Congrats to Nandi!

It is such an honor for me to make history for my continent and represent HER as the host ? for Afropunk on the Green Stage. * * * The Green Stage is the biggest stage at Afropunk, and to be doing this in New York City really shows that dreams do come true. This is going to be amazing! Thank you @afropunk #wethepeople ?
