Community Champion Spotlight: Meet Kimberly Biggs-Jordan

In an era where Black culture and history often face erasure, Kimberly Biggs-Jordan champions their celebration. She will lead a Legacy Tour to Col. Allensworth State Historic Park on June 14, commemorating two decades of guiding youth through this historic all-Black town. This forthcoming tour marks her final pilgrimage to the park. Biggs-Jordan takes great pride in witnessing young adults from Dream Builders impart their knowledge to the next generation. “Reflecting on my journey, I recognize the collective impact we’ve made,” she shared. Grateful for the support from The OBSERVER and Senior Writer Genoa Barrow, her favorite 2006 article continues to inspire her. Recently, she hosted a community event honoring her late mother, while she aspires to write her own book, focusing on personal growth.
