Join us as we hear about some challenging and inspiring essays that constructively frame the story of Black America—not as a tragedy involving helpless victims, but as a model for the nation. Denied access to the institutions of white America, they built their own churches, schools, hotels, and a host of other successful enterprises. Their resilience produced amazing increases in literacy, family formation, and income. Hear the story of today’s unsung grassroots leaders who are the living evidence of the power of resilience. They use their stories of overcoming adversity and their own fallibility to help others. The organizations they create heal their communities.
