Let your children learn about the beginning of civilization with Imhotep, the devastation of the slave trade and the heroic efforts to fight it through Nzinga, then learn about “Moses,” Harriet Tubman, as she made 19 trips into the cauldron of the south to lead her people to freedom and hear her incessant calls to President Lincoln, telling him that the Civil War was bigger than saving the union–it was about ending slavery. Next come up to the 20th century and read along as Dr. Charles Drew explains his growth from athlete to surgeon and scientist, as he begins to create breakthroughs with blood plasma and the modern day blood bank. Next listen to Malcolm X as he re-purposes his life from the dead end streets to leader and champion in fighting discrimination. Finally listen to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as he explains his philosophy, and why it led him to criticize America’s role in Vietnam. Hear him describe his mountaintop experience, prophesizing that African-Americans will continue to rise in America.
