At a time when the world feels divided, our Sister City bond with Eldoret, Kenya—25 years strong—reminds us of the power of connection, culture, and respect. This week, I was honored to welcome Governor Dr. Bii Chelilim and Eldoret delegates. Asante sana—and here’s to more.

Today, I proclaimed it Black Business Week in Minneapolis — marking our 5th year celebrating and supporting Black-owned businesses. From pop-ups to workshops to new partnerships, this week-long event is about investing in Black economic success and lifting up local entrepreneurs!
