Out & About with Brotha Ash

This week I visited the Shadow Lounge in East Liberty, Club 21 in the Strip District, The Black Beauty Lounge in the Hill District, CJ’s in the Strip District and the Centre Avenue Outreach Center in the Hill District.

My first stop was the Black Beauty Lounge in the Hill District where karaoke was in full effect. Everyone came out to see if they could be a star for a day. It was a great time for everyone.

Cover To Cover...‘Walk Like You Have Somewhere to Go’

With truly mixed feelings, you awaited the day.

On one hand, you couldn’t wait to see your child take his first steps. It was you, after all, who helped him practice by holding his little fingers as he tippy-toed between your knees.

On the other hand, you knew that as soon as he took those first steps, nothing would be safe any more, including him. Not only could he reach for breakable things, but he could also reach for the stars.

I refused to celebrate the 4th of July!

Dear Gwendolyn:

My great-grandmother is 102 years old, my grandmother is 75, and my mother is 40. This is my problem: My mother is angry with me because I didn’t celebrate the 4th of July at the big gathering at grandma’s house. I tried to tell my mother that the 4th of July is not for Black people. It is not our holiday and I only celebrate Black holidays. Gwendolyn, am I wrong?—Sam
