Mama Her Story of Lifelong Activism
Mama Nozipo Glenn is well known and loved in the city of Dayton, Ohio. She has spent her life educating and empowering black people about our rich history which is not taught in American school systems. She is seen at countless events fighting for her community. She is a pillar in the community and her beautiful photos are displayed throughout the city from billboards to busses. She is lovingly known as Mama Nozipo because of her genuine mother’s love that she has for everyone in her community and around the world. The discussion on Black Excellence would be incomplete without us gleaning wisdom from our elders. With this in mind, I called Mama Nozipo to request an interview and without hesitation she immediately agreed. We met on a sunny afternoon. We walked and talked throughout the park and I must say that I left our meeting empowered and with an increased sense of pride as a black woman.
Here is just a small portion of the endless wisdom that she has to share.
