🚨#BREAKING: A former Winston-Salem NC firefighter, Robert Grier, who turned 104-years-old today, received a special surprise for his birthday... A massive number of firetrucks paraded in front of his front porch to say happy birthday! Mr Grier was one of the first 8 Black firefighters ever to join the fire department in Winston-Salem and served for 30 years. Robert Grier joined the Winston-Salem Fire Department in 1951, more than a decade before racial segregation was outlawed in the United States. When asked if it was hard to integrate he said, "Matter of fact, I think we had fun integrating. We all got together and decided we were going to do this." What most legacy media outlets left out, however, is that Grier said that his unit NEVER fought about race, and they started each day with a devotional and prayer.. "The only answer I know is trust in God and do what you're supposed to do," Grier said. "Love each other even though you are rejected as we were. Just keep going and ignore it. Guess who will win? You will win. You put God in front of you and go forward." You won't hear this in the legacy media!!! Happy 104th Birthday Mr. Grier!!!! 🎉🥳
