the first result isn’t always the one you’re looking for but when you press enter it’ll give you a ton of words related to your query that’ll probably have what you’re wanting, or something better

All of which, who wore one hat or many at the same time.

They were Black excellence. Their histories are Black excellence and we are Black excellence because they paved the way for us to be all of these things and more (much much more. One post can't fit all of what our history has to offer).

I say all this because hate does not change our history. It does not change the pain our ancestors (and those that are still with us) grew from. It does not change what they accomplished through it and what avenues they opened up for us. It does not change the paths that have been paved. We'll continue to break through barriers if we have to and we will do it in the most unapologetically Black ways.

It'll never break us.
