God is a Black Woman: 5 Game Changers Carving Their Own Lane
Deon Egenti
My piece dedicated to my favorite people in the world: Black Women. They define beauty, creativity, intelligence, dominance, culture, media, and love. They are the standard. The very core of our melanin. They are the ones telling the world, “Catch up. We’ve been doing this.” We appreciate them just like I appreciate these five women who are doing amazing work with their platforms. I hope they inspire you just as much as they inspire me.
