Kim made a comment about your link: "Wanda, I loved your show today on the Araceli Theater, and not just because I'm the publicist. Also, the spiritual music was just great. Thank you. The gentleman who lost his son to cancer had a very selfless, and loving story."

King Sunny Ade in concert was one of the best birthday presents I could have given myself! We arrived just as the set was about to begin, and for the next 2-plus hours he danced and sang me into the next day-- He even has a song on the reissue of his Seven Degrees"Congratulations" (Happy Birthday). Yes, and the CD arrived on Juneteenth just before I left for the concert. I got it autographed...and now wait for 11 AM to arrive for an interview to be aired later. It was the best party ever!

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society, specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers. It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true heroes. Ashay!

    From the archives will feature rare audio interviews from artists and revolutionary thinkers I've interviewed in the past ten or so years (2009-1998). Each show will be just an hour, but in that hour these artists and culture workers will share perspectives on life I treasure as I'm sure you will.
