In the 8th grade MacNolia Cox,
As a speller this girl was the tops,
She went to DC,
For the Scripps Spelling Bee, 
But lost 'cause the judges were ops.

Paul Tazewell just made Oscars history! 🏆 As the first Black man to win Best Costume Design, his stunning work in Wicked has set a new standard. Representation matters, and his artistry is shaping the future of film. Huge congratulations! 👏🏿

Jeffery and I are so excited that KIN is the One Maryland One Book selection. We never imagined that our ancestors’ voices, muted for so centuries, would be amplified this way. Praise God!
