Black History

After Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis began restricting what public schools in the state can teach about subjects such as Black history, churches rallied to fill the gap.

The religion Black Americans is featured in “Spirit in the Dark: Religion in Black Music, Activism and Popular Culture,” a new exhibition of the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture.

Hundreds of Black church leaders were surveyed for a report from the National Religious Partnership for the Environment, and a majority say Black history is not told adequately through national and local parks.

While some evangelical leaders have taken Black History Month as an opportunity to decry wokeness in the American culture and church, others are urging Christians to see the month as an opportunity for learning and growth.

“Almost all my understanding of what made America great is because of efforts and the work ethic of people like me,” Matt Chandler says in a video addressing white privilege in America.
