This past weekend the eldest member of my family, Grandma, celebrated her 80th birthday. It was a genuine celebration, the food was prepared by my younger brother Chef Anwar. We laughed sang, and had a good time reflecting on “Nana’s” life. Accolades came when I stepped to the microphone to sing an old-time classic from the movie The Color Purple titled “Sista”
this dedication brought tears to my grandmothers eyes, at that point it was reconfirmed that we are really, truly connected.
