Recording Artist, Cellist, Singer-Songwriter and Composer Kendall Ramseur
Before meeting and having the opportunity to photograph Kendall performing, his amazing new release T.I.M.E had already moved me, just as Kendall put it “I’m so grateful that “Time” spoke to you”. In deed it has. I am looking forward to having this beautiful tune as part of my Haiti project.
“I believe I was placed here on this Earth to inspire those that have lost sight of their dreams to encourage those that have lost all hope and to help heal the broken. My desire is to create and perform heart felt music not only to stimulate the heart and mind but reach and touch the soul. “T.I.M.E.” – Truths in Many Experiences – Kendall Ramseur
Kendall is just amazing and inspiring !!
ArtsEmerson/The Elma Lewis Center for Civic Engagement for Civic Engagement, Learning and Research
I was very pleased and excited to be called upon from Akiba Abaka, Audience Development Manager of ArtsEmerson to photograph the first campus event for the Elma Lewis Center for Civic Engagement, Learning, and Research
The Elma Lewis Center for Civic Engagement, Learning, and Research and ArtsEmerson:The World On Stage presented a panel discussion on the presence of race and class disparities in media responses to urban and suburban acts of violence. Presented in conjunction with ArtsEmerson’s presentation of Columbinus, a powerful and poignant drama based on the 1999 school shootings at Columbine High School.
The panel discussion was moderated by Kelly Bates, Esq., Founding Executive Director of the Elma Lewis Center with an introduction by Lee Pelton, President of Emerson College, who has been a national leader on the issue of gun safety. Panelists included Phillip Martin (Senior Investigative Reporter, WGBH-FM), Courtney Mark Grey (Director of Trauma Services, Boston Public Health Commission), Michael Patrick MacDonald (Author of All Souls: A Family Story from Southie and Easter Rising, co-founder of Boston’s city-wide gun buyback program), Betty Shoels (Aunt of Columbine shooting victim Isaiah Shoels), and Taisha Akins (Activist).
TALK OF MEDIA AND GUN VIOLENCE by Dan O’Brien, Journalist & News Editor for Emerson College.
Many thanks to Akiba Abaka, Kelly Bates, Dr. Sylvia Spears and Lee Pelton !!

Ashmont Hill
ASHMONT HILL
Ashmont Hill is an idyllic community in Boston from which a large, loving family was birthed into musical tradition. The Thompson family has made beautiful, spiritual music for years in Jubilee Christian Church – the church in which their father is Bishop. Phil Thompson, Sisters April Joy Thompson and Deborah Bullock, along with Deborah’s husband, Wil Bullock heard the call from The Lord to bring their music to a larger community, and have set out, as in Psalm 69:30 to “…praise God’s name in song and glorify him with thanksgiving.”
I am so grateful to Ashmont Hill for there support and there blessings!! Phil, April, Deborah and Wil thank you for giving me the opportunity.
Visit the two links below to one amazing story of Ashmont Hill’s journey with Christ and there newly released album “The Maze” and my personal favorite “Your Love Lifted Me”.
