This touching family photograph from 1927 captures a two-year-old Cicely Tyson, surrounded by her parents, William and Fredericka Tyson, and her siblings, Melrose and Emily. Long before she became a trailblazing actress and cultural icon, Cicely’s early years were deeply shaped by the love and support of her family. Born in Harlem, New York, to Caribbean immigrants, the Tyson family represented resilience, determination, and the pursuit of opportunity in the face of societal challenges during the early 20th century.
Cicely’s parents worked tirelessly to provide for their children, instilling strong values of discipline, perseverance, and faith. The warmth captured in this image reflects the foundation of love and unity that defined her upbringing. Harlem in the 1920s was a thriving cultural hub, brimming with art, music, and activism during the Harlem Renaissance. Growing up in this vibrant environment undoubtedly influenced Cicely’s future path, as she embraced her heritage and used her platform to tell stories that celebrated Black identity and culture.
This family portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the humble beginnings of one of the most celebrated actresses of her generation. Cicely Tyson would go on to redefine how Black women were portrayed in film and television, earning accolades for her powerful performances and dedication to uplifting her community. Her journey from these early family moments to a career of immense impact stands as a testament to the importance of a loving and supportive foundation. It’s within this environment that Cicely Tyson’s extraordinary legacy began, rooted in family, love, and a determination to inspire change...

History of the Maasai people in Kenya

The Maasai originated in the lower Nile Valley and migrated south in the 15th century, settling in southern Kenya and northern Tanzania around 1750 CE. Their territory expanded in the 19th century to cover much of the Great Rift Valley. Known for their colorful dress and warrior skills, the Maasai traditionally relied on cattle herding for sustenance. However, urbanization and the establishment of game reserves have reduced their grazing lands, leading to a more sedentary lifestyle that includes farming and purchasing food....

📷 Rarely Visited Temple of Amenhotep II
Tucked away at the 9th and 10th pylons of Karnak, the Temple of Amenhotep II is a hidden gem often missed by visitors 🇪🇬🏛️. Built to commemorate his jubilation (Heb-Sed festival), this lesser-known structure offers a quieter glimpse into Karnak’s vast history.

Though smaller than other temples on the site, its significance lies in its connection to Amenhotep II’s reign and the enduring tradition of royal festivals. The remains here hold subtle beauty – carvings, inscriptions, and traces of the grandeur that once celebrated a pharaoh’s strength and renewal ✨.

If you’re exploring Karnak, take the time to wander to this overlooked corner. It’s worth a visit for those who want to uncover more of ancient Egypt’s untold stories 🌟.

Black American History 🇺🇸
Preely Coleman, who had been born into slavery, at the age of 85 in Tyler, 1935. Preely was born in 1852 in New Berry, South Carolina, but he and his mother were sold and brought to Texas when Preely was only one month old. They settled near Alto, where Preely lived most of his life. Here's what he had to say, preserved in his own voice by the WPA:
"I'm Preely Coleman and I never gits tired of talking. Yes, ma'am, it am Juneteenth, but I'm home, 'cause I'm too old now to go on them celerabrations. Where was I born? I knows that 'zactly, 'cause my mammy tells me that a thousand times. I was born down on the old Souba place, in South Carolina, 'bout ten mile from New Berry. My mammy belonged to the Souba family, but its a fact one of the Souba boys was my pappy and so the Soubas sells my mammy to Bob and Dan Lewis and they brung us to Texas 'long with a big bunch of other slaves. Mammy tells me it was a full month 'fore they gits to Alto, their new home.
"When I was a chile I has a purty good time, 'cause there was plenty chillen on the plantation. We had the big races. Durin' the war the sojers stops by on the way to Mansfield, in Louisiana, to git somethin' to eat and stay all night, and then's when we had the races. There was a mulberry tree we'd run to and we'd line up and the sojers would say, 'Now the first one to slap that tree gits a quarter,' and I nearly allus gits there first. I made plenty quarters slappin' that old mulberry tree!
"So the chillen gits into their heads to fix me, 'cause I wins all the quarters. They throws a rope over my head and started draggin down the road, and down the hill, and I was nigh 'bout choked to death. My only friend was Billy and he was a-fightin', tryin' to git me loose. They was goin' to throw me in the big spring at the foot of that hill, but we meets Capt. Berryman, a white man, and he took his knife and cut the rope from my neck and took me by the heels and so**ed me up and down in the spring
