About

Our cover story, penned by managing editor Laurence Washington, tells how and why Gerie Grimes was selected by the Colorado Women’s Hall of Fame as a 2018 Inductee. Melovy Melvin remembers Rachel B. Noel as the community prepares for the Rachel B. Noel 2018 Distinguished Visiting Professorship Dr. Phillip S. Hart comes to Denver. And new contributor, Joella Bauman shares the plans for the 66th Women’s Day celebration at New Hope Baptist Church and who are making them. Other stories look at a local actress who values being a role model more than a role; an attorney who reflects on three women that impacted his life; a legendary performer and civil rights activist who is honored on the newest addition to the Black Heritage Stamp Series; and a mother who has a special message for her beautiful Black daughters. So, from the words of Oprah Winfrey, take that step and create your story of history. Enjoy…
