kickstarter
By Jahni Kwatrae for his Project: Kubadilisha.
“ Please check out the @kickstarter for our project!!! Kubadilisha: ጥሩ ጭራቆች the action packed Tokusatsu and Super Sentai Sci-fi epic with an Afrocentric twist. Had so many ups and downs trying to do my film and comic book thing! No matter how hard I fall no matter how big I fail. I refuse to lose! One day it will happen....hopefully that day is today, please check out the Kickstarter to my newest project. THIS IS A STORY FOR ALL AGES!!! “ Art by @welinthonnommo @venusbambisa @illesigns @joe.davis.art @thisiskimoz_
What Is Kubadilisha?
Kubadilisha is a retelling of the classic genres, Tokusatsu and Super Sentai, with an Afrocentric twist and told in a manga median. Just imagine properties like Gatchaman, Kamen Rider, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Guyver, Voltron, and Dragonball Z all bonded together with multicultural folklores to create one epic tale of human triumph. This is told from the cultural perspective of people of color from across the world. Many of the African, Asian, African-American, Afro Asiatic, Afro-Latino, and the Aztec people on Earth have all united in the land of Africa to build a new promised land which they all now call, AITHIOPIA. Aithiopia consists of all 54 African nations united as one with the inclusion of other people of all colors around the world. Pan Afrikan ideology is the backbone of this sci-fi saga series
THE MAIN CHARACTERS
Akida is the leader of The School. He comes from a strong militant family so a leadership role is pretty much built into his DNA. He's the second oldest of The School members and is of Eritean descent. He is a skilled strategist and is able to think well under pressure. At times, Akida can be arrogant but still means well. His immaturity shows sometimes due to trust issues he has with his teammates during missions. The worse case scenario is always on his mind. This is why he has great prep time capabilities. He is gear head that loves fixing cars and small engines and taking his hoover bike on the country side for very high rides. He is the captain of his high school rugby team and is very popular and well liked with the majority of his peers and teachers. The monster, Koi, he transforms into can fly, has hydrokinetic abilities and his arms can morph into different types of cannons that shoot powerful water projectiles into any shape he can imagine (i.e. a large hammer, or sharp blade like weaponry). Koi is the only monster that uses water as a power beam.
Maisha is actually the brains and rebel of the group. She is half Japanese and half Afro-Guyanese. She is a lot more reserved than the others. Her punk / nerd girl personality are two polarizing identities she must balance. So, at times she can be insecure. She loves virtual gaming and learning. She is easily the smartest of all the youngsters. She is the medic for The School when injuries occur in combat. She's the top pupil in the Chess, Medical Science, and Mancala clubs. She is also on the varsity squad of her school's fencing team which is the only sport she loves. Maisha transforms into the monster Cnidaria. Cnidaria is a jellyfish and onna-bugeshia type of creature. She becomes completely poisonous and immune to all poisons. She has camouflage ability and can make herself blend with surroundings. This gives her great stealth ability. Cnidaria gives Maisha skills to master more weapons than any other member. She's the deadliest with any edge weapon.
Wasim is South African and the eldest of the group. He is known as the loner due to his neurodevelopment and skin disorders. He has high-functioning autism (HFA) and albino skin. He is the most skilled fighter of the Pneuma Children and has the most discipline. He follows directions very well and it is a must that he finishes all tasks before moving to the next. He is the one best trusted to do a solo mission as he's very precise. This reflects his dexterity in mathematics and symbolizes the absolution he demands in his life. He's good at puzzles and decoding as well. Wasim is often praised by his superiors. However, he does have difficult communicating, building an emotional connection, socially interacting, and even showing expressions to the other Pneuma Children. They all still do their best to make sure Wasim knows he's a big part of The School family. Wasim transforms in the monster Azuerus The Okopipi. It is the only non-sea creature of The School, resembling a frog. It has great leaping ability, agility, and is highly acrobatic. It can also cling to any surface, even sheer ice. It amplifies his great fighting ability, making him the most dangerous in hand-to-hand combat.
Reockis is the Nigerian wild child, loose cannon jokester. He is filled with high energy and can be a bit of a sadist due to the fact that he loves a good fight and is probably the bravest of them all. He often goes into danger head first. He's the youngest of the group so he's constantly trying to prove himself to the others. He's also the fastest member of the group. Reockis can be very immature at times and never misses the opportunity to play a practical joke. He enjoys the sport of cricket or any stick-and-ball type of sport, but his favorite is Dambe (Hausa Boxing). He loves embracing his Hausa tribal heritage and this is the reason he so proudly shows off his facial scarification. Reockis transforms into the monster they call Piranha Boi. This monster is filled with aggression and relentless bravery. His persona is much like the fish it resembles. If speed kills then Piranha Boi has it as he moves at mach speed. He has very quick reflexes and reacts to action much faster than anyone.
Teo is the friendly, humble Dominicano giant. He is one of few words. He spends his time painting and meditating. He is a very artistic illustrator and sculptor and even writes spoken word poetry. He loves exercising especially weightlifting. Teo is very tall and has a massive body frame for him to only be a teenager. This is due to his gigantism growth hormone which also effects his sight. Because of his nyctophobia (fear of going blind), he has severe anxiety attacks when his eyeglasses are removed. Teo is the youngest professional wrestler in the world and often takes on opponents twice his age. He is also skilled to build explosives and with EOD (Explosive Ordinance Disposal). The monster, Whale, that Teo transfoms into embraces his size. It attributes this to giving him such great strength. Despite the fact that he's a large person, he still moves swiftly. And he's so powerful that he's only armed with his fists that are equipped with claws.
Turquoise is an android strictly created for battle. She was built to lack emotion and complete missions. She is a 'Mimeo' type of android. Mimeo androids are modeled after a person who once lived and become vessels for their conscience. However, their conscience is programed to take on the personality written by the coder. Turquoise is actually modeled after Karalexis's younger sister who died young in a freak accident. Since only five cell fusions were successful and Karalexis felt there was a need for a sixth member, Turquoise was created to assist The School members as trump card. Turquoise is cell fused with Illudium and each of the other School member's DNA. She's like a cousin to them all, but instead of being human, she's a cybernetic organic android. She is able to connect with each member on a telepathic level. Only Karalexis truly knows Turquoise 2.0's purpose and the extent of her powers. For now she is a misunderstood mystery to the Pneuma Children.
Grandmaster is the world's greatest human fighter. He is so powerful that his Qi delivers an aura that makes his clothing glow. He is called the ageless wonder because he is said to be over 300 years old. His youthful appearance comes from his Qi.
Although he was born in America, he is of Wodaabe descent. He is actually the last American-born man alive. In prior years, Grandmaster walked the Earth to find the world's greatest fighters and defeated everyone he ever faced. He then went into retirement to live in peace. Years later, Karalexis asks for his help with the 'Pneuma Seed' program. She wants him to train the members of The School to become stronger fighters than they could ever imagine so that when they transmogrify into Pneumas, their bodies become very durable and gifted with super abilities. Grandmaster agrees to assist. It has been many years since people, such as those comprising The School, have been able to withstand his attacks. So, when he trains with the youngsters, he's having the time of his life. His tutelage can sometimes be cruel but he knows what they can take so he often pushes them further than they believe are their limits.
The witty Sudanese mad scientist and the world's smartest person, Karalexis, is director and creator of the 'Pneuma Seed' program which spawn the heroic team known as The School. Karalexis is withholding a major secret from the entire world. The aliens she stole the Illudium from are coming for it. To top it off, the hostile aliens will more than likely not ask for the Illudium politely. These alien invaders are very powerful, like Gods. So, she created the bio-engineering conglomerate Ichor Corp to give the War Council of Aithiopia the illusion that it is to develop and research Illudium, create weapons and build a stronger, more advanced society for Aithiopia. While this is true, she never mentions that Earth and all humanity are in grave danger. Knowing the Earth would need to be prepared, she began the Pneumo Seed program with guidance and permission of the Ancestors. She created the process of fusing Illudium with a human embryo at conception.
Although their parents are involved in the The School's heroic program, Karalexis acts like a surrogate mother to all the members. She oversees their daily routines, training, and diet with the help of other trusted workers. Because she was the only survivor of fifty others during their mission, she has a whimsical and eccentric personality. She doesn't take anything in life too seriously and has a 'laugh now, cry later' type of attitude. The butterfly tattooed on her face symbolizes her new life. She is not the Karalexis she once was. When she returned to Earth she was reborn as the world's smartest person but went completely

Bicyclists in Downtown Atlanta in 1897! They're in front of homes on Ellis Street, just west of its intersection with Courtland.
I wonder what's in that spot now? Maybe a restaurant? If so they could put this photo up on the wall.
Here, I'll do a Google search OH NOOOOOOO!

INTERVIEW: ONLY CRUCIFIXES ARE SACRED IN 'HARRIET TUBMAN: DEMON SLAYER'
INTERVIEW: ONLY CRUCIFIXES ARE SACRED IN ‘HARRIET TUBMAN: DEMON SLAYER’
HARRIET TUBMAN: DEMON SLAYER started as a joke. It would almost have to, right? Writer/creator David Crownson credits the inception of HARRIET TUBMAN: DEMON SLAYER to a fateful bit of channel surfing. Specifically, channel surfing between the God awful HANSEL & GRETEL: WITCH HUNTERS movie and a documentary on Harriet Tubman. “…Seconds later I wrote down “Harriet Tubman : Demon Slayer” on my…

Peachtree Street church to developers: Come build affordable housing on our 1.8 acres

Downtown’s historic Atlanta First United Methodist Church wants “God-size vision” for parking lots, side buildings
The latest downtown Atlanta church to offer land in a high-profile place is looking for the right developers to bring what church leaders call a “God-size vision” to fruition.
The intent at downtown’s historic Atlanta First United Methodist Church, which has been housed in a gothic-style sanctuary at 360 Peachtree Street for more than 115 years, is twofold, leaders say: to capitalize on a surging intown real estate market while answering the call for more affordable housing.
Specifically, the church is seeking partners though a Request For Proposals process to transform 1.8 acres of downtown land it owns between Peachtree and West Peachtree streets, immediately south of the Medical Arts Building.
Apart from some renovations, the church building would not be changed.
Remaining images courtesy of 360 Peachtree Street
The site’s breakdown, with Peachtree Street at bottom right.
For now, the site consists of pay parking lots, an existing education building, and an outbuilding that’s not being used.
Church representative Kevin Holt said the goal is to create a mixed-use affordable housing node that—given the site’s SP1 zoning classification—could hypothetically be a tower rising 50 stories or more.
“The church would like to develop something impactful,” Holt tells Curbed Atlanta, via email. “But the actual scope will depend on the plans developed with the chosen development partner.”
As stipulated in the RFP, one component beyond “affordable/attainable housing” will have to be at least 50,000 square feet for an expansion of the church’s Atlanta First Day School, with parking for at least 150 vehicles.
Survey of the site in question, with church parcels outlined in black.
The ministry has operated downtown for more than 170 years.
“As the delineator between downtown and midtown, we believe the time has come to make a significant impact in our city for the days to come,” Reverend Jasmine Rose Smothers writes in the RFP. “To bring this God-size vision to life, we’re looking for the ideal real estate development partner who shares our vision and values while considering the best and highest mission and use.”
The RFP is now available for viewing at 360PeachtreeStreet.com.
From behind the church today.
An onsite tour for interested parties is planned September 10, and all final proposals are due October 7.
In December, another downtown house of worship, the 151-year-old First Congregational Church, issued a similar RFP call to redevelop a smaller, .8-acre parcel near the corner of Ellis and Courtland streets.
We’ve asked officials for updates on that proposal and will add any information to this story that comes.

5 NFL wide receivers who became stars in 2019
INDIANAPOLIS, IN – OCTOBER 27: Courtland Sutton #14 of the Denver Broncos makes a first down catch during second quarter of the game against the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Arena on October 27, 2019 in Indianapolis, Indiana. (Image by Bobby Ellis/Getty Images)
This year, we saw a bunch of young receivers take the leap from solid player to fame. Here are five names to know entering into 2020.
Every season, there are a handful of receivers who make a leap, normally throughout their 2nd or third campaign. It’s one of the couple of positions where their growth can be determined by data, and their development is easily seen. Today, we are having a look at the 5 receivers who have actually made the next action in their advancement throughout the 2019 season.
Chris Godwin, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Amongst the players that have actually made the biggest leaps this season is Chris Godwin of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The very first two seasons of Godwin’s career were modest, catching 93 passes for 1,367 lawns and 8 goals. But in 2019, he became one of the very best receivers finishing third in the NFL with 1,333 receiving lawns. Not only did he acquire yardage, however he was also one of the league’s premier red-zone dangers, scoring nine goals.
Godwin missed the group’s last two games of the season with a hamstring injury, however he showed he can be 1B to Mike Evans’ 1A. In fact, you can even make a case that Godwin surpassed him this season. Nevertheless, Godwin’s breakout season has actually developed him as one of the best young receivers in the NFL.
D.J. Moore, Carolina Panthers
Generally, the second season for receivers is when they make the biggest leap. And for 22- year-old D.J. Moore, that jump probably should not have occurred given the surrounding scenarios. Moore had fun with a banged-up Web cam Newton, a streaky Kyle Allen, and then 2019 third-round pick Will Grier. He likewise used an offense that had a hard time to move the ball consistently for most of the season, despite the fantastic play of Christian McCaffrey.
However, Moore has found a method to produce despite the circumstances. Moore amounted to over 1,175 getting yards and 4 goals, becoming Carolina’s the majority of consistent weapon in the passing game. While the raw statistics are fantastic, Moore still has a lot of growing to do as a receiver. That need to be a terrifying idea for opposing cornerbacks for the next a number of seasons.
Michael Gallup, Dallas Cowboys
Considering that the Cowboys made the trade to obtain Amari Cooper last season, he has actually stolen the show in Dallas as he’s reminded everyone how unique he can be. However, Michael Gallup certainly went far for himself as the team’s No. 2 receiver.
In spite of battling a knee injury and missing out on time, Gallup finished 20 th in getting backyards with his first 1,000- yard season. Not only did he end up being a more trustworthy target, however he was likewise Dallas’ finest receiver down the field, balancing over 16 backyards per reception. Gallup still needs to enhance on his route-running and hands, but it’s clear he is among the finest No. 2 receivers in the league.
D.J. Chark, Jacksonville Jaguars
Possibly among the most unexpected receivers to break out was 2018 second-round pick D.J. Chark. In just two seasons, Chark captured passes from 4 different quarterbacks over his first two seasons, including Blake Bortles and Cody Kessler. Despite all of the quarterback turnover, Chark has discovered a way to produce.
In just 13 games this season, Chark ended up with 1,008 backyards, scoring eight touchdowns. Coming out of LSU, Chark was a deep-threat who required a lot of deal with his route-running. He’s become a lot more polished gamer since entering the NFL. If the Jaguars can ultimately find some stability at quarterback, whether it’s Nick Foles or Gardner Minshew, look for Chark to become that much more explosive. Together, he and Dede Westbrook are among the most underrated and electrical receiver duos in the NFL.
Courtland Sutton, Denver Broncos
Finally, the receiver that has actually made the biggest leap in 2019 is none other than Courtland Sutton. Much like Chark, Sutton has actually dealt with a quarterback merry-go-round as the Broncos have struggled to find any consistency at the position. Nevertheless, that hasn’t stopped Sutton as he established into a legitimate No. 1 receiver.
Sutton totaled 1,112 receiving backyards and 6 goals for Denver in his second year out of SMU. With his mix of size, speed, and ball-tracking ability, there is absolutely nothing stopping Sutton from turning into one of the league’s very-best receivers.
