## Resource

On A Bowl of Soul we celebrate February is Black History Month. Before the entire month of February was called Black History Month, in 1926, the second week of February was called Negro History Week, by the Father of Black History, Carter G. Woodson who founded the Association for the study of African American Life and History. We celebrate Black History with some Classic Soul and New R&B from Maggie Ray and Jill Scott. Also, we celebrate our new ancestors, Richard Smallwood and Demond Wilson who passed away in January. We also celebrate the life of Claudette Colvin who on March 2, 1955, was arrested at the age of 15 in Montgomery, Alabama, for refusing to give up her seat to a white woman on a crowded, segregated bus which sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott. I hope you enjoy this broadcast because I had fun creating it. In this month, let it be filled with love, joy, hope and good music!!! Keep it locked with A Bowl of Soul A Mixed Stew of Soul Music. My condolences to the family of Alex Pretti who was tragically killed in Minneapolis by ICE agents.
