I didn't always love history because I never saw my family in it. Once I started learning how to do research & about the works of historians & authors who wrote African Americans into American history in a truthful & meaningful way, it has intrigued me since! #history #family

It’s taken a few years to bring this film to fruition, but we did it. We reunited a family that was separated by slavery & brought them back to their SC roots! It’s an amazing story! We’re in post production, but we’re almost done! @coalpowered @SCHumanities #Documentary #family

I just saw this sign in my neighbor’s yard, and it gave me the chuckle that I needed today! #wutang #comicrelief #elections

Me, when I’m filming in a few weeks and the DNA tests people took over a month ago still say “pending!” #DNA #genealogy #research #oralhistory

This year’s @TxOralHist Conference at @PVAMU was awesome. It was a pleasure to present at the conference, and the other presenters and the keynote speakers were so good! I left there feeling like I found my people! I look forward to next year’s conference! #history #storytelling

Kumbaya was a "call and response" song that that was sung with great passion! It was a call to action, not the more understated version most known by the masses today. #Gullah #history #music #ancestors #SC

Don’t sleep on local archives. Working with @ClarendonSCgov archive is one of the best experiences I’ve ever had! Their team is thorough & helpful, & it’s clear that they are passionate about preserving their community’s history! #research #Genealogy #antebellumdiasporaproject

Within 2 weeks of finding her father using DNA, my sister-in-law met him for the first time. For years, they've been searching for each other. And just like that, she has given him 2 beautiful grandchildren and he has filled a hole in her heart that she never imagined possible.

Me talking to my young adults in their 20s about the imaginary & historical references in @kendricklamar’ s latest diss track. My son: Clearly Kendrick has won because my GenX, praises team leading, oral historian mom just initiated a conversation with me about They Not Like Us!

It’s a pretty stressful time in the world right now, so I was elated last week when my neighbor walked across the street to my house to say “thank you!” She said she walks past my little flower garden every day and it makes her feel happy! #garden #gardener # outside #flowers

Happy Juneteenth! Fannie Lou Hamer said, “Nobody's free until everybody's free!" Emancipation descendants, let our children know that slavery didn't define our ancestors. We are the children of survivors!" #junteenth #freedom #ancestors #antebellumdiasporaproject

There’s lots of Bridgerton merch, but I don’t think the item I want actually exists, so I’m going to speak it into existence! I want a Bridgerton chess set. The queens would have a Queen Charlotte hair style. All other pieces would be dressed in their finery! #Bridgerton #chess

I had the distinct honor of nominating @therealopallee for an honorary doctorate degree from SMU. It’s her 8th. She participated in 3 days of activities on campus, inspiring us with her wisdom & charging us to care about our communities & the most vulnerable people in them. #MVP
