Late Post: Delux Magazine Power 100 Event

I was blessed on the evening of November 8, 2015 when I attended Delux Magazine's Power 100 event, which was held at Lumiere Live in downtown St. Louis. The event was held to honor 100 local African American movers, shakers, makers, politicians, owners, and every thing in between who have been recognized for their service and commitment to St. Louis.

Some of the recipients included Channel 4 News Anchor Andre Hepkins, artist C'babi Bayoc, radio personalities Tammi Holland and Staci Static, and St. Louis City Treasurer Tishaura O. Jones, among many, many others!


It was beautiful, inspiring, and encouraging to be surrounded by so many brilliant and talented people all in one room. I also had the priveledge to interview one of the "Distinguished Leaders", Vanessa Foster-Cooksey for the cover story of the current issue of Delux Magazine.



In that this was the first -time that the event was held, I'm sure that future Power 100 events will be known as one of the most prestigious and highly-anticipated annual events of the year in St. Louis.

Delux Magazine is currently taking nominations for 30 individuals under the age of 30, who will be recognized and known as the "Emerging 30." Keep up the great work Delux Magazine and its fearless and passionate leader, Keith Griffin III! Congratulations to all the recipients!
