IN THE NEWS!! Me!
I’m am so excited to share that I was honored at City Hall on Tuesday, February 4, 2020 as a part of Black History Month by the office of LA City Councilman President Emeritus Herb Wesson. This honor is particular sweet because President Emeritus Wesson is the first an only African American to be selected the president of the Los Angeles City Council – and to get this during Black History Month, means everything to a conscious sister like me! And I gave an unapologetically Black, Black, Blackity, Black speech! Lol
I was honored for my work in arts and entertainment. As a celebrity publicist, my job is to make people famous and keep people famous. But the most rewarding work of all is when I can bring my talents to the Black community, and work on projects that empower and uplift our people — such as the Leimert Park Village Book Fair and the Pan African Film Festival. I do this for the culture!
I’m so thankful to my friends and family from North Carolina who could attend this monumental career highlight for me. Their presence meant everything to me. It was a beautiful day for me!
The City of Los Angeles honored iconic comic legends like Luenell, Eddie Griffin; Marsha Warfield; Miss Laura Hayes – the Original Queen of Comedy; and Emmy-winning comedienne and actress Tiffany Haddish as part of their Stand UP: The Art and Politics of Comedy for Black History Month. There’s an exhibit of their work in the City Hall Bridge Gallery on the third floor of City Hall. The exhibit will be on display through March 9, 2020.
Along with Los Angeles City Council President Emeritus Herb J. Wesson, Jr. (District 10), special thanks to Councilmen Curren Price (District 9), and Marqueece Harris-Dawson (District 8) for their constant support. They have been instrumental in my work in the Black community.
