Aiding my Zambian brother DizzyKizzy introduce his beautiful song "Father Land" to the international community.  One of the best performed and arranged songs ever produced. DizzyKizzy, a Musician, Actor and Dancer and has played and acted in a number of Music bands and Theatre groups. With your support, help us raise funding to build a combines music school theatre with kitchen so that music students can both learn, perform, but also prepare meals to feed the many children in need of proper nourishment.  Asking human rights activist Bon Jovi to assist in this effort to promote this beautiful song to result in a version of JBJ Soul Kitchen in Zambia that will function as a music school/theatre for DizzyKizzy a kitchen for students to prepare meals for the people. Perhaps a model that can expand throughout Africa.  But I am not stopping with Bon Jovi.  So much has been stolen from Africa, that it is time to give back other than dropping food from airplanes. We all have a Father Land in our hearts and minds to escape to find piece of mind.  Listen to these powerful lyrics.

UNVEILING ORPHEUS stanzas

A fitting song for this CoronaVirus when too many are not taking care of themselves, pushing the rest of us to the plate to insist even if if  hurt feelings.  Broken hearts can be mended. A Ryam perfection.
