“The fabric of this country has Black and Brown threads woven all throughout; from pre-slavery African culture, to the horrors of captivity and subjugation, all the way to and through rising from bondage to transcendent accomplishments. It's important to learn both so that we can move towards healing, restoration and continued pride and growth.“

Alexander Hitchens

“Black history is American history. You can't say you know the history of America without learning Black history and how the history of America continues to affect Black Americans.“
