@JalenRose @Tubi Season 2?

Watch NOW on @Tubi

Dr. Cledie Collins Taylor, a legendary Detroit artist and educator, died at 100. I used @MIChronicle archives to tell a story that begins in her teens and follows a journey in desegregating the arts and elevating Black Detroit artists to the world’s stage: michiganchronicle.com/cledie-taylor-…

Soul is born from our ancestors. It’s not imported from other countries. EJ Jones has these kids doing this at high school talent shows.

@Sumseason Westside but I love the Eastside

Okay people need to tell me if they are east side or west siders in the Detroit area. I love finding that out. I’m an east sider all day.

@rosethaaartist Woodward if you’re West, Dequindre if your East.

If you from Detroit, what street separate the East and the West ?

‌Transportation should never stand in the way of opportunity. ‌ Ride to Rise gives every Detroit student K–12 free DDOT rides year-round — connecting them to school, after-school programs, and more.‌

We Were Already Here. The “out of Africa” theory is bogus

The Deacons for Defense and Justice don’t get nearly enough attention in the history books. Formed in Louisiana in 1964, they were a network of armed Black men who made a choice — if the government wouldn’t protect their communities from Klan violence, they would do it themselves. They ran armed escorts for civil rights workers, stood guard outside the homes of movement leaders, and refused to leave their people unprotected. Jerry Martin was part of that. A Tuscaloosa, Alabama native who served as a foot soldier for the Deacons during the height of the Civil Rights Movement. In this clip he speaks candidly about the mindset it took to do what they did — and the reality of what they were up against. His testimony was captured in September of 2020 during an interview conducted by Dr. John Gigi, professor of history at the University of Alabama. The sit down took place at the Martin family home in Tuscaloosa, with his wife Daisy Lou Martin, daughter Marilyn Edwards, and son-in-law Kenneth Edwards all present. History didn’t record these men the way it should have. We’re making sure their story gets told.
