Chicago Way w/John Kass: The voice of my father and where it all began
Manage episode 430266386 series 3312411
The Palikari Project: Part I – Rizes | Thirty-five years ago in Oak Lawn, John Kass & his brother Nicholas set a card table with coffee, cigarettes, & a tap recorder, hoping to capture their family’s story from a primary source, their father, Spyros John Kass. The tapes were part of an art project John’s wife Betty put together, a ballet. But the tapes were thought lost and the voice of the Kass patriarch with them after his death in 1992. This is part one those recordings wherein we learn about family’s rural beginnings, life at the ‘root of the mountain,’ and what happens when fascists coming knocking on your door.
