What Kehinde Doing?

I facilitated a couple of diversity workshops yesterday (8th grade students). While I typically work with young girls, the groups were predominately male (one group was all male). One of the young men made this for me. I can’t really describe all of the emotions I experienced in just a few hours. Pride. Sadness. Promise. Anger. Love. Frustration. Delight. I can better articulate the need for more as it relates to young men of color. More of everything we have to offer. In the same way that this young man was willing to offer his talent to me, we have to be willing to do that and so much more for them. How are you using your talent?

Y’all know I cut every ribbon, tie every bow, put every box together, pack and inspect every product and ship everything myself. And while I can’t wait until the day when the business outgrows my ability to do so, I appreciate the love y’all show for @blackgirlblackbox . We’re back to 2-3 day processing times next week and thank y’all so much for respecting the break I needed to take while processing leaving that toxic 9-5. Of course you still got time to get you a Lorde’s Prayer Box, Fire mug or F*ck That Job mug!
