Black America: 10 Years of Truth, Triumph & Transformation | Black America

Описание: For ten years, Black America has told our stories and helped shape the conversation about our future. From celebrating the opening of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, to visiting Birmingham, Alabama and exploring the historic A.G. Gaston Motel where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. strategized during the Civil Rights Movement — we have witnessed history and honored legacy.

We’ve engaged in powerful conversations with filmmakers, physicians, thought leaders, and barrier-breaking history makers who continue to influence where we are today in Black America.

In this special commemorative edition, hosted by Carol Jenkins, we look back at the moments that moved us, the voices that inspired us, and the vision that continues to guide us forward.
