On this day in Black history, March 24th:

In 1874, educator and activist Mary McLeod Bethune was born in Mayesville, South Carolina. She founded the National Council of Negro Women and was appointed as a special advisor on minority affairs by President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

In 1958, Elvis Presley was inducted into the US Army in Memphis, Tennessee. While he was serving, his music continued to be popular and he had several hits, including "Hard Headed Woman" and "A Big Hunk o' Love."

In 1989, the Exxon Valdez oil tanker spilled approximately 11 million gallons of crude oil into Alaska's Prince William Sound, causing one of the worst environmental disasters in US history. The cleanup efforts took years, and the effects of the spill are still being felt today.

These are just a few examples of notable events that happened on March 24th in Black history and beyond.

ME: Give me a bio of Mary Mcleod Bethune

ChatGPT:

Mary McLeod Bethune (1875-1955) was an American educator, civil rights leader, and government official who devoted her life to promoting education and equal opportunities for African Americans and women.

Born in South Carolina to parents who had been enslaved, Bethune was one of 17 children and grew up in poverty. Despite these challenges, she was determined to get an education and worked hard to earn a scholarship to attend Scotia Seminary in North Carolina. After graduation, she taught at Haines Institute in Augusta, Georgia, before moving to Florida to found her own school, the Daytona Educational and Industrial Training School for Negro Girls, in 1904.

Under Bethune's leadership, the school grew and evolved into Bethune-Cookman University, which still exists today. In addition to her work as an educator, Bethune was also a prominent civil rights leader. She served as president of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs from 1924 to 1928, and was appointed as a special advisor to President Franklin D. Roosevelt on issues related to minority affairs.

During World War II, Bethune was also a key figure in the National Youth Administration, working to promote employment and education opportunities for young people, especially those from marginalized communities. She continued to work for civil rights and social justice throughout her life, and was honored with numerous awards and accolades, including being the first African American woman to have a statue erected in her honor in a public park in Washington, D.C.

Today we honor and celebrate a great man & leader in the civil rights movement. Here is just one quote MLK said and I personally love it and try to live by everyday; Whatever your life's work is, do it well.

👇Below are some tips on how to observe Martin Luther King Jr. and Civil Rights Day: — Make Martin Luther King Jr. Day more than just a day off. Take time to both understand and support civil rights and the issues facing communities of color. MLK and his contemporaries did a lot for the advancement of civil rights, but there is still much to be done. ⚖️ — Creating dialogue and having discussions about racial injustice is important.

5 December 1956 Harry Belafonte, Coretta Scott King & Duke Ellington First anniversary of the Montgomery Boycott 💕💚……… “I am often identified as the widow of Martin Luther King Jr.,” she said some years ago. “Sometimes, I am also identified as a civil rights leader or a human rights activist. While these designations are factually correct, I would also like to be thought of as a complex, three-dimensional, flesh-and-blood human being with a rich storehouse of experiences, much like everyone else, yet unique in my own way ... much like everyone else.” #AlphaPhiAlpha #APhiA1906 #AlphaKappaAlpha #AKA1908 #PhiBetaSigma #PBS1914 #MontgomeryBusBoycott #CivilRights #CivilRightsMovement #CivilRightsLeaders https://www.instagram.com/p/CeZQyaqL-Rb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
