February is Black History Month. In observance, this month we’re taking a look at what African-American leaders throughout history have said about the importance of service to others. There will be a new entry each week. Hope you find them as inspirational as we do
It’s so clear that you have to cherish everyone. I think that’s what I get from these older black women, that every soul is to be cherished, that every flower is to bloom.
