. A Black spy saved George Washington’s life, helped win the Revolutionary War, and still had to buy his freedom. If America really loved Black history, James Armistead Lafayette would have his own blockbuster spy movie by now. Instead, we get another reboot of Batman. #BlackHISTORY

Did you know that back in 1947, a journalist named Orrin C. Evans and his brother, George J. Evans Jr., made history by launching All Negro Comics Inc. in Philadelphia? It was the first Black-owned comic book publishing company in the U.S.! #blackhistory

The Six Triple Eight. Absolutely Oscar worthy. A march so powerful I cried like a baby. #BlackHistory
Image from the movie The Six Triple Eight. Front of photo shows the back of Kerri Washington, standing atop, speaking to the 6888 battalion standing in front of her. 5 rows of women, with lines so long the women are disappearing into the background. The women are standing between rows of airplane hangers, rows of fighter jets are seen in the very back of the image.
Photo of The 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, also known as the "Six Triple Eight". Members of the Battalion in a May 1945 parade honoring Joan of Arc where she had been burned at the stake. The 6888 CPD Battalion was a predominantly Black battalion of the US Women's Army Corps. The battalion's mission was to clear a backlog of mail bags that filled hangars in Birmingham, England. The women's motto was "No mail, low morale". The battalion's mission was to label, sort, and clear millions of pieces of mail, including letters, photographs, and gifts

Mary Mahoney (b. #OTD in 1845): First African American to graduate from a professional nursing school (1879) & earn a nursing license in the US. + Co-founder, Nat'l Assn of Colored Graduate Nurses, 1908 + One of the first women in Boston to register to vote in 1920 (19A) #WomenInSTEM #blackhistory
A formal, black-and-white studio portrait of Mary Eliza Mahoney (1845–1926), the first African American to graduate from a professional nursing school in the U.S. and a co-founder of the National Association of Colored Graduate Nurses. Captured from the shoulders up, Mahoney faces forward with a serene yet resolute expression, her gaze steady and intelligent. She is dressed in her professional nursing attire, featuring a crisp, high-collared white blouse adorned with a large, dark-patterned silk bow at the neck. Her dark hair is topped with a traditional pleated white nurse’s cap trimmed with a thin black ribbon. The composition is centered against a soft, mottled neutral background, creating a mood of profound dignity and quiet strength.
