Blackness is Good

Im still one the fence about Black History month not only because its the shortest month in the year, but also because every day Black history is made and I live the life. However, there is no WAY that I can ignore the reason and struggle made to bring it into existence. The fact remains that schools refuse to teach children the REAL history, so WE as a community MUST step up. I always do projects with my children to make sure they are knowledgeable. This week I decided to teach my daughter about the great things that come from HBCU's. This event happened 2 years ago at one of my alma maters...THIS is just the tip of the iceburg for the kind of education you will get.
