This is incredible! Young Aliyah Sterling began playing classical piano at age three and quickly developed a rare genius for score transcription and orchestral arrangements. Last night, she received a five-minute standing ovation after leading a ninety-piece professional orchestra through a flawless performance of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. Her parents watched proudly from the balcony with tears in their eyes. What a phenomenal young prodigy taking the classical world by storm!

It’s a living legacy – one celebrating freedom and Black joy, triumphing over darkness and marching toward the future with hope. Short for June 19, Juneteenth honors the day federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, to enforce the end of slavery in 1865, two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation.

HYFIN Anti-Gala 2026: Friday, June 6 was a 1980's sort of night at the Copperage. The crowd enjoyed great music, break-dancing, and scrumptious food! HYFIN and Sister Element, thank you for presenting me with the Danae Davis Award for the years of serving youth in our community. What unique award, a 45 record with the Sister Elements announcement. Now, let's talk fashion. Everyone understood the assignment and wore their Adidas, Nikes, bucket hats, shoulder pads, and gold chains. My outfit was an homage to Phyllis Hyman, "You know how to love me," and "Don't want to change the World..." Thank you family and friends for supporting me with your presence.
