    Sedona AZ (January 18, 2019) – You’re sure to find something to your liking with the variety of programs that the Library is offering this month.  We’re listing a sample, most of which are offered in the Si Birch Community Room at the main library on White Bear Road in West Sedona.  The book discussion on January 29 will be at Sedona Winds in the Village of Oak Creek.

    Saturday, January 19, 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.  T’ai-Chi Ch’uan Introductory Workshop with Blaine Harris.

    Saturday, January 26, 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Preventative Health through Ayurveda and Meditation.  At this program, Marie-Josephine Royall-Schreck, an RN, certified meditation teacher, and yoga therapist, will introduce the Ayurvedic perspective on maintaining a balanced state of health through daily habits, including meditation.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
