Hello All,

I just found out that Lena Horne died yesterday morning!

She was a black woman who personified class, elegance, style, dignity and character. She was an icon for a generation of black Americans. She never compromised and she always stood tall and defiant to bigotry and racism. Dorothy Height and Lena Horn were models for professionalism, determination and womanhood –especially for black women. Too bad coonery is more preferable and accepted for many young black women today…..
