WhenTiffany Ortez Parish entered the lavish home belonging to a late American Airlines pilot and his wife, she knew she was stepping into a time capsule, exploring the opulent residence suited for entertaining in the 1960s and 1970s. She discovered family heirlooms — textiles and gowns from the 1920s and 1930s — lovingly preserved and meticulously cataloged by the wife who kept a record of everything.

Tamara Johnson’s life today is quite a departure from her stressed-out, burned-out days donning flashy suits and high heels and running full steam ahead from one obligation to the next. This new version of herself has her looking inward, practicing self-love and meditation, and being OK with just being. For her, it’s about balance and mindfulness, skills she’s learned and honed through yoga.
- Yoga Changed Her Life, by LaRue V. Gillespie, P 46
“Soul food, it would seem, depends on an ineffable quality. It is a combination of nostalgia for and pride in the food of those who came before … soul food looks back at the past and celebrates a genuine taste palate while offering more than a nod to the history of disenfranchisement of blacks in the United States.”
- The Soul of Como, by Hannah Ezell, P 52
The history of Opal Lee’s life covers the walls of her Fort Worth home. Numerous awards and mementos for her community and civil rights work. Photos of her family’s ancestry hang on a small, wired tree. A large painting of another family tree spreads its branches across a dining room wall.
