Baptista’s painting of the Christ, my friend was exhibited in Riker’s Protestant chapel in 1971. It was sponsored by Minister Daniel Shank. In addition to being the Protestant minister at Rikers, Reverend Shank was prominent in AIDS awareness at a time when it was raging throughout New York City.

A friend and I made a quick visit to MOMA. It’s open! I’ve  spent a lot of time in MOMA so I looked for old friends: Jackson Pollack and The Black-American migration to the north.

Palm Sunday was rainy. I joined a Presbyterian service under the Washington Arch. Splatter, splatter. It was wonderful.
