Leaving The Sunken Place AKA The State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantation

I want to thank each and every one of you who have watched or read any of my three-part series on "Being Black in Rhode Island"! I am even giving thanks to those who became furious at me for speaking my truth about MY experience. My journey here is finally coming to an end and I am thankful for all the amazing people I have met, positive energy, business, and speaking opportunities and listening ear to my story.

I also want to acknowledge everyone who reached out to me via email and social media about relocating to Rhode Island, visiting Rhode Island, or sharing your own experiences. I give thanks to you because you had the courage to ask me your heartfelt questions. During my exchange, I hope I gave you subjective and objective advice. I hope your journey to Rhode Island is an intentional and positive journey.
