How do faith, dignity, self-respect, and inter generational land stewardship inform both survival and freedom?

In celebration of Black August and the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act, this episode focuses on the Safe House Black History Museum in Greensboro, AL.

In Greensboro, AL, stands a house that once shielded Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. from the deadly threats of the Ku Klux Klan on March 21st, 1968, two weeks before his assassination in Memphis, Tennessee. Today, the Safe House Black History Museums honors the everyday foot soldiers of the movement and their sacrifices in the struggle for freedom.

Executive Director Rev. Kervin Jones joins us to discuss preserving the unique culture and history of Alabama's Black belt, honoring the unsung foot soldiers of the movement, confronting the lingering traumas of Jim Crow, and the continuing fight for land retention and freedom.

This episode is dedicated to the work and memory of museum founder Theresa Turner Burroughs (1928-2019).
