With summer here, we are grateful for the heat, flies and spiders. We welcome everything this summer has in store for us. Things appear in limbo, but we are making progress, taking little steps as we walk through open doors.
Tomorrow can be better than today, so let us create things that last forever.
In this edition, we have the two women who want to be the Premier of Alberta: Danielle Smith and Rachel Notley. We also have the Chairman, Board of Directors of Ribbon Rouge Adaku Uju and their multi-award-winning Executive Director, Funke Olokude, as we join their efforts to increase awareness around HIV amongst the BIPOC population.
We remain grateful to the Edmonton Community Foundation for funding the stories of Black businesswomen on 118 Street. This is the final of the two-part series, which shares the untold stories of Hijabi Muslim women who trade or do business on 118 Street.
As always, the errors are all mine.
