🌟 Remembering Mary Kenner 🌟

Today, we celebrate the incredible contributions of Mary Beatrice Davidson Kenner, born in Monroe, NC on May 17, 1912. A true pioneer and inventor, Mary created innovative solutions for women’s health, including the adjustable sanitary belt, a game-changer for menstrual care.

Despite facing discrimination in her field, Mary held five patents and inspired many with her resilience and creativity. Her legacy reminds us of the significant impact of African American inventors.

Let’s honor her memory by recognizing the importance of innovation and inclusivity in our communities! ❤️✨

Did you know on this day in American History...

Just the facts:

"Witnesses reported that a number of white men circled the Baker house at night, set the building on fire, and fired up to 100 bullets at the house while Mr. and Mrs. Baker and their six children were inside. Mr. Baker was shot to death while trying to escape the burning house. As Mrs. Baker fled the burning house carrying Julia, the baby was shot dead in her mother’s arms."
