HAMPTON ROADS, VA—He's a white guy who has an affinity for sharing black history, and he's been on an HBCU Homecoming tour this season. George Sedberry, Jr. goes by the nickname @TheWhitGeorge on social media, where he often shares unknown historical facts about Black Americans on his platforms, and he has more than 500,000 followers paying attention.
George was just in Hampton Roads, taking in Hampton University's homecoming, and stopped by Norfolk State to post a segment online.
He even attended The Battle of the Legends in Philadelphia — a nationally televised football game featuring Delaware State and Norfolk State, led by head coaches and former teammates Michael Vick and DeSean Jackson.
Coast's April Woodard found the influencer by sending him a direct message online and got to chat virtually with George.
