OK. Seriously, what a thrill to have Sonia Jhas, soniajhas kick-off my show “A Moment With Meenakshi” on Rukus Avenue Radio, rukusavenueradio premiering this Monday, June 8th at 3 PM EST.
.
As much as I am on cloud nine, I’m also a bag of mixed emotions. My heart is heavy. And it aches. This truly isn’t about me. And, I know I will never understand but I am committed to doing more, learning/unlearning, and more so supporting the black community where I can.
.
I’ve felt love and appreciation from all of you, and I hope that continues as I start this new radio journey. BUT I also want to see this love and kindness spread to our black community members. Collectively, we need to SHOW UP. It’s been in my heart to do something but I want to hold others accountable as well to DO MORE (financially or not). I will be donating to The Black Health Alliance of Canada, blackhealthcan a community led-registered charity working to improve the health and well-being of Black communities in Canada. I acknowledge this is a small gesture on my end but I truly wanted to do something and I’m hoping this action will encourage all of you to help in whatever capacity you can. And if you’re comfortable, I’d love to hear what you’re doing.
.
Also, remember that this isn’t just a wave. This is the time for REAL change. Don’t forget that. We all have a responsibility to make changes in our homes and have uncomfortable conversations. I’m doing this daily with my kids and family. Do.the.same. Keep at it — we have an obligation to make this world a better place, for our future generation; we can do it.
