Happy Juneteenth! It became a federal holiday in 2021, but the celebration is over 150+ years old. Learn the history of this date and support black owned businesses today if you can.🩵🩵
“In order to see where we are going, we must not only remember where we have been, but we must understand where we have been.”

So there is a Martin Luther King Day but no Ella Baker Day. Remembering her is a reminder that history often celebrates voices and forgets the hands that made change possible. She didn’t just fight racism, she fought the patriarchy within the movement. Ella Baker believed leadership should come from the people not just one figurehead

“Oppressed people, if they are to become free, must themselves be the makers of their own freedom. We must build strong communities so that when the police come, they do not find us alone and vulnerable, but standing together.”

"Other organizers included Ella Baker, Bob Moses, and David Dennis Sr. Only days before the 1964 convention, Dennis gave an impassioned eulogy at the funeral of James Chaney, the Freedom Summer volunteer who was killed along with Michael Schwerner and Andrew Goodman by Ku Klux Klansmen in Philadelphia, #Mississippi.
"That violence was fresh when Hamer testified about being evicted after trying to register to vote in 1962."

A must-read. You have to get to know Ella Baker. I don’t think she gets nearly enough credit for her work, activism and influence in shaping the Black Liberation Movement of the 1960s. A phenomenal organizer and strategist, to boot. 🖤🙏🏿

"Oppressed people, whatever their level of formal education, have the ability to understand and interpret the world around them, to see the world for what it is, and move to transform it."
Happy Birthday, Ella Baker.
