You read it right….while it is uncertain what the ‘rules’ and/or ‘qualifications’ are for this title, nonetheless…it’s quite an honor for the cakes (as a whole) to take this award! It was announced on December 23, while the Top 5 nominations were announced just a few days ago. Throughout the last two weeks people were allowed to vote for the Top 5 people nominated (the others were PROMO Executive Director A.J. Bockelman, Recorder of Deeds-elect Sharon Q. Carpenter, Young Activist United Director Rasheen Aldridge Jr. and Magdalene St. Louis Director Tricia Roland-Hamilton). Others receiving votes were the hashtag (#Ferguson), the late Oscar Taveres, politician Steve Stenger and many others.
Congratulations to the cakes (as a whole)!
