Black History is American History ft. Gizette Knight

  • Summary

  • Thanks for listening to the unsilent church podcast. In this episode, we have the privilege of holding a conversation with Gizette Knight, founder of the Black History Matters mural project that showcases key leaders in history who have contributed to American History in ways often overlooked. When I say the names Robert Smalls, Carter G. Woodson, or W.E.B. DuBois, Charles Harrison Mason, Richard Allen, Lemuel Haynes, Dorothy Vaughn, Percy Julian, Louis Latimer, and Otis Boykin. So much of Black History has falls through the cracks. Though it’s a necessity to call it Black History, people often forget that as it pertains to what Black people have contributed to America, it is indeed American history. From authors, military leaders, inventors, rocket scientists and pastors, Black men and women have been critical to the development of America as a nation. That’s what the Black History Matters Mural Project is all about. Gizette gives us the context of what led to its birth and how much work there’s still left to do. We talk about this and more on this episode of the Unsilent Church. Enjoy.
