b'This chat goes taps into a key element of creativity, problem solving. It is with Nikki Igbo. She is the features editor at Radiant Health Magazine.\\n\\nCreativity is also problem solving, so we discussed the current unrest we are going through at the moment. But to solve problems you need \\u201cGood Data\\u201d. Nikki provided some. We talked a lot about education and making an effort to be informed. She provides resources to help further any research you would like to do. Below is what she sent in her words: \\n\\n_____________________________________________________\\n\\nFor anyone who truly wants to educate themselves on racism, its legacy and what can be done to move closer to an America (and a world) without racism, there is a wealth of information and knowledge readily available. Below you\'ll find links to some of my favorite personally-penned Black History Month posts as well as quotes of the Black creatives mentioned during our discussion. You\'ll also find information about the Anti-racism educator (and her video) I referenced. I\'ve included information on Tierra Bomba and the Charrua people of Uruguay. Finally, I\'ve included links to the National Museum of African-American history and culture and other online destinations offering tons of resources.\\n\\nMy favorite Black History Month blog posts:\\n\\nWHAT DO WATERMELONS ACTUALLY HAVE TO DO WITH US? https://nikigbo.com/2019/02/09/black-history-month-what-do-watermelons-actually-have-to-do-with-us/\\n\\nCELEBRATING BLACK VISUAL ARTISTS: JEAN MICHEL BASQUIAT https://nikigbo.com/2016/02/01/celebrating-black-visual-artists-jean-michel-basquiat/\\n\\nALL ABOUT ATLANTA: THE WASHERWOMEN STRIKE OF 1881 https://nikigbo.com/2020/02/12/all-about-atlanta-the-washerwomen-strike-of-1881/\\n\\nIn every human Breast, God has implanted a Principle, which we call Love of Freedom; it is impatient of Oppression, and pants for Deliverance. - Phyllis Wheatley http://www.pwacleveland.org\\n\\nIt is from the blues that all that may be called American music derives its most distinctive characteristic.- James Weldon Johnson https://www.jamesweldonjohnson.org\\n\\nIt is your responsibility to change society if you think of yourself as an educated person. - James Baldwin http://www.iamnotyournegrofilm.com\\n\\nPrejudice is a burden that confuses the past, threatens the future and renders the present inaccessible. - Maya Angelou https://www.mayaangelou.com\\n\\nWhenever I see an opportunity and a chance to change something, I go at it and I lay out all the facts to everybody.
