“I am not African because I was born in Africa, but because Africa was born in me.” - Kwame Nkrumah

That truth hit differently the moment my hands wrapped around the flame.

I didn’t just hold the flame. I held the weight of every little girl who was told she couldn’t, every young woman who dared to dream anyway, and every African child who will one day stand exactly where I stood - and feel the fire of the motherland in their hearts.

This flame isn’t just a symbol. It’s a promise. That the Youth Olympic Games are coming to Africa for the first time - not as a spectator, but as the host. Not as a footnote, but as the headline.

This one is for the Girls. For the Linguéres. For Africa. For us. 🔥🇸🇳

Thank you Senegal for helping to make the 1st Annual Juneteenth Cookout a celebration to remember! The diaspora showed up & showed out. We danced, we laughed, we ate and we celebrated freedom. We’re also reminded that we must continue the fight for our complete liberation as an African diaspora ✊🏾
