Baldness + Beautiful + Bold = Terry!!!

I met this Queen at a meeting one day...then I was getting in my car one day after and guess who was walking in our neighborhood...Terry! We became friends instantly! She is so interesting and creative...let's check out her story.

What career are you passionate about?

Community Outreach. I am a Volunteer Coordinator for Long Leaf Hospice. I get to create great and fun memories for our residents. I have volunteers that help me with my vision to make families comfortable through such a hard time.

What things do you have going on with your book club? Name of book club and when you started the group.

The Radikal Readers Online Children’s book is my current project which was birthed out the Covid19 Pandemic. We are a muli-cultural reading group and the focus is on love ,peace, acceptance and acts of kindness.

I also started Nubian Soul Sistah Literacy Book Club. Before this pandemic we would meet once a month to discuss the book we picked. We have shared alot of private stories and gain so much knowledge on how everyone reads and may have different perspectives on the outcomes. We have grown in numbers in the past year. Great friendships have evolved. Just great memories to go down in the books.
