Happy Thanksgiving! Flashback to Thanksgiving Day 2016, when Aretha Franklin performed the National Anthem at the Lions-Vikings game in Detroit. Her gospel-rooted performance lasted so long that CBS had some fun during the second half.

Literally posted on a holiday celebrating when American immigrants were taken care of by the local people out of fellowship and the goodness of their hearts.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

96 years ago today, Motown founder Berry Gordy was born. Where Black music was largely classified as "race records," Gordy was the entity that solidified Black music into the popular music space.

The Motown sound" became the blueprint for pop music everywhere.

And the legend walks amongst us 🙏🏾

Happy 96th Birthday to the legendary Berry Gordy. He founded Motown, launched stars like Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye, and shaped the sound of a generation. He wrote iconic hits like "I Want You Back" and "Shop Around." A true music mogul.
