Introduction: Sexual Magic and Social Responsibility Dion Fortune is a fascinating and neglected figure of 20th century occultism. In her lifetime, she published a prodigious number of books and articles on both occult and non-occult matters, and authored a number of novels. A full exploration of her work would take up many more pages that I have at my disposal, so I have limited myself to what I believe to be the most unique aspect of her work and the one which has the most significance for the modern study of Esotericism: her approach to sexual magic.

  • The Attucks Theater September 4, 2020 | Source: Theater/ Words by Penny Neef
    Spotlight: The Attucks Theater September 4, 2020 | Source: http://spotlightnews.press/index.php/2020/09/04/spotlight-the-attucks- theater/ Words by Penny Neef. Images as credited. Feature image by Mike Penello. In the early 20th century, segregation was a fact of life for African Americans in the South. It became a matter of law in 1926. In 1919, a group of African Americans from Norfolk and Portsmouth met to develop a cultural/business center in Norfolk where the black community “could be treated with dignity and respect.” The “Twin Cities Amusement Corporation” envisioned something like a modern-day town center. The businessmen obtained funding from black owned financial institutions in Hampton Roads. Twin Cities designed and built a movie theater/ retail/ office complex at the corner of Church Street and Virginia Beach Boulevard in Norfolk. Photo courtesy of the family of Harvey Johnson The businessmen chose 25-year-old architect Harvey Johnson to design a 600-seat “state of the art” theater with balconies and an orchestra pit. The Attucks Theatre is the only surviving theater in the United States that was designed, financed and built by African Americans. The Attucks was named after Crispus Attucks, a stevedore of African and Native American descent. He was the first patriot killed in the Revolutionary War at the Boston Massacre of 1770. The theatre featured a stage curtain with a dramatic depiction of the death of Crispus Attucks. Photo by Scott Wertz. The Attucks was an immediate success. It was known as the “Apollo Theatre of the South.” Legendary performers Cab Calloway, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, Nat King Cole, and B.B.

  • Entering Third Grade
    Summer Reading Program-2018 Entering Third Grade Any book that helps a child to form a habit of reading, to make reading one of his deep and continuing needs, is good for him." —Maya Angelou ​ ​ Dear Families, Did you know that children who do not read over the summer experience the “summer slide” and can lose up to two months of learning by the time they return to school in the fall! But there’s good news. Research shows that reading or listening to as few as six books over the summer break can help children maintain their reading skills and score higher in reading and math when they return ​ ​ to school! We strongly recommend that your child read at least six books during the summer break. And we encourage you to read to your child. Kids this age benefit tremendously from hearing stories read aloud. We also want you to visit the local library with your child this summer and check out the free summer fun activities happening and sign up for a free library card! ​ ​ ​ ​ The following booklist is the work of our teachers and literacy coaches. We hope you and your child will love these titles, but feel free to add any books for your reader. The staff in the children’s area of the public library will have many wonderful suggestions. Attached to the booklist is a reading log. Have your child fill out the reading log and give it to his or her new teacher in the fall. We’re so excited to see what your child read and we’ll be using the list as part of our Books, Buddies & Blankets Reading Celebration this fall.

  • With Jane and Without: an Interview with Donald Hall, Non-Fiction By
    With Jane and Without: An Interview with Donald Hall By Jeffrey S. Cramer ANYONE KENYON ACQUAINTED cannot help but stand WITH in awe THE of the STORY irony which, OF if DONALD it HALL AND JANE appeared in fiction, would appall by its tear-jerking manipulation. The reality, as I stand before Jane Kenyon's grave, leaves me sad dened and numb. The lines on their shared stone are from Kenyon's poem, "After noon at MacDowell. " Although she wrote it with Hall in mind when he, as he has said, was ''supposed to die," they now stand in testimony to Kenyon, and look, mistakenly, like words he must have written for her: I BELIEVE IN THE MIRACLES OF ART BUT WHAT PRODIGY WILL KEEP YOU SAFE BESIDE ME Four miles North of the Proctor cemetery on Route 4, just past Eagle Pond Road, in the shadow of Ragged Mountain, is Eagle Pond Farm. There is no sign, no name on the mailbox, but the satellite dish over whelming the North side yard announces the home of a man who cannot live unconnected to his beloved baseball games. The living room seems truly a living room, a room lived in, infor mal. It is surrounded, as would be expected, by books; an open book of pictures of sculpture by Henry Moore lays on the coffee table in front of the couch on which I sit. By the window Hall's chair faces the T.V. and VCR which must have received, recorded and replayed thousands of ballgames. The Glenwood stands nearby.
