Ella Josephine Baker, born in Norfolk, Virginia in 1903, was one of the most influential, and largely unknown, people in this nation’s history who was intimately involved in the fight for civil rights for oppressed communities. While she spent the majority of her time as an activist fighting for the rights of Black men and women, she was also an outspoken advocate for women of all races, Latinx people, and people in poverty. Starting in Harlem, her activism focused on grass roots organizations and spread across the country. She led multiple protests against racial injustice, colonialism, and fascism in America. In the 1950s, she fought against police brutality and segregation in the early days of the Civil Rights movement. She was also an organizer and advisor for SNCC (Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee) and SCLC (Southern Christian Leadership Conference). One of the many causes she fought for was the vote. African Americans, while technically granted access to the vote with the 15th and 19th Amendments, in reality were often unable to register due to discriminatory practices and regulations that operated around the amendment. As the Associate Director of SCLC, Baker fought to increase the number of registered African American voters in the 1958 and 1960 elections to exercise their right to vote where possible. This work to get more African Americans registered to vote, broadened awareness in the fight for voting rights in Black communities, and laid the groundwork for the 1965 Voting Rights Act. On the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment as well as the 55th anniversary of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, we are honoring inspirational women throughout America’s history who have fought for the rights of the disenfranchised. Who was the first woman in your family to vote?

This VERY handsome dude was my dad. They say time heals but really it just means you learn to deal with missing them. Been thinking about him a lot these past few weeks as we get back to work and reassess what “normal” means He was a total entrepreneur, way ahead of his time. Grew up in poverty, don’t think he got to finish secondary school yet his vocabulary was amazing (he used to read the dictionary for fun!) taught me about motivational speakers eg #zigziglar #napoleonhill before I even knew what motivation was. He was the one that always taught me “when life gives you lemons make lemonade” I’m reflecting on a week where for most of my patients this has been their first proper trip out. Alot of emotion from everyone this week, from sobbing due to the anxiety of getting on a train and the relief to find it was ok after all, to hysterical laughter sharing lockdown stories, it’s been a rollercoaster. I remember feeling devastated when he told me dentists are not “proper doctors, in Nigeria we have good teeth” I remember feeling elated when he told me how proud he was of me and coming to see the practice when it first opened. Above all I remember him telling me “you can do anything you set your mind on, just make sure to make a difference to the people around you“ I’m feeling really blessed as I reflect on the week, on everyone that made the effort to come in, recognising how important their oral health is...because I think he’d be proud...then he’d tell me to get over myself 😂😂 #daddysgirl😘 #ilovemypatients #londonsmiling - @druchennaokoye on Instagram

Hey guys!! In my book Black Feminist Thought it demonstrates Black women’s emerging power agents of knowledge. Afrocentric feminist thought speaks to the importance of oppression. One distinguishing feature of Black feminist thought is its insistence that both the changed consciousness of individuals and the social transformation of political and economic ingredients for social change. New knowledge is important for both dimensions of change. Buy my book at your local Barnes and Nobles or online at Amazon. Enjoy!!!🌼📚 - @collinspatriciahill on Instagram

Putting a few faces to the names of 12+ headstones at Evergreen Cemetery that were defaced with blue paint over the weekend. As written in their obituaries, the individuals whose headstones were defaced led successful lives in Austin as church leaders and school teachers. Many were born at the turn of the century and grew up in rural Central Texas freedom colonies like Littig and St. John’s Colony 🕊 Evergreen Cemetery was established by the City of Austin in 1926 as the first municipal graveyard for Black residents. Thank you to @tonyaforconstable for compiling a list of affected headstones: David & Carolyn T. Arnold Robert H. & Kathyn Burnham Henry & Alice Carson Thomas Clark Bonner & Geneva Harden Lula Hawkins Eugene & Ethel Hill O.G. Sr & Lue Etta Houston Ed Hunter Christopher Barry Jones Willie Thurman and Bernice Jones Bennie & Florine Marshall Robert Thomas & Ruth C. McAllister Rev.

Don’t let anyone take you back to a level that you leveled up from⠀ ================================⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In 1911, a black Chicagoan named Rufus Estes published his own cookbook,⠀ Good Things to Eat as Recommended by Rufus.⠀ Rufus Estes worked for the Pullman company, He had working his way up⠀ from a porter to chef looking after the unimaginably luxurious private deluxe⠀ Pullman railway cars that traveled across America in the second half of the⠀ 1800s.⠀ He honed his culinary skills preparing lavish meals for industry magnates and⠀ even American presidents. Estes ran a more stationary kitchen as a caterer to⠀ executives with the U.S. Steel Corporation, the first billion-dollar corporation in⠀ the world, by the time his cookbook appeared. Sadly, this man described in a⠀ black Chicago newspaper as “one of the best known chefs of Chicago” died in⠀ obscurity.⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ Please follow this instagram for more fascinating culinary history content.

In 1918 businessman and community leader Frederick Madison Roberts earned the title of Californias first Black elected assemblyman. Roberts defeated his opponent who ran his campaign with nothing but racial slurs against him. Instead of race-baiting, Roberts ran his campaign on real policy. His candidacy was built on securing voting rights for Black males. Through his work he was able to pass a number of civil rights mesaures in the areas of public accomodations and education. He also sponsored legislation to establish UCLA, expanded the use of school textbooks, and proposed civil rights and anti-lynching measures. Frederick Madison Roberts won many elections, serving a total of 16 years in the state assembly. Another interesting fact about Frederick Madison Roberts is that he was the first recorded Black graduate of LA High School! Shoutout to all the Romans out there! Frederick Madison Roberts held notable firsts in our great city and was truly an agent of change for the rights we hold today! #StoriesOfBlackLA - @destinationcrenshaw on Instagram

George Polgreen Bridgetower: An African Prodigy in England 1789-1860. An outstanding violinist. Best known for his association with Ludwig van Beethoven, who wrote the piece Kreutzer Sonata just for him to play in 1803 (the full title was Sonata composed for the Mulatto). The composer praised him as “a very capable virtuoso who has a complete command of his instrument”. He was born in Poland to a West Indian father and German mother. He moved to London at an early age and was performing in theaters by the age of ten. The scope of Bridgetowers career in Europe becomes apparent when one sees what was written about him in late eighteenth-century English, French, and Austro-German newspapers, memoirs, and journals. By the age of twelve he was recognised by Londons musical intelligentsia as a respected member of its artistic community. By 1799, he performed in approximately fifty publicised concerts as a soloist or a principal musician. How did Bridgetower overcome some of the obvious racial barriers of his day? (1) He had an entreprenurial father who brought his son to the attention of the English aristocracy; (2) He was so skilful that he gained the unwavering financial support of that aristocracy; (3) For his day he had an above average education - a factor that often facilitated the rise up the social ladder in Georgian England; and (4) He won the support and friendship of George, Prince of Wales, later George IV of England. Bridgetower eventually fell out with Beethoven over the snub of a mutual female friend, he obviously deserves much more attention for the contributions he made to Classical music performance. - @blackmusichistory on Instagram
