Food for thought ... for us all to chew over

[The Langston Hughes Review @LangstonReview]

Gil Scott-Heron really admired Langston Hughes and he elaborated on Hughes's model in both form & content. One of the implicit questions Scott-Heron raised in "Ghetto Code" is what can be done about a problem? Not just saying repeatedly that it exists or analyzing how it began.

[Blue Note Records @bluenoterecords]

60 years ago today on May 27, 1961 #ArtBlakey & The Jazz Messengers recorded "The Freedom Rider." The powerful title track was a solo drum tour-de-force by Blakey that paid tribute to the brave Freedom Riders who began boarding buses earlier that month... (1/2)
