Poems, Lessons, and Melodies from Blight Chronicles the Opera, FULL
"Poems, Lessons, and Melodies from Blight Chronicles the Opera" is a journey into the unseen stories of blight. This video series uses poetry, song, and storytelling to reveal what abandoned buildings and overgrown lots often hide: the resilience, hardship, and hope of communities left behind. Blight isn’t just physical decay; it’s a reminder of forgotten neighborhoods and overlooked lives.
In each episode, I share personal reflections shaped by my work in Flint, Michigan, and beyond-stories of survival in spaces that others have written off. Through original spoken word and operatic melodies, we explore the real impact of blight and what it takes to rebuild from within. This series is for...

I wonder how proud Dr. Clark would be to know her son-in-law, Bishop Drew Sheard is now the presiding Bishop and Prelate, and Chief Apostle and Karen, her baby daughter, is the First Lady of the entire Church of God in Christ? What a legacy!
Rest in love, peace, and happiness, Daniel 🕊

Dr.Mattie Moss Clark reminds me so much of my fostermom, Dr.Viola Brunson; she too, was a minister of music, a church organist;my sister & I attended 2 churches & were in 2 choirs!!!❤
DMMC could sing this song.
Wow I can't believe that place is closed now.
That whole area used to be a beautiful campus. So sad to see the devastation.
That second "you don't kno how blessed you are " stirred my soul...

Thanks for posting this video documentary
I went to school here at St Agnes from 1963 to 1971 grades 1-8. The 2 story building was called Building C with the Bingo hall and kitchen on the bottom floor and classrooms on the 2nd floor. Grades 1-3. That was connected to Building B (the middle building) for grades 4-6, and finally the last section was called Building A for grades 7-8. Building A had the cafeteria in the basement and classrooms on the upper level. Prior to Powers Catholic Central opening around 1971, St Agnes was grades 1-12, but the high school merged with several other Catholic Schools when Powers opening. My mother worked in the St Agnes Rectory, that is the housing building next to the garage. The Rectory was where the priests lived. On the other side of the church building is the convent, where the nuns lived. Back in the day I remember the football fields (the regular field and the practice field) were separated by the building that housed the 2 locker rooms. Then there were the to ball diamonds where we played a lot of baseball. On the far side of the 2nd baseball diamond was the wooded area we called "The Grove" and it had a small building that was abandoned even when I grew up there. I lived just 3 houses away from St Agnes at 401 W Parkway Ave. You can see it on Zillow and Google Maps. Our old house sold in 2022 for just $1200. Sad what has happened to this whole area due to poverty, drugs, crime, unemployment and bad government. The whole are looked a LOT better when I lived there. I moved out of Flint and out of Michigan in 1976 to join the Air Force. Boy I'm glad I left, never to live in Flint again.
Aman Aman thank you for sharing ❤.

Beautiful.
The performances we've all been denied due to ignorance fear and bigotry.
I'd love to see more.
Well done Darnell
Thanks so much for listening, Charlie, and also for your support!
Dr. Clark spoke the truth!!❤
Love it!
😢This was very informative, but kind of sad and scary all at the same time. My heart goes out to the young man, he is very courageous. ❤ Peace & Blessings
Wonderful, keep it up great work
Nice
