Poet, parent Beverly Black Johnson (www.beverlyblackjohnson.com) conceived Gumbo For The Soul in Dec. ’04 which was to originally be an inspirational of sorts. Spiritually, another inspirational didn’t set well with Beverly as the concept lacked depth and originality. “I needed something that addressed the concerns of the community”, commented Ms. Johnson, who birthed anthologies that speak to the concerns of the community focusing on humanitarian issues like education, health and spiritual wellness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The “Gumbo for The Soul” bookcover embraces the bold and beautiful work of Synthia SAINT JAMES, fine artist, author, songwriter, and designer of the widely popular Kwanzaa postage stamp. Website: www.synthiasaintjames.com You’ll find her work on over 50 book covers (which includes books by Alice Walker, Terry Mc Millan, Iyanla Vanzant and Julia Boyd), and on many licensed products. The United States Postal Service commissioned her to create the first Kwanzaa Stamp, made available on October 22, 1997 with the first issue day ceremony at the Natural History Museum in Los Angeles.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
