Celebrating Black History Month

Jacqueline Alethea is of a mixed-race background. Her mom was born in Cuba and raised in Jamaica. Her dad was born in Ontario, with ancestral roots to M’Chigeeng First Nation. Alethea, the middle name of three generations, means ‘truth’. Jacqueline tries to embrace her cultural alignment through food and music but has yet to travel to as many ancestral locations as she would like. One of Jacqueline’s proudest stories is about the birth of her daughter, who was born with a Mongolian spot. This congenital birthmark is seen most commonly over the lumbosacral area and most commonly in individuals of African ethnic background.
