary wraps him in a tattered

blanket and sings to him as he lies

under a tent. As he sleeps, she

muses about her love for Jesus,

which than confuses and frightens

her.
