"the crucifixion of Robert Lewis" mixed media collage with leaves, acrylic paint, and found objects by gregory a milinovich october 2023 this october i was invited to participate in a three day trip which was called a "pilgrimage of pain and hope." while that may not sound super exciting to many of you, it actually really intrigued me. i am the kind of person that wants to feel big feelings, and i am drawn to the deep places, so i was interested in traveling to the scranton area, where the trip was planned, to see what it might look like to be a pilgrim that was wide-eyed and listening to the pain and the hope in the stories of others. this trip included hearing the stories of immigrants to the northeastern pennsylvania area, and the work in the coal mines that many of them did. it included hearing from folks who are working for housing justice and equity in downtown scranton. it included hearing from those indigenous people who first inhabited that land.

How exciting! Congrats! What a big secret to be holding onto. Will you be posting more in depth on this?
Can I have your autograph?
I just went back to that link to "read the first chapter..."
Then I saw the fine print disclosure at the bottom.
I kept wondering why nothing happened no matter what I clicked on...
You are a real trip, Greg.
A real trip.
And I'm real naive.
I hope you'll still sign my copy....
couldn't resist. i didn't think people would really believe me, so i feel bad. a little. and just a real little.
but maybe someday i will write a book. then i will give you a copy. after i sign it.
