J A ROGERS AND CARTER G WOODSON
J.A. Rogers and Carter G. Woodson have proven that there is more than one way to skin a cat! Both men have provided amazing examples of historical rigor and business acumen, by being able to unearth great historical truths about black people, ancient and modern, and to publish them, themselves !
Rogers had no degree; Woodson was a Harvard Ph.D. These men worked during the pre-Civil Rights era when Jim Crow prevailed, when times were presumably tougher than they are now.
I salute these brothers and thank them for blessing me everyday !
