Welcome to this year’s pageant. We would like to take the time to thank everyone who dedicated their time, efforts and charitable contributions to this pageant. The Miss Black Empowerment & Mr. Black Louisiana Pageant has grown and is the premiere pageant system for African American girls, women and young men. Our contestants have worked tirelessly through mentorship, community service projects and more to insure that this pageant remains ever-present for many years to come.
These contestants have proven their dedication and commitment to service, so tonight let us all support them as they display their talents and accomplishments. To my staff, supporters and friends, we say “THANK YOU.” We are looking forward to seeing you all again on next year as we continue to carry the torch.
