TCCC Program Night on September 22nd. 7:30 pm.

"Faces of China"
Gerald and Marcella Martin, Associates of the Photographic Society of America, an
International Degree of Honor, will present "Faces Of China", a land of one
billion, 300 million persons in a land about the size of the United States. 80% live
in the eastern third of the country, 75% of the entire population still lives on
farms with much hard labor. The contrasts between the poor of rural China, for
example, men seen pulling plows, and the ultra-high-tech commerce and wealth of Hong
Kong, are presented in brilliant color with traditional music, and a commentary that
shares Martins' excitement in learning about the cultures.
