At a press conference shortly the Black clergy plan to point out that the African refugee crisis is far from over. That when refugees went off the streets, the governments let themselves off the hook. That the churches themselves are on brink of crisis https://t.co/SF9Spx0eCl

As a black woman on a national science show, I intentionally wear braids and my curly Afro to normalize black hair in stem. In this pic, I’m wearing cornrows to study plants being sent to space at NASA.
