michaelabrewer+FollowAtlanta’s Firefighting Trailblazer RememberedAtlanta just said goodbye to a true legend—William Hamer, the city’s first Black fire chief. Back in 1985, he broke barriers and took the helm, pushing for real change and inclusiveness in the fire department. People are remembering him not just for his leadership, but for standing up to discrimination and fighting for justice. His legacy? Pure inspiration for anyone who believes in progress and equality. #News #AtlantaHistory #Trailblazer00Share
Ryan Wilkinson+FollowRemembering Big Jim: Golf’s Unsung HeroGolf fans, we lost a true legend this week—Big Jim Dent, the original bomber off the tee and a trailblazer for Black golfers, passed away at 85. Dent wasn’t just a Champions Tour beast with 12 wins after 50; he broke barriers for HBCU athletes and helped open doors for guys like Tiger. The timing is wild, too—news came just after Tiger announced his new course at The Patch, Dent’s old stomping grounds. Dent’s kindness and legacy live on, both in the record books and in the hearts of those who knew him. #JimDent #GolfLegend #Trailblazer #HBCU #PGAChampions #GolfHistory #Sports00Share
