Melanated March reflection.

During March I like to expand conversations about Black history beyond a single month and think about global Black thinkers and leaders.

Two figures who often come to mind are Nina Simone and Miriam Makeba. Their work challenged systems and encouraged people to rethink who holds authority, how knowledge is defined, and what leadership can look like in practice.

Those ideas still matter today. Whether in classrooms, organizations, or community spaces, leadership often begins with someone willing to question the systems around them.

Their legacy reminds us that change rarely starts with permission. It often begins with someone asking a deeper question.

What historical voices influence how you think about leadership today?

People keep asking me why I cut my locs off.

And I understand the question.

But what we don’t talk about enough is what happens to our bodies when we are carrying so much for so long.

This is where I am right now.

Melanated March.

Black history did not pause on March 1. The leadership traditions, cultural movements, and intellectual work that shaped the modern world continue long after the calendar changes.

I have been reflecting on the influence of Ella Baker and Audre Lorde. Their work pushed institutions to reconsider who defines leadership, whose knowledge is valued, and how systems maintain power.

These reflections show up often in the work I do with organizations and educators. Many people want transformation, but meaningful change usually begins when someone is willing to question the structure of the room.

Their legacy reminds me that leadership is not only about authority. It is about courage, clarity, and the willingness to challenge assumptions.

Where do you see this kind of leadership showing up in your own work?

Black History Month always brings me back to questions of formation.

Long before titles, credentials, or formal authority, leadership is shaped by what we witness and survive. I think often about Wangari Maathai, whose leadership was rooted in observation, relationship, and an understanding of what it meant to act with clarity in spaces that were not designed for ease.

That history resonates with me because much of what I know about leadership came from watching how people carried responsibility quietly, adjusted their pace, and protected what mattered most.

In what ways has your own formation shaped how you lead today?

Pressure does not create leadership.
It reveals it.

Leadership under pressure is less about control and more about clarity.

It is the ability to slow down when everything feels urgent, to listen when noise rises, and to act with intention rather than reaction.

True leadership is not measured by how calm things are, but by how grounded you remain when they are not.

Pause. Breathe. Lead with clarity.
