Back2Us Radio: The Brown Sugar Vibe’s Juke Joint For Breast Cancer Awareness Month

By: The Brown Sugar Vibe
 
ATLANTA - Oct. 22, 2014 - PRLog -- “Sistah…you’ve been on my mind” begins the lyrics to a song called Ms. Celie’s blues sung by Shug Avery in the movie The Color Purple.  This month, The Brown Sugar Vibe is honoring those women who have survived breast cancer and celebrating with them by hosting a real live Color Purple styled Juke Joint, titled “The Color Pink” in honor of breast cancer awareness month.

The Brown Sugar Vibe started in the living room of host Lakara Foster as a gathering to celebrate the  release of her first book, “The Day the Truth Was Told: Poetic Confessions of a Liar”.  Foster had only one mission-- to bring together those who loved spoken word and live music no matter the race, religion, or sexual orientation. Seven years later, the Brown Sugar Vibe is not only the premier Spoken Word & Live Music Event in Atlanta but also one of the longest running poetry venues in the southeast. In addition to launching The Brown Sugar Vibe which provides an outlet for all artists by showcasing their talents to in a sold out venue each month, Foster also launched She Speaks! Inc., to empower women through education, arts, and entertainment.

“Breast Cancer Awareness is a cause that is very near and dear to my heart as I lost both of my Grandmothers to this dreadful disease. I think because of the impact that it has on families and women, it is imperative that we are reminded to check ourselves regularly for any indication that something may be wrong. This show is a celebration of those women who we have lost and for those who have survived.”

The October 25, 2014 show will honor five amazing women Linda Moore, Tonya Moore, Gretchen Carter, Dion Walker-Smith, and Ebony Dahll who have all survived Breast Cancer and will share a small part of their powerful testimonies in addition to our dynamic spoken word and live music performances at the Blue Mark Studios 892 Jefferson St. Atlanta, Ga 30318. The show starts at 8pm.
