Happy BLACK History Month. I read Black books every month but I got two stacks for y'all.

First stack is books by Black authors I loved and the second are the ones I’m getting to.

Before you let anyone dismiss Black History Month, remember—it exists because of the dedication and work of Black people. It wasn’t given to us; we built it.

Check out this breakdown I did months ago after Morgan Freeman said he "detests" Black History Month.

Happy Black History Month! Here is my favorite story about a Black American you may not know about: Robert Smalls. He commandeered a confederate ship and sailed himself, his family, and the other enslaved crew and their families to freedom. THROUGH waters controlled by the Confederacy.

Here’s a truth bomb.

There are NO primary schools in the United States teaching children CRT.

There is however millions of parents in the United States teaching children that felonies and sexual assault are absolutely OK.

I’d recommend everyone regardless of medical risk bring a mask on your airplane journey, a disinfectant wipe to clean the seat you’re in and hand sanitizer.

It’s going to be on you alone to protect your health.

Warning signs are everywhere.

After some Costco shareholders asked the company to end its DEI policies, this was their response: “Our board has considered this proposal and believes that our commitment to an enterprise rooted in respect and inclusion is appropriate and necessary."

This explains why Costco is an industry leader!
