And here’s another one I want to listen to about Hattie McDaniel, who won an Oscar best supporting actress in Gone With the Wind. There are quite a few on back women!
I love history, especially biographies. I used to listen to the History Chicks podcast, and this reminds me of a wonderful one they did on a successful black woman who became quite wealthy. I’m forgetting her name, but I believe this was during the 20s. Now I need to find it, and listen again. And, you have inspired me to want to read more.
You are so right that learning about success is important. How does dwelling on “victim hood” help anyone? I’m not suggesting that we should ignore the bad things, but let’s not forget to learn about and celebrate the successes.
I agree. And thanks for the podcast link. Madame C. J. Walker is an American epic story. Did the History Chicks podcast stop broadcasting at some point?

Many stories out there to hear.
Exactly!
I found the podcast! There are others, but I especially enjoyed this one. The link gives a description, and that’s also interesting.

I read Emily Stimpson Chapman and on her post she had this video. It made me weep...
She was talking about dancing and having our Heavenly bodies someday.
I am LDS & she is Catholic, but I love 💗 to read her stuff.
All knowledge is good!

I wanted to add that I love your definition of the truth:
..."the teaching of history is fact-based.
The teaching of ideology and conformist thinking is manipulation based..."
