RIP ❤️ Professor Kiah Duggins was among those lost in the mid-air plane collision at Reagan National Airport. Professor Duggins was set to begin a new chapter as a professor at Howard University School of Law this fall. May her memory be a blessing.

Thank you so much Flo!
Congrats to friend @cherissmay for her West Point graduation photo on the front page of Sunday’s @nytimes. When our family lived at West Point, the graduates were men & the media photos were always of hats in the air. This image is change.

I’m looking to hire 3 visual artists in the Baltimore-Washington area who specialize in murals. They must be available next week for a project on the @HowardCC campus. Tag any great artists so I can reach out to them. Thank you!
