FEBRUARY IS BLACK HISTORY MONTH!
We all know about the struggles of African Americans, and how some became famous because they fought for the rights of Blacks. Like MLK, Malcolm X, W.E.B. DuBois, and Harriet Tubman. But we also have African Americans who also tried to change the world like singer Billie Holiday, now Oprah, Maya Angelou, Angela Davis (mostly protect African Americans) and lots more wonderful African Americans.
To celebrate BLACK HISTORY MONTH I'm making a list of African American icons today for the oppurtunities they have given blacks and for their fashion sense!
first the beautiful Eartha Kitt what she was is all in the name she was the first ever African American to play the role of the fierce kitty cat catwoman
!
Then There's the talented Josephine Baker, dancer, singer, actress from the 60's(did I get the chance to mention she was famous in France and became a citizen...how cool is that, it's just ugh)
One of my
fav's apart from Chanel Iman and Iman there's Pat Cleveland the first ever African American model to be recognized world wide and here's why!
Now today we have lots more African Americans doing things because we have broken through the barrier but we still havent gotten there... but were on our way!
