Hello local, national and global readers. Just a quick post hello to thank everyone! I've been blogging for over 10 years now and appreciate all the new media platforms that offer a space/place for our voices.
Blogger/Poet Delores Fisher (Summer 2022)
I still perform in the community, serve as a public speaker at events, and present at conferences as well as blog about various entertainers and events. Here's a blast from the past 2018 Hope For Hait fundraiser review: https://sonictapestry.wordpress.com/2018/02/24/black-student-science-organization-at-sdsu-hope-for-haiti-benefit-2018/
The BSSO Hope For Haiti event, was organized by new Black Student Science Organization president, Miyu Oda-DesHotels . The Hope For Haiti yearly event is a fund drive that directly helps to improve the quality of life for those struggling to recover from weather/climate and geological catastrophes that have impacted the people of Haiti for the last several years http://www.bsso.org/BSSO/About_Us.html
This year's fund raiser returned live to Montezuma Hall. (More about the 2022 program in a later "catch up" blog post.
Below is one of the 2012 photos from the humanitarian outreach program sponsored by the BSSO (Black Student Science Organization) at San Diego State University.
Blogging is quite like other forms of essay or script writing for streaming. Like most writers, we old school bloggers have our productive weeks and our weeks of writer's inactivity. We struggle with what to include in our content. Pop culture in America is still very much "the changing same" as Amiri Baraka and others have historically stated.
Twitchcon San Diego was here last week and I had the opportunity to converse briefly with Vloggers/streamers about Internet posting and some of its rewards as well as challenges.
My point of view on life seems to have been altered by the continuance of multi-level dynamics generated by COVID and other diseases. Socio-political chaos is global--few if any nations are immune. Devastating global climate events sprawl over Earth's terrain like broken scab oozing with pus and pain. Humanity continues to teeter among islands of despair, denial, recovery, and resilience. . . Time will tell what legacies will be recorded and preserved for future generations.
