My father.
One of the first books he ever taught me to read was this
He made sure when we as kids wanted reading material we had access to THESE
He taught us about African Culture and African American history and our status as the original human beings. He showed us movies like Roots, Sankofa, Malcolm X, and Documentaries like Eyes On The Prize, all before the age of 12. He made SURE that any GI Joe or action figure I wanted was the black version (same for my sisters with barbies and dolls)
He made each of me and my siblings read these books and write him a book report
When I grew older and had a love for Fantasy, instead of Lord Of a The rings he brought me this
My father didn't play when it came to is having pride in ourselves and our heritage.
I love my pops
