20 MISS BLACK ALABAMA USA TIONNA TAITE
door was opened and I could not be more grateful A to be the one to walk through it. In <strong>No</strong>vember 2021, I was officially crowned as Miss Black Alabama USA 2022. This title grants me with even more opportunities to serve my community and state. Within this role, I serve as a spokesperson for my generation by researching, preparing, and delivering public appearance presentations, performances, and speeches pertaining to voting, human rights, mental health, and many other topics. As a state titleholder, I will also build on the legacy of Miss Black Alabama USA by sharing my social initiative “Diversifying Digital Media & Elevating Marginalized Voices.” I aspire to prove that diversifying digital media benefits people of all backgrounds because it provides education on cultural topics and helps produce socially-conscious, ethical, and well-rounded citizens. I will specifically focus on three areas: Colleges, High Schools, and Mainstream Media. The Miss Black USA Organization is the first and largest scholarship pageant for women of color. The pageant empowers women to own their power and celebrates their unique talents, traits and beauty. Miss Black USA defines her own standard of beauty and celebrates the whole woman, mind, body and spirit, all shades of brown, hair texture and size. 21
