In a message to HistoryMakers who were able to attend, Richardson's special assistant Dionti Davis wrote "It was a wonderful evening, and we were so happy to have you with us on such short notice! It was a pleasure for us to meet you in person, and to get to know you beyond your bio. We would love to follow up with you in order to discuss your ideas on how we should move forward in Los Angeles." Richardson and her team are planning to host a special Salute to all of their current HistoryMakers in Los Angeles in the near future.
