someone in hollywood thought they could take the story of Eunice Kathleen Waymon...... AKA........
Dr. Nina Simone High Priestess of Soul

adding some darkness to her psychology with brown paint and extra teeth, acting like it is possible with one script to turn her story into a capitalist equation, with strokes of violence, guns, a man, and some alcohol. i beg to differ.
i will be inviting those who are interested, to the Living Ro-Om Culture, for some food and libations, to tune into the Nina Simone listening station, and conjure up conversations invoking the ghost of Nina, Miriam Mekeba, James Baldwin, and Maya.
