Went to a concert at Rosedale United Church last night. I've never been there before. My husband's comment was: "Very clean. Muddy acoustics though."
I was transfixed by the racist(?!) stained glass in the sanctuary. Kneeling Indian chief on left in front of a trio of white men. Trio of slant-eyed Asians at right. Shirtless Black man in loincloth, bound at the wrists.
It appears pink in my photo, but actual background is red. Also ... only men represent nations?

"Church officials at the #Cathedral of Saints Michael and Gudula in #Brussels publicly addressed a centuries-old injustice against the #Jewish community. The ceremony was attended by hundreds, including #Christian leaders, #AlbertGuigui, and other Jewish representatives.
The event centered on historic #stainedglass windows that portrayed a false accusation from 1370, when #Jews were wrongly blamed for desecrating #sacred Christian objects. These allegations, rooted in longstanding #antisemitic myths, led to violence, killings, looting, and the expulsion of Jews from the #DuchyofBrabant.
As part of the ceremony, the stained-glass panels were removed and replaced with a multilingual plaque, including #Hebrew, formally apologizing to the Jewish people. The text acknowledges that similar unfounded accusations across #Europe resulted in persecution, massacres, and expulsions of Jewish communities."

The grand entrance of a 1920s theatre, somewhere in Lebanon. Once a thriving cultural venue, this once-beautiful location is now little more than a shell due to decades of civil war damage.

Typically when we think of stained glass, it's featured in a window of some sort, but I'm borderline *obsessed* with the glaswork you can find at Odd Commodity Shop.

The passion project by Oakland-based Sydney Jones, Odd Commodity Shop features UPCYCLED glass from broken bottles, shattered car windows, etc.

Can we make this happen in Boston? So much of what we used gets landfilled, I would love to divert it and brighten someone's day all at once.
