LaBelle Martin Luther King Day March

Antonia Williams singing Lift Every Voice and Sing The Black National Anthem.
“Lift every voice and sing, till earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of liberty;
Let our rejoicing rise, high as the listening skies,
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of faith that the dark past has taught us,
Sing a song full of hope that the present has brought us;
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun,
Let us march on till victory won.”

2021 Black Heritage Young Princess Journey Douglas, and 2021 Black Heritage Miss Princess Izzaria Ray, performed a beautiful dance during the 2022 LaBelle MLK Day March event. These intelligent, beautiful, and talented girls captivated and inspired their audience with their grace and confidence. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for these young dreamers.
