MUTE R. KELLY For years, decades even, allegation MUTE R. KELLY For years, decades even, allegations swirled that R&B superstar R. Kelly was abusing young women and girls, with seeming impunity. They were mostly young Black women. And Black girls. Speaking out against sexual assault and violence is fraught for anyone who attempts it. Those who work in the field say the hurdles facing Black women and girls are raised even higher by a society that hypersexualizes them from a young age. Link in bio.
A MAN, A DREAM AND A BOAT TO MAKE IT HAPPEN Actor A MAN, A DREAM AND A BOAT TO MAKE IT HAPPEN Actor/producer, Matthew Rhys shows devotion to the notion of bringing more people to the water in this waterbound city, with one of the greatest natural harbors in the world. “It’s a historic moment — two Wheelers!” said actor/producer Matthew Rhys as his newly restored 38-foot cabin cruiser Rarebit pushed off from its berth at Brooklyn Bridge Park’s One15 Brooklyn Marina on Friday. Rarebit is one of the few remaining original Wheeler Playmates, and it is the sister boat to Ernst Hemingway’s “Pilar.” On Friday, Wes Wheeler, the great-grandson of Howard E. Wheeler, returned to Brooklyn with Legend, the first Wheeler boat built in decades. Over the three and a half years, Rhys and his captain, Kelli Farwell have been working hard to restore the historic Rarebit, which was originally built in 1939 at the Brooklyn Wheeler Shipyard. Welsh-born Rhys lives in Brooklyn Heights and first spotted the Rarebit on eBay. Rarebit is now One15 Brooklyn Marina’s official charter boat. (She can be booked by groups of up to six people for two-hour harbor tours.) Rhys is eager to reunite people with the water here in Brooklyn. Link in bio.
