the president is in town!
well... they said president bush visited chicago, but God didn't like that, so to call attention to the president's atrocities, He burned down a beloved chicago historical landmark - the pilgrim baptist church on 33rd and indiana streets.
and that's all that i did today at work, since the fire broke out at 3 p.m. right in the middle of my shift, google this and pass along that, and answer this, and look for that, all concerning the beautiful turn of the century church in chicago's bronzeville neighborhood.
fortunately, no one was hurt in the blaze, and i mourn for a century and a decade and a half of history, archived music (gospel was said to have been invented there), paintings, stained glass, and most of all, architecture obliterated and passed into history.
i'm totally sorry to see the 1890s structure fall, but goodness, am i tried of typing "pilgrim baptist church." arg! ¶ 1/06/2006 10:12:00 PM
