Welcome to my channel!
The mission is simple: to spread the awesomeness of our beautiful and diverse people. (Note, this is not at the exclusion of other groups, but this is our space.) I pretty much started creating content after asking myself the question as it relates to the ills of our society "Well, what are you doing about it?"
This was my response.
Hopefully, my message is not delivered in a high-handed, sanctimonious manner, but in a palpable (and maybe even humorous at times) way. I try and keep it light on all the "heavy stuff", but my ideologies will present themselves from time to time. Most notably: my full-on love for all things Black! Just trying to highlight the good in all of us.
This is my lane...
My contribution...
My therapy.

William Grant Still Jr. (May 11, 1895 - December 3, 1978) was an American composer who created nearly two hundred works, including five symphonies, four ballets, nine operas, over thirty choral pieces, art songs, chamber music, and solo compositions. Born in Mississippi and raised in Little Rock, Arkansas, he studied at Wilberforce University and the Oberlin Conservatory of Music under George Whitefield Chadwick and later Edgard Varèse. Still's close collaboration with notable African-American literary and cultural figures places him firmly within the Harlem Renaissance movement.
