Ever wonder how words shape history? ✨ Let's honor literary giants this Black History Month:

• Ralph Ellison — Broke barriers with "Invisible Man"
• Octavia Butler — Sci-fi pioneer
• Ida B. Wells — Anti-lynching crusader

Their words spark change. Who inspires you? #BlackHistoryMonth #LiteraryIcons

In 2026, the "erasure" of Black queer voices is a major digital theme. Claude McKay is often categorized solely as a "protest poet."
