Three Things

Bizet’s Carmen with oodles of Dandridge, a handful of Belafonte (yes, please) and a sprinkle of the original Black Swans (Diahann Carroll, Pearl Bailey & Carmen De Lavallade). Double dare you not to swoon.

Room and Board’s 2013 Collection: I’ve seen it and I wept like Steve Harvey.

Nine days, two hours and ten minutes until Puppy Bowl IX. (The Atlantic)

Marian Anderson, singing during an Easter Sunday concert on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on April 9, 1939. The concert was broadcast on the radio across the nation and the integrated audience of 75,000 including members of the Supreme Court, Congress, and President Roosevelt’s cabinet. The concert was organized after the Daughters of the American Revolution refused to allow Ms. Anderson to sing to an integrated audience at Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C. solely because of her race.
