Today, families worldwide have an empty seat at their dinner table because a family member made the ultimate sacrifice to ensure our country’s freedom.

Their courage and dedication will never be forgotten. Today, we pause to reflect on their selflessness and the profound impact they've had on our nation, and their families who bear the burden of their absence 🕊️

Today, we wore green to observe Mental Health Awareness Month, a reminder that mental health matters.

This year, Mental Health America’s theme, "More Good Days, Together," encourages us to reflect on what a “good day” looks like for ourselves. A good day doesn’t have to mean perfect or productive. Sometimes it simply means feeling calm, supported, or making it through a tough moment.

More good days are possible, and we don’t have to navigate mental health alone. If you’ve been wondering how you’re really doing, start with a free, quick, and confidential mental health screening: screening.mhanational.org.

While still making room for grace.

Today, we honor the mothers of our sisterhood.

And reminds us that sisterhood extends far beyond titles alone.

Today we celebrate every mother,
Grandmother, bonus mom, godmother, auntie, grieving mother, legacy mother, and woman who mothers through love alone.

Thank you for the prayers whispered over your children.
Thank you for the sacrifices no one saw.
Thank you for pouring into others even when you were tired yourself.
Thank you for teaching us what grace, faith, and Finer Womanhood truly look like.

May this Mother’s Day remind you that your love matters,
Your presence matters,
And your legacy will continue blooming long after today.

Happy Mother’s Day to the beautiful women of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated and the Zeta Amicae of South Carolina.

Sincerely yours,
Dr. Reathea Nesbitt, 13th South Carolina State Director

Each year, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated reaffirms its unwavering commitment to eradicating sexual and domestic violence while standing in solidarity with survivors.

Why Denim?👖In 1992, the Italian Supreme Court overturned a r**e conviction, arguing that because the victim’s jeans were tight, she must have helped remove them — falsely equating this as consent. This injustice sparked a global movement, reminding us that there is never an excuse, nor an invitation for sexual violence.

Sexual and domestic violence know no boundaries, affecting individuals from all walks of life. As sisters, we must shatter the silence, raise awareness, and empower survivors on their journey to healing.
