Timberly

6/19/2015

 
"Working at Slave Haven Underground Railroad Museum was my first job in high school. I substitute now for Shelby County Schools, but I still work here in the summers. I'm always learning more about African-American history, and I enjoy sharing the information with people. I have two sons who need to know their heritage too, but I can't teach them unless I know it.

"I'm also an actress and working on starting my own film company. I want to be able to tell stories of African-American women from non-stereotypical perspectives. It's important that those inside a culture tell the stories of that culture. Not that others can't do some of that, but there's an authenticity to first-hand experience versus outside views."
