Words are power. They can create fear or fearlessness, depending on who utters them. This month's issues will feature seven black women whose words define Black History Month. Their stories are local and run the gamut of successes in business, education, politics and medicine. Let's listen to them, as we recognize and celebrate our beautiful tapestry of diversity.
In this issue, I am featuring Priscilla Taylor, Former Mayor of Palm Beach County and State Representative; Marcia Andrews, Member, Palm Beach County School Board; and Sophia A. Nelson, Entrepreneur.
I asked each of these distinguished women a series of questions to share and celebrate Black History month. It is my hope their stories motivate our youngest residents to achieve great things in their lives as well as guide them to a similar path in their future.
• What education, training program or certifications have you received?
• Who was your inspiration growing up?
• If you could interview any historical person, past or present, who would that be?
• Tell us one thing that you would change about our community.
• What would you tell your younger self knowing what you now know?
