We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated." - Maya Angelou (1928-2014), an award-winning author, poet, and civil rights activist whose memoir "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" became a groundbreaking work of literature. Life will present us with setbacks and disappointments – this is a universal truth that everyone experiences. The key difference lies in how we respond to these moments. Each setback can be viewed as a learning opportunity, a chance to grow stronger and wiser. When you face a challenge, remember that it's not the failure that defines you, but your willingness to stand up, learn from the experience, and try again.

Maya Angelou
From our earliest days, Black history has always been American history – and Black folks have profoundly shaped our American culture through music, art, literature, sports, and beyond. One month a year is not sufficient to celebrate the power of the movements and the people who have fought for the rights we enjoy today. That’s something that we have to do each and every day, as we strive to live up to their example and make sure our children and grandchildren remember their stories. - Barack Obama https://x.com/BarackObama/status/1885712803534700566/video/1
