Kelly Rowland siblings: Meet Orlando Rowland
On April 13, the former member of Destiny’s Child released a screenshot of a message she got from her brother Orlando Rowland and revealed that each person of color is struggling with a trauma related to the ongoing inequalities and deaths.
Rowland released the message that reads: I kiss my family every day like it’s the last time I’m gonna see them. That’s not normal. Nothing too normal to consider it could be the last time I see my family. Our people living in trauma.
After uploading the screenshot, Rowland, who welcomed her second baby shortly before, first wrote that the message was sent by her brother and continued:
He expressed this thought and I haven’t been the same the rest of the evening. Like most of us, I am angry about Daunte Wright’s life being taken away, in a senseless act! Stating that people of color do not deserve to live in trauma
