The Breathtaking Courage of Harriet Tubman

As I have said previously, Harriet Tubman has always been an inspiration for me, from the time my mother first told me about her when I was a little girl.  

The above film gives us a glimpse of how amazing and remarkable she was.  

For wisdom from Harriet Tubman, go here for Geniuses of Transformation:  Wisdom from Harriet Tubman, and go here to see my short film, Harriet.  Her courage was truly breathtaking.

The Black Man Who Attends Klan Rallies


I am sure you have heard about Spike Lee's new film, BlacKkKlansman.

In this TED talk, Daryl Davis talks about forming a friendship with a Klan leader.  He didn't do it because it was his job. Unlike Ron Stallworth, the author of BlacK Klansman: A Memoir and subject of Spike Lee's film, Daryl Davis was not an undercover police officer.  

Davis was fascinated with finding out how, and why, people hate others whom they don't even know.  So he approached the Klan. 

This TED talk shows that true friendship can form between people who come from conflicting ideologies, even the white supremacist ideology of the Klan. 

Daryl Davis has proven that, although we stronngly disagree, we can have mutual respect for one another.  And we can connect with, and form friendships with, anyone.
