A fierce educator.

A kindred spirit.

A treasure and a blessing.

That’s what you are.

Through my pain and devastation, I’ve been able to heal through my writing. Through my expressive advocacy and through my bold activism. You pushed me beyond my limits and made me fall in love with the art of English Literature.

I don’t take your existence lightly because had it not been for you, a large part of me would not have reached its purpose and be able to walk in my divine calling.

It was a true pleasure being a student of yours, and now a privilege to call you my friend. I hope this chapter is filled with all the love, all the warmth, all the compassion, and all the encouragement you have so freely given to others.

Thank you for existing.

Cheers! 👑💐♥️🫶🏼🥳🎉🎊🎂👠📖✒️

Mesh bags filled with menstrual hygiene products to inspire schools / businesses to begin offering free menstrual products.

Not having adequate access to menstrual hygiene products is far too common in the United States and across the globe . A national average survey (BMCWomen’s Health) shows that 1 in 4 students miss school because they don’t have the proper necessities or access to menstrual hygiene products. Which translates to “Period Poverty”. In every sense of responsibility, Period Poverty is a public health crisis.

I propose a law or ordinance regulating the distribution of menstrual hygiene products in all Detroit Public Schools to help curb the effort of Period Poverty. This will help to ensure that the students matriculating through the Detroit Public School system have access to necessary menstrual care products and to ensure that they have access to proper menstrual health education as well.

My only hope is that other cities, states, and jurisdictions join the effort! But until such law is put in place, I’ve created Pink Relief Bags! 🩷

Pink Relief Bags are mesh bags filled with menstrual hygiene products to fight the Period Poverty battle! Again, my hope is to inspire ALL school to begin offering free menstrual products to their students. There will also be a kicker card with a special QR Code in the bags that students will be able to scan and access online health information about their menstrual cycles.

I’ve chosen none other than my alma mater, the illustrious Lewis Cass Technical High School, as my first location!
