    Actress Gabrielle Union threw a ton of shade at Stacy Dash during a recent interview and I loved every minute of it!

    Union, the star of BET’s? ‘Being Mary Jane,’ was asked at the Sundance Film Festival to respond to Dash’s comments that BET and Black History Month should not exist.? Her response was CLASSIC, stating… “Who’s that? Who’s Stacey Dash?”

    ?Is she like related to Dame Dash? Was she on Roc-A-Fella?? Union joked. ?I heard of a crazy lady once, but I don?t know what her name is.?

    Eleven cute kids dress as their favorite inspirational African-American role models in recognition of Black History Month (which by the way, should actually be EVERY month as opposed to the shortest month of the year… but I digress).

    Photographer Eunique Gibson Jones shot photos of kids are dressed as inconic Black Americans like?Oprah Winfrey, Rosa Parks, Spike Lee, Keri Washington and Muhammad Ali.

    Jones says it’s her goal to ?empower and excite young people about their history and their future in a creative and yet relatable way? and it appears she definitely hit the mark with her ?Because of Them, We Can? campaign.

    NEVER FORGET: 1865 Letter From Freed Slave To Former Master Surfaces…

    Feb, 1 2012 | Written by ATLien

    It has always been my belief that Black history should be taught 365 days a year just like “White” history, but since we’ve been dedicated the Month of February, we may as well make good use of it.

    A letter from a freed former slave to his onetime master has recently gone viral.

    The letter was written in response to an August of 1865 letter from Colonel P.H. Anderson of Big Spring, Tennessee, who wrote to his former slave Jourdan Anderson, requesting that Jourdon return to work on his farm.

    After being emancipated, Jourdon had moved to Ohio, found paid work, and was now supporting his family. He responded spectacularly by way of the letter seen below, which was reprinted in the New York Daily Tribune weeks after it’s mailing.

    It is quite clear in the letter, that the now free “Slave” felt some kinda way about his former Master’s request. The letter is a MUST read, especially in light of OUR history month so please take a moment to honor Jourdon by reading it in it’s entirety. Continue Reading…
