Summary

Here is my ‘review’ - perhaps ‘appraisal’ or ‘observations’ would be a better way of describing it - of the documentary ‘Mark - A Call to Action’, about my friend, the late Dr. Mark Bookman, which I hope receives wider attention. At the beginning and end of the podcast episode, there are audio extracts from Carolyn Stevens, Professor of Japanese Studies and Director of the Japanese Studies Centre at Monash University, Australia, speaking at Sophia University, Yotsuya Campus on February 25th 2024 after a showing of the film. Before he died, Mark was working on a new project; an organisation called ‘GLIDE’ that would help organisations such as governments & businesses be inclusive of people with disabilities.
