Happy New Month! This Black History Month, let’s honor these historical women who put themselves out there for change. Maya Angelou used her pen to amplify Black voices, Harriet Tubman fought for freedom and women’s suffrage, and Fannie Lou Hamer stood up for racial and gender justice. Let’s continue their legacy and speak up! #BlackHistoryMonth #WomenOfImpact #SpeakUp
