A moment of reflection as they lit the unity candle. Unfortunately since I was part of the wedding and could not handle the position of my camera, I was only able to capture the bride.
The First Lady Mrs Jeannette Kagame joined the Unity Club Gala Dinner, as part of the celebrations to mark the International Women's Day (IWD).
The gala dinner was organised in partnership with the Minister of Gender and Family Promotion (MIGEPROF) and New Faces New Voices.
This gala dinner also served to highlight the Global Women's Summit, organised in collaboration with New Faces New Voices and IFC World Bank Group.
This summit which was held on the same day, recognised the most outstanding women’s business project.

This night will give you a mouthful of awesomesauce & a dancefloor of energy!

A bit ironic. They sing unity after unifying. Jesse Michaels (of Operation Ivy) joined his former band members to sing Unity. Vic, who was standing right behind me said, "Wow, you don't see that every day." It was a special night.

Unity School of Christianity Historic District includes Unity Tower, the original Silent Unity building (now called the Education Building), and the surrounding landscape. These edifices, designed by Elmer Boillot (1881 - 1957) and Jesse F. Lauck (1888 - 1969), were constructed in 1929 as part of the Unity School of Christianity, which was founded in 1889 by Charles and Myrtle Fillmore in Kansas City, Missouri.
The original Silent Unity Building was the first office building built in the Italian Renaissance style and housed Silent Unity, Unity's 24 hour prayer ministry, until 1988. When Silent Unity moved into its new building at the west end of the quadrangle, the building was remodeled to house the Unity School for Religious Studies, Unity Library, and Archives.
The 165-foot tower, also designed in the Italian Renaissance tradition, contains six floors of office space and a 100,000 gallon water tank to serve Unity Village.
The historic district was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on April 29, 1989. (From a plaque near the base of the tower)
Contrary to popular belief, JFK did have it right: A "Berliner" is both a person from Berlin AND a jelly donut. Regardless, they were delicious!

1905-08, Frank Lloyd Wright
In 1905, after the original Unity Church burned down, the Universalist congregation of Oak Park, Illinois turned to architect Frank Lloyd Wright to design them a new structure. The result was Unity Temple. Wright was not only living in Oak Park, but was a Unitarian - which faith then had many beliefs in common with Universalism. The congregation needed a space of worship, as well as a community room. There were several immediate problems that the architect had to work with in order to satisfy the client. The budget for the Universalist congregation was rather small for its needs: $40,000 US dollars; and the proposed building site was long, but not very wide. Additionally, the building site stood on a busy street. And finally, the architect was expected to design not only the structure, but furniture and stained glass for the building. Charles E. Roberts, an engineer, inventor and an important early client of Frank Lloyd Wright, served on the church's building committee and was a key figure in seeing that Wright's vision for the church became a reality. For Roberts, Wright also remodeled Roberts' home and the Charles E. Roberts Stable.
To accommodate the needs of the congregation, Wright divided the community space from the temple space through a low, middle loggia that could be approached from either side. This was an efficient use of space and kept down on noise between the two main gathering areas: those coming for religious services would be separated via the loggia from those coming for community events. This design was one of Wright's first uses of a bipartite design: with two portions of the building similar in composition and separated by a lower passageway, and one section being larger than the other. The Guggenheim Museum in New York City is another bipartite design.
To reduce noise from the street, Wright eliminated street level windows in the temple. Instead, natural light comes from stained glass windows in the roof and clerestories along the upper walls. Because the members of the parish would not be able to look outside, Unity Temple's stained glass was designed with green, yellow, and brown tones in order to evoke the colors of nature. The main floor of the temple is accessed via a lower floor (which has seating space), and the room also has two balconies for the seating of the congregation. These varying seating levels allowed the architect to design a building to fit the size of the congregation, but efficiently: no one person in the congregation is more than 40 feet from the pulpit. Wright also designed the building with very good acoustics.
The design of Unity Temple represents a leap forward in design for Wright. In recounting his experiences with Unity Temple, he stated that this design was the first time he ever realized that the real heart of a building is its space, not its walls. Indeed, architectural historians have commented on Wright's genius in creating and manipulating space in his designs; in his book The Master Builders, Peter Blake entitled the section on Wright "The Mastery of Space."
In addition to being very accomplished with making the most out of the space he had, Wright also found the concept of "Unity" was very prominent mainly because of how he managed to fuse together space, experience and the material world. This was key to Unity Temple which has both a common meeting area and the congregation of church-goers. The sanctuary space gives the best example of this according to practicing architect Robert McCarter.
The building was completed in 1908 and officially dedicated on September 26, 1909. The original Universalist (now Unitarian Universalist) congregation still owns and uses Unity Temple, although a separate and secular organization, the Unity Temple Restoration Foundation, is in charge of the building's multi-million dollar restoration effort. Chicago restoration architect Gunny Harboe is in charge of the restoration with CTLGroup providing the engineering and materials technology expertise. In April 2009, Unity Temple, due to water seepage, was added to the National Trust for Historic Preservation's 11 most endangered historic places.

This corner lot on Northeast Martin Luther King Boulevard at Shaver St. is on track to become a soul food cart court and an education center where youth can learn about Black History.
The site is the former home of The Burger Barn, which hit the headlines in 1981 when two Portland police officers tossed four dead possums into its doorway, sparking outrage and protests in the Black community. And the possum incident is not the site’s only claim to historical importance…
Owner Andre Raiford said he is happy for the site to become a resource for the community.
The building is set to be renovated and renamed the Common Unity Resource Building. Stocked with archive materials and examples of historic preservation the building will expose students to careers in historic preservation, construction and the STEM disciplines, says Teressa Raiford.
Along with Cathy Galbraith, executive director of the Bosco-Milligan Foundation, Teressa has been working to find grants and other funding for the project. She says she plans to crowdfund some of the money needed through a Kickstarter page. Livermore architects have volunteered to work on the design, which will include shrubs and greenery to shield the eating and meeting area from busy Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.
