You have our gratitude
You — the loyal reader — have our never-ending thanks for picking up your free edition of Las Vegas Black Image Magazine each month.
Our cover says it all: the legendary Smokey Robinson (along with Babyface), is being celebrated by our community at the Las Vegas Ruvo Brain Health Center.
During these trying times, many of our friends, family members, and neighbors are coping with mental health challenges. It is not to be stigmatized, so we are happy that Linda Abrams has opened Thrive Behavioral Health and Trauma Center, as she explains how trauma is often the cause of mental illness.
Let’s stay happy and healthy and support those dealing with Sickle Cell disease as we acknowledge National Sickle Cell Awareness Month this September.
The 4th Annual Las Vegas Caravan for Mammogram is set to take place October 4, 2021 — and it’s FREE to sign up. This event targets Black women residents of Southern Nevada and beyond in the movement to raise awareness about breast health. Please join us and decorate our vehicles in pink and black to join the parade of cars that will caravan down the Las Vegas Strip. Free decorations will be provided at the event staging location.
Our contributing writers are once again keeping our readers informed, educated, stimulated, and motivated. Need a better money mindset? Don’t miss Nevada State Bank’s Craig Kirkland’s monthly column on financial literacy.
Thank you to all who offer thoughts in Community Speaks each month and supply wonderful images for our Photos of The Month section.
Remember to pick up your FREE copy of Las Vegas Black Image Magazine each month at all local Albertsons supermarkets, libraries, cultural arts centers, and select businesses. Also, upon request, you can receive Black Image Magazine along with the Las Vegas Review Journal newspaper
We want to thank all who are riding with Las Vegas Black Image Magazine for our AT THE BEACH fundraiser this month in La Jolla, California on September 24-26. We’ll have a lot of great fun and relaxation to boost health and wellness.
