"Music saved my life, and I'm using it to save others".
This statement, voiced by one of the panelists, rang true for each of them in the program hosted last night by Janice Eatman Williams, CWRU Office of Government and Community Relations, at the Wade Park Community Engagement Center, 11310 Wade Park Ave. A range of emotions filled the room when (pictured left to right in the group photo) Bill Bradford, long-time branch manager of Glenville's Langston Hughes Library; DJ Phatty Banks, DJ, music/film producer, and community leader; Dr. Fred Wheatt, Executive Director of the Leo's Casino Arts and Music Collaboratory; and Bob Ivory, keyboardist, songwriter, and community leader told their life stories to the captivated audience.
Why not close out Black Music Month with more free music and conversation Tuesday, June 30th at 6pm at the same location.
