Ash Said It® Daily

What better way to celebrate National Women’s History Month than with an eye opening thought provoking documentary. Twenty Pearls: The Story of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® closely examines the founding and legacy of the first Black sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated®, which is now regarded as one of the most significant and influential Black organizations in history. Award winning filmmaker Deb Riley Draper gave Ash Brown exclusive insight on how this project started, who was involved and what she wants viewers to get from this project.Through narration, interviews and rarely seen archival materials, viewers will see the sorority’s impact on World War II, NASA, Civil Rights, Women’s Rights and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) culminating in the historic election of America’s First Black and South Asian Woman Vice President.Twenty Pearls premieres Friday, March 26th on Comcast’s newly-launched Black Experience on Xfinity Channel, and will be available on-demand
