Gil Scott-Heron is Dead OR What Will Happen to Your Revolution

 I don’t usually blog on the weekends, but beginning yesterday morning, my heart, my soul rather, i don’t actually know, but a deep part of me was experiencing a sort of heaviness akin to mourning. I assumed it was because of my grandmother.  Or perhaps because of the passing of my aunt/sister/friend.  Or because in [...]
