One of the original Civil Rights Activists, Robert Woodson eschewed race-baiting and grievance hustling in favor of real solutions. He’s as inspiring as he is wise. He is the Founder and President of the Woodson Center, 1776 Unites, and Voices of Black Mothers United. He is, in short, a national treasure.
