pinky’s promise • For 33-year-old activist and entrepreneur Aisha “Pinky” Cole — founder of Slutty Vegan and the mastermind behind a foundation that is changing the way Atlanta treats its Black community—vegan burgers are the first step toward healing.

BLACK & WELL • IN CASE YOU HADN’T NOTICED, the world of wellness has exploded into the modern age. Trendy mushroom lattes, trampoline classes that target your lymphatic system, and did you know CBD is out and CBG is in? But the most exciting, and important, part of the modern wellness boom isn’t the next forest floor ingredient we’ll be sipping on, but what the world of wellness will look like. The future of the industry is inviting and inclusive. It’s accessible to different genders, classes, body types, and skin colors. It turns old norms on its head (trap yoga, anyone?). And luckily, it’s all happening now. As momentum builds, an exciting wave of Black spaces, products, and platforms is starting to make a serious dent in its largely white facade. From Black-owned virtual houseplant stores to fitness studios free from microaggressions to the advocates fighting to save the lives of Black women through fertility services, these trailblazers are proving, once and for all, that wellness is for everyone.
