After building Winrock Farms, Winthrop appointed Hudson as general superintendent of the operation, contravening the segregated racial hierarchy of the time. Hudson was later a founding trustee of what is today the @wrfound.

As you're trick-or-treating this #Halloween, remember: some houses won't be giving out candy & that's ok! There may be several reasons, but ALICE households may not have the $$ or may not be home to give out treats, since they often work 2+ jobs to make ends meet. #UnitedForALICE
