EVERYTHING LITERARY, words that capture time and space and serve them on a nice platter, music that touches the deep regions of my soul, humanitarian efforts that educate and uplift

Fire lyrics that blaze a path of destruction across the Babylonian terrain; Love tunes that put to music the euphoric ecstacy that I experience daily
My all-time favorites (i.e., movies that I will watch everyday should I come across them while channel surfing) include Hotel Rwanda, Forrest Gump, Signs, The Village, Coming to America, Get on the Bus, Disappearing Acts, Waterboy, The Matrix, The Joy Luck Club, The Color Purple, Super Size Me, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, Waiting to Exhale, and How Stella Got Her Groove Back
The Cosby Show will forever remain the number one best family show on television (in my mind, anyway). Th Tudors is on my "MUST WATCH WEEKLY" list! Boondocks is one of those shows that’s so brazen I get chills. Huey is my hero. Go ‘head little man, fight the power. I’m into documentaries and some reality TV (horrifying but I can’t look away!).
Anything by Ben Ami Ben Israel or Dr. Ben. Anything insightful, inspiring, uplifting and empowering.
