Sandy Banks offers a different "take" on Black History (originally posted 2/5/10)




"It reminded me that history depends on who's doing the telling. When I was her age, people of color were asterisks, not narrators. Tomorrow's version will depend on today's storytellers." - Sandy Banks




Dear friends,

On the link below, veteran Los Angeles Times columnist Sandy Banks provides us with a different "look" in articulating just what African American history has to offer to all of us. This is a great piece!

One Love,
G. Gjata Bumpus
