The Queen of Soul Is Dead
Aretha Franklin
Courtesy of the Detroit Free Press DETROIT Aretha Franklin, whose impassioned, riveting voice made her a titan of American music, has died. She was 76. She died at 9:50 a.m. on Thursday, (Aug. 16) surrounded by family at her home in Detroit. A family statement released by her publicist Gwendolyn Quinn said “Franklin’s official cause of death was due to advance pancreatic cancer of the neuroendocrine type, which was confirmed by Franklin’s oncologist, Dr. Philip Phillips of Karmanos Cancer Institute” in Detroit. Franklin was the loftiest name in the rich history of Detroit music and one of the transcendent cultural figures of the 20th Century. Raised on an eclectic musical diet of gospel, R&B, classical and jazz, she blossomed out of her father’s Detroit church to become the most distinguished black female artist of all time, breaking boundaries while placing nearly 100 hits on Billboard’s R&B chart — 20 of them reaching No. 1. The Queen of Soul, as she was coronated in the 1960s, leaves a sprawling legacy of classic songs that includes “Respect,” “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain of Fools,” “Baby I Love You,” “Angel,” “Think,” “Rock Steady,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and “Freeway of Love,” along with a bestselling gospel catalog. Her death follows several years of painstakingly concealed medical issues, which led to regular show cancellations and extended absences from the public eye. Visibly feeble but still summoning magic from her voice, Franklin played her final Detroit show in June 2017, an emotion-packed concert for thousands at an outdoor festival

downtown. She ended the performance with a then-cryptic appeal to the hometown crowd: “Please keep me in your prayers.” The Queen of Soul sang for presidents and royalty, and befriended high-profile leaders such as the Revs. Martin Luther King Jr. and Jesse Jackson. Amid the global glitter and acclaim, she remained loyal to her home region, living in the Detroit area for decades, including the Bloomfield Hills house where she moved in the late 1980s. Franklin’s voice was a singular force, earning her a multitude of laurels through the decades, including 18 Grammy Awards, the Presidential Medal of Freedom and honorary doctorates from a host of institutions. In 1987, she became the first female artist inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame,and seven years later, at age 52, the youngest recipient of a Kennedy Center Honor. Franklin topped Rolling Stone magazine’s 100 Greatest Singers of All Time list, and her signature hit, “Respect,” ranked No. 4 on “Songs of the Century,” a 1999 project by the National Endowment for the Arts. She performed at the inaugurations of U.S. presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, garnering global attention at the latter for her big felt hat with its crystal-studded bow — a piece of wardrobe now in the Smithsonian Institution. Franklin’s influence is vast and indelible. It’s most obviously heard in the myriad voices that followed her, from Mary J. Blige to Adele, and even male singers like Luther Vandross. But just as important is Franklin’s broader social impact: She embodied American black culture, emphatically and without apology, and through sheer force of talent, thrust it onto the global stage.
by Alex Seitz-Wald The Nation WASHINGTON She’s an outspoken proponent of gun control; he’s a gun-loving NRA member who posed with a small arsenal in his campaign ads. She decries the “heartless” treatment of immigrants; he says he’s “got a big truck just in case I need to round up criminal illegals.” She’s a progressive Democrat who would be the nation’s first black female governor; he’s a white male “politically incorrect conservative” with the backing of President Donald Trump. This year’s race for governor of Georgia features a striking contrasts between the candidates, with each party’s hopefuls offering a clearer distillation of their base’s passions than you’ll find in almost any other race in the nation this year. “I’m calling it the battle of the bases,” said Kerwin Swint, a political scientist and dean at Kennesaw State University, just outside Atlanta. “This may be where our politics are headed: This race is going to be ideological in a way that Georgia is not really used to. And it’s going to be nationalized in a way that is Georgia is not really used to.” Georgia Republicans have nominated Secretary of State Brian Kemp, whom Trump backed, to face off against Stacey Abrams, the former minority leader of the state House, who won an earlier Democratic primary. In both cases, the partisans in each party opted decisively for the more rousing option over rivals who were seen as too moderate or “establishment.” Kemp won all but two of Georgia›s 159 counties in Tuesday’s runoff election, beating Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle,

Stacey Abrams who had been secretly recorded saying the GOP primary had devolved into a contest of “who had the biggest gun, who had the biggest truck, and who could be the craziest.” Abrams, meanwhile, won the May Democratic primary in a landslide, beating former state Rep. Stacey Evans with 76 percent of the vote. “Make no mistake: There’s a crystal-clear contrast as we go forward,” Kemp told supporters Tuesday night. “This election is going to be for the soul of our state.” And he warned about the challenges ahead, predicting that national progressive forces would invest resources in Georgia like they never have before. “Hillary Clinton, George Soros and Nancy Pelosi all have Georgia on their mind,” Kemp said.

Brian Kemp From the beginning, Kemp styled himself after Trump as a brash conservative who likes to get under the skin of liberals. His viral campaign ads featured chainsaws, explosions, pickup trucks and lots of guns. Abrams, meanwhile, has built her entire political career around a novel electoral strategy for Southern Democrats: Focus on expanding the Democratic base rather than trying to win over soft Republicans and moderate independents. Given her race, gender and progressive policy platform, she may be unlike anyone Georgia Democrats have ever had before as a statewide candidate. That makes her exciting to both local and national Democrats, who believe she has a real chance to transform the politics of a rapidly diversifying state that has been trending in Democrats’ direction. “There’s a lot of energy on the progressive side,” said Amy Morton, the chair of the liberal group Better Georgia. “She has an opportunity to pull together a coalition of voters that may be unprecedented in November. And she’s certainly going to have the resources behind her.” Republicans have telegraphed their attack plan, with the Republican
Governors Association calling Abrams “a far-left Democrat” with a “radical agenda” that includes “some of the most extreme liberal positions of any Democratic gubernatorial candidate in Georgia’s history.” Democrats are using the same strategy in reverse on Kemp, saying he’s the real radical in the race. “Let’s be clear: Brian Kemp’s brand of extremism is not welcome in Georgia,” said Laura Simmons, the state director of the abortion rights group NARAL Pro-Choice. Kemp has vowed to outdo Mississippi to sign the toughest anti-abortion law in the country. Abrams has pledged to make support for abortion rights «a central facet of this campaign.» And Kemp has vowed to expand gun rights in the state. Abrams, meanwhile, not only supports gun safety measures like universal background checks, but seems to take pleasure in taunting the NRA. All this might make some Georgians long for the quieter politics of a seemingly bygone era. But Swint, the Kennesaw State professor, said hadn’t he encountered much nostalgia for conservative Democrats and softer-spoken moderate Republicans. “If there are out there, I haven’t heard from them,” he said.

Q&A with gallery operators Robert Atkins (artist) and Jacqueline Edwards (business manager). Your Reflections Art Gallery and Studio has been in existence for a while, but soon it will be introduced to the public at the grand opening on August 25. What does this venture represent for your team and what opportunities or challenges does it present? This venture represents a long awaited prayer being answered. While being an artist has always been my passion I had to work to support my family. However now that I have been afforded the opportunity to retire I now can pursue my passion as I desire. As a team Jackie and I fuel from each other, I paint, she frames and handles most of the business. It works out really well. We have never had an opportunity as large as this. The main challenge is not to get too consumed by all of this, it is a passion not a job. Sometimes passions are hard to turn off. As always we must not forget to balance our other responsibilities, God, family and relationship. What will be on display at the opening on August 25?
REFLECTIONS Art Gallery & Studio
5955 Jefferson Davis Hwy, North Augusta, SC
We will display approximately sixty pictures, a combination of graphite’s (black & white), pastel, watercolor and acrylic. The pictures portray a history, of where we have come from as a race, some of our struggles and successes. We display a music wall, a heritage wall, a sports wall, and a few abstracts that tell different stories depending on the person.
Tell us a little about your new space. The gallery itself is an eighty foot wall that will be changed by about fifty percent every three months. We want to keep everyone interested so we advise all to stroll through BECPLEX to view the gallery regularly and also tour the building for your other rental needs such as parties, retirement functions, family reunions and even weddings. We will also feature other artist often. The office / studio is 10x16 office where business will be conducted and beautiful art will continue to be born. BEC-PLEX is the perfect atmosphere for that girl’s night out for a paint party.
