Are you an Onyxbird? "What's that?", you ask. That's my term for people of african heritage (i.e., african, african-american, afro-caribbean, afro-latino, afro-european) who love to spread their wings and travel to unusual, unexpected and interesting places. The Onyxbird also thrives on cultural exploration and tends to be socially conscious. Unfortunately, Onyxbirds tend to fly solo or as a pair. Very rarely are "flocks" of Onyxbirds spotted in China or Argentina or Finland or New Zealand. The …

You like to sing, and you wish could do it more. You want to sing, and want a supportive environment to give it a try. You’ve always wanted to try karaoke. That wedding, party, business event, or trip to Asia is coming up and you need to get up there and sing one. But you say, “My voice stinks! I can’t sing! I can’t get up in front of a group and do that!” In Nigeria they say, “If you can talk, you can sing.” Karaoke is not about being Sinatra, Streisand, Springsteen, or Stefani. Karaoke is abou …

Our events will provide an opportunity to step with True Chi-Steppers, who are properly cultivated to respect the fundamentals of the dance (True Chicago Style Steppin), such as proper lane discipline, the beat, timing and flow, clear signals, and smoothness devoid of a certain bounce.

Some of the produce we eat travels an average of 1,400 miles from farm to plate. Food has to be picked and transported for days before they reach peak ripeness, compromising their taste and nutrition. Conventional methods of monocultural food production use large amounts of chemical pesticides and fertilizers that can also end up on our plates. Cities offer a number of resources for food production that have been traditionally overlooked. There are better ways to grow food right where we li …

I'm planning on doing a "round the world" trip starting ideally this spring or early summer (of 2013). I have traveled alone before but sometimes it just more fun when traveling with someone else and lets face it, it can get a little lonely along the way if alone. So, I wanted to find others that are as passionate about traveling as I am but more specifically others who want to do a global trip (or even partial global) that may last a matter of months, at the least, up to 1 year or a year and a …
