Domo Jones is one that defines stay strong. Keep fighting. Being diagnosed with a brain tumor at nine to going through 187 chemotherapy treatments, I realized my story wasn’t just meant for me, there’s people that need to hear my journey. I self-published my first autobiography called “#DamagedButNotDead” taking you through the journey of my life and since then, I’ve published three more books and co-authored two. After having to use a walker at age 22, that developed a a business called “WalkingByDesign” which customizes medical accessories and during the Pandemic, being stuck in the house ignited a love interest for podcasting, so iI started a podcast called “Don’t let the disability fool you” interviewing the disabled community and essential caregivers. During my journey, I realized I can help people with how to change their mindset dealing with the struggles of life, so I became a Master Certified Disability Confidence Coach but I personally go by Disability Confidence Cōch. If that’s not enough, August of 2021 I wanted to take my podcast to another level, so I started my live talk show called “1 Billion Brave” representing the One Billion people in the world with disabilities giving them a space to share their stories of how they break the stigma beyond their conditions.
I’m a business owner with a disability, a Master Life Coach with muscle weakness, a podcast host that breaks the stigma and an author with a bold personality...I contradict every rule out there!! So my question is, what’s stopping you?! #DontLetTheDisabilityFoolYou

(3) OF 122 FEATURED BLACK AUTHORS FROM AROUND THE WORLD MEET AUTHOR BLAQUE DIAMOND



Her father left the family when she was six years old, so she was raised by her mother. Her dog died when she was 10 years old. She was tampered with as a child. She grew up with seven older siblings. Her dream of becoming an International Judge shifted gears when she was in high school. She contemplated suicide when she was 20. She was on the run after a hit was put on her and her family. Her husband’s body laid in the morgue for three weeks without being identified although he had identification in his wallet, which was in his pocket, and on his body before she found him. After relocating A murder was witnessed and she needed protection.


And with that said, Blaque Diamond never missed an opportunity to help children and families.


While still on the run, she earned a 3.5 GPA Bachelors Degree of Social Work and graduated a year later with a 4.0 Masters Degree in Social Work. Diamonds experiences took her on a journey to completing her memoir in 2010 in the event she did not survive, to 2015 when she published her first children’s books.


In 2018 one month after National Foster Care Month Diamond walked the streets carrying a trash bag with her personal belongings to work and throughout the city. She stopped to speak to people who would speak to her and to those who questioned her. One was the security officer at a state building. Blaque Diamond entered the building with her colleague, who was able to walk through with her purse. As Diamond walked through she was stopped and asked to place her bag on the conveyer belt before she entered. Diamond asked why she was being asked to place her bag on the conveyer belt when her colleague did not. The response was; all bags that entered the building would be checked. The officer stated the bag her colleague was carrying was her personal bag with her personal belongings. Diamond explained that the trash bag she was carrying was her personal bag with her personal belongings. Diamond displayed the items in her bags as her personal items. Confused, Diamond asked again what was the difference in her colleagues Gucci bag and Diamonds Glad bag. Diamond was able to walk through, however, after her visit Diamond returned to security to explain the reason for the trash bag; it was a challenge to give insight to those who need a quick reminder that we are the mirror of one another and that Diamond had just stepped into reality. The officer simply replied with “thank you.      




In 2020 she released her book trailer and the novel “1380 Prospect Avenue “Not Another Bronx Tale.” During filming she noticed some of the young actors left the acting behind and stepped into reality. One asked “what typically happens to children who are in foster care when they reach 18 years old.” Diamond took that teachable moment to provide insight to the actors about what typically happens to foster care children who age out; homeless.


Diamond is a Life Time Achievement Award winning and multi award winning author. She has been speaking on several platforms about foster care/adoption and sharing an incessantly endless passage into her life while parenting herself. Her passion is grandparents rights and family reunification


She is also the author of the Stacey F series of Children’s book on Foster Care and Adoption, In My Mother’s House, 1380 Prospect Avenue. She co-authored several books including one with her mother, Mama Forbes and several authors. Diamond also co-authored Amazon’s best seller- Open Your G.I.F.T.S vol II with Actress comedian Kim Coles.










Interesting that this Perfectly Imperfect Parent who was hurt as a child and during her journey in life does not hurt people, but parented 12 children 6 boys and 6 girls three of whom are her biological children.


Diamond could have chosen any walk of life, but instead life chose her to ensure what is in the best interest of a child and to keep families together.


Ladies and Gentlemen, Blaque Diamond
