September 10, 2024 @ 12:00 pm
She was one of the greatest singers of all time, and in 1939 she was disinvited from performing at Constitution Hall in Washington, DC—because of her race. So instead, with the help of some high-profile friends, she performed a free public concert at the Lincoln Memorial. Join author Lisa Napoli to hear more of Marian Anderson’s story and how this concert changed the course of history by sparking the Civil Rights Movement.
July is UV Safety Awareness Month — and sun protection is important at every age. For older adults especially, taking a few extra steps can help keep skin healthy and strong all summer long.
Here are a few simple tips:
• Wear lightweight clothing that covers arms and legs
• Use broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and reapply often
• Avoid peak sun hours (10 a.m. – 4 p.m.) when possible
• Don’t forget sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat
Protect your skin and enjoy the sunshine safely! ☀️ ... See MoreSee Less
