Letter from the Publishers

Welcome to the Mother of All Editions

Happy Mother’s Day!

This special issue pays tribute to our wonderful Queen Mothers. We are excited to have Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles Lawson, on the cover as she debuts her acting career in “Wrath: A Seven Deadly Sins Story,” alongside former Destiny’s Child member Michelle Williams on A&E’s Lifetime Channel. Hoping Knowles-Lawson’s non-stop career moves inspire other mothers to never stop pursuing their dreams — even when your children go on to live their best lives.

We thank the community who participated in our Community Speaks section to share how their mothers used loving discipline that put them on the positive pathways to live successful lives. The celebration continues with a pictorial tribute featuring community mothers who are always giving their best.

The Las Vegas Black Image executive publishing team never fails with optimal graphic design, editing, distribution and printing. We thank them all.

To our writers: we appreciate you and continue to rise because of your insightful, engaging, educational and inspirational monthly contributions.

Remember to email us at cdalasvegas@gmail.com if you have any interesting stories you want to see in Las Vegas Black Image.

Thank you again to all our loyal readers, advertisers and supporters who have made it possible for Las Vegas Black Image Magazine to continue publishing now for 15 years.
