AMAZING DAY!!! Decided to have "church" with art, literature and music....so I attended the "Now Dig This" exhibit (for a second time) at the UCLA Hammer Museum, curated by Amiri Baraka's daughter, Kellie Jones, a writer and art historian in her own right. Got a chance to briefly chat with Mr. Baraka after listening to him share his thoughts on America, African American Art and the struggle of being an artist in America. Picked up a copy of "Somebody Blew Up America" and was honored that he autographed it for me. I also gave him a copy of my CD.
Afterwards, I drove home guided by a beautiful full moon while listening to Abbey Lincoln. Everything in the Universe felt like it had been turned right side up again...
