With February being Black History month I just want to make mention of some of the black women who help sharp this great nation of ours…..
ReplyDeleteMaya Angelou a singer, actress, activist, and writer.
Josephine Baker during World War II worked with the Red Cross, gathered intelligence for the French Resistance and entertained troops in Africa and the Middle East.
Marian Anderson an African American singer, Marian Anderson found more success and fame in Europe than America until in 1939 the DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution) refused to allow her to sing in their Constitution Hall in Washington, DC. In part because of the public attention brought by this incident, Marian Anderson became one of the best-known African American women of the 20th century.
