Ah, The Black Woman - National Women's History Month Uplift

In honor of #WomensHistoryMonth, Converge Media's Chief Storyteller Winfield Ezell Jr. offers this uplift to the countless amazing Black women who have graced this platform over the years including our very own Queens of Converge: Trae Holiday, Julia Jessie, Besa Gordon, and Takiyah Ward. We thank you.

"Ah, the Black woman. A majestic being, sculpted by the hands of time and resilience. Her laughter echoes like wind chimes in a summer breeze, a melody that soothes the soul and ignites the spirit. Her eyes hold galaxies of wisdom, reflecting the stories of her ancestors and the dreams of generations yet to come. She is the earth beneath our feet, solid, unwavering, the bedrock upon which we build our hopes and aspirations.

She carries the weight of the world on her shoulders, yet she dances with grace and power. She nurtures us, protects us, and guides us with an unwavering love that is both fierce and gentle. Her strength is a beacon in the darkest night, a lighthouse guiding us safely to shore. She is the architect of our communities, the weaver of our traditions, the keeper of our sacred stories.

We honor her, we uplift her, we cherish her. For she is not just a woman, she is a force of nature, a divine spark, the very soul of our existence. And as we move forward into a brighter tomorrow, we do so with her spirit soaring high above us, a reminder of all that we are, and all that we can be." - Winfield Ezell Jr.
