As an American of Cape Verdean descent (Western Africa) and first person of color to represent the 50th District, I was honored to carry joint legislation to designate the month of September as Virginia African Diaspora Heritage Month.

We’re excited to come together to serve, educate, and celebrate across our communities on Sunday, September 25th. Come join us: Virginia African Diaspora Committee along with additional members of the legislative team I was proud to work with: Senator Jennifer McClellan and Delegate Glenn Davis#ItTakesAVillage
