It’s Not like the Academy Awards
How do you know if you won a battle at city hall? Maybe someday they will pass a resolution, as they might for Arnold Hano’s 99
th birthday and give a tribute. But all those other nights of sitting there and testifying produce little acknowledgment. “Did we win?” It’s very clear when there’s a loss. The tree we’re trying to save gets cut down. The historic cottage gets demolished. The application for community assistance funds gets rejected.
The victories are almost a secret perhaps not to offend the opposing parties, or acknowledge that the Council is actually doing what the citizen testifiers recommended. Sometimes the victory just postpones an unpopular proposal which hibernates to rise another day.
A lifetime achievement award will be presented to the American Jewish TV producer Norman Lear at this year’s Golden Globes ceremonies on Feb. 28, and it may be time to wonder whether Lear’s fierce optimism was fully deserved by the nation he has devoted himself to for almost a century.
Born in 1922, Lear was the presiding force behind such landmark sitcoms as “All in the Family,” “Sanford and Son,” “The Jeffersons,” “Good Times” and “Maude.”
The resolve that Lear showed in flying combat missions as a radio operator/gunner on B-17 Flying Fortress bombers during World War II was later expressed in broaching controversial racial and gender issues.
