If you are reeling in the avalanche of #BLM reading, listening, art, articles, videos, and instagram posts like I am then pick up this album quick! Listening to this album for the first time through, I enjoyed the late '70s early '80s R&B/disco sound. Listen and think about how Diana Ross is an icon. Listen and remember that for her to make this album it was most likely harder than her white counterparts. But also, listen to all the lyrics and see how they are about love, sex, enjoying your life, and friendship. This album is fun and upbeat! Diana reminds us to "Have Fun (Again)" and we should do just that, turn it on and enjoy your summer! (Then after that donate your time or money to marginalized communities.)
