It has been a journey and they were with me the entire way. LOVE and GRATITUDE to Dianne McIyntre, Trazana Beverley,Ā Sharrata Hunt, Aku Kadogo, Janet League, Paula Moss, Michele Shay, and Carol Maillard!!!

Caption : Congratulations to the class of 2023!!! A very special shout out to the students of @uncsa and @drewuniversity . I had the pleasure of being the commencement speaker for both institutions. I am also extremely honored to receive Honorary Doctorates from both schools! An Honorary Degree of Doctor of Fine Arts from UNCSA and an Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters from Drew University. THANK YOU to UNCSA (my Alma Mater- full circle!!) and Drew University for the love and support youāve given me over the past 2 weekends!!! Special thanks to Chancellor Brian Cole, Endalyn Taylor (Dean of Dance), Ralph Womble, Provost Patrick Sims, Lissy Garrison of UNCSA, and President Thomas Schwarz, Vice President for University Advancement,Ā Ā Bret Silver, Director and Assistant Professor of Dance in the Theatre and Dance Department, @kimani0402 of Drew University. It was a special treat to share these experiences with my mom and dadš¤ To support what I wanted to share and to make this experience a community engagement with the students, I reached out to the classes and asked them to share questions about navigating life after graduation. I wanted my speeches to be guided by them, to help them maybe overcome their fears, and live out their hopes and dreams. Iāve always been afraid to speak in public because my voice sounded different from everyone elseās. I would get teased and mimicked when I was younger. Because of that, public speaking has always been very scary. So THANK YOU to both institutions for giving me an opportunity to push through the fear and to grow! To the class of 2023, KEEP MOVING FORWARD AND BE BRAVE!!!!! Shout out to @domorisseau and @salamishah who received Honorary Doctorates from the University of Michigan and Moore College of Art & Design respectively. And @herenowdance who graduated from NYU Silver School of Social Work. MSW. Styled by @jakesokoloff Photos by UNCSA and Drew UniversityLikes : 2426

Caption : Congratulations to the class of 2023!!! A very special shout out to the students of @uncsa and @drewuniversity . I had the pleasure of being the commencement speaker for both institutions. I am also extremely honored to receive Honorary Doctorates from both schools! An Honorary Degree of Doctor of Fine Arts from UNCSA and an Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters from Drew University. THANK YOU to UNCSA (my Alma Mater- full circle!!) and Drew University for the love and support youāve given me over the past 2 weekends!!! Special thanks to Chancellor Brian Cole, Endalyn Taylor (Dean of Dance), Ralph Womble, Provost Patrick Sims, Lissy Garrison of UNCSA, and President Thomas Schwarz, Vice President for University Advancement,Ā Ā Bret Silver, Director and Assistant Professor of Dance in the Theatre and Dance Department, @kimani0402 of Drew University. It was a special treat to share these experiences with my mom and dadš¤ To support what I wanted to share and to make this experience a community engagement with the students, I reached out to the classes and asked them to share questions about navigating life after graduation. I wanted my speeches to be guided by them, to help them maybe overcome their fears, and live out their hopes and dreams. Iāve always been afraid to speak in public because my voice sounded different from everyone elseās. I would get teased and mimicked when I was younger. Because of that, public speaking has always been very scary. So THANK YOU to both institutions for giving me an opportunity to push through the fear and to grow! To the class of 2023, KEEP MOVING FORWARD AND BE BRAVE!!!!! Shout out to @domorisseau and @salamishah who received Honorary Doctorates from the University of Michigan and Moore College of Art & Design respectively. And @herenowdance who graduated from NYU Silver School of Social Work. MSW. Styled by @jakesokoloff Photos by UNCSA and Drew UniversityLikes : 2426

Caption : HAPPY OPENING to the cast, creative team, and production crew of Hippest Trip- The Soul Train musical- Written by @domorisseau Directed by @kamilahf Music Supervision, Orchestrations, and Arrangements by @kennyjseymour , and Choreographed by cab āŗļø My parents remember the very first airing of Soul Train. It was the first time they had seen reflections of themselves moving and grooving in a space all their own that shined with excellence. They passed their love for the show onto me. It had a tremendous impact on my love of social dance and how it is history in motion. It has been my honor to be the choreographer for this musical, to celebrate the legacy of Soul Train, to lift up the incomparable dancers who moved with bold creativity and innovation, celebrate the African diasporic language, and to create in a space filled with both joy and rigor. Kamilah and Dominique have always been inspirations to me as Black women navigating the arts, but to be in the space of collaboration with them has truly lifted and encouraged my spirit. I thank them for their sisterhood. Shout out to my team @adesolaosakalumi and @rickeytripp . Thank you for your love, your laughter, and your care. Thank you for having my back and always lookin out. I love us. Shout out to the amazing @zanemark . I am so thankful for your love and support. Thank you @moncelldurden for being with us during the early stages. To the cast, thank you for putting ALL of yourselves in the space every time- for trusting the destination and always being so encouraging throughout the process. Your affirmations helped me so much! Special thanks to Richard Gay, Jeffrey Tick, Matt Weaver, Tony Cornelius, and Pam Brown. Thank you for the journey and inspiration. Cheers to the cast ofĀ Hippest TripĀ for keeping the legacy alive and cheers to all those souls who kept Soul Train alive for so many decades. This show is a celebration of legacy.

Caption : HAPPY OPENING to the cast, creative team, and production crew of Hippest Trip- The Soul Train musical- Written by @domorisseau Directed by @kamilahf Music Supervision, Orchestrations, and Arrangements by @kennyjseymour , and Choreographed by cab āŗļø My parents remember the very first airing of Soul Train. It was the first time they had seen reflections of themselves moving and grooving in a space all their own that shined with excellence. They passed their love for the show onto me. It had a tremendous impact on my love of social dance and how it is history in motion. It has been my honor to be the choreographer for this musical, to celebrate the legacy of Soul Train, to lift up the incomparable dancers who moved with bold creativity and innovation, celebrate the African diasporic language, and to create in a space filled with both joy and rigor. Kamilah and Dominique have always been inspirations to me as Black women navigating the arts, but to be in the space of collaboration with them has truly lifted and encouraged my spirit. I thank them for their sisterhood. Shout out to my team @adesolaosakalumi and @rickeytripp . Thank you for your love, your laughter, and your care. Thank you for having my back and always lookin out. I love us. Shout out to the amazing @zanemark . I am so thankful for your love and support. Thank you @moncelldurden for being with us during the early stages. To the cast, thank you for putting ALL of yourselves in the space every time- for trusting the destination and always being so encouraging throughout the process. Your affirmations helped me so much! Special thanks to Richard Gay, Jeffrey Tick, Matt Weaver, Tony Cornelius, and Pam Brown. Thank you for the journey and inspiration. Cheers to the cast ofĀ Hippest TripĀ for keeping the legacy alive and cheers to all those souls who kept Soul Train alive for so many decades. This show is a celebration of legacy. ITāS TIME TO GET DOWN as we lift it up!
