San Francisco is currently celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Summer of Love. This week also marks the dark-side of the city's history. On May 23, 1967 Zeena made her international debut as performance-artist at the first public satanic baptism, orchestrated by her parents' in-house carnival show. She has commemorated the event by creating a personally charged meditative ritual in the form of a soundscape and video collage. [Video below]

I think it was pretty bold of Zeena to defend her father's religion at a time when most of white bread America would have like to have seen her head on a platter.That said,the fact that she continued on to seek what was her own path and fulfill her own quest is an example of becoming your own being.To refuse just what is handed you.
