Life is a funny thing. One never knows what a day will offer. Today - Dec 2! (how is this possible?) our Experimental Photo class had a surprise visit from David Hilliard, one-time leader and co-founder of the Black Panther Party. I bought him an acqua fizzante! He knows our Professor from 'back in the day' in California. She used to photograph members.
It was a very informative slide presentation and discussion. Most people don't know much beyond the images of the berets and guns. They were much more - providing food, clothing and education for their communities.
Then later we had a demonstration by Dan Welden who invented the Solar Plate printmaking technique. Sounds like just the thing for a sailboat in the Caribbean!
After all that I was too tired to go to Beatles night at BeBop. Maybe next week!
