Stumbled upon Mme. Dr. Jerusha L. Overton this morning researching something different. Spent 4hrs learning and digging up what can to share her story. I was so excited—everyone had to know about her today too. It’s crazy how many unsung (Black) heroes there are in NEPA!

I’ve been working on Dr. Foster’s story for awhile. No longer an forgotten local legend

[Black Scranton @BlackScranton]

Today as we navigate the racialised impact of Covid-19 and the demand for racial justice and equity by the #BlackLivesMatter movement, We felt this individual’s legacy was too inspiring and too timely...meet Dr. James E. Foster the city of Scranton’s first Black Doctor.
