Description

I am honored today to share with you my kindred spirit, Milan Bush. I connected with her over 5 years ago, and while we haven't connected on a regular basis, every time I have touched her presence, she radiates PURE GOLD.

Milan Bush is the Founder + Visionary of Honoring Black Stories.

Honoring Black Stories was started in 2020 when Entrepreneur Milan Bush saw the need to highlight the empowering and positive stories in Midway’s Black community. Honoring Black Stories is currently the only Black owned business in Midway.

Honoring Black Stories was inspired by the lack of common knowledge regarding the contributions made to the commonwealth by Black Americans in Midway, KY. Bridging the gap of information by providing educational tours and contents, as well as giving back to the community in real-time ensures preservation for the future.

Honoring Black Stories is a place to learn and be heard. We wanted a way to share those mostly forgotten but so important narratives.

Honoring Black stories is a place where we bring black experience to life. By sharing accounts, we breathe life not into histories but into people and community.

In this episode, Milan and I discuss:

  1. What inspired her journey to create Honoring Black Stories?
  2. How has this evolved over time, what fuels your vision that brought this beautiful cause to life?
  3. What does it mean to share your gifts and amplify black voices?
  4. What impact has Honoring Black Voices had in your local community, and where do you see this mission blossoming into a Global force in elevating black stories?

Milan's Book Recommendation:

  1. Freedom Bound: Law, Labor, and Civic Identity in Colonizing English America 
  2. The Scholar: A Novel 
  3. The Bible + how we can relate this our modern day world.
