by Howard CampbellSOUTH FLORIDA After a strong 2019, singer/songwriter Hopeton Lindo maintains his momentum with Guilty which is currently number one on the South Florida Reggae Chart. Released on Valentines Day, Guilty features fellow singer Fiona whom he had a number one hit with In Your Eyes in December. Given the success of In Your Eyes, he stated that it was only natural to follow-up with Fiona, who like him, is a longtime resident of South Florida. Lindo produced the song which is a cover of Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibbs 1980 international smash. Working with Sly and Robbie and Baker in Kingston, and Willie Lindo and Trainline Records in South Florida, Lindo has released a series of well-received singles since 2017.

Since his soft-opening on Valentines Day, Quinones admits foot traffic has been scarce, limited to people whove already been to our pub on the Broadwalk, he says. During a Monday evening visit, chatty Las Olas tourists in chinos on the sidewalk outside passed the brewpub without a glance. Quinones nods in the direction of Louie Bossis, where the din of clinking silverware and lively conversation is loud enough to be heard.

I think Ive learned a lot by observing the way people love. It was not until only recently while being single that I realized how I showed affection and how I liked affection to be shown to me. I dont know who needs to hear this, but knowing how you love does not need to come from being in a relationship. There are many ways we experience love every day that we seem to always take for granted once Valentines Day comes around. Being single for so long used to be a cause of concern for me because I assumed that it meant I was lonely.

Though the societal representation of queer couples is growing day by day, Valentines Day is still not a day that is designed for queer-identifying folks and couples. Of course, historically, Valentines Day wasnt about same-sex or queer couples; it wasnt even about heterosexual couples. SpectrUM, our schools student organization for LGBTQIA+ identifying folks, however, will be partnering with the Lambda Theta Alpha sorority to have a Palentines Day celebration the day before Valentines Day. Galentines Day emerged as a time to celebrate with the women friends in your life while Palentines Day is a gender-inclusive day to celebrate all friendships. Do more to celebrate queerness this Valentines Day and all further years.

PARKLAND, Fla. - Had it not been for the 2018 Valentines Day massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Joaquin Oliver would be celebrating his 19th birthday on Sunday. "This is the second time that I am in a situation where there is a mass shooting close to me," Manuel Oliver said about the dreadful coincidence. In the last week, there were also mass shootings at a festival in Northern California, a Walmart in Mississippi and early Sunday morning at a popular entertainment district in Dayton, Ohio. All of the carnage happened while the student activists from Parkland were getting ready to go back to school. Another senseless & horrific mass shootings of innocent persons as we still ponder & pray for the victims & families of the #elpasotexas massacre.
