Lupita continued to rise in
honour and recognition as Congressman Charles Rangel and Voza Rivers, Chairman
of the Harlem Arts Alliance, announced that October 20 is officially “Lupita
Nyong’o Day” in Harlem, New York.
The honour was announced as
a surprise during an open discussion between Nyong'o and image activist
Michaela Angela Davis at Mist Harlem, a restaurant located in the popular and
predominantly black neighbourhood.
Immediately after the
event, Nyong’o posted a video on Instagram to share her appreciation. “My heart
is swollen with the love and welcome I just received from the Harlem
Community,” she wrote.
