[Thread] So, it took having to do a search on the website, but I managed to find the #BlackHistoryMonth audio archives on the #WMPG website. Hopefully, the ones from 2025 will also be posted on their website (and the ones already posted won't disappear...).

Today, we reflect on the legacy of #NelsonMandela, who passed away #onthisday in 2013.

In 1994, just months after becoming South Africa’s first democratically elected president, Mandela spoke at Howard University’s Commencement Convocation, where he was awarded an honorary doctorate of laws degree. In his speech, Mandela celebrated the transformative power of education, acknowledging Howard’s historic contributions to progress.
