Los Angeles! Some very smart, very cool people are larging up our sisters in ska at the Grammy museum. Come hang out! Moderated by Junor Francis, emcee extraordinaire!#skaherway #womenofska #nycska #dmvska #laska #historyoflaska #grammymuseum
We don't talk about ska and the Grammies in the same sentence very often, but @duniabest.bsky.social will be on a panel at the Grammy Museum next weekend.

Me too.
Yesterday, I said out loud, "A Black man was lynched today."

I'm still processing that.

Please elevate Trey Reed's name.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.
