Q1 - talk about contributions made, obstacles overcome, must be a part of American Hstry, familiarize yourself with the struggle and how we got here today - we miss the sacrifices made if we don't share the contributions we've made - very important to know your own history; they were strong and strategic Q2 - they had a vision/perseverance/staying power/kept their eyes on the prize/had guts and a driving force beyond what they could do and they wanted to do and be better. Q3 - Two profiles ID: Captain and Construction Worker. Captain - classic case of under estimating the intelligence of Black people/Black Intellect Matters. Construction Worker - she was a strong person, successive with little funds, a woman in a male dominated job - encouraging.
