Black History is Our History with Rev. David Carl Olson

“Black History is Our History”

Rev. David Carl Olson

In February 1916, Dr. Carter G. Woodson led a small group of African American Historians to honor the birthdates of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln by celebrating Negro History Week. Over time, Woodson’s vision grew to the month-long celebrations of African American and Black history that we now recognize. In this story is the story of the engagement of Unitarians and Universalists devoted to freedom for all peoples.
