I was so nervous waiting for the piece on @CBSSunday to air that when it did I was so full of gratitude & relief that I cried. Below is the entire story, 6 mins long. If you don't have that kind of time, fast forward to 4:43. youtube.com/watch?v=h3zkd0Zw…#elsierobinson#listenworld
After being bumped by @TheMasters, the segment featuring American trailblazer #ElsieRobinson will air this Sunday, April 30 on @CBSSunday. Now, 6 million more people will learn Elsie Robinson’s name. An inspiring badass who deserves to be remembered!

Update!! I’ve heard from the producer at @CBSSunday. It’s not impossible for the piece to still air. We’ll know soon. I never dreamed the segment would be preempted by @TheMasters, but if it had to happen, I’m lucky these humans were by my side. #ElsieRobinson#ListenWorld#CBS
When you’ve gathered friends for a watch party in your pj’s…and @CBSSunday is preempted by @TheMasters..and you’re so disappointed..but you’ve been through much worse..and you realize how lucky you are, no matter what. Will update on new airdate soon! #Masters2023#ListenWorld

Christmas from 100 years ago! 🎄 Before #ElsieRobinson became famous for her @Hearst syndicated column, "Listen, World!," she was "Aunt Elsie" for the @OakTribNews. This coloring page was published 12/24/22. Notice the upside down images. Print it out. It works! #ListenWorld
Profound tx @sunny for asking the most intelligent & insightful questions during our event at @NYPLSNFL. The consequences for girls..when a culture undervalues the contributions of women..are real. And I'm stunned by what Sunny said about #ListenWorld! being made into a movie!
My gift to you this holiday season is to help you get your book published. 📚🎉 Before #ListenWorld! was reviewed in the NYT, Wash Post, and WSJ, it was just an idea. Learn how "Team Elsie" did it. This @AuthorsGuild event is FREE and open to all.

Have you ever wondered what makes you remarkable? My philosophy is simple: listening. On December 8th, join me in support of International Day of Persons with Disabilities at this @iamremarkable_ session.

ALT Image description: A white square background with a couple of brush stroke style wavy purple lines for texture, and with text and two photos cropped into circular shapes, advertising the upcoming Dame Evelyn Glennie – Listen World session of I Am Remarkable. Top left text in dark grey and black fonts says “# I AM Remarkable supports”, followed by text in purple which says “International Day of Persons with Disabilities”. Underneath that and aligned left to the square, in a larger font, text in black says “Dame Evelyn Glennie – Listen World”. There is a swished purple line, under which text in a black font continues, and says “Dame Evelyn Glennie, Hosted by Vint Cerf, Thursday 8th December, 4pm – 5pm GMT”. To the right are two separate circular images of Evelyn and Vint. Evelyn is slightly to the right and Vint is slightly to the left. Both are clear head-shot photos where they are facing the camera.
Waking up to this! Thank you @nytimesbooks@GlynnMacN for this glorious review of #ListenWorld. “One does not tire of spending time with #ElsieRobinson, nor stop wondering how many other women, with equally compelling tales, have also been lost to history.” #womenshistory
