For my Parents, Aunts and Uncles that had to fight and wait we'll into their adult years before they were allowed...! For my Children, to stress the importance of standing up for what you believe in! For my Grandchid, to (hopefully) make his life better and his goals more attainable! For my fellow advocates to obtain more equity in our health care system. For all those who sacrificed and died so I could... I Voted!!! (early)

Raymond Epps liked thisThis part 👉🏾 “No longer do we have to subscribe to an inauthentic look, long suffering hair processes on a daily basis, not to mention a lot of $$$ and time just to make others feel comfortable.” Although I stopped getting my hair permed in college, I was still getting silk presses and damaging my hair. It is only in the last few years, that I have fully embraced my natural hair including learning how to define my natural curl pattern. A lot of my headshots were with my hair straightened. I decided to take a new one that shows my curls defined which most people had never seen. This headshot is my current LinkedIn photo, but some people would use old photos of me even when they requested my headshot. That says a lot about which hair style some people think is professionally acceptable. Black women, let’s love our hair ❤️ It took time for me to fully love my hair, but I’m so glad I do now.Raymond Epps liked thisIt’s #NationalCROWNDay commemorating inaugural signing of U.S. #CrownAct in 2019 to "Create a Respectful & Open World for Natural Hair." It passed seven months too late for me when news mgmt told me to inform them and ask for permission next time I decided to make a hair change and wear my #naturalhair on air instead of the wig after #breastcancertreatments. Imagine hearing this from a news director (also representing the GM’s concerns and questioning) after I walk off the set after my 5pm broadcast, and then have to shake it off and prepare my mind to anchor the 6pm. #Unconscionable #Biased #Discrimination My tears were flowing inside. The #trauma of that moment will forever live with me, but I’m turning that pain into a purpose for the benefit of humanity. I’m thankful #blackwomen are now legally protected from biased opinions of others as to what is acceptable! No longer do we have to subscribe to an inauthentic look, long suffering hair processes on a daily basis, not to mention a lot of $$$ and time, and explaining why my #blackhair may look differently every day, just to make others feel comfortable. #BeYou #FloNaturals #NaturalGirls #Versatility #IWearTheCrown #MyHairMyChoice #Unbossed

This Friday, May 14th, @ganggangculture is thrilled to partner with @pacerssportsent for Indy’s Day of Healing and Mental Health. We are encouraging our city to take a break. To pause. In whatever way that is meaningful for you. Thank you to employers that are giving options to their team members. Thank you to @thegirlnamedcharlie @andreamonique @heremindsindy for leveraging culture to curate free, self-care experiences at Bankers Life Fieldhouse and to @createconnectcollab and @patternmagazine for mindful activation stations. Thank you to the @cityofindianapolis for declaring May 14 Indy’s Day of Healing. On Friday, we put our mental health first. Link below to register for one of 3 mindfulness sessions. https://lnkd.in/eyuzsq8 #IndyDayofHealing #GANGGANG #pause #selfcare

Raymond Epps liked thisRaymond Epps liked thisI’ve imagined this day for years! Words can’t even begin to describe how I feel about finally having a community center in my hometown where we can inspire others and make a difference. It just means the world to me. Without the love and support from everyone over the years, Y&E would not be where it’s at today. I want everyone, who’s helped in any kind of way since day one of Young and Established, to know that I truly appreciate you. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. We can only go up from here! #youngandestablished
