It's not just history; it's living proof that Black is brilliant. 3️⃣ Meeting Living Ancestors: Imagine the power of our children meeting their living ancestors – those who are currently shaping our world. It's an opportunity for them to connect, to understand firsthand the journey of brilliance, and to see that they too can be trailblazers in their own right. 🤔Need some inspo? Check out our book, "B is for Black Brilliance." It's packed with stories of modern Black ancestors.
