Black Men’s Firsts: William Carney

Happy Black  History Month!

All month, I’m going to bring you some “Black Men’s Firsts” — as black MEN have also led, trailblazed & overcome in some many areas and disciplines; however, much of it has been overlooked or forgotten.

Let’s make it OUR DUTY to remember the great strides our ancestors have made & make these strides motivation for ourselves today.
