LEXINGTON, Ky. (Feb. 12, 2024) — As we embark on the celebration of Black History Month, it’s a profound opportunity to reflect on the extraordinary contributions and resilience of the Black community throughout history. This month serves as a dedicated time to honor the trailblazers, activists, artists and leaders who have shaped the world we live in today.
I’m fortunate to have a remarkable individual in my family, Clay Eddie Simpson Jr., Ph.D., my grandfather. Allow me to share our story.
