The month of January was very eventful. And the first week of the new year was one for the records. That being said, I am thankful for a new month and hoping that it starting on a Monday is symbolic.

I am working to get back to a space of inspiration and as I assess my world I can see I have lots to keep me inspired.

Today’s inspiration, among a handful, is Black History Month. I have learned a lot about black history. Unfortunately, I’ve learned more in the past 3 years than I have my whole life. Why is that? Why don’t schools do a better job at educating our kids on black history? For me, this book was a wake up call. It lead me on a path of discovery that is heartbreaking yet enlightening and inspiring, I am thankful and better because of it.

If you’re asking yourself why you should read it or why do we have a Black History Month then you’re one of the many Americans who should read it. And if you decide to forge ahead then come back and let me know what you think.

Have a wonderful February ❤
