[Note: Dialect is sometimes preserved in the art.] Self Portrait by Tony McGee 5 6 Bitter Noodle Soup By Lucina Jasper In Audre Lorde's essay, "The Fourth of July,” she discusses two very different tones. The first one being in awe and excitement for visiting Washington, D.C. for first time and, secondly, her shattering Untitled experience with American racism against African Americans in the 1940's. Being of mixed ethnic background, I experienced a similar kind by Tony McGee of racism in the 21st century as Lorde did in the summer of 1947 with her family. As a child, I never paid attention to being of a different ethnic background, even though I was always referred to as "la chinita," the Chinese girl--because of the shape of my eyes, even though I am Japanese and Mexican. I was born to my Mexican mother, who is a small, dark-skinned woman with curly hair and a very warm and infectious laugh. My father was a tall Japanese man who was very simple and kind. They fell in love, and their union was looked down upon, especially from his family's side. My mother was never accepted as his wife. Not too long after marrying, my father was killed in an accident. After the tragedy, my mother, a young, heartbroken widow, found out that she was carrying a baby in her womb. She was happy but sad at the same time because my father never knew that I was to be. She told my father's family about her pregnancy, and they still Rikki refused to accept her and acknowledge me, even after my birth. That was my first experience of being treated differently because of my By Stephanie Bentley mixed ethnic background. My daughter, my child, my only one In "The Fourth of July," Lorde describes how she encounters We had good times, bad, boring and fun racism for the very first time for being African American. She discusses her family's first trip to Washington D.C. and before she can fully grasp I remember taking you in the morning to school the open segregation they experienced, she writes about her parents’ And you giving me a kiss even if it didn’t look cool. protective nature. She states, "my mother and father believed that they could best protect their children from the realities of race in america I remember us riding in the neighborhood on bikes and the fact of american racism and never giving them name, much And us doing things together that we liked. less discussing their nature” (sic). As she discusses her parents’ behavior, it reminds me of the way my mother was towards me when I was a child. She was just extra careful and trying to cushion any hard It seems like it was just yesterday, times goes so fast blows of differentiation. Even though as a child I was too innocent to Now you’re grown a young lady at last. notice, not knowing my fathers’ side of the family has always been a difficult thing. As Lorde described her family’s experience in the ice cream shop and being denied service only because of the color of their skin, it struck a nerve with me. It brought back memories of my experience with my own ethnically diverse family at a local Japanese noodle house 7 8 on a warm August afternoon. That day, we were all walking around When our food was finally brought out, our appetites had town, just like Lorde had described her family in Washington D.C., “we disappeared. I tried the soup, and it had a bitter taste of racism. I didn't were a proper caravan, mother bright and father brown, the three of us like it at all.

    Poetry Library All your ‘Poems of the Week’ in one collection w/c 14.05.20 Atlas by U.A Fanthorpe There is a kind of love called maintenance Which stores the WD40 and knows when to use it; Which checks the insurance, and doesn’t forget The milkman; which remembers to plant bulbs; Which answers letters; which knows the way The money goes; which deals with dentists And Road Fund Tax and meeting trains, And postcards to the lonely; which upholds The permanently ricketty elaborate Structures of living, which is Atlas. And maintenance is the sensible side of love, Which knows what time and weather are doing To my brickwork; insulates my faulty wiring; Laughs at my dryrotten jokes; remembers My need for gloss and grouting; which keeps My suspect edifice upright in air, As Atlas did the sky. w/c 21.05.20 This week we've chosen a couple of poems written by Dorset HealthCare colleagues. The first is by Suzie Thomas after undergoing an operation and she'd like to dedicate it to all the frontline staff who are putting themselves in harms way for the rest of us. The second is by Adele Sales, imagining the world on the other side of the pandemic. Walking Angels (NHS) by Suzie Thomas, E-procurement Co-ordinator If only there were people who toiled and cared for everyone out there? If only there were people who at our darkest moments of turmoil and fear were there to care? People who would tuck you in bed with love and compassion Even though they’d been dashing to another, even though they themselves are crashing.

An individual natal chart reveals certain predisposition for “dis-ease” that has the propensity to develop over a lifetime. Environmental factors, improper diet, or simply a lack of knowledge regarding possible deficiencies can all contribute to the onset of health problems. A natal chart actually yields a nutritional plan specific to the native by indicating the need for minerals and vitamins that can be beneficially instrumental in maintaining a healthy body. The association between bodily illness and the signs and planets of the Zodiac belong to the Hermetic Theory which is an ancient Egyptian/Greek philosophical science. Hermetic Theory is based on the premise that the entire Cosmos is reflected in each human being. In this system, the signs and degrees of the Zodiac correlate to human anatomy and the planets to the physical and chemical processes and to specific organ malfunction and vitamin and mineral deficiencies. The Uranian planets, Hades, Admetos, Appollon, and applicable Fixed Stars are also used in analysis.
