Civil Rights Icon (Marian Anderson) with Emile J Henwood III
Manage episode 472521266 series 2987155
Most people want to change the world for the better, and I would assume nearly all of those want to be remembered for the good work they did in life. However, our subject today actually did a lot of her most notable work followed by the statement "Don't tell anyone."
Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts.
My guest today is Emile Joe Henwood III. Joe, as he likes to be called, has done the most exhaustive studies on one of our truly great civil rights leaders who has been lost to time. Marian Anderson was an African American singer, who inspired major names like Jackie Robinson and Martin Luther King Jr (MLK) before they ever approached their famous days. So why do so few people even know her name?

( https://a.co/d/9Ehbqge will take you to: Www.Amazon.Com "Remembering a Great American Hero Marian Anderson" )
Let's inspire those to follow!
And having talked about a unifier of such legendary proportions, I just want us all to come together. I don't care who you voted for, because at the end of the day I want us all to succeed. I keep hearing people screaming across both sides at how the other is stupid or failing, but there is no forward momentum in that. We should all want each other to succeed for the betterment of humankind.
In other news... March is halfway over, and here the rankings are still strange:
1. Hong Kong. Can someone in Hong Kong tell me why the sudden spike in popularity?
2. England of the United Kingdom.
3. The United States, with California, Missouri, and Washington at the top.
4. Australia, with Western Australia still at a small lead.
5. Canada, with Ontario keeping them above Israel, who is now right behind them.
That's it for this week! Have a great week, a great weekend, and I'll see you all back here next week for another new episode!
Until the next episode, pretty please do all the things to help the show: rate, review, like, and subscribe.

Most importantly, Stay Dumb!
