from Talk Life · host MR.TALK718

I would like to Correct Jack Johnson's record He held the World Heavyweight Champion boxing title from 1908-1915 I said until 1950. This Episode is about my Take on what we call Black History Month, I would like for everyone to take the time and listen to my feeling surrounding the state and mindset of my people and also understand the glory and admiration I have for my ANCESTOR, that live and died to make life better for us yet we don't really take advantage of there sacrifice. WAKE UP let us celebrate and honor the road they built and reinforce it through courage and bravery to do the things we are not comfortable with and make a conditional change for the future of all people world wide.  Jack Johnson  https://www.biography.com/athlete/jack-johnson John Mercer Langston https://www.britannica.com/biography/John-Mercer-Langston Rosa Parks https://www.womenshistory.org/education-resources/biographies/rosa-parks Claudette Colvin https://www.biography.com/news/black-history-unsung-heroes-claudette-colvin Thurgood Marshall https://www.history.com/topics/black-history/thurgood-marshall George Washington Carver https://www.livescience.com/41780-george-washington-carver.html Hiram Rhodes Revels https://www.biography.com/political-figure/hiram-r-revels Shirley Anita Chisholm https://history.house.gov/People/Listing/C/CHISHOLM,-Shirley-Anita-(C000371)/ Madam C.J.
