Today, I am writing my sister, Morning Star Trickey into history. When thinking of women I want to celebrate as we kick off Women's History Month, Morning Star comes to mind right away. I have looked up to her and admired her since day 1. When I was coming of age and she was entering her 20’s, I worshiped her like no other. Morning Star has been singing as long as I can remember. My little sister, Leila and I would beg to hang out in her room with her friends, listen to music and watch them rehearse. Her voice is magical and stops me in my tracks every time I hear her sing. I remember being mesmerized when I watched her outstanding performance in the musical "Hair" when I was only 10 years old. She is my favorite singer of all time. Besides being a charming older sister and gifted singer, Morning Star is a phenomenal women in many other ways. She is a magnificent mother, friend, mentor and disability rights advocate. Morning Star is currently a member of the City Soul Choir, a secular Vancouver, Canada community choir. Morning Star is such a beautiful soul and I honor her today and always.
