Shen Yun Performing Arts Here Don't Miss It!

     Shen Yun Performing Arts, soon to be at the Merriam Theatre ( February 12^th through March 1, 2020,  here in Philadelphia, looks to be a fantastically expressive dance program exhibiting the Asian culture and respecting the ancient Asian traditions of dance and movement.  

     The last time this extraordinary dance troop was here I missed the show because I didn’t have the $80.00 to pay for the show. A woman on their commercials says ``everyone’’ should see the show to witness its perfection, class, distinction, and pageantry and color.

     If we can have a Mummers in Black face and a Mayor who comes on Black radio here to soft shoe about how it won’t happen next year, we can all witness the beauty of Shen Yun. As our world becomes perfect we must also advocate for an expansive, detailed, and modern Asian Museum here in Philadelphia, so more North Americans can learn more about the ancient history, and present situation of the Asian Peoples around the world. Asians are dealing in a positive Way with having wealth,&  a large population, but lacking in crop production, mineral & energy wealth needed to build and maintain their burgeoning  inner cities.

     Don’t miss Shen Yun in February and try some of the fantastic Asian food at 9^th and Vine’s Sang Kee’s Peking Duck House 238 North 9^th Street; -1 215 925 – 7532 ! See our review on our blog at http://ThePoliticsofREAL.BLOGSPOT.COM

Pastor Louise E. Williams Bishop

An Open Letter from GOD

January 26^th, 2020 Sunday

Sistah Reverend Louise E. Williams Bishop

( Live Long and Prosper ) 

Where and How does one begin to even say thank you for 60 plus years of reaching out through the Christian religion to inform, change, improve, and instill good values in People like myself who should have listened sooner.

A BIG HUG and a Thank you will be fine for a start.  I was in attendance at the Martin Luther Commemoration Day ceremony recently ( Last Monday the 20^th of January, 2020  ),at the MET on Broad Street,  when you got on your well-deserved High-Horse and told us folks about what a man Martin Luther King was ( He still exists in our memories as quite the man to emulate).

Eventually some BLACK historians will look at King’s life and recall Jesus Christ – if they haven’t as yet.

Some people look at King’s life with Coretta and discover there may have been a few things that could have gone better. I choose instead,  to overlook this and forgive someone who made such an incredible sacrifice as to actually give His life for BLACK people who were suffering from the traditional problems we think of when we think of BLACK people as we go on about our businesses of the day and seem to only remember shortly and infrequently.   

What I have notice, Pastor Williams, is that I don’t know KING!.... I go to Professor Tony MOntaro’s class every Saturday ( The Saturday Free School) and meet all kinds of young people from East India, China and Africa and they help me understand that I haven’t read KING’s books ``Where DO We Go from Here, Chaos or Community,’’; ``Why We Can’t Wait,’’;  ``A Time to Break the Silence: The Essential Works of Martin Luther King, Junior for Students ( King Legacy ),’’; ``A Call to Conscious: The Landmark Speeches of Doctor Martin Luther King, Junior,’’; ``A Gift of LOVe: Sermons from Strength to LOVe and Other preaching,’’ ;   ``The Measure of a Man,’’; ``The Trumpet of Conscious,’’ ; ``Thou Dear GOD,’’; ``Color of Democracy,’’ ; `` The World And Africa,’’.

I have no excuse as a BLACK thinker, BLACK radical & BLACK intellectual and activist for not reading the bulk of these books. There is no excuse because I had over 30 years to take the time to read them, but I have not and I did not.

     Be it NOT for your rousing speech- Pastor Williams Bishop -  last Monday at the MET at Broad AND Poplar  - I still would not have listened to my classmates at the Free School ( which, by the Way, meets at 9:30 A.M. every Saturday at 18^th and Diamond Street in the Church of the Advocate in Philadelphia ), were it not for your speech I would not have begun to take the time to gather these important books from the 50 or so books that have been written about Doctor King and read them. These books were written by Doctor King personally and are always more in-depth in insight, authentic analysis and reflective of His thinking and theories more so than all the pounds of other material written about Doctor King. I thank you Sistah- Reverend Louise Williams for your speech and I want to mention that when you gave this speech you were very angry at us children for not doing our homework. Ora Brinkley – the gone, but never forgotten social writer at The Philadelphia Tribune; Managing Editor Claude Harris and His personal secretary Goldie, had the same kind of energy, vitality, vital ness, and vividness of image and character that you still to this day represent and have. It was a good friend of mine, Mr. Eddie M. Frank ( who never misses a day of church), it was He who made sure several years ago that I took the time to discover you after you had already spoken at hundreds of events, gotten elected to office and were on the radio for years, He took the time to make sure I got to one of your events and I thank Him for this. He is not politically oriented, but I thank GOD for our BLACK people who just take the time to sit up and take positive notice of the things we are doing.  GOD walks with you and clears a path for you each and every day. I thank you for this and your generosity a hundred thousand times over.
