We started as The Kitchen Sisters in our early 20s at the end of the 70s. Now in the midst of the 2020s we're still searching for stories of voices under heard, for traditions that bind us & remind us all we have in common. Your support makes it possible. donatenow.networkforgood.org…

happy birthday to my Aunt Betty — my late grandmother Lottie’s older sister 🎁🎊🎁
Betty Reid Soskin was the oldest ranger in the National Park Service until she retired 2 years ago at age 100.
Today, she turns 103 years young.
As a U.S. park ranger, she cemented the Black wartime experience into history @RosieRiveterNPS.
Happy birthday, Betty!
