Breast Cancer Walk

Posted in Miscellaneous, Events, Do Something...Get Active! at 7:07 pm by Shhh....

Hi all. This is something I participate in every year with my kid and friends (my 3rd year of participation!). I would love to get more sister involved. It is a 5K walk/run to raise money for breast cancer…one of the most well-known fundraising walk/runs around. Check out the link and see if you are interested in participating. We can all register individually now and form a team later. If you register by Friday, you save $5.

Please feel free to pass along to your contacts. It’s a wonderful site to see pink Hijabs making this journey to help our fellow sisters in this wonderful event.

‘A Killing in Choctaw’

Posted in Miscellaneous, Events at 8:23 pm by Shhh....

CARL RAY PERFORMS AWARD-WINNING AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL PLAY AT GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY JANUARY 15TH — “A KILLING CHOCTAW”

Washington, DC (BlackNews.com) - On Thursday, January 15, 2009, George Washington University will kick-off a week-long celebration beginning with Dr. Martin Luther King’s birthday and proceeding through the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama. To commence the historical occasion, the university has invited activist/actor/speaker Carl Ray to speak and perform his acclaimed autobiographical one-man play “A Killing in Choctaw” — a true story about Ray witnessing his father’s 1962 racially-motivated murder in Choctaw County, Alabama. Ray will relive the gripping story at 11:30 a.m. Thursday, January 15th at George Washington School of Media and Public Affairs, 805 - 21st Street NW, Washington, DC. Ray will host a Q&A session following his performance. Admission is free and open to the public.

In 1962, 18-year-old Carl Ray witnessed his father’s gruesome murder at the hands of a white man who was angered because he believed Ray had disrespected him in conversation. During the murder trial that followed, Ray was blamed for causing his own father’s death because he had failed to respect the white man. Read the rest of this entry »
