Black Excellence Brunch

#BlackExcellence is Black men being able to CELEBRATE one another 👏🏾 On yesterday, #BlackExcellenceBrunch gathered in a space of love, authenticity and vulnerability around a table. In a world that doesn’t often give black men the space to emote freely, we are grateful to be that safe space. We tried something different with @primevideo around the release of their new film #EmergencyMovie and brought the fellas together for open and honest dialogue. The result is beautiful. Here is a snippet of #BlackJoy featuring a few of our favorites: @trellworld , @adrianholmes , @imanshumpert , @lancegross , @terrencej , @marioworldwide , @jimmyakingbola , @rj_cyler 🖤

#BlackExcellence is ASHANTI 🙌🏽✨ The best way to round out #EssenceFest weekend in New Orleans is with a #BlackExcellenceBrunch and you KNOW we brought the vibes and our Icon Award recipient, @Ashanti brought nothing but GOOD VIBES ⚜️💛

Kelly made me cry 🥹 So we honored @kellyrowland this past Sunday @blackexcellencebrunch and after we were done with the fireside chat, the plan was to toast to her in the spirit of honoring her at a brunch. Well, she turned the toast moment on me and I was undone. There is so much work that goes into planning these events and the Virgo in me literally won’t let me rest trying to make sure that every detail is perfect so as you can imagine, sometimes it’s overwhelming. For Kelly to use a moment that was her moment to celebrate me really warmed my heart on a level that I am still trying to wrap my mind around. It was the first time that anyone had ever done that so I was honestly speechless (as you can see from the video 😂) but MAN, It just shows you what type of person this beautiful woman is on the inside. When you have a glow that is internal, of course you shine externally ✨ Kelly, thank you for seeing me and for lighting that room up like only you can. Come back ANYtime— love you 🫶🏾 @yvettenoelschure you are my hero. You always make magic happen! 🙏🏾🫶🏾

I was doing an interview yesterday and was reminded of this moment and then today I was sitting with a friend who re-reminded me of how important these moments are. How important it is to have people SEE you, affirm you and how equally it is to see and affirm yourself. I was texting my sister just now, sharing some good news and she was saying how happy she was that I moved to LA. What a lot of people don’t know about are the things that transpired before the move. The move wasn’t just physical, It was spiritual and one of my biggest prayers was for God to surround me with people that were going to lift me up and not tear me down. I had become use to people hurting, misusing me and taking advantage of me—moving to LA marked the end of that chapter and the beginning of people really seeing me and helping me to see myself. Thank you @thedaniellebrooks and @tarajiphenson for seeing me and gifting me this beautiful moment and thank you God for continuing to order my steps. From SC to the world giving love and light! I am filled with love and gratitude today 💜 🫶🏾 @raquelmartinphd @senorcarlitos @jotakaeaddy @thebrandblazer @fantasia @thecolorpurple @blackexcellencebrunch 🎥: @crv_productions — #motivation #inspirational #thecolorpurple #excellence #faith #God #sunday #motivational #gratitude #southcarolina

#BlackExcellence is creating spaces of uninhibited Black Joy! Bringing our latest @blackexcellencebrunch to life with @hulu to celebrate the cultural phenomenon that was #FreakNik was so much fun. More than the fellowship, we are excited that we got to inform attendees about the origin of Freak Nik. Did you know that the “Freak” in the name is actually a reference from a #Chic song, “Le Freak” ?! So much to learn and discover. We are proud of the founders of #Freaknik for creating what was a much needed space, a space of community & joy. The documentary is streaming now on @hulu . Check It out!
