In a world where everything’s feels so heavy, I want I want to focus on fun and love this Black History Month.
Here are my favorite Black girl icons.
Rihanna
She is such a bad b*tch who also happens to be smart, pretty talented and a champion of diverse beauty. Oh, she’s also a mom, too! Come on…
Serena Williams
It’s been said so many times that it’s borderline cliche but for good reason. She’s a sports girl who owned her identity and dominated so no one could question her choices. It’s queen energy ??
Oprah Winfrey
Talk about paving the way and showing them how it’s done. Oprah demonstrated that when Black women lead, people succeed. She is the ultimate influencer!!!
Janet Jackson
This one’s for my four-year old self. To see someone so cool who could dance like she did made me feel so powerful
And of course...
My Mom
At Let's Write Your Future, we believe in the transformative power of red lipstick and that is all thanks to this glam queen my mom.
Who would you add to the list?
