@essencefest festival was a whole VIBE! The conversations, the people, the parties, the concerts, the long nights and early mornings, seeing old friends and making new connections - it truly lived up to its theme “It’s the Black Joy for Me!” Special thank you to @the.coloredgirl & @amazon for curating an intimate discussion on Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and for inviting me to particpate. You made my first #Essence one to remember - I’ll certainly be back!
