The national unemployment rate may reportedly be dipping, but the unemployment rate for Black folks, particularly black women, is still disproportionately high AF.

Questions about why ICE arrested a nun continue to grow after her release from custody.

The Catholic Diocese of Brownsville said that on Sunday, Sister Leticia Ugboaja was detained by agents as she was walking to attend mass in McAllen, Texas. https://t.co/RpaUcW31TZ

[AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY @AfricanArchives]

In the remote corners of South Carolina, where poverty and lack of access to healthcare made illness almost a death sentence, one woman illuminated the lives of thousands with her dedication and knowledge. Her name was Maude Callen ( pictured holding her hand over the elderly woman), but to those who knew her, she will always be remembered as the "Angel of the Twilight."

Born in Florida in 1898, Callen faced adversity from a young age. Orphaned along with her 12 sisters, she found not only a home but also a calling with her uncle, one of the first Black doctors in the country. From him, she learned medical techniques that she later perfected at Florida A&M University and Georgia Infirmary in Savannah.

In the early 1920s, she moved to Pineville as a medical missionary, becoming the primary healthcare provider in an isolated community with no access to hospitals. Her home was not just a refuge but a community clinic, where she treated wounds, illnesses, and, most importantly, brought hope. She also traveled a 400-square-mile region, navigating difficult roads to visit those who needed her most.

Callen's impact went beyond that of a nurse; she was a doctor, dietitian, psychologist, support system, and friend.

It is estimated that she assisted in the birth of between 600 and 800 babies throughout her career, ensuring that each new life had a dignified start. She also passed on her knowledge to other women, training future midwives and ensuring that her legacy would live on. In 1989, the Medical University of South Carolina awarded her an honorary degree, and a scholarship was established in her name at the nursing school, ensuring that new generations of professionals would follow her example. Maude Callen devoted her life to healing both bodies and souls, leaving an indelible mark on the history of medicine and humanitarian service.

Happy Birthday to civil rights activist
Medgar Evers.

[NAACP @NAACP]

Sixty-two years ago today, equal protection became the law of the land under the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

This was the result of relentless organizing, courageous protesting, and an unyielding belief that every person deserves equal protection under the law. NAACP stood at the heart of that struggle, lobbying tirelessly to outlaw discrimination.

And today, we honor the advocates who made this milestone possible by recommitting to the work that remains. The promise of equality is not yet fully realized, and the fight for justice still needs us.

Louis doesn’t have to “earn” Lestat’’s forgiveness because it wasn’t his choice to publish the book 🙂 he was in a deep state of grief & turmoil, the moment he found closure and clarity he immediately shut all off 🙂 he feels bad it hurt Lestat, and that’s where it ends.

@KHOU Praying 🙏🏾 for this dear family. Such a beautiful soul. Wishing them joy each time they think of her 🙏🏾
