With deep thanks to my friend Leslie Mardenborough, I saw my first Sweet Honey in the Rock concert. I have three of their CDs and songs from four others, but I had never seen them live. What an amazing treat! Also, this was my first time at Symphony Space. More CDs will follow as will, hopefully, more visits to Symphony Space.

It has been years since the American Museum of Natural History received a visit. The children were, well, children.
Today’s visit was to see some of the Kwanzaa exhibit.

We Meet Again Tour – 4 July 2018
The tour took a short walk, a couple of blocks uptown, and downhill, to West 125th and Broadway. There it joined Mama Ruby Sales and the Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis, the founding directors of the Vincent and Rosemarie Harding Center for Social and Spiritual Restoration, for a Mourn-in and Day of Fasting to #EndFamilySeparation.
We gathered outside the Cayuga Center where children separated from their parents at the border are reportedly held during the day.
We called for:
an end to this unjust and cruel separation
a renewal of democracy
the strength to stay on the battlefield of justice until we win
We affirmed that:
God is love
And all who abide in love
Abide in God
And God in us
We proclaimed that:
The walls that they build
To tear us apart
Will never be as strong as
The walls of our hearts
The desert is hot
But we are the rain

We Meet Again Tour – 9 June 2018, #2
The tour wandered down Broadway, via the Subway, to visit the new H-Mart located at 110th. The store has been there for a while, but this was the first visit. And the first visit to any H-Mart.
Wonderful foods lined the shelves. Some were avoided because of their calorie count. More were not selected because they were unknown. Work is needed in that area.
But there was kimchi! And it was good.

After the visit to the H-Mart, the tour wandered around Morningside Gardens. Photos of flowers proved the order of the day.
