Day 1 - James Weldon Johnson James Weldon Johnson was a civil rights activist, writer, composer, politician, educator and lawyer, as well as one of the leading figures in the creation and development of the Harlem Renaissance.  After graduating from Atlanta University, Johnson worked as a principal in a grammar school, founded a newspaper, The Daily American, and became the first African American to pass the Florida Bar. Not long after, in 1900, James and his brother, John, wrote the song "Lift Every Voice and Sing," which would later become the official anthem of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. (The Johnson brothers would go on to write more than 200 songs for the #broadway musical stage.) In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt appointed James Weldon Johnson to diplomatic positions in Venezuela and Nicaragua. Upon his return in 1914, Johnson became involved with the @naacp , and by 1920, was serving as chief executive of the organization. Also during this period, he became known as one of the leading figures in the creation and development of the African American artistic community known as the #Harlem Renaissance. #Music #Credit: @dtatemusic #blackhistorymonth #Day1 #EverythangCulture #Podcast #Black #Excellence #Honor #Remember #Learn #Listen #Grow #Unity #CivilRights #Culture #Heritage #Leaders #Education #Art #Love #MusicCultureMonday https://www.instagram.com/p/CKx23qOJm9a/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

James Joseph Brown, Aka the Hardest Working Man in Show Business, Aka Godfather of Soul, Aka Mr. Dynamite, Aka Soul Brother No. 1 Passed away Christmas Day 2006 James Brown born May 3rd, 1933 in Barnwell, NC, is arguably the most influential artist in our modern day culture. With the hit ballads "Please, Please, Please" and "Try Me", Brown built a reputation as a dynamic live performer with the Famous Flames and his backing band, sometimes known as the James Brown Band or the James Brown Orchestra. His success peaked in the 1960s with the live album Live at the Apollo and hit singles such as "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag", "I Got You (I Feel Good)" and "It's a Man's Man's Man's World". Brown's main social activism was in preserving the need for education among youths, influenced by his own troubled childhood and his being forced to drop out of the seventh grade for wearing "insufficient clothes". Due to heavy dropout rates in the 1960s, Brown released the pro-education song, "Don't Be a Drop-Out". Royalties of the song were donated to dropout-prevention charity programs. #everythangculture #doesnotownrightstomusic #jamesbrown https://www.instagram.com/p/CmnoJkFuRuk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Takanakuy: A Peruvian Christmas tradition of fist fighting with family & friends. #Takanakuy is a centuries old, annual established practice of fighting fellow community members held on 25 December, by the inhabitants of Chumbivilcas Province, near Cuzco in Peru. Don't think this tradition is only for the men. Women and children participate as well, often while hundreds of spectators watch. Just because the practice may seem a little barbaric, it doesn't mean it's NHB. There are rules: - No biting or kicking a grounded opponent. - There is always a referee figure equipped with a whip to keep things on the up and up, but hey, it's a colorful whip, so if you're on the receiving end of some lashings, at least your eyes will be treated to some color. - Local police are on standby in case things get out of hand. Despite the violent nature of the celebration, it is considered a joyous festival, with music, dance and not surprisingly, lots of alcoholic beverages. There is even a uniform of sorts, traditional belts with colorful ski masks and sometimes, stuffed animals worn as hats. @21savage they still throwing hand in #peru #everythangculture https://www.instagram.com/p/CmnLOuhJEdL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
