Take Me Home, Country Roads except on your back porch on a summer evening

Take Me Home, Country Roads by John Denver except it’s playing from your neighbor’s radio that you can hear from your back porch, which you sit out on to relax in spite of the loud buzzing from the lightbulb and the hoards of moths that flock to it on summer evenings like this.

One night in 1952, Marilyn called photographer Andre de Dienes saying she was unable to sleep. He picked her up and took photographs of her in a back alley using only his headlights for lighting. Apparently Marilyn told de Dienes to title the shots taken that night as “The End of Everything.”

This is how slaves brought over the peanut plant!

Last year, I took a class called History of the African-American Spirit. One of the things I learned about is black people’s hairstyles (especially cornrows) during slavery. They were more than just hairstyles and creative ways to store food. They were also used to create maps. Black slaves would use these maps to escape plantations and their captors.

I’d read about certain crops being potentially brought over from Africa to the Americans via seeds in captured slaves’ hair, but I hadn’t known how simple and subtle the hairstyle could be.
