Such a beautiful and relatable read! As my cousin Kiana shared, sometimes we don’t realize how much we’re carrying because it has become our normal. I’m so grateful for family, community, little getaways, group chats, laughter, and even the simplest memes that brighten our days. Having a safe space to laugh, cry, and simply be ourselves is truly a blessing.

An Ongoing Legacy
I vividly remember Dr Rolark’s passion while I studied journalism at Howard University some 50 years ago. And I am proud that my classmate, his daughter, kept that flame alive!
