At the Read-In

In the gallery exhibiting the photography of Louis Draper and the Kamoinge Workshop, Richmond mayor Levar Stoney recited the poem “Let America be America Again” by Langston Hughes and Louis Draper’s sister Nell Draper-Winston shared memories of meeting Langston Hughes who served as a mentor to her brother.
there is a certain poignancy to the photo of the lady on the right. I cannot help but feel a little sadness too as "Let America be America Again" is the sort of statement Trump would steal .
Bravo for this allison

Hate what is happening at Monroe park. Mixed feelings about Stoney, but I bet it made for a great day!

@phil_howcroft If you have a chance to see the video I posted https://youtu.be/406x4gbHAJM you can hear that to poet Langston Hughes that America never existed for him and other minorities.
