HAPPY BLACK HISTORY MONTH!!! I don't know about y'all, but I wake up every day proud to be BLICKETY BLACK BLACK BLACK BLACK!!!

In honor of Black History Month, I'd like to take some time to shed light on people in black history who may have been forgotten. In today's episode, let's journey through the unsung heroism of Claudette Colvin, the young girl whose defiance against segregation laws preceded Rosa Parks’ famous protest. Despite facing the harsh reality of Jim Crow laws and an unjust legal system, her defiant spirit remained unyielding. This episode doesn't just stop at sharing her story but also reflects on the broader struggle for respect and recognition in the Black community. We'll tackle controversial actions surrounding Black History Month, DEI rollbacks, and celebrate the enduring strength and pride of being Black, all while honoring those who've paved the way before us. Join me in this tribute to resilience and legacy.
