Home Actress Michelle Obama HD Photos and Wallpapers January 2023 Michelle Obama Instagram - From breaking down barriers to higher education to helping students manage their mental and emotional health, school counselors play powerful roles in the lives of young people around our country. As a parent, it means a lot to know that our kids have school counselors to turn to for support as they explore their futures. That’s why I could not be prouder to honor the counseling team at Woodrow Wilson High School in Los Angeles, CA, for being the winner of the 2023 Excellence In College Counseling Award given by @ReachHigher, @CommonApp, and Collegewise. Wilson's College Corner team, led by Elsa Gutierrez-Aviles, helped increase their school's FAFSA submission rate by over 300% compared to this time last year. They also went above and beyond to help their students manage the stress of home and school life by setting up a “Mule Closet”—a free and confidential closet students can use to access clothing, hygiene products, and school supplies. I was so inspired to learn about the creative and innovative solutions these educators are using to help their students succeed. Congratulations to this incredible team of changemakers at Woodrow Wilson High School. Looking forward to seeing how you support your students in the years ahead! #ReachHigher #EICC23 🎓🎉

Michelle Obama Instagram – Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s fight for justice took patience and perseverance, leadership and compassion, and a love for humanity that all of us should strive for. The fight for our democracy is no different, and it calls on each and every one of us to take part. 
 
This #MLKDay, I hope you will join me in honoring the life and legacy of Reverend. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by taking at least one action to support and uplift your community—whether it’s volunteering to tutor students at your local school or texting three friends to remind them to check their voter registration through @WhenWeAllVote. There are so many ways to give back and I hope you’ll make a commitment to do just that this year.
Michelle Obama Instagram – I was lucky enough to grow up surrounded by relatives—grandparents, aunties, uncles, cousins, and more—with stories to tell and a willingness to share them. Over the years, through these conversations, I learned that I was the descendant of slaves—my grandfather’s grandmother lived her life in bondage. 
 
Discovering that slavery was a part of my family’s story was painful and sobering. Like many African Americans, reflecting on this dark part of our history is never comfortable. And it still opens up wounds that many of us still aren’t ready to deal with just yet.
 
But to this day, I am so grateful for the chance to hear about my ancestors. Because despite how difficult it was to hear some of them, it helped me develop a greater sense of self—and gave me motivation to keep going, work my hardest, and be the best that I could be. I want my story to honor theirs. I want to make the most of my opportunities when so many who came before me had so few.
 
And that’s why the film Descendant on Netflix means so much to me. It comes from our production company, @HigherGroundMedia, and it tells the story of the descendants of the survivors of the Clotilda, which is believed to be the last ship that carried enslaved Africans to the United States. To me, the film is about navigating the delicate parts of our history—and the power that comes from learning about the people who came before you. It’s about reclaiming our stories—and owning them for ourselves. 
 
Have you had a chance to check it out? Did it make you reflect about your own ancestry, too? I’d love to know if there is an ancestor of yours who has influenced your life. Tell me more in the comments and join the Descendant Challenge by sharing photos and more about your family history using the hashtag #DescendantChallenge. I wanted to share these photos of various members of my family with all of you. I can’t wait to hear about your story, too.
