DID YOU KNOW: Rick James and television star Linda Blair began dating in the fall of 1982. Blair was famous for her role in the horror film “The Exorcist.” Blair stole James' heart and the two were inseparable during the fall of 1982.

In early 1983, Blaire was pregnant with James’ child but decided to abort their baby, only informing James of the pregnancy and procedure after the fact. This led to their eventual breakup and James penning the song “Cold Blooded” on the album of the same name.
I never knew this

Maggie Lena Walker was an African American entrepreneur and civic leader who broke traditional gender and discriminatory laws by becoming the first Black woman to establish and become president of a bank in the United States—the Saint Luke Penny Savings Bank in Richmond. As of 2010, when it was known as Consolidated Bank and Trust Company, it was the oldest continually African American–operated bank in the United States. In her role as grand secretary of the Independent Order of Saint Luke, Walker also was indispensable in organizing a variety of enterprises that advanced the African American community while expanding the public role of women. Although as an African American woman in the post–Civil War South she faced social, economic, and political barriers in her life and business ventures, Walker, by encouraging investment and collective action, achieved tangible improvements for African Americans.
