Happy birthday abolitionist and activist Frederick Douglass! He chose to celebrate his birthday #OTD because he did not know when he was born. Douglas's birthday is one reason Woodson chose Feb to mark Negro History Week. #BHM
DYK that Salt Spring's first teacher was John Craven Jones, a young black man? He was the only teacher on the Island for 12 years. In addition to reading, writing & math, he also taught geometry, geography, Latin & Greek—all without pay. https://t.co/Qw1XoALkvl #BlackHistoryMonth
Day 7
“Most people don’t want to change. They’re comfortable and set in their ways. But in order to change, you have to be able to agitate people at times. And I think that’s something that’s very necessary for us to improve as a country.”
(Colin Kaepernick)
