Many remember the killing of HipHop artist and business leader Nipsey Hussle. Set to buy properties centered around Crenshaw Blvd, while at the same time creating the "Marathon" and "Crenshaw" Brand, Nipsey had made his way onto the mainstream charts as a prolific rapper. After his televised murder, the City of Los Angeles held a memorial parade for Hussle starting at Staples Center ending in South Central. However, few know that Nipsey Hussle was a valued member of the Historic Los Angeles Athletic Club at the time of his passing.

Public transportation is invaluable to our infrastructure, and Metro has a long list of solid plans in the works to ensure our commuters travel safely and get to where they need to be. Metro buses, trains, bikes, and scooters run regularly throughout our City's Core. However, few know that Metro Chief Executive Officer is a black woman named Stephanie Wiggins. Few may know, While Wiggins may be the first Black woman to serve in this role at Metro, she has been on the tracks for a while, formally serving as the CEO of Metrolink before changing routes to head Metro.

Keri Freeman is the publisher of Downtown Weekly and the second African American female publisher of a newsprint publication downtown since Charlotta Bass' California Eagle first hit the stands at Grand Central Market. However, few would know that Freeman's first name means "black" in Celtic and her motto is, "Where There is a Will, There is a Way"… Happy Black History Month DTLA.
