Thank God this particular tyranny did not last in its projected entire. Unfortunately racial tensions still exist and has mutated its fire.
Like the refugees in the 1940’s…division is still a thing. The Transatlantic series debuts the eerie and has a certain caveat ring.
There’s nothing boring or mundane about the series layout. Episode six provides a fix if you wonder what “data tracking” is about.
The good ol’ Census may not be the thing that we once thought would record us as counted citizens; a right that can’t be bought…
Well, the Census was not created for anything of the sort, but more of a way of knowledge to separate the south from the north.
And I don’t mean that in the terms of geography; a place. The creation of data tracking was to keep track of “statuses and race.”
Damn. The Census is used as a tracking stamp
and is pretty much the historical reason why many of our ancestors were not excited by “Census season.”
I am reminded of the Census views as noted in Harlem by Langston Hughes:

I used to perform this piece within a southern state. I understood the words, but not the specific movements of the day.
The Transatlantic series has helped me to add more dimension to what Langston Hughes was channeling during his publishing ascension.
Learning the route of our ancestors; our great, great grandpa’s and great, great grand momma’s makes for the most interesting and compelling Historically engaging Drama.
Are you watching? You’d be better to serve yourself a look’sy. I’m Qui And I’m eating up History. It is the best zero calorie cookie.
Chew well every bite of noted history to avoid walking into a re-make of humanity’s racial mystery.
At first glance, the script appears to be going in one direction with a trajectory to continue the same path. However, the limited series based on true actual events is anything but a monotone-composed script. Careful to focus not on the obvious alone because the strength of the story appears to rest with the antagonist.
Pernille is the new hire RN on the night shift and is trained by the shift lead RN, Christina. From day one, there are break room rumors about Christina sleeping with the Chief Physician, among other lascivious deeds. Rumors are lost on management and Christina is in line for a promotion. Pernille remains neutral to the rumors and focused on the night shift vibe… to the point of dear life.
The series is laid out over four episodes, and not one moment of enlightenment is spared in this even-keeled real life dramatic spill.
It isn’t easy to script any show, especially one based on facts. When a story is true, do not add fiction during your documented convey. So, if THE NURSE was crafted solely on facts this piece wins in at least three genres: Suspense, Drama, and Documentary.
Time is precious, so anytime that I am able to combine learning (conveying knowledge) with entertainment — I’m all in. In fact, there’s a term for doing such: GAMIFICATION.
Gamification is a necessary elixir for a writer, but not limited to the profession. How’s the health of your career? Be the nourishing Nurse in your situation and the winning protagonist in your story. Especially when others least expect it.

When storytelling is real and you need to re-tell it, it can be tricky to compose, re-direct, and up-sell it.
But it has been done and this tale includes an old disco joint during on-the-job training to make a defibrillation point.
It happens early in the 4-episodic series. It’s enough to throw you off of who is killing the night shift vibe… No time to turn and cough.
It is a foreign production; we can thank the Danish for the view. Translate the language to English and watch a great tale came through.
May this week inspire, you to turn the mundane into new fire.
After all, you are a living documentary right now in real-time. Me? I’m deep in composition in and out of rhyme.
Life is only whatever we decide to value and make of it. Some folks achieve so much good that you pray, ‘they never quit.
Einstein said, “Creativity is Intelligence Having Fun,” then I said, “And some folkswillmake a living out of it, hun.”
Fab 5 Freddy is one of those folk. He’s been listed in societal pages since he was a teen. So the other day while on my “learn & play” I found more vibrant light into his scene:
NPR – In 1978, Michael Holman moved to New York City for a job on Wall Street, where he “read a short blurb in The Village Voice. Fred Brathwaite, who served as an informal spokesperson for the Fabulous 5 graffiti crew, put out a call for readers to hire them to create custom burners at their businesses or homes, priced by the square foot…”
Genius! How about my quote on “making a living out of it?” Don’t forget it too soon. Einstein’s wisdom is tried and true; Fab was trying it out by noon.
I chuckled at the NPR write up. I’ve known Fab for more than a decade and I am stilllearninghis movesas if they are new. My friend is a legend of youth-appealing truths!
If by chance, you have been living on the other side of the cool side and you are not familiar with my friend, Fab 5, his art, or his writes — I invite you to drop in on his multi dimensional site:
“He has been, at one time or another, a graffiti artist, a rapper, an internationally exhibited painter, a video and TV-commercial director, a screenwriter, a film scorer, an actor, a lecturer, and a television personality,” (Orlean, The NEW YORKER 1991)
Susan Orlean published a fabulous piece in The NEW YORKER Profiles Section titled: LIVING LARGE |The World of Fab Five Freddy. At the time Fab was hosting MTV’s YO! MTV RAPS and I was glued to the tube like it was the source for water & food. I was into the dude who seemed to open and close every Hip Hop video that made an impression on the souls of millions of viewers during Hip Hop’s formative years. In fact, Fab wasn’t just a rap host at its infancy, he was a Music Video Director, too:
Remember when RAP used to serve WISDOM on WAX? | Directed by Fab 5 Freddy
When KRS dropped MY PHILOSOPHY, I was a sophomore in high school giving deep thought to verse and chorus… giving deep thought to the music video’s visual highlights and metaphorical breakdowns. For instance, at the video mark 2:28 Fab can be seen crossing the camera at: “Like all my brothers eatchicken and watermelon. Talk with broken English and drug sellin.'” Awesome juxtaposition to point out BS stereotypes. The view of ‘a diplomat of networking cultures (Fab 5 Freddy) is a contrast to the words. Perfect and profound.
Fab 5 Freddy has vision and it has been with him, dare I say, since birth. Born the eldest child to the union of his parents and the God-son to Max Roach, this guy was born ‘to a beat. 22-years after his birth, WILD STYLE was born as an introduction to Music & Dance evolution. Obviously Fab set his sights for success pretty high when he was a lad. Speaking of high: CANNABIS & ART. What are your thoughts on it? Fab has set his sights on the topic, and, well, it looks like a lot of green:
In a recent piece published in the NY DAILY NEWS, Fab recallswatching his father host friends in the early ‘70’s, “Jazz recordings and the smell of cannabis filled the air. Later that decade, I became a graffiti artist, smoked “cheeba” as it was then known and played a role in the inception of hip-hop culture. I’m blessed to have grown up in New York City and to witness firsthand how cannabis is endemic to American music and freedom of expression.”
Fab 5 Freddy is both Director and Producer of Netflix’s GRASS IS GREENER Documentary. The reel extends to much more than exhaling into a good feeling for 90-minutes. It covers two important objectives:
To explainthe foundations and capacity of Marijuana
To use the film’srevenue to help recover lives lost to the criminalization of Marijuana
To strengthen his objective on this front, Fab 5 Freddy went into mode “From The Block to The Boardroom,” with Curaleaf, a multi-state Medical Marijuana Dispensary network to produce the B NOBLE Pre-Roll brand.
Inform, elevate, and lift are the first 3 points out of 5 in Fred Brathwaite’s aka.In order to learn more about the other 2 points, you’ll have to catch him in person. Fab 5 Freddy’s life philosophy is an amazing 2 cents that only he can best convey.
What a life! So worthy of “5 On The Fabulous Side” + 2 more. Let me explain the additional 2 cents. Today’s compositional install was created from 5 reference links pointing directly to Fab 5 Freddy, his current pursuits and progressive conquers. In the process of stitching together writes to share a dimensional view of High 5’s for Fab 5, I was excited to realize that my article research turned up 2 additional reference URL’s beyond NPR, Curaleaf, Wikipedia, The New York Daily, and The New Yorker that dole out 411 on the Legend, and they are: Fab5Freddy.comand Qui-ME.com. Fab is an awesome force on his own, in fact, he is responsible for the talent exposure and career of many whom you watch and have jammed to for decades. No man is an island. It takes ateam to deliver box office hits like NEW JACK CITY and AMERICAN GANGSTER; Fab5Freddy played the team role of Executor Producer and Consultant to their successes.
Today’s article of acknowledgement affirms that I am on the team. My role is to remain focused on those who are uplifting othersand to celebrate them with confetti, champagne toasts, and digital publishings to boast. While Fab’s accomplishments are far and wide, my team support is not limited to International Go-Getters. I am very much into ‘Who is doing What in the USA. So what are you up to? I’d love to compose a 5 On The Fabulous Side for your legacy efforts, as well. Put me on the team and let’s surpass the highest of seams. Everybody loves a contact…
Pass the good 411 to me and I will pass it back… strong. I’m Qui High Five’ing my community because your contributions go long.
There’s no expiration on goodart and informativesongs:
