Zamrock, the Afro-rock genre that swept southern Africa in the 1970s, was born in the Copperbelt region of northern Zambia, and WITCH was at the center of it all. In the beginning, lead singer Emmanuel 'Jagari' Chanda and the band looked for a name to match edgy rock sounds coming from Europe and America. First they tried Kingston Market, which sounded too reggae-ish, then they tried Footswitch, but there was a local artist called Dr Footswitch, so they shortened it to Switch, and then finally WITCH. "The posters were handwritten," Jagari recalled, "so we would draw somebody on a broomstick." Hot out of the gate, WITCH signed to Teal Records and began touring in a truck with a canopy emblazoned with the words: "Trespassers will be eaten" The graphic artist who wrote those words also gave the band its enduring acronym: We Intend To Cause Havoc. Jagari recalls, "There was no hesitation. Everyone agreed" And the rest is history.

Tired of giving soap or socks to honor the father(s) in your life? Make a personal card to honor your father(s) and gift it! In this workshop, we use tarot cards to explore fatherhood’s energy. We will celebrate our relationship to fathers and fatherhood through writing and a collage project, with room to explore challenging connections and what we’ve learned from them, including looking at connections forged with chosen family as well as blood family. The simple tarot journaling process we will use will help you discover and uncover your connection to fathering energy and how it can best nurture you. And if you wish, create personal tarot card art you can keep for yourself (your Inner Father) or a card for your actual father or person who fathered you. Bring an open heart, paper and pencil, and some photos of the father you are honoring (photos of you or your father(s)), and any images you feel express the gifts and lessons of that relationship. Please feel free to bring your own tarot deck(s) though your instructor will provide a variety of tarot images. Remember you can point the arrow of this inquiry towards your own father, or towards yourself in the role you play with your children or those you parent. All perspectives and experiences welcome; no prior writing or tarot experience necessary. Comes with a PDF for continuing your exploration on your own. San Diego Writers, Ink on Facebook / Instagram
