"The more you know of your history the more liberated you are." Maya Angelou

I grew tired of hearing my daughter be taught the same recycled surface level information in school about Black History Month: Rosa Parks, Jackie Robinson, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, & Barack Obama. So I took matters into my own hands and added some additional names to the curriculum. Claudette Colvin, Irene Morgan Kirkaldy, Jane Bolin, Bayard Rustin, Bass Reeves, Bessie Coleman, Lewis Latimer, and a few others. Our history is so RICH yet they hide so many of our Golden Figures. Tune in and join me in celebrating and acknowledging our Golden Figures who have been hidden.
