Art is a powerful tool for telling stories, sharing ideas, and inspiring change. Barack and I are so proud that the Obama Presidential Center features extraordinary pieces by some of the most visionary artists of our time. We can't wait for you to visit!

18 years ago, I married my pen in a lil church in Kleinburg. We have been on a honeymoon since. No idea what I was doing but I was in love; there was a limo, sax, cake, flowers, bridesmaid & groomsmen, in front of family & friends, I committed.

I spent the weekend as a vendor on the patio of my favourite Jamaican restaurant in Niagara Falls. The owner asked me to help him celebrate Jamaica’s 64th Independence and although at first I had a bit of trepidation, I am so glad I did it.

Apologies don’t live in books, they pick up their feet and walk towards restoration.
Looking forward to reading at this historical Family reunion event. “a sprinkle of Nadine”

To everyone who helped bring the Obama Presidential Center to life, thank you. Michelle and I are so grateful for all your dedication and hard work over the years.

I got a little teary-eyed tonight thinking about my mother-in-law, Marian Robinson.
