In his 2001 book, "The Devil You Know: A Black Power Manifesto," New York Times columnist Charles M. Blow wrote about the Great Migration (in which six million Black Americans in the early to mid-20th century moved from the South to the North and West seeking greater economic and political opportunities) and called for a "reverse migration" back to the South, where Black Americans would once again be the majority. He talks about expanding that thesis into the new HBO documentary, "South to Black Power."
At 26, Navajo artist Naiomi Glasses is passing down generations of a rich Native American tradition of weaving through her collaboration with Ralph Lauren, by becoming the fashion house's first artist-in-residence.

A Phoenix elementary school teacher who uses Steve Hartman's inspirational stories as lessons in kindness and character made a huge impression on his students with the tale of Secret Santa, a wealthy, anonymous businessman who annually gives out hundreds of $100 bills to strangers.
