Artist VALERIE SMITH, and Friends
Being pregnant at age 55 is dauting. In this age group the statistics abound with miscarriages, gestational diabetes, preeclampsia; not to mention down syndrome.
Many try, for “LOVE IS A SPLENDORED THING”; and “you never know until you try”.
For some it is like a flight to outer space, and going through it, they are left with Astronaut Katie Perry’s echo, “what a wonderful world!”
On May 4th (2025) a group of black women gave birth to a TRIBE. All of them are over 55, and embraced the theme, “FROM ROOT TO SKY”.
Jesus was born in a manger, not a sophisticated hospital; so too was this tribe. So, on this day in East Baltimore Maryland, 126 N. Madeira Street, we, the invited, watched the emergence from the birth canal. Osworldofculture.org was there.
