S5E9: The Complex History of Black People with Dr. Candice Harrison

Cultivating H.E.R. Space: Uplifting Conversations for the Black Woman

Lady, we know that Black History IS American History 365 (well, 366 if it’s a leap year, lol). Today Terri and Dom are joined in conversation with historian, Dr. Candice Harrison.

The ladies discuss what fuels Candice’s passion for history; the work she is doing at the University of San Francisco; where we can find accurate information about our history; how she processes all the trauma and beauty of history; and who are the unsung heroes we should acknowledge.

Grab a glass of your favorite beverage (Hello sweet tea! We see you wine!) and join the ladies on the couch for this laughter-filled informative conversation.

 

Quote of the Day:

"You can tell a great deal about a country and a people by what they deem important enough to remember, to create moments for — what they put in their museum and what they celebrate." - Lonnie Bunch, Founding Director, The National Museum of African American History and Culture
