The Shades Of Afrika bookstores are located in the cities of Corona and Long Beach, right on the edge of Los Angeles County. This gift shop has African cultural relics, products, herbs, and educational resources at an affordable rate so that their prices are accessible for all. The website is a great source for locating products if you can’t make it to either of their locations. The Afrikan art is just as mesmerizing as their extensive collection of African literature.

Now, as therapist Dr. Brooke Taylor, Aduba is fixing her penetrating gaze on a trio of patients in HBOâs revival of the 2008-2010 drama âIn Treatment,â which premieres May 23 at 9 p.m. with back-to-back episodes, followed by two more on May 24.

Tens of millions of Americans have been vaccinated against COVID-19. But tens of millions more haven’t yet.
We traveled around Southern California Whittier Boulevard, Echo Park, Huntington Beach, Santa Monica, Baldwin Hills and Hollywood to ask people whether they would take the vaccine when it was offered to them, and if not, why.
