No one ever taught me that Adam and Eve were white, but lots of tiny details in the way it was taught definitely led me to that presupposition. In fact, many aspects of the story led me to think that being white was "normal" and if being white is "normal," then any focus or attention given to the Black experience would be celebrating something that wasn't normal. In other words, the way we talk about Adam and Eve has led many including myself to disregard or discount the experience of non-white people. I used to consider Black History Month to be itself racist. In this episode, I share briefly how I came out of that misunderstanding.
