We’re barrelling headfirst into the year end celebrations, including newer ones built to create bigger, more cohesive communities.
Kwanzaa starts next week and is nearing the 60th anniversary of its incarnation, which means it’s a perfect time to bring in professor Ousmane Power-Greene of Clark University to discuss it’s origin story, and how a non-denominational holiday for and of the people still seeks to bring folx of all walks together in search of a brighter future and togetherness.
First Night Northampton is only a couple of weeks away as well. And we’ll be bringing you a selection of the bands that you can see all over paradise city on the last night of the year, which today means the ever intriguing, ever shifting avant-garde sounds of The Leafies You Gave Me.
And Mr. Universe, Kainaat Studios and Hampshire College’s Salman Hameed is reviewing the milestones from this year in Astronomy, including where you can discuss your own favorites with other space minded folx tomorrow night, and drones over New Jersey, which is it's own whole thing.
