#StrikingCulture 🐍✊🏾 Happy First FAMU Friday of Black History Month Rattlers! Our history is rich and we are excited to share it with you all month long. On May 26, 1956, Wilhemina Jakes and Carrie Patterson, two Florida A&M University students, were arrested by the Tallahassee Police Department for “placing themselves in a position to incite a riot,” which led to the Tallahassee bus boycott which sought to end racial segregation in the employment and seating arrangements of city buses. #FAMU #FAMUAlumni #FAMUHistory #Since1887 #BlackHistory #AmericanHistory
