Today in African American history we pay tribute to William DeHart Hubbard. William DeHart Hubbard was a track and field athlete who was the first African American to win an Olympic gold medal in an individual event: the running long jump at the 1924 Paris Summer games. Because of William DeHart Hubbard, other African American Athletes & Olympians like Sha'Carri Richardson, Serena Williams, Simone Biles, Usian Bolt, Donald young & Cullen Jones. We’re able to follow their dreams without having to be the only. AASU would like to help inspire you today. By reminding you that you should never be afraid to be the first. Always look beyond the moment that is set before you. Because although you maybe the first, you won’t be the only.

Ruth Brown born on January 12, 1928. Known as the Queen of R&B. Ruth Brown was a rhythm and blues singer. Who crusaded for musicians rights. She was noted for bringing a pop music style to R&B music in a series of hit songs for Atlantic Records in the 1950s. Such as "So Long", "Teardrops from My Eyes" and " He Treats Your Daughter Mean". She also earned the sobriquet “Miss Rhythm” while dominating the rhythm-and-blues charts throughout the 1950s. Her success helped establish Atlantic Records & shine the musical light on African American culture. Today Ruth Brown is our honoree and we thank her for inspiring R&B culture. Her sound is noted and found through music today. & her voice forever lives through the songbirds of the music industry.
