Hazel Scott w/Charles Mingus and Rudy Nichols. "Foggy Day"

Originally from Trinidad and Tobago, classical and jazz musician Hazel Scott became one of America's premier pianists of her time. Born on June 11, 1920, this child prodigy first started tickling the ivories at age 3 under the guidance of her mother. She moved with her family to the U.S. in 1924 where she started performing in New York City and receiving scholarships to study classical music at the Juilliard School of Music -- all of this by age 8. Her mentors in jazz technique were Art Tatum and Teddy Wilson. Topping her talents off with a warm singing voice to complement her glamorous presence, she was a club and radio star by the late 30s and performed with such notables as Count Basie. She gained some attention for her swinging versions of classical themes. Hazel appeared in the productions "Singing Out the News" and "Priorities of 1942" on Broadway and played twice at Carnegie Hall. As a sometime actress, Hazel became a noted specialty performer in musical motion pictures, including "Something to Shout About" (1943), "I Dood It" (1943) and "Broadway Rhythm" (1944) during the war-era while releasing dozens of albums during her prime. Her most famous hit was "Tico Tico" and her catchy boogie-woogie style proved quite popular during the 40s, while her versatility and ability to shift from jazz to classical to blues was incomparable. Hazel married the Rev. Adam Clayton Powell Jr., noted Congressman, preacher and editor in 1945. She became the first black woman to host her own television show in 1950 but, within months, the show was canceled. An outspoken personality all her life, she was subsequently accused of being a Communist sympathizer. She refused to perform in segregated theaters and became a vocal critic of both McCarthyism and racial injustice. Following her divorce from Powell, she lived in Paris where she performed and enjoyed racial freedom during the 1960s. Her return to the U.S. marked a second career on TV with guest parts on such shows as Julia (1968) and The Bold Ones: The New Doctors (1969) coming her way. Scott continued to perform in clubs until her death from cancer in 1981. ---from http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0779220/bio

The World's Highest Ranking Alien Believer

I'm a witness and a believer in aliens. I also believe that the word "magic" is nothing more than the term given to phenomena that man does not understand.The word "alien" is used in much the same way. God, my creator, created all that exists, on earth, in and all the galaxies, universes, including the aliens. Be not deceived, God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he reap. He who sows in iniquity shall reap in vanity. It's the master plan. (This video is from truththeory.com.)

Lily's Disneyland Surprise!

Psalms 37:4 "Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart." I believe that heaven's gates can be opened by those who delight themselves in the Lord. Just as this child is so delighted in her mother's goodness that her delight results in an emotional overflow, so it shall be with us. When we see the goodness of God, his grace and mercy at work, and begin to realize just how much he has compassion for us. we will begin to delight and to follow him. That is when our hearts become transformed and his promise sure!

Twinkie Clark - I Found Jesus

It's a popular misconception that Black people cannot unite for
anything! Some believe it's because of the crab syndrome. Others believe
it's due to the far-reaching vestiges of slave mentality. It is time to
call the devil a Liar. We unify more than most people in doing what we
band together to do--every year. Who? The National Baptist Convention,
The Church of God In Christ, the Pentecostal Assemblies of the World,
Nation of Islam convention, the AMEZion church, etc. The list of Black
religious and secular organizations who conduct yearly conferences is
vast and many have attendees numbering into the tens of thousands. The
stereotype that we can't unify for anything is a blatant LIE! More on
this topic will be forthcoming. --Charles R. Alexander
