In her work in being a culture keeper, to gather, protect, decolonize and make available in one space the History and Culture of the Black North Carolinians, she found that one of her stories was in need to speak out and be heard.

Being asked to participate in this Our State Magazine article, and in the Toy Exhibit being created by the NC Museum of History took her by surprise, as she is focused on making known other Black people's stories.
She is honored to have one of her stories added to the list of those that are usually not heard outside of a small setting or group.

Katie Edwards, the curator of popular culture at the North Carolina Museum of History was in charge of curating the Toy Exhibit.

I Remember Our History® is pleased that this exhibit helps the NC Museum of History to move in the direction of including all cultures and people of NC in their telling of North Carolina's history in their voices.
