And just like that… summer is officially wrapping up! ☀️🎾

So what better way to spend Labor Day than finally sharing long-overdue recaps we’ll start with this one… from just before our U.S. Open festivities!

The Althea Gibson Sports & Education Foundation led by Michelle Curry joined forces with Australia’s Rally4Ever, led by Louise Pleming, for our “End of Summer Rally” in Newark, NJ right where Althea’s legacy continues to stand tall. 🇺🇸🇦🇺

What a beautiful morning with the children, parents and community who came out to learn, play and celebrate. The kids walked away with fresh fruit, tennis rackets, school supplies plenty of smiles and some new international friends! 💜

Thank you to everyone who showed up, supported and helped make the day special. Althea’s Angels were definitely in effect! 😇🎾

Every opportunity to introduce another generation to Althea Gibson and continue honoring her extraordinary legacy is one we’re incredibly grateful for.

Australia met Newark and the kids won! 🎾🌎💜🎾

Capitol Public Relations was happy to support client DJ Beverly Bond and BLACK GIRLS ROCK! for a very special morning on Good Morning America as GMA revealed the cast of Season 35 of Dancing with the Stars!

And what a moment to be part of Beverly on the ones and twos as our “Fresh Princess,” Tatyana Ali, took us back with her hit “Daydreamin’” before getting ready to trade the GMA stage for the ballroom! 💃🏽🪩

Always a pleasure supporting Beverly and the BGR! team, and we appreciate the GMA and DWTS teams for making the experience such a great one.

✨💐OK, so this post is the most random and most imPRomptu, I’ve PRobably ever done if you know me and you know me well then you know I Love myself some Dolly Parton and seeing that she’s passed although she lived to be 80 years old, which is a great age and it’s a Blessing; maaan when I tell you as a young girl living in Germany and only having a few movies via Beta Max, VHS tapes to watch (AFN offerings were slim…another story for another day) when I say I wore her movie 🍿“Best Little Wh******se in Texas” out I Did!! 📺 and to this Day One of my Favorite songs “Hard Candy Christmas” I still randomly sing…🎶 (and yes I also know I can’t sing 🎶 but you shall suffer through it! 😉😜)

Yes we know the other hits and then also as an adult in My current capacity I had the pleasure of working with a few Women who worked with her and were looking at filming funding movies (wanted more “diverse” stories); and so I’ve sent stuff to connect with her team etc.

So when I woke up today Feeling like I needed to do blonde hair, not the Bob but the big Blonde Hair👱🏽‍♀️…now I know why ☺️rest in peace Dolly.✨🕊️💐

Maaan listen this scene… Rest Well!
🕊️💐🙏🏽🕊️💐🪦

🕊️Actor Michael Wright, whose performance as Eddie Kane Jr. in The Five Heartbeats became one of the most memorable roles in Black cinema, has died at 70.

Wright’s wife confirmed his passing on Aug. 21, according to multiple reports. A cause of death has not yet been publicly announced, with the family expected to share additional information at a later time.

Released in 1991 and directed by Robert Townsend, The Five Heartbeats followed the rise, struggles and brotherhood of a fictional R&B vocal group. Wright’s portrayal of the gifted but troubled lead singer became a defining part of the film, which has grown into an enduring Black cinema classic.

His career extended well beyond the film. Wright also appeared in The Wanderers, Streamers, The Principal, Sugar Hill and The Interpreter, while television audiences knew him from V, New York Undercover, Oz and Black Lightning.

Wright leaves behind a body of work filled with performances that carried intensity, vulnerability and unmistakable presence, with Eddie’s journey in The Five Heartbeats remaining especially cherished by generations of viewers.

Rest in peace, Mr. Wright… and thank you. 🙏🏿🤍🖤🖤🖤🖤

RIPMichaelWright
