The cause of freedom is not the cause of a race or a sect, a party or a class—it is the cause of humankind." – Anna Julia Cooper Born enslaved in Raleigh, NC, Anna Julia Cooper defied every limitation set before her, becoming a scholar, educator, and Black feminist leader who championed the power of education to uplift Black women and the entire race. Her words still inspire today—because when Black women rise, we all rise. 💜✨ #WomensHistoryMonth #AnnaJuliaCooper #BlackExcellence #EducationForLiberation #NCHistory

"Let us take time, therefore, to be gracious, to be thoughtful, to be kind, using the social graces as one means of turning the wheels of progress with greater velocity on the upward road to equal opportunity and justice for all." – Charlotte Hawkins Brown 📚 A visionary educator and activist, Charlotte Hawkins Brown believed that education, dignity, and social refinement were powerful tools for Black advancement in the Jim Crow South. As the founder of Palmer Memorial Institute, she dedicated her life to equipping Black students with not just academic excellence but the confidence to demand respect and claim their rightful place in society. This Women’s History Month, we honor her legacy of excellence, empowerment, and justice. 💜✨ #WomensHistoryMonth #CharlotteHawkinsBrown #BlackExcellence #EducationForLiberation #NCHistory

Kentucky needs to pay attention to what is happening in North Carolina where, like in our state, there are threats posed by disinformation and anti-immigrant rhetoric in our elections, particularly from extremist politicians who are working to undermine the legitimacy of our ballots with the latest tactic of pushing “Citizen Only” amendments.
