      Yes! A Director's Cut - make it Longer! Ohhhh, play on TV annually, like Love Actually, Wizard of OZ! Definitely this should be held again! Prep now for 2024? Then how about yearly or every other year, or every 5 years! Man, Harlem - regular major festival!! The celebration of everything just 1900 to now is mindblowing, how about going back to New Amsterdam to now? Close by hilights - lost village from creating Central Park to Free Black Villages back 1700's to Civil War and beyond - Long Island and other critical Black history culture, inventors, entrepreneurs, scientists, innovators, teachers, leaders, artistic geniuses and impacts and breakthroughs for ALL! Go Harlem!

The missed Opportunity is unable to be quantified - Peace!!! Freedom!!! Discussion!!! Self Actualization!!! Celebration of Entertainment! Celebration!!! Black Pride!!! Oh The Possibilities!!! This is TIMELESS!!!! Unspeakable that ALL of AMERICA was not able to see this until now. WATCH IT!!!

    Despite only being a first-time director, The Roots’ drummer Questlove has already entered rarified air as one of the nominees for the 2022 Academy Awards. he’s nominated for Best Original Documentary for his debut film, , which captured the subversive energy and vibrant performances of the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival. The documentary is also nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Music Film, an impressive achievement for the veteran musician.

      You Tube is flooded with reaction channels. These channels generally react to whatever suggestions gets the most likes. I suggested Sly, crickets, on some channels with over a 100k subscribers many of whom are over 60. The majority of the very few that do comment mention the Woodstock performance only. It took me over a year of incessant requests to get at " Thank You(fallwtmw be nice elf) reaction! I then began requesting Curtis Mayfield- Superfly. 0 response. If you mention Motown or Earth Wind & Fire you get some reaction.
      In other words whatever crossed over to a white audience. Though even among African Americans unless they are over 55, very very few are familiar with Sly,

    Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.
    Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long; they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others.
    “But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted".
    YOU SHALL NOT MAKE FOR YOURSELF AN IMAGE in the form of anything, in Heaven above or in the Earth beneath, or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents up to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.
    If my people who are called by my name, humble themselves and pray, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, I will hear from Heaven, will forgive their sins, and will heal their land.
    AND WHEN YOU PRAY, DO NOT BE LIKE THE HYPOCRITES, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. BUT WHEN YOU PRAY GO INTO YOUR ROOM, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
    This, then, is how you should pray:
    Our Father in heaven,
    hallowed be your name,
    your kingdom come,
    your will be done,
    on earth as it is in heaven.
    Give us today our daily bread.
    And forgive us our debts,
    as we also have forgiven our debtors.
    And lead us not into temptation,
    but deliver us from the evil one.
    For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
    "Matthew 5-7 NIV Bible Gateway", we can use google search.
    These are the teachings,
    The Righteousness of our Lord Jesus Christ our God.
    REPENT, and start doing what is right.
    If you abide my teachings, you are really my disciples; then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
    Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in Truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
    GOD IS SPIRIT so his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in Truth.
    In the New Heaven and New Earth,
    only Righteousness dwells.
    May the Spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ our God be with you all.
