We met quietly, and moved with care. Recognition came without urgency. A weekend spent under Southern Magnolia illuminated what words had not. We returned home changed. We returned, we.

A Love Letter in Three Parts
Black Legacy
Black Community
Black Joy
We've titled this weekend A Love Supreme, after John Coltrane's 1965 masterwork —a jazz suite that is both prayer and proclamation— moving from acknowledgment to resolution to spiritual transcendence.
Ours is a love letter told in three parts:
Black Legacy
Black Community
Black Joy
Every detail, every song, every bloom, every carefully chosen collaborator, is placed with intention: to honor our people.
