A MESSAGE OF THANKSGIVING
In this season of Thanksgiving let us embrace the words of renowned poet Maya Angelou-
“Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayer. And let faith be the bridge you build to overcome evil and welcome good.”
Thanksgiving is a time when we gather around the table with family, friends, and loved ones to celebrate our blessings of the past year. It is our time to put aside our differences, give thanks for our blessings and express our gratitude.
As we are move into the last weeks of 2023, we have witnessed and experienced some of the most challenging times that many of us have ever seen. Amid these times, we have been brought closer together not because of our similarities but because of our differences.
During our 2019 Symposium, Our WA President Gwainevere Catchings Hess said, “there is no power greater than a communitv that knows what it cares about.” We are thankful for our board members, our national collaborating organizations, and our supporters as we continue to work to strengthen our efforts combatting issues affecting Black women worldwide. What we know for sure is that when our issues are resolved, those same issues are resolved for others.
Voters Rights. Reproductive Rights. Immigration Rights. Economic Rights. Religious Rights. Our diversity of culture should provide each of us the opportunity to live our lives how we choose.
We embrace – UNESCO’s 1995 Declaration of Principles on Tolerance
“Tolerance is respect, acceptance and appreciation of the rich diversity of our world’s cultures, our forms of expression and ways of being human.”
The Black Women’s Agenda, Inc. wishes you a Thanksgiving filled with gratitude, peace, and the spirit of togetherness. May this day remind us to embrace tolerance and appreciate the unique perspectives that make us the strong community that we are.

Living Your Best Life At Every Age
Living your best life – it is the mantra for the 21st century. Experts tell us that living your best life is a proactive pursuit. We must be willing to take action, make choices and own our existence, but what exactly does “living your best life” mean? How do you go about it, and is it something that changes over time?
