Virginia Hamilton was born on the March 12th, 1936 in Yellow Springs Ohio and passed away on the February 19, 2002. She was born into a family of storytellers and from a young age was told the stories from her grandfather who was born into slavery and escaped via the underground railroad. 

Virginia Hamilton, is a name I quickly came to know as a young child.

My first introduction to her work is not the book you would think. My mother read to me The House of Dies Drear.  Listen to the episode to hear my reaction & thoughts of my introduction to her great literary works.

You thought I was going to say:  The People Could Fly: American Black Folktales, right? I mean that only seems natural. It’s the perfect book, aimed at young children.

A few years later, her book titled Many Thousand Gone entered my home library and a few years after that Her Stories: African American Folktales, Fairy Tales, and True Tales.

Many of her novels are highly recommended reading for children and young adult. Here is a link to several of her books on Amazon. Be a good person and share her work with your loved ones.

What’s up, it’s your Hokage Haneef. For Day 5 of our 29 Days of Blackness, I wanted to talk about Cree Summer.

Like many of us children of the 80s, we were first introduced to Cree as Freddie in the TV sitcom “Different World” but what some of us may not have known was that by the time that show aired, she was already an accomplished voice actor. Her earliest known role was in 1983 as the original voice of Penny in the Inspector Gadget cartoon. For the next 37 years she’s been in our lives, giving life to some of our favorite characters.

To say Cree Summer is talented is vastly understating her abilities. She is one of the few, if not the only one (I may have to do a deep dive online to find out) to say they are part of the DC/Marvel/Disney/Starwars/Jim Henson/Transformers/Voltron universes.

Check out the audio to hear me do a deeper dive into all that is Cree Summer

Representation is everything. When was the first time you saw yourself in art? Lady K recalls the impact that this had on her.

During this Black History Month (also known as February) we will be celebrating the many (known and not so well known) contributions we have made to pop culture for #TheCulture.
