Sights and Sounds is your weekly guide to the Bay Area arts scene through the eyes and ears of local artists. During shelter-in-place, instead of suggesting in-person events, we're offering ideas of ways to experience art and culture from home. This week, host Jenee Darden speaks with vocalist, composer, performing artist and educator Naima Shalhoub to talk about three great virtual events to enjoy this week. SOL Affirmations: A Tool Kit for Reflection and Manifesting the Light Within This book of uplifting affirmations was penned by Karega Bailey of the Oakland band SOL Development and his wife Felicia. They've also made an album version, and it features powerful reflections on grief and love. We Comin by Reverend Sekou and the Holy Ghost This fantastic band has roots in St Louis and Oakland- having met at the protest in Ferguson, they've created sound that blends blues, funk and gospel and speaks powerfully to the protests going on today as well. DJ Nina Soul This Oakland based DJ |
