Celebrating #WomensHistoryMonth With Surge Institute

In celebration of #WomenHistoryMonth, I engaged in a woman-themed Q&A with some of the amazing women I’m proud to call my colleagues at #SurgeInstitute.

Here we go…

“…revolutionary spirit” -Noemi Cortes
“…heart” -Aeriell Robinson
“…self-love” -Hazel Gutierrez
“simply being” -Tamara Prather

& in 5 words or less describe what it means to be a woman of color:

“Resiliency. Rootedness. Love. Community. Beauty. Will free us all. (I know this is more than 5 words!)” — Tamara Prather
“Intentional life force.” — Hazel Gutierrez
“Black Girl Magic” — Aeriell Robinson
“Power… grace… life… joy… triumph” — Noemi Cortes

So much love for our mothers! And it was so heartwarming that I wanted to end this piece with a shout-out to my mom…
