On March 22nd, 2021, our friend Sahara was shot and killed three days after her 23rd birthday.

While it is important to understand what happened, Sahara’s life will not be defined by this act of violence.

Instead, she is remembered for the many lives she touched in her young life, and how many more people she will continue to inspire and impact through her legacy.
