Black History is World History
#HouseHistory: Alumnus Leroy Howard Milton Haynes ’35 opened the first American restaurant in Paris - and in Europe - named “Gabby and Hayes” in 1949. Haynes was an All-American football player for Morehouse and a member of the Psi Chapter of Omega Psi Phi. After graduating, Haynes served in the U.S. Army from 1946 to 1949 and soon after opened Gabby & Haynes. Haynes became a cultural architect, shaping a hub of Black excellence with his second venture, Chez Haynes, in 1969. This establishment not only served delectable African American soul food but also became the epicenter of Black culture in Paris. The popular restaurant was frequented by the likes of Richard Wright, James Baldwin, and Cab Calloway to name a few. After passing in 1986, Haynes’ restaurant operated until 2009. #BlackHistoryMonth #MorehouseHistory #MorehouseisEverywhere #WellTraveled

In 1957, Marlon Green, a skilled Air Force pilot, applied to work as a pilot for Continental Airlines. Unfortunately, despite having more flight time than other white candidates, Green was not hired. Why? Because he was Black. Green refused to accept this injustice and took his case to the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Commission, where he won a landmark case that ultimately reached the United States Supreme Court. This ruling was a turning point in the American passenger airline industry, as it helped to dismantle racial discrimination. While David Harris was the first Black pilot hired by a major airline, Marlon Green's fight for equality paved the way for generations of Black pilots to come. In recognition of his contribution to the industry, Continental dedicated a 737 aircraft in his name, which still flies for United today as N77518. Let us continue to honor Marlon Green's legacy by striving for a more inclusive and equitable society. #MarlonGreen #Equality #DiversityandInclusion #AirlineIndustry #unitedairlines #blackhistory #blackhistorymonth2024

It's inspiring to see women, especially women of color, being trusted with significant responsibilities that impact the lives of many. We must celebrate our progress and continue pushing for more diversity and inclusivity in leadership positions. The U.S. military, one of the world's largest employers, has put its trust in the hands of a woman, particularly a woman of color. If they can do it, so can the rest of the world. Let's work towards a future where diversity and inclusion are the norm in all leadership positions. #diversityandinclusioninitiatives #diversityandinclusion #leadership #womeninleadership #womenofcolor #itistimetoinnovate
