Black History Month is a great time to amplify Black voices and tell stories so that they may not be forgotten. This month, I’m planning to once again highlight some of those I’ve learned about and the inspirational things they’ve done.

Shirley Chisholm dedicated her life to educating, and advocating for, the underprivileged. It was a mission that took her all the way to the House of Representatives where she became the first Black woman ever elected to Congress. #BlackHistoryMonth #WednesdayWisdom pic.twitter.com/bFYUTpZPXB

W.E.B. Du Bois was an activist and a key figure in the movement for equal human rights from the late 1800s on. His work to stop discrimination and promote equality paved the way for the United States Civil Rights Act. #BlackHistoryMonth #WednesdayWisdom pic.twitter.com/nF10a4PiVG

Kenny Washington broke the color barrier in the @NFL with the Rams, paving the way for players like me, and still holds a @RamsNFL franchise record. As a student of NFL & Rams history, I loved learning about the life and career of this Legend. #BlackHistoryMonth #WednesdayWisdom pic.twitter.com/RLTuZTrTb8
