Nelsan Ellis was the best actor on that show, he had the best lines and Lafayette was my favorite character on True Blood. We didn't have enough time to enjoy him. I miss him.

68 years ago today, on July 6, 1957, Althea Gibson became the first Black player to win at #Wimbledon . She turned in a dominant performance that lasted just 50 minutes. Cannot wait to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Althea breaking the color barrier at the 1950 U.S.

You can’t talk about Jackson or Mississippi or Gospel Music or Music or BLACK music without naming the great Mosie Burks. Rest in Peace to this legend! “When I Rose This Morning” recorded live at Jackson State University in 1996 was a cultural moment.

On this day in 1944, Lieutenant and baseball legend, Jackie Robinson boarded an Army bus and refused to sit at the back of the bus because of his race. This led to a court martial & he was prohibited from being deployed overseas, thus he never saw combat action. THREAD
