In every hero’s journey, apotheosis hinges on a trip to the abyss. Hollywood calls this moment the Dark Night of the Soul (DNofS). I greeted mine in the morning, however (DMofS) and with some pride because at 17 years old the scene flattered me by excelling in all the right metrics.

CLEMSON, S.C.—When a team shoots outshoots its opposition 47% to 37% and dominates the interior 36 paint points to 22, one may expect the result to be a comfortable, lopsided victory. However, the reality Sunday afternoon in Clemson for the Blue Devil’s was a far more exhilarating crossing of the finish line. Up nine, with two minutes remaining in the game, the hare relaxed early and began snoozing. Fortunately for Duke, in this instance, they woke up in time to stop the tortoise from completing a demoralizing comeback and stunning upset.

Durham, North Carolina’s roots lie in its history as a beacon of diversity and economic prosperity. Following the 1898 Wilmington Massacre in which white nationalists attempted to regain control of Wilmington through the destruction of Black businesses, many Black residents retreated into Black neighborhoods. For Durham, this retreat signified the growth of Black industry. Its origins can be traced to the formation of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company and the Mechanics and Farmers Bank, among many others. Durham’s Parrish Street neighborhood soon became known as “Black Wall Street” and made Durham the “Capital of the Black Middle Class.”

Unlike these seemingly arithmetic fusions, though, the musical product is often greater than the sum of their parts. And no artist represents this better than the late Durham-born funk icon Betty Davis.
