๐๐ฅ๐ฅIn this rare footage from The Music Factory (TMF), Isaac Hayes conducts a full band and orchestra while composing "Theme from Shaft"โone of the most iconic songs of the 1970s.
Released in 1971, the song combines wah-wah funk, cinematic spirit, and symphonic tension into a new form of sonic storytelling.

โBut whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting lifeโ (John 4:14).

A portrait of the Prophet Joseph Smith was added to the International Hall of Honor in Morehouse Collegeโs Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel in Atlanta, Georgia, on Sunday, February 1, 2026.
The hall includes more than 300 oil portraits of global leaders of the international civil and human rights movement. A portrait of the late President Russell M. Nelson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was added to the historically Black collegeโs hall in 2023. Josephโs portrait will go between President Nelson and Abraham Lincoln.

Dr. Lawrence Edward Carter Sr., dean of the Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel, called Smithโs plan to abolish slavery โamong the most morally ambitious proposals of the antebellum era.โ
