On this day in 1955, Rosa Parks refused to surrender her seat—and changed the course of history. Her steadfast courage reshaped our nation and still calls us to stand up, speak out, and fight for justice and equality every single day.

In all the challenges of each day, what we do with TIME is important. Some moments are about enjoying the sweetest things in life. Like Denzel and Whitney.

Every holiday season, I watch as many versions of this film classic story as I can, from 1935 to Bill Murray's version. If I can watch Capt. Picard be Scrooge, I wanna see the pirate give it a try.😉
So yeah, I wanna see it.

Many dismissed her run for the presidency in 1972 as little more than a farce, but no one told Shirley Chisholm. Born today in 1924, Chisholm (a Congresswoman from New York) ran a credible, principled campaign for the Democratic nomination – her slogan: “Unbought & Unbossed.” Chisholm died in 2005.

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home was released on this day (Nov 28) in 1986. The film had originally been planned for release in mid-December. The studio believed this would allow it to maximize earnings because the film would be in theaters during the Christmas holiday.

The rising unemployment rate among Black women is a five-alarm fire.
It is a crisis for Black women, Black families, and Black futures—and a glaring red flag for our economy.
