Heard this interview by @profblmkelley on #nprfreshair. It was superb! Our family’s stories from about their #pullmanporter experiences are why I had a pocket watch restored as a reminder to fulfill their dreams. Her family’s escape from #sharecropper debt..moving! #newfollower

I like colourising old photographs when I have some time. This, I think, is my best work so far. The iconic 1943 photograph of a #PullmanPorter at #Chicago Union Station.

@backwards_river I beamed w pride when I saw Black man mixing drink. I was thinking “there won’t be any Black passengers.” My mom’s brother was a #pullmanporter. I’ll have 2 show her this clip. 👍🏾 George Pullman thought that former slaves would know best how 2 cater 2 his customers’ every whim.

After my friends found out my great great grandfather Ephraim Greir was a Pullman Porter they gave me an original Pullman towel used by the porters. . . . . . #pullmanporters #pullmanporter #blackfamily… https://t.co/ZS9PYi97He

@IWashington @tvonetv #EDNixon was truly an unsung hero of the #BusBoycott. I reference him in every speech I give. Wish more people knew his contributions. #BlackHistoryMonth #PullmanPorter
