Mixed Hues & Why seeing people who look like you MATTERS SO MUCH!!!
Okay, before we start here is my disclaimers. I did NOT receive any remuneration (in dollars, pesos, yen, great British pounds or in-kind like being fed grapes by a naked Kofi Siriboe).

I’ve never imagined life without her. NEVER. … and suddenly, now I’m here.
I’m losing my baby this weekend. There is no words to describe my pain. Tomorrow she will be 15yrs old. From the second I held her in my arms, I’ve never imagined life without her. NEVER. … and suddenly, now I’m here.

This is Jessie. She is my first small mammal. A pure breed, Wire-haired Patterdale terrier from Wales. I brought her to America with me when I came back. She is now 12. She will be 13, July 1, 2015.

On any given day, a constant stream of young people carrying everything they own in plastic garbage bags fills the courtyard. The prospective residents are just teenagers, but have already been labeled drug addicts, schizophrenics, criminals, prostitutes, and outcasts.
#BESummit – Representation Matters
I am very thankful to the #BESummit for reminding me of my importance in my local community. It reminded me that as a Black American woman who champions scholarship and who champions community that I have to do more. It reminds me that I have to think big and that I have to strive to do better - always.
