These girls dressed in Hidden Figures costumes make us really excited for the incredible things Black girls will continue to accomplish
Ambrielle Baker-Rogers, Miah Bell-Olson, and Morgan Coleman are just elementary schoolers, but they're already inspirational at a professional level. The three students dressed up for a project commemorating Black History Month. (Read More)
We’re sharing some of our favorite Black History Month figures you need to know about.
This is Bayard Rustin, a leading figure in the civil rights movement and advisor to Martin Luther King. He was the architect of the 1963 March on Washington and was heavily involved in the first Freedom Rides.
He was also gay and a registered communist who went to jail for his sexual orientation.
Although widely heralded, he was attacked even by fellow activists for his faith in nonviolence, unapologetic queerness, and attention to income equality. President Obama honored Rustin posthumously with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2013.
Read about more Black women and men currently making history as artists and activists.
Black women didn't exist in this world just as black, or just as women, or just as lesbians, or just as poor people, or as workers, but all of those things. All of our identities and experiences reflect the kind of systemic oppressions that impact our lives.

@Regran_ed from @refinery29 - 1. “Indigenous” doesn’t = “Native American.” It just means “native,” period. 2. Today we honor the indigenous people of this country, and recognize the pain and suffering (let’s be real: we’re talking about genocide) they‘ve endured. 3. Native Americans are STILL underrepresented and not prioritized. There is so much work to be done. 4. Let’s also use this day to celebrate the contributions of Native Americans. 3. We’re sorry — Chris, who? #AcknowledgeIsPower Design: @ereedme - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/BorcLVsl2i8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ev2v1s8kltyc
