April 10th is my Mommy's birthday and National Siblings Day. My mother and the person was intents and purposes, my sibling, but biologically my uncle and parrain, are both ancestors. This year, that day would also be the day my alma mater would celebrate Founders Day. As I watched the Convocation with fellow Spelman Sisters, I was overcome with emotion. From Resonance's moving spoken word and spirituals filled memorial, the honorees' uplifting reflections, charges, and words of affirmation; "A Choice to Change the World," and the Spelman Hymn, I was assured and comforted because I was nestled in my beloved community. My aloneness and my loneliness took a second seat. There IS a balm in Gilead. To keep it all in perspective, I think of my Spelman Sister and AKA Soror Dr. Christine who also knows grief profoundly. If five years has been hell for me, 50 years... What manner of woman is she? #ComeYeDisconsolate #FeastOnYourLife #UndauntedByTheFight #SpelmanFoundersDay #HesTheOne #QueSeraSera #FortressAroundYourHeart #LookToTheRainbow #LoafofBreadContainerofMilkStickofButter #Magnificat #NoLoveDying (at Elysian Fields Avenue)

Happy Founders Day @Spelman_College! The elegant and historic Sisters Chapel was dedicated in 1927 and serves as the Spelman College’s main gathering space for convocations, performances, and worship services. Fifty years ago, from April 5 - 8, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s body laid in state at Sisters Chapel where thousands came to pay their last respects. At that time, there was no other facility that could host this historical moment.
