One year ago, on 30 October 2020, WSF went live with a post by Mark Burford on Marian Anderson. In the past challenging year there have been 45 posts, including 8 by guest authors and 6 that were group posts. To celebrate this moment, we have redesigned the website. Now, all photos are taken from posts in the past year. To launch us on Year 2, Mark Burford writes about Mahalia Jackson and the soft power of Gospel Sisterhood.
