Destiny “Des” Polk, the founder of the art-activist platform Radical Black Girl, disappeared after she was last seen at the George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston, according to the Houston Police Department. Her father said Sunday she did not board her flight to Boston.

Johnnie Polk did not say how his daughter was located. He thanked law enforcement and said he is grateful she was found safe in the post.

“Most importantly I thank God for keeping my child safe in his arms and she will be up on her feet soon continually being a light and loving soul as always,” he wrote.
