So much has been said about the man and the music that touched an entire generation, since his unfortunate passing. I imagine the memories, testimonies, stories, renditions, gratitude, love and heartfelt condolences will continue to pour in as we collectively grieve this loss. An incredibly unique talent. A gift like no other. Genius personified. Still trying to wrap my head around this. Praying for peace, love, comfort and healing for his family and friends. Thank you for putting your entire being, heart and soul, into every single song you created. We receive All Of This. Rest in perfect peace, Michael D'Angelo Archer. You are now among the ancestors. 🙏🏿🕊💔

March may be coming to an end, but we find reason to celebrate you above and beyond a single day (or 31 for that matter)! 😜 Wishing you the most beautiful year ahead. Me & You. March in re/ar/view. ❤️🙌🏿🍾
March has always held a special place in my heart. Why? Because two of the most important men in my life entered the world at opposite ends of this month. My beloved father, born on today, March 31st & My dearest Anthony, born earlier this month, on March 1st. I am so so so incredibly grateful for having both of you in my life - the abundance of love & care will always be cherished. Celebrating you, always - past, present and throughout eternity. Happy birthday!! 🙏🏿💙💐
With just a few hours left to catch this exhibit, I recommend this as the perfect way to spend a snowy Sunday afternoon indoors. An EPIC celebration and exploration of Alvin Ailey's brilliant works as dancer, choreographer, visionary, activist and collaborator. From legends like Katherine Dunham, Geoffrey Holder, Carmen de Lavallade, Pearl Primus, Lester Horton to the late great Judith Jamison, and more, Ailey's framework and style can fully be appreciated. A true visionary! The archival footage alone is worthy of the deep dive (I got lost in this for hours)! But enough can't be said about the bold imagery and looping soundtrack on full display surrounding the entire exhibit - incredible and deeply moving (especially if you have limited time). ♥️🙌🏿♥️

A national treasure whose life and legacy will forever be cherished. A beautiful gem whose grace and beauty inspired so many. A dancer, choreographer, artistic director, and muse to the late great Alvin Ailey himself. May your light continue to shine bright, dear angel. #JudithJamison #AlvinAileyAmericanDanceTheater #AileyAmbassador
