-Here is today’s moment in Black History…
Tribal, Lemonade, Box, and Locs are a few of the braiding styles we see at Glenview, but did you know that in many African tribes, braided hairstyles were a unique way to identify each tribe? Braid patterns and hairstyles were an indication of a person’s tribe, age, marital status, wealth, power, and religion. Braiding was and is a social art. Remarkably, Black women used braids for another important use: a secret messaging system for slaves to communicate with one another. People used braids as a map to freedom. Black hair is beautiful in many ways and the Illinois Jett Hawkins Act was signed in 2021 protecting students and their hairstyles that are rich in history and culture.

-Here is our moment in Black History…
Many people learn about Rosa Parks fighting for desegregation on a Montgomery, Alabama bus—but they may not learn about Claudette Colvin, a young girl who did it before Parks. In 1955, at just 15 years old, she stayed seated and refused to move to the back of the bus for a White passenger. She was arrested but it was the first step towards the Montgomery Boycott. Young people are history makers too!
