Here you will meet Gale Brubaker a remarkable women who does just about everything for this group.  Her knowledge base is amazing and what she says about the history of the Jordan House, it's first occupants and their dedication to abolishing slavery is remarkable. In addition Gail drops a  serious name: abolitionist John Brown. Finally one thing she said has stuck with me since doing this interview, "We all make history everyday. We just don't think we do."  Meet Gail Brubaker:
