This week in America it is Brotherhood Week, a week to remind everybody that they should love each other like a brother. Luigi is writing to his mama in Italy about it and about when he first arrived in Chicago and right away got to know a German fellow, a Swedish, a Spanish fellow and a Hungarian and how now at his night school it is like the United Nations. To celebrate Brotherhood week Luigi's night school class are going to put on a play about George Washington and Luigi is going to write it. He has an idea to include all nationalities in his play and to show the contribution of all Americans he wants to include Henry Clark, a Negro in Mr Heinz's class, to play the part of Crispus Attucks, a Negro, who was considered the first American killed in the revolution in 1770 in the Boston Massacre. Luigi just wants to show the good that happened in the country by everyone, all Americans of every creed.
