Today is Tabaski in Senegal. ‘Tabaski’ is simply the Wolof expression of the Muslim holiday Eid-Al-Adha. The feast commemorates the story of Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son at God’s command. Pretty much every family in Senegal will slaughter a sheep or a goat for the family feast.
Uh oh…
today is the birthday, in 1951, of Bonnie Pointer of the Pointer Sisters.
