Get ready for an episode that not only challenges but redefines our understanding of African American History. We question conventional wisdom, explore the controversial new slavery curriculum in Florida, and reveal unsettling perspectives on slaves benefiting from slavery. Our deep dive includes a look at the task force assembled to tackle this curriculum, notably Dr. William B Allen, professor emeritus at Michigan State University. We question the credentials of such members and their ability to shape an unbiased curriculum.
History is not just about facts; it's about the people who lived it. Our episode uncovers the resilience and creativity of enslaved Africans, their unwavering spirit of innovation, and their significant contributions to American civilization. We discuss inventions that changed the world and the brilliance of African culture that often gets overlooked. Highlighted is the book, 300 Years of African American Invention and Innovation, offering an in-depth view of our nation's innovative spirit from African American perspective.
We round off with an enlightening discussion on the importance of black history education, bringing in Reverend David, President of the Progressive National Baptist Convention. We dissect the recent changes to the slavery curriculum in different states, potential impacts on white children, and share why millions of Americans are no longer attending church. Our episode underlines the power of black-led communities, their role in educating children about their history, and the importance of creating positive black images in curricula. Get ready to be provoked, educated, and inspired.
