Today we’re honoring Griot B, the visionary creator and artist behind SchoolYard Rap. By blending the power of hip-hop with authentic Black history, he has transformed education into an immersive experience for learners of all ages.

We're honoring Black pioneers in politics today 🎤✊

The leaders who broke through barriers, made history, and reshaped what was possible in America. From the first to run to the first to win, Black politicians have been fighting for progress and proving that representation matters. They paved the way for generations to come. Tag a student, tag a teacher, tag EVERYBODY who needs this!

Today we’re honoring Robert Smalls, an extraordinary hero who performed one of the most daring escapes in American history. In 1862, while enslaved, Smalls commandeered a Confederate transport ship, the CSS Planter, navigated it past armed forts, and delivered it—along with his family and other enslaved people—to the Union blockade to gain their freedom. He went on to become a pilot in the Union Navy, a brigadier general in the South Carolina militia, and eventually a U.S. Congressman. His legacy as a brilliant strategist and statesman remains a powerful testament to courage and the relentless pursuit of liberty.

paved the way for progress even when their names were erased from history. 'Say Her Name' is a tribute to the women who broke through and deserve to be remembered.

Today we’re honoring Wilma Rudolph, the legendary track and field athlete who became the first American woman to win three gold medals in a single Olympic Games. Despite facing significant health challenges as a child, including polio, she rose to become the fastest woman in the world during the 1960 Rome Olympics. Her incredible speed and grace on the track broke international barriers and made her a global icon for perseverance and civil rights. Wilma’s legacy continues to inspire generations of athletes to overcome adversity and strive for greatness.
