Remembering the Victims of American Airlines Flight 5342 The recent collision between an American Airlines Jet carrying 60 passengers and four crew members collided with the Army Black Hawk helicopter as it prepared to land at Reagan Washington National Airport has left a deep wound in our hearts. The loss of so many lives is a profound tragedy, and we at EmpowHERment, Inc. extend our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of all those affected. This tragedy hits close to home, as we've learned that some of the flight crew members were based in Charlotte. We stand in solidarity with our community and the nation in mourning this devastating loss. #Flight5342 #Community https://lnkd.in/eymaBWya

End of an Era: American Girl Store at SouthPark Mall to Close After years of bringing joy to children and families in Charlotte, the American Girl store at SouthPark Mall will be closing its doors later this year. Known for creating special moments and fostering creativity, this store was a staple for many Charlotte families. While the closure is bittersweet, it’s a reflection of the broader challenges faced by retail in the post-pandemic landscape. It’s also a reminder of how the retail world must continue evolving to keep pace with changing consumer behavior. Let’s take this moment to reflect on the impact this store has had in building memories for families and inspiring young minds. Here’s to finding new ways to support experiential retail in our communities. What are your thoughts on the changing retail landscape and the future of in-person shopping experiences?

???Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson Makes Her Broadway Debut in "& Juliet"??? From the Supreme Court bench to the Broadway stage, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson continues to inspire and break boundaries. Over the weekend, she fulfilled a lifelong dream by performing a one-night-only, walk-on role in the musical comedy?"& Juliet", which reimagines what would happen if Juliet’s story didn’t end with Romeo. Justice Jackson has already made history as the first Black woman to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, but her Broadway debut serves as another reminder of her incredible story. Growing up as a theater kid in Miami, Jackson nurtured her love for drama and public speaking—a journey that ultimately led to her serving on the highest court in the nation. In her memoir?"Lovely One", Justice Jackson reflects on how important it is to show that justices are human too, with dreams, passions, and personal stories. As she said,?"This moment reinforces for me that anything is possible." Justice Jackson's journey is a powerful example of resilience, representation, and pursuing your passions—wherever they may lead you. Bravo to Justice Jackson for continuing to show us that barriers are meant to be broken! ??? #KetanjiBrownJackson #Inspiration #RepresentationMatters #Leadership
