The open letter evokes the spirit of Marcus Garvey, “If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life.” “Liberate the minds of men and ultimately you will liberate the bodies of men.” “The Black skin is not a badge of shame, but rather a glorious symbol of national greatness.” “With confidence, you have won before you have started.”Aug 17, 2019. We depend on all media to aggregate effort to have a data-driven experience, undergirded by the teachable moment curriculum from the Digital Pathway Initiative (DPI).
Until his retirement in 1952, Victor Green was a full-time letter carrier for the U.S. Post Office five days a week. When he created the #GreenBook in 1936, he enlisted his fellow postmen to make contact with Black entrepreneurs along their routes to be listed in the guide. pic.twitter.com/7MrRADLGaL
