"I'm Not Ol', I'm Vintage!" -It's a Celebration!

Wow! What a year for black culture huh? First a the first president of color gets sworn in. Then the world's famous Apollo turns 75 years of age. Both Motown and Alvin Ailey mark their 50th anniversary. Last night the NAACP hit their 1ooth year being around! And now what better benchmark for our people to raise their hands in praise of forward movement during Black History Month...KING magazine is releasing issue no.# 50th soon! We shall overcome...our lust for big booties! YES we can...buy two issues! Keep hope alive...that's it's not sold out already!

"Alvinnn!!!" -Alvin Ailey Comes to Brooklyn

No silly, Alvin Ailey is NOT the black version of those singing Chipmunks. However what it is is the legendary American Dance Theater group that will be performing down at BAM for all of 6 days in June (3-8). One week only! So if I were you (which I'm glad I'm not) I'd make a bee line to get tickets NOW! Discounts are being offered to groups of 10 or more that wish to attend. Read on for more details.
