BlackFacts.com launches Black Fact Of The Day™ Podcast and Inspiring Black Women Video Series

BlackFact.com celebrates Women's History Month with a daily podcast celebrating Black History Facts and a video series celebrating inspiring Black Women.

BOSTON, MA, USA, March 15, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The first day of Women’s History Month 2021 marked the launch of the Black Fact Of The Day™ podcast, a daily digest of audio stories recalling remarkable African American women who made history and changed the course of history. From Ida B. Wells who, although born into slavery, went onto become an investigative journalist and co-found the NAACP, to unstoppable voting rights advocate Fannie Lou Hamer, to the first Black woman to win an Olympic gold medal Alice Coachman Davis, to the resilience of Claudette Colvin and Rosa Parks who both defied Jim Crow transportation bias and launch a movement and more, Black women continue to make history. Actually, Black history has been made every day of the calendar year. The website BlackFacts.com is the source for both Black women’s history and African American history—thus, American history—on a daily basis. These facts are now available as a podcast across all available platforms.

After piloting a video-per-day Black history project that launched during Kwanzaa 2020, BlackFacts.com partnered with journalists and hosts Nicole Franklin and Bryant Monteilh of the podcast Before You Go to launch the Black Fact Of The Day™ podcast in time for Women’s History Month. The series Before You Go features first-hand accounts of 100-year-old guests and their contributions to history either known or soon-to-be known.
