Obituary for Ms. Mordena M. Moore
The Black Hollywood Education and Resource Center (BHERC) began its “Operation Love” activities in the wee hours of Sunday, May 10. Their goal for this day, one of the most celebrated days of the calendar year across the globe, was to celebrate Mother’s Day with the personal delivery of 500 baskets of essential personal and gift items with dinner to Mother’s who have been in isolation due to the pandemic. Mothers who are seniors, living in assisted living facilities and/or living in shelters and some who are homeless. This national effort took place on both the West and East coast where an additional 500 Washington, D.C. residents received services.
The theme emphasized the movement of people of African descent to new destinations and subsequently to new social realities.
Years ago, when I moved to Los Angeles to attend college at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) I was introduced to an organization called, “Our Authors Study Club.”
The African American Heritage Month observance continues with a closing ceremony at City Hall on Feb. 28 recognizing outstanding Black city employees.
