The World's favorite Bad Gal was nominated and honored, again for another phenomenal award. Rihanna is not only passionate about being a fashion icon and a musician, she is a philanthropic visionary and humanitarian. Yesterday, on Monday May 22, 2017, Rihanna was honored at the Parsons School of Design benefit for philanthropy and contributions to fashion. In Rihanna's speech, she expressed the importance of investing in young millennials by stating "We often tear down our youth, when we should be building them up. At the end of the day the future is in their hands."

Rihanna is absolutely correct! I agree that today's youth and young people, do not receive enough recognition for the hard work they put forth, in things they are passionate about. If you have the ambition and credentials for a new job opportunity or a promotion, you should not be snubbed out of it because of age. There are so many young people that are just as talented as their older counterparts. Rihanna speaks rawness and truth in any speech she delivers, specifically targeted to the younger generation. Rihanna frequently references her Caribbean upbringing, and growing up in Barbados, shaping her into becoming the woman she is today! #GIRLBOSS.
