AUTHOR SEEKS TO EMPOWER YOUNG BLACK GIRLS

Tamera Elyse Trimuel is using her voice to empower and inspire young Black girls with her book, “Dear Black Girl, You Are IT!” Trimuel, a senior at Marion Catholic High School, said the same message she had when she started her business, when she was 9-years-old, is the same message she has now. She said the message matured with her. Her business, Tamera’s Treasures, had the tagline, “Treasure the girl in you.”
