À propos de cet audio

In this powerful episode of the Black Boss Ladies Platform, we honor the unsung hero of the Civil Rights Movement, Septima Poinsette Clark. Known as the "Mother of the Movement," Clark's journey from a dedicated teacher in segregated South Carolina to a revolutionary force for Black liberation is a masterclass in quiet resilience and strategic brilliance. We explore her pioneering work with the Citizenship Schools, a grassroots education program that taught Black adults how to read and write, not just for literacy, but to pass the voter registration tests that denied them their civil rights. This is a story of how one woman's faith in the power of education became the foundation for a movement, empowering thousands of Black people to become the heroes of their own stories. Tune in to be inspired by her legacy and learn how she paved the way for generations of Black women leaders.
