Dear @Delta, I just assisted in a medical emergency in the air. Your medical kits need a glucometer, epi pen, and automatic blood pressure cuffs- it’s impossible to hear with a disposable stethoscope in the air. Please improve this for passenger safety!

Wonder what artist Shirley Woodson, the latest Detroit #EminentArtist, listens to while she paints? She answered that question for us and built a @Spotify playlist including @JohnColtrane, @EttaJames, Pharaoh Sanders and others. open.spotify.com/playlist/5G…

“A Palette for the People” traces Woodson’s life from her parents’ arrival in Detroit with 3-month-old Shirley — seeking greater opportunity than the South they left behind — to Woodson’s youth in Detroit where her talent was recognized and nurtured both at home and at schools.

“From its size to its title, to the careful selection of contents and colors, we knew this book had to be an enveloping, multidimensional, conversation, in the same ways that Shirley’s lived her life,” said writer-editor @nicholewrites.

“What we're learning is that #artists aren’t just dreamers but the ones who bring imagination, which is the essential element in movements for change. It's imagination, even in times of trauma, that allows people to live in the dreaming space” #Minneapolis usnews.com/news/health-news/…
