Unwavering Pride: Embracing Black Identity Today

James Brown used his music to uplift and empower the Black community. As the Godfather of Soul and a pioneer of funk, he influenced R&B, jazz, and rock. Amid racial tension, Brown became a cultural icon, using hits like Say It Loud – I’m Black and I’m Proud to inspire Black pride and resilience. His legacy as an artist and activist continues to echo, reminding us to honor our identity and stand strong in unity.
