DoomsdaysCW<p>[Thread] So, it took having to do a search on the website, but I managed to find the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackHistoryMonth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackHistoryMonth</span></a> audio archives on the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WMPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WMPG</span></a> website.

If you are in the NYC area and enjoy dance, there's one week left for the Alvin Ailey company's season at City Center in Manhattan. Some new works this year as well as the old favorites. Ashley Kaylynn Green and Alisha Rena Peek are outstanding performers. A dance called TREADING is on the schedule, which is my all time favorite non-Ailey choreographed piece and rarely performed. It's very physical and erotic. Well worth the ticket.</p>
