We have a very candid and honest chat with Rosalyn Damiana Lake Montero, an educator in the DC area who was raised to celebrate her Blackness and love the skin she's in. She talks about the differences between being raised in the Dominican Republic and the states. She shares her struggles within her own community with how she identifies. She talks about her work with the youth and her passion for being an educator. She shares her long battle with Covid as a Black woman and how vulnerable she had to be. A long battle with Covid led her to a spiritual awakening. She also gives wonderful tips on self-care.
We'd love to hear from you!
