Happy June

June marks the first official month of summer and presents an opportunity to reset and start fresh. Effective communication is key in restoring ourselves and reconnecting with our culture and heritage. This month, we celebrate Juneteenth, a holiday that commemorates the emancipation of African American enslaved people in the United States. It's a time to remember our ancestors' struggle for freedom and reflect on what true liberation means for us in this day and age. June also serves as Black Music Month, where we celebrate the contributions of black musicians to the art form. Caribbean Heritage Month is another opportunity for us to reconnect with our roots and celebrate the rich culture of the Caribbean community. Through these celebrations, we can restore ourselves and tap into the strength and resilience that our culture and heritage give us.Happy June!

Originally hailing from Trinidad and Tobago and raised in Brooklyn, NY cultural identity, heritage, ethnicity and acculturation have been the epicenter of my existence. Exposed to diversity of the vibrant, vivacious Caribbean community in Flatbush, Brooklyn it inspired me with writing, research and everything but defines me as a West Indian.

The root of everything that is essentially me are held within the history and heritage that I am deeply proud of making me -ME - CHIC HERITAGE CULTURE SOUL
