Today signaled a momentous occasion and day as I turned @iabdinc over to new leadership. 💃🏾 To say this has been a journey is an understatement. This has been my life, literally; mind, body and spirit. No holding back. I have given it my all. https://t.co/5BzymGRIC5

TODAY. Would you help me share this image, along with the following quote from my father, across the globe today?

“This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action."

#DSTNoChaserStraightTalk This summer, as the remaining pandemic restrictions are lifted, I'm wishing Black folx can be fully free to enjoy the parks, the cookouts, the beaches, the block parties, the bird watching, the evening drive, all of the things that scream fun & Black joy.
