The Negro Motorist Green Book

The Negro Motorist Green Book was a travel guidebook for Black Americans during the Jim Crow era. It was created to help Black motorists find safe and welcoming places to eat, sleep, and refuel while traveling through the United States. The book was first published in 1936 by Victor Hugo Green, a Black postal worker from Harlem, New York, and continued to be published until 1967. The Green Book played a significant role in helping Black Americans navigate the treacherous landscape of racism, segregation, and discrimination during the Jim Crow era.

"Act like your dream client is always watching, even though you're not there yet, or at least have that in your mind at times." - Jeremy Bell

Clark Atlanta Student finds the inspiration needed to continue pursuing a future career in the TV and Film industry in Atlanta, Georgia.

I recently had the opportunity to interview KJ Ross, a Chicago native from the Southside of the city who currently attends Clark Atlanta University, KJ is a Junior mass media arts major. When asked what was the inspiration behind him choosing CAU, "I attended a Prep School on the Southside of Chicago and they took us on a college visit and I really enjoyed it." He also let me know that he has several family members in close proximity to the institution and that made the decision to move south and pursue an education all the more easier.

We remember American Jazz Icon Dizzy Gillespie!

Dizzy Gillespie, born John Birks Gillespie, was a jazz trumpeter, bandleader, and composer known for his virtuosity and innovative style. He was one of the leading figures of the bebop movement, a style of jazz characterized by fast tempos, complex harmonies, and improvisation based on the structure of the music rather than its melody. Gillespie was known for his bent trumpet and his signature puffed cheeks while playing. He also popularized the use of "scat singing," in which a vocalist improvises nonsense syllables in place of lyrics. Gillespie had a long and successful career, collaborating with many other famous musicians and performing around the world.
