What a great way to start women's month ! Check out my feature in @hellobeautiful ! Thank you for highlighting my story ❤️🙏make up by @stephaniepinckbeauty “As a Haitian immigrant and dreamer, I carry more than just my own aspirations and stories, and it’s become clear to me that it’s my spiritual responsibility to help bring them to reality. It can be challenging to balance the art of surviving, providing, hustling, and overcoming, and at times, even breathing can feel difficult. But in the midst of grieving, healing, recreating, and resurrecting myself, I am learning to sit with my inner voice and release my stories to the world, bringing hope, healing, and joy,” she continued.

I wrote I Am a Phenomenal Black Boy in 2020, right at the beginning of the pandemic.

It was clear that the world was changing and unfortunately, many things have also remained the same. Protests were happening all around the world- People wanted real change! freedom versus captivity(physical, mental, spiritual). So many lives were lost and many of us were reminded to choose light. The pandemic showed workers of this world the importance of family- people were quitting their jobs, asking for more life balance. Lies were uncovered! A veil was lifted.

The world was telling black people that they didn’t matter. I wrote “the book” so my son could never enter into any contract with the world that doesn’t benefit him, that doesn’t see him, value him. The book is an agreement for my son to make with himself- the book is my gift to all black boys.

Dear black boys!

You are majestic!

Dear black boys, embrace your brilliance

Dear black boys, you are kind

Dear black boys, joy is your birthright

Dear black boys, you are Limye!

Dear Limye, you are phenomenal!

You can get the book here ! Thanks in advance for your support ❤️
