## Caption

Putting this picture on my mirror because Fantasia looks STUNNING in the cover shoot for the November/December Issue of #ESSENCE, shot by @mickalenethomas! 

Disclaimer: We recognize Black creatives are still fighting for their respect and equity; this fight has been displayed through this year’s labor strikes. It is important for us to let our readers know that ESSENCE conducted these interviews and photo shoot for our cover story in May 2023.
