Blue Magnetic Storm
We sail –
Along shallow Streams of Obscurity
Into a wide River of Mediocrity
Across tempestuous Seas of Humanity
Through black Storms of Loneliness
Until the distant Shores of Bliss –
Find us.

Dinah Abrahamson
Dinah Abrahamson (1954 – December 17, 2013) was an American author and politician. A native of Omaha, Nebraska, Abrahamson was a member of the Nebraska State Central Committee as well as an active member of the Republican Party. She was also known for her appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Network special on the lives of Hasidim Jews. Abrahamson and her family were most memorable for being one of few African American families associated with the Chabad Lubavitch movement.
Early life
Abrahamson was born in Omaha, Nebraska in 1954, the daughter of immigrants. Her father was of Afro-Panamanian descent and her mother was Caucasian of Ashkenazi Jewish descent from Germany. Raised by her mother and maternal grandparents, Abrahamson grew up in a secular Jewish household.
Religious views
In 1993, Abrahamson and her two children joined the Hasidim Jewish dynasty, Chabad Lubavitch. After being raised in a secular household, Abrahamson became religious as she grew older. The Abrahamson's were one of few black Hasidim families
in the Omaha area.
Her daughter Sarah eventually moved to Brooklyn, New York to work at a Hasidic Jewish day school. Shortly afterward, Abrahamson and her son Yosef joined Sarah in New York City in order to be closer to a larger Jewish community. The family ultimately settled in Crown Heights, a neighborhood known for both its large African-American and Hasidim Jewish communities who live side by side in the area.
Politics
Abrahamson was an active member of the Republican Party. She was a member of the Nebraska State Central Committee, as well as a supporter of Nebraska politician Lee Terry who was a family friend of Abrahamson's.
Writing
At the time of her death, Abrahamson had self-published a book on race relations in America.
Death
Abrahamson died on December 17, 2013. She is survived by her children, her sister, and a granddaughter.*

Kin 79: Blue Magnetic Storm
I unify in order to catalyze
Attracting energy
I seal the matrix of self-generation
With the magnetic tone of purpose
I am guided by my own power doubled.
In order to establish memory as continuing consciousness, we must cultivate meditative awareness and the natural mind of innocence - the root of enlightened being.*
