Banquets, Concerts And Bull Roasts
by Rosa Pryor
May 01, 2013 - Hey everyone! Honey child, the weather is wonderful! This is the time of the year when banquets, concerts and bull roasts are very popular. I love it. This month, I want you young people to take time out to visit your mother or your older family members if you are lucky enough to still have such a person in your life and take them out to dinner, out to the mall, to church or to one of these events I talk about in my column or maybe just a drive around our beautiful city for some fresh air. You know, it could be a neighbor or a friend. Life is so short and you will be surprised how good you will feel after you do this. Our elders should not be forgotten.more More Arrow

April 03, 2013 - Hello everyone! Okay, today, I need your prayers. There is a lot going on with your “Rambling Rose” this week. By the time you read this column, I will have buried my brother William. He was such a beautiful person, very kind-hearted and giving person and I will miss him. Last week, I receive a call from my son, Keith, my first born, who lives in Philadelphia, Pa., and he was a cancer survivor for two years, but he informed me that his cancer is back and he is in stage 4. So you see; prayers, other than my own are needed. Thanks so much. Now let’s look at brighter things to come.more More Arrow

Celebrating Black History Month
by Rosa Pryor
February 20, 2013 - Hello my dear friends, I hope you all are well and not fighting that nasty flu that is going around. It has already hit my house. Well, I am going to try to cheer you up by sharing with you a few of photos and research that took me four years to put together. These photos are from the book that I am about to publish with Xlibris Publishing Company. I want to give you a preview of what you can look forward to when my book, “African-American Community, History & Entertainment in Maryland” (Remembering the Yesteryears) comes out early this spring. I thought it would be a perfect way to end Black History Month. more More Arrow
