The new Miss Black Kentucky USA is crowned this evening in Louisville
This afternoon, family friends and supporters gathered at the Women’s Club of Louisville to see Sophia Crowder of Louisville be crowned Miss Black Kentucky USA. In the Talented Teen division Helena Gordon of Louisville competed and won and Ciara Johnson of Louisville won in the Ms. Division. All three winners will represent Kentucky in the Miss Black USA in 2024.
The Queen Mother Foundation will oversee their various appearances and opportunities over the next year so the community will get to know Miss Crowder, Ms. Ciara Johnson, and Talented Teen Helena Gordon.
Also, this evening we currents queens got an opportunity to thank everyone for the opportunities they received over the past year.
This afternoon we had a lot to celebrate. Last year’s winner in the Miss division, Miss Ariel Thompson went on to win Miss Black USA in Washington, DC and will reign for the next 12 months.
Dr. Ashley Anderson, Executive Director of Miss Black Kentucky USA says “Contestants had a great opportunity to showcase their talents and be their authentic selves. I found twenty wonderful ladies who worked hard to get to this point. When they walked across the stage I, along with family and friends felt a sense of pride. It’s more than winning a crown and a title but it begins a service of volunteerism, scholarship, and pride of who you are. This was a special evening for us all and I can’t wait to see what the royal court will do today and beyond.”
