Menelik Charles with Athena Rose and 2 others.
Old skool love...
No couple epitomised Black Love more so than did singer-songwriters, Ashford & Simpson. To see their image on the cover of Ebony or Jet magazines was like the sun suddenly appearing to overwhelm an overcast sky. One didn’t need to read of their love...they radiated it!
Have you ever seen in a picture of the couple in which they were ever not smiling? Never before has a love been made legend by a couple who merely smiled in one another’s presence. The 80s were tough for us teens in the UK with fascist Thatcher as premier, and for you guys over there with renegade Reagan at the helm. But our youth retained a naivety the youth of today have lost.

We loved because love offered us our deepest desire to connect to
another human being. Today, the most important human connection is to
the internet! But of course, it’s not all bad because we now have the
iconic lovers Barack & Michelle Obama to represent. Their love is
solid...
As a rock!
