Picked this one up the other day.
The Hardest Deal of All: the Battle Over School Integration In Mississippi, 1870-1980 by Charles C. Bolton.
I'm on the second page of the Introduction and...
I thought I read this too, but it's also a documentary, so maybe I only saw the doc. Sans you're killing the reading game. I used to read a ton of books. The internet has zapped a lot of my attention...
Sans I think I read this, but can't remember. Saw the movie.
Is this where some guy went nuts and killed a woman and children? Or am I mixing up my architects?
Diana did what Diana was supposed to do. Can't fault her for the work she put in. But you're right, with the big guy in her corner [[and eventually in her bed...or was it his bed?) she knew the sky...
As I suspected. It's always a red flag when someone tries to prevent family from accessing their loved one. But it is a comfort to know that it appears things are being righted for Cindy. Her son is...
Is that your endorsement of him maybe taking over as lead when Jean left?:p
I don't think it would've mattered to BG if Flo and Mary were as "dedicated" [[and I use that term for lack of a better one) as Diana. He zeroed in on Diana at a certain point because she had that...
I don't even think it's that deep. I'm sure, like most of us when someone we know passes away, Diana looked back over her relationship with Florence and then Mary in totality, the good and the bad. I...
I have no issues with there being multiple possible explanations for any one thing and was unaware that I put out the vibe that my opinions are factual and outrank anyone else's. I'll have to be more...
On the R&B chart? Not Soft Cell. Lol
More good advice.
I would add, though, that when choosing family, do so only if they can be trusted. There are some ruthless demons out there who would rob and discard a relative faster than some...
We have no idea why Aretha did what she did, so "playing games" is a conclusion without evidence. And the fact that she was suffering from cancer, under a lot of mental anguish on top of the meds and...
All good advice. The issue is that when people are concerned about their next meal, keeping a roof over their heads, electric bills, tuition, etc, the last thing on a lot of people's minds are "What...
The former- It lists the 25 most popular R&B songs, calculated weekly by airplay on rhythmic and urban radio stations, digital download sales and streaming data.
The latter- Top-downloaded R&B and...
Mary was so vivacious. She oozed life of the party. Here we are three years later and it still doesn't seem real. Whenever I watch an old Supremes performance, it seems so weird to think that the...
As far as Aretha goes, she had a will. Why she stuffed it in the couch cushions, only the Queen knows. But she made her wishes known regarding her properties and her music via the will, which a court...
A lot of people are too busy trying to live to worry about dying. Cindy apparently wasn't a wealthy woman, although she may have been comfortable. She had a ministry, which likely took up a lot of...
Forgive me if this was posted about previously, but I don't recall us talking about it. Apparently, in 2021, "Where Did Our Love Go" charted on Billboard's R&B Digital Song Sales and R&B/HipHop...
No, no I don't think I do. Lol
Aww man, but I hate half the movie. Once Tracy goes to Europe, I'm bored out of my mind. Lol
Well now that her son is in charge, hopefully no more vultures can get to Cindy. Looks like the family is rallying around her.
All of this, especially "sequinsier". Lol
Diana's eventual exit was very strategic, and I do think that included Cindy. Flo's replacement could not be another Florence, someone outspoken and with a big personality. Whoever she was would have...
Sup, we're saying the same thing. There was a change between the Supremes of 64/65, from the girls next door, to the more womanly Supremes of 66/67.
