Two of the coldest that ever did it!

so i posted this yesterday but it was somehow hidden from my followers and only a handful could see it. which only means ig is watching me again smh. so im reposting, i got this from @drjennpsych. so if black history month isn't for biracials, i don't want to see anyone utter a word about any of these history makers, and these are just a small example. we tend to get a lot of flack this month, especially if we don't look like we "belong". we aren't enough or we aren't black at all. we can only celebrate til the 14th blah blah blah. do you have the gall to say this to these figures? also while looking up history making black biracials i saw that the most popular figure is actually mixed as well! can you guess who they are??? ill try to make a post revealing who later. #mixedgirlproblems #bhm #barackobama #kamalaharris #tigerwoods #jimihendrix #edmonialewis #rosaparks #martinlutherkingjr #jamesbrown #maryellenpleasant #robertpurvis (at Black History Month) https://www.instagram.com/p/CocyuP4u9LN/?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=
