ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY, in 1776, George Washington wrote a letter to an extraordinary young woman from his military headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The recipient was Phillis Wheatley, an enslaved woman in her early 20s who was already acquiring a reputation as a talented poet. . Wheatley, taken from her home in West Africa before the age of ten, was the property of a Boston tailor and his wife, who permitted her the education that allowed her talents to flourish. In 1773 her work was published as “Poems on Various Subjects, Religious and Moral.” . Wheatley was fearless, writing to several luminaries, including General Washington. In her October 1775 letter she enclosed a poem paying tribute to his qualities: “Fam’d for thy valour, for thy virtues more, Hear every tongue thy guardian aid implore!” . Washington wrote back on February 28: “I thank you most sincerely for your polite notice of me, in the elegant Lines you enclosed; and however undeserving I may be of such encomium and panegyrick, the style and manner exhibit a striking proof of your great poetical Talents.” . “I would have published the Poem,” Washington continued, “had I not been apprehensive, that, while I only meant to give the World this new instance of your genius, I might have incurred the imputation of Vanity.” . The general ended with an invitation for the poet to visit him at his headquarters (known today as the Longfellow House). Unconfirmed stories claim she was able to take him up on his offer in March. In any case, it was a fascinating correspondence which has invited a variety of interpretations (in particular for insights on Washington’s attitudes about race and slavery). . Wheatley’s fame continued to spread. Back in Williamsburg, the Virginia Gazette published the poem by the “African poetess” in the March 30 issue. Sometime in the 1770s Wheatley gained her freedom and married a grocer named John Peters. But they lost three children, and Phillis died in 1784 at about the age of 31. . . . . #OTD #colonialwilliamsburg #visitwilliamsburg #visitvirginia #williamsburgva #dukeofgloucesterstreet #livinghistory #blackhistorymonth #blackhistorymonth2019 #untoldstories

Hello everyone! Here is a moment in Black History with Serenity! Last year she learned the names of 15 black leaders and has been inspired to learn more about them ever since. Although she is studying them all, this year she showed an interest in learning about 7 of the 15 leaders, specifically the fearless black women! She said she could see herself in each one of them. In this video she wants to share her favorite quotes by them! These pioneering black women along with MANY others have indelible legacies and have inspired 3 year old Reny to be bold, beautiful, to think outside of the box, learn as much as she can and to persevere. *The longer video is on Reny’s Facebook page.

Another moment in Black History brought to us by World News Now. The mansion once owned by America’s first woman millionaire, Madam C.J. Walker, is now being converted into a think tank for female entrepreneurs of color by business mogul Richelieu Dennis.
