Melanin✨Magic✨Monday-40 Acres and Mule? 🤔

from Adjusting Crowns-The Podcast Hosted by Melanated Queen

This Monday we are talking about the queen of "5th Ward" in Evanston, Illinois and how she made it possible for Evanston to be the first U.S. city to make reparations available to its Black residents. 🙌🏾 If that ain't some melanin magic, I have NO idea what is!
